you have corruption, I would first run Windows Memory Diagnostic, or Memtest86, if you don't have memory errors, I would clean the drives and install windows from a USB Drive, not from within windows, delete all partitions and start fresh.

eager sun Jan 18, 2022, 10:40 AM

#

is there a good reason for intel to put an igpu onto a 700$ cpu ? wouldnt it make more sense to use that space for more cores or thermal management ?

pale quartz Jan 18, 2022, 10:40 AM

#

theoretically, yes, but that isn't so straightforward to do

#

the iGPU on the chip in terms of the architecture is physically segregated during chip production away from the actual cores, so in order to add more cores/increase thermal management they would essentially have to redesign and validate an entire subset of their own chips

#

the iGPU is there mainly for people who do not have a dedicated GPU, laptops being the primary market, it just makes more practical sense really to have it included in terms of multiple market segregations

#

once you take it out and include the added expense for revalidation + extra cores the price will roughly come out the same, so there's no real financial motive on Intel's part to exclude it

Yikes! Lenovo is vendor-locking AMD Ryzen CPUs via PSB

Lenovo is vendor-locking its AMD Ryzen based platforms with AMD PSB including its Ryzen Pro ThinkCentre Tiny platforms. We just purchased an AMD Ryzen 5 Pro 5650GE system and found that AMD PSB was enabled from the factory. This means that the CPU can only be used by Lenovo-signed systems.

#

So you ended up upgrading to 11 from within the corrupted windows 10 install. You should have installed windows 10 from the USB media so you could delete the old partitions and create new ones., and then upgrade to 11 in a clean OS whhich could have been done anytime, and if there were issue you could revert back to clean windows 10 not the corrupted Win 10. but I guess as long as it works.

#

At least you have activated your Win11 license now, so you can use either one 10 or 11

1660 super and ti are extremely similar to eachother, this benchmark is with a 5800x but you have an 11700 which isnt THAT much worse. id expect similar performance myself considering some optimization since launch

Worst thing about 6500XT is the limited bandwidth of PCIe 4.0 x4

quick locust Jan 19, 2022, 3:44 PM

#

Yeah

latent light Jan 19, 2022, 3:44 PM

#

Even if you have older PCIe 3.0, still 4 lanes

#

Performance loss of up to 120%

#

Only consider this GPU if you have a PCIe 4.0 motherboard, if you have older standard then look for a GTX 1650 Super or RX 580 instead

lunar dawn Jan 19, 2022, 6:52 PM

latent light Worst thing about 6500XT is the limited bandwidth of PCIe 4.0 x4

but like why x4?

#

its not a laptop gpu

#

also from gamer nexus' testing on pcie gen3 its slower than a 1050ti

latent light Jan 19, 2022, 6:54 PM

#

PCIe 4.0 x4 so like 0.3% of the whole gaming market will actually be able to make full use of the 6500XT

#

LUL

#

So many people still on PCIe 3.0 boards

humble iris Jan 19, 2022, 7:04 PM

#

I'm still on PCIe 3.0 and my 2080 does not ever use a fraction of the available bandwidth.

#

The issue with 6500XT is 4GB vRam

#

I have a 1650 Super on PCIe 2.0 and no issue as well..

#

I tested with 3D Mark just to see if the meter was reporting correctly, The Benchmark was 86% of the PCIe 3.0 Bus, at 12.10 GB/s I have never seen the card get past 50% ever, usually only a few percent on normal basis.

humble iris I have a 1650 Super on PCIe 2.0 and no issue as well..

pcie 2.0 x16 is twice as fast as pcie 3.0 x4

also gn tested pcie 3.0 x4 vs pcie 4.0 x4 and the performance difference is obvious

humble iris Jan 19, 2022, 7:15 PM

#

eager sun pcie 2.0 x16 is twice as fast as pcie 3.0 x4

Yes this is true, but what I'm saying is a 2080 uses max 7% - 10% of PCIe 3.0 Bus Interface while playing 2042.

latent light Jan 19, 2022, 7:16 PM

That 4GB card is not going to care about x4 lanes

latent light Jan 19, 2022, 7:17 PM

#

Yeah it doesn't make sense that 6500XT is bottlenecked by PCIe 3.0 x4

#

Radeon did something wrong

humble iris Jan 19, 2022, 7:18 PM

#

I wish I had a bigger card to test with I would like to see the max saturation of PCIe 3.0 with a 3080/TI playing a game.

#

Probably the 6500XT has a bus limitation on itself

#

What's the memory bus speed on the 6500XT

#

32-bit? lol..

#

Memory Interface 64-bit

#

Memory speed is 2.25 GB/s

#

So the issue with PCIe 3.0 x4 is due to the 4GB vRam limit, and causing the card to starve for more bandwidth to access the system memory.

#

So yes 3.0 x8 would alleviate the issue, the problem is still 4GB vRam limitation. So at lower resolutions and games that don't require more then 4GB the 3.0 x4 will be fine.

eager sun Jan 19, 2022, 7:39 PM

#

youre wrong, the card has a 64 bit memory bus and an effective memory speed of 18Gbps which will result in 144GB/s of memory bandwidth

humble iris Jan 19, 2022, 7:40 PM

#

as you can see I posted it has 64-bit. which is low. and the issue is vRam limitation

eager sun Jan 19, 2022, 7:41 PM

eager sun Jan 19, 2022, 7:43 PM

4GB is good for older games

eager sun Jan 19, 2022, 7:44 PM

maybe not necessarily a hardware issue but maybe software.

eager sun in fact there is one if the gpu ist not at 100%

yes true, but it could be caused by something, but cpu is low usage still has overhead, could be game optimization as well.

a game doesnt use the complete cpu overall cpu usage is a useless measurement for cpu bottlenecks

#

with a 64 core threadripper you would have a really really bad cpu bottleneck in any game and cpu usage would be like 5% xd

humble iris Jan 19, 2022, 8:23 PM

#

That's a threaded optimization issue

orchid pelican Jan 19, 2022, 8:23 PM

#

Havent tested too many, getting very good fps in New World, Witcher 3 but got shit fps in Fallout 76 (people say its badly optimised though)

#

@eager sun But if the game cant utilise multicore surely single core usage would be maxing out

eager sun Jan 19, 2022, 8:25 PM

yes but that "issue" exists since forever its normal for a game to not use everything available

eager sun Jan 19, 2022, 8:28 PM

orchid pelican But why would the gpu have to work at 100% if the game doesnt require it?

the game doesnt "require it" your gpu will go as fast as it possibly can if the cpu can keep up

humble iris Jan 19, 2022, 8:28 PM

#

thats cpu bound, try higher resolution, and or higher settings

quick locust Jan 19, 2022, 8:29 PM

if you can easily hit 75 cap then your usage will be less

you have to play uncapped fps to derive anything from gpu usage

orchid pelican Jan 19, 2022, 8:30 PM

#

wait nvm, im not using any sync, just manually capped

humble iris Jan 19, 2022, 8:30 PM

#

what is the monitor refresh rate?

orchid pelican Jan 19, 2022, 8:32 PM

#

75hz

#

okay, so now im getting around 130/150 fps and both gpu and cpu are 90% + usage

humble iris Jan 19, 2022, 8:32 PM

#

if you are not using vsync or freesync or both, why cap fps?

eager sun Jan 19, 2022, 8:33 PM

#

manually setting fps cap same as refresh rate without any sync is not recommended youll get screen tearing straight from hell

orchid pelican Jan 19, 2022, 8:33 PM

#

otherwise the game feels even less smooth

eager sun Jan 19, 2022, 8:33 PM

#

if you didnt notice already xd

humble iris Jan 19, 2022, 8:33 PM

#

but your issue was studdering correct?

humble iris Jan 19, 2022, 8:34 PM

#

eager sun manually setting fps cap same as refresh rate without any sync is not recommende...

yep.

orchid pelican Jan 19, 2022, 8:34 PM

Yeah stuttering and the game feeling not smooth

eager sun Jan 19, 2022, 8:34 PM

#

eager sun manually setting fps cap same as refresh rate without any sync is not recommende...

this

#

extra added not smoothness bcs 75fps is kinda not enough imo

humble iris Jan 19, 2022, 8:35 PM

#

so if you have Freesync, and vsync set on, set fps cap to 75 or below, I usually turn off vsync cause I would rather have tearing then latency

eager sun Jan 19, 2022, 8:36 PM

#

in some games vsync latency isnt that bad maybe bf2042 is one of them

just using freesync would be an option though freesync on and cap at 74 will prob work better than vsync

slim mirage Could anyone tell me why a crash like this happens? It happens every single time...

I feel like it's my PSU. I don't crash under heavy CPU, I've run benchmarks for hours without crashing. I don't crash under heavy GPU load alone, I've run Furmark for hours with my GPU maxed out with no crashes.

I only crash when both my CPU and GPU are under load, playing games.

If I play Civ6 I crash consistently in about 30 minutes. If I play Civ5, 90 minutes. Jurassic World Evolution, 8 minutes.

Does that sound like a PSU issue?

if I had 3 more I could do raid 6

also i would have to move everything before doing the raid but it would be easier now than when it gets more full

Type: The type of the attribute. Either “Pre-fail” for attributes that are said to indicate impending failure, or “Old_age” for attributes that just indicate wear and tear. Note that one and the same attribute can be classified as “Pre-fail” by one manufacturer or for one model and as “Old_age” by another or for another model. This is the case for example for attribute Seek_Error_Rate (ID 7), which is a widespread phenomenon on many disks and not considered critical by some manufacturers, but Seagate has it as “Pre-fail”.

humble iris So it was out warranty, but was a known issue?

Was discovered a year or so in warranty

#

They had a free "fix" kit which was a couple thermal pads

#

But I neglected to get it so I got stuck with a dead card

humble iris Jan 21, 2022, 3:21 AM

#

They expected the user to fix, no RMA? that crap.

Thankfully I had a 2080ti on the way and that's been great

humble iris Jan 21, 2022, 3:23 AM

#

I've purchased loads of GPUs from them, and only had 4 dead cards, 780 FTW died after 3 years of heavy very heavy use. A GTX 285 FTW died after 10 years, they replaced it with a 780 SC, and 2 8800GTS 512s in SLI used for nearly 10 years hard, I did not bother to RMA them.

#

Maybe 100+ cards total

Yeah I understand how an experience like that can tarnish their business.

Is the 2080TI an EVGA card?

Well the cheaper cards are always reference

#

I got it to watercool

quick locust Jan 21, 2022, 8:09 AM

yes, cause custom design and manufacturing is expensive, so there's no point doing low to mid end cards with them

would just waste money

the cooler was horrible but you could just get it cheap then watercool

Only 7" (diagonally, not horizontally) 1024x600p USB powered monitor would be available for now, that is around 70-100 dollars. At that price, you could get a small 21-24" 1080p monitor on clearance. Or maybe you can install a software to sideload your tablet screen. It is far too expensive for a 9" screen

Intel can easily produce more GPUs than Nvidia or Radeon combined, owning fabs is a big advantage

#

Not certain on whether these GPUs are built in-house or outsourced to TSMC

#

Or both

N7+ is about the same density as first gen N6

N7 and N6 are made in the same fabs and use the same tools

So supply won't see improvement imo

In about a year when I upgrade to Sapphire Rapids-x I might end up going with an intel GPU, I got burnt out on getting shafted by Nvidia, and AMD is just as bad. As soon as AMD had a CPU Player on the market they jacked prices so it became irrelevant to what they stood for. Intel all the way for me next, I hope these GPUs are as great as we hope for, will bring prices down as well. I was once on a full Nvidia platform, Nvidia 780i Motherboard Chipset, and GPU, Nvidia was threatening to start making CPUs. Intel was working on a GPU. this was years ago, but finally Intel is doing it. Remember Intel Larrabee that got canceled? I'm going full Intel if it works out.

@humble iris that could be a good idea as I just read a headline that stated 'Nvidia Officially Increases European Prices on RTX 30-Series GPUs'

Scalper prices coming back to haunt us? Maybe Nvidia think if people are prepared to pay stupid money for a card, then we'll sell them more expensive
