one word "Money"

#

soon to be called something else

pale quartz
#

not the days of the 1990's, finding out the root core to a problem is unintentionally trying to navigate 50 different software stacks, and the average person has always been stupid nevermind having the technical knowhow to know where to begin

humble iris
#

the 90's was a struggle, the 80's though. yeah,

#

for sure

#

nothing just worked ever. it required motivation for the smallest task

#

dip switches, and shunts

pale quartz
#

which is why standardisation became the norm, as much as people like to "reminisce" about people trying to understand an issue, this has really never been the case

#

and was always a false idea of nostalgia

#

even the most hardcore of c developers didnt know shit about half the stuff they worked with, and couldnt be bothered to find out either

humble iris
#

By the way, I'm not arguing with you, I'm enjoying the conversation

pale quartz
#

yeah for sure

#

things never really changed since then, we just made ways to be able to dissect automated discovery, because people are lazy

humble iris
#

Oh and programmers could not design a UI to save their life.

#

nowadays just press here, we'll take care of everything

pale quartz
#

oh yeah they definitely still cant

humble iris
#

lol..

pale quartz
#

ask me, or someone else to make a raw CSS website from scratch youll get laughed at

humble iris
#

I think I always tried to make a straight forward interface, easy and to the point

#

Of course I'm old PERL and forgot most of that

pale quartz
#

even the most straightforward interfaces needed mountains of code back in the day for functionality we consider standard today

#

case of scalability with user interactions

humble iris
#

What is the "Urban" role by the way?

pale quartz
#

its one of the colours from the regular role

#

you get to pick colours if you boost or get the regular role

humble iris
#

Ahh okay, that's kool

pale quartz
#

yeah selection of 3 colours, youll see other users with it

humble iris
#

I was just looking at your profile cause the color was different.

pale quartz
#

yeah theres orange and green aswell, youll see people with them too

humble iris
#

I should get a special role for playing Battlefield games for 16 years

#

or more

pale quartz
#

lol if only

#

half the server would probably qualify for it

humble iris
#

lol.. yeah bunch of old people play BF games, probably why I'm as good as I am, and that's not saying much.

#

My Brother JD_Havoc <^> will not play anything past BC2. I still love that one

#

Wow Battlelog is still there

humble iris
#

Has anyone been able to fully saturate a PCIeX16 3.0/4.0/5.0 bandwidth with a modern GPU?

#

I have never gone 50% of x16 3.0 with a 2080.

#

or any software suggestions for monitoring or testing it?

lofty light
#

I thought Gamersnexus were able to get to the limit of 3.0 with two RTX Volta cards in SLI

humble iris
#

is that x8/x8 or x16/x16 ?

lofty light
#

Na it was with the 20 series and from memory it was 16/16

#

May have been something they off hand mentioned after an overclocking Livestream

humble iris
#

I didn't know 3Mark had a PCIe benchmark

limpid onyx
#

I just bought bf5 and I am facing cheaters almost every single game and it's ruining the experience So will dice do anything about it ?

proud trellis
#

when is the Nvidia broadcast ?

pale quartz
#

aka an hour after AMDs one starts

#

can't wait for Nvidia to announce the space heater 3090ti!

proud trellis
#

or is that to far away to talk about rn

pale quartz
#

too far away

proud trellis
#

ahh

pale quartz
#

they might talk about it briefly but there will be nothing concrete

toxic wigeon
#

So the b550 is backwards compatible, correct?

#

Cause i'm just running all around in my head about this stuff

#

So Am5 as far as we know, Will not be backwards compatible? You can't just shove a 5600x into it and expect it to work?

pale quartz
#

backwards compatible right to Zen 1

pale quartz
toxic wigeon
#

Oh so this will be a completely new set

pale quartz
#

correct

toxic wigeon
#

Completely completely new

#

Rip me

pale quartz
#

AMD are moving over to LGA so the pins won't even be on the CPU anymore

toxic wigeon
#

Should i be able to stick ddr4 into the new mobo?

pale quartz
#

you won't be able to

#

AM5 is DDR5 only

toxic wigeon
#

Shiiiit

quick locust
#

laptop cpus

#

🤔

#

rdna in laptops, nice

#

most of this is 💤

ionic seal
#

I'm so glad

ionic seal
pale quartz
#

what would you expect

#

DDR4 and ddr5 cross compatibility is a total technical nightmare

toxic wigeon
#

Being completely honest I'm more concerned about the Scalpers at this point

raw turtle
pale quartz
#

been known for a couple of months lol

raw turtle
#

and DDR5 only?

pale quartz
#

yes

raw turtle
#

that doesn’t seem right

pale quartz
#

uhm, it does seem right, because AM5 is a new chipset design

raw turtle
#

not even intel can take advantage of ddr5 really which is why there’s support for both

pale quartz
#

no, they can, which is why they do

#

don't believe me it doesn't matter AMDs laptop that just got announced at CES is DDR5 only

raw turtle
#

i know it’s possible but the switch to LGA makes no sense for AMD

pale quartz
#

...

#

you clearly don't know why LGA is used lol

raw turtle
#

what else is it used for?

pale quartz
#

because we've had system builders literally getting their pins bent because of AMDs current pin layout

#

which is why LGA is being switched over to

#

as I said

prime jasper
#

But LGA is Intel…

#

🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮

#

I would’ve preferred more pins

#

and even more fragile

raw turtle
#

AMD is officially FUCKED

#

well for a while that is

pale quartz
#

uh, yeah no lol

raw turtle
#

shitty performance compared to alder lake and DDR5 only

pale quartz
#

almost as if you have no clue the 5800x 3D is coming out

pale quartz
#

better get used to it

prime jasper
#

DDR5 will have matured more by the end of this year

#

only makes sense

raw turtle
#

oh that’s 7000

#

i’m blind

prime jasper
#

Did you think 5800X3D was DDR5 only

raw turtle
#

Who knows lmao

#

well now we do but

prime jasper
#

how would that even work with the motherboards

pale quartz
#

it wouldnt

raw turtle
#

they’d switch it just do get their foot in the door

prime jasper
#

A motherboard that only supports the 5800X3D

pale quartz
#

Zen 3 can't function with ddr5

#

that's impossible

raw turtle
pale quartz
#

no?

#

you have some wack conspiracy theories the IMC is literally responsible for the infinity fabric

prime jasper
#

can’t they just give everyone a 7950x for $200, cancel all of the other products

#

🙄

raw turtle
#

forgot they were announcing zen3d today and went into zen 5

#

hopefully ddr5 production isn’t chocked by 2023

#

and i doubt zen 3d will hold them off considering the minimal performance “gains”

#

they had -2% on CS GO lmaoooo

pale quartz
#

Zen 4, not Zen 5

prime jasper
#

Zen 5 won’t happen because Zen 4 is so good

#

they’ll never do another gen!

#

Zen4D

raw turtle
#

their zen code names are already weird enough

prisma anvil
#

Yall actually think zen 3D can beat alderlake 🤣

#

Also glad amd is moving to lga

#

Pins on cpu is disgusting

#

My friend's prebuilt company hates it sooo much

raw turtle
#

i never had an issue with PGA but there’s nothing wrong with moving to LGA either, if anything it makes it better

prisma anvil
#

Zen4 I am hyped tho

#

Not sure about DDR5 only but I respect it

pale quartz
#

pretty convincing as is

#

if you think cache can't boost performance by 15% you don't know why cache is so important to games

prime jasper
#

AMD is known to kind of cherry pick results, pretty sure they usually tend to pick games that already favor AMD heavily

prisma anvil
#

Of course

pale quartz
#

sure like all companies

#

at least they're half honest

prime jasper
#

Half honest

#

Surprised Forza horizon 5 isn’t there

prisma anvil
#

And max oc alderlake runs circle around current 10th gen and amd Zen3

pale quartz
#

yeah, their Zen 2 and Zen 3 charts were in line with what benchmarks found out

pale quartz
prime jasper
pale quartz
#

nobody wants 400 watts of consumption on their processor

prisma anvil
#

Not much as alderlake is more efficient than zen3

prime jasper
#

Runs circles is also a big overstatement

pale quartz
#

it's not

#

ADL is less efficient than Zen 3 lol

prisma anvil
#

It's more lol

prime jasper
#

ah Yes

#

Good rebuttal

prisma anvil
#

Intel removed powerlimit pl1 because every mobo company cheats

#

So pl1=pl2

pale quartz
#

idk if you actually looked at any single core integer clock rates but if you did you would see ADL is less efficient than Zen 3

raw turtle
pale quartz
#

that's not up for dispute

prisma anvil
#

That's why it draws 241W

pale quartz
#

yeah gotta love drawing as much power as a 2080 on a processor

#

the e cores are horrendous for efficiency I'm not even sure why you're bringing this up

prisma anvil
#

Let me enable pbo2 on zen3 draws 250+W

#

And yes I tested it

pale quartz
#

no it won't actually

#

PBO2 with fan curve reduces wattage loads lol

#

and nothing but a 5900x and above draws that amount even with unlocked limits

prisma anvil
#

Pbo2 first setting is PPT

#

U are gonna put that at 105W?

#

Pls do.

#

🤣

prime jasper
pale quartz
#

PBO2 has 3 modes lol

#

auto manual and motherboard

prisma anvil
#

I know lol

pale quartz
#

you don't need to define PPT values yourself

prisma anvil
#

Why not?

#

Most mobo max them anyways

pale quartz
#

because its already clocked in by PBO2 automatically

#

PBO has a max wattage limit it has for ages now

#

to bypass it you need to manually define the values

prisma anvil
#

Alot of Motherboard bypass that

#

Just like how they cheat on Intel

pale quartz
#

yeah, just not on auto

prime jasper
#

Gamers are such nerds holy shit, just use the CPU with factory settings. Maybe use curve optimizer to lower temps, but that’s about it.

Hot take if you unironically OC your cpu into having a 400w wattage you are out of your mind and should probably just find another hobby

prisma anvil
#

Esp the high end ones

pale quartz
#

factory settings actually not that advisable tbh

prisma anvil
#

Yeah I'll let a 5950X only draw up to 105W

prime jasper
#

yeah idk, tiny adjustments

pale quartz
#

nah

prisma anvil
#

And complain about how low fps I get in bf2042

pale quartz
#

factory settings is a hard wall limit, you unlock them if you're half competent about performance

prime jasper
#

5950x isn’t even a gaming CPU

pale quartz
#

?

prisma anvil
#

?

pale quartz
#

yes it is lol

prisma anvil
#

This guy lol

prime jasper
#

Maybe if you’re trying to run BF2042 twice at the same time yeah

prisma anvil
#

I'll see real benchmark and see if zen 3d truly wins

#

Matter of time before I test one myself

prime jasper
#

if you get a 5950x for gaming you’re a bit ridiculous

pale quartz
#

you won't be able to run 2 simultaneous sessions of 2042 on a 5950x lol

prime jasper
#

But hey that’s my opinion

prisma anvil
#

Shout-out to my friends prebuilt company

pale quartz
#

it's a gaming processor

near rune
#

battlefield 2042 isnt the only game out there

pale quartz
#

all of AMDs ryzen processors are gaming centered

#

this isn't a threadripper

#

or epyc

prime jasper
#

Isn’t the 5900x faster than the 5950x in most games

pale quartz
#

no

prime jasper
#

But Google says so

pale quartz
#

the 5900x loses because of multi core scaling

#

it has a higher base single point clock, but it doesn't matter

prisma anvil
#

Google says so

#

Bruh

near rune
#

when your running all cores your clock speed doesnt hit the max anyway

prisma anvil
#

Also pbo2 oc is frustrating as hell

#

Intel u set a load line calibration, voltage, clock speed, then u do a stress test and ur gaming.

pale quartz
#

etc

prisma anvil
#

I ain't got time to core cycler bs

pale quartz
#

just assign fmax core you get 95% of what you need easiest job

prisma anvil
#

Yeah that's what I do

prime jasper
prisma anvil
#

I don't even touch the curve optimizer

pale quartz
#

yeah it is a tiny difference, it still loses lol

prime jasper
#

by 1 fps

#

sick

pale quartz
#

yeah and the point was multicore scaling exists

#

if you can't be bothered listening don't contribute

prime jasper
#

lol

pale quartz
#

you can but like

prisma anvil
#

I know

pale quartz
#

it's 5 degrees max thermal delta tops so meh

prisma anvil
#

5600X can take co well. 3/6 I tested can do - 30 all core with +200mhz boost

#

Was pretty impressive actually

pale quartz
#

I haven't seen how fmax interacts with per core bins on the curve optimiser, I'll need to test it at some point

#

probably highly unstable

#

my best bet

prisma anvil
#

5600X base clock is low that's why

pale quartz
#

-30?

#

quite impressive

prisma anvil
#

Yeah 5900X and 5950X I encountered can't post at - 5 all

#

And I give up

pale quartz
#

if I go over -15 I get corruption af on my 5900x

#

-10 works

prisma anvil
#

I ain't wasting time

#

That's actually really good

pale quartz
#

I allowed an unlock of 200 on the single core, think it went to 5.15@76? iirc

#

not bad, for a gold bin anyways

prisma anvil
#

That's impressive

#

All my friends silicone lottery are garbo

The benchmark makes me laugh lol

#

Nice suite of game tested lol

#

AMD is playing fair, surprised to see a Far Cry game, those usually benefit from Intel more

prisma anvil

Stop the fan boy lol.

pale quartz
#

Nvidias presentation is so shit

prisma anvil

Yes

pale quartz
#

how the fuck do they screw this up so bad

#

NOTHING on the 3090ti either

Nvidia announcement is a joke

pale quartz

Later this months...

#

Bruh

#

We know its a meme card already

latent light
#

Why is there only a Ryzen 7 3D

prisma anvil
#

Because zen4 is pretty close

#

Real reason is prob no point in doing every lineup 3D when it loses to alderlake

#

Jk

pale quartz
#

5900x and 5950x 3d will come out aswell most likely

prisma anvil
#

I think only ryzen 7 3D makes sense. 8 cores and not 2 ccx

pale quartz
#

you'd be mistaken, the original prototype was on a 5950x for 3d cache

prisma anvil
#

I do wish they release more 3D tho

latent light
#

Original 3D prototype was a 12-core

prisma anvil
#

I want my friend to go from 3900X to 5900X 3D

pale quartz
#

it was the 5950x, was already confirmed by AMD

prisma anvil
#

If it exist

latent light
#

Weird

prisma anvil
#

Moore's law said all zen3 are built to have 3D cache

#

But they can't get the yield and don't need to etc

pale quartz
#

he's right, partly

#

3d cache on a 5600x and below makes no sense just by a scalability factor

prisma anvil
#

I see.

pale quartz
#

need to max out the core scaling first to see the gains from cache

prisma anvil
#

He also said zen2 had proto on 3D cache as well

pale quartz
#

the TSV models for Zen 2 did exist internally

prisma anvil
#

Makes sense

pale quartz
#

they were never understandably shown, they've been working on getting 3d cache integrated for a while now

latent light
#

3D cache benefits gaming more than productivity?

pale quartz
#

yes

#

by a lot

prisma anvil
#

Yeah

pale quartz
#

Zen 2 on stacked cache turned out terrible it's why it got scrapped

latent light
#

Wonder how Milan-X multi-thread perf is up to 50% faster than Milan while having same core count then

pale quartz
#

the XT models were supposed to be 3d stacked

but they never got them stable

it's coming though

latent light
#

Zen 4 prototype CPU was running 5 GHz all-core in the Halo Infinite demo

humble iris
#

5800X3D looks like a winner.

#

And of course 12400

#

not so sure a 3050 has a place though as Ray Tracing and DLSS will gimp it's performance.

quick locust
#

i wonder about 6500xt

humble iris
#

3050 would be okay, but Ray Tracing will gimp it. That's why 16-Series made since. not sure how AMD's Ray Tracing will perform.

#

6500XT 4GB ??

quick locust
#

Yeah

#

Will be rekt in AAA games cause of vram

humble iris
#

Good budget card though

latent light
#

It's gonna rely on FSR

#

Being only 4GB it won't attract miners but you won't be able to play 1080p games at ultra settings

#

$199 MSRP but I know actual price gonna double because scalpers

#

RTX 3050 is $249 MSRP and has 8GB

main glacier
#

250 cheap

#

imagine the rtx 2xxx

#

Real price

#

would be like 150

#

its the price of a gtx 1050 at the moment

latent light
#

Where is 3050Ti

prisma anvil
#

"msrp"

#

🤣

prisma anvil
#

And when the review came out look what happened.

#

I'll wait.

#

I think it's still a winner for anyone on zen2

#

Unless you are doing multithreaded workload.

prisma anvil
#

12700 using 65W power limit tied 5800X in cinebench

prisma anvil
#

Not to mention in testing suite they did a 65W power limited 12700 tied 5800X in gaming.

#

Where is the zen3 power efficient gang at?

latent light
#

Those CPUs aren't even from the same generation so I don't get your point

prisma anvil
#

My point is alderlake is more power efficient than zen3

#

Knew that since the beginning

#

Get what's the best for each task. Don't fanboy.

#

And speculate

latent light
#

You're the only fanboy I've seen here for a while

prisma anvil
#

I shutdown all the intel fanboy back then when zen3 launched

#

That's you. You posted about amd everyday claiming it's faster while tested nothing

latent light
#

Not many care about fine tuning their CPU and RAM

prisma anvil
#

Good. So get the 12700

latent light
#

If the new Ryzen 7 is better than a new i9 in gaming then why should I

prisma anvil
#

That's literally what I told every intel user who don't oc to get the zen3 because it's faster out of the box

#

Literally a year ago

#

Now intel has temporarily win. I am not gonna downplay

#

Stop the fanboy and speculation.

#

U didn't know how much I crapped on 11th gen.

#

Sorry to the 11th gen user I help tuned on this discord.

prisma anvil
#

Wait till real benchmarks

#

If zen 3D is faster id 100% recommend

latent light
#

AMD has confidence to show only the 8-core SKU beating Intel 12th gen

prisma anvil
#

Who told you that?

#

Amd insider?

latent light
#

Did you watch the presentation at all

prisma anvil
#

Yes.

latent light
#

5800X3D is the 8-core sku

prisma anvil
#

I watched the 6700xt presentation as well

#

Did you watch that?

latent light
#

Yeah and it was right

prisma anvil
#

I also saw the intel presentation where it shows its faster than amd in mobile by 30+% across the board

latent light
prisma anvil
#

Do I believe that? Nope

#

I also saw Nvidia say 3070 is faster than 2080ti in general. Do I believe that? Nope

latent light
#

It can be

prisma anvil
#

Yeah cherry pick results

latent light
#

Just not in memory bandwidth dependant games

prisma anvil
#

Of course

#

This is why we have independent reviewers

Any mouse, it doesn’t have to be from Apple.

but why would you use a mouse on a phone though

doesn't that kinda defeat the purpose of a touch screen

I was tempted to buy a prebuilt from bestbuy the other day, a stack of them 12700k systems with 3080ti I believe. I thought I could sell the GPU for more then the entire system cost, but I don't have the energy for that crap.

prisma anvil
#

How much is it?

humble iris
#

IIRC it was under $2000

prisma anvil
#

Damn that's actually insane

humble iris
#

I was telling my Wife I could put those on a credit card and make profit on just the GPU

prisma anvil
#

My best friend and I are doing a build and we almost did the same thing. Looking at either abs gladiator from newegg or powerspec from Microcenter

#

In the end we snipped a 3070 ftw3 ultra bundle

#

Total build is around 2500 after tax. (thanks to the 4tb of nvme and 32gb of 3600 cl14 dominator platinum)

#

He is gonna be really happy.

humble iris
#

Well maybe they were just 3060Ti for $2000 and under, or I say good deal and passed it up, could have swore they were 3080/Ti

prisma anvil
#

Excited to build this thing

humble iris
#

That's not bad price

#

2500 after tax for that system is really good

prisma anvil
#

Yeah. Especially we are getting quality components

humble iris
#

yeah much better components

prisma anvil
#

Fast ram, good aio, decent oc board, good airflow

#

Yeah it's gonna do him well

humble iris
#

hell right off the bat it's dual channel

#

these prebuilts almost always have single stick or ram

prisma anvil
#

Esp at 3600 cl14 16 16 36 we are enabling xmp and calling it a day

#

I don't love him that much to ram OC

#

🤣

humble iris
#

3600 at those timings is really good

prisma anvil
#

Oh and it's full corsair rgb vomit bling bling too

humble iris
#

I do not trust prebuilt gaming rigs, I would be more tempted to buy an office PC from HP or Dell

prisma anvil
#

I mean it can't be that bad.

#

I heard abs gladiator and power spec I personal tested are decent

lofty light
#

Depends on where you buy prebuilts from

prisma anvil
#

But as a oc and gaming enthusiasts I want the best possible for my friend

#

I didn't even utilize my other friend's prebuilt company

lofty light
#

Local stores that sell PC parts often also have their own prebuilts which are good

prisma anvil
#

Microcenter is decent. Except airflow

#

They even enable xmp for u

lofty light
#

I'd NEVER reccomend buying a big brand pre-built though

#

Like Dell or HP

humble iris
#

I got my Mom's prebuilt Legion PC from Best Buy, Ryzen 3600, GTX 1650 Super, for around 800-850, it is not bad, but the single ram is so ignorant. Mainly did it cause I needed a 1650 S for an encoder project

prisma anvil
#

Yeah soo many people I helped on this discord has single channel memory

humble iris
#

other then that, the last prebuilt I purchased was Dell E510 in 2006

prisma anvil
#

I told them u got f ed by the prebuilt company

#

🥲

lofty light
#

There's a couple companies in AUS that do great prebuilts

#

But not sure about anywhere else sadly

humble iris
#

with prebuilt it's about money, so sell cheap, and build really really cheap

prisma anvil
#

I've heard! I have an Aus friend who got a 3080 and 11900kf build for a great price a while ago

lofty light
#

I mean the 11900 is a scam CPU tbh haHAA

#

I did buy a 3070 for under 1k though

#

Prices are normally bullshit here but availability is always good

prisma anvil
#

He got it from bpctech

prisma anvil
#

But his build was still super cheap somehow

humble iris
#

I kind of feel like the entire tech market is a scam right now

prisma anvil
#

That's just fax

latent light
#

I'd rather have 12400 than 11900K

#

12400 over 5600X too

teal raven

Anyone know of a fix for the random input loss?

humble iris
humble iris
#

if the price is what it's supposed to be

#

How many lanes will the 12400 have? 16+4

#

And 5.0 so really be like 32+8

#

So 12400 will have Xe Graphics Architecture, do the other 12-series have Xe?

#

it says UHD 770

prisma anvil
#

I think all is the same

humble iris
#

If I'm reading correctly 12500-12900 have UHD 770, and 12400 will have Xe

#

RDNA2 wont arrive on desktop APUs until Q3 this year

12CU GPU at 2.4 GHz and 6+ GHz DDR5 would be pretty nice in a palm size mini PC

humble iris
#

So it seems like Intel is about to drop a Lambo engine into volkswagon

latent light
#

Xe drivers aren't that great but software overhaul is coming with Arc GPU launch

prisma anvil
#

I mean makes sense since ryzen apu been owning intel ever since

humble iris

I'm honestly intrigued by this 12400

Honestly I think the top Intel Arc GPU with take on RTX 3070Ti or even the RX 6800

Or they wasting tsmc space lol

took amd what, almost 4 years? lmao

humble iris
#

Hopefully at least drive down prices and scapling

latent light
#

5800X3D probably $499 msrp

#

3D cache is extra silicon which means 5800X3D manufacturing cost is higher than 5800X, plus R&D

raw turtle
#

500$ msrp makes sense

#

"competes" with the 12900k

#

at least that's what they say, most likely can't in real world

latent light
#

12900K multi-core performance still better

#

12700K too I'm sure but 5800X3D is being held as top gaming CPU

prisma anvil
#

You don't see people running around say intel mobile is 30% ish faster than amd mobile across the board because intel showed it

latent light
#

Like Deco said, Zen 3D needs to max out the core scaling first to see bigger gains from cache, 5900/5950X3D with 12-16 cores and 192MB will be decently faster than the 5800X3D

#

That's why AMD is confident with announcing just the 5800X3D

prisma anvil
#

Another zen3 user can't boot xmp just now

#

Bruh is 4*8 3600 cl16 that hard to run?

#

I have to manually set his timings to 3600 CL18 22 22 22 42

#

Idk what to blame. Micron ram, Asus mobo or zen3 memory controller

#

Mf jacked the voltage to 1.4v didn't work either

prisma anvil
#

Because think about it they are releasing zen4 already in 2nd half.

#

You think they will release an entire lineup right before zen4?

#

Not to mention 5800X 3D have to cut 200mhz on clock speed over 5800X

#

Also evga just dropped alot of B stock 30 series today.

#

Pricing is insane, but of course sold out in 0.1 sec

We updated bios etc as well.

#

I am scared for my best friend's build now. But we are on 2*16 so I am somewhat confident lol

humble iris
#

The one I setup is going to be 2133, cause I dont manual OC other peoples ram.

#

it was XMP 3200 on B450 Ryzen 3600 IIRC

#

XMP just would not boot

#

It was probably a Gigabyte board

#

And it's the only setup where the ram didn't work with XMP that I ever messed with, I didn't build it, it was just someone who built their own and needed help finishing it up.

prisma anvil

Yeah I've seen this happen too many time now.

#

I'm scared of 4 sticks of ram now lol

#

Should be extra scared or straight up don't do it at DDR5

is yours the second x99 version, mine is the first version

lofty light

Last time I opened up my server it was filled with dust but that mobo was fine

Mines the first

humble iris

I think the second was just m.2 slots and maybe USB/Thunderbolt rev.

lofty light
#

Yeah something like that

humble iris
#

That is slick

lofty light
#

That mobo has a 5mm metal backplate too, was one of the first

#

Whole thing is heavy and sturdy as hell

humble iris
#

mine is not near as neat

lofty light
#

Ah looks similar to the other board I had

#

Selling it with my 5820K to my sis

humble iris
#

that was good cpu, I was going to go with that and an ASUS e-ws cause it had 32 lanes with plex chips would have been 72 lanes I think, but went with this board and 5930k for 40 lanes

#

the 6950x was like $2500 when it came 2 years later, I just paid $200 and hoping it's okay

#

it was 64 lanes with either CPU + the m.2 lanes

#

You game on something different though right?

When will we be getting more news about the new ryzen cpu's? It's nice they name dropped, Sorta but bit bare at the moment.

toxic wigeon
#

First thing i see when i look up ddr5 ram is adapters for it

#

What's more dependant on your rams speed, The GPU or the CPU or both?

quick locust
#

cpu

#

your GPU has its own

#

unless you're using a 20 year old intel i740 or integrated graphics

toxic wigeon
#

lol

#

That makes a lot of sense then

#

Considering the newer gen

quick locust
#

GDDR6 is a lot higher bandwidth

#

but higher latency

#

ryzen 4700S shows it with it

#

integrated graphics can benefit a lot from higher bandwidth though

#

like on the Macbooks

toxic wigeon
#

Ye

#

Is just using a single stick of ram bad?

quick locust
#

You get half the bandwidth due to single channel

#

which can cause lower minimums

toxic wigeon
#

ye

quick locust
#

my previous laptop only supported single channel

raw turtle
#

hard to get MSRP/not worth the price

#

and barely even a performance increase

prisma anvil
#

However it helps gpu abit as well, not much

latent light
prisma anvil
#

Idk ask amd lol.

latent light
#

Also 5800X3D cache bandwidth is 1 TB/s, because 1 CCD + 1 V-cache
5900X3D bandwidth is doubled to 2 TB/s because double the dies

prisma anvil
#

Cause moore's law is dead and amd's interview with Ian cutress all hinted 5800X 3D is the only cpu.

#

They are gonna try hold off people switch to alderlake and go all out at zen4

#

Which isn't a bad strategy

#

Anyone on zen platform already I won't recommend alderlake.

latent light
#

I got B350 motherboard sadly I doubt 5800X3D will be supported unless a beta BIOS

prisma anvil
#

They are more than fine on zen3 or 5800X 3D

#

Well u can switch to alderlake or wait for zen4

I can't even afford food so I'm not buying any hardware lol

Oh GG.

Respect that took me 6 years of saving to get my current pc haha

I came from 4690k 970

I had a 4690K before too, it could OC to 5.2 GHz at 1.27v

#

That's cap

latent light
#

I sold it to friend in Norway and it died on him after a couple years on that OC

prisma anvil
#

5.2ghz on a 4690k

#

U sure?

latent light
#

Diamond bin

prisma anvil
#

I think you got the numbers wrong

#

You could be using LN2 so who knows

latent light
#

Nah I still have a Cinebench and userbenchmark run of that CPU somewhere

#

It was 240mm AIO

prisma anvil
#

I wanna see.

#

Also how does it die?

#

1.27V is not even much.

#

If u say 1.72v I'd believe you

#

That would also explain the dying part

latent light
#

There it is, friend got it to 5.25 GHz actually lol

#

He ran it like that daily then it quit working one day

#

I sold it to him for $200

#

Then I bought R5 1600

#

Then sold that for $70 and got a 1600AF for $85 new

prisma anvil
#

5.25 is impressive but the dying part is not

#

Also it's UserBenchmark which is a meme

#

I bet the voltage is not 1.27v

latent light
#

It was under 1.3v

prisma anvil
#

Then that cpu should break world records.

#

Also the user bench score. Why is the base clock wrong and the score is so low.

#

Other people are matching your score at 4.5ghz or lower

#

Did UserBenchmarks glitch and shifted the base clock and turbo clock by 0.8ghz? LOL

toxic wigeon
#

So what's so special about the 5800x3d?

#

Or, how much more effective is it over its predecessor?

#

...again, or. What makes the 3d so special, how much does it help it?

prisma anvil
#

Performance wise we have to wait for independent review.

#

As amd has to lower both base clock and boost clock speed because of the 3D V cache.

toxic wigeon
#

Ahhhh

#

I think I understand that

prisma anvil
#

Alot of L3 cache now. Which is a good thing. Zen3 has high ram latency and it's a perfect way to mask that shortcoming.

#

Very cool technology

toxic wigeon
#

Yea just did a bit of research... its confusing but I think i understand to a degree

prisma anvil
#

I think I am testing it myself hopefully when it comes out.

toxic wigeon
#

Even though we can't speak, the way it's set up looks like a good alternative for those who want a bit of extra extra life out of their am4 board

prisma anvil
#

Yep. I am recommending some of my am4 friends to get this as well.

toxic wigeon
#

I think I might wait am5 out for a while

#

Wouldn't have so much of a problem with am5 if we didn't need to use a new ram type and CPU type. I completely understand but it would be cool to stick these old pieces in and upgrade when you actually have them.

#

Cause there are gonna be tonnes of scalpers with this shit

prisma anvil
#

Hopefully ddr5 availability will be better soon.

#

My friends company said alot of shipment will happen Q1 and Q2 this year

toxic wigeon
#

Yeah, though looking at that CL type has me concerned

#

But since it's a new type of ram, maybe the latency isn't so bad

prisma anvil
#

Ddr5 is actually really good already. Somehow the latency penalty doesn't transfer to gaming like ddr4

latent light
#

Games prefer latency of hardware over bandwidth

prisma anvil
#

However you still want 5600 to 6000 with lower CL to beat 3600 cl14

latent light
#

Need DDR5-6000 CL36 to beat DDR4-3600 CL14

#

DDR5 6 GHz is way too expensive

prisma anvil
#

Yes my friend got 2*16 3600cl14 bdie kit dominator platinum cool looking ones for 220 usd

toxic wigeon
#

What's equivalent to cl16 for ddr5?

prisma anvil
#

They work really differently so we can't tell haha.

#

Esp ddr5 is on gear 2. Which cut the memory controller speed by half.

#

Idk how amd will implement their memory controller we will see.

#

Also another reason to not go ddr5 is most mobo qvl list top off at 6000 to low 6000 and alot of people are struggling to even run 6000 at lower end board.

#

Better bios in the future won't improve motherboard memory trace layout.

eager sun
#

600$ for really good DDR5 isnt even that much more expensive than "normie" DDR5 lmao

latent light
#

I'm talking gaming

#

Games care more about RAM latency than bandwidth

eager sun
#

ah yea i dont have any comparison for that at least i didnt spot it in the dc yet

#

didnt see that it was about gaming specifically

latent light
#

DDR5 getting scalped like GPUs are

eager sun
#

yep only useful if your a benchmarking guy anyway

#

i thought about getting 12th gen to bench new hardware first week but after looking at mobo and ram prices i was like nahhhhh

latent light
#

Most 12th gen users are getting DDR4 motherboards, not a good decision imo if they care about future upgrades

#

If any 12th gen user is interested in keeping the same motherboard for 2+ years, they should buy one with DDR5 support

prisma anvil
#

Most DDR5 mobo rn struggles to run over 6000.

latent light
#

So stay away from 600 series boards because low quality memory traces? restate

prisma anvil
#

So just do ddr4 for a much lower price.

#

My friends b450 cant even post 3600 cl16 4*8 on a 5600X

latent light
#

IMC probably

prisma anvil
#

Zen3 imc can't be that bad.

latent light
#

You can't guarantee that 3600 ram is going to run for 4 sticks

prisma anvil
#

I mean I won't be surprised

latent light
#

Zen 3 is guaranteed to run 3200 MHz on 4 sticks

#

If you care about reaching high RAM frequency please only use 2 sticks

prisma anvil
#

Anyways I got his ram to run 4*8 3600 CL18 stable

#

So he is running that then

latent light
#

Personally I'd take out 2 sticks lol

prisma anvil
#

He told me he is doing ram intensive stuff

#

And he want his rig look cool

#

Also board is very important for memory oc

latent light
#

Supposedly my B350 says support up to DDR4 4200 MHz OC LUL

#

Gigabyte got jokes

ionic seal
#

is Ryzen 5000 ompetitors will 12th gen intel?

prisma anvil
#

Yeah and u think current DDR5 board can post xmp with much higher speed?

#

Unless u get smth like a tachyon godlike, unify or apex

latent light
#

Buying a Z690 board with only DDR4 support, buyer's remorse will be very prominent in 2023 when DDR5 is affordable and 8 GHz

prisma anvil
#

Why?

#

What's the point of 8ghz when their board can't run that?

#

LOL

prisma anvil
#

So ur saying the best is get DDR5 board for future proof get 8ghz ram. Fail to post xmp and run it at 4800 or smth?

#

🤣

latent light
#

Probably be better to wait for 700 series boards because 600 series is apparently shit for DDR5

prisma anvil
#

This is why future proofing is kinda dumb.

#

Get ddr4 and be happy.

#

It's OK to not have the best hardware

#

If you are enjoying the fps or stuff you are doing. You are good.

#

Unless you are that rich guy asking for 3090ti already

#

Then u do u

latent light
#

DDR5 is gonna be way faster than DDR4 in gaming once manufacturing matures and the timings come down and the clocks go up

prisma anvil
#

Thanks captain obvious.

latent light
#

I wouldn't limit myself to DDR4 if I was buying 12th gen right now because I always plan on keeping a motherboard for 3 years or more

#

Considering LGA1700 supports more than 2 generations, more than previous sockets, I would go with DDR5 support

prisma anvil
#

Ur motherboard memory trace won't get any better over time. It's not wine.

#

The best option rn is still ddr4 unless u have ddr5 readily available and you have alot of money to spend on a good board.

latent light
#

You know for sure it's the motherboard traces and not CPU IMC

prisma anvil
#

Yes. Because people can clock up to near 7000 already on hynix ic

#

On good boards

#

Lower tier board can't even pass 6000 alot of the time.

latent light
#

Could also be an issue stemming from the DDR5 modules themself, it's a new memory standard after all

prisma anvil
#

It could but u are wasting alot of money for taking that sliver of chance lol

# ionic seal zen 3 is 3600 right?

The “zen” names are super confusing

Ryzen 1000 = Zen
Ryzen 2000 = Zen +
Ryzen 3000 = Zen 2
Ryzen 4000 = mobile and OEM only, not given a code name
Ryzen 5000 = Zen 3
UNRELEASED
Ryzen 6000 = Skipped for whatever reason (probably due to Zen 3 chips with 3D V cache replacing it)
Ryzen 7000 = Zen 4

Yes I've confirmed both versions of Minecraft are playable through Xbox App/GamePass I own the Microsoft version, but not the Java version, but it is included with Gamepass.

ryzen 5000d is technically zen3 basically

#

i could have mentioned it but they are close enough

humble iris
#

yeah

#

actually you did mention it in the 6000

Ryzen 6000 is mobile only so far, but it seems like Zen 3+ cores will arrive with desktop APUs in late summer

Bruh

#

3090ti equivalent of cpu

#

I am hyped for AM5 tho.

#

Can't wait to test them out.

#

Wish is not a pain in the butt to OC like zen3.

humble iris
#

5950XT3DX getting to many to many variants

#

Some people getting CPUs and GPUs mixed up

#

Ryzen 7000 gonna have a heat spreader design

lunar dawn
#

and its gonna have a socket similar to 12th gen probably

#

I have not installed an AMD CPU since AM3+, does AM4 still have pins? or gold pads.

latent light
humble iris
#

Yeah AM4 is still using pins instead of pads

lunar dawn
#

its very similar to lga 1700

latent light
#

Close to the same pin count

#

1718 vs 1700

lunar dawn
#

the shape of the ihs is weird fron what i saw

humble iris
#

LGA is Land Grid (Pads) PGA is pins

lunar dawn
#

pga is just the opposite

humble iris
#

yes

latent light
#

IHS, or heatspreader, design is kinda tacky but it's to greatly differentiate it from Intel CPUs and it might have some benefit to cooling

humble iris
#

but LGA sets on top of the pins like springs, not male-female locking

#

I like intel better, I just dealt with a PGA cpu with burnt and bent pins, it was a user error though.

I have pics, but cant send them here

Epyc Genoa Zen 4 CPU

#

96 cores

#

1.2 GB total cache

prisma anvil
#

Big CHUNGUS!

latent light
#

That's like 40% bigger than current Epyc CPUs

#

TDP is 400 watts

humble iris
#

Epyc really is epic

#

I guess Zen 4 will actually be LGA

#

Acording to Anthony @ Ltt

lunar dawn
#

that was like 2008 i think

humble iris
#

I have intel CPUs that have a PCI/RAM type socket

lunar dawn
#

honestly its better than amd is using lga now bcs its easier to drop a cpu than a mobo

I never the leave the plastic protector in and do it, I always take that crap off first, and most of the ones I do are swap out anyway

#

I really like the ihs design of the am5

latent light
#

Rumors from almost a year ago were true about LGA and the IHS design, 100% accurate

#

Even had the pin count and everything

#

Has everyone noticed that "MSRP:" is no longer a specification on product listings anymore.

#

I thought it was law to disclose MSRP

pale quartz
#

not a simple answer

toxic wigeon
#

Hmm...

pale quartz
#

Zen 3 has a negligible RAM latency, it isn't particularly high

toxic wigeon
#

Ok then. CL16 3200 to 3600 mhz

pale quartz
#

the whole "high latency" with Zen's architecture was down to Zen 2 not having a fully interconnected CCX, this isn't the case with Zen 3

#

which is why Zen 3 doesn't have as high an impact on RAM performance as Zen 2
