[unkempt lake]

But besides that no complaints

[gentle osprey]

yeah rgb software sucks bad

[sharp badger]

I've got the Z690 aorus pro which has worked fine with the 12700k

[gentle osprey]

caused my PC to BSOD sometimes

[unkempt lake]

I JUST WANTED TO TURN THE RGB OFF

[gentle osprey]

Yeah I set it to a single color or off then uninstall

[unkempt lake]

but yeah at least once it was setup i could uninstall the software

[brisk topaz]

Both my friend and i got gigabyte motherboards for an intel build because the motherboard was on sale and looked sick. We both ended up with a random issue where the motherboard refused to post and the bios bricked itself. Both of us. Gigabyte sent replacements to us both. The issue happened again to us both 2 months and 5 months later. I dont recommend gigabyte

[unkempt lake]

Same

[sharp badger]

And i haven't had a single issue

[vagrant pagoda]

so zen4/5 only have gen5 phys, so its all on the chipset

[unkempt lake]

I had uh a z390 aorus pro wifi?

[brisk topaz]

Its a common occurence with gigabyte that i wish i looked up before buying

[vagrant pagoda]

so in theory amd could make x990 with 4x5.0 link

[gentle osprey]

Damn that sucks, I hear Gigabyte is pretty decent nowadays tho

at least I think

[brisk topaz]

These were newer like 2017? 2018?

[gentle osprey]

Right yeah figured

[unkempt lake]

It was while i was waiting for the replacement z390 msi board, i ended up selling the replacement board instead of dismantling and returning the gigabyte board

Cuz i couldn't be assed

[scenic lance]

you can turn rgb off in the bios on at least some gigabyte boards

[unkempt lake]

not in the z390 days

[scenic lance]

[brisk topaz]

All i did was search “gigabyte motherboard not posting” and found a lot of people with the same issues ive had in the past with gigabyte. Some even as recent as a few months ago

I dont trust gigabyte

[unkempt lake]

The one i had i had no complaints besides the rgb software and bios layout

[sharp badger]

And i've had mine since '22 and it's been fine

[unkempt lake]

Hell my brother's gf uses it in her pc to this day

[gentle osprey]

Yeah like I said I've only ever had a Gigabyte 4090, never had another product from them so idk, Gamers Nexus made me scared of them when they had exploding PSUs

[brisk topaz]

Better knock on wood xD hope you dont run into the issue of everything having life but never getting display again because the mobo wont post

[gentle osprey]

yeah the gigabyte 4090 was fine besides the RGB software

[unkempt lake]

Asus exploded 7800x3d
Gigabyte exploded psus
Asrock explodes 9800x3d
Msi exposes customer info accidentally

[scenic lance]

bios my b550i aorus shipped with was dodgy and my ethernet port is a little picky about cables. aside from that its been fine for like 3-ish years
i know they do a lot of motherboard revisions that piss people off

[gentle osprey]

I was one of the soldiers who made it out alive during AM5 exploding

[unkempt lake]

I saw something recently about how a b650 mobo doesn't support 9000nseriednif the board isn't rev 1.5 -.-

Thx gigashit

[gentle osprey]

and I had 7800X3D on MSI and ASUS boards

[brisk topaz]

Yea asus’s 7800x3d situation and how they handled it is my one and only complaint with them buuuuuuuut i still love asus as my main brand.

[gentle osprey]

yeah they handled that poorly

[scenic lance]

[brisk topaz]

Very. But i still love asus.

[gentle osprey]

Yeah I still enjoy their aesthetic

[brisk topaz]

To be fair though i think asus just had miscommunication within the company while being fully aware of what was really happening

[unkempt lake]

The gigabyte b650 ganing x ax if you're wondering

[brisk topaz]

Not to defend them just thinking internally

[unkempt lake]

Rev 1.5 supports 9800x3d, revs under 1.5 never got a bios update @scenic lance

And gigabyte has no plan to fix it

Lol

[gentle osprey]

That's weird to me when every other board can just BIOS update for new CPUs

[sharp badger]

This LGA 1700 might be my last PC build

[brisk topaz]

Another reason to not buy gigabyte

[unkempt lake]

Ikr

But it's out there and documented, it's why there's so many open box of that mobo

[brisk topaz]

Dashi wheres your cat

[scenic lance]

super weird behaviour by them, i know boards at least as old as b550 are still getting bios updates as recently as last month

[unkempt lake]

People buy it try to use it with a 9800x3d, are unablento use it and return it

[unkempt lake]

Probably a specific problem with this model

[unkempt lake]

I'll go find her

[vagrant pagoda]

you mean 650? 550 is am4

[sharp badger]

Just feel like gaming has turned bland again even though there's great games releasing but just don't feel the need to want to play them when there's other things to do

[scenic lance]

no, i meant b550

[vagrant pagoda]

550 isnt getting a 9800 update

[vapid ruin]

it's alright, same thing happening with AI imo, everything is just a copy of the previous version with slightly higher benchmark numbers.

[scenic lance]

obviously my point was, its weird for them to drop support for newer boards when they're supporting am4

[vagrant pagoda]

its more like the old hardware revision has a defect they fixed

[sharp badger]

Yes, exactly

[vagrant pagoda]

and thus it isnt compatible with new cpus

[brisk topaz]

https://tenor.com/view/lily-in-the-morning-grumpy-cat-gif-27120729

[unkempt lake]

Customers get fucked

[scenic lance]

definitely could be, i think the majority of their revisions (at least that i've seen) are just revised because of network/wifi/bluetooth modules

so i cant see how that'd block support for the 9800x3d but who knows

[ashen spindle]

but for a high end platform in 2030 or whenever zen7 comes out thats pathetic thats my issue, the normal consumer doesnt need it but if you want to pretend to be the marketleader you cant have a shit high end chipset for a decade

especially if people end up using more pcie lanes for idk what, LLMs stored on ai hardware or something less wastefull it'd just suck being stuck like that

[vagrant pagoda]

thats if you pretend threadripper dosent exist

llms dont care about cpu, so older tr would be fine

you can get 3000 pro tr systems for the cost of a 9950x3d

[ashen spindle]

okay homelab system then

I dont want to buy a TR that idles at 200W when I just want a pentium with more pcie lanes

I just dont want it to be "well you can do amd for this but if you do x then intel is needed" I'd rather have amd be better and then intel try to have something in addition

[halcyon moss]

Does one even need fast pcie for llms?

[brisk topaz]

Gravity is a weird thing. How do pc’s handle standing up with all this weight pulling down on the side like the cpu cooler and big ass gpu without ever developing any issues?

[ashen spindle]

idk I havent done local llms thats not the point I'm trying to make

could be as simple as saying I need double the storage for my homelab, are you telling someone TR makes sense just because they cheap out on chipset lanes?

[empty wren]

If you built a PC you would know there is likely a back brace for the CPU cooler and sag supports exist for a GPU.

[vagrant pagoda]

i mean sr ws exists too

not like intel dosent make workstations

[brisk topaz]

No i 100% do know that lol

[vagrant pagoda]

thats that e is for

[brisk topaz]

I was wondering how it doesnt cause issues over time

[vagrant pagoda]

adds another m.2

[ashen spindle]

what if I want avx512 as well for example

I just want to have good option vs better option instead of good options vs worse option as choice

[vagrant pagoda]

you are trying to force a market that dosetn exist to exist

you can run 4 m.2 and 2 gpus easily on x870e

there isnt market for something with only 2 memory channels and more io than that

[viral hatch]

Ty I ordered the whole system

Was the ssd I bought good?

[frozen ingot]

fr4 is pretty darn strong

[empty wren]

At least the GPU would be dependent on the connector

[frozen ingot]

also theres like 12 layers of metal circuitry sandwiched inside it

[brisk topaz]

Fr4?

[ashen spindle]

does it say its a samsung ssd? its looks like one but I cant make out the names on the small pictures

if its a samsung 970 yeah thats good

[vagrant pagoda]

also cpu cooler is pulling on the board directly. gpu has the issue of shearing the connector off

[viral hatch]

Ye and it’s pretty cheap 4tb for 48

That’s cheaper than 1tb

[frozen ingot]

glass fibre composite, what they typically make pcbs in

[empty wren]

The GPU issue can technically be avoided with an adapter and reorienting the GPU downward towards gravity

[ashen spindle]

oh no you're definitely getting just 1 TB

[viral hatch]

Really

[ashen spindle]

the same brand just has 1/2/4 TB models

[vagrant pagoda]

fr is flame retardant and 4 is the level

[ashen spindle]

well yeah nobody is going to sell you working hardware for 1/5th the price

[viral hatch]

So I’m paying extra for nothing ?

[ashen spindle]

no you're just paying a normal price

you cant tell me you really thought you can get 4tb for 50 when you before that looked at 2tb for 120 or whatever it was lol

[viral hatch]

Yeah that is true

So can I sue them. For false advertising

[ashen spindle]

??? lmao no

[viral hatch]

Why?

It say 4tb but it’s not

[vagrant pagoda]

lawsuit aginst a random ebay seller XD

[viral hatch]

My friend studied law and passed the bar

So I do have a lawyer

[vagrant pagoda]

good luck

[ashen spindle]

okay cool so your friend can tell you nobody would take this case

[viral hatch]

Then I can use that money to get 5090 stonks

I will ask my friend

[ashen spindle]

its more likely this is a fake 4tb that shows up as 4tb and only is 1, than that you could sue someone and win if its 1tb

at the best best best case you would get 50 bucks back and the lawyer was taking 300 for the filing

[viral hatch]

Ok lemme get proof of them saying it’s 1tb

So I have extra evidence

[viral hatch]

My lawyer will do it for free he owes me for what I do to him to pass the bar

[ashen spindle]

the cost to file the lawsuit would be more than the 50 bucks of damage that happened ehre

what even is that weird looking site

uk ebay?

[viral hatch]

Yes

[viral hatch]

Laws different here in England

[ashen spindle]

no they aren't

[viral hatch]

Ye

They are tho?

[ashen spindle]

compared to the US maybe idk I dont live in the US

[viral hatch]

Where you live

[ashen spindle]

what if I'm about to tell you its the UK

[viral hatch]

Same

Your my neighbour

Tbh

I would just appeal it

And use negotiating skills to get 3000

[empty wren]

Here is what about $50 would get a 4tb refurbished hdd

[viral hatch]

@ashen spindle if you check the image it shows that 1 4tb model is selected for 43gbp

if you mean sharing kb profiles, #🌈│wootabase_profiles, if you mean showing them off, not really. just take pictures of them and show us in #💬│general or #🌐│pc_gear

[dull hollow]

you can find some ideas in #1070668460905988106 too

[pastel galleon]

oh right wootstations too

[dull hollow]

[pastel galleon]

but it's not a strict rule

[somber coral]

wahts like the fastest ethernet i could realistically get

[old marlin]

do you mean like fastest NIC

or fastest ISP

[somber coral]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[old marlin]

and why do you need the fastest, like do you have an actual benefit from that

[somber coral]

ok nic, and also yes i get dopamine from seeing number go boom

[old marlin]

was wondering why my stick took so long to flash, why tf did I put it in the USB 2.0 port

[old marlin]

for home networking, 10 gig, the NIC alone is like 100€, but you will need extra networking equipment and that gets expensive really fast

[somber coral]

yeah i bought a cat8 cable but i realized my mobo only goes up to 2.5gb

[old marlin]

and unless your ISP has more than 1 gig connections which is rare you won't get a benefit

[dull hollow]

ethan dude it’s not your internet it’s your aim

[old marlin]

why tf are people buying so much cat 8

[somber coral]

noha in fort nite i have like 50 ping in a game

[dull hollow]

lower your maximum ping

[somber coral]

gng what

[old marlin]

this is a 4 port switch btw

[dull hollow]

im pretty sure you can filter what servers you play in

with a max ping setting

unless thats a different game and fn doesnt have it

[old marlin]

faster internal networking will not change that a little bit

unless your home network is in an actually bad state rn

[somber coral]

nope fn you just select one server

[dull hollow]

thats just fn servers then

[old marlin]

there is no fix to that

other than maybe switching ISPs

[viral hatch]

I found a rtx 5090 used for 1638 is that a good deal?

[reef patrol]

I'd be a little suspicious. Why do they want to sell the best card on the market all of a sudden?

[viral hatch]

[viral hatch]

Fr I got fastest Ethernet so this should be easy

[topaz schooner]

Can you even write to disk @ 10gig/s?

[ashen spindle]

yes

[old marlin]

not with sata, but with m.2 drives, esp newer ones that ain't an issue

[reef patrol]

RAID? RAID.

[marsh glade]

Who we raiding?

[warm ore]

The Lich King

[marsh glade]

Target acquired: the fridge

[warm ore]

Considering the type, fridge and furthermore some ice cream, sigh.

[thick elk]

On nvme / sas drives yes, sata maxes out at 6gbps, but for an ssd based nas or one with multiple drives, or just a ssd for caching, definitely doable.

[warm ore]

Meanwhile some offtopic (i know nobody cares but anyway), been struggling for two days trying to pre-purchase a phone i wanted, the issue lies with Shopify being dumb when they are limited to a single currency (USD in this case) and you trying to use Klarna with a not matching country/locale/currency.
Been a proper headache.

[marsh glade]

Sounds like the webshop isn't correctly configured

[halcyon moss]

https://tenor.com/view/archer-sterling-archer-hey-phrasing-phrasing-gif-4228674

[warm ore]

One could come to that technical conclusion, but i think quite simply put they use only USD for all transactions because it's advantageous to them, i think several chinese webshops practice that.

[marsh glade]

Klarna has to be individually configured on a per-country basis, irrespective of the base currency

[warm ore]

This is correct, however to register for the proper one (US) in this case, you would need an American billing address and NA phone number, so this will not work for a Hungarian citizen in a satisfactory manner.

(let alone, it will probably not allow you to add your hungarian Debit card to make any sort of payment, even if you somehow magically overcame the rest)

[marsh glade]

What does a US business entity have to do with a Chinese webshop accepting Hungarian orders?

[warm ore]

the Shopify defined currency has to match the locale/country/currency of the Klarna account you use

[marsh glade]

I don't think that's true

[warm ore]

But that is regardless the conclusion that i found by research

[marsh glade]

We have almost a dozen countries that can use Klarna all fed into our euro based store

[warm ore]

Did you add several currency types though? rather than just using one primary?

[marsh glade]

Oh now I remember

We use a middleman

Mollie

[warm ore]

https://docs.klarna.com/platform-solutions/e-commerce-platforms/shopify/payments/known-constraints/ here is one clarification i found like hours into the research

https://docs.klarna.com/payments/web-payments/before-you-start/data-requirements/puchase-countries-currencies-locales/ and then this table shows exactly how a payment could be made apparently

[marsh glade]

https://www.mollie.com/payments

[warm ore]

Does Mollie replace Shopify in your case, or how does this work?

[marsh glade]

Mollie is the payment method set up on Shopify, and then through Mollie additional services are set up including Klarna and a number of others

[warm ore]

Ahh okay so it's yet an additional like

what do we call it

[marsh glade]

Middleman

[warm ore]

i guess so

But this has to be set up by the website owners, correct? Nothing i can do with this info

[marsh glade]

Yea

[warm ore]

Gotcha

[marsh glade]

If they're using Shopify payments then maybe you could add your payment method to a Shop account and pay that way?

[warm ore]

Have to say atleast you guys did it very clever, it seems to accept a broad selection

[marsh glade]

Comes with its own challenges 😅

[warm ore]

I'm not sure what do you exactly refer to

[marsh glade]

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shopify.arrive&hl=en-US

[warm ore]

does this app act as a sort of Middleman itself? trustworthy/you tried personally? i have not heard of it yet.

[marsh glade]

Yes it's essentially a middleman, yes it's trustworthy (owned and operated by Shopify) and no I haven't personally used it for purchases but it is enabled and used on our storefronts

[warm ore]

Okay well thank you for following along the process and for the ideas, i'll try this.

[marsh glade]

No problem, good luck!

[halcyon moss]

Payment provider?

[warm ore]

Unfortunately the app has no integration with Klarna (only Credit/Debit cards) nor does it recognise/find the webshop.

[fair gull]

youd only setup a payment method in the app

youd still have to checkout using our website but during checkout theres an option to use shoppay

which is then the payment you setup in the shop app

This is not wooting related, so sadly the process and thoughtprocess doesn't apply.

[knotty leaf]

so what exactly does that do then?

just give analog ability to the keys? sorry i took my keykaps off

[ashen spindle]

the SDK? its for developing things that interact with a wooting

[knotty leaf]

oh

[fluid granite]

you have pinged me

The universal-analog-plugin adds support for other keyboards (like Razer Huntsman) to the Wooting Analog SDK

[knotty leaf]

OH

[fluid granite]

What exactly were you trying to achieve?

[lunar elm]

i need one

[fluid granite]

I documented pretty much everything analogue input related on https://analogsense.org/

[lunar elm]

magical chicken soup via hdmi

[knotty leaf]

idk what I'm trying to do

but drunkdeer firmware pisses me off

so I'm just trudging through github looking for options

[fluid granite]

yeah, they're closed-source, so I think you'll not have much luck with it

If you want custom/open-source firmware, I guess Keychron is really your only option

[knotty leaf]

yea I was hoping you cracked it tbh

[fluid granite]

and they are usually very slow with putting the source code up on github... but at least they do eventually

[knotty leaf]

but on the list page you said you tested it with the same model that I have

[fluid granite]

Yeah, I tested that analogue input works and can be read programatically 😄

[knotty leaf]

what more do I need xD

[fluid granite]

I don't usually mess with firmware, just in the case of keychron it was definitely worth it due to the normal polling being very inefficient

[fluid granite]

Well, that depends on what you're trying to do

[knotty leaf]

no matter what I do or what settings I use my keys are all on hair triggers

at this point I want to emulate a mechanical kb lmao

it on off

actuation point, every setting I have feels like a placebo

[fluid granite]

I did make this at some point using windows keyboard hooks, but probably not the best idea for most games: https://github.com/Sainan/analogue-socd-resolution

[fluid granite]

well, it might help to visualise your input to test it, I guess 😛 https://analogsense.org/#visualize-your-analog-keyboard-input

[fair gull]

still might. a shopify vendor decides if their shop is shown in shop app or not

and if they do the process is the same as with us

[warm ore]

It's as i said, in the original message you responded to.

[knotty leaf]

hmm i see but they have a built in visualizer

[fluid granite]

Lame, but I guess that should work 😛

I do actually like Wootverlay since it does show your digital input as well, so you can tell if things like rapid trigger and socd are working

[knotty leaf]

wait

its working

My biggest problem is a key becoming reactivatable on the releae and then reactivating again from micro inputs idk

[gusty kiln]

https://youtu.be/Br88IhBqc74?si=yYL-mVk2VT6N4Hsx

Pretty cool, wished they made a3d printable version

[fluid granite]

sounds like rapid trigger? just disable that

Thanks for the slight sanity check, the translations don't really help and i've tried to infer from wooting what most of these settings do

how so? you dont need N edition in the EU. you can remove anything you want on normal windows now including edge and what not

N is specifically made to not have any media stuff

[ashen spindle]

That’s why he’s not going to install it again

[fair gull]

yeah idk what the idea was to begin with though

[reef patrol]

SO wanted it cause EU edisjun.

But honestly I am not sure why it won't install the media pack, as it's supposed to be able to just fine.
I also don't know why tf Logitech needs it for an app, but here we are. 😄

[fair gull]

but the N edition isnt EU specific what

thats why im confused

[reef patrol]

Yes it is, Tony.

Well it came into being specifically because of EU antitrust 😛

[fair gull]

yes but they are available everywhere in all regions for all regions

[reef patrol]

Doesn't matter. Still considered teh EU edisjun because of the antitrust.

Anyhow - It's shit, cause it won't install the stuff it's supposed to be able to. 😄

[brisk topaz]

Did amd fix the long boot time issues the 7600x3d and 7800x3d suffered on the new 9800x3d cpu?

[fair gull]

i mean i wouldnt be surprised if they remove N and KN editions in the future given how they handle regional compliances in normal windows editions now

[reef patrol]

Depends on what you're referring to I suppose? I still have a +1minute POST for RAM re-timing once a week.

[brisk topaz]

Why does it do that

[fair gull]

reread mansens answer

especially the end of it

[ashen spindle]

It was never a x3d issue it’s a DDR5 boot time issue

[reef patrol]

I honestly don't know why it feels the need to re-tune. 😄

[brisk topaz]

Yes but why does it re time

[fair gull]

so the ddr5 sticks dont shit the bed

[ashen spindle]

Because that’s how memory works if you don’t run it at jedec

[brisk topaz]

Does intel suffer the same issue long boot?

[reef patrol]

Do they fluctuate constantly though? One proper timing should keep working no?

[fair gull]

given the speeds the sticks are at i can imagine theres more than enough room for drift

[ashen spindle]

Just run it at jedec on x3d and it’s shorter boot time and doesn’t make a big difference anyway

[reef patrol]

[unkempt lake]

https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/ssds/new-report-blames-phisons-pre-release-firmware-for-ssd-failures-not-microsofts-august-patch-for-windows

Huh

[fair gull]

ah

so the thing people already said back when this was news

[unkempt lake]

No

different

[fair gull]

i swear i heard "its phison firmware" back then already

[ashen spindle]

Yes

[reef patrol]

I am entirely unsurprised 😄

[unkempt lake]

But we werent talking about prerelease firmwares

[fair gull]

so?

the fault is still controller firmware

[reef patrol]

The real question is what Microsoft did to make the Phison firmware crap the bed. Finally use some kind of official calls that the pre-release firmware couldn't handle? 😄

[brisk topaz]

Does intel on ddr5 suffer slow boot too

[ashen spindle]

Yes

[fair gull]

be that pre, alpha, beta, stable, eol or whatever

[ashen spindle]

Again just run it at jedec and the boot is much faster

[fair gull]

most likely smth that should be in spec but the firmware doesnt account for

[unkempt lake]

Enable memory context restore ifnyou're habing slow boot on your am5 rig

[reef patrol]

I paid for 6000Mhz and I'll get 6000Mhz damn it. Even if it means waiting 60 seconds once a week 😄

[unkempt lake]

Asus has it off by default

[fair gull]

or some firmware bug like with the early adata and kingston ssds that crapped the bed after a few GB of writes

[brisk topaz]

Will ddr6 ram hopefully fix the boot times?

[rough osprey]

memory context restore makes my pc crash

[steady sail]

no.

[brisk topaz]

I did and it made me bsod and lock up my pc so i disabled it

[fair gull]

they removed context restore from my bios after an update. sad times

now it takes 20-30seconds to boot

[unkempt lake]

Cringe

[fair gull]

i know

im sorry for the cringe

[unkempt lake]

Both am5 rigs i have are stable with mem context restore

[reef patrol]

Mine posts fast normally. But once a week it acts like I just installed new RAM, and it needs to do a long POST. Always a fun way to wake up to a black screen and ohno

[unkempt lake]

@brisk topaz was your bios updated

[ashen spindle]

Jedec supremacy

[reef patrol]

JEDEC can go suck it 😄

[brisk topaz]

3278 bios

Yes

[fair gull]

i paid for 6000mhz so i will eat all my 6000mhz

[brisk topaz]

Whos jedec and why would she wanna “suck it”

[steady sail]

i paid my 12000mhz i wanna use it

[unkempt lake]

Jedec is default speeds

[brisk topaz]

I know i was making a bad joke

[unkempt lake]

why did you update your bios

[brisk topaz]

@unkempt lake why would memory context restore cause instability and whats it do when enabled

[unkempt lake]

I only update when i build a rig or if a bios has a feature i want

[rough osprey]

new bios updates double fps

[unkempt lake]

My msi rig i last updated in like... september 2024 because that bios said to improve boot times

And it did

And i was happy so i didnt touch it again

[fair gull]

because i shit on "never change a running system" when it comes to bios

but mainly cause i was running beta bios with a fix to a vuln and wanted to move to stable

[unkempt lake]

you would have memory context restore tho

proof that dont touch it unless you have an issue is king

[brisk topaz]

Bios 3279 is the one im on @unkempt lake

[unkempt lake]

Were you using power down enabled or disabled in the bios

[brisk topaz]

Uhhhh idk

Idk what that is

[unkempt lake]

Its a setting right under memory context restore

In rhe asus bios

[brisk topaz]

I’ll have to look later

[unkempt lake]

Needs to be set to enabled

[brisk topaz]

So enable both memory context restore and power down?

[unkempt lake]

Ye

[brisk topaz]

What does it do?

[unkempt lake]

If it is not enabled you'll bsod

You need it for MCR to work

It allows your ram to power down when the system isn't on

[rough osprey]

power saving feature

[brisk topaz]

Ahhh okay. What does mcr do?

[rough osprey]

kinda weird that they connected

[brisk topaz]

So im safe and fine to enable mcr and power down?

[unkempt lake]

Yes

[rough osprey]

sure

[unkempt lake]

It's probably why you bsod

Cuz if you have power down disabled and mcr on you'll bsod right away

[rough osprey]

it can potentially add some latency

[unkempt lake]

I'd rather boot faster

[brisk topaz]

Should i disable fastboot and erp settings?

[unkempt lake]

erp is just for your usb ports

[brisk topaz]

Okay

[unkempt lake]

Do you charge shit from your usb ports when your pc is off?

XD

[brisk topaz]

Yes my mouse

[unkempt lake]

And ueah disable fast boot

[brisk topaz]

Okay

[rough osprey]

depends on the user :D

[brisk topaz]

Erp ready disabled or enabled

[reef patrol]

Sad duck noises

It was already enabled in my BIOS. So my weekly long POST is just a thing to live with 😄

[brisk topaz]

Ok i just changed everything. Gonna test now

Mcr enabled still doing ram training and long boot

[rough osprey]

Enable patience in brain settings

[unkempt lake]

First boot may rake longer

[brisk topaz]

Ah ok

[unkempt lake]

It's the follow up ones that will be quicker

[brisk topaz]

How do i test to make sure its stable this time

[unkempt lake]

you use the computer

[rough osprey]

you could also make your boot time longer by adding extra memory training

[steady sail]

just use 256gb modules

[brisk topaz]

Shutting down and seeing what boot time is now

17 seconds to windows

With mcr on

Will i run into long term issues with mcr enabled

[rough osprey]

big fire in pc

[brisk topaz]

Lol

No real issues though?

@unkempt lake

[unkempt lake]

no

[brisk topaz]

Alright sweet

I wanna disable the xfx glow on my gpu so bad lol.

Idk how though. Its just glaring xfx into my soul

[steady sail]

Put black electrical tape on it

[brisk topaz]

Its a white card

[rough osprey]

openrgb (if it works again)

[steady sail]

Than why do you care

[brisk topaz]

Because i can see it in the corner of my eye

[unkempt lake]

Put pc on floor

[brisk topaz]

It is on floor

Is there no way to do it by software or anything

[unkempt lake]

I don't think the logo is rgb or can be adjusted

[rough osprey]

google

[unkempt lake]

At least on my 7900xtx its just white and can't be turned off

[brisk topaz]

Its kinda annoying

[unkempt lake]

cut up electrical tape in the shape of the letters

So you have a black xfx logo instead of a lit up white one

[brisk topaz]

I’ll just get white electrical tape

Too much work to cut it precisely

[reef patrol]

Most GPUs have a little cable you can unplug inside of the shroud.

[unkempt lake]

Or unplug the header

[brisk topaz]

Oh?

[unkempt lake]

but mansen

i dont think he should try doing thay

[rough osprey]

you can disable it on nvidia founders edition cards 😎

[unkempt lake]

Not after what happenned to his last pc

[brisk topaz]

Dw no lysol

[unkempt lake]

https://tenor.com/view/free-gift-card-make-money-online-earn-money-online-lysol-disinfectant-spray-earn-money-gif-19943503

@reef patrol guy killed his previous pc a few days ago by cleaning the inside of it with lysol

and asked this channel for help

[brisk topaz]

Is this forever living with me

[unkempt lake]

Yes

I'm sorry but it's too funny

[brisk topaz]

Lysol says it kills 99.9% of germs. You are one big germ.

[rough osprey]

😭

[brisk topaz]

The connectors behind the shroud entirely on my card

Id need to take it off and i dont wanna

@unkempt lake my boot time from cold start to login screen now with mcr enabled

Will mcr enabled give me any ram related issues long term

[ashen spindle]

no

[stiff path]

Anyone here familiar with optane?

Just purchased this for my boot drive

[stiff path]

If anyone can tell if these are good results, would be much appreciated

[vagrant pagoda]

damn its brand new too

[stiff path]

Its used

[vagrant pagoda]

30gb writen

thats brand new XD

[stiff path]

Nothing right

[vagrant pagoda]

looks like you get a hot spare

[stiff path]

Ty sir

[vagrant pagoda]

1000 hours on with 33 powerons

only on for 40 days

[stiff path]

And for optane, thats like a drop in the bucket

[vagrant pagoda]

and 30gb

[stiff path]

Nice

[stiff path]

Thank you for the validation sir

[vagrant pagoda]

Endurance Rating (Lifetime Writes) 100 DWPD

[stiff path]

Insane right haha

[vagrant pagoda]

yes

it has a 5 year warrenty

1.6TB * 100 DWPD * 365 days * 5 years is 292,000 TB total.

so 30gb is 0.0001% of its life

[stiff path]

What a relief

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah optane has no slc cache

[stiff path]

This thing was a score, my mind is ready for no windows stuttering

[vagrant pagoda]

modern windows is ass

[stiff path]

Totally, I get win 11 enterprise edition and gpedit the sh*t out of it

[vagrant pagoda]

i have a x58 machine that still has windows 7 and its fasst fast comparted to 10/11

granted it has a pciex16 ssd for boot and a iofusion for swap

[stiff path]

How do you deal with zero day, virus, drivers etc?

[vagrant pagoda]

its not on the interent

[stiff path]

That is beyond me sir

[astral haven]

Wait is that a p5800x I see?

[stiff path]

Yes

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah

[astral haven]

Heck yea p5800x club!

[vagrant pagoda]

homie got a brand fucking new p5800

4k hours and 30gb, is this good XD

[stiff path]

Boot drive also?

[astral haven]

Yep

[stiff path]

Needed to check haha

My first foray into optane

Thanks Level 1 tech lol

[astral haven]

Also 1.6t here except I bought it for near msrp 🫠

[stiff path]

Ouch

But still must be amazing

[vagrant pagoda]

i only got a 800gb

its a 5801 or 5810 idk

[astral haven]

Yep I run p much stock win 11 and its butter

[stiff path]

What do you need for it, any programs?

Just the intel one?

[vagrant pagoda]

you dont even need that

[astral haven]

None

[stiff path]

Oh wow

I was going to get it to update the firmware

[vagrant pagoda]

i wouldnt

[stiff path]

Mine doesnt have the latest firmware

[stiff path]

How come?

[vagrant pagoda]

no reason

[astral haven]

🤷 k
I run hwinfo64 for data

[vagrant pagoda]

the p58s are rock solid

[stiff path]

I figured maybe its good for the drive

[vagrant pagoda]

they eat 1miops for breakfest

i mean youll never stress it lol

[stiff path]

Dont they do firmware updates for a reason?

[vagrant pagoda]

people are like its only 7gb/s

[stiff path]

Yeah these drives are insane

[vagrant pagoda]

like fam its 7gb/s well after your mlc has crapped the bed

[astral haven]

I ran deepseek natively off it and it wasnt fast lol, but that was the only time I ever saw something be slow

[vagrant pagoda]

like you can get a 10+GB/s 5.0 drive

but try getting 10GB while also running windows off the drive

maske sure it gets air

unlike sata 2.5 they get hot

[astral haven]

I do wish I could boot faster
From the flicker transition between the bios and being in windows its a couple seconds but initializing is painfully slow 🙁

[stiff path]

There is a program the guy from level one tech suggest

[vagrant pagoda]

you need xpoint dimms to just hold windows

[astral haven]

Actually that's not that hard since most of the time the benchmarks run against the dram of the drive

[astral haven]

If someone can get that running, link me a tutorial, I want it bad

[vagrant pagoda]

idk if ive ever seen the reposnce time go up in task manager

its just always 0

[stiff path]

Primocache?

[vagrant pagoda]

that wont boot daster

[astral haven]

I'm pretty sure I saw it hit 50 or 100ms when I had it slammed with deepseek

[vagrant pagoda]

ive never ran cpu llms

[astral haven]

Primocache is for if you don't want to boot with it but still want the speed

[stiff path]

This is for what?

[vagrant pagoda]

thats optane but as a memory module

intel had it for servers

[stiff path]

Okay, ty sir

[stiff path]

I dont need them right

[vagrant pagoda]

so instead of limited to pcie speed/latancy it was over ddr5 to the cpu

[astral haven]

You can't use them

[vagrant pagoda]

the atvantage is its slower than ram but is there after poweroff

[stiff path]

Forgive my lack of knowledge

[vagrant pagoda]

i was joking that carm could use that to boot instantly

[stiff path]

Haha okay

[vagrant pagoda]

as windows would already be in ram, via optane dimms

but they dont work on desktop

[astral haven]

Also it would 100,000% be slower

[stiff path]

Last Q for you guys

[vagrant pagoda]

you could use hibernate into optane

[stiff path]

Can I clone my current windows using acronis

Or I should do fresh install?

[astral haven]

Because any server platform post time is gonna be longer than it takes for to get in to windows

[vagrant pagoda]

you can

[stiff path]

Yesssss

[astral haven]

But fresh install is always better

That being said my windows install is a decade old

[vagrant pagoda]

im the same way

i know keeping the same windows is ass

[stiff path]

I know but Its setup perfectly sans the drive

[vagrant pagoda]

but im lazy

[stiff path]

My family member still runs win 7 and browses the net

looool

[astral haven]

Primocache is nice tho, you could try it out first before swapping entirely to the optane

[stiff path]

Id rather leave stock

As long as p5800x is running smooth, im good

[vagrant pagoda]

idk if its worth if you ahve 1.6tb of optane

[astral haven]

Primocache was part of my experimental phase before I went optane and its damn fast since the most used stuff goes in ram

[vagrant pagoda]

you coulduse use linux

and it would be ram cahce anyway XD

[astral haven]

😬

That would be if Linux worked well which it doesnf

[stiff path]

Whats weird is the p5800x still blows out gen 5 drives

[astral haven]

What's weird about that?

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah mlc will always be like that

[stiff path]

Its older tech

[astral haven]

No its newer tech

[vagrant pagoda]

they ahve just got faster SLC caches

[stiff path]

I feel likes its a literal ‘back to the future’ moment

Haha

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah a 5.0 drive is just 2010 tech

[astral haven]

Dram really

[vagrant pagoda]

nothing is new

nah they get full speed to the slc

[stiff path]

I just was never initiated into optane before

[astral haven]

For sequentials not randoms

[stiff path]

But when I got this chance, I said lets f*ing go haha

[astral haven]

It was damn expensive

[vagrant pagoda]

yeah

[astral haven]

I bought a 3090 during peak mining and the most expensive component in my PC was optane still

[stiff path]

Oh wow

I saw the original prices… jeebus

[vagrant pagoda]

thing is even modern ssds are just more actual flash channels

the flash is barely faster

[stiff path]

How are you guys connecting yours

Riser cards pcie?

[astral haven]

I didn't pay MSRP at least but :/

[vagrant pagoda]

u.2

[astral haven]

M. 2 to u. 2, u. 2 cable

[stiff path]

I got both m.2 and 3 pcie variants of riser card

I have 2 spare gen 4 pcie slots below my 4090

[vagrant pagoda]

i just got a x4-u2 card thing

[stiff path]

Although one is blocked

The m.2 is a bit janky

And I was worried about induced latency

Maybe none?

[vagrant pagoda]

the x4 card just seemd the least jank

nah there isnt any

[stiff path]

Yep

[stiff path]

Okay awesome

[astral haven]

The blocked one would probably be stealing from your GPU so it's fine that it's blocked.
But you do want to be running from the CPU directly, not from the chipset.

[stiff path]

And it will run same speed as if from chipset m.2 as to pcie slot?

[astral haven]

Not exactly

[stiff path]

O rly?

Damn

I did get one m2 to u2

[vagrant pagoda]

i mean no gpus needs x16

unless homes is running pcie 1.1

mine is in doing x8 gpu

[astral haven]

No GPU needs it, but every GPU loses performance from x8 even if its marginal

[vagrant pagoda]

as one day i hope to get a second

[vagrant pagoda]

gn had nothing on 5090

[stiff path]

Im waiting for 6000 series

5000 is an insult

[astral haven]

gn testing is a lie

[vagrant pagoda]

how so?

[astral haven]

he intentionally cuts games that perform worse

so the games that are more important that you know numbers for get axed

[vagrant pagoda]

tpu got less than 1%

[stiff path]

Thanks again guys

[astral haven]

https://tpucdn.com/review/nvidia-geforce-rtx-5090-pci-express-scaling/images/minimum-fps-3840-2160.png
he got 1% every way you look at it

[vagrant pagoda]

they said less than 1% average

[stiff path]

Would you get a 5000 series or wait for the 6000

[vagrant pagoda]

but still

[astral haven]

i chose not to get 5000 series but im not even sure ill get 6000

[vagrant pagoda]

1% from games to run optane

[astral haven]

im still on my 3090

[astral haven]

just put it in the correct slot its that easy, relegate the consumer tier drives to the chipset

[vagrant pagoda]

i couldnt get to a cpu m.2

[astral haven]

i guess it matters less for you peeps who arent on x570 with their awful chipset bugs

[vagrant pagoda]

never had an issue other than the 2.5g

[astral haven]

you never had usb crash?

[vagrant pagoda]

never

only usb issue i ahve is sometimes my wooting wont wake from sleep, but my mouse will

[astral haven]

Wild
Amd themselves said it wasnt fixable

Guess you got lucky

[vagrant pagoda]

i even use my usb nvme drive too

[lunar elm]

If ur on a GPU thats still working fine for your needs then wait for 6000- 5000 is still technically only one gen from 3000 since both 4 and 5k uses same node

[astral haven]

yes but thats not really how that works

if you have 4k120, and want to acheive that maxed out in games, you have 1 option of gpu (technically no gpu can do it but 5090 gets real close these days)
and theres a whole host of extra features that 50 series ads if you need em
but the question is do you need them

[lunar elm]

i mean as in an “upgrade”

same process node but with slightly more features

[astral haven]

again not how that works
20-25% extra performance is 20-25% extra performance
its not the same generation

[lunar elm]

no shit sherlock

[astral haven]

then what did you mean here?

[lunar elm]

4k and 5k are the same process node, unless you REALLY want to jump to 5k, I wouldnt recommend it, as its just a 4k+ imho

Yes the 5090 does indeed span 25% better everywhere dont get me wrong- but a newer process node wouldve been nice- which is what 6k/rubin is going to be

[astral haven]

yea and thats completely wrong, ada is not blackwell

[brisk topaz]

We have something in common

🙂

[lunar elm]

nvidia still wins AMD in featureset and other workloads- Both cards have different purposes

[brisk topaz]

Yea but i just game

[lunar elm]

Then AMD has the better general value proposition for you.

[brisk topaz]

Yep

Can you explain why amd is better for gaming than nvidia so i can explain to my brother why he should stop buying nvidia for his gaming only pc? Lol

[lunar elm]

There was someone in another dc dissing nvidia for no reason at all- Saying “Whatever nvidia offers AMD has it lower” then someone said “Any work utilizing Cuda” with another saying “9070XT prices being absolute ass, only about $30/$50 apart from the 5070ti”

Unless you enjoy the features like RTX HDR and RTX VSR (video upscaling) and appreciate MFG as bruteforcing- go ahead

[brisk topaz]

My reasons for disliking nvidia: had constant driver crashes when i tried them. Had zero crashing with amd. I just game. Amd just works.

[lunar elm]

Ive had issues on both (Early 50 series drivers) and 9070XT

My 4070 super had 0 issues

(pre 50 series)

[brisk topaz]

Yea it varies

[vapid ruin]

for nvidia, you pay not only to be able to game but also for cuda/nvenc, the latter is really good if you want your own AI waifu at home. For AMD, you're paying for the potential to able to do the latter but it's mostly gaming.

[brisk topaz]

Idc about ai or “waifu” wtf is even that

That sounds weird

earlier today i called in an auto cannon sentry and three of my squad mates stood in front of it while bugs were behind them. Lets just say they didnt make it home

[raw zephyr]

nvcleanstall is also a nice project

[lunar elm]

I had a friend completely new- I dropped a 500kg bomb and said run, he ran towards it and he got knockbacked, with his eagle bomb in hand heading straight for me

idek why he ran towards the bomb -_-

[brisk topaz]

I legitimately posted on nvidia’s forum how the drivers suck and i keep crashing and i want help so my pc will just work for games. Instead of help the “nvidia manny” guy just bans me from the forums and deletes my account and wipes the entire post from ever existing. I heard about that happening with nvidia and didnt believe it until it happened to me. Was kinda why i went amd

I dont support companies that are like hey we dont like that you outright said product isnt working right so we are gonna ban instead of help

[halcyon moss]

i dont support companies

[lunar elm]

dont support companies at all

[brisk topaz]

So dont support wooting?

[halcyon moss]

unless they pay me? no :p

[lunar elm]

I dont support wooting- I root for them

(said the 80he haver)

[marsh glade]

Don't support Wooting for the sake of it. If we ever get as fat, bloated, anticonsumer, and hateful as Nvidia, then we've failed

[stiff path]

Go wooting

[stiff path]

Id agree if you guys lose the personal touch

[brisk topaz]

Based answer

[stiff path]

Wooting has a special place in my heart as it introduced me to the custom scene

[brisk topaz]

I like wooting just for its solid keyboard

The employees are just ok tbh

[digital cliff]

doesn't matter if people buy your products

[vapid ruin]

Just dont be publically and privately traded

[umbral heron]

I sincerely hope that whoever created MS Intune will have soggy socks and always sleep on warm side of pillow

[brisk topaz]

I say the same about windows vista 10 and 11

I miss xp and 7

[spark hedge]

Hello everyone, I need some help. I just received my Wooting 60HE that I ordered from Maxesport, and when I launch the software, it doesn’t recognize my keyboard. Can someone help ?

[reef patrol]

Are you using the app or a browser?

[spark hedge]

the app

[reef patrol]

Can you type on the keyboard at all?

[spark hedge]

yes i can

[dull hollow]

amd or intel and what gen?

[viral hatch]

I’m using vpn

[viral hatch]

Amd 9800x:d

9800x3d*

@plush stirrup I see you

[plush stirrup]

For some reason my ISP limits speed twice, once by DLM, so whatever my dsl line is capable of and somewhere else, it likes to get stuck on the limit somewhere else 🤣

[plush stirrup]

I'd just suggest you turn the vpn you use off :3

[viral hatch]

Bro I am not that nerdy

[viral hatch]

Lemme try

[dull hollow]

uhhh how much is the Asus ROG STRIX B850-A GAMING WIFI for you?

[viral hatch]

Idk lemme check

It’s 320

[dull hollow]

asrocks x870 is a little cheaper, im not sure if they fixed the failure yet

[viral hatch]

I don’t think they have

[dull hollow]

whats that in usd?

[warm ore]

Yeah try Tachyon Ice, it looks great (not just visually)

[viral hatch]

Like 445

[rough patrol]

Is that why you spammed me with discord server invites yesterday

[viral hatch]

Ye

320 I’m boutta to be broke

[viral hatch]

Bro that’s 500 and 700

I’m cooked

[warm ore]

Yeah it's 500

[dull hollow]

ok just making sure
the strix b850-a has wifi 7

[viral hatch]

Yes I believe

[warm ore]

500 EUR, it's more expensive on that page wherever you are checking.
Not even by a little.

[warm ore]

Either way you won't get away with it cheap if you want white, and if you go for the cheapest, you will probably give up something else important. So gl

[viral hatch]

Is this decent? Cuz I don’t wanna drop more than 250 respectively

[viral hatch]

Alr ty

[warm ore]

Why i said before, if you buy big man CPU/GPU, always keep in mind to scale mobo accordingly, you can't just blow all money on those two parts and buy the cheapest mobo.

[ashen spindle]

Yeah you can

[dull hollow]

probably, it has wifi6e

which was your main point of a white motherboard

[warm ore]

Not advised, if you wanna avoid issues.

[viral hatch]

Yes

[ashen spindle]

What issues??

[viral hatch]

Yeah but 250 is enough chill man

[warm ore]

It's up to you

[ashen spindle]

Bruh you can’t just go around and say stuff like “avoid issues” and not elaborate what those mystical issues would be

[warm ore]

I would elaborate for him, if he has a few hours to listen, i don't think you need it quin, and clearly you don't seem to understand or know about them. Or maybe your experience so far dictates that there was absolutely no issue with getting cheapest boards for some upper range hardware before. The problem is the big wish wash with experiences/inexperiences and being uninformed.

[ashen spindle]

You can’t even write a single example in a short sentence

[warm ore]

I can't write anything that would satisfy you, simply put.

[ashen spindle]

Just say one thing as an example

[viral hatch]

It’s not the cheapest tho it’s 300 and that’s way more than enough bro I ain’t spending 700 pound on a mobo

[dull hollow]

i have the black ver of this motherboard (and 9800x3d) and its been working fine
cousin has this exact one with his 9800x3d
the most i can see you having to do is updating the bios if needed depending on when it was boxed
pcie 5 isnt really needed right now

[warm ore]

Nobody asks you to, if that's your limit, it should be respected.

[viral hatch]

Exactly so why are you pushing it

[warm ore]

I wasn't, i just told you to prepare if you have expectations then theres a price, white for example is often more pricey.

[viral hatch]

Thank you and it’s even better that we have the exact same build hopefully my steel legend will be good

[viral hatch]

Yeah but it’s not the cheapest tho and from other people I heard it’s gonna be fine

[warm ore]

Try it out, it might be perfect for you.

[mental helm]

looks fine, idk what the arguing is for

[steady sail]

[ashen spindle]

Still wondering what potential issue could come from using a cheap board with that cpu guess we’ll never know

[dull hollow]

https://tenor.com/view/lizard-lizard-lizard-gif-16151436670066332523

[unkempt lake]

As long as the vrms are fine... you're good

There's cheap boards with good vrms out there

[warm ore]

Absolutely correct

(well, regarding the CPU itself only that is)

[unkempt lake]

And even then it should only matter if you plan on slapping a higher power chip on the future

[ashen spindle]

there isn’t even a single B series board that has inadequate VRMs for a 9950 in the HUB testing so you need to try and find one if that’s a concern

[unkempt lake]

I feel like most people won't slap a ryzen 9 in their rig

[unkempt lake]

Asus prime series

Is the only one i can think of

[ashen spindle]

Think even those were fine just not amazing? Would have check the video again

[warm ore]

In general i would say to get the step beefier VRM, or the board with better VRM components/more of them on the xx80/xx90 CPUs, rather than getting the low end boards that potentially have this cheaped out on.
Hence why i referred to looking into if BZ still does deep component analysis or not, i simply don't have the time to do this for every person.
