Although maybe it's not so bad given the size

but the one that bends is cool

#

I just wish LG would make something normal

#

I prefer WOLED to QD-OLED but they just want to make stupid bendable shit

gentle osprey
#

Yeah Im waiting for reviews on it

#

Wanna see how it is

#

heres a normal one lol

nimble arch
#

It's not full 80 Gbps DP2.1 but otherwise seems great

#

Should still be enough for 1440p 480Hz without DSC though

gentle osprey

Yeah

5600X/6900XT

just casually been making 5+ year entire system upgrades except now with the AM5 up to 7800x3d

trim crane
gentle osprey
#

Nah no trouble

#

Just wanted to switch to AM5 for the longevity and gaming performance

trim crane
#

AM5 is goated ngl

digital cliff
#

no it's garbage actually, I've never had more issues -- whether it's because AssUs mobo is trash or because DDR5 is finicky but in general I've not enjoyed one second on AM5 whereas on AM4 everything just worked all the time without me having to touch anything

#

with memory training and having to set particular UEFI options to even get to UEFI on dGPU, I spent like 3-4 hours after my build just troubleshooting

gentle osprey
#

Windows was hurting performance too lol

sudden imp
#

Windows

digital cliff
#

to get EXPO on too, just so finicky

gentle osprey

Yeah I've had some issues with memory forsure

luckily I found the golden settings and now I'm really careful not to touch anything haha

#

meanwhile I'm seriously trying to get a 5090 since I just saw I could sell my 4090 for more than I bought it due to low supply of everything atm lmfao

digital cliff
#

people be insane

#

coulda bought a 4090 before when it was available but no

ashen spindle
#

I mean yeah but also no supply and they did stop making 4090s in like september so thats only been old stock since then

digital cliff
#

have to buy it when they can't have it

ashen spindle
#

so if someone just now has money to upgrade they dont have any options

trim crane
digital cliff
#

a sane person waits

trim crane
#

boot usually takes 10-15s

digital cliff
#

a sane person recognizes the current market rips them off and most likely their life isn't dependent on their PC's gaming power so they can probably wait until prices are back to something sane

#

but I guess there's enough people with more money than sense buying a year old product for more than it sold for when it was new

nimble arch
#

I have 35-36 seconds of BIOS time according to Windows 11 but otherwise AM5 has been really good for me

#

7800X3D is an absolutely monster CPU that just runs any game I throw at it

Bottlenecked in many games by only having a 120 Hz OLED

Oh yeah

Do you got a picture with all the panels on?

I was like wait I can get exactly what I paid for my 4090

trim crane
ashen spindle

yeah but I'm glad I didnt get one first batch with all these issues they all have lmao

gentle osprey

right same lol

#

I was like yeah I'm not in a rush like that

Maybe next gen price to performance will improve COPIUM

how do a 1440p 144Hz can actually refresh at 285Hz max when i downgrade the resolution to 1080p?

#

i'm kinda wondering why

rough osprey
#

have u checked for frame skipping?

ashen spindle
#

whats the monitor name

latent mural
spiral plume
#

i tried with 960fps slowmo

spiral plume
spiral plume
# latent mural what

i'm clue less, last time i overclocked a 1080p monitor from 60 to 109 and i thought it was good and fair since it was already lower than the actual max since it could allow for less tearing

rough osprey
ashen spindle
#

they have a 1080p 240hz is it maybe the same panel

#

could be the panel can do 240 but the controller cant unless you lower resolution

spiral plume
ashen spindle
#

no I'm saying they might be using the same panel on the 1080p240hz model just doing nearest neighbor scaling and acting like a 1080p screen

spiral plume
#

idk so

#

seems weird

#

it is versatile for no reasons

#

not gonna complain lmao

astral haven
#

id be real careful, often you are frame skipping galore on those monitors

spiral plume
astral haven
#

any monitor running decently high pixel rates

spiral plume
#

i rewatched the slow mo vid frame by frame, and i can see one skip every 3 to 5 frames (i can't be sure it's the monitor as my pc is laggy as hell)

astral haven
#

you have to use testufo

spiral plume
#

it's what i did

astral haven
#

take a 1 second picture of this

#

not video

spiral plume
astral haven
#

wrong link

astral haven
spiral plume
#

oh xD

#

my bad

#

ooooh i see

spiral plume
astral haven
#

"some"

spiral plume
#

xD

#

it's clearer

#

so it skips, but like why then it does not glitch out like other monitor going above their refresh speed?

astral haven
#

you are getting near perfect 144hz

so 6 missing

astral haven

perfect 144Hz

#

yup

spiral plume

i got it

rough osprey
#

sad

spiral plume
spiral plume
#

it's only my laptop screen that can get actual overclock

#

it's funny

astral haven
#

usually laptop screens are the most directly hooked up to the gpu

spiral plume
#

with mux right?

#

i don't have it sadly

#

it's running through gpu > cpu > screen

astral haven
#

i mean gpu generally, igpu still counts
on monitor theres the monitor controller (scaler) inside in the way

spiral plume
#

aaah

#

yeah it was obvious 😅

lyric hatch
#

finally started playing around with good lock on my phone

#

some nice customization options

onyx mountain
#

what phone

lyric hatch
onyx mountain
#

ah yep, ive gone every gen since s23

#

got my s25 ultra a few days ago

lyric hatch
#

Nice how you liking it?

onyx mountain
#

yeah good, the shape and flat screen is so much nicer

#

feels way better in the hand

#

and the curved glass always felt cheap to me

lyric hatch
#

Yeah plus it's easier to replace a flat screen (and usually cheaper too)

onyx mountain
#

when you have a case on, the bezels basically dont exist

#

theyre so small

lyric hatch
#

Yeah I'm excited should be a nice upgrade from my base s21

onyx mountain
#

should be a massive upgrade

#

i went from iphone 13, to fold 4, to s23,24,25 ultra

lyric hatch
#

The trade in deals are pretty crazy

onyx mountain
#

i dont think we get crazy trade in deals here in aus like everywhere else

#

i just pay an extra $15 a month and swap phones every 12 months

lyric hatch
#

Yeah my trade ins aren't great in NZ but I've stacked coupons to get the price down to $900 USD after taxes and for the 512gb model

onyx mountain
#

if i want to, i could just go between the fold and the flagship every 6 months as they release

#

i just dont because i need quadlock case support

#

yeah

#

rip

#

i also use it in my car

#

and on push bike (for the rare occasion i ride one)

halcyon moss
#

(I came from s21u)

onyx mountain
#

ive never noticed phone speed (since my iphone) but masybe thats because of how i use it

halcyon moss
#

No that's because you upgrade every year, then there is no 4 year difference

onyx mountain
#

no i mean, ive never had my phone feel slow

#

but my iphone felt like dogshit, hence why i swapped over

halcyon moss
#

Biggest change is oneui7. Gotta change some settings to have it be more like it was before

onyx mountain
#

yeah that was annoying

#

but its nice

halcyon moss
#

Like the right corner swipe for settings.. I changed it back to the extra swipe in notifications

onyx mountain
#

me too

halcyon moss
#

Lowered animationspeed..

onyx mountain
#

yeah, i set mine to 0.5x, changed to extra swipe, increased to qhd

#

changed some camera settings

lyric hatch
#

And I might actually have to use a case with this phone

#

Just not sure which one

halcyon moss
#

I got the spigen Ultra Hybrid S (MagFit)

So far so good

onyx mountain
#

dbrand ghost case or whatever it is looks good

lyric hatch
#

I like the spigen cases but not a fan of the camera cut out

onyx mountain
#

yeah their camera cutout is wack

halcyon moss
#

It's just a hole?

onyx mountain
#

its like two individual holes

#

one for the 3 cameras on the left, and one for the other camera + ir and flash

#

lifetime guarantee itll never yellow

lyric hatch
#

Yeah would prefer cutouts for each camera

onyx mountain
#

either individual cutouts or one big one for me

#

quadlock has one big cutout, it looks tasteful

lyric hatch
#

I like the pitaka one

onyx mountain
#

part of me wants a clear case, but dont really have that option

unkempt lake
#

And the QA is bad

#

On dbrand stuff

unkempt lake

but well iphone 14 pro version

They're super cheap too so...

Do hdmi and dp even use the same protocol/have the same # of pins etc?

analog sinew

well worst case it needs a converter chip

rough patrol
#

Yeah i dont think itll be a simple thing

distant tapir
#

The converter is an active one that needs USB power

rough patrol
#

Are you running a crt off that?

distant tapir
#

None of this is ideal but as long as it works shortterm until I get a GPU I'll be happy

distant tapir

Ah your pc doesnt have a gpu

declare attribute in vertex shader

get attribute position in array

always reads a s -1

#

WHY DOES IT WORK AS A VEC2 BUT NOT FLOAT

#

what is this black magic

#

was 2 float attribs before and it never worked for size

#

combine into vec2 makes it magically work

#

or not it broke after a few compiles

#

what the crap is going on

#

na the debug build is without any optimizations

#

just hardcoding the positions works

#

wonder if its some bug or issue with the function to retrieve the location

ASUS ends promotion for its only MSRP RTX 5080 card NVIDIA MSRP cards make no sense anymore.  There’s no other way to put it, ASUS has manipulated NVIDIA’s MSRP system for launch reviews. Their cheapest RTX 5080, the PRIME model, was initially launched as an MSRP card and included in “MSRP-only” reviews. However, it is […]

could also be beacuse its a SFF build so the hot air likely just heated up the case even more

statistically speaking chrome is naturally occuring in all humans, just like chromium on your pc

That's true

Edge is a browser held back by bullshit from the company behind it 😄

i mean they could just bundle chromium

My phone fell to the ground and now it says I have no sim card. I reinserted it three times and I still get that message. Anybody ever had this problem?

id imagine this depends on how it falls and can happen on most phones

digital cliff

#

however windows is a pile of dog shit

topaz fog
#

i dont really get the motivation from people to use edge, doesn't it give the same ick as using google chrome, for the same reasons?

reef patrol

I'll never know, because I need an adblocker just to get through the intro process. 😄

wind parrot

and edge looks nicer then chrome and performs better

those who do, use firefox

chrome/chromium works the best imo, annoyingly

i mean chromium is made by google and chrome is just their reskin of chromium

you can't webdev unless you use chrome?

id use FF if it wasnt going down the crapper and actually good

yeah and you don’t wanna use operagx lmao that browser sucks balls

topaz fog
#

(because the majority of everyone is using chrome)

latent mural
#

I use librewolf and just feel fine with it

fair gull
digital cliff
#

that's really the issue, isn't it. everyone is using chrome so websites and libraries are built for chrome, so ff just does worse on account of nobody bothering to optimize for it

#

ergo, more people use chrome again

wind parrot
latent mural
fair gull
#

i really loved FF for years.... but it spiraled down and the latest news i keep hearing make me feel like i took the right turn when switching to arc on windows

digital cliff
#

what are the latest news

fair gull
#

its just FF getting worse and worse for privacy

digital cliff
#

what are some concrete examples of that

fair gull
#

and ofc native performance of video playback etc

latent mural
#

Arc? Never heard of that browser

reef patrol
#

Arc isn't much of an alternative given how they ceased development.,

latent mural
#

Sounds niche

digital cliff
#

it's a mac browser for hipsters or something like that

frozen ingot
#

everythings getting worse for privacy

fair gull

#

vpn yourself to the teeth if you care about that shit in this age

wind parrot
#

fair gull
#

frozen ingot
#

even then its hard to avoid entirely with endless sign ins to do so much

digital cliff
latent mural
#

Yeah sadly privacy isnt really a thing anymore

fair gull
frozen ingot
#

sadly the corporations have money

fair gull
#

from how i understood it they wanna make a new browser with what they learned from arc but fresh start to not keep tech debt

reef patrol
#

Sure sounds like a roundabout way of saying they ceased development.

fair gull
#

if they ceased it would mean no updates at all

digital cliff
#

does it really matter if it works

fair gull
#

nope

#

well i guess yesnt. it wouldnt matter if they actually release another browser that better

reef patrol
digital cliff
#

again, if it works then what does it matter if it never gets updated

fair gull
#

it gets updated

#

thats the thing

#

they even fix use after free issues in chromium

#

they just dont add new features

digital cliff
#

like either it's good for you now and then it doesn't matter if gets updates

or it's bad for you now and then it doesn't matter whether it gets updated or not because you aren't using it

fair gull
#

its not like they just upgrade the chromium they build upon

#

this is one im somewhat excited for though

#

sans their issues of their website not even rendering correctly at the beginning of the project id love to see what they come up with

digital cliff
#

yeah it's gonna be great in 3-4 years if they can keep development up

fair gull
#

better than never

digital cliff
#

not gonna even release for 2 and then probably takes another couple years to get to somewhat feature-parity with the big ones out there

#

with all this development overhead I wonder what kind of monetizing scheme they'll run

fair gull
#

wonder if it could replace firefox as the main chromium alternative

i'm not really even sure what the other browsers offer since I've used firefox always

steady sail
#

i just hope that vivaldi fixes webhid one day Prayge

digital cliff
#

is it another chromium-skin?

steady sail
#

yeah

#

or i think idk

digital cliff
#

what's the value proposition

steady sail
digital cliff
#

so the same as everyone else that isn't Chrome it seems

#

ngl I'm intrigued to try opera or vivaldi or brave or any other of the chromium skins but I'm just too invested in how I've set FF up that it would be a bother to set a new browser up again

fair gull
#

i think for me it was purely arc tab management that i couldnt nicely replicate in FF which made me switch

digital cliff
#

yeah I dunno about any of that, I don't really use tabs

#

if i have a few things open at a time it doesn't really matter how I "organize" them or so

#

whether they are laid 123 or 321 or 213 makes no difference I guess

lyric hatch
fair gull
#

for me its mainly i keep tabs open more like bookmarks because bookmarks themselves is smth i tend to forget about as well as being palced in the menubar which (at least for me) is odd. so i tend to keep tabs open of what i wanna look at later or keep an eye on. some of those even lead to mem leaks before crashing my browser (thanks wowhead)

reef patrol
#

Do you not have auto-hibernation for your tabs?

digital cliff
#

yeah I see, my browser starts fresh on every boot

#

no tabs brought over no cookies brought over

fair gull
#

but those never worked for me

reef patrol
fair gull
#

yeah id even go with other chromium browsers but i have experienced tabs and previous sessions being permanently lost from just shutting down windows and booting it back up before. not too recently my gf had the same happen

#

so arc played right into my cards with bookmarks being tabs themselves

lyric hatch
#

I think brave also has a better mobile app imo

latent mural
#

For mobile brave is the goat

#

For desktop ive settled on libewolf after trying various browsers

One of my other friends is mad cos he had to settle for a 4070ti

why did they not just get a 4090 though

open walrus

😂, the other 60% is on eBay for £4000

open walrus
#

Just praying that my GPU power connector doesn't melt like I've seen in some posts on pcmr subreddit

#

I guess as long as I'm using the provided cable I should be covered as far as warranty goes.

#

But I seriously think they should have put two 8 pin power sockets on the GPU as opposed to the one. It's just such a big gamble

#

I don't care if it looks ugly bruh

open walrus
#

From what I've seen it's due to people using third party connectors

#

But it still feels like too much power to push through 8 pins

New GPU idea: PSU is attached directly to it

If they at least designed it so the cable fails before the GPU does at least I could save money on that

That being said the 5090fe is tiny in comparison to aib 5090s

its just well engineered thermally

unlike the AIBs

Tbh I've not had thermal issues with my 5090, runs at around 45-50

That being said it's probably chilling compared to my 5800x which is running at 90 💀

yes but the reason they are big is the comparitively bad thermal solution

I never understood why these cables have so many plugs on them up along it

#

Anybody eggsplain?

balmy vector
#

For if you have more devices that require sata power

ashen spindle
#

Yeah since it’s low power you don’t need multiple cables for multiple hdds

spiral island
#

PCs also used to have more demand for SATA devices. You can build one now without using SATA at all, but go back a bit and most would have at least one optical and one disk drive.

gusty kiln
#

Still plenty of people building home servers atm so sata power cables like that are still very much needed

digital cliff
#

yeah it's just that since you can have multiple device plugged into one cable since it's so low power, why not

#

it's ugly and inconvenient, but cheapest way to accommodate everyone's needs

#

I specifically did away with all SATA devices in my newest build just to avoid these cables because I hate em

gusty kiln
#

Yeah pc + nas is the best way for clean system

But idk about all that extra power through the mobo

ashen spindle
#

should just do the same as nvidia did with quadros, use EPS connectors and each one is 300W

#

so 2 of them mean 675W max TDP possible on a card

would mean same cable for cpu, gpu, everything but sata/24pin basically

sorry to say, but unfortunately that's just how it is

#

I have a little conjecture however, but I can't test it myself till either someone wants me to put something together with that aio for them, or till I refit mine

it might be possible to screw in the aio into the mounting brackets, and then screw the brackets in

magic minnow

No splitters?

distant tapir
magic minnow
#

Usually coolers come with one

distant tapir

Don't think there is one, no

reef patrol
#

Kind of depends on how it's built.

#

Some AIOs do everything with just the CPU plug, others use CPU fan and a secondary one, or uses SATA/USB to control itself.

cunning charm
#

some mobos also have a dedicated aio plug

reef patrol
#

Yeah that's the pump one. Still need to make sure the AIO is designed for it.

thats literally what he is using

gaunt obsidian
#

the thread says 12VHPWR

#

the pins are longer there

ashen spindle
#

12V-2x6 only changes the wires in the slots, the cables stay the same and every 50 series is using that

#

the post says it because thats the name people know because the naming is stupid as well

gaunt obsidian
#

yes but by using 12v-2x6 the card shouldnt work if the cable isnt plugged in properly

ashen spindle
#

no it just lowers the risk of it not being correctly working

#

its still just assuming the cable is correctly slotted by using the sense pins, its not checking if the pins are connected correctly

#

and again, he IS using 12v-2x6

gaunt obsidian
#

hes saying the cables and psu are from a psu 2 years ago, there was no 12v-2x6? didnt read the whole thread, but what lets u assume its the newer one?

ashen spindle

the cables dont change with 12v-2x6

there is no new 12v-2x6 cable

gaunt obsidian

isnt there the h++ / vs h+ label thing?

ashen spindle
gaunt obsidian
#

which is a 2mm imprint on the plastic? havo

#

my cable got the h++ imprint

#

but it seems like it only changes the possible power

#

600w vs 675

ashen spindle
#

yes and the changes that article describes are changes in the connector aka the part on the gpu the cables just have it because marketing and to show it follows the latest spec, which for the cables is identical

gaunt obsidian

in this case their marketing got me. learned something, thank you Balder

do the repair channels report that they are constantly doing them so much that they only show some of them on the channels?

# unkempt lake Yes lol

alright, if thats true, let me know which video he said it in, im willing to do the skimming, but only of 1 video

I hope they melt more so it becomes properly common place so people just disregard the issue

I assume you mean "it's better taht the connector melts than something else"

well, ideally, I'd have the whole card be set on fire but I'll take what I can get really

Why not just shorten the sense pins so it won't run with the connector not seated?

they did, it didnt work

they updated it mid cycle on 40 series, and there were still afaik 2 burns after that

@astral haven this is an exceptional failure which is why he was talking about it but in the intro he talks about how many he's had come in with burnt connectors before but that this is an exception and that it's why he's showcasing it.
