it's just north of the USA
so yeah, most people forget we exist

#

good luck

astral haven
#

i tried that before and it didnt work

crisp granite
#

other countries...ship to estonia

astral haven
#

afox is a known existing brand tho

#

not known good
known existing

crisp granite
#

may also want to check amazon of other countries

#

and...

#

honestly other euro shops

#

amazon ships everywhere
some sellers can choose not to
and not all items can ship to Estonia

#

same as other countries without an actual Amazon presence

astral haven
#

Its a joke

vivid vine
crisp granite
#

at that point the only real value of them is opening them up and using the fast rotation and rough surface to sharpen axes and other tools

vivid vine
#

Got lucky, Samsung sent me a replacement for my 970 Evo and they gave me a Plus

astral haven
#

What does happen is any data you haven't touched in about 4-8 years will start to get corrupted on qlc
It takes 10-30 years on hdd

#

no

ashen spindle
#

dont give in to big data

astral haven
#

the electrons just escape of the ssd
and the magnetism goes back to neutral on a hdd

#

use cds

#

vacuum sealed cds last hundreds of years if climate controlled

vivid vine
#

Put that shit on CD's then convert it to Cassette tapes

astral haven
#

no
thats how long it takes before the data vanishes on its own

#

yes a few hundred years after you die you wont be able to load gta

crisp granite
#

duh

astral haven
#

1.2GB/s

#

but its also not 30tb its only 12tb

#

these days basically nothing compresses

#

yep but 1 machine can run a hundred or so tapes

#

there are tape libraries on ebay for very very cheap now that folks are going to lto9

#

by very cheap i mean $500 lel

ashen spindle
#

MF has some gpu deals going on for today if someone is loooking, 6800 for 530 as well

shadow minnow
#

Looks like a solid pricing ngl

#

Probably more worth it than 4090 for sure dogekek

astral haven
#

the halo always costs more

#

vs the 3090 lel

#

except at 4k

#

(or higher)

#

or in hdr
or any of the higher shader complexity games

#

its techpowerups benchmark suite...

#

also you should go ahead and try to guess what gpu caused them to switch psus (to a higher wattage) thanks to consistent crashing

ashen spindle
ashen spindle
#

very high is not max

astral haven
#

people who just want to have fun?

ashen spindle
#

if you play at 4k you already arent aiming to be esports pro so why not also have actual good quality to look at

astral haven
#

^

crisp granite
#

who tf actually spends the price of a shitbox or two on a PC and then lowers the graphics to literal potato levels you could get on a ten year old laptop?

frozen ingot
#

I play on as high settings as my computer can muster

astral haven
#

i increase my settings in cs until i drop below 240
basically everything but aa maxed

crisp granite
#

same, but all games, and 60fps

astral haven
#

well i have a 240hz monitor obviously lel

crisp granite
#

I got a 144hz

#

most of the games I play...idk
yeah I run them at 100-120

astral haven
#

60fps on 144
ew

crisp granite
#

but eh

astral haven
#

at least aim for 72

frozen ingot
#

I try to aim for at least around 70-90 fps

#

depending on game

crisp granite
#

I don't even try

astral haven
#

fair

frozen ingot
#

playing on a 144hz too

crisp granite
#

a lot of games also just...

#

hit 144Hz anyway

#

wooo bought a bit too much GPU but I play with RT, so glad I did

astral haven
#

im at 4k tho so im pretty infrequently hitting 240
generally just leave stock settings tho cause it works

crisp granite
#

playing at 1080p

#

still

#

yes

#

no I'm not crazy

#

ok maybe a little

#

there just isn't a compelling reason for me to go past that yet

#

lol

#

"stuck with it"

#

yeah mate really taking one for the team doing that

#

more 4090s for the rest of us

frozen ingot
#

I play at 1440p on a 2060 mm

crisp granite
#

cool bug fact

#

you don't need a quadruple digit framerate

#

you'll suck either way

frozen ingot
#

I haven't played pvp in years, I'd rather just enjoy gaming than looking at fugly visuals for better frames and enduring constant toxicity from sweatlords

astral haven
#

you got a reflex monitor?

frozen ingot
astral haven
#

photodiode?

#

fun

#

ya

#

i want a 2.1hd but they keep going up in price and I cant possibly justify

#

960 fps slow mo is fake

#

yap

#

unless the camera supports 7kfps too

#

the only real phone that supports about 1k fps is the huawei which advertises 7680 fps but in reality its 960

ashen spindle
#

https://twitter.com/opinali/status/1575821254203875328 a bit older but a nice thread, always fun to see someone be this direct about it dogekek

@GraphicallyChal CPU game benchmarks below 1080p are a fraud perpetrated on the gaming community by reviewers that ignore the full complexity of game engines, or they know but don't care because they just need to show some winner in every chart no matter if the game is Tetris.

astral haven
#

interpolation 🤮

#

if you are allowing tearing, that would be your best case scenario

#

all likelyhood tho its gonna be lower (the difference)

#

in practice yea as well

#

tearing can get you way sub 1/hz latency render start to image on screen

#

1/hz

#

so yea you are
you are cutting over 1ms off your 1/hz time

#

you can thank reflex for that

#

wheres the extra 2 coming from?

#

yea but thats wrong if you allow tearing

#

and your fps is higher than hz

#

1000hz polling rate 1000 fps 240hz 0 buffers no lcd transitions
Minimum latency = 1ms
Maximum latency = 6ms

#

The average will not be halfway between the two

shadow minnow
#

Which equals to your 2.083 X 2 + 2
So the 2.083 + 1 is average

shadow minnow
shadow minnow
#

Frame won’t be more than 1ms old when it appears but frames appear every 4.sth ms

#

If GPU generated 1000 frames

astral haven
shadow minnow
#

Oh I see now

#

Would it really be 6.167 max too

#

But the frame won’t be more than 2ms old

#

That gets displayed

astral haven
#

That depends how you measure

shadow minnow
#

6.16 ms is the highest time difference there can be between two frames being rendered

#

2ms I think is the delay of rendered frame being displayed

#

You get 6.16 if previous frame was rendered 2ms before displaying

#

Now leds don’t switch instantly so it would not be exactly that but cables also aren’t instant, this is just in theory

#

Why would it be 3?

#

No worries 😄

fickle ore
#

why are the arrows the wrong way 😄

shadow minnow
#

That way yes
I thought the polling rate is polling rate of the monitor but that doesn’t matter dogekek

fickle ore
#

My OCD

#

Alting?

#

I am

#

Odd, no zk or lag

#

Why isn't the minimum 0.xx tho? Wondering

frozen ingot
#

can't help but think of this meme while reading discussions like this

fickle ore
#

@latent mural Tho wouldn't it cut your SD down considerably if you only focused on say the top 10% most part of the screen with tearing on

#

No need to measure middle or bottom

#

Maybe that's what you're doing. Didn't read the full convo =p

#

Ah nice

#

What the hell is rapid IPS. god damn these terms

frozen ingot
#

salesman buzzwords

#

just like slapping "esports" on something

fickle ore
#

Save for the 240 hz LG oled 😄

#

TN/IPS?

#

Ahh. Hope it's cheap

#

Might be fun to test

#

Not bad upgrade, I'm coping on a 280 hz VG259QM

#

500 hz prob feels amazing, or idk, maybe u feel how laggy the crosshair is in games that won't get you near 500 fps

#

no idea

#

Well I guess most people have that now as well

#

Nice. OW2 is ranging 280-350 for me on a 1060. I'm pretty sure I'm gpu bneck'd

#

Yeah

#

Wait, I think you can go 600 fps cap now

#

O.o crazy

#

ur running everything on the gpu side ehhe

#

How much the new driver helped?

#

Yeah the latest one which reduced cpu overhead

#

they afaik rewrote the driver stack

#

or atleast some parts of it, according to le reddit

astral haven
#

because they are testing gpu not full system

#

to prove that its not fully cpu bound

#

you still havent provided a source that confirms this lel

#

trust me bro nvidia just released drivers that fix 4 way sli on the gtx 780ti
zero added latency, 100% perfect scaling with vram spanning

#

fastest cards on the market rn

#

nothing gets even close

#

prove it?
"how can i
nobody is testing it
(there are some but im on my phone now)"

fickle ore
#

I agree, in dx 11.2++ 🙂

#

When the game is properly multithreaded (handles it)

astral haven
#

name 1

#

https://www.techpowerup.com/review/nvidia-geforce-522-25-driver-analysis/28.html
oh my god
someone actually finally tested it
seems that nvidia isnt gimping the old cards

fickle ore
#

Nice. 1080p receiving highest boost confirms it's cpu overhead reduction rather than gpu side optimization

#

Someone probably texted them

astral haven
#

gpus have threading problems too

fickle ore
astral haven
#

higher the res, the more time is spent rendering rather than sorting the threads

fickle ore
#

Uhh

astral haven
#

maxwell and later have an onboard arm cpu that does things

#

the newer stuff that arm cpu does more things

ashen spindle
#

after all latest ada feature was basically them saying they added OOS to gpus lel

astral haven
#

well thats not the same thing

#

im not talking cuda cores

ashen spindle
#

would that not happen before cuda cores get the info?

#

thats how I interpreted that

astral haven
#

yea it is before that

#

the ooe on ada is within a single warp

#

and the warps dont share hardware with other warps

#

define stock lel

ashen spindle
#

oh it reorders inside a warp? thought it meant it mixes waprs how it can best do them

gusty kiln

probably the first few seconds of a benchmark

not much of a competition

fickle ore
#

😄

#

Kidding ofcourse. Yeah I agree. Other than Amit and Bored hehe. Tho I wasn't very active in LAG to begin with.

ashen spindle
#

yeah but we have tons of fortnite kids that cant read so total is like -50 iq on server

gusty kiln
#

wtf is lag

fickle ore
astral haven
#

cause they could very well have just made up something for their slides

fickle ore
#

Gonna see how much my 1060 3g improves on the 522.xx

#

Please make my 2 dot go away in OW

astral haven
#

2 dot?

fickle ore
#

one dot means framerate is simulation bound
two dots means GPU is saturated
three dots means the Render thread is limiting the framerate

astral haven
#

thats pretty sweet

#

that would be useful to know if i played overwatch

fickle ore
#

There are dots after your displayed fps value

#

Yeah it's quite nice

#

Annoying that the added "high precision input" is a network solution rather than a more accurate input sampling method.

#

Been since launch of OW1 😄

ashen spindle
#

when it gets to 15 dots the game is finally fun havo

fickle ore
#

It never gets fun 😄

ashen spindle
#

that was the point

fickle ore
#

Nvidia STILL not putting my gfx into MSI mode after installing. Easy gains there in future driver ver. Ig.

Idk if you know him

astral haven

I dont

fickle ore
astral haven
fickle ore
astral haven
#

there are plenty of tests by real reviewers that prove that the two are functionally identical

#

with published methodologies

fickle ore
#

I haven't looked

astral haven
#

no, but the fact that they provide a method to reproduce their results means that they are attempting to be auditable

#

i can make up numbers that look good to put on a graph

#

yep
which is why you need methodology

#

if you dont have that, theres no way to verify

#

🤷 its better documented than me or you

#

wow its almost like they know their users wont have that

#

except for techpowerup ofc that uses some 4000 bdie on 1:1 on ryzen

#

obv for gpu bench not cpu bench

fickle ore
#

rip

astral haven
#

yes but is it outside of error margins better?

#

cause its well within my error margins...

#

that means its not statistically significant

ashen spindle
#

uhhh

#

I'm not so sure you understand what margin of error is

#

yes I have my answer from that, correct

fickle ore
#

How much importance you place on the "statistically significant" is important here I think

ashen spindle
#

it's less about how much it matters and how well your testing is. 1ms can be a difference, if your methodology can not accurate find 1ms differences, then the error margin means you found nothing

astral haven
#

If there's over a 25% chance of the results changing via run to run variance I say it's not statistically significant no matter what lel

fickle ore
#

But if you automate 10k sample runs you can be fairly certain, e.g flood's results

ashen spindle
#

idk depends on how those samples were made, with what tools and how accurate they are etc.

Overclock.net

A user called ewh on ESR aka qsxcv on oc.net, has just come up with the first proper test for input lag that I've seen. I figured there's enough mouse weirdos here who would be interested in checking out what he has to say . Just a copy and paste, not my work, ewh is the guy whose come up with...

#

around 10µs according to him, but how can one verify 🙂

fickle ore
#

Yeah I agree. I want to believe I am less laggier than you. The only issue is if it's actually hurting perf, which I very much doubt.. Since nearly everyone (except NV) has moved to MSI mode on default. Tho I guess It could hurt if you're using NV gpu, never know

#

You'll need atleast 1k samples

#

If you're gonna convince folks 😄

#

Tho I'm not sure whether you'll EVER see it in the "average" value. Like on Muren's test he got like what less than 0.01 ms avg. diff? But you can see it in 0.1/1% lows.

ashen spindle
#

yeah at that values it's easy why they wouldn't change it: if it aint broke dont fix it

fickle ore
#

Yeah, it's not a big deal nowadays with modern PC's I guess

astral haven
#

heck memory retraining is more statistically significant than that lel

#

im waiting for 7000x3d

#

by then they should hopefully fix the iodie

fickle ore
#

No buy 13900k, I need my intel stonks go up

astral haven
#

13th gen is ipc boost too

#

will that translate to perf/clock? dunno

ashen spindle
#

14th gen could be fine or a mess, dont expect anything big from that

astral haven
#

im a single issue buyer tho
is it faster than my current setup?
and can it run an x16 4.0 card and x8 3.0 card at full bandwidth at the same time?
then i buy

fickle ore
#

I just saw news that AMD scaling back zen 4 production due to no demand, wtf is up with that. I guerss the mobos and ddr5 were too expensive in this economy

ashen spindle
#

servers will be happy to get more epyc chiplets heh

astral haven
fickle ore
astral haven
fickle ore
#

Cache go wrooom

ashen spindle
#

big cache big good

#

make game go fast

#

more cache = less talking to memory, memory slow

fickle ore
#

Make ur lobby based shooter fit into whole cache. No need to RAM it. I kid, I kid.. Maybe..

ashen spindle
#

my guess is for zen5 they will launch v cache with the main lineup and not delayed

#

then again zen5 on its own might also be a bigger gain so who knows, still a bit far out

#

yeah for intel probably havo

fickle ore
#

sheets?

ashen spindle
#

yeah but also 10nm used to sound promising and we know what happend there

fickle ore
#

O

#

Are they still made using 10nm+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

ashen spindle
#

raptor lake is still going to be 10nm++++++

#

think 6 plus is accurate there

fickle ore
#

😄

ashen spindle
#

chips act is 4 years to late to impact that node

#

yes

#

mtl =14

fickle ore
#

@latent mural So huh, 65% more conductive copper?

#

cool alloy

ashen spindle
#

the issue is mtl is likely q4 23 which puts it really close to zen5

fickle ore
#

I think that relates to low nm reliability/failure

grave prairie
#

lol

astral haven
#

tantalum cobalt copper interconnects

fickle ore
#

Yeah it's got to do with electricity at low nm transistor sizes not killing them :

ashen spindle
#

one of the bigger things I see about MTL that make me worry is that intel is using their foveros stacking for that which is not out yet but has worse specs than what tsmc is using for a lot of products already

astral haven
#

what
since when is foveros not out yet?

ashen spindle
#

the revision they use for mtl, not the base they used since lakefield

astral haven
#

🤷 theyve had a full dev cycle to learn about it since lakefield release

ashen spindle
#

yeah but the specs they mentioned about it at last hotchips were iirc lower than what tsmc already does

astral haven
#

sure

#

but what products has tsmc launched with 3d stacking that isnt ram?

#

mistype

ashen spindle
#

iirc its not about 3d stacking since mtl wont use it but they use it to put the tiles that mtl has on the substrate, it's been too long and too vague so I wont remember the details correctly this late, I just know people compared specs when that came out and it seemed worse

#

so that mtl seemed like not that big of a deal but arrow lake should be hype

#

might remember the comparisons tomorrow or find them again

astral haven
#

🤷 infinity fabric is alot worse than tsmcs substrate tech...

ashen spindle
#

sure but doesnt make it easier to beat it on a theoretical worse base line

astral haven
#

unless intel is talking about their practical testing...

ashen spindle
#

well the last thing they talked about was delays till the q4 23 date now lel

astral haven
#

im hype about the 34 p core chip tho

#

like what in the name of all that is holy was that

ashen spindle
#

Wait what

#

Oh that leaked wafer from intel days recently

#

Yeah that is some abomination

astral haven
#

oh sorry raptor lake

#

not mtl

#

a lower bin of that could very well meet my spec through just having pcie lanes

ashen spindle
#

I don’t think that would end up as desktop chip though unless they revive the hedt parts

astral haven
#

the die was marked as a client chip

ashen spindle
#

Yeah but it was marked as rpl-s when it seems to match the known info about SPR-mcc

astral haven
#

yes
but it was marked as being a 34 core rpl-s

ashen spindle
#

I mean I’m not sure if it physically fits on the socket lel that thing must’ve been some of the biggest chip size they ever made

astral haven
#

no like

#

regardless of the socket it runs, its designed to top off the stack of raptor lake

#

4677 or 4189 idgaf

#

but a threadripper competitor?
that gets me excited

ashen spindle
#

Wonder if it has has many issues as the spr chips where they had so many steppings already

astral haven
#

spr has alot tho

#

quick assist, matrix, pcie 5, and some absolutely monstrous ddr5 controllers

#

these are gonna be the first >quad rank ddr5 imcs

ashen spindle
#

Yeah but now something caused it to be so delayed from all the steppings it has to compete with Genoa instead of Rome lmfao

astral haven
#

yea

ashen spindle
#

But would be nice to see a team blue threadripper again

astral haven
#

im gonna give intel 2 years before I start whining about engineering errors

#

the 3175x is very long in the tooth

ashen spindle
#

Maybe we also get zen4c for hedt? Would be some good competition

astral haven
#

but pat hasnt seen the start of a product release yet

#

so far everything was already rolling when he was rehired

ashen spindle
#

Ya

#

But hey, if we see amd make zen6 on intel18 or so that would be sick and then pat madd the right call havo

astral haven
#

lel
as if

ashen spindle
#

Imagine though, zen6 6ghz allocore on intel 18a

astral haven
#

would be extremely fast

#

wouldnt be x3d tho :/

#

and intel sram aint dense (relatively speaking last i checked)

ashen spindle
#

who says they would have to use intel for the sram stacks

astral haven
#

doubt they could stack to begin with
tho thinking further if foveros improves...

#

was more thinking on die sram

ashen spindle
#

Make ccd on 18A, sram wherever and 3d stack with better emib or so

#

And with zen5 being a bigger redesign who knows how the ccds will look like there

astral haven
#

very true

ashen spindle
#

Certainly timing wise they could do some fancy stuff, will be fun to see if it’s a mix of intel and tsmc for both intel and amd lel

#

Amd certainly is considering it if only for capacity lol

astral haven
#

sadly none of this applies to me if i cant get off of am4 due to lack of people releasing boards with chipset x8 or plx/switchtec switches

#

Is it really too much to ask for a pro board on a consumer chipset these days?

shadow minnow
#

Apparently dogekek

astral haven
#

😭

shadow minnow
#

Reminds me of Intel limiting ECC on non “workstation” mobos

#

For basically no reason

#

On ddr5 where the CPUs support it

astral haven
#

intel has always done that?

#

gotta also remember theres 2 eccs on ddr5

shadow minnow
#

I don’t think the CPUs fully supported ecc on ddr4

#

Now they do even on consumer chips

astral haven
#

far as i understand its an identical situation as before

#

except there are some i5 and i3 with ecc support instead of just i3 and e3

shadow minnow
#

Reminds me also that intel didn’t release an x299 replacement for a while.
I was getting into pc stuff arround that time, and right before rtx 20 series launch

astral haven
#

they still havent lel

#

technically

shadow minnow
#

Yeah

#

Only bit updated x299 version

astral haven
#

hunh?

shadow minnow
#

X299x

astral haven
#

🤨

#

you mean the exact same chipset but with motherboards that have ok power delivery?

shadow minnow
#

Yes

#

Aorus designare boards looked cool back then

#

And z390 aorus extreme

#

And 2080 waterforce wb

#

The design has gotten worse since then

#

Gigabyte had some good design people then probably fired them dogekek

#

Also the old aorus memory, first gen looked way better than current one, even if clocks were lower

#

The kit with two just RGB no capacity rams so your board doesn’t look empty dogekek

astral haven
#

meh

shadow minnow
#

Reminds me I may have to get more ram, having 2x8
But that would be worse for OC pepecry

astral haven
#

giga never had any pro under the consumer brands

shadow minnow
#

Yes but gigabyte designare stuff always looked cool

astral haven
#

Yes
And didn't really have any pro features
Better rear io sure but I need pcie lanes

#

Any board that can't run a 40g nic is just disappointing in the pro line

shadow minnow
#

Well the x299x designare did have pcie lanes dogekek

#

For DDR4 pretty sure it at least used to be 2x8 b dies but may have changed since then

astral haven
astral haven
#

8gb ddr5 is hot trash

#

2x8 4400 14 14 existed tho
And it was considered a mid bin lel

#

Well mid tier for a good bin of bdie

shadow minnow
astral haven
#

We shall see
I'm hype for 24gb sticks lel

shadow minnow
#

I have 4266 cl19 1.4 which eh
On iGPU so far I was really unlucky with stability but on dGPU it will hopefully be better

shadow minnow
#

With lanes being added, would be nice to see a chipset that like takes 4 pcie 5 lines from cpu and turns them into 16 pcie 3 lines for some slot, or 8 pcie 4
And well 4 channel memory controller though not as necessary with DDR5, would have been nice on DDR4

astral haven
#

What I want is them throwing all the m.2 onto the bottom slot
So you can use 2 m.2 or a 4 m.2 riser

shadow minnow
#

Wdym by bottom slot?

astral haven
#

Top slot is x16 to cpu

#

Bottom slot is x16 electrical to chipset

#

You can throw a quad m.2 riser in it

shadow minnow
#

Well it’s better to have ssd directly connected to cpu

shadow minnow
#

Or non yet

astral haven
shadow minnow
#

I mean which platform supports it?

astral haven
#

All the chipsets would in theory support it

shadow minnow
#

Not really

astral haven
#

Am4 definetly does
None of the others have an example

shadow minnow
#

At least older Intel chipsets didn’t have very fast connection to cpu

#

Now if the connection was made pcie 5

astral haven
#

That's not the point

shadow minnow
#

And then chipset used lower versions that would be cool

astral haven
#

The point is to have the link

#

My board has an x8 4.0 on chipset
Am4
It has sufficient bandwidth for x4 4.0 or x8 3.0

#

Yet an x8 4.0 device will still fit

#

What I want is that on am5 or z790

#

Both have enough lanes and bandwidth for pcie 3x16

shadow minnow
#

True

astral haven
#

There are at least 3 motherboards with 3 chipset m.2s and a chipset x4 slot

#

Between z690 and am5

astral haven
#

Oh my b that was 4400 19

#

And it would always hit 3600 flat 14

#

Actually wait what the shit?
3800 flat 14 at 1.45 sure
But 4000?

Windows 11 22H2 is slowing down AMD CPUs....
Gosh! Just like when windows 11 first launched
It's like AMD CPUs aren't considered when they make it
And just bolted on to the side by driver updates once the public make a big fuss

ashen spindle
#

almost like thats complete BS and just a result of two chiplets having a latency penalty that cant be completely removed if you share data between them

#
  • power/frequency limits when you have two ccds active
#
  • amd is working with microsoft so that initial win11 bug was just as much on MS as much as it was on AMD not spotting it
#

like you do realize how many microsoft server are running AMD now yes?

#

why would they want to sabotage their own servers

wheat plume
#

They do??

ashen spindle
#

amd is by far the more wanted server chip vendor for some time now...

#

(in most cases, not all obviously)

#

here get some 96 core azure amd services

#

96 cores means 12 chiplets, if they sabotage multi chiplet latency that would make massive impact there lmfao

ashen spindle
#

thank you vexx for proving my point of you not reading anything havo

wheat plume
#

Windows 11 has no screen tearing, which is really good for me, cause I had it all the time on 10 .-. and I got a headache from it

ashen spindle
#

win11 22h2 is the version the article had you linked

cursive summit
#

I just cared about the ryzen results not Windows

wheat plume
#

it seems windows 10 is better for AMD systems :/

ashen spindle
#

no its the same

wheat plume
#

or not 22H2 on 11

ashen spindle
#

again, that is just the system that one person made the tests on, it's about the same on other versions

#

win11 had a bug for about a week, maybe two, where some amd cpus due to a bug had performance problems in some applications

#

that's all there was about amd and win11 since then

Does a product have to be recertified to have DP2.1?

#

So 2.0 isn't 2.1 exactly?

vagrant pagoda
#

The spec deals mainly with devices with USB type c video

#

The only changes to display port is better cable standards

gusty kiln
#

Damn 2.0 is like 3x faster than 1.4, never bothered to look before

#

Could probably do 1440 at 360hz 10-bit color

Ah but a better upscaling engine can't hurt

#

Upscaling 4k24 to 4k120?
Vrr up to 4k120?
Hdr 4k120?

I'd buy it in a second if it had vrr 4k120 support

#

First time I've heard any mention of Arc on Linux

ashen spindle
#

not sure how everyone is wrong about it when phoronix and others say its not a bad buy on linux

wheat plume
#

Yeah, Id assume the driver situation is the same as their iGPUs, built into the kernel?

ashen spindle
#

idk doesnt really matter

wheat plume
#

Yeah, it just matters if they are closed source like Nvidia and make desktops have issues if you try to fix screen tearing

#

plasma kept crashing and freezing when I was playing a game for longer than an hour
gnome desktop feels stuttery and shit when moving windows around the screen but in games it smooth and doesnt crash

thick elk
#

The intel IGP drivers had problems on windows as well. I remember some youtubers going about better compatibility on linux playing games on intel igps. Major difference is intel ark also pushes tech forward and the dx11 drivers kind of suck and older dx versions are even worse. Besides that, their GUI utility does not work well. These problems simply are irrelevant in Linux land. Also, everyone (except Nvidia) using Mesa cuts down on the burden on getting good OpenGL / Vulkan support.

But yea, Nvidia drivers on Linux suck ass.

#

And everyone does not just mean Intel + AMD but also arm, broadcom, qualcomm and google, as well as unofficially the broken open-source nvidia drivers and the open source apple m1-2 drivers which also don't fully work yet.

wheat plume
#

Asahi Linux works on M1

#

idk much about its graphics drivers though

astral haven
#

They are not in the slightest stable

thick elk
#

Of course, but the fact that they are in an at least somewhat functional state is pretty impressive

ashen spindle
#

ehh, while it is apples own chip, they are reusing arm, it's not like people made working drivers for unknown hardware

vagrant pagoda
#

there is no gpu acceleration support yet

thick elk
#

Not in mainline no but they are running. Considering and can run run some of the simpler things.

vagrant pagoda
#

there isnt a barely functional opengl support

#

that is slower than cpu

shadow minnow
#

I mean you can even run normal windows without proper graphics engine support

#

With some VMs

thick elk
#

To be fair I have not looked much into it, because well it's Apple hardware, not something I care much about.

shadow minnow
#

Wrong mindset

cursive summit
#

M1 114T transistors????

#

How are they able to manufacture it so cheap and stuff it into 700$ products

ashen spindle
#

also its billion not trillion

#

apple isnt putting a cerebras WSE into macs lmfao

vagrant pagoda
#

m1 was 8 cpu cores and 7 gpus cores for 16 billion

shadow minnow
#

It’s still a lot

vagrant pagoda
#

m1 ultra is 20 cpus cores and 64 gpu cores for 114 billion

shadow minnow
#

Steamdeck is 2.5

ashen spindle
#

also that site is much cooler

#

slower in getting updates though sadly

vagrant pagoda
shadow minnow
ashen spindle
#

keller put it best
"the amount of people who say its dead doubles every two years"

vagrant pagoda
#

steam deck is total i think is 5.4 billion

#

and the m1 has way more gpu grunt

ashen spindle
#

not that it matters if its true or not since it got so much more complex now anyway

cursive summit
#

What's the possibility that Moore's law instead of dying, skyrockets into oblivion where our processors can't reach it

#

Cause there's no reason to

vagrant pagoda
#

and thats 4c vs 8 for the og m1

ashen spindle
#

with 3d stacking and all that coming its also not relevant, either it somewhat still works by numbers or not but improvements will still come

#

and then when we move away from EUV and/or silicon who knows how that scales

vagrant pagoda
#

also

#

the real statistic that matters is cost per transistor adjusted for inflation.

ashen spindle
#

or hell, maybe photonics is taking over more areas then stuff works differently as well, or if we do stuff like carbon based processors

#

and as much as it is a joke now, AI will make a big impact, if you can use dlss 5 to just make up accurate frames, you dont need to double transistors for that etc.

#

maybe the massive gpus are just preparing us for replacing wafer sized gpus in the future havo

#

Howdy! I'm designing some keyboard accessories, and I was wondering if there is be a CAD file of the 69he with switches and key caps?

#

60he

ashen spindle
coarse nexus
#

I can probably make do with any ANSI 60percenter.

#

I ve been working off the CAD files from there, but there aren't any switches or caps.

#

Unless I've missed them...

ashen spindle
#

well the key caps are just default caps, nothing special there

#

the cad for switches would be something gateron would have to provide, dont think they have that

#

but you could send an email to wooting mabye they can forward it or something

coarse nexus
#

Yeah. I don't need switches. Just the caps, all in position.

ashen spindle
#

ah yeah its just default OEM profile keycaps, I would guess take any you can find would work just fine

coarse nexus
#

I'll see if I can find something somewhere. It's my desperate hope that I won't have to individually position all the keys on my model :^}

ashen spindle
#

if you cant find something, email wooting, they might have that internally and just never put it on the github since that isnt technically something wooting specific

coarse nexus
#

Cool.

stark bobcat
#

In the latest short circuit they actually mentioned wooting even tho the video isn't really related to wooting aside from being about a keyboard

#

Kinda pog

#

Mindshare ⏫

cursive summit
#

Hmm

#

I guess 300W TBP max?

#

That'd be great

#

Although the raster perf could be always better dogekek

#

So it seems we might be hitting 3x RT perf after all

shadow minnow
#

Well I hope more than 2 RT

#

Didn’t nvidia have like 4xRT

#

Already being better in RT with 3090 than 6950XT

cursive summit
#

RT doesn't matter for shit anyways

shadow minnow
#

It does for some people

#

Who use it

cursive summit
#

I like prebaked shaders more

#

The only place where, as a dev, I'd like RT would be audio

#

Or maybe effect illumination?

#

Audio I'd definitely raytrace

#

I fuckin love audio

shadow minnow
#

I myself do plan to use RT tbh
Even if I have to use DLSS
Though I wouldn’t use DLSS frame generation

#

Ngl ray traced audio would be cool

#

Issue is you can’t ray trace it

#

Because it’s not a ray

#

But a wave

cursive summit
#

Oh

shadow minnow
#

But yes spatial audio is cool

cursive summit
#

AMD is working on more cool RT stuff

#

This is why I'm not going to do programming

#

I feel retarded already

thick elk
#

Interesting is the performance of it, it really does not rely on raw rt performance as much and as such in this demo the 3080 performs the same as the 6900

#

But good to seem them do the ground work

shadow minnow
#

Wave traced audio would possibly need even more performance since it’s not just a direct ray

thick elk
cursive summit
#

Games already have those and the performance impact is negligible

#

It doesn't actually use actual rays

shadow minnow
#

So question is how accurate is it

cursive summit
#

But god damn it sounds insane

cursive summit
thick elk
#

Not really on a technical sense as far as I know. Object bounces in the real world matter a lot

ashen spindle
#

what games use is something to get close to it, it's not fully accurate yet and still eats developer time to get it right instead of fully accurate simulated audio

thick elk
#

Basically getting it to sound about right and sound directional is one thing, acurately simulating it is another

shadow minnow
#

If you use earphones instead of speakers ear and head scanning can have quite a bit of impact

ashen spindle
shadow minnow
#

And well earphones or earbuds have a huge advantage

#

Because they can isolate your ears

#

So just one speaker in each is enough

#

If they can exactly approximate how would sound entering your ears sound

shadow minnow
#

When do we get games that combine raytracing and Microsoft acoustics to simulate wave particle duality?

cursive summit
#

Interesting comparison

#

14 cores for 300$

#

I don't remember seeing anywhere that Raptor Lake launches Oct 20th

#

Where are all the benchmarks dogekek

shadow minnow
#

I have even seen prebuilds advertising raptor lake

#

But ngl seems like good value compared to 7600X
Do 7600X not have E cores?

cursive summit
#

?

#

What are you talking about

#

7600X?

#

That's AMD

shadow minnow
#

Yes

cursive summit
#

"E cores"?

shadow minnow
#

And I am asking if it has E cores

cursive summit
#

That's an Intel invention

shadow minnow
#

Efficiency

#

Yes but it’s short for efficiency

cursive summit
#

AMD has not gone big.SHITTLE yet

#

They are rumoured to have some somwhere in labs

#

But no, we do not have little cores for AMD yet

#

Good riddance

shadow minnow
#

Seems like Intel CPUs are better value for now, switched places. Especially like 13400 vs 5600X

#

Funny how it used to be and being better value Intel better performance

ashen spindle
#

no because you sorta need ddr5 on the 12400 and ddr4 and cheaper boards on the 5600x

cursive summit
#

I think the biggest factor here is that you can buy an LGA1700 board and DDR4 memory to run Raptor Lake

cursive summit
#

Ryzen 7000 requires an all new board and memory to run

ashen spindle
#

you said 5600x

thick elk
#

Platform cost is a factor, decent AM4 Mobo's are dirt cheap

shadow minnow
#

Meant to say 7600X

ashen spindle
#

also e cores dont make sense for amd currently

cursive summit
#

I'm mostly confused why on earth Bexin even mentioned E cores on AMD

thick elk
#

The biggest problem with ryzen 7000 is platform costs

shadow minnow
#

Which needs DDR5
While raptor lake can run DDR4
And 13400 will probably be cheaper

ashen spindle
#

yeah if you want to lower the performance of it

#

at that point why even go for it and not stick with zen3

shadow minnow
#

Amd is now high performance on new gen

ashen spindle
#

no I'm saying even on lower end intel isn't winning

shadow minnow
#

I doubt 7600X will beat 13400

ashen spindle
#

because the lower end for amd is just getting zen3 atm

shadow minnow
#

But we will see

shadow minnow
ashen spindle
#

also the 13400 is not raptor lake thats just alder lake refresh, it lacks increased cache and such

shadow minnow
#

Oh

#

Well I suppose we will know more when benchmarks are out

cursive summit
#

We know how that ended

#

I'm mostly rather hyped for RDNA3 rn

#

The performance increase will be massive

#

Especially in Ray Tracing where they figured out full global ray illumination that doesn't tax the GPU much

#

And that was on the 6900XT

#

We gon be (prolly) matching 4090 this year dogekek

thick elk
#

Also remember the RT achitecture of nvida / amd is very different, things optimized for one may not perform as well on the other relatively speaking.

cursive summit
#

Mostly interested in what FPS will we be seeing from RDNA3

#

Even if they can't match the 4090, as long as they price the cards right it'd be amazing

#

-5 or -10% overall perf for like 30% cheaper cards dogekek

stark bobcat
#

honestly I am waiting for gpus on the lower end of this to get so good that I don't need anything about 300€ to be cpu bottlenecked

there is a LOT more links I could send

maybe not any links about an issue that was fixed last year already?

#

the first and last arent last year

it literally has 2021 in the url what are you on about

halcyon moss
wheat plume
#

OH LOL, I heard before that AMD works better in Clear Linux

cursive summit
halcyon moss
#

i know

#

relevant to the discussion :p

ashen spindle
#

so back to windows, if we ignore the links that are from last year, it all is the same one result where it was tested on win11, not compared to another version so we currently only know that turning one CCD off helps, which has been the same since amd went to chiplets

#

now if you can actually find me something that shows windows has an issue, please go ahead, I would like to see that

cursive summit
#

It just seems Win11 scheduler might still have issues with CPUs

ashen spindle
#

the only thing we know is someone making a post saying "21H2 seems more suited"

#

we dont even know if thats true or if it is by how much

#

might be true but less than the result of turning CCDs off

#

but as we know so far

#

there is NO PERFMANCE ISSUE FOR AMD ON WINDOWS

yea it only goes up to 5 meters what a shame

vagrant pagoda
#

i wish someone made a TB with a internal type c header

ashen spindle
#

also he wants dp for gsync since hdmi doesnt have it... like bruh what are you doing as an artist that you need VRR for creating stuff and hdmi-vrr isnt enough??

astral haven

#

surely hdmi-vrr works for that too

#

also we dont have video makers lmfao

astral haven
#

hdmi-vrr is barely supported

#

and is at least in my experience as bad as freesync jitter wise so it defeats the point

ashen spindle
#

3d artist/animators, and I can tell you blender doesnt break if you dont have gsync lmfao

#

also why look at laptop specs with high quality 4k screens if you ask for DP for external screens, we're not looking for the best possible laptop, aint no way that gets paid for lmfao

#

then says the laptop I got as an example (alienware m17) wouldnt work because usbc-dp there is coming from the igpu, when the vr headsets we use have hdmi....

It actually is

#

Because i can't fit the tb card in the actual slot

#

So I have a riser

#

And then a panel mount type c running up fronr

#

Kek

astral haven
#

hunh

#

thats actually really cool

#

my method of getting front panel io is having the rear panel of my computer face me lel

vagrant pagoda
#

Haha

#

I have rotated case

#

So io is up

#

And it's on a shelf behind my desk

#

So my front panel is actually the front side

#

I took a vertical GPU mount

#

Stuck the tb4 aic in it, and mounted to the "bottom" fan mount

#

Which has no fans

astral haven
#

my case is a mining rig from ebay

vagrant pagoda
#

i have a torrent

astral haven
#

you can see the pcie riser cards that are just sitting there from where I removed the extra stuff

vagrant pagoda
#

with only the front two fans

#

and rear fan

#

sitting on two wood spacers on its front

ashen spindle
#

bruh I suggested looking into using cheaper laptops with external gpu and the guy says the laptop version would be better because the card has more vram... yeah you go ahead and use your laptop 3060, I'll prefer my gpu that wont be stuck at 100w lmfao

astral haven
#

actually youd be surprised

#

some apps actually need the 10gb of bandwidth

ashen spindle
#

nothing we use though

astral haven
#

didnt you say 3d artists?

ashen spindle
#

how do I know? everything runs fine on the old 2060 machines in the office lmfao

astral haven
#

no i mean like for best performance

ashen spindle
#

for best performance it would be something like one of the alienwares that just have desktop chips in it

astral haven
#

?

#

wdym?

#

like the aga?

#

thunderbolt being able to hotplug has a signficant advantage

ashen spindle
#

wasnt there a laptop that had a 5950x and some fullsize desktop gpu or was that just a cpu socket but still laptop gpu

astral haven
#

cpu socket, laptop gpu

#

and it only could run non x cpus

ashen spindle
#

also for some reason instead of 3070ti wiht 8gb we apparently now need a 3080 min spec due to >=10gb vram... when as I said ever office machine still has a 6gb 2060 lmfao

#

we're looking for min spec to find what options exist, not what we would love to have

#

but maybe im just a bit annoyed at him because he told me I first need to read an article, which was the one that said dp1.3 is used for usbc and only works with short cables

#

that article was from when hdmi2.1 just got released lmfao

vagrant pagoda
#

0.0

#

@astral haven i just looked and gigabyte advertises thier x670e typce front panel header as usb 4

astral haven
#

👀

vagrant pagoda
#

but then they rolled back on it

#

wonder if its a cert thing?

astral haven
#

probably a signalling problem

vagrant pagoda
#

its the asmedia controller sadly

#

asrock has a intel maple ridge

#

but then only 2.5g lan

#

thunderbolt without paying intel

#

i really dont want to deal with asus again

#

but unless asrock comes out with a tachi razer with 10g

#

i just really, really, really hate asus's dumb m.2 riser

astral haven
#

dimm.2?

#

i do wish they had just made a tricked out bottom slot with a standard bifurcating riser

vagrant pagoda
#

yeah

#

the x670e extreme has 10g and intel usb 4

astral haven
#

i want 100g so just give me an x8 4.0 slot someone

#

but dont steal it from the gpu
