[deft raptor]

CAD simulation ?

[umbral heron]

VMs and LXC

Praised be nested virtualization

[balmy vector]

Pikmin on the oled

[steady sail]

i wanna play on bazzite just for fun for a month

[unkempt lake]

I know on intel it just enables MCE

On amd guessing it just turns on PBO?

[deft raptor]

Oh yeah, CachyOS also offer handheld edition for Steam Deck and similars ones

[deft raptor]

I should get around enabling PBO instead of leaving on auto

[balmy vector]

I know on my asus board it says it makes it go past the normal specifications for voltage etc. so probably similar to mce than anything

[unkempt lake]

I could boot into my msi bios and check but... can't be assed rn

Lol

[deft raptor]

With UEFI, you can directly boot into bios without effort

[unkempt lake]

Cant really oc a 7800x3d anyways

[unkempt lake]

I know

I'm just... playing games rn lol

[deft raptor]

Ah, fair reason

[unkempt lake]

I dont even have pbo on i just don't see the point

As well the improvements are marginal on a 7800x3d

@balmy vector do you run pbo?

[balmy vector]

I have it on auto

So its pretty much off

[karmic bluff]

Dang

7950x3d and 7900xtx is crazy

Why not just go for a 4090 tho

[deft raptor]

He can keep the cpu and could upgrade his gpu 2 or 3 times

9800x3d is kinda special because they changed how they lay out the extra cache to make overclocking possible, that destroys other previous x3d in gaming benchmarks

[steady sail]

its stupidly expensive

and he uses linux

[umbral heron]

XTX was less than half of the price of 4090

[unkempt lake]

Price difference

I run a 7800x3d + 7900xtx

[steady sail]

me with 5800x3d + 6700 xt

[unkempt lake]

its not a race

[deft raptor]

Here with 5700x3d + 7900 gre

[unkempt lake]

also this is still a good system

[steady sail]

i know but i wanna get a new gpu as its struggling on 1440p

[karmic bluff]

Interesting, I just went for 7800x3d

[unkempt lake]

I mean nico runs a 9700k + 2080 and it still runs everything just fine

[unkempt lake]

Use fsr

[steady sail]

even with fsr

[karmic bluff]

Same except 4080 super

[unkempt lake]

What do you consider "struggling"

[steady sail]

fps dropping from 80 to 40

with FSR performance

[karmic bluff]

1440p? I think your cpu and gpu can run more than that

[unkempt lake]

That's a you problem then

[karmic bluff]

Idk how much mine can run, haven’t tested yet

[steady sail]

not in newer games

[unkempt lake]

I mean look @glass stag is using my old parts and he gets good framerates in literally everything

[steady sail]

like FF16 stucks at 60 fps

[karmic bluff]

You sure it’s not just other issues?

[deft raptor]

I should test a random game, Control will do nicely. Gotta leave on dx11 because dx121 is hot trash fire for linux.

[unkempt lake]

Ff16 is the only game that he'd had some drops with but they weren't bad

Like it was still playable

[ashen spindle]

lower mid range last gen card cant run current gen 1440p games that well, wtf are you all surprised about

[steady sail]

but i set the settings to LOW

[ashen spindle]

6700xt is alright but its not a mid or high range card lol

[unkempt lake]

Most settings dont do anything in ff16 performance wise lol

[deft raptor]

6800xt is interesting one because it matches 7800xt in terms of performance as I remember

Ah, 6900xt ?

[unkempt lake]

Nico be playing on dlss balanced or quality at 1440p and getting fine framerates

On a 2080

[karmic bluff]

Also how is the energy efficiency for 9800x3d

[ashen spindle]

liek sure this is ultra settings but its still more than you will get on 1440p on newer games

[deft raptor]

Ah, 6800xt still does match 7800xt according to this part : https://gamersnexus.net/gpus/amd-radeon-rx-7900-gre-gpu-review-benchmarks-vs-rx-7900-xt-7800-xt-rtx-4070-super#rx-7900-gre-game-benchmarks

[deft raptor]

1080p is very cpu-bound

[unkempt lake]

Native 1440p? Yeah ok some drops in some newer games are to be expect but 1440p with upscaling is fine

[analog sinew]

very interesting graph

[ashen spindle]

mhhh yes I love that the solution is just run at lower resolution and smear vaseline on my screen

[unkempt lake]

Well it looks better than 1080p native tbh

[ashen spindle]

I like my screen vaseline and artifact free tyvm

[unkempt lake]

Dlss on a 1440p screen looks fine

[ashen spindle]

nah

[umbral heron]

DLSS is amazing for one thing only - removing TAA artifacts

[analog sinew]

well devs dont care

shit framerate or vaseline choose wisely

[unkempt lake]

Well i can tell you with nico's monitor upgeade he went from a 1080p 144hz monitor to a 1440p 165hz monitor, keeping the same gpu, games look a lot better

1440p with dlss looks better than a native 1080p display by far

I think yall havent used 1080p for gaming in a while

[ashen spindle]

I dont need to use it to know if i see upscaling artifacts its bothering me and shit

[gusty kiln]

I would only use dlss/fsr max quality on 1440p

Anything after that is mush

[ashen spindle]

below 4k I wouldnt use upscaling

[steady sail]

most of the time i use Balanced

[ashen spindle]

and frame gen not below 100fps base

[gusty kiln]

But the game I play the most right now can be ran on a potato so no issue for me

[unkempt lake]

Still better than a native 1080p

Not as good as native 1440

[steady sail]

i enjoyed native 1080p

[rough patrol]

i cant wait to get a new gpu for monster hunter, open the game and then go buy a more expensive new gpu

[gusty kiln]

Native anything will always look better to me than high level of upscale

[ashen spindle]

doesnt matter for the original point that if a gpu isnt doing hot for 1440p anymore the solution is not to use fsr and be happy with it

[unkempt lake]

With dlss quality or FSR ultra quality i think it looks fine

[gusty kiln]

I always stay native for fps games

Any form of dlss/fsr will just turn to mush on fps games

[steady sail]

if i would have a high-end card yeah sure

[frozen ingot]

its acceptable for most part but could def be better

[steady sail]

but im using a middle ground card for 1440p gaming

[frozen ingot]

but I'd rather that than shitty framerate

[unkempt lake]

Not like i really need those things with a 7900xtx unless im playing... stalker

Lol

[umbral heron]

If it holds 70fps on 1440p medium then I'll be satisfied

[steady sail]

i mean when i played LiS DE i had to lower graphics to medium and use FSR

and thats how i reached 70fps

and its not that great

[distant tapir]

Is that the newest one?

[steady sail]

yeah

i enjoyed the game but still

its not a game where the graphics are sooo nice and stuff

[deft raptor]

Solid fps but the location in Control is very barren for now

I need have be in different location to work out the real workload

I did have stable 120 fps in the game Control with high profile and CONTROL - HDR+Ultrawide+DLSS+RT Patch mod

[ocean jackal]

Like video editing playing high demanding fps games using ray tracing shaders etc

[ashen spindle]

9800x3d is the best for gaming

[ocean jackal]

can I run this at 20k fps in gd with it (I need to be able to do this don’t ask questions it will confuse you)

[ashen spindle]

It’s the best gaming cpu, if that can’t do it no cpu can

[ocean jackal]

also I need 0 Input delay

[ocean jackal]

ok I’ll get that then

[reef patrol]

Same as normally.

[magic minnow]

Good luck

[ocean jackal]

Can I have the full name having Trouble looking it up

[ocean jackal]

Wdym good luck im just shopping

[umbral heron]

AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D?

[ashen spindle]

Yes that

[ocean jackal]

Ok

[ashen spindle]

It might not be in stock because it’s quite new so could take a bit to show up

[ocean jackal]

Ok

[deft raptor]

Oh wow, my idle cpu temp is 30 compared to 53 on my previous cpu 3600 with dried out thermal paste on the OEM fan

[ashen spindle]

Temperatures between different CPU’s can’t really be compared

[ocean jackal]

I found this https://www.microcenter.com/product/687907/amd-ryzen-7-9800x3d-granite-ridge-am5-470ghz-8-core-boxed-processor-heatsink-not-included

[ashen spindle]

Yes

[deft raptor]

Yeah, true. Can't compare it except when repasting for 3600 which I wont because I can't be arsed to do it

[ocean jackal]

it’s on stock at Walmart but way overpriced

[deft raptor]

Walmart allows to have 3rd party sellers in it

Which might list items with prices higher than usual.

[magic minnow]

Hoping they do another drop for it within the next 5 hours

[umbral heron]

It's in stock here

[deft raptor]

I am surprised nobody here has asked anyone living near microcenter to make a run and pay him for this cpu with shipping

[umbral heron]

Imma wait for 11950X3D and hope it'll have 2 v-cached CCDs

[steady sail]

i want AM6 already

[magic minnow]

Lucky :c

[steady sail]

but thats gonna release in 2028 minimum

[deft raptor]

Yeah, I have accepted my consequences of my choices with 5700x3d in use.

[magic minnow]

I was gonna wait for the 9950x3d but seems like it’s just gonna be the same :c

[umbral heron]

Same, I could give my CPU to my brother and have an excuse to upgrade

[steady sail]

i mean im gonna be fine on the 5800x3d

for a few more years

but GPU side not really

[deft raptor]

lol, I can't remember everyone else's gpus

[steady sail]

i bought my 6700 xt a 18 months ago xd

[deft raptor]

Ah, yeah, if it was 6800xt, you also basically have 7800xt in terms of performance

[steady sail]

2023-04-07

[deft raptor]

I was at 5700xt, upgraded to 7900 gre. All is good

[magic minnow]

4090 for me

[steady sail]

i dont have 2200 euro on my account

[umbral heron]

Waiting for UDNA

[steady sail]

• i dont need ngreedia shit xD

yeah i guess im just gonna wait till february or so

[deft raptor]

Ah, for me I basically waited 5 years between gpu upgrades

[umbral heron]

8800XT sounds nice

[deft raptor]

Classic number 8800

[unkempt lake]

Realistically your 7900xtx will still be good by then

[steady sail]

the thing is i went from r7 360 -> gtx 1070 -> 6700 XT

[unkempt lake]

I mwan... the xtx is overkill for your usage

You said it yourself @umbral heron

[umbral heron]

Last 3 GPUs I changed every 2 years, but that's mostly because of my brother
When I built him a new PC he got my 1070Ti and I bought 6700XT, now when 1070Ti almost died, he got mine card and I got XTX

[umbral heron]

It is

[magic minnow]

I’m planning on getting a 7900gre for my younger brother since I’m gonna hand him down my old rig

[umbral heron]

But am happy it doesn't whine anymore

[unkempt lake]

My last 3 gpus were
Gtx 980
rtx 2080
7900xtx

[steady sail]

the 8700 XT gonna be a somewhat good choise for me i guess

[magic minnow]

I’ve only had two 1080ti and 4090

[steady sail]

or maybe im gonna go for the 8800 xt

[unkempt lake]

Which that 980 i really regreted buying it was a bad financial decision and i couldn't use it for months after buying it because of uh.... family issues lets call it that

[umbral heron]

We ball

[unkempt lake]

Ayyy you finally got around to it

[deft raptor]

Ah, I remembe now, I went from geforce 760 -> 5700xt -> 7900 gre

[umbral heron]

I'm surprised it went that low
But it doesn't whine anymore, so that was worth it

[deft raptor]

That's some deep undervoltage

[steady sail]

im pretty much on default settings

[umbral heron]

Ah shite, crashed on -118
It's stable on -115, did benchmarks and played a week like that without no issues

[steady sail]

never understood OC so im just gonna stay away from it

[umbral heron]

Undervolting, so it can clock higher

I should do the same with CPU

[steady sail]

yeah its chinese for me soo NO

[umbral heron]

Chinese CPU?

[steady sail]

no OC/ Undervolting

[frozen ingot]

bro got the peoples power processor

[unkempt lake]

At least just run amd's auto undervolt

[umbral heron]

our cores

[unkempt lake]

Not as good of a result but

Better than nothing

[steady sail]

uhm im gonna use it on stock

[reef patrol]

Every time you power it on it goes XIEXIE

[umbral heron]

Enable PBO in BIOS and that's it
Unlike overclocking, undervolting won't damage your components until you go really low
Otherwise it'll just crash, but PBO limits are nowhere near crash-prone, even on shittiest of silicons

[reef patrol]

PBO -30 and pray it is stable.

[ashen spindle]

Just keep it boring stock and it won’t crash and you won’t forget in 3 years why something is suddenly crashing

[unkempt lake]

I used the auto uv out of laziness before and for funsies, it literally just dropped my card by like 25mv which is basically nothing even the shittiest of cards can achieve that lol

[reef patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/gamer-keyboard-unlimited-power-star-wars-palpatine-gif-17278800

[ashen spindle]

If you got an idea sure it’s simple, if you don’t have a clue it’s not a big benefit anyway so keeping it stock just works

[umbral heron]

Slide the slider, play the game, if game works slide until you can't slide no more

[steady sail]

https://tenor.com/view/water-cooling-gif-24008042

[unkempt lake]

With gpus its literally the easiest

Not like ram where your windows may kill itself

[ashen spindle]

Well the thing is it could still cause crashes a year later and you forget you ever set an oc lol

[unkempt lake]

By that logic people shouldn't use XMP

[umbral heron]

If it'll hold 6000cl30 on 192G then I'll be very happy

[ashen spindle]

Somewhat, xmp is tested on the sticks and the board to work at least

But yes ideally we get to a point where jedec just is good enough and xmp etc. is gone

[unkempt lake]

"Tested on the board" qvl lists dont test for real stability

Its just does it boot yes no

[ashen spindle]

It’s better than random numbers on cpu/gpu

I do hope with lpcamm and such we just get only jedec in sticks and that works well enough

[umbral heron]

Oooo, I forgot
Wine finally gets Wayland driver
I don't have to play games with overlays on X11 anymore

https://tenor.com/view/chika-happy-spin-gif-14832460

[sudden imp]

https://tenor.com/view/echidna-echidna-spinning-gif-18561044

[umbral heron]

Finally finished and into release

Because some people can't like normal human beings just use dinput8 to inject overlay into the game, no, it has to be a separate app, with transparency coded in MonoGame

I swear BlishHUD

[frozen ingot]

normal people don't know what any of those words mean

[quick kayak]

How long does a wooting refund take to go back into my card

[ocean jackal]

Do you know what socket the 9800x3d takes?

Like am4 or am5 socket

the cpu

[balmy vector]

Am5

[quick kayak]

can anyone recommend a good desk under $200

[mild dome]

https://tenor.com/view/pi-kea-futurama-ikea-swedish-crap-gif-21642479

But seriously I recommend having a gander at the used market, might find something nice

[quick kayak]

am feining for a nice standing desk

but cant find a good priced one

[magic minnow]

I think they’ll be pricey no matter what

[marsh pewter]

[halcyon moss]

its only 5 hours?

[fair gull]

i dont think its done

[reef patrol]

What on earth is a "balance"

[fair gull]

respread block groups across the array

[halcyon moss]

The primary purpose of the balance feature is to spread block groups across all devices so they match constraints defined by the respective profiles

[cursive summit]

https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/1h46uq3/i_made_a_website_with_a_friend_that_allows_you_to/

Unironically this is kinda cool

https://buildcores.com/

Has a lot of the common parts people would consider

[umbral heron]

Meh, doesn't have duct tape nor zip-ties

[cursive summit]

It's limited but kinda cool

4080S sure is.. gigantic

I compared a 7900GRE dual-cooler recently to my old blower style RX 5700

They were honestly.. very comparable in size which surprised me

I thought that all new cards were gigantic for the high end

Lol, speaking of, RX 480 and 4090

[magic minnow]

No drops for the 9800 so far tonight

[umbral heron]

[magic minnow]

How was that browser you posted earlier :o?

[steady sail]

[magic minnow]

This one

[umbral heron]

Not tried this yet, I'm a bit swamped at work today

[magic minnow]

Hopefully day goes by fast

[magic minnow]

Let’s hope it doesn’t get cancelled

[steady sail]

[cosmic thunder]

is 983d?

[magic minnow]

Yeh

[cosmic thunder]

[analog sinew]

where did you order

[magic minnow]

Amazon

[analog sinew]

oh ok

[magic minnow]

It seems to get restocked at around this time

Yesterday it happened as well

5 minutes before now

[analog sinew]

what did you pay?

[magic minnow]

Retail 😮

479 plus tax 518$

[balmy vector]

I will wait for another gen x3d but 9800x3d is an insane chip

[magic minnow]

We have lift off

[steady sail]

im just gonna wait till am6 the 58x3d gonna be alright

[balmy vector]

9800x3d runs so cool, and boost so high on those clock speeds

[magic minnow]

I was gonna wait for the next chips as well but :c I think it’s gonna be the same like previous gen

Just one 3D cache instead of 2

[balmy vector]

I’ll probably wait for 10800x3d if they make that

[analog sinew]

damn im jealous

[magic minnow]

I’m only upgrading cause the 7950x3d is trash now

Just playing

Making a rig for my little brother so gonna hand him down old stuff

[balmy vector]

dual ccds

You should boost it to 6ghz when you get it

[magic minnow]

If the rumors turn out to be fake though I just shot myself in the foot

For the 9950x3d

[balmy vector]

Regardless you have a good chip

[umbral heron]

Nah, looks like 128(96+32) cache

[magic minnow]

I’m just going off of this :c

Now I need to find cheap 2k gpu for little brother -3-

[magic minnow]

Ehhh I’m gonna cancel the 9800

[ashen spindle]

Keep it

At this rate you could just resell it if the 9950x3d does get announced as double vacache part

[magic minnow]

What if the 9950x3d is better though ;3; and I’m only going to be getting such small gains over my 79503d

[ashen spindle]

Every current leak points to it still being mixed ccds sadly

[gusty kiln]

@ashen spindle @fickle ore Pat is in the rear view mirror now

[ashen spindle]

Yeah I posted it before the plushies took over xD

[gusty kiln]

[cursive summit]

Haha that's great

I don't see what good he's done for the company, with him in the reins they really became worse

[gusty kiln]

They should appoint Lisa su

[ashen spindle]

Because these things take years and his first big chance he will be the node starting up next year

The fact pat is gone from the board and there is not a direct successor but interim ceos isn’t a good sign

[cursive summit]

Assign Jim Keller

[ashen spindle]

Pat has been there for like 4 years and 3 years at the absolute earliest is when you see actual changes in products that come from top down

[cursive summit]

Damn Pat has only been CEO since 2021?

I thought it was far longer than that

[gusty kiln]

He has his own company that he's growing atm

[cursive summit]

I've seen some interviews, I hope he succeeds

So from 2013 - 2019 Intel's CEO was this Krzanich dude, considering Intel's domination in early 2010s, I bet their stagnation is his undoing

[gusty kiln]

He was a typical bean counter

So yeah

[cursive summit]

I really want to know how Jensen seemingly managed to consolidate the company under himself

NV seems to be doing really well under Jensen at least

[devout raptor]

Why is my mic audio only coming from the right side?

[steady sail]

Why does ppl love hearing themselves from the mic

[wheat plume]

To test sound levels and shit like that

Make sure you aren't too loud or peaking the mic

[crimson wigeon]

Rather have a bit too loud than too quiet tbh, since even the 200% volume boost Discord offers might not be enough

[cursive summit]

Sad for optane

Royal Core was Jim Keller's project during his brief tenure in Intel huh? No wonder it got canned

Intel doesn't want a good product

[devout raptor]

thats not what im doing im just trying to get this to work at all

only the 2 channel audio works for some reason

when I put it to single channel no app is recognizing my mic

[rough osprey]

only heard of optane lol

[cursive summit]

I've prolly heard of most of them at some point except for Tofino

Idk what that is at all

Optane though was cool

[devout raptor]

🗿 well this was the fix all along

[devout raptor]

my hyperx mic does the job better than all this fuck this im returning it all

almost 300 euros down the drain

[steady sail]

[fickle ore]

Majority wanted him gone but I think thats a bad move honestly. Pat did the right thing & took the blame for it.

[fickle ore]

yeah seen, not sure what to think lol

majority is stupid

[ashen spindle]

yeah it sounds like a wallstreet decision or the board disagreed heavily with him

not a good plan imo

[fickle ore]

if the next one is bean counter I'm out

[fickle ore]

yeah shouldve sacked the board lol

[analog sinew]

this is a thing in business yknow. Fall guy CEOs. They come in, do unpopular things like this and leave, taking the blame

some of it might have been necessary some not

then the "good guy" ceo comes in, does stuff and the cycle repeats

[unkempt lake]

holy shit

Tak got a special tak role

insane

[sonic crater]

my keyboard wont work but its on can somone help

[reef patrol]

Did anyone say... fall guys?

[frigid hinge]

Ayo....

[ashen spindle]

yeah pretty much, earliest change you see in semi space from a new ceo is like 1-2 years for things like selling of someting, any design or practice changes not before 3 years for new products, so no current product had any input from pat when it was started

he mostly unfucked the foundry and now there is a foundation, if thats good or not we'll see wiht 18A next year but if pat was doing a good job it literalyl couldnt really show till next year

[unkempt lake]

I'm really curious about

The future of intel dgpus

Will we get anything after battlemage

[cursive summit]

Wait for.. Wednesday I think? For the Intel GPU event

[cursive summit]

Well yes they already announced Celestial and Druid

Will be actually get them? Eh... 50/50?

[unkempt lake]

But with how badly the company is doing I'm thinking they'll can them

Intel dgpus just... haven't been selling

[cursive summit]

But is it actually doing that badly to axe a major investment

They already invested prolly tens of billions

[unkempt lake]

And the driver reputation is still haunting them

[analog sinew]

just axing stuffi snt going to open up new markets 🤷‍♂️

[cursive summit]

Intel has cancelled their dGPUs like multiple times now lol, come on, Larrabee

This time I think they'll stick until they can reasonably say "this isn't working"

[unkempt lake]

Now im curious

Would any of you actually buy an intel gpu

[cursive summit]

I prolly would if price is right

And AMD doesn't announce an insane banger of a generation yet again

[unkempt lake]

Their drivers have gotten better

For intel

To me that's the main thing

Drivers gotta be solid or i'm not interested

Amd managed to turn the ship around when it comes to that

[cursive summit]

The thing is, Intel's Alchemist cards were supposedly incredibly expensive

Not to mention they supposedly printed many of them, and didn't sell all that well

Battlemage needs to be insanely cost optimized to sell well and make profit

It'll be a tall order but.. AMD did it, with CPUs and GPUs

[normal lance]

Any idea which channel i can ask if there is import duty to be paid when delivered for a Wooting keyboard to the uk? Thanks

[cursive summit]

The channel is called email [e-mail]

[normal lance]

Ok thanks

[unkempt lake]

Normally its all included in the price

At checkout

Like import fees are included in shipping cost

[normal lance]

I did contact social wooting.io but they have a 2 week delay to replying.

Thanks Dashi.

[cursive summit]

2 WEEK?

Not 2 DAY?

[normal lance]

1-2 weeks they advised in the email to resolve

[cursive summit]

https://videocardz.com/newz/seasonic-lists-unannounced-amd-radeon-rx-8800-xt-as-220w-graphics-card

220W is kinda nuts for 7900XT performance

[normal lance]

Asking here as its quite a long time to wait, thanks for your help though

[cursive summit]

As Dashi said the storefront should have calculated taxes on checkout

[unkempt lake]

That's pretty standard for wooting

[cursive summit]

That was the standard during 60HE apocalypse

Have things not improved?

[unkempt lake]

not as far as i'm aware

[normal lance]

That was the message reply I just got anyway

[cursive summit]

This is one of those moments where you want an AI chatbot to filter out the fluff inquiries from actual support ones

[fickle ore]

totally depends on the next CEO whether he is bean counter probably will ax gpus kek

[cursive summit]

I think the foundries is going to the woman CEO who's a businesswoman by trade, the actual meaningful one to a guy who has some engineering experience

So... I am hopeful

But, obviously, interim appointments

Though I'd be amazed if they poach some incredible CEO like Lisa Su lol

[fickle ore]

They should look if Zuck or LeatherJacketguy has siblings

[fickle ore]

Jensen plz ;D

[fickle ore]

tbh the more meaningful atm is the foundry lol

or idk

cpu business dont seem to be as good as gpu

[halcyon moss]

I saw an Intel a770 for 470 in a pawn shop today

[cursive summit]

That's nuts, that's worth maybe half that

[real comet]

My keyboard doesn’t write its connected but doesn’t do anything

[cursive summit]

Don't spam in multiple channels

[rough osprey]

sry

[cursive summit]

Holy shit Toasty's alt confirmed

[ashen spindle]

you shouldnt just eat up reddit posts that have no clue what they talk about lol

[unkempt lake]

Woah

Reddit? A bad source of information????

i'm shocked

[ashen spindle]

the actual meaningful one to a guy who has some engineering experience
hates on finance background and then the guy hes talking about is literally the current chief finance officer

[cursive summit]

I hated finance background?

If I read correctly, Mrs. Holthaus is management by trade and is going to lead the Foundries, while Zinsner has semiconductor engineer experience and leads the products division, so the Intel we all know

That's all I fucking said, how did you extrapolate any of that from what I said

[cursive summit]

Also how is Reddit involved in this, this is from Intel's own report?

[ashen spindle]

zinsner joined intel like 6? months after pat as finance guy

[cursive summit]

"Zinsner has more than 25 years of financial and operational experience in semiconductors, manufacturing and the technology industry. "
"Holthaus is a proven general manager and leader who began her career with Intel nearly three decades ago. "
https://www.intc.com/news-events/press-releases/detail/1719/intel-announces-retirement-of-ceo-pat-gelsinger

That's literally all I said

[ashen spindle]

zinsner started out in a bank and worked all the time as finance guy

where as michelle even was manager in product groups at intel before

[wheat plume]

I love removing orphans

[oblique solstice]

any1 here that plays warzone that can help a bro out

or that is very tech-savy and knows a lot bout software and hardware

[cursive summit]

https://tenor.com/view/palla-deserto-desert-hot-gif-6014273

[cursive summit]

With "operational experience in semiconductors, manufacturing and the technology" I assumed he has actually engineered something

Looking him up in depth seems he actually has no technical knowledge

[fickle ore]

capitalism fucks even CEOs nowadays lmao

[gusty kiln]

CEOs are just a tool to make short term gains for share holder.

CEO go in, make cuts, share price go up 1Q, ruin company, golden parachutes, next.

[fickle ore]

Yeah sure, but even then the post covid boom increased the benchmark (i.e sp500 dominated by mag7) to compare against so the board / high % shareholders put pressure on CEO's of non-mag7 to make more money, make stock go higher

Most fail to do that

Multiple years of higher than average returns means bad time for CEO's too 😄

[analog sinew]

how is getting more golden parachutes an issue for them

[forest panther]

Tak talking about the economic state of the world

i’ve seen it all

[ashen spindle]

theres also a chance pat was forced to leave in a sense because he didnt agree with the trump administration and didnt want to bootlick them

[fickle ore]

Its not but CEO's are covered money wise so they care more about work than your average folk. Also increased pressure/stress from BoD over the years fks them up even when they genuinely care

[analog sinew]

huh?

i talk about the World from time to time but rarely good so i avoid it

[fickle ore]

whats rarely good

[magic minnow]

Yeah I canceled the 98x3D just gonna wait it out and see how the 9950x3D does

[unkempt lake]

What do you have right now again?

[magic minnow]

7950x3D but I wanna hand it down to my little brother

[unkempt lake]

Also i'd say realistically

You didn't need a 7950x3d

Coulda just used a 7800x3d back then

So just get a 9800x3d now

You just game as far as i know

And even then the 9800x3d is still good for productivity

[magic minnow]

Yeah just game and have have multiple tabs open that’s about it

[unkempt lake]

Then buy the 9800x3d

And don't waste your money on anything else

Keep it in your pocket will be more useful that way

:)

[fair gull]

but the 1 extra frame of the 9950x3d (if any)

[open ruin]

Time to have wooting on the stock exchange

[magic minnow]

ok ok thank you, ill wait after the new cpus get announce to order it, gotta buy Christmas presents

[unkempt lake]

I have a 7800x3d and even with background tasks it's plenty

:P

[open ruin]

Time to upgrade to 9800x3d

For the swag

[unkempt lake]

*if the game can even use this many cores which is rare

[magic minnow]

The second I canceled my 983D instantly sold

[unkempt lake]

You'll get another shot and they may even be cheaper by then

Or have a game bundle

:)

[magic minnow]

When I bought the 7950x3d it came with starfield

[plucky tapir]

My condolences

[latent mural]

Hey guys, for a budget of around ~$330 or less, do you think the Wooting 80HE+ gt-80 is the best board I can get? Mainly want to use it for office use/gaming. Gaming mainly, but something that looks great for the office is a +. Sorry in advance if this is not the correct channel to ask this btw.

[balmy vector]

When i bought my 7800x3d it came with space marine 2 and another game i forgot the name of

Also please no cross-channel posting, thank yous

[latent mural]

Apologize, meant to ask @fleet carbon first, but thought anybody else could share their thoughts afterwards.

I deleted the post from #💬│general !

Hopefully it will be so I can get it for my little brother

7800x3d is up on Amazon again

[devout raptor]

my laptop has been sitting in my school bag for 3 weeks and it doesnt turn on nor does it seem to charge

[wheat plume]

How long did you leave it plugged in for?

[devout raptor]

15 minutes

the led next to the charging port isnt lighting up

the power button is blinking when i press it

[wheat plume]

Oh ...
Hmm

Keep it charging much longer and then try again

[devout raptor]

hmm

my laptop charger works on my phone

cool to know

[wheat plume]

Both USB C?

[devout raptor]

yeah

fuck me if the port on my laptop is broken

[wheat plume]

Ah
I have one charger that can charge 3 devices
So I use that for my phone and laptop

The charger that came with my laptop was too bulky
Had a massive power brick halfway along the cable

[empty wren]

You got another c port on it?

Or a barrel one

[devout raptor]

there are 2 but afaik the other one doesnt work for charging

[empty wren]

So both are not thunderbolt

[devout raptor]

its a lenovo yoga c740

[wheat plume]

Charging doesn't indicate thunderbolt though right?

[empty wren]

Looks like they are 3.1ones

[devout raptor]

yes this

the other one doesnt work for charging

the led should light up when charging but its not

i dont get what 3 weeks in the bag did to ih

[empty wren]

Well it could drain the battery far below usable but that depends where it was to begin with

[wheat plume]

Have you tried holding down the power button for 30 seconds? While unplugged

[devout raptor]

yeah

[wheat plume]

This support thread ends with them buying a new charger for the laptop

Have you tried a different charger on it yet?

[devout raptor]

i tried my phone charger

the issue isnt probably the charger

[devout raptor]

i did this and plugged it in, now the power button is blinking

nothing shows up on the display when I press it and the keyboard doesnt do anything eihher

a battery icon should appear on the screen but nothing happens

[wheat plume]

Idk ;_;
Get on to Lenovo support in that case

[dapper bay]

If I take my wooting to a computer shop could they repair the usb c on it it’s broken? a little chunk of it is broken off

[devout raptor]

Ill try that

[wheat plume]

Most likely yeah
Unless the PCB itself suffered damage too

[dapper bay]

Ty

[wheat plume]

^ yeh do that

[magic minnow]

Don’t use the warranty then the multi million dollar company is gonna lose money

can i have help it wont let me extend my c drive

[digital cliff]

that's a d drive

[unkempt lake]

after seeing all of this other dude's... requests for help im not even gonna bother

it's just stupid question after stupid question

ugh

[marsh pewter]

hey give him a break

not everyone knows how to use google

[unkempt lake]

i really dont mind helping people

its just... this is basic shit

it makes my brain hurt

[digital cliff]

be nice

[marsh pewter]

my new years resolution is to be a better person tho

therefore if I become the worst possible person before then, Ill be a better person comparatively if I go back to normal

im on my evil arc

[unkempt lake]

I'm nice 99.9% of the time

[magic minnow]

I know I just got the iPhone 16PM but I want that one plus 13 ;3;

[keen kettle]

Anyone know a Website where you can buy a carbon fiber case for the 60%?

Only one I found is from etsy which I don’t trust tbh

[reef patrol]

You can't extend the system drive, while your operating system is running off of it.

Gotta get a tool and make a bootable USB, so it can do it outside of Windows.

[umbral heron]

Looks like he got C drive on the other 240G drive anyway

[umbral heron]

You slap this-a-thingy https://gparted.org/liveusb.php with that-a-thingy https://rufus.ie/ onto an USB stick, boot from it, select disk, move the arrow, confirm and wait - it will take a long time, because NTFS doesn't really like being resized

[reef patrol]

What? NTFS resizes just fine. Doesn't take but a minute.

[analog sinew]

but the screenshot is the d drive

[reef patrol]

shrug

[umbral heron]

Iunno, for me resizing was always a miserable experience
But I haven't used Windows in ages now, so...

[analog sinew]

or ig they want to extend c onto the portion of d?

[umbral heron]

They'd have to combine both disks into a volume then beforehand

[analog sinew]

cals out here reminiscing about windows xp

[umbral heron]

Oi, I used Windows 10, I'm up to date

[reef patrol]

Back in my day windows had versions right there in the name.

Threedotoneone

[umbral heron]

Yeah, Windows 10.0.19045 or 10.0.22631 doesn't really have the same ring to it
Also Windows 11 would be Windows 10.x and... we can't have that...

[analog sinew]

well 24H2 n shit gets used

[umbral heron]

If Windows 11 is supposedly the last version, why won't we call it just Windows and with version just 24.2?

[marsh pewter]

well thats because they lied

we're probably gonna get win12 at some point

[reef patrol]

Well... we somehow still receive updates and it's still 24H2 😄

[analog sinew]

wouldnt be microsoft without it

[charred nexus]

cuz microsoft and its bullshit naming

if they are logical, just called it "Windows" and the version would be 24H2

[reef patrol]

Apple tried that and failed.

Lion, Leopard, Lynx, Elephant, Mongoose, Anteater, Unicorn, Leopard, Rhino.

[charred nexus]

apple tried to keep their OSX thing

they are doing their macOS 11, 12 13 now which is pretty logical to me at least

lets say if they do Windows 1 (major redesign/upgrade) 24H2 (minor upgrade) it would be way better

but they already fuck up their naming so it dont matter anymore

[digital cliff]

yeah Windows 10 11 12 is the last version!

[wheat plume]

Xd

[umbral heron]

So... they decided to abandon Arc... for this? https://www.theverge.com/2024/12/2/24310944/dia-ai-browser-video-arc-the-browser-company

[wheat plume]

Ofc they did
It's AI powered!!
They got to keep their investors happy by following the latest trend for the most profit!!

[digital cliff]

don't really care since they won't support linux either way

[umbral heron]

There's Zen for Linux, basically looks the same as Arc and it's based on Firefox

[wheat plume]

True .-.

[wheat plume]

Oo???

[final flame]

https://zen-browser.app/

zen is interesting, but I really hate that vertical tab style
not sure whether you're able to change that

[wheat plume]

Ooooo

[wheat plume]

Oh.... Same here :/

[umbral heron]

I like it, but there's um... a small problem when I use it on my work laptop
For some reason bar is transparent .-.

[final flame]

this would be cool if it supports fullcreen video within the confines of the dividers

[wheat plume]

Oo yeah

[final flame]

the thing with firefox based browsers, is since the entire firefox ui is based on html and css
you could do basically anything with it

[wheat plume]

Yeah
I use the Firefox Gnome theme and it's fantastic 😍

You also have the option to hide the tab bar if only one tab is open with it

https://github.com/rafaelmardojai/firefox-gnome-theme

[sudden imp]

It’s over guys, time go home…

[halcyon moss]

booring, i use the built in purple/pink one

[magic minnow]

I wanna try this one out

"We're crushing AMD"

[gusty kiln]

Lmao B580 still loses to the 4060 in forza motorsport on high, it's only when you exceed the 8gb vram is when they beat it

[cursive summit]

Umm.. we'll see lol

[gusty kiln]

Simply because that have 12gb vram. That means the 6700xt would still crush it

[cursive summit]

Pricing is solid, I haven't seen the perf numbers yet

They should really make a 16GB model, 12GB is acceptable for Nvidia standards, not AMD ones

[gusty kiln]

I'm waiting to see the lowest sku, for the efficient encoder card

[halcyon moss]

250 usd 😮

[ashen spindle]

Yeah it’s a decent deal for about 1 month because rdna4 is coming first January week

[umbral heron]

bUt NO DLsS aNd weAK RAyTracING

[cursive summit]

Unless RDNA4 sucks lol

I doubt it will, RDNA1 was pog, but we'll see

[ashen spindle]

RT is quite decent on Intel because raster is so far behind lol

[cursive summit]

Heh, 4060 is their perf target?

[gusty kiln]

They only beat the 4060 in RT because the 4060 ran out of vram

[cursive summit]

I thought it was 4070S

That's very disappointing

[ashen spindle]

But good news, the die is still fucking massive so it’s one of the cheapest ways to get tsmc silicon in terms of $/area

[cursive summit]

Wait but wasn't the A580 their mid-end card?

[gusty kiln]

The B7__ cards are going to be the high end

[cursive summit]

So, where's B770

[ashen spindle]

Later

[lone plank]

Wait for 5000s series supposed to be released in January so 4000s series gpu will drop

[cursive summit]

Huh, crisis averted then

[cursive summit]

You must be new here

[gusty kiln]

B380 is going to be spicy

[lone plank]

Ye I am

[cursive summit]

Good, cause thinking RTX4000 will price drop cause of 5000 is wishful thinking lol

[lone plank]

It is not

It is standard business practice

[keen kettle]

Anyone know a trusted website where u can buy carbon fibre case for the 60%?

[gusty kiln]

Only amd cards drop in price nowadays

[lone plank]

People will sell their 4000s for upgrade 5000

[ashen spindle]

4000 Series already stopped production it’s not getting cheaper it will just be out of stock

[lone plank]

Don’t need brand new one

[cursive summit]

That happens exclusively for one night during Nvidia's announcement

[umbral heron]

It is
AMD 5xxx and 7xxx x3d CPUs are still going up in price despite 9xxx being available

[cursive summit]

Look at market analysis and you'll notice that prices don't drop

[gusty kiln]

Lmao we are not in the economy where people are upgrading gen on gen

There will be a few bit not alot

[ashen spindle]

Yeah and then people realize 50 series is sold out too for weeks and 40 series is up in price even used again

[gusty kiln]

Good luck snagging them up

[lone plank]

Am not worried

[umbral heron]

I like my CPU is whole 150€ more expensive than when I bought it few months ago

[halcyon moss]

meh, i thought it was benchmarks, but its just marketing material

[gusty kiln]

My 5800x3d are listed at 360 on ebay, wtf

[ashen spindle]

Yeah it’s reveal not buy in store today

[gusty kiln]

Are people really buying at that price?

I guess it is the fastest on am4 and no more new stock

[cursive summit]

Probably not

5800x3d is just sold out, low stock

5700X3D is plenty available though, decent prices

[ashen spindle]

X3d is like the NVIDIA cult almost for CPU’s lol

[gusty kiln]

Kek

[ashen spindle]

People don’t brain much

[gusty kiln]

Is it up to 10% slower sometimes

To the 5800x3d

[cursive summit]

It's considerably slower, but also affordable

[gusty kiln]

Shame they clocked it so low

[cursive summit]

I think if you OC it you could prolly make up the difference? Dunno, talking out of my ass on that one

[gusty kiln]

But gotta market segmentation

[wheat plume]

Ah, Red Magic.. you lost my interest

[analog sinew]

[analog sinew]

why?

[cursive summit]

Shite company

I am a Sony stan

[gusty kiln]

Think the new s25 ultra will look like that but with the punch hole camera

[wheat plume]

I want no punchhole

uninterrupted display + even bezels

[wheat plume]

the bezels can be less thin than this to save cost but I want them all the same width

[gusty kiln]

I barely notice it on my s24u

[wheat plume]

usually the bottom bezel is always thicker than the other 3 and it bothers me so so much

[cursive summit]

Considering the punchhole is literally where the top bar is, you literally cannot see it

[gusty kiln]

Bezels are even on my phone

[magic minnow]

They only get 3 years of update support in total

[cursive summit]

Punchhole complaints are invalid by default

[cursive summit]

Now you have my interest back

Nah not really, but the less the better

[wheat plume]

I know
But it blocks off content in videos and games

And photos in full screen

[analog sinew]

i dont need a front camera anyway

[magic minnow]

I was interested in the One Plus 13 but they got rid of their best color and kept the stupid curved screen

[analog sinew]

just get riiid

[cursive summit]

That seems like a mild to no inconvenience

[cursive summit]

Unironically, this. Who tf needs a selfie camera

[analog sinew]

curved screen is ass

[wheat plume]

Curved screen in 2024???? Ew why

That phase should be long gone

Yeah those are pretty even

[wheat plume]

Drumless???
What people got against drums???

[gusty kiln]

I think i may have the drumless version too

[cursive summit]

Google only has software, like the camera app and clean android

Hardware wise, especially the processor, Google's very mid

[wheat plume]

I find it interesting how Samsung went for square corners while every other flagship makes super round ones

[gusty kiln]

I really like how the square corner look

[analog sinew]

yeah

[gusty kiln]

But it's a little bit of a pain to use

[wheat plume]

Same

[empty wren]

Their security chip is not mid

[wheat plume]

^

That's why GrapheneOS uses Pixel phones

[empty wren]

Not necessarily

It was available even before it

[wheat plume]

Yeah
But it makes it more secure now

[gusty kiln]

I'm going to be self hosting all my music soon. Are you using qobuz?

[final flame]

not currently no

[gusty kiln]

I liked it but it randomly removes music

[final flame]

qobuz is nice to purchase from

[empty wren]

Also more functional if Google did not cripple notification icons length

[gusty kiln]

Time for plexamp on the go

Gotta figure out how to stream plex bitperfect to my dac

[wheat plume]

FFS

Google only give the screen size in mm

[analog sinew]

yes?

based

[magic minnow]

Why the 15pm

2.25 rattails

170 cockroach turds

27 almonds

[wheat plume]

iPhones are super wide

[final flame]

that's a lot of almonds

[empty wren]

That would be sony

[gusty kiln]

Sony are super tall

[empty wren]

The aspect ratio is super wide

[cursive summit]

Sonies are also incredible

[gusty kiln]

Iphone are still close to 16:9

[cursive summit]

Sony only lacks a removable battery for me, otherwise they are just perfect

[wheat plume]

I'm shocked Google put ltpo on the Pro
And didn't limit it to the Pro XL

[cursive summit]

But they are double IP certified so.. I imagine making the batteries removable manually prolly would void most of IP68 from Sonies

[umbral heron]

For now
2027 is coming

[cursive summit]

Isn't that EU battery law not for making batteries manually removable, but easily removable (not glued)?

[wheat plume]

But they are super fucking expensive ;_;

[cursive summit]

Define expensive, Xperia 1 VI is below 1000$ rn

Less that Pixels I bet, and far better

[wheat plume]

Their cheapest phone is like 600

[final flame]

https://www.linsoul.com/products/7hz-timeless-ii

[cursive summit]

Whose? Sony's?

[empty wren]

They are niche almost nobody buys one and they have far reaching camera capabilities

Only other bad part vex is they do not push 3 years of updates for the OS

[cursive summit]

Sony is a bit more popular than you imagine, I think

[cursive summit]

That's a good thing, you know

[wheat plume]

yeah

[empty wren]

Well good to know they can stay in phone business

[cursive summit]

Lana, cheapest Sony is 300$

[wheat plume]

afaik the 600 euro one only gets one upgrade

in what part of the world is a Sony phonr 300??

[cursive summit]

There is no 600 euro Sony what the fuck are you talking about

10 VI is 300

[wheat plume]

wat

[empty wren]

Three should be tried to meet at least, anything beyond that in my opinion would be a bad idea as it will slow the device down

[wheat plume]

How much should the 10 VI be?

[wheat plume]

oh yuck...uneven bezels, the top and bottom ones are thicker

[cursive summit]

1 VI has been 999 for a while now

[wheat plume]

it 1400 here :/

[empty wren]

That used to be a place for speakers thank you very much

[cursive summit]

Couldn't care less tbf, I've stopped updating completely, it's just making the device useless

[wheat plume]

I cant even find their phones on the irish version of their site....

[cursive summit]

I think my Tab S8U is still prior to the AI update, thank god, that shit will prolly make it unbearably slow

[analog sinew]

phones should not have speakers anymore, the public cant be trusted with it

[empty wren]

At the very least we should get 5 years of security updates, what do you say to that.

[cursive summit]

I'm completely fine with security updates

I despise android updates, they bring nothing useful

[empty wren]

They can sometimes but Google is kinda going backwards now or breaking former functionality

[cursive summit]

Samsung in general is just atrocious, their updates constantly have terrible features nobody needs

Like Galaxy AI

[empty wren]

Bixby the second coming it sounds like

[gusty kiln]

Aren't they getting rid of bixby soon?

[cursive summit]

I am honestly scared for the day when I accidentally update my Tab S8U and it installs like 2 years worth of updates, completely borking the device

It's an 8GB model, it can barely run some apps already

[empty wren]

It will not happen accidentally if stay out of settings and the notification

Samsung does not want to partake in a a/b system

[cursive summit]

It did happen accidentally with my Poco X3 once lol

Device froze, had to manually shut it down, somehow that initiated update cycle

That phone unironically has been a lot less responsive since then

[empty wren]

On that topic I noticed every so often major update does worsen a device but the following one is prone to improving it

Could be in a number of different ways as you mention or battery or ect

[cursive summit]

I barely do anything more than youtube or reddit, I see no need for updates

They just make my device worse

[pale sigil]

It's been less responsive since updating?

[cursive summit]

As per usual

[pale sigil]

[analog sinew]

bixby lol

[cursive summit]

Oh, XeSS-FG and.. XeSS-antilag.. XeSS-LL?

[gusty kiln]

Playing catch up with all the features

Though xess is better than most fsr implementation atm

[cursive summit]

I hope CES brings AMD's neural network based FSR2

[ashen spindle]

not the generic one

the one only on intel with hardware for it does do better yes

[ashen spindle]

why are you just listing marketing buzzwords as if that would automatically be good

[cursive summit]

If it uses a neural network, it uses a neural network

FSR2 currently does not

[ashen spindle]

yeah and that doesnt make it inherently better or worse

[cursive summit]

If they can make a machine learning algorithm for fast and quality picture upscaling, FSR2 could become a lot nicer

Currently it really lacks in quality, picture quality is bleh

[ashen spindle]

if they can make the current one better it also becomes a lot nicer

neural net just means matrix multiplication

[gusty kiln]

[sudden imp]

Apparently Intel is really popular in Taiwan

[cursive summit]

They were until they lost TSMC discounts from Gelsinger's dumb comments apparently

[ashen spindle]

yeah that whole story doesnt have a solid source

[cursive summit]

Well, the source was Reuters which is a pretty notable publication

[wheat plume]

now, if I wanna listen to radio or play games..I have enough balls for the job

[fickle ore]

Interestingly, they're considering Lip Bu Tan

[wheat plume]

Is there a way to make it so sites cant access your clipboard on Firefox?

this is all I see :/

this may do it....

[gusty kiln]

Who dat

[fickle ore]

Pat quarreled with him earlier this year and he quit

[ashen spindle]

ceo of cadence

[fickle ore]

He was Intel BoD

[ashen spindle]

or former cadence CEO

[gusty kiln]

[sudden imp]

Have they announced why Mr INTEL CEO “resigned”

[umbral heron]

Because bean counters had too little beans to count

[ashen spindle]

we dont know and well never know

[gusty kiln]

Some weird shit going on in south Korea

[umbral heron]

I mean
Pat wanted to put everything on 18A
And bean counters already saw drop of share price for a long time
Also kinda don't like the fact that Intel slept on AI hype
Thing is it's not Pat's fault that Intel is lagging behind, but decisions made 10 years prior

[ashen spindle]

it could also be because pat didnt want to play bootlicker to trump

[final flame]

was a close call

Kek dude got DENIED

[analog sinew]

lol

what a clown

[gusty kiln]

Inb4 trumps does the same

2028 let's gooooo

[analog sinew]

does he even have to

[gusty kiln]

Depends on how much shit they changed

[umbral heron]

Michael, you can't just yell that you're declaring bankruptcy martial law

[ashen spindle]

it was likely that they waited for the chips act to be fully certified and then pat left, if it was beacuse the board kicked him or he wanted to leave or a mix we dont know

[alpine patio]

[gusty kiln]

Us government might have cut the grant even further if pat left before that deal was done

[ashen spindle]

yeah

[gusty kiln]

They only took 600 mil off

Imagine getting cut in half
