7 days until gaming evolves
Do you mean there is lube in the switches?
breaking news wooting switches are lubed
no i was cleaning my keycaps adn then i put my fn key in and there was water dripping down
i took it out imminently
How did it get there?
i was cleaning
the keycaps
and there was a little drop of water in the key caps and it got in the rpings
spring, so i took it out and left it out drying
I left it out drying for 2 hours
Hey monkeys I wanted to ask is it normal for gpu utilization to fluctuate a lot
Like 80-90s then random dips to 50
sure? without knowing anything else can't really say
why are you looking at gpu utilization
Some stuttering in the game
more likely is that you don't really have an issue at all, it's just how the game runs, but if you want to go on a goose chase I'd start with memory and cpu
Linux rats where you at https://www.phoronix.com/news/AMD-AMDGPU-Composition-Stack
This one is so funny though https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/s/FWoal3UJgV
AMD already is doing advertising "buy now" campaigns for RX 9000 series.. completely forgetting they delayed the launch to March
this gpu launch is turning into a circus :D
5090 focuses more on DLSS, 5070 touted as 4090, and AMD making retailers mad by delaying the 9070 series by 2 months
Nvidia: relies on AI
AMD: enjoys pissing off retailers cuz they feelin' cute <3
the retailers do want dat 9800x3d tho
tbh, they should learn that delaying is most likely for a good reason
who knows, maybe something happened on a batch or so
Whaddya mean? Stores HAVE the cards.
I lowkey regret not waiting on the 9950x3d 
I should’ve gotten a 9800x3d for even more Minecraft fps 
I need more fps on bedrock 🗣️ 🗣️
more minecraft fps always good
32 chunk is unplayable, I need 64 chunk without dat LOD bs /j
if you can see farther.. it really changes the way you look at minecraft
its so much bigger
Just get that nVidia mod that shows you near infinite horizon.
i assume they booked the marketing stuff ages ago and couldnt delay it last minute
AMD says you can ‘play now’ with Radeon RX 9070 series So RDNA4 was supposed today after all? RX 9070 XT ad (translated), Source: AMD/Reddit If we needed any proof that the Radeon RX 9070 series was supposed to be announced today, this is probably our best leak yet. An advertisement on Reddit has once […]
INFINITE CHUNK DISTANCE!
Literally got posted like 10 messages ago but ok, repost 
Yeah but it was you
Damn we get news articles now that some small country ad campaign didn’t get the memo about a delay?
Guys I got some new server hehe
i got it from those capsule toy machines
Poland
Small country
Embracing your inner german huh 
And yeah it's multiple countries within EU, AMD Europe just seemingly did not get notified not to launch ad campaigns
What the
I need that why is it some rng shit 😭
Are you guys ready for 100 5090 review videos when embargo ends in 1h?
Im so ready to watch one and see it’s a 25% uplift at 15% more power 
You mean multiple times the performance thanks to DLSS4
16 times the details
it just works
16 times the AI
In classic rasterization, the RTX 5090 is, on average, 28% faster than the RTX 4090 and 72% faster than the RTX 4080 SUPER.
I am personally not impressed. AI has become far too much of a crutch.
i am way way more interested in 5070(ti) than the 5090 tbh
like, nobody i know will buy the 5090
you say while talking with people who will buy it
correction: nobody i know irl will buy the 5090
Indeed. Some people just work more and have more money to spend - and don't mind spending it on their one hobby they can set aside a bit of time for.
actually no
standard is 40-50%, 30 to 40 was even bigger
😭
tbf the jump in 30 to 40 is prob due to the massive schrinkage in the fabrication size
For the dutch people: https://tweakers.net/geek/231116/we-checkten-een-scoop-over-de-nintendo-switch-2-prijs-kapot.html
Nice case of how placeholder prices are just that. In this case the € 499,- was a guess, as their CMS required a price to be set.
And they want the page up already for SEO purposes.
i mean it would be 100bucks more
Switch was 349 wasn't it
seems to check out as a general guess

why
Møney is here, time to buye my PC 
could be but id guesstimate to the 400 as well
especially cause oled switch 1 is still 300-350
march is only 2 months away
$350 and their games are gonna be $100 🗣️
hopefully nintendo is cooking this time
heck yeah, gta 6 on switch, justifying other AAA game to be $100 as well
25% more perf for 25% more power for 25% price

Literally 4090 ti
damn am I good at predicting numbers or am I good
idk what rounding you use but no
march is a month and a few days away
i hope you dont also say 2026 is only a year away when its december 2025
uhh, I guess
you're bad at it
you forgot to turn on 4x frames
5090 will be good for ML though, will be worth the price increase for the vram alone.
After Zen5% I present to you, „rtx50 no wait it’s not even close to 50%“
wouldn't there be better alternatives for ML if you're already spending 2k on a gpu
If you don't mind used, 2 3090, or even 2 4090 if you can get them at $1k each
Professional cards, just worse price performance wise, or so I have heard, unless you go really big which a lot don't.
this is firmly prosumer space
youre quin
Man this is fucking sad lol
It won’t be good
The benchmark is quite bad for heavy load because you absolutely get cpu limited there
ill take any single digit fps improvement during hunting trains
Preset for "way too many fooking players and spells"? 😄
Literally a regression in xiv at lower resolution xD
Also trust me, you won’t see a single fps gain in hunt trains with a 5090 because my 9800x3d is still the bottleneck lol

i havent gotten a new cpu yet
also cant imagine why it would regress on lower resolutions
i might still get a 5090 just for the 2 slot cooler
you should just get it
are you sure you want this?
na imma wait
omg that's fucking awful
That's the FE 5090?
is that a single card or multiple though
When I switched game pad mode to Xbox then reconnected keyboard it just stopped working any idea how to fix?
What 2 TB SSD would you guys recommend for my build? I see people complain about 990 Pro
Restarted computer and I think it fixed it
5090 fe yes thats the only card that people tested so far
I figured out what the 32gb on 5090 is good for, to run local Video generation or Image diffusion model Flux on f16.
Flux is very good, but I haven't seen a good and popular anime tune on it, so it's still kinda useless to me.
roman put it the best way in his thumbnail xD
I hope the FE for the other models aren't that bad
That's just wrong though
It's a much bigger bump than 3090vsti
and its less than half of the uplift the 4090 brought
Should call it the 5030. Cause you pay 30% more for 30% more performance and it uses 30% more power.

omfg
obviously its not exactly a 4090ti but with how little gains there are for much more power its not too far off
hell fermi/thermi was a bigger uplift and that got people to make the bbq memes
They both look ass?
But yeah that hallucination with transformer model looks horrid lol, and that'll be a major part of DLSS4
DLSS4 I've already knew will be horrid from their very first benchmark
yeah I watched the one interview
That cyberpunk demo had hallucinations and shimmering beyond belief, how tf are you meant to play and not get an epileptic fit?
The transformer model is not gonna be more performant either
it has a higher cost
for what is seemingly worse
food is back on the menu boys, we're back in 2010
Just stop looking at those parts of the screen and look at some ads instead.
But yeah Nvidia 50 series is yet another disappointment
I don't own the rights to any of this, but it's a small clip and representative of Ad sales these days
I need more reviews on the transformer model
Except they made a worthy cooler lol
I gotta see it from someone who isn't a shill
The other parts in 50 stack will be like max 5% improvement upon last gen model which is fun
Nvidia is a cooler company, you've heard it here
a worthy cooler? @vagrant pagoda
Those 2 slot coolers are nutty
yeah but the 4090 was also a node jump wasnt it
a big one
well they could have made a node jump for this too if that was the limit
to 2nm?
What dose either have to do with the cooler?
Coils aren't in the cooler and neither is fan control
and we have things like zen2 and 3 being the same node and a massive uplift
a cooler without fans made for it isnt the full product?
The fan stop not working at times has nothing to do with the fans
That's all in the software
ok but it could also be that nvidia used the 4nm node quite well with 40 series and squeezed out all it has for now
well then they could have gone to 3
Or Blackwell was all for ai, and Nvidia is trying to squeeze gaming performance out of it by brute force
Damn I need to watch 30 minutes worth of benchmarks to get to the part I actually care about
I'm honestly more in the boat that that it's a 4090 ti and they're selling ai shit
I want to see how much TDP this shit sucks (from the socket)

Oh jeez. I remember when Microsoft and other companies would MAIL You betas with binder levels of paper manuals on top 😄
Let's start 2025 in the year 2005 with a retro PC build! 🖥️💙
After much dusting, cable-managing, and studying the ancient text of the world-wide-web, Blue lives once again! This build was a really fun challenge and hopefully will run strong for another 20 years!
Watch my Animal Crossing PC Build! https://youtu.be/iPXUoLXbIes
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬...
For those too lazy to click 😄
They just do it all digital now, but it's still a program
true but i also dont know why they stayed on 4nm
Been in it since xp
most likely reason: $$$ 5nm is cheaper
Hmm
so maybe in 2 or 3 years we see 3nm nvidia gpus 60series
and they gain another 50% or more over 50series
cheaper is especially true when it comes to very large dies.
Fans are only at 1600 RPM, surely you can run them at 2000 RPM right?
Who knows if 7 likes that or not
5090 otherwise seems actually pretty damn well designed for a 2 slot card
That's the default fan curve
Yes but I'd defo put that higher cause 90 on memory is a bit high
For what I'd look out for
Might be, might not be
70ish on die is pretty good though on load
@ashen spindle was there an answer to this?
havent gotten around to watch what other reviews said about it
I doubt anyone got more than one
How is the 5080 going to perform? It's literally half a 5090
Damn the anechoic chamber testing is also pretty good, why is the stock curve so low?
They could easily run the fans several hundred RPM more and manage thermals better
To keep noise down lol
How is that even a question fam
From what I'm hearing in the anechoic chamber testing, it doesn't even sound loud or bad
couldnt hear anything in GNs review about it
They can defo run faster fans
fan curve is down because why run louder if its fine?
90 memory does not sound fine to me for longevity
based on what
are you a material engineer or is this the lana case of 90 sounds close to 100 where water evaporates 
I have 10+ year old GPUs that think 90 on the memory is cool
They get 90+ on the entire backplate
tmw lead free solder only melts at like 200degrees
people are using profile inspector to enable the new transformer model in certain games
honestly after seeing video of it
it does seem better
by a decent amount
not hard to be better when frame gen is shit 
true
My old quadros and Tesla's will literally do 90+c for the entire PCB and backplate. They have done that for 15+ years
the clarity has improved by a lot
You have no idea where the probe is and what is a good reading
Less is good, but 90 might also not be bad
Nand flash runs fine at 90, could be the same
4 gb of vram in 2008 was also bleeding edge so it wasn't some legacy deal
also not all temperature sensors are equal at measuring hotspot temperatures, this is also part why you may see higher temperatures sometimes, especially compared to old hardware.
Memory generally runs fine at 105 tj
But nand does have some bad effects at those sorts of temps
90 is not something I'd be happy with
Yes it's 6X, and no I don't believe 7 is suddenly has 10 degrees higher tolerances
Still way too close for my comfort for card longevity
80 is max I'd run that card at
no you dont understand 95c means its made to run at 95c for the thousands of hours its rated for
Nah you wouldn't run the card because it's too expensive and are just looking for nitpicks to justify on more than price
So when someone going to do AI benchmarks for the 5090. Coz obviously that's the real improvements
Considering the years you'd have the product for, thousands of hours you can rack up within a year
90 something memory is high
its not though
vrm capacitors are rated for like 10-20 years at 85c which means continous 10 years of 85c at minimum
That's completely unrelated though
no its hardware thats in constant use and has high endurance
Memory is just an array of capacitors and transistors in a chip
why would a memory chip rated at 95c have more issues at 90c
6x on nvidia cards would reach 102Chttps://www.reddit.com/r/IndianGaming/comments/l78daa/gddr6x_temps_reaching_102_c_while_gaming_on_rtx/
and it was rated to 110c by nvidia
later revisions even seem to be rated for 120c
hot
also the 95C you have on the micron spreadsheet is NOT Tjunction that hwinfo would show you but its on top of the thing
so even the micron basic specsheet says 95C on the outside is fine so the other sensors at a hotspot being below that is even further away from the limit
So. The rest of the 5000 perf doesn't seem too promising now. It was already speculated to be meh before.
I swear next time I meet an AMD rep I will harass them until they forward the feedback of please just make high end cards lmao
Surely 5070 is better 
High end cards are coming back with UDNA though?
Inb4 barely matching 4070 super
I have quadroplex that have 20k hours on them
And they literally run 90c the entire pcb
Memory, vrm, everything
who says they wouldnt cancel that the same way they did for rdna4
Fair, they can
With how little Nvidia is doing though, UDNA can easily come on top in performance over 5090 though
The thermals would be quite nuts though
So keep saying they 90c is bad intermittently
So... Is PCIE 5.0 important for the card or is 4.0 basically the same?
5090 itself actually seems pretty sweet if you forget price and efficiency, but it seemingly going all out on performance is a real bad sign for the lower skus
PCIe was never important?
1% according to techpowerup
we dont even know rdna4 thermals so how would that mean anything for the gen after
You don't really get much benefit from PCIe upgrades, never did
5090 is still for entry ai 100%
Only reason it got a fat stack of vram
Same for it being 2 slot
I mean it's also better than dual 4090 would have been if sli still existed
People will line up to buy 4+ at a time for ai
I want to see how flow though dose with 2+ with no clearance
Can you link the test?
I bet it will do amazing
Moving the PCB away from the backplate should help a ton
Thanks
4x5090 on a bifurcation setup 
Could you imagine running 32 GPUs on eypc or rapids
on which page is it on tpu? im blind and cant find it
So when are the reviews for the cards that actually matter, 5070Ti and 5070?
February?
Separate article
how do i write ^ on the 60he?
ahh
Use your neruolink chip
so far my impressions of dlss transformer mode is that it's like dlss cnn quality is like dlss transformer performance
but better clarity for text as well
the transformer mode also uses a ton more vram it seems so get fucked on lower cards that dont have enough lol
yeah it from the words of a Nvidia engineer
Poor people problems
man and I was looking forward to get a 4k ultra wide when they come next ces
which isn't crazy but already seen a few people saying lower fps
now I cant even throw enough money at anyone to make it run well on that
dlss transformer ultra performance
fuck no I have working eyeballs still
Lol
I run 4k x 5 and just do 2x scaling lol
I'll end up getting surgery just to make sure I can still see and complain about frame gen 
Nvidia has taken your feedback and created an 8x frame generator, thanks Quin
As long as they add reprojection I'm down
Gimme all the artifacts as long as it's got 0 latency
Yeah the 5090 just looks like a 4090 Ti Ti
So. Who is getting a 5090?
It's faster than what I'd expect from a Ti, but it's kinda a double Ti
I'm considering it but I could instead get a new car lol
The biggest issue that's it's a linear increase from last gen
Kekek
But 2 grand used car is not that great
2 grand + what I get from selling my old car is pretty good tbh
Ah
Japanese kei-cars are like 5k brand new innit?
In Japan where they are subsidized
Shit boxes are the best
After imports and everything nah
You can get crappy kies for like 3-4
Only if you got the time and energy to fix em lol
The vision pro is looking more and more appealing as time goes on 😦
Can you screen share with non Maca yet?
What about samsung vr/ar
I got my replacement from xreal
Meh, idk whose clone I get just the general form factor
Which vr headset is the lightest atm
Idk parsec at least will work since it's web
Bsb but that doesn't have compute
If you want compute it's a quest
Hmmmm
I might try to grab a FE because I want to get rid of my 4090 aio xD
But not going for any more expensive aib model
But man I really hoped for more
Same
Is the quest 3 comfortable ?
Maybe it's disproportionately better in VR?
Comfort is personal and I don't own one, heard its quite gud
With a custom strap
Very much improved vs the 2
Custom strap still needed but imo the best setup you can get currently
I hope amd gets idle power under control, I want to try high end amd whenever cdna comes
Hmmmm
Seems that nvidia is abandoning that tho :/
Lol
On the 90 series yeah lol
But I imagine the 5070 to be great at idle
I get Norton 360 deluxe for 12 months for free if I buy a PC now
Eh, more than 4090 hurts
Not going in the correct direction
That’s a downside 
$50 value 
You’d have to pay me to consider anything but windows defender
@ashen spindle you getting a 5090 for them sweet fake artifact filled frames?
Sell it to some boomer
I'd feel bad
Sell it to a boomer you hate
@pale sigil
Idk if I will but that would be the reason, and sell the current gpu while it’s still sought after xD
Will the tiny PCIE 5.0/4.0 differences of the 5090 be smaller for the 5080?
Yeah
Alright, good
Okay I just boat my new PC
ikr
Would you be willing to give me a 50% off deal
Unfortunately that one does not swim :/
I own the train and am still pissed lianli never released the corners they teased
Surely someone could make those in this day and age given the existing dimensions of the straight pieces?
Hell. Could 3D print them and them have a company cast them for you?
😄
can someone explain me why the wootility app shows me 4.00 actuation fully pressed, when I have geon raw he switches with just 3,4mm ?
Anybody else hate the feeling they get after buying something expensive? I feel like I have done something irreversibly expensive and I get this awful anxious feeling in my guts
yesss
its the greed
🫂
its k
Here are the final specs btw:
Fractal Era 2
Asrock B650I
AMD 9800X3D
Arctic Liquid Freezer III 240
G.Skill Flare X5 6000 MT/s 32 GB CL30
WD Black SN850X 2 TB
Seasonic Focus SPX 750
sounds good
whaaa
what gpu will you get?
Idk
im 99% on 5080
ah sadge
I wanted 5070 Ti at first due to vram but when I found out it won't get an FE model I wanted something else
used 40 series?
It maps the 3.4 to its internal scale so you can use the full functionality
Which atm shows 4mm due to other switches not having full "official" support
(Even tho they work fine)
That is coming at a later date and you will be able to select what switch you have so it shows the correct mm
I ideally picked similar stuff, besides the motherboard, case and PSU
Hi, are all Wooting 60he+ equipped with ARM? Thank you !
and mine's 1569 euros, according to pc part picker list
Unless you find a really old one, preowned.
Yes.
I only use pcpartpicker for compatibility
The prices there are irrelevant as I do not buy from the stores it has listed
from 2022?
I buy from Proshop mostly
Ask for photos of the box. It'll say ARM if it's ARM.
Yeah, I wouldn't buy all the parts from the same store, as other stores may have it cheaper
from the original packaging?
Yah
here
It's a 60HE+
It's ARM.
ok thank you ! 😉 👍
No 
Was worth a try
I can give you 50% off on the old GPUs in my work/cad rig
It's got a pair of Vs lmao
I didn't buy them but they were like 3 grand new XD
Are they 4090s? 
Make sure to use 3 seperate cables for the aio, people say the lf3 pump is loud if left on default
the pump is quiet (even on 100% in my experience) but the lil fan in it can get annoying
Heard I can just unplug the fan
you can just not plug it in ye
Wdym by 3 separate cables?
You get the option of one cable or 3 separate
you can swap a cable in the pump with 1 cable for everything or pump / mini fan / aio fans
In the box?
Yeah
Oooh okay
all in the manual
I would go seperate just to be able to control everything
Yeah I'll do that
I finally have closed-back headpones but I don't want a noisy pc
I don't know wtf is going on at Microsoft these days, but I am genuinely tired of Defender having false positives and deleting massive downloads, instead of quarantining them.
microsoft is wyld
They couldnt even pay for a real cat smh
That's actually kinda funny
An ad that's self aware? I am impressed.
Less so about monitors notoriously using weird and obscure model subnames to make it super difficult to price check the fuckers.
To be fair wtf can the call them when there is 900 different 27 inch screens a year
welcome, you're a bit late
She's Canadian
I was busy this morning
What do you expect
Xd
Reeee
My main issue is that they change the modelnames based on region. Even when the only difference is a power cable.
And that makes price matching real difficult when there's a sale.
Why so similar at 1080p?
Maybe I should drop my idea of buying a 5080 then
You were gonna play at 1080p????
I play at 1600 x 1200 which is slightly fewer pixels total than 1920 x 1080
yeah at a res like that you are 100% cpu bound
please tell me you're running a maximum of 19 inches with this
Mm, good 2 know
It's around 20 inches viewable
Likely due to electrical regulations
ty
Finally got my new work laptop, I finally have dual channel memory 
Intel 165H, 32gb ram, rtx 1000 ada
so this generation is just lowkey trash (atleast on the 90 series)
Tmw my work won't upgrade me because of budget reasons smh
Still running an 11th gen on that

Hello guys need some help here we just received the keyboard but our entry key is "hard" and stay blocked 🚫 did anyone have faced this kind of situation?
Pull the keycap off.
Pull up on either stabilizer stem. Does the other one follow it up and down smoothly?
We tried with the other one it's working well only this one stay pressed 🥺 we tried also with 3 different caps
You didn't answer my question.
No keycap, pull on the stab stem.
Pull on one, does the other one follow it?
Could be a few things. I recommend making a thread over in #1019755933959733258 for more help.
Thank u I have made a post 🙌
Lil hand warmer
How good is the quality of you disable the compositing
That's the pcb under the memory
80+c all day and this is with more airflow than the quadroplex they came out of had
How that FE cooler handle heat is nice, the power draw though 😵💫
I was thinking AMD would REALLY benefit from GDDR7
Their cards love VRAM speeds, I think a lot more than Nvidia does
Has AMD released their new cards yet?
March
Oook

total opposite take xd
I prefer more.. consumerist takes, so someone like Dave2D
And they said that the phone is.. fine
Yeah... xd
kind of wish they didnt release new phones every year
But they nerfed the S-pen and it makes no sense why
Maybe to boost watch sales :/
miss the days where people actually took time to release products instead of putting out shit products every year and call it "new huge upgrade"
^
Also, Samsung only let you use these AI features in the S25 for a year
then they make you pay a monthy fee
Tbh phones are just stagnant because well
So this time next year, the AI shit will cost money each month
A french fry
Literally I coulda just swapped the battery in my iPhone X instead of upgrading to a 14 pro, I just wanted extra storage and a better camera so i can take more moumou pics
Everything else the old phone did fine
To sell ring
ring?
NVIDIA's Flagship "RTX Blackwell" Workstation GPU Surfaces Online; Featuring 96GB GDDR7 Memory With 512-Bit Interface https://search.app/FEdXic7rfJbFXe8U6
They make a smart ring
What now
Smart rings have been a thing for a bit now
That means my s24u will have slightly better resell value now
But yeah the ring can do almost all of the spen Bluetooth tricks
It's still hella dumb
I’m curious will the 5080 most likely have similar performance to the 4090 ?
seems like it, maybe lower
B-b-but they said the 5070 will be similar to the 4090!!
I'm guessing in-between 4080 and 4090
5080 is just so much cut down from a 5090
can't be late if I was never told to be anywhere
So at best it's going to be like 5-10% over the 4080s
4090 is 15% faster at 1080 and 35% at 4k vs 4080s. 4090 has 50% more cores
If by always you mean every 2 years then.. yeah
Given the 5090 has 25% more cores and is 25% faster at 4k
I doubt the 5080 with 30% less cores will be any faster
Android 16 is gonna add Predictive Back Gestures to 3 Button Navigation also
This is odd in terms of how you use it
How about they add something actually useful for once
My android 12 China phone has this lol
Huh?
Has what? Shows you what the back button will do before you do the full action?
Android wrappers can add whatever features they want
It does it for all 3 buttons
Can you show me
Sounds odd
How would it work for recents and home??? People know what that's gonna do at all times
It's not unpredictable like back can be at times
It makes the app like 60% of the screen size and shows home behind it for home
For recent it just shows the recents like normal
Hmmm
The back the only useful one
As it lets you know if the app will close or not
It does nothing if it won't close the app
I'm so glad I don't have to swipe the notification shade down anymore to end a screen recording
I used to have a special DND mode for screen recording that would hide all notifications in the shade
But now I don't need it
You can't just hold volume?
No
The screen recorder on Pixel and Pixel styled ROMs doesn't have any configuration other than choosing to record the whole screen or a particular app and to show touched or not and to record audio or not.....
Can't change resolution or frame rate or bitrate or anything
Pixel styled ROM
I don't own a Pixel
Too expensive
I have a Xiaomi phone with a custom ROM xd
I want a Pixel 9 😍
But it's almost €1000
GPU-Z won’t show hot spot temperature for RTX 50 series NVIDIA has decided to disable the sensor entirely. Performance aside, there are other interesting topics arising from today’s review coverage of RTX 5090 cards. NVIDIA has spoken a lot about its new dual-slot cooler design, which is intended to handle higher power requirements. However, the...

Lol are they that hot that they don't want negative publicity
Allegedly
My (soon) s25u costs way less
919
628 in nl
Yes. Way less for real. I paid about 700
Yes. Had to change provider for an extra 100 saved.
So strange...the 256GB model IS THE SAME PRICE AS THE 512GB model
Samsung always does that
Indeed
light blue
silver
black
grey
Good thing I don't look at the back to often
628 in nl btw
I might just gonna commit stupidity and get this for 640€
Asus Strix 3090
Im not an avid RT user so i dont care xd
I would try it out but i dont care much
Soo im gonna be happy on that card
Atleast game performance is gonna be better in 1440p
I mean either that or a 4070 super xd
Unboxing the Samsung Galaxy S25, with an early review of the camera tech, gaming performance, OneUI 7 features and other bits. That hardware is mostly unchanged vs the S24, but the Samsung Galaxy S25 does boast Snapdragon 8 Elite smarts. So those obligatory AI tools and games run with a stunning smoothness.
You can pre-order your Samsung S25 ri...
finally...a review of the NOT Ultra model
worse battery than s24?
Wait for S69 then upgrade 
Damn
No dimming at low light
Gonna see flicker on dark screen .-.
Maybe the Ultra has it? As an incentive for most people to upgrade
I'm glad that Google use the same CPU on each model
You can get the A model and have the same performance as the Pro model
Same with the s25 range right?
It's all the 8 elite
Sounds like you don't know
Hi, I'm here to steal all your cookies, also your cookies
Why is it that cheaper phones have more features now?
Charging brick
SD card slot
Sim card slot
Headphone jack
Because as a tradeoff they don't get stronger cases or glass - or water proofing.
Also...branding.
OnePlus 13 has ip68 and ip69 ratings
Custom ROMs ftw
Unlocking the bootloader on Xiaomi doesn't void your warranty
Like right now that seems like one of the better phones to get 1+13
cheaper phones
It is though 
It's €999
That's not cheaper
Also... I don't recall the OP13 having any of those ports?
Wait
€1049
I don’t think many phones do but it does have something superior
IR blaster 
So why respond in the first place, if the phone isn't relevant to the topic 😄
Talking about cheaper phones
Most Xiaomi gage IR blaster!
When that’s what OnePlus was here for 
1049 euro isn't cheaper
;_; ikr
OP? Cheap?
You're smoking something 😄
Honestly not buying a phone on launch nowadays hurts so much since you miss out on the savings
Nord 4 is €530

They stopped being cheap several mainline models ago.
Yeh but 2 Android upgrades only
3.5mm jack + 2TB MicroSD storage available
game is game for less than 300 euros
let's be real
True
Nothing phone 2a is pretty cheap
I’m waiting for the nothing 3 wanna see how their ai stuff turns out
I never be able to go back to android 
€380!
I like going back every once in a while
Nothing phone 2a is reasonable due to the OS
iPhone and Windows are similar to me
They piss me off with constant annoying shit to deal with
Android and Linux are similar and I love them both
I loved the Nokia Windows phones from like 2013
I mean the nothing 2a plus looks nice
Tiles was the best thing to have ever happened to windows
No
On phones it's amazing.
It was a pain in the ass to find stuff
I currently got the oneplus nord 4
Happy little guy on the top left
The only thing I would probably improve is the damn OS
Samsung 25 Edge the thin phone
Same
Windows Phone 8.1 was amazing 😍
Most consistent UI on a phone I've ever seen
And global dark theme...iOS and Android didn't have dark theme in every app back then
Someone put the windows ui on the s24 ultra
Looks really nice because of how squared off the s24u is
Isn't that just the launcher that copied 8.1 style?
Cause half these apps weren't on Windows Phone OS
More than half.... In their official form anyway
Microsoft trying to force all apps to follow the same UI theme was its downfall imo
Windows Phone in 2025 is unironically primed to make a successful comeback
All of the brand new Android phones are likely running Snapdragon 8 Elite if not Mediatek
Same exact chip as the ones Windows on Arm uses for laptops
It's never been a better time for Microsoft to return to Windows Phone OS
You can literally just run Windows on a phone now and it's.. not terrible
Not great but it's basically the first generation of this major push for WoA and it's commendable
Great battery life
Inb4 steamOS phone
No, thanks
I want Linux on a phone with good hardware
Cause the current phones you can get Linux on are all overpriced and very very underpowered
Yeh xd
I want the Minisforum V3 so badly 😍😍
Put Fedora on it though ..no Windows
Did Google ever make another pixel tablet?
Other than the one that can dock to a stand and act like a Google Nest ?
That's a pretty cool idea
Cause it comes with that dock
Yeah, that thing is now hella over priced for what it offers
hey guys any1 here an expert in pc building and parts?
You get a tablet and a Nest Hub on one device
Or wasn't that great if a deal when it first came out
ok so ive got a 4070 ti super end of last year as a gift and still rocking my i7-12700k from the old rig/gpu, i play 1080p mostly
i get around 200-220fps in rebirth island on cod, would a new cpu give me more frames? is my gpu now too strong for the cpu?
i did notice that the gpu never goes above 80% in 1080p but cpu is basically maxing
could it be possible that my cpu is bottlenecking my gpu now?
xmp is on, ram is good i think
its running on its listed transfer rate
so, lets say, if i get an i9 or ryzen 7/9 newer gen id get more frames on 1080p?
to notice an upgrade youll probably need an x3d from 7000 or 9000 but yea
well the gpu is not the culprit at my res id think, its more the cpu no?
its never at 99% and my monitor is 240hz
so ideally id like over 240fps in all cases
it depends on a bunch of stuff but generally correct
game, settings, ram, sync
unless you get to keep motherboard, skip intel, its pain rn
oh, were talking only CoD, lowest settings possible for max frames
i need a new mobo then for ryzen or intel regardless :/
and new ram too probably... ddr5 instead of 4
which is a pain
Nah atm warzone has issues with performance
Kinda yeah
I mean with an x3d cpu u would gain fps
https://youtu.be/VWSlOC_jiLQ?si=Nt3EsMa90KpP1js2
I'm just now getting time to watch this, my optimistic guess was between 25% on the low end, up to 40% performance increase, was I close or wrong?

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 GPUs launch next week, but reviews can go up today. This benchmark and review of the RTX 5090 Founders Edition video card evaluates the gaming performance vs. the RTX 4090, RX 7900 XTX, RTX 3090 Ti & 3090, RTX...
Is a bend like this ok
Intersting, yeah I just started watching so I'll have to see
Have to check out HUB too
I like the other Steve
absolutely
Ok thanks, theres no space to pull more of it back into the case so i had to leave it like that
ye it is
apparently steam users are suffering performance issues, i use steam, but i dont notice any issues
just lower fps than battlenet which is super weird lol, they say the steam overlay is killing fps somehow
i was thinking that too yeah
i mean dont get me wrong 200-220 fps is great but i can easily pull 300+ maybe with a better cpu
it does like dozens of steamapi calls each frame lmfao, absolutely stupid ways they made, like checking if your friendslist is online 500 times a second
thats fked...
Isnt it 30% on average tho or smthn like that
apparently turning off voice chat in game gives u 40 frames
and i tested it, it really does lmao
25% at 4k from HUBs average
but battlenet has no issues whatsover and people get more frames on battlenet client than steam... which is crazyy
much less at lower resolutions
Damn
Damn, makes sense though it's one of the very few games that integrate steam chat
40 frames in total or 40 extra?
extra 40fps when turning off voice chat
Wow
and another 30 or so when switching to battlenet
Hasnt that been a thing for years
i think it has but i didnt notice it on MW2 or MW3
I'll keep voice chat on thank you very much, half of the experience is hearing all the nonsense in proximity and last words.. even though here in Europe people rarely talk
And its on purpose right
no clue tbh but its a scummy move
I mean just disable steam ui and gain fps
Somewhere in settings i think
nah its just a skill issue they actually do a API call to your steam list if you are online and logged in every single frame
to updated your friendslist, which is fine like every minute or so
I turn off the steam overlay for every game.
ok ill give that a go
but if u go offline u cant play mp then right?
no clue should be fine to set steam offline?
dont have the game just saw the code where its called each frame lmfao
ill give it a go, im still doing testing with my rig and different tweaks to see how wz and rebirth would run, this is CoD only
thats why i asked in the 1st place originally, i saw a guy pulling 300fps on 1080p with the SAME rig as mine, but i only get 220
so i did some brainstorming, must be battlenet vs steam... cuz steam is horrendeous
most of the time steam is good enough
idk Im still watching, pausing and doing other stuff so taking my time lol
my guess before official benchmarks released was around 25-35%+
in terms of raw perf
not MFg n crap
Tbh i'd have bought it on battle.net if I had known this was an issue lol
Not like the game has family share anyways
I don't really play that much black ops 6 as of late tho
Does this affect the regulsr MP or just warxone?
Makes sense it's fine on game pass
Microsoft probably paid the devs to make it bad on steam so people play it on Xbox and game pass instead
This is the first black ops game under Microsoft right?
jesus christ you need to stop thinking in these conspiracy bs ways
I'm also not the only one who thinks Microsoft are trying to kill competitors
no but you are the only one who would even consider something as dumb as this being something done on purpose and not incompetence
Who knows
me
I thought they did something similar in the past with another game on steam that ran worse than on Xbox app
do you mean bo2 that could crash if you have between 60 and 100 friends online on steam?
I've had the opposite happen where forza ran better on steam than xbox app
Literally doesn't mean shit
Hmmm
hrmmm yes let’s completely ruin an entire platform’s support for a little bit of money from microsoft
makes so much sense
that’s something the devs would totally agree to doing
They made a vid on it: https://youtu.be/nTBRJH3L-_4

Why would the largest third party publish do a favor for the largest first party publisher to hurt the largest third party marketplace
Please

Do you use a ton of different motherboards or something?
you can enter it from the os via shutdown, you can mash just multiple keys etc.
Some motherboards also have two keys you can pick from
It just sucks when I'm working on someones laptop or computer and need to look up online what the bios key is
How many different BIOS keys are there?
I think I use F2 for my desktop and F12 for my laptop.
Are they not able to tell you?
F12 or del on Asus z690i
It could be any of the F row keys
Could be escape
Could be delete
imo most of the time its F2 and DEL
Can also hold the shift key in conjunction to a restart. Will allow you to boot into uefi from the troubleshooting screen.
why do you need to look it up, just mash all the keys or worst case reboot it
if its in the os just reboot into bios so no key needed
if its off just hit everything or wait for the screen that shows which key it is
So... DEL?
Why would you want to delete the bios
deleting the startup process
delete computer
no that was incompetence. otherwise its m$ trying to force people to the xbox app
my favorite part of that video is how some people are tricked into thinking its a real robot
they've been doing similar since bo3 at least lol
I mean why even play COD on PC, that's for console gamers
we dont do that over here
oh
Of course it's a mess, we dont buy their game, why would they optimize it for us
You did, but I mean the mass player base
Twice
You and everybody you know owning it still makes up 0.000001%
The point was most people who buy and own and play the game are console players
Hence why they have an optimized game and we do not
well you see its not even the fact that its pc optimizations that are lacking lol
but basic shit like steam api interactions
which is just the same as using a sony api but different naming
They just dont care, why would they, when millions of people are still going to play whatever CS game is out instead of the yearly rehashed COD game
I mean if you get a active playercount of half a million?
the pc version makes more money than other full pc only games
Doubt that
It makes more then CS go??
So steam numbers are kinda innacurate

I didnt say it made more than cs
Gambling go
but thats like saying unless you make more than jeff bezos you dont make much if you earn millions
That is beside the point, it still makes money, no need to move the goalpost
It just doesnt sell well, it has and always will be a console game, if you expect it to ever be optimized like it is on console, then buy it on console
like I dont think you understand how much top 10 playercount on steam is when its also on gamepass and battle net
half a million active players at once doesnt sell well???
thats more than a million people owning the game
Who said half a million on PC?
Where?
That is adding in mutiple COD titles tho you do realize that?
And a lot of people use gamepass
You are further proving my point
As of February 2024, Microsoft's Xbox Game Pass had 34 million paying subscribers, including those on PC
As of June 2024, the Xbox Series X and Series S have sold 28.3 million units
5.7 million on pc
At least
Is the gamepass userbase
So you are assuming that every Xbox Game Pass sub is a COD player
even more far fetched
I also assumed every single console player was using gamepass
Which they clearly don't all do
Good chunk of them, believe MS forces it on them if they want to play Online
You can buy gold without gamepass
so what, because they add multiple COD into one stats that changes how much money it makes on steam alone? the issues like calling steam api is the same code in all of them
Amazing, wonder when MS stops that and forces the gamepass combo sub
the newer ones are pure slop but I played bo1-bo3 for zombies
like a peak of 500k players easily means at that point 10+million people had the game
You are trying to make a point it sold well, if that is going back to 2019 COD when they first introduced Warzone, then thats terrible
Its currently 2025, that means they sold about 100K a year for every game
