#

What would you choose? Also is razer good?

cursive summit
#

Finalmouse is just.. there

green remnant
#

Oh thanks

cursive summit
green remnant
#

Why are these good specifically

cursive summit
#

Reliable and good quality I guess

ashen spindle
#

mi300 is coming out and that product alone is projected as >2billion USD sales in 24 alone, the workstation market aint shit

green remnant
cursive summit
#

Depends on what skates they have, usually mouses are good for all games lol

hardy idol
cursive summit
#

Mousemats are the ones where you choose what sort of "type" you want

ashen spindle
#

yes its the next gen server gpu product

hardy idol
#

yeah so.

hardy idol
#

not a typical workstation

ashen spindle
#

yes its not workstation, thats my point, its so much more than the workstation market would be xd

cursive summit
cursive summit
#

Just get a "gaming" quick mousemat and a good mouse from Rtings

#

You'll be fine

hardy idol
#

its not the workstation market
nvidia basically killed off their chances with the quadro lineup

misty saffron
green remnant
#

So you would reccomend lamzu or vaxee over most?

cursive summit
#

For myself, yes, idk what you care about the most

#

I hate bloatware so I avoid brands like steelseries, logi, razer

ashen spindle
#

yes my point is the server market is so much, the workstation market isnt woth for them to consider because it would be less money even if they would get big there

cursive summit
#

If you don't care, go with Razer probably

hardy idol
#

it wasnt always like this

hardy idol
#

but now nvidia took over with the quadro lineup and almost noone is considering a radeon pro anymore

#

which was my point

ashen spindle
#

yes but I dont think even the entire workstation segmet is worth that much lol

hardy idol
ashen spindle
#

not really

hardy idol
#

yeah so.

#

Had AMD kept up, they couldve been a player there

hollow prism
hardy idol
#

but they didnt

#

and by now

ashen spindle
#

yes my point is it's not worth it in relation

hardy idol
#

it will not be worth it to boot the segment to life again.

ashen spindle
#

if they keep up there they wouldnt make even close to that much

#

so sadly its secondary market

green remnant
#

So whats the best mice for gaming in terms of quality, reliability and just good in general

hardy idol
#

they cant even keep up with consumer gpus

ashen spindle
#

thats not my point xD

hardy idol
#

it is my point though

#

even if they tried really hard, they still wouldnt keep up in the workstation segment.

ashen spindle
#

yes and they wont try hard because the market isnt worth it

hardy idol
#

they make the radeonpro WX series

hardy idol
ashen spindle
#

but then it still wasnt worth it xD

hardy idol
#

at this point, they just make the radeonpro wx for fun

ashen spindle
#

yes

cursive summit
#

Lamzu definitely does and they are good

hollow prism
hardy idol
#

@ashen spindle even with the products like mi300 etc and other accelerators

#

are they keeping up?

ashen spindle
#

oh yes, in the markets that matter for revenue

hardy idol
#

or are the A## products from nvidia doing a good job at battling those

ashen spindle
hardy idol
#

not suprising

green remnant
#

What is “4k” on a mouse?

hardy idol
#

polling rate

#

but honestly, idk how much that matters from a certain point

#

they have 8k polling now

ashen spindle
#

yeah thats some older report on it from someone who isnt vert technical

hardy idol
#

and idk if you will gain any noticable benefit from that

ashen spindle
#

sure, dec 6 is the full reveal of everything

hardy idol
#

i guess they're all pretty close here

#

the H100 is already an older card so I guess we'll see nvidia reply to the mi300 stuff soon

#

My laptop just reminded me why im replacing it by freezing yet again

ashen spindle
#

sure but the memory capacity alone is already more than even next gen nvidia can do

#

and thats a important one for datacenter, LLM training especially

hardy idol
#

for that, yeah

#

kinda case dependant on what to go for I guess

#

same with the desktop stuff

#

If I didn't need an ST worker I would've likely gone AMD

#

I mean I can still switch but

ashen spindle
#

I mean its not a big difference

hardy idol
#

idk your have to compare their ipc and clocks

#

but tests show the 13th gen was already better ST

#

and the 14th gen is basically the 13th gen with a ribbon

ashen spindle
#

not even, just a drawn on ribbon dogekek

#

but yeah, its not a clear winner for either one

hardy idol
#

In multicore workloads amd goes ahead but honestly

#

a few years ago we were used to having under 10 cores

neon moth
#

just upgraded my motherboard Cpu and memory, but Pc won’t turn on. Yes the PSU is on anyone have any ideas

ashen spindle
#

check what leds are on on the board and check the manual for error codes

#

and honestly amd isnt the clear winner in MT now but its really a mix of either one winning currently

#

adobe ST benchmark for example:

hardy idol
#

yeah but if I've learnt anything it's that adobe is uhh

astral haven
#

Premier is Mt BTW just bad at it

hardy idol
#

an application with a special uh

#

yknow

ashen spindle
#

oh was it photoshop that was ST heavy and I'm mixing them up

astral haven
#

Yea

#

But photoshop is also mt

#

Just like 4t

#

Or something atrocious like that

hardy idol
neon moth
#

anyone have ideas to why it won’t turn on?

misty saffron
#

no power probably

ashen spindle
#

check what leds are on on the board and check the manual for error codes

misty saffron
#

oh there’s context

neon moth
#

there are no leds on the board

astral haven
misty saffron
#

listen to the beeps

neon moth
#

no beeps it won’t even boot a little

ashen spindle
#

is solidworks even a cpu heavy thing? benchmarks for it list the gpus instead

hardy idol
#

it used to be puget but they don't do it anymore

astral haven
hardy idol
#

Modelling is CPU

misty saffron
#

are there benchmarks for dota 2

astral haven
#

The renderer is awful but is also used and gpu accelerated

hardy idol
#

rendering is gpu but I can render overnight and while I'm at work

halcyon willow
hardy idol
#

I want speed when modelling because that's where it gets frustrating to wait

#

@astral haven I remember we've talked about it before

astral haven
#

Don't recognize the name but I do know I've talked about it before with someone

hardy idol
#

Well, yesterday was the day the laptop became autistic so I've made a quick configuration for my next workstation

ashen spindle
#

i mean looking at old puget numbers

hardy idol
#

motion study

#

is not modelling

ashen spindle
#

is this a modelling part or also render?

#

framerate while rotating

#

I assume thats the thing, framerate while manipulating things?

hardy idol
#

that's probablythe framerate when rotating the model while modelling yes

ashen spindle
#

yeah their up to date article recommends the 14700k but no testing data to show why lol

#

but any framerate test from the 2020 data shows its like all the same nearly and more heavy on the gpu

#

and then file access which also depends on ram, storage etc.

hardy idol
#

Actual operations, like selecting 400 lines etc

#

if I try that rn o

#

on my laptop, it takes like 2 minutes

#

so I kinda don't do patterns much

ashen spindle
#

makes sense lol

hardy idol
#

although I did go through the pain of drawing the wristrest rest

#

and when I selected all lines perpendicular to the plate surface (for filletting)

#

it took so incredibly long and after a few minutes the laptop crashed

#

I did it in 2 or 3 operations now

#

took a lot of time to select each line individually

#

This is why, I will love an upgrade 😂

ashen spindle
#

any proper desktop will be making it 10x better than that laptop xD

hardy idol
#

I know lmao

#

Back then I needed the portability for school

#

i7 9750H RTX 2080 Max Q and i think 24 or 32 gb of ram

#

it wasn't bad but

ashen spindle
#

power limited quite simple

#

because of the format

hardy idol
#

I was coming from a Xeon E5 1660 0 with 64gb of ram and an RX Vega64

ashen spindle
#

hahaha

hardy idol
#

😕

#

It's been an okay laptop though

#

Always loved the keyboard placement and the touchpad/numpad combonation

#

very practical

#

I always said, a laptop is destined to live for 5 years then die

#

It didn't even get to the 5 year mark

ashen spindle
#

5 years then you give it to family so they have something faster to check emails dogekek

hardy idol
#

It was the Netherlands first Zephyrus S with an i7 9750H (I imported it from the States because the 9750H was available there like 3 months earlier)

hardy idol
ashen spindle
#

ah rip

hardy idol
#

sometimes it's fine for hour

#

sometimes it freezes on startup

#

and because it's a fucking laptop

#

can't replace and go

pale sigil
#

I have to say

#

Wish community tools, windows on the steam deck is alright

misty saffron
#

i didn’t like my friend’s lamzu mouse

#

battery life too shit and felt too lightweight

#

2 days vs 2 weeks on my superlight… yeah nah thanks

green remnant
misty saffron
#

i don’t care as long as it’s inconvenient personally

#

and charging any normally wireless device is inconvenient

astral haven
#

my superlight hasnt been plugged in in nearing on 2 years

gusty kiln
#

though a superlight at 125hz polling rate would prob easily last half a year

zenith silo
#

on 4k mine only last a few days, on 1k it lasts over 2 weeks

astral haven
pale sigil
#

That it magnetically chargers

astral haven
#

magnetically = plugged in

pale sigil
#

Fu

astral haven
#

inductively = wireless

pale sigil
#

No wires

#

It's magic

#

Wait

#

Wait

#

It's the same shit

#

I use wireless charging but the magnet stops it from falling

#

So it counts!

halcyon willow
#

wireless mice when they need a wired mousepad to charge

pale sigil
#

Tbh that does boggle my brains

#

Old pic but I love it so much

#

£10!

#

Lights are always off though

final flame
#

imagine having a mouse that needs to charge smh

pale sigil
#

And it has a usb 3.2 port!

pale sigil
final flame
#

not talking wired, talking a wireless mouse that you don't have to charge for months

pale sigil
#

Oh ye

#

I wish g703 accepted AA battery

final flame
#

g305 and MX master both don't ever require charging often
goes to show how much rgb matters towards battery life

pale sigil
#

I liked the 305 but my hands are to big

pale sigil
#

I turned all RGB off and it adds days lol

final flame
#

my g703 I don't ever use, it's just off on standby I don't remember the last time I charged it

#

I just don't like the mouse, I got it as a replacement gaming mouse, but then I just ended up gaming with my MX master

pale sigil
#

I have two because Logitech didn't want my old one back even though I did a warranty because of the side button having no tactile feedback but still working

#

I ended up fixing it myself

#

So now I use the spare for traveling

final flame
#

the only thing I use it for is minecraft pvp, since my mx master isn't good at registering a lot of clicks per second

pale sigil
#

I love it

#

Perfect shape for me

#

I had a g403 for a while

final flame
#

I want logitech to create a gaming mx master without the soft touch finnish

#

maybe I'll make my own eventually, just toss a gaming sensor in there in a custom resin body moulded off of the mx master

#

leave the weight as is, only change the sensor and the body material

pale sigil
#

Well now that I think about it

#

I'm going to explore 3d printing with the new mouse

#

*spare mouse

final flame
#

the mx master is the perfect weight and shape for me
gives me really good control when it comes to microadjustments since it's heavy and has a nice thumb rest

pale sigil
#

I also have a spare Cooler Master MM711

#

Which is brand new in the box

#

It cost me £5 havo

How the heck do you do a global nullable C function pointer in Rust? I can't figure it out.

with my gpro and gpro superlight i can get 2-3 weeks normally, ive honestly forgot it needs to charge sometimes till it dies when im using it 😂

iron wave
#

Someone else helped.

proven furnace
#

Does wooting have its pcb available?

#

Because I’d love to just get that instead of a new keyboard

cunning smelt
#

Does anyone know why my ethernet port at the back of my pc flashes orange? isnt it meant to be green? or is it normal

halcyon moss
#

Check your manual. Could be a speed thing

hardy idol
#

lmfao

#

we're all a bunch of dumbfuck non-manualreaders in V''s eyes.

hardy idol
#

nope

old marlin
#

I mean if you wanna know why it is glowing amber rtfm

#

educated guess would be not a 1G port

#

so it is amber at 1G speed

@fair gull I have read proposal for Article 45, it looks like everyone is talking about this point:

  1. Qualified certificates for website authentication referred to in paragraph 1 shall be recognised by web-browsers. For those purposes web-browsers shall ensure that the identity data provided using any of the methods is displayed in a user friendly manner. Web-browsers shall ensure support and interoperability with qualified certificates for website authentication referred to in paragraph 1, with the exception of enterprises, considered to be microenterprises and small enterprises in accordance with Commission Recommendation 2003/361/EC in the first 5 years of operating as providers of web-browsing services.
    Which theoretically means that if governmental or government-backed CA's certificate is compromised or misused it cannot be removed from web browsers without going with the whole process with EU. Now if government uses its certificates to do mitm attack browser devs and CAs can just revoke this certificate, no problem. The difference after will be that browser devs cannot remove those certificates before the whole process, only users can deactivate them, so it's a big issue with less-technical users who don't even know what it is.
    Overall new proposal looks really cool, you can use your certificate essentially as unified electronic ID for the whole EU, which is nice, the only thing is that they haven't really thought out is revoking and reissuing certificate.

De-clickbaiter?

misty saffron

I like how LTT is prolly one of the mainer reasons such extensions exist

pale sigil

The pic you said looks like there aren't any changes?

Oh it's the title

I'm using that one

#

Does it make a difference if I use "any" USB c cable to connect my wooting or shall I use the cable that came with the keyboard? Background of my question is that I have done neat cable management and I would have to rewire.

cursive summit
#

Micron copying some shite Chinese company? Not happening

umbral heron
twin vessel
#

@umbral heron I am specifically talking about the cable that came with my Apex pro mini that is now to be replaced with the wooting

cursive summit
#

Wooting will come with its own cable, not sure why you wouldn't use that

cursive summit
#

Sandisk had controversy?

#

Not too sure why people use Chrome so much

#

It doesn't really come pre-installed, never has unless you chromebook or buy an android phone

#

Yet it's so damn popular

#

Especially when it's just worse than other browsers lol

crimson wigeon
#

Because Google demands you install it or else

umbral heron
#

Chromium has PWA and hardware support for it going, that's why you can run Wootility and PWA apps like Teams in Chromium
Not so much in Firefox, at least without add-ons

cursive summit
#

Tbf Edge isn't bad nowadays

#

Just use edge if you are a plebian

umbral heron
#

Edge is Chromium too dogekek

old marlin
#

giggle optimum in shambles

umbral heron
#

AI-generated mouse lull

hardy idol
#

their repairability is on another level!

#

Exactly what we need in this society that's already suffering from it's consumerism while trying to promote eco stuff and climate

old marlin
#

generative design is AI

#

eh

#

I mostly agree

#

but if they want to keep developing the market we will see either that or hybrid material mice

#

but also, for a full shell mouse we don't need internal structure already

hardy idol
#

not right now, except gigapressing etc is already starting to gain popularity

#

It's good for manufacturing, terrible from a repairability perspective

old marlin
#

that is not hypercar stuff tho

umbral heron
#

I wonder if it'd be possible to replicate zeromouse design from optimum's video and feed it to AI to further improve it thonk

old marlin
#

in comparison to a unibody

hardy idol
#

whatever is in hypercars right now, will find it's way into consumer road cars within the next 15 years

old marlin
#

doubt it

#

what they show off is SLS metal

#

doesn't scale well

#

I can't imagine drum breaks are that much cheaper to produce and mount

hardy idol
#

bla bla hybrid is never going to be good for road cars
then suddenly
P1 LaFerrari and 918
now there's a lot of hybrid stuff

#

cabbon fibbah

#

aluminium

#

and more exotic materials

old marlin
#

tbh

#

I doubt hybrid will ever take off that big

#

looks more like the majority will transition from ICE to BEV

#

wdym

#

ah

hardy idol
#

sales numbers tell a different story

#

We have a hybrid that doesn't have a rubber band transmission

#

loads of those exist

#

Nope

#

nope

#

both on the rear axle

#

through the same transmission

#

It's not a cvt

frozen ingot
#

I know there's a decent amount of cvt copers out there

#

yeah EV cops would never fly here

#

would be a nightmare wintertime

hardy idol
#

Meh I drift the hybrid

#

ours is fine

#

But a lot of em are economy cars, FWD, indeed CVT, and small

#

Oh yeah

#

they don't like resistance

#

because it's basically a rubber band on two cones

#

hahaha

#

S213 E300e

#

2.0 turbo i4 paired with an electric motor

This is the transmission

#

it's similar to this

me, selling my stock mint condition s2k for thousands, sitting now on a VW 9n 2004 without caring about anything xD

hardy idol
#

This is the E-motor

crude ridge
# hardy idol

e-motors are like something from a futuristic movie

#

this is exceptionally looking 😄

hardy idol
#

this is basically it's layout @prisma crag

#

122hp

#

very small 13.4 battery but ev range is good for around town and a bit more it's like 40-50km
new model got the bigger battery as it's been designed to have the battery from the start

#

new model does over 100km EV range

frozen ingot
#

they have like no EV only range

hardy idol
#

half of it but I personally never use it because I could care less about driving electric

#

I like it for the added performance

frozen ingot
#

I looked at one of those mercs few years ago for company car

hardy idol
#

It's 40-50km, it's nice for around town

frozen ingot
#

its mostly there to curb fuel consumption on the ICE

frozen ingot
#

and for very short EV trips yeah

hardy idol
#

I never really care about fuel efficiency when I drive that

#

because

#

This is the alternative

#

So I'm already miles more efficient

#

Could care less about driving in eco mode in the E300e

#

Sport all the way

#

nah

#

it'll cost more than it'll save

#

in both environmental and financial way

#

as if being on 4 leaf springs, without seatbelts
outcornering modern economy hatches and doing 170kph with steering that's more guesswork than the average TV show wasn't enough

#

Currently I have a different project

#

When that's finished I either start the trabant or the chevy

#

I want a fleetside bed

#

original would be stepside but imo that looks ass

#

Flatbed like rn is useable

#

I kinda want the cameo carrier bed but that's the weakest bed of all, and would reduce its functionality to a similar level of a modern truck

hardy idol
#

yea

#

the time where fuel was like water in america

Yep!

severe phoenix
#

Shows how they did that ad

#

I thought it was CGI

pale sigil
#

That's kinda borderline stupidity complicated

#

For very little reason

severe phoenix
#

Yeah I mean, I figure it was certainly CGI because of how complicated this would be

pale sigil
#

Omg it had a door

reef patrol

But probably cheaper than CGI.

severe phoenix

lol

#

So all those SD OLEDs are going to be open box models, right?

old marlin
pale sigil
#

Open box models?

old marlin
#

They sell refurb ones

severe phoenix
#

I mean those have clearly been removed from packaging

old marlin
#

Which includes open box

severe phoenix
#

Cant be sold as new

old marlin
#

Maybe they don't sell at all

severe phoenix
#

Given away to the employees

#

lol

old marlin
#

Also possible

#

They also need validation devices anyways

Title already tells me Steve is wrong on the technical aspects

reef patrol
#

Which Steve?

old marlin
#

How did they "fix" it?

#

Better scheduler?

#

Core parking?

ashen spindle
#

It’s a whitelist that disables e cores basically

old marlin
#

Amazing fix

#

Thing that you should consider doing anyways

#

If you care about the extra fps

#

So perf difference prob purely comes from the higher available cache for p-cores?

ashen spindle
#

Well some games are profiting from ecores so becomes more of a mess

old marlin
#

Mmh

ashen spindle
#

But yeah it’s a solution for a self inflicted issue

vagrant pagoda
#

I mean that's the AMD fix for X3D

old marlin
#

Only that amd actually did a fix

#

While intel does a very bandaid solution

vagrant pagoda
#

Cherry picking what apps/games run good with clocks or cache and setting affinity is barely a fix

old marlin
#

Yea but the 7800x3d doesn't need it at all

#

Only the 2ccd ones do

#

And i am still questioning their existence

ashen spindle
#

I mean its the same as intel does with APO not like they find out what it runs better with and adjust it based on that

#

difference is e waste cores can make it really bad, worst case v cache gets it and it misses out a the few mhz

astral haven
#

except
with or without e cores, intel is at the top of the graphs
but on the amd side, vcache doesnt guarantee you an improvement

ashen spindle
#

but more importantly the fix cant just be done on 12th gen thats why I said steve was wrong without even seeing the video

astral haven
#

why not?

ashen spindle
#

it would likely regress performance because uncore speed drops when unparking e cores

#

on ADL

astral haven
#

🤷 and this is not fixable why?

ashen spindle
#

becuase thats how alder lake is, they fixed it on raptor lake

astral haven
#

uncore clock can be manually adjusted by the end user
why not a bios update?

#

again intel could chose to fix it, they just CBA

ashen spindle
#

sounds like what they would never do for something tiny like this

#

since that would then mean overclocking technically

astral haven
#

-_-
obviously they would never do it, but im saying they easily could

ashen spindle
#

is that even something you can change from outside of bios while its running?

astral haven
#

yes

#

literally only thing that cant be changed is CL

#

every other clock and voltage can be changed

solar reef
#

Som1 got a good fast Mouse for me ?

old marlin
#

Dav3 wired

ashen spindle
#

still seems like something that wouldnt work if they at first had to make it drop uncore for that at all so just ignoring a ghz drop sounds like something not every cpu could do or just crash most

astral haven
#

just because intel wouldnt do it doesnt mean we shouldnt expect the best

#

we are paying money for product, and a 10% boost is quite extreme

ashen spindle
#

sure but out of warranty OC tool vs something very clearly keeping in the OC and tested guidelines is a big difference froma legal standpoint alone

astral haven
#

its really not

#

even if it is not an "oc tool" they can make it a beta bios and say no warranty from that regardless of oc status

vagrant pagoda
#

Intel hates people running old products XD

#

So it won't happen

astral haven
#

^

#

yep

vagrant pagoda
#

It's total possible

astral haven
#

its not because it couldnt be done, but get wrecked for not buying our "latest" and "greatest" products

vagrant pagoda
#

I bet it only effects 13th because it shares bios/microcode

ashen spindle
#

I also said it cant just be done by just letting it be done on that, I never said its impossible

vagrant pagoda
#

If there was a simple way to make it 14th only, Intel would have done that

13th gen someone will make it work if intel doesnt since its literally the same silicon so I dont see anything bad happening

vagrant pagoda
#

Lmao

#

Editing microcode/bios isn't easy

ashen spindle
#

oh sure but possible and there are people who do nothing but that sort of shit and sleep

astral haven
#

its been a whil e since we had hacked microcode

ashen spindle
#

when was the last time where all you needed to change would be the check that it says 13 instead of 14 (or whatever hexcode it checks for)

#

is it even the bios setting thats disabled or the desktop APO option that blocks if not 14th gen?

astral haven
#

6-7
7-8
8-9

#

9-10 not this

ashen spindle
#

they had some software that made a difference?

astral haven
#

yup

ashen spindle
#

which ones

astral haven
#

functioning whatsoever

ashen spindle
#

I dont follow

astral haven
#

9k "wasnt compatible" with z170

#

6k "wasnt compatible" with z370

#

bit of bios hackery and thats solved

ashen spindle
#

yeah and I remember people hacking that after a bit

#

but not like you had big in socket upgrades those gens even if that was possible nor were boards as expensive so I just think the incentive wasnt there

astral haven
#

8100 was a killer cpu and would have been even more killer if the boards were half the price

ashen spindle
#

I have that one lel

#

needed something cheap while they replace my 8700k that killed itself on first week

astral haven
#

lmao yikes

#

8350k was also sweet
last processor besides the new xeons to support overclocking ecc ram

#

and no i dont count taking ram, disabling ecc and overclocking that to be overclocking ecc ram

#

oh wait no nvm the 9350k did too

ashen spindle
#

oof intel missed its chance to get the #1 spot in the top500

#

seems aurora was not tuned in time for a submission

#

and next year el capitain will be so far ahead of it

astral haven
#

they run every month wdym?

ashen spindle
#

the top500 list is a yearly thing

astral haven
#

oh right not every month, just november and june

ashen spindle
#

well not set dates because the conferences might be different but yeah

#

i guess there is a small chance el capitanis not done with the rollout in time for the spring submission

astral haven
#

either way amd hitting intel where it hurts
at the top of graphs

#

and microsd and 3.5 jack

#

and the batteryless mode is useable since the battery is hotswap

#

xcover version of actual flagship when?

#

main cam is under half an inch sensor 😬

ashen spindle
#

oh I also peaked a second into reddit about mi300, people were saying H100 is better because they compared the numbers gotten from the amd presentation that were sustained vs nvidias peak numbers lmfao

astral haven
#

eh

#

given 800w you can sustain peak numbers for quite a while

ashen spindle
#

so?

#

that goes for both lol

#

but comparing numbers where on top500 they are like 50% difference on the same system is quite a bit off

astral haven
#

wait how many gpus were nvidia and amd showing off?

#

i cant imagine they went over the limits of infiniband/nvlink respectively

ashen spindle
#

for the top500 submissions?

astral haven
#

amd and nv were showing off top500 subs?

ashen spindle
#

oh for that nah

#

nah that was just some reddit post about the numbers amd showed a while ago

#

nothing new since then, gotta wait a month

astral haven
#

hmm i cant find how much memory is addressable on mi300?

#

it seems that its limited to what its got on board the die

#

so max of 512 via cpu

ashen spindle
#

dont think that was made known yet

hardy idol
#

@ashen spindle @astral haven
H200 is announced

astral haven
#

what do you think we were talking about?

hardy idol
#

Probably that hahaha I joined in later

#

Or rather, now

ashen spindle
#

yeah h200 is just more of the same though

astral haven
#

h200 = h100 tho practically

hardy idol
#

I mean

#

classic move yknow

ashen spindle
#

and GH200 not this year

hardy idol
#

small refresh

ashen spindle
#

its basically just a bigger memory SKU

astral haven
#

and its not even their biggest memory sku since h100 nvl already exists and is 1 package

hardy idol
#

lol

astral haven
#

its more scalable tho since you can only do 128x h100nvl where you can do 256xh200 or normal h100

hardy idol
#

if intel says

#

up to 5600 MT/s

#

for a processor

#

Is that a hard limit or

astral haven
#

no

#

thats the max they will guarantee will work however without it being called an oc

#

its the same as 5200mt/s on amd

hardy idol
#

Yeah right. a memory OC is not advisable or

astral haven
#

which is real unfortunate, because in the past they used to guarantee that speed at max capacity, now they only guarantee that speed for 1 stick per channel just the same as amd has always done

astral haven
hardy idol
#

Ahhh

#

I will have 14700k

astral haven
#

why

hardy idol
#

but how high are we daring to go

astral haven
#

6000

#

6000 is still the sweet spot

hardy idol
astral haven
#

what

#

7800x3d has very few apps wherre it doesnt win in pure ST

hardy idol
#

You reckon it'd defeat the i7 in solidworks workloads, mainly modeling?

#

And I don't really feel it with the X3D stuff, i heard it had some issues

astral haven
#

id be shocked if it didnt win

#

its very very good for speeding up poorly optimized apps

smoky frigate
#

I hear memory compatibility is especially spotty with amd at the momen

sharp badger
#

Using this with my 12700K

astral haven
#

the 7950x3d has issues because its half x3d and half normal

hardy idol
#

solidworks is amongst the worst fucking

#

optimised applications ever

astral haven
#

exactly

hardy idol
#

there's at least 7 ways to do anything

astral haven
#

i mean performance

#

btw you might legit get a better upgrade from faster ssd

hardy idol
#

Okay wait.

#

let me switch to desktop

astral haven
#

might want to check disk usage while selecting stuff
and i mean disk usage in resource monitor not task manager

hardy idol
#

laptop has a slight VRAM issue LMAO

#

so im using the family pc now

hardy idol
#

ive always been skeptical about this

#

because solidworks files are

#

just a few MB

astral haven
#

i say might bc i have no idea

hardy idol
#

I dont think so personally

astral haven
#

ICE speeds up 10x with a faster ssd

hardy idol
#

The file is loaded up into the RAM and edited there I guess?

#

its a few MB only

#

so it always fits

astral haven
#

something that takes 2 minutes to do doesnt seem like its all in ram

hardy idol
#

But it doesnt mean

#

that I wont go for a fast SSD

#

I want more info on this 7800X3D vs the i7 14700k in solidworks

astral haven
#

dont we all :/

dreamy tendon
#

faster SSDs can provide more random reads and write performance, which would prob provide more of an improvement instead of seq w/r

sharp badger
#

7900X for Productivity imo.

astral haven
#

not solidworks

hardy idol
#

solidworks is a very uh

#

lets just call it autistic

#

application

#

historically, intel FTW for solidworks

astral haven
#

nah thats an insult to all people with ASD

hardy idol
#

solidworks LOVES high clocks

dreamy tendon
#

then the intel cpu would prob do better

#

x3d chips are clock limited out of the gate

vagrant pagoda
#

Autodesk inventor loves x3d

astral haven
#

we dont have current menchbarks

hardy idol
#

yeah because pugetsystems are fucktards who dont test for solidworks anymore

sharp badger
#

Would the CAD applications utilise the L3 cache at all?

astral haven
#

ofc

hardy idol
#

linustechtips did test solidworks iirc in a video but

smoky frigate
#

14th gen intel CPUs also get APO, which makes e-cores a lot better. in typical intel fashion, this software solution to e-cores being crap is not supported on 12th and 13th gen processors LOL

hardy idol
#

the controversy

dreamy tendon
#

APO only works on 2 games

hardy idol
dreamy tendon
#

you'd pretty much be praying for intel to implement more support

smoky frigate
#

which they will inevitably do, for applications too

#

but yeah, not yet definitely

dreamy tendon
#

it is promising, just in typical tech fashion releasing something that's still in infancy stage

astral haven
#

and theres no guarantee of inevitability

hardy idol
#

iirc

#

clockspeed and cache are still defining factors for CAD

astral haven
#

its likely few people will buy 14th gen because of how awful it is, and they wont dedicate any dev time to it

hardy idol
#

i might do it because no use buying a 13th now but its definitely not worth upgrading to if you have a 12th or 13th gen

vagrant pagoda
smoky frigate
#

and to be fair, why support only 2 random old games... wonder if it has measurable advantages in other apps/games they have tested

ashen spindle
#

most apps will just get updates where e cores arent making performance worse and then APO wont make any difference anymore either

hardy idol
vagrant pagoda
#

Now size of cache is important the worse your program is optimized

astral haven
#

or if you have that much data to work on at a time

stray heart
#

how do i use t he f1 f2 bootons on my wooting 60he

#

??

vagrant pagoda
dreamy tendon
#

FN + 1/2/etc

stray heart
hardy idol
#

but

vagrant pagoda
#

Cache to memory is latency not bandwidth limit

hardy idol
#

if i got a core i9 now\

astral haven
hardy idol
#

im not sure how much better it would perform

dreamy tendon
#

you hold down the FN key, and then press the number keys like 1, 2, 3, etc corresponding to F1/F2/F3

vagrant pagoda
#

So if the CPU can feed the cache with predictable data

astral haven
vagrant pagoda
#

You won't need massive cache

#

But that is almost never the case

astral haven
#

it happens tho

hardy idol
#

i9 has ever so slightly more cache, but the i7 can probably be clocked higher because less heat generation

dreamy tendon
#

have you checked in wootility your layers?

hardy idol
hardy idol
#

watch me buy the i9 and disable all E cores

dreamy tendon
#

your second layer should show u all the bindings for when you hold down FN key

vagrant pagoda
#

In my experience the irony is the more unstable the program the faster it runs on more cache lol

hardy idol
#

its not necessarily unstable

dreamy tendon
#

would the built in benchmark of solidworks be of any use?

astral haven
#

there isnt a built in benchmark for the non rendering aspect

sharp badger
astral haven
#

rendering it who cares you can go do something else while it renders, the part that is slow is manipulating objects

hardy idol
#

autocad is comparable but autocad was rebuilt completely from the ground up a few years ago

#

so its a

#

'better' application

#

more smooth i guess

hardy idol
#

inventor is still the

#

old thing whatever it was?

#

our company has used inventor but until like, 2013 i think?

hardy idol
#

and im unsure

#

but then the AMDs are kinda

#

ehh

vagrant pagoda
#

Inventor and Revit are the flagships

hardy idol
#

wait

#

so thats the story

#

autocad is just the thing they promote the fuck of though for students etc

#

but if you wanna get serious you still need to pay for inventor

#

makes sense

#

but why not revise your top tier application

vagrant pagoda
#

I did inventor in school

#

Inventor is for like an entire truck

sharp badger
#

I'd choose AMD if i'd build a pc today, the EOL 1700 socket is meh but i have a 12700K so i can still upgrade

vagrant pagoda
#

Not one part

#

Revit is for an entire house down to the screws

hardy idol
#

so i could go ryzen now

#

and switch back to whatever is better

#

once AMD and Intel have both shown their new products at the end of next year

#

AMD beginning of next year but no comparison yet ofc

astral haven
#

but also avoid 14th gen

#

its actually 13th gen

hardy idol
#

god I thought I was going to get a burner gpu but i guess i might even do it for the cpu

#

i mean the timing of my laptop sucks balls

#

because nvidia refresh and amd new shit coming next year

astral haven
#

refresh is 🤷

sharp badger
#

There's always new stuff coming

hardy idol
smoky frigate
#

there is always the next big thing coming, and there is never an ideal time for getting a new computer

hardy idol
#

but i guess when it does this

hardy idol
#

buy intel and itll be shit from the get go, except for the performance

#

buy amd and itll be shit within half a year

#

because next gen Zen

#

will be gucci

smoky frigate
#

that's how it works!

#

or buy fapple and get milked even more

sharp badger
#

Those Macbook Pro displays are damn good though

hardy idol
#

yknow

#

fuck it ill just get the cheaper 7800X3D

#

because both gens are kinda meh rn theyre both kinda at the end

astral haven
hardy idol
#

and if I choose AMD I might get to reuse the mainboard

astral haven
#

unlikely

hardy idol
#

oh

#

fuck

#

but

sharp badger
#

AM5 will probably be supported until 2026

astral haven
#

wont be a cpu fasterrer enough to warrant upgrading on the same socket

hardy idol
#

7800X3D better resale maybe?

astral haven
#

maybe

hardy idol
#

who knows i guess ill gamble

astral haven
#

definetly less value lost

hardy idol
#

itll be an upgrade either way

smoky frigate
#

AMD is a safe bet

hardy idol
#

i had a 9750H rn

#

so

#

I guess we will see what the AMD fucker does

sharp badger
#

Black Friday is like a week~ away though

hardy idol
#

honestly its cheaper so indeed less value lost but I kinda wanna see what AMD does for solidworks nowadays

hardy idol
smoky frigate
#

been encoding videos at 4K for days now, with the 12700KF running at or close to 100 degrees. might need a new CPU soon lol!

hardy idol
#

i like you

#

taskbar at the top kinda guy

#

I did that too when i used windows as my main os

#

and it was very easy when i used the wacom

#

because easier to move the pen up than crunch your hand for down

smoky frigate
#

that's GNOME, it has a small bar on the top and I also have an application bar on the left. very efficient

hardy idol
#

yeah but i wanted to say ii did it on windows

#

because i never did it on arch

#

i never really used the tablet anymore i guess

sharp badger
#

Depends here it's the lowest it have been since release

hardy idol
#

7800x3d here

#

This is the 5800 X

#

last year

#

the lowest price (green) was pretty constant during november

#

actually became less after black friday

#

while the average

#

got spiked to be able to present people with huge deals

#

I dont think I'll wait for black friday

sharp badger
#

It dipped here during Black Friday or rather Cyber Monday, it was actually the best during ''Christmas sales'' (5800X3D)

smoky frigate
#

what about the 7950x3d? seems to do considerably better in applications than the 7800x3d, and is about 250bux more

hardy idol
#

yeah so

#

if im going to have a burner cpu

#

would i spend 300 more

smoky frigate
#

okay, in that case probably not. but conversely, why spend about 400bux on a mid cpu now, if spending ~60% more will get you one of the best consumer CPUs that you will not have to upgrade for a while

ashen spindle
#

that is cpu rendering, thats different

#

that obviously is much more multi threaded

hardy idol
#

it is written

smoky frigate
ashen spindle
#

I mean it could be one way or the other those things arent all the same

#

if they have the renderview AVX accelerated zen4 is going to be much faster, could be multi threaded but only 4 cores etc.

smoky frigate
#

only about 10% slower in single thread according to PassMark, which is pretty gud

hardy idol
#

like

astral haven
#

optane

hardy idol
#

mhm

#

idk which or what about those

#

kinda was defaulting to 2x a 990 Pro 2TB

astral haven
#

$1/gb approx, between the same and 10x faster depending on the workload
up to 100x in some workloads

hardy idol
#

Though I might go for 2x 1TB and then a big harddrive or 2.5 SSD for storage

astral haven
#

beeg nvme is now getting reasonable for storage
with optane you would go 400gb optane (at most) then 2tb or 4tb normal nvme

vagrant pagoda
#

Rip optane

astral haven
#

yea well we still got one last gen

#

optane as always is flat line performance

pale sigil
#

Anyone here using home assistant

hardy idol
#

oh god

#

the memory issue

#

with amd

#

i recall it now

vagrant pagoda
#

Yep I wish 5800x wasn't a grand still

astral haven
#

zooom

hardy idol
#

ill just get a samsung 990 pro then

#

because optane too expensive

astral haven
#

thats how it be :/

vagrant pagoda
#

905p is cheap ag

hardy idol
astral haven
#

yea you can get a 905p for cheap

vagrant pagoda
#

I got my 960gb for 250

astral haven
#

you wouldnt get 2tb optane

vagrant pagoda
#

With 100% life

astral haven
hardy idol
#

why does ryzen

#

prefer hynix

#

over samsung

vagrant pagoda
#

Yeah 905p 960GB is 299 new in ebay

astral haven
#

"new"

hardy idol
#

and to that I say

astral haven
#

1/10th the speed tho

vagrant pagoda
#

Yeah and 905p is 10 times faster

#

Easily

#

If not more

hardy idol
#

yes but

astral haven
#

also i would advise getting a smaller optane

hardy idol
#

infinite money is not for me

vagrant pagoda
#

It's my boot drive

astral haven
#

small optane is cheaper

vagrant pagoda
#

And I literally never seen Windows say more than 1% utilization

hardy idol
vagrant pagoda
#

Lol

#

The average latency is just a flatline

hardy idol
#

listen so

#

i have 2 boot drives and a big storage drive

astral haven
#

what

hardy idol
#

2x m.2 and one 2.5

hardy idol
#

but solidworks

vagrant pagoda
#

Then get a second GPU and run into VM like a real nerd

hardy idol
#

@prisma crag I decided to switch it up and get burner parts for the processor

#

since youre the most likely to know this

#

if i get a 7800x3d as a burner

#

and get the 6000 cl30 ram everyone recommends

#

why is the

#

samsung vs hynix shit still going on

astral haven
#

you dont need to worry about it if you are buying not for OC

#

on amd?

hardy idol
#

holy mother of god

#

64.000

#

😉

astral haven
#

intel likey da speed

hardy idol
#

ill look for it

astral haven
#

yea maybe but good luck dailying an xmp of that

hardy idol
#

do we want hynix stuff

#

and is this how you can tell

#

last time i looked at this was when ryzen 2 came out lmao

#

taichi board too expensive for a burner setup

#

hahaha

#

taichi looks good tho

astral haven
#

yea but booting and stable are different things

Intel: “nobody is buying our 13th gen refresh?!?! , Quick, make E Cores actually work!”

#

Fuck Intel lol

hardy idol
#

watch me paint it

old marlin
#

who tampered with it

hardy idol
#

so 6400 is the way to go?

#

is what i read?

#

and higher is possible theoretically?

pale sigil
#

Guess I better get the Pi out

hardy idol
#

If I "accidentally" get a higher speed kit I can detune it I assume

#

QVL for the board right

#

ok good lord

gentle osprey
#

It’s not

hardy idol
#

i have no clue but

astral haven
#

if you want capacity you will not be able to hit 6400

hardy idol
#

what do i even

#

select here to filter more

astral haven
#

32 ez
48 good luck

gentle osprey
#

Yeah Kingston is solid

#

And yeah good luck with 48

hardy idol
#

why

latent mural
#

Does anyone know how to replace the springs for lighter ones? I tried with my other switches but it's not big enough

hardy idol
#

I know how to

gentle osprey
hardy idol
#

ahh okay

#

would you guys go for the 7800 kits

#

or the 6400

astral haven
#

7800 aint happening

hardy idol
#

for 32?

#

can ram be detuned? because then i can run a 7800 kit at 6400 speed if needed

#

right?

astral haven
#

yes
now look up prices lel

gentle osprey
#

Yes you can tune the speeds down

#

But look at price diff

#

Yea

hardy idol
#

130 for 6400

#

both 32gb

astral haven
#

optane will get you more performance than that

hardy idol
#

okay so

astral haven
#

and its like $20 more than the diff there

hardy idol
#

optane is not an option

astral haven
#

yes it is

hardy idol
#

No

astral haven
#

its $100 fam

hardy idol
#

I need space

astral haven
#

youll be fine

hardy idol
#

No

astral haven
#

what 3 cards do you need?

hardy idol
#

cards?

astral haven
#

yes

hardy idol
#

lets address this after the memory issue ok

astral haven
#

optane goes in pcie not m.2

hardy idol
#

@prisma crag

#

prices in euros

#

but if they give this string of characters

#

and i buy that exact thing

#

then?

astral haven
#

🎲 gamblin

#

die lottery

#

more likely

hardy idol
#

gamble at 120 then, or 206

astral haven
#

120

hardy idol
#

does more moner equal more chance

#

130 i mean

astral haven
#

easier to just not get gskill usually

#

i rolled the dice and failed with my gskill kit

#

😦

hardy idol
#

return it?

astral haven
#

nah newegg refused

hardy idol
#

what is the worst that can happen though

astral haven
#

drop it to 6000 and you paid what is it double vs the value of the ram?

hardy idol
#

wha

smoky frigate
#

gskill is hit and miss. the sticks I used to have were bretty good though

astral haven
#

oh right eu pricing

hardy idol
astral haven
#

so you just would have overpaid 20%

hardy idol
#

i dont think itd matter at all

misty saffron
#

wtf

astral haven
# hardy idol

notice how these two are the same latency despite the clocks 🤣

hardy idol
#

shut

#

im fine with white tax but those are hideous

ashen spindle
hardy idol
#

damn

#

good ram

misty saffron
#

must be good

hardy idol
#

its in the name

#

it must be good

#

yes

misty saffron
#

"just buy good_ram"

hardy idol
#

IF THEY HAD IT

#

IN THE STORE

#

I would

#

they look pretty good

#

how

#

theyre

#

HAHAHA WHAT

#

why would they do that

#

its lonely

#

so sad

#

oh

#

and its the fucking

#

never knew what to think about these

hardy idol
smoky frigate
#

are you going to look at them?

hardy idol
#

yeah

misty saffron
#

actually can't find what you're talking about

#

i don't think ai understood the assignment either

hardy idol
#

jesus

#

let me clean that

#

but uh wha

smoky frigate
hardy idol
#

painting ram isnt advised either is it
