hopefully there are larger than 16 core configs
the 40c rumor was hype

cursive summit
#

Great deal, sell it and you get your money back

tall yew
#

yeah

#

I wish I didn't get my pc mid pandemic

#

It lost so much value

#

I paid $1400 for a strix 3080 pepecry

gusty kiln
#

still waiting for 4080 msrp to even touch 1000 even

rough osprey
#

we need corona v2

tall yew
#

I'm looking to sell everything except the 3080 and do an itx build but I would have to put $600 extra

#

itx shit is expensive asf

cursive summit
#

No, no thanks

rough osprey
#

i wanna make bank

cursive summit
#

You peeps need hesus

rough osprey
#

ho

frozen ingot
#

in the absolute height of the gpu famine

coarse cloak
#

same

frozen ingot
#

because my old gfx card was dying

vagrant pagoda
#

i got other way lucky

#

i wasnt gamming muich and still had my 290x cf

#

and my 990fx died

#

so i bought a entire pc with a 1080ti and z97 4790k

#

for like nothing

#

right before mining

frozen ingot
#

2060 and 1660 super were the only half decent gaming cards I could actually find in stock for months

vagrant pagoda
#

homie had this 4790k and 1080ti xteme

#

in some shit oem cas with 92mm fans

frozen ingot
#

I also got a 4790K rig for dirt cheaps

#

probably gonna run it into the ground

astral haven
#

and i paid quite a bit for my 5775c

#

damn fast cpu tho

#

x3d equivalent cpu before it was cool

vagrant pagoda
#

eh

frozen ingot
#

got a Z97 mobo, 4790K, 32gb 2400mhz ddr3 corsair dominators and a fulltower case for around $130

vagrant pagoda
#

the 5775c was like barely 5% faster

astral haven
frozen ingot
#

also a bonus GTX780 that turned out was on its last legs

#

and chose the worst possible moment in the timeline to fuck itself off pepecry

vagrant pagoda
#

the edram was only good for igpu really

astral haven
vagrant pagoda
#

yeah but 4790 or a 5775 is terrible now

astral haven
#

5775 stock beats zen 3

#

least in game

#

and the 5775c edram OC is pretty severe

frozen ingot
#

I'm honestly kinda blown away that a cpu as old as 4790K still has a fighting chance at all in most modern games

vagrant pagoda
vagrant pagoda
#

that isnt zen 3

frozen ingot
#

its still pretty brisk in everyday use as well

astral haven
astral haven
#

why the fuck did AMD do that

rough osprey
#

troll

frozen ingot
#

once you start digging out rendering/decoding applications or stuff depending heavily on multiple threads it really starts to fall apart though

frozen ingot
#

still a great gaming cpu

#

for the vast majority of people anyways

vagrant pagoda
#

eh

#

they struggle hard on new games

astral haven
#

and if you OC, in game its actually insane

#

1600mhz EDRAM to 2GHz is huuuuge

vagrant pagoda
#

a 5600x prob has 50+% gains over it

#

for almoist the same money

astral haven
vagrant pagoda
# astral haven 5600x doesnt often have 50% gains over 3600, why would it over the faster 5775c?...

Testing the Intel i7-5775C quad core CPU in 10 popular and demanding games in 2023, using an RTX 3070 discrete GPU.

In the history of Intel's modern CPUs, only one generation has been largely forgotten. The 5000 series, known by its architectural name of Broadwell, didn't see many versions released at retail. Most of those that did release were...

Hello, I have a question Can I keep it even if I turn off the wooting setting?

vagrant pagoda
#

the 5600x dominates

frozen ingot

vagrant pagoda

frozen ingot
#

cpu core clock speeds seems to have sorta peaked around the mid 2010s

frozen ingot
#

not much since that's pushed things further than 4.5-5ghz

astral haven
#

edram runs at 1200, 1400, 1600,1800 and on some boards it can do 2000
to do over that you need bclk

#

that means he was running desynced

#

in MLC, i was getting 44NS dram latency at 2GHZ dram + edram
at 2.4G i was getting 82NS

#

edram actual latency is 22ns

frozen ingot
#

yeah am not really that seasoned with the parts running in this, I did assume there had to be compromising with memory timing to reach that manufacturer rated clock

vagrant pagoda
#

that would mean it would do even worst

astral haven
vagrant pagoda
#

my exp with going from 4790 to 5600 was ram speed made the biggest difference

frozen ingot
#

to me the biggest problem is ram not being ddr4 mm

astral haven
#

the 5775c has a gigantic cache chip
if you run the memory too fast, the cache chip either disables itself or runs at 1600
it is just like desyncing ram on ryzen
you literally get worse performance than if you sync it

astral haven
#

again 1600 ddr3 on that chip is faster than 3200 on a 3600
those are both max official support

astral haven
#

my experience is that the 5775c ran faster in some games than my 5950x

#

at 1600mhz it was quite noticeably slower, and at 2400mhz it was also quite noticeably slower

frozen ingot
#

been kinda out of the loop with clocking for at least a decade, I'm just running the xmp profile the previous user set up with the cpu fixed at its "turbo performance" clock

astral haven
frozen ingot
#

I did disable hyperthreading and speedstepping, among a couple other things

astral haven
#

HT is definetly good for performance in most cases

#

and the faster your ram, the more betterer it is

astral haven
#

but it still happened

frozen ingot
#

yeah guess with software these days its better more often than not

#

for the longest time devs were kinda lazy to take advantage of more than the 2-4 threads being the norm for close to a decade

astral haven
#

can blame that on bulldozer lel

#

8 core 4 thread cpu

vagrant pagoda
#

truth

#

i ran my 1090t until i got the 4790k

astral haven
#

to be fair amd could have been right, (like intel was with the 5775c huge caches) and that fp workloads would have been useful
but turns out that was useless on the cpu, so sacrificing int for more fp was an atrocious move

ashen spindle
#

and yet intel is trying their best bulldozer copy with ARL havo

cursive summit
#

Does anyone know what's the market split for Intel vs AMD in CPUs?

#

It's around 20% - 80% AMD - Nvidia in GPUs

#

Intel not included

#

I wonder if Intel has that "AMD is inferior" mentality going on, or is the clearly superior architecture of Zen 4 having more market share as it should

ashen spindle
#

nobody at intel doing architecture cares about market share lmfao

frozen ingot
#

credit where its due intel has done a surprising amount of progress on improving their arc drivers

cursive summit
#

What are the numbers for Intel - AMD CPU market share

#

Cause this is the best I can find but obviously, not conclusive

frozen ingot
#

numbers seem plausible enough

astral haven
#

yea this is just gamers

late ingot
#

Is it possible to make the detachable cable for the wooting two?

cursive summit
reef patrol
#

The coiled cable is not compatible with the 2HE case. Doesn't fit.

late ingot
#

sorry i mean the new accessory one

cursive summit
#

How's it not going to fit?

#

It's just a cable

late ingot
fair gull
#

theoretically it could be made for the 2he as the main issue is the keyboard side connector not having a long enough cable

reef patrol
fair gull
#

the connector is right in the spot

late ingot
#

I see, so surely in the future they could make a compatiable one?

frozen ingot
#

disregard telephone cable, acquire clean, simple straight line one

late ingot
reef patrol
#

Yes.

reef patrol
cursive summit
#

It sounds like a bad design dogenek

#

Surely you could have accounted for the 2HE being able to fit it right?

late ingot
late ingot
reef patrol
#

The 2HE cable duct is too narrow for what we wanted to offer.

#

The cable was predominantly with 60HE in mind. That's just how it is.

cursive summit
#

I need to look up how that cable duct looks cause this sounds weird

#

It can't fit there?

reef patrol
#

Diameter goes in more than one axis.

cursive summit
shadow minnow
#

It certainly is unfortunate

cursive summit
#

I see where it might have clearance problems

#

Eh, unfortunate

#

Could also be a DIY solution to cram it in there

digital cliff
#

nothing a little bit of this can't fix

reef patrol
#

That would be the workaround yes. Not something we can ask customers to do though.

frozen ingot
#

simplest solution, use included cable mm

misty saffron
#

how do i fix it with a picture of some power tool

late ingot
frozen ingot
#

afaik no cable fully can, but especially not most coiled ones

late ingot
#

this one is supposed to XD

#

XD

#

👍

frozen ingot
#

I would assume its as close to the same length/spec as the stock one

late ingot
reef patrol
#

It's in the product info and everything

late ingot
reef patrol
#

You can.

frail pilot
#

how do i tell if i have a normal scan rate on my wooting 60he? this is without tach mode

frozen ingot
#

iirc some people had issues with erratic input on tachyon and stock cable as well, was a while back tho so might have been a quirk of the tachyon mode itself on earlier version?

late ingot
#

if we can do it without issues

reef patrol
#

As a precaution.

#

You can override it.

late ingot
#

💀 alright then

reef patrol
#

The keyboard can't tell what cable is connected.

frozen ingot
#

also not everyone wants full stadium lighting strength rgb as default mm

frail pilot
#

yea idk if my wooting 60he is faulty when it comes to scan rate or if im reading it wrong

late ingot
#

if the stock cable can do it?

rough osprey
#

60he bright edition when

reef patrol
late ingot
reef patrol
#

This is a COILED cable. The ones who are known to have issues.

#

From random brands

frozen ingot
# late ingot so this is just marketing?

I mean the standard included cable was within the specs for it all along, issue was a ton of people started hooking it up to their aftermarket coiled cables which most of them are too long and cause issues maintaining signal strength

late ingot
late ingot
#

for explaing to me

#

<3

frail pilot
#

yea maybe im reading this scan rate thing wrong

#

it says its 125hz max i thought hte wooting was 1000hz

reef patrol
#

It is.

#

Cables with ICs in them do exist.

frozen ingot
#

isn't that literally what they planned on doing for usb-c iphones

frail pilot
frozen ingot
#

use genuine apple cable or transfer/charge speed gets cut in half

reef patrol
#

No you're using software incorrectly as I recall.

frail pilot
#

i have tach mode disabled as well

reef patrol
#

Pretty sure Rocky has complained about that app several times.

frail pilot
#

just wanna test it before i enable it

shadow minnow
#

You’d have to press 1000 times per second speed for it to acc tell you

coarse cloak
#

theres another software that gives slightly more accurate readings

frail pilot
#

i got 5 ms

frozen ingot
#

app just tells you how long x key was actuated for really

digital cliff
#

not really, you just need to be able to cause an activation and a deactivation within 1ms

frozen ingot
#

yeah that

digital cliff
#

which is doable if you flick a cap really quickly

#

evidence enough

frozen ingot
#

doesn't tell you much or anything about how responsive the keyboard itself is processing your inputs

frail pilot
#

i have rapid trigger with 0.5 ms

shadow minnow
#

Try 0.1mm

frozen ingot
#

how would you go about measuring the time gap between the key being actuated and the resulting input showing up on screen

frail pilot
#

yea maybe im using the software wrong

shadow minnow
#

Honestly I think most reliable way to test magnetic keyboards would be an external electro magnet that can be turned on and off very fast

frail pilot
#

I just dont know if my wooting is 1k with tach mode off or not

#

its 2k with it off right?

rough osprey
#

huh

frail pilot
#

1k polling rate

#

oh

#

so what does tach mode do?

#

oh I see

#

ok

#

yea im using hte software wrong thjen

#

rip

frozen ingot
#

yeah same, I just found it more prone to jittery inputs

rough osprey
#

poor devs :(

frail pilot
#

fastest i can get it is 5ms

#

lol

#

nvm just got it to 3

#

whats the fastest scan rate with tach mode off?

#

still 1ms?

frozen ingot
#

if you use a reasonably low actuation point and rapid trigger the keyboard is so much more responsive and precise than anything contact-based could dream of matching

#

without tachyon

frail pilot
#

i have highest sense rapid trigger (0.15) with 0.5 acucation

#

i think its a skill issue on my end

frozen ingot
#

it'll take some time getting used to both different actuation point and rapid trigger

frail pilot
#

but yea it will take a bit more time i guess i still heavy press down on the keys

#

and make typos

final flame
#

I can do 17 presses per second

frozen ingot
#

I've been using wooting HE boards since may last year now and yeah I still can't help but bottom out the keys constantly either mm

#

hard to kill habit that one

rough osprey
#

i can do 3

#

they added a second steering wheel

you know the funny part

and I think it buffers up to another 15

so you can attack as much as you want

true quest
#

should have kept my old 502 that kept double clicking to sell as a competitive minecraft mouse lol

not good enough for them

they need mice with specific debounce algorithms

a shame that it's an EV

Mini Coopers always looked cute, this thing though, hella adorable

What's ICE?

#

I don't think you want your car to be frozen

#

I don't think you want your car to have an inside explosion either

#

Sounds like a threat

frozen ingot
#

yet it does have that

cursive summit
#

Ngl that car is hella cute

#

Pricing seems unannounced, prolly same as something like a Volkswagen ID.4?

frozen ingot
#

combustion engines are a pretty amazing engineering feat taken for granted

#

machine spinning hundreds of parts subjected to extreme conditions 24/7 for years reliably

cursive summit
#

I think what made me really like the ID.4 was the HUD

#

I thought that's a cool af feature

frozen ingot
#

yea surprised how lazy car brands have been to adopt such features

#

like the tech has been there for decades now

cursive summit
#

Can you in theory get rid of the driver's indicator panel if you just put all of those metrics on the windshield?

#

Would prolly break some laws somewhere

steep creek
# cursive summit

Last time I heard this feature was delayed for a couple years due to software issues. I’m unsure of the situation now, but they seem to be behind

cursive summit
#

Wdym behind

#

This is the only car I know that has a HUD

steep creek
#

Someone I know opted for a polestar instead of the id3, since it was not ready at the time

#

Mercedes eq series also have a similar hud

frozen ingot
#

night vision?

steep creek
#

Oh yeah I remember that, it was common in the infotainment display I think lol

frozen ingot
#

you mean that sorta stuff?

#

huh

steep creek
#

Those move so unpredictably hah

frozen ingot
#

never seen anything like that over here

#

some automotive fads you guys had never really took off here, and vice versa

#

like how digital lcd/vfd dashboards were a thing in every other car sold on the US market in the 80s

#

you only really saw it on top spec trim models here

#

we never got 8-track either mm

just regular ol compact cassettes for eu car audio market

still telling that amd cant even make it better in their own sponsored title...

gusty kiln
#

pretty crazy to see thje 7900xt ahead of the 4080

#

unless nvidia drivers aren't out yet?

astral haven
#

nvidia has drivers unlike intel

gusty kiln
#

I haven't noticed an update

astral haven
#

released last week

#

apparently

thick elk
#

The question does remain how much did Nvidia optimize, it could be that they quickly rushed something out the door where amd had a lot more time.

astral haven
astral haven
thick elk
#

Of course but the real question is did Nvidia get enough time to reasonably work with.

gusty kiln
#

no mention of starfield, so hopefully I'll get a little bit more performance next update

thick elk
#

This is something that will clear up over time.

astral haven
#

"game ready for starfield"

gusty kiln
#

oh I was looking at a different one

#

wrong date

#

oops

thick elk
#

Besides that, some games are just more AMD favored in general

gusty kiln
#

yeah

#

like COD

astral haven
#

isnt cod also radeon sponsored?

gusty kiln
#

is it?

thick elk
#

I don't think it was sponsored by either of them?

gusty kiln
#

yeah

#

don't see any branding on the main CoD paghe

astral haven
#

i know there have been plenty of radeon sponsored cods in the past

gusty kiln
#

and cod is a super outlier, the only game the 7900XTX even comes close to the 4090

astral haven
#

well now starfield too

gusty kiln
#

yeah

fickle ore
#

@ashen spindle rip AMD

gusty kiln
#

lol no 7000 on that chart

fickle ore
#

wouldnt change much

thick elk
#

Actually interesting to see the 8700k loses to a 2600x, looking back at my past cpu

astral haven
#

7000 was the first generation that amd released in 15 years that was not slower than intels previous generation

thick elk
#

5000x3d was not slower than intel in gaming

#

it had it's wins and losses

astral haven
#

it was substantially slower often

#

and on average it was slower

gusty kiln
#

it trade blows

#

not outright beat

thick elk
#

It also was substantially faster in some cases

astral haven
#

i suppose if you consider 11th gen to exist then sure

#

but not compared to 10900k

astral haven
#

at least not fps wise

#

it did have some big ws in turn times

#

but it had a pretty severe frametime vs average problem

#

10% increased averages vs 5800x but 2% slower 95% and 99%s was a very very frequent thing

#

that aint faster, thats about the same perf

thick elk
#

Well you are taking a subset here, the 5800x3d was a very good upgrade in especially longer lived cpu bound games.
Paradox games, mmo's, factorio

astral haven
#

but not for csgo, dota, valorant, fortnite

ashen spindle
#

also seems to do really weird scaling when it comes to threads as I saw someone else test

#

definitely interresting behaviours

astral haven
#

yea you shouldnt buy intel just because its faster, if it costs 20% more and consumes 50% more power, are you really winning?

fickle ore
astral haven
#

esp for like a 2% w on average

thick elk
# astral haven but not for csgo, dota, valorant, fortnite

Those games run pretty well on hardware, some of those games I mentioned are really struggling cpu wise.
Playing late game hoi4 the substanial upgrade there would be well noticable.
If I played Planetside 2 it could very well be well noticable in the laggy area's

astral haven
#

thats very debatable

fickle ore
astral haven
#

csgo struggles to keep 99%s over 120fps with most cpus

#

when many folks are using 360hz monitors, thats real pain right there

fickle ore
#

csgo2?

astral haven
#

1

thick elk
#

Point remains it was trading blows, better for some use cases worse for others.

astral haven
#

2 isnt even released yet and we are talking 5800x3d

fickle ore
#

Tested 2 today, game's now playable. Can actually see shit and its like 3x brighter

astral haven
fickle ore
#

Stuttered like hell tho

ashen spindle
#

also game seems to literally refuse to run on e cores lol

#

someone testet it by like disabling p cores and it didnt seem to run lol

astral haven
#

i await techpowerup testing, should give a good idea of all the cpus and gpus

ashen spindle
#

wait no not e cores this was about threads

#

eh the guys testing that tomorrow more

fickle ore
#

oh linked above

thick elk
#

Yes that video started this conversation thread

#

you have to be faster with gn video's posted here

fickle ore
gusty kiln
#

7900xt not a bad upgrade, at least for this game

#

usually between 4070ti and 4080 in everything else

thick elk
#

Well it's what I am running after skipping the last two gpu generations.

  • I really don't want to deal with Nvidia's linux drivers
gusty kiln
#

you UV?

#

cuz the power usage is the only concern

thick elk
#

Idle power usage is crap on any high power gpu once you hook 4 monitors onto it, nvidia is no different at that point

astral haven
#

not true

fickle ore
#

Well atleast they're commited to fixing idle power usage

thick elk
#

My gtx 1080 was no better at least, maybe marginally so but it was like 60 vs 70 w idle

astral haven
#

nvidia is something like 2 watts per 4k60 of resolution on 30 and 40 series
amd is at like 5 watts per monitor on top of that 2 watts with an extra 20 watts randomly

#

and nvidias base idle is like 20 watts vs the 40 on 7000

thick elk
#

It's not x wats per monitor, above a certain amount it simply will keep part of the gpu at a much higher state.
I won't exclude that the 30 and 40 series improved here but I somewhat doubt it suddenly becoming significantly better.
Either way it would be mostly academic because I really do not want to deal with their linux drivers.

astral haven
#

there are 4 clock gens

#

each clock gen has multiple power states

#

4k30 or lower is one state, above is a different state (both brands)

#

nvidia has 4 clock gens, but 2 get used up if you need DSC above 4k120

#

so max power is acheived with either quad 4k120 or dual 4k240

#

and you cant do more than dual 4k240 because fuck you

thick elk
#

So how would 3x 1440p 144hz + 1200P 60hz fare here

astral haven
#

on 30 or 40 that should be low power for all 4 clockgens

#

so id say like 12 watts probably? if you have nothing running on all your extra monitors

#

again this is just for empty monitors, if you are rendering more you are rendering more

#

also keep in mind theres also the windows bug (that applies to both nvidia and amd) which your mixing and matching of fps might hit

#

thats +100w on 30 series, +40w on 20 and 40 series, i forget how much it is for 7900xtx but im pretty sure it totals to around 80 or 90?

thick elk
#

Good thing the windows bug is irrelevant for me. Also on amd I can use wayland, on nvidia I would be stuck with xorg which means no vrr

astral haven
#

oh i have not a single clue the power on linux

#

you probably are getting quite severely worse power draw per extra monitor, my steam deck was dying with my external monitor

thick elk
#

Also amd has some issues with multiple vrr monitors, where they have to increase mclk to work with it.

astral haven
#

yea im not even gonna get into vrr issues

gusty kiln
#

lol accidentally found that holding down M1 on a youtube video makes it player 2X

thick elk
#

Still it works fine, and there is 0 scaling in power usages between 2 and 4 monitors on windows and 3 or 4 on windows

ashen spindle
#

wonder if the win11 change to different hz screens also helps tehre

astral haven
thick elk
#

Temperatures and sensors tell me that at least

astral haven
#

i mean you might have been hitting the mixed monitor bug, and its possible the mixed monitor bug forcibly activates all the clockgens

#

but a 1080 should idle at 15 watts, and each monitor extra should add 3-5w (including the first)

#

so total for 1 monitor can be 16ish to 20, 2 monitors can be 18ish to 25ish, 3 monitors 20-30, 4 monitors 22-35

thick elk
#

It was always 60 with my above setup and with 4 monitors in general, this has never been lower, neither on windows nor linux

astral haven
#

yea so you are either running into the windows bug (as i call it) and just linux activates the gpu

#

+2 for a second monitor

thick elk
#

Multi monitor is not 4 monitors.
Power consumption above 2 of them goes up a lot on the 1080

astral haven
thick elk
#

What am I walking back, that my 7900xt on linux does not scale in power usage with 2 or higher 1440p 144hz monitors but stays at a lower power state in windows until I connect the third?

#

That is what I meassured

astral haven
#

again could be hitting the windows bug

thick elk
#

my gtx 1080 had different scaling, and just skyrocketed starting at 3

astral haven
#

mhm sure
again what makes you think its the monitors and not the compositing bug?

thick elk
#

I did run when just using windows 2 monitors on my igp for a while and that lowered it a lot.

#

Still that was years ago so not as clear as the state on my 7900xt

#

I have only looked at the results not at the cause

astral haven
#

ok sure
if you have qlums setup, that is the symptoms

#

but you can run into the bug by adding only 1 monitor

#

and you can activate multiple display controllers using a single monitor

#

but thats again not the fault of the card

thick elk
#

Still the opening statement was for me at least, there was no meaningful difference between the gtx1080 and 7900xt.

#

Just 10w

astral haven
#

this is outright wrong

#

first of all the 1080 is a low power gpu these days so even if you meant 1080 and not nvidia and 7900xt and not amd, noone would have been able to figure that out

#

and second, thats comparing a gpu over 5 years old to a brand new one, and without even knowing about the major bugs that could be affecting you on one and not the other

thick elk
#

I was extrapolating from a lack of actual practical evidence of 4 or more monitor setups on higher powered nvidia cards, I may have been generalizing a bit granted.
Either way I would be pretty clear that I was also only talking in the context of linux here

astral haven
#

"a bit" from one example across 5 years to the entirety of 2 companies (where there are 10s of millions of combinations)

thick elk
#

I will add that the gpu I had before that a hd7950 had roughly similar power on 4 monitors

astral haven
#

well that was in the days prior to power savings

thick elk
#

So yea my knowledge is incomplete but I find it a fair assumption to generalize on a use case that has had high idle power for as long as I can remember

astral haven
#

yea the difference is that things have changed alot in the past while

thick elk
#

Actually the 7950 did go into lower power states with less displays connected as well.

#

Either way, kind of a pointless argument for what was really only a footnote for me.

astral haven
#

the point is that its not that simple

#

if you get a 3090ti, you are gonna be sitting at 120ish watts pretty frequently

#

if you get a 4090, you are gonna be sitting at 40 pretty frequently

#

both with 4 monitors or 2 dsc monitors

thick elk
#

okay, still that seems to be the same order of magnitude the 40w, the 120ish watts would be a noticable uptick

#

40w would not be something to realistically factor in for my use case.

#

At the very least on that front I am glad I no longer have a gpu with a stupid 0rpm mode that kept spinning up and down at the 60w mark. But that was just gigabyte and not on nvidia

#

Anyway I am out /sleep

astral haven
# thick elk 40w would not be something to realistically factor in for my use case.

my 9900k to 5950x "upgrade" increased my pc idle power from 90 watts at the wall to 150 (remember that idle power we have been talking about is at the gpu, and psus are super inefficient at lower loads)
that was enough power to actually noticeably heat up my room which made it intolerable to run my pc during summer and spring 😦

thick elk
#

To some extend yes, but I also have 4 monitors blasting my screen and the number of actually hot days in summer are pretty limited here.

#

Of course I would love it if the power just halved on idle but it's not going to be a major factor here.

astral haven
#

we only have a few days over 100 (40c) but we have many over 90 and i am particularly heat intolerant

thick elk
#

You could see it as a few days above 30 here and a dozen or two with peaks at 25c. So different situation to be sure

astral haven
#

😦 misery

thick elk
#

I would definitely invest in AC at those temps, even have a portable ac myself which I hardly ever use.

astral haven
#

yea indoors we stay under 80

#

we have central air, but my room will heat up too quickly, and the thermometer wont trigger until way too late for my room

thick elk
#

I also have the luxory not share my mancave with my bedroom anymore so at worst I grab my steamdeck and go downstairs.

astral haven
#

luxury that is 😦

#

i also have a new watercooling scheme
i have my fans controlled by the coolant temp, so as long as i dont keep my pc on for more than 10ish minutes, the fans stay off

thick elk
#

I do know the problem of not triggering climate control, I have it with heating in winter.
If it remains warm downstairs heating doesn't trigger even though it cools down more upstairs.

astral haven
#

yea what happened to heat rises
i demand a refund, im on a lower floor and the room upstairs stays cooler than my room

thick elk
#

I have my fans pretty quiet as my nas / server is there as well so no point in tuning it further.
I could go custom loop but really not worth the price for me.

astral haven
#

i went custom loop for just my cpu bc it was on sale and the addiction got worse from there

#

i spent over $200 on quick disconnect fittings, so that i could swap out any component whenever
since then i have not upgraded a single component

#

😭

thick elk
#

If I wanted a custom loop it would mostly be for my gpu, but gpu blocks are expensive and I have a 420 aio on a 7800x3d so not much point in upgrading

astral haven
#

yea i have a 3090 kingpin

thick elk
#

I still have hardline fittings laying around I got on the cheap from EX when that bug was there.

#

If I went custom loop I don't even think I would go hardline, seems like too much of a bother if you want to mess with things.

astral haven
#

came with a clc, and it was damn loud

#

not as loud as the motherboard built in fan on my x570 tho

#

fuck why did i go amd

#

i lost a pcie slot, and the ability to use my computer during the summer

thick elk
#

Well that mobo fan is a pretty specific circumstance.

astral haven
#

it was at the time required if you wanted usb ports or more than 1 gen 4 on am4

flint wolf
#

Is there a tkl wooting coming out soon yall?

thick elk
#

As for loud gpu's I remember when I got my hd7950 with the old amd stock cooler, damn those were absolute garbage

astral haven
#

lel yea i have been collecting, and damn the old stuff is loud

#

not as loud as my xeon phi ofc

thick elk
#

Arctic accellero extreme came to the rescue there.

#

the 7990 stock cooler tho was sweet

#

not r9 nano tier but it was still quite pretty

mild dome
#

Huh, my MB's X570 fan never seems to run, and I got a lot connected to it. Might be that the heatsink my my MB is larger and can absorb the load, or that it's just further away from me and harder to hear

What's some of the worst exampes of FSR2 failures?

ashen spindle
#

bleeding into console games hahahhaha

#

wait till you tell people what consoles used to do with checkerboard rendering

mild dome
#

Geeezus that's nasty
I think I've only touched FSR2 on Remant 2, but found the performance lacklustre so I turned it off

halcyon willow
#

average slimy AMD marketing tactics

ashen spindle
#

that's not even the upscaler at fault thats bad TAA

#

name me a single game that looks better than final fantasy 16

mild dome
#

FS2 likely relies on the developers knowing what they are doing
Which feels like it's getting rare these days

ashen spindle
#

yes but you can change the TAA settings and how it works

#

fsr1 doesnt use taa

mild dome
#

Developers are probably going
"So before we needed to aim for 4K60FPS yeah? Well NOW we can aim for 240P30FPS and use Upscale to 4K60 using FSR and DLSS!"

cursive summit
#

It does TAA in first pass and then applies FSR1.0 render after

frozen ingot
#

wait til people find out you often didn't even get the same game whatsoever on different platforms

ashen spindle
#

fsr1 is just an upscaling into sharpening pass, no info for multiple frames so if you give it TAA it's just because the game does that before anyway

cursive summit
#

Yeah but FSR1 uses TAA for anti-aliasing part, then upscales and sharpens

#

Or maybe that's just game-dependent

ashen spindle
#

that is not part of FSR

#

fsr1 starts after the AA passes already happened

#

yes

#

nobody said it uses 1

cursive summit
#

Expected input
Image should already be well anti-aliased by a technique like TAA, MSAA etc.

#

So it expects an input that is AA'd, but not necessarily

mild dome
vagrant pagoda
#

I have the razor version of that and it has an s

mild dome
#

Don't seem to have an S version
I can only hazard the following guesses:

  1. better cooling, I invested a bit in trying to keep my pc cool
  2. I am not hitting my chipset enough, I have a backup drive, a SATA drive, and an M.2 drive connected to it. Most of which wouldn't be running 90% of the time.
  3. The fan on your X570 has a faulty bearing

I mean, the phantekses in general do
