Noise focus builds are popular and feasible these days

higher pwm freqency

#

tbh as a german, most of my friends actually use AMD tho

#

92% seems a bit high but the value proposition is just better ?

not really though this gen with higher powerdraw

Just got my Wooting 60he+ Question ?? I had to remove the usb c from the keyboard when i reconnected it my screen turned black for 1-2 sek ? ? Newer happened before ?
the cable is crossing my displayport cable maybe that's why ?

digital cliff
#

ok

rigid tinsel
#

i think most people dont really care about power draw but price to performance ratio

#

kinda indifferent to me what my PC is drawing

spiral island
#

Watts per frame is my new favorite metric for GPUs 🙂

rigid tinsel
#

i did care about how good the benchmarks were

ashen spindle
#

yeah but if after a year you paid as much extra in electricity as the difference in gpus was, you saved nothing xD

rigid tinsel
#

i dont need to save, this is a hobby im spending money on

ashen spindle
#

well then price to performance doesnt mean anything either xD

marsh glade
rigid tinsel
#

hmm well, i wouldnt say so

#

i could keep the cost down for power draw if i just dont use it, but im not gonna be able to play better looking games if i buy a worse processor

#

i was specifically looking for something with the ability to play on good settings a couple years in the future so i wouldnt have to go through the whole ordeal of building a PC again, but i also didnt want to pay the premium for getting the highest possible specs

astral haven
#

so you bought nvidia?

rigid tinsel
#

actually i ended up paying the premium for the highest possible specs on processor cause i paid for it as a business expense but thats generally the route i would go down

#

buying PC parts is like buying a car from your net income, why would i end up taxing myself twice, once on the paycheck and then on the vat

spiral island
#

Remember, the best trick to tax evasion is to not talk about tax evasion

rigid tinsel
#

XD

#

i mean do need that stuff for business

#

sooo

spiral island
#

So long as you only use it for work you're good!

lyric hatch
#

AMD beats intel in every category I care about power is way too much here 💸

rigid tinsel
#

my old work laptop was infuriating to work on with shitty laptop cpu and 8gb of ram, if it aint fast it cuts into my productivity

astral haven
rigid tinsel
#

the original article was amd vs intel

#

and cpus

lyric hatch
#

Yeah not sure how it became gpu but it originally started as cpu

astral haven
#

it also wasnt talking about power either

#

but when it was talking about power, it was on gpus

#

because cpus dont use much power when gaming

rigid tinsel
#

i think that was implied then, i also didnt realize thats just an argument youd make for gpu

#

i went with nvidia on gpu because ray tracing for the most part and cause my last 3 cards were nvidia

lyric hatch
#

I mean 14900k was like having a 4060ti running while gaming

rigid tinsel
#

last time i had an AMD gpu they were still called ATI probably

astral haven
#

youd save more power with intel+nv than you would amd+amd
obv best is amd+nvidia,

rigid tinsel
#

but its never about how much they draw when theyre both running 100% load benchmarks, thats not a real world application, you want the cpu not to bottleneck you and get all the processing power out of your gpu, at least when youre gaming

astral haven

#

i was quite small at the time haha, i just had a shitty passed down office PC back then

#

i remember my dad buying me like a graphics card from ati the size of idk what would be today a pci-e network card or sth

#

not even comparable to the bricks spanning 3 pci slots we use today..

astral haven
#

you say that but heres the top end of nics these days

rigid tinsel
#

XD

#

it was basically just the pcb with a little heatsink and a fan on it

#

when i got my first weekend job and upgraded to a 660 TI that was like a monster in comparison

astral haven
#

i hope its 2x400g lol

gusty kiln
#

Ah

astral haven
#

rip its 2x200g

gusty kiln
#

Do you use copper or fiber optic for that?

astral haven
#

usually copper, fiber is incredibly expensive and higher latency

We review Cyberpower's pre-built gaming PC with an AMD Ryzen 9800X3D CPU in it. The system has all the right components, a competitive price, and a horrible cooling solution that throttles the CPU by 200 MHz all-core. It's an unfortunate story as old as our first reviews of Cyberpower's...

Hey I got my wooting uwu today. I’m trying to set that up on a Mac, it got detected at first and I tried to update it. When the update failed I removed the device from the wooting app and now the device is not getting detected. Can anyone help?

I know they’re releasing an ultra version of this cooler sometime this month

unkempt lake
#

@magic minnow i noticed you got the sn770 2tb

magic minnow
unkempt lake
#

The 2tb has a software update to fix an issue with windows 24h2

#

make sure to have him do it

#

When he builds takes a second

#

It may already be updated cuz it was months ago

magic minnow
#

Yeah I’m gonna set the rig up here and then when I go home I’ll give it to him

#

So I’ll update that

unkempt lake
#

I just remember a bug with some of the 2tb versions its very wasy to patch with the wd software

ngl im looking for like 3 other upgrades

magic minnow

Also i'd argue the keycaps on the wooting would make more of a difference if you're using the stock ones

#

The stock keycaps don't sound the greatest

#

As they're not very thick

somber coral
#

ah alr

#

you got reccomendations?

#

also Bakeneko60 o-rings. or Graveshift Medium 30a-50a o-rings

30a btw

magic minnow
# somber coral ah alr

GMK are the priciest but the material is ABS so they shine faster, and then there’s pbtfans or pbt material which is meant to last longer before the shine starts

Ay yo I wanted to ask is there a difference between Corsair ddr5 6400 ram and Gskill trident?

#

Is it all just RGB or what

somber coral
#

i mean the timings ig?

#

mostly speed and timings, and if you care warranty ig

unkempt lake
#

Literally it's just the headspreader and the warranty

ashen spindle
#

if you have an amd cpu just grab any ddr5 6000 kit

wheat yacht
#

Really? I have been having so much issues with my ram ngl I just keep crashing

#

I even set it down to 6000

ashen spindle
#

whats your cpu

wheat yacht
unkempt lake
#

Also when's the last time you did a bios update

wheat yacht
ashen spindle
#

try setting it below 6000 if that helps like 5800

wheat yacht
ashen spindle
#

or maybe need to upp some timings if you manually change the xmp settings

gentle osprey
#

Alright now I'll buy an air cooler for aesthetics over an AIO

unkempt lake
#

If you get more great but you may just have a dud with a shitty IMC

wheat yacht
#

Damn really?

unkempt lake
#

Yep

wheat yacht
#

Idk i changed out these sticks multiple times

unkempt lake
#

It's called the silicon lottery for a reason

#

The imc is on the cpu directly

wheat yacht
#

I thought it was just the cpu and gpu that are affected by the silicon lottery

#

It’s all luck with ram too?

unkempt lake
#

Your cpu isn't bad it meets the requirements set by amd, anything extra you gain is technically an overclock

#

The imc is on the cpu

#

The ram itself is fine

#

They test it at the factory

wheat yacht
#

Micro has warranty so I may trade out the cpu

unkempt lake
#

not covered

wheat yacht
#

No I bought extra warranty

unkempt lake
#

It's... not a defect

#

Can you tun it at 5200

#

Lol

wheat yacht
#

the workers there said I can just come and trade it in tho

unkempt lake
#

But start by updating your bios

wheat yacht
#

Yeah I prolly will

magic minnow
#

Dude it runs wayyyy cooler now joepray

Qwertykeys Halts Keyboard Shipments To US Over Tariff Costs and Confusion

marsh glade
#

Tariffs = price goes up? Wild theory

cursive summit
#

Republicans in charge = normal people suffer and oligarchs get richer? Just natural order of things

marsh glade
#

For some context though, their business model was shipping individual keyboards to end customers which qualified for the import duty exemption for parcels valued under $800. This having been removed for shipments with Country of Origin in China has a dramatic impact on shipping costs and duties. Since we import freight into the US, these new tariffs have less of an impact on our costs than it did for QWERTYkeys

#

Removing that exemption is needed though, it incentivizes businesses to ship tons of parcels (4+ million PER DAY) instead of bulk freight, which makes custom's job much harder

ashen spindle
#

Yeah the whole cheap shipping from China needs to stop regardless of tariffs and co

halcyon moss
#

Yeah it's the biggest reason why temu and Ali are appealing

reef patrol

Ali isn't an issue anymore, cause they do import duties.

#

I just got my time window for delivery for my 2he a couple mins ago, I haven't been able to actually try it was just an assumption I'd made because I've had webhid and webusb working seperately and finding out the application was webbased and the keyboard handled everything I assumed it worked through means like that and would work on android too, was surprised to hear webhid and webusb not being thought to both be supported on any android versions

#

So I don't expect it to work now

pale trellis

shell bolt
#

Sorry I got a phone call I meant to add a bit more. Since the dev wasn't aware of them being able to work on android atleast in the past unless something changed idk then the Web app won't be implementing them so won't be communicating properly 👍🏻 that could hopefully change tho

me neither 😂

#

i’m perfectly content with a white 5080

gentle osprey
#

That is the card I want tho lol

#

just not in a rush

scenic horizon
#

it’s a powerhouse of a card i won’t lie, but $3000 msrp is insane

gentle osprey
#

yeah $1000 for an air cooler and a 4th fan that doesn't do much

scenic horizon
#

have you seen the temps on the msi cards?? they run sooo much cooler

gentle osprey
#

love the design tho

#

yeah the MSI cards seem the best this time around

#

but I am not a fan of their designs

scenic horizon
#

kinda surprised initially

gentle osprey
#

stupid dragons

scenic horizon
#

i’ve heard bad things about afterburner tho

gentle osprey
#

MSI would be a much cleaner AIB Partner if they got rid of their dumb dragon logos everywhere

#

just make everything all black like Tomahawk boards

scenic horizon
#

i’ve had a FE, a zotac, and now a gigabyte

gentle osprey
#

I think MSI makes great products just remove the dragons pls, that's all

balmy vector
#

Their logo is better when its the cute version

scenic horizon
#

i really like gigabyte eagle i think its cool on my motherboard

#

that and the aero is a very classy 2.5 slot

gentle osprey
#

Remove dragon

#

would''ve been one of the cleanest cards

reef patrol

Apply isopropyl aplenty.

#

i’m surprised i’ve hear a lot of mixed things about gigabyte, but i’ve loved it so far the last year

gentle osprey
#

Remove the RGB Dragons too

so ugly

scenic horizon
gentle osprey
#

The LEDs are horrendous tho

steady sail
gentle osprey
#

reminds me of Corsair LEDs

how you can see each individual LED

#

ugly

scenic horizon
#

the new zotac’s with the infinity RGB is really neat

#

if only their software was better

#

the MSI suprim looks clean tho

gentle osprey
#

Yeah not a fan of the diamond logos

#

but better

#

this I hate

#

can see every LED

thru the diffuser

might as well not have a diffuser at all

i have the gigabyte aero 5080

very very clean card

only one RGB and that’s just the “aero”

Im still sad that asus didnt used this strix design for the 40 series

sharp badger
#

Suprim would be great but the backplate could be better looking

steady sail
#

Its me but i never care about the design of a card xd

#

Sure there is a few that looks really nice but shrug

sharp badger
#

Well kinda the same because i look at the monitor not the pc

#

But FE cards are smol and fits everything so would just want smaller cards not so damn long

steady sail
#

Thats why i wanna get 2 fan versions xd

sharp badger
#

Will probably not get a 5090 like that other than the FE

steady sail
#

I dont need a titan class card xd

sharp badger
#

Skeptical even if the 5080 will get a two fan edition

steady sail
#

With the prices of those cards i dont even gonna look

#

The cheapest 5080 is 1400€

sharp badger
#

Actually nvm the AIO cooled cards are small but then you have to fit the rad somewhere

zealous halo
#

A watercooled FE would tiny as hell compared to others.

sharp badger
#

It's 1230€ here

#

Just don't think that the 5080 vram will hold up would rather jump to the 5090

steady sail
#

Im happy with 12gb vram

zealous halo
sharp badger
#

& yes, vram isn't everything and getting a bigger bus width bla bla bla whatever, Super cards might just be a better choice

steady sail
#

For me 16gb of vram is more then enough as I wouldn’t use ray traycing xd

#

Imo for 1440p high graphics settings 16gb of vram is enough xd

sharp badger
#

The 3080 i've using has been fine for the games that i've played and still play

zealous halo
#

I struggle with Assetto Corsa Evo and it’s vram, with 21:9 and 1440p it’s hard to get a good framerate in the games early state with its new engine.

#

And I got a 3070

steady sail
#

I mean the 3070 is not a card for UW

sharp badger
#

Will just try to prolong this current PCs life longer, the games that are releasing this year isn't that interesting currently either so feels like a upgrade is not worth if from my point but we're in different situations so

zealous halo
steady sail

I just want a better 1440p experience performance wise

It’s sad that most games rely on Frame Gen and Upscaling. They could just optimize it more and more gamers could enjoy it ^^

I mean u could just buy a used 3090 and call it a day xd

No, release unoptimized game and use DLSS/FSR as a crutch and sell the game to people in that condition, then we'll take our sweet time optimizing for the next 2 years

oblique solstice

yo guys what cpu would u pair with the 4070 ti super for a 360hz 1080p display?

fair gull
#

super complicated to just have a background and some dots floating around?

ashen spindle
#

nah you just make the normal background animation you want and select build target android and hit build

oblique solstice
#

7800x3d?

#

or stronger?

fair gull
#

or well

#

i only have the original hsls shaders and java code

#

and textures ofc

ashen spindle
#

ah then either just have that be the render target or put it on a cube that the camera has in view frustrum and done

oblique solstice
#

cuz thing is im still bottlenecked by my old 12700k on 1080p in cod

#

idk its a strong card

#

super*

#

its a 4k capable card no?

ashen spindle
#

if you want 360hz look at the 9800x3d and if thats out of budget scale it down to 7800x3d and if thats out of range grab a 9600x or something like that

fair gull
oblique solstice

i want 300+ mainly for CoD

i gave up trying to fix the opengl java port

oblique solstice

ashen spindle

oh well running it as a background service is a bit trickier

oblique solstice

it does theyt fixed it

fair gull
#

i already found a plugin to make it a live wallpaper

#

idk how to do the whole rest basically

#

lol

ashen spindle
#

oh lol yeah then just make a scene, put a camera in, remove light and everything, put a quad in the camera view frustrum, put the material with your shader on the quad, done

fair gull
#

would the background having a mesh thats stored in csv complicate it much

#

dont ask me why its a csv

#

only sony knows

ashen spindle
#

uhhh

#

idk if it can just import it from the csv directly

ashen spindle
#

but if you just want to have more in the view just put it there

#

hardest part really is just to make it run as background application, so whatever that plugin does

fair gull
#

im too dumb to do it in unity

ashen spindle
#

what step, making the shader code work in it?

#

or having the plugin build it correctly?

fair gull
#

i basically got the vertices and vertex colors in all right but the shader only leaves it white

#

it doesnt color in the vertex colors

#

the vertex colors is also why the mesh is a csv

#

its x,y coords followed by the rgb per coord

ashen spindle
#

ah so probably missing the right keywords to make it use the value from the vertex buffer or something, throw it into an LLM that should be able to find the simple missing keywords or struct names

fair gull
#

the llm is what gave me the shader

#

lol

ashen spindle
#

oh lel

fair gull
#

most of what i did now was LLM powered cause docs on this ancient android stuff isnt available anymore and the binary blob is smth i couldnt just decompile

#

but chatgpt was surprisingly competent and figuring out what the app does

#

it even figured out that the binary blob does particle lifetime, touch reactions and randomized floating movements

#

it sucked at writing the c# code though

you can dm me the shader code maybe I remember the vertex keywords and thins
