get a adapter bracket and get 4 fans 1/4 the size so you put 24 fans in lul

fair gull
#

just no

#

then id put in 1u server fans

  • standing for a certain browser name
ashen spindle
old marlin
#

uhhhh

#

what?

fair gull
#

gaming browser of everyones choice

old marlin
#

ah

#

with razer chroma integration dafoe

fair gull
#

yes

old marlin
#

nobody is buying them

thick elk
#

At least there is some hope for humanity

fair gull
#

well back into the box it goes

#

office finished activating

old marlin
#

gamer browser and office

#

gamer office when

#

I mean

#

can I complain

#

I have an alienware laptop from work

fair gull
#

well the office was an after thought cause now that the customers.son has this pc he can also do his homework there instead of dads pc

crisp granite
#

nah

#

download as pdf

#

then open in google docs

#

yeah

cursive summit
#

Can't wait

#

Also AMD next gen CPU's are confirmed to be 5000 series

#

Good riddance, I like the shift in naming

ashen spindle
#

28th

cursive summit
#

According to some people

#

The presentation is only 25 mins

#

Correlates with the previous rumour it's only gonna be half an hour

#

Not bad, Nvidia's presentation was also somewhere near 30 min mark iirc

halcyon moss
#

how much can you tell about it

crisp granite
#

AMD announcement

#

regarding Zen 3

cursive summit
#

@halcyon moss What?

#

The Zen 3 launch?

#

They'll launch 5800 and 5900 towards end of October, and the rest (5600/5700?) later on, in November iirc

#

Should be really powerful

crisp granite
#

wow

#

I bought an EOL cpu a few weeks ago

#

dang it

cursive summit
#

You did that to yourself

#

Why'd you buy something ahead of a next-gen launch?

#

Always wait for the launch, prices fall

crisp granite
#

ok

#

actually

#

it's still in the box

#

might be able to return it

cursive summit
#

What CPU?

#

4790?

#

Zen+?

#

6th - 7th gen i7?

crisp granite
#

zen 2

#

r5 3600XT

#

paid $330 CAD for it

cursive summit
#

That'd be what in USD?

crisp granite
#

$250-ish?

cursive summit
#

For a 3600XT?

#

Sounds about right

#

And it's definitely not EoL

#

A very capable CPU

#

Would you want to return it to save a dollar or two or get a new gen CPU? Sure

#

If you can

ashen spindle
#

no point to speculate now, we dont know prices/when a similar priced one is availible etc.

#

wait for the show in 2 hours and see if you think giving it back and waiting is worth it or not

crisp granite
#

I'm worried about bottlenecking, I'm gonna use an rtx 3070 at 1080p and want to get 100% load on the gpu

cursive summit
#

It's not gonna bottleneck lul

#

It's a fresh 6/12 CPU, of course it wont

crisp granite
#

yup

#

but I want great 1080p 144hz with rtx and all the fancy stuff for years to come

#

so it's not too crazy

reef patrol
#

The problem is indeed the CPU at 1080.

#

3080 is bottlenecked even by the high end Intels.

ashen spindle
#

not with RTX featues gloryKeK

reef patrol
#

Hehe

ashen spindle
#

and if you are really cpu bound you can also do super sampling etc. so it switches to gpu bound, if you want to be gpu bound you can be

crisp granite
#

ah

#

ok

#

makes sense

zenith sonnet
#

My wallet is ready

#

Hope AMD is, too

misty pier
#

I'm not going to pay for the day 1 pricing like I did for my 3700x monkaHmm

zenith sonnet
#

If the 5000 series is only 10% faster, it's a meh

#

For sure

#

I'll most likely wait a few weeks

#

Unless I can get a preorder in before prices rise

misty pier
#

they usually don't throw down any offers with day 1 launches, just the cpu itself

#

like free games or something

zenith sonnet
#

We'll see

misty pier
#

yeah, hopefully this is something good

#

5000s got apus with 8 cores right?

#

i don't remember if it was for something else or 5000

zenith sonnet
#

No APUs yet

#

APUs are 4000 series

#

Expect to use those for another 6-12 months

misty pier
#

gotcha

shadow minnow
#

Anyone here can help me with table top choosing?

#

@digital cliff check channel where I tagged you 👀 lul

#

But I would prefer to have like 160.80cm, not sure if I will find anything good for that dimensions though, did not find yet

#

yes that would be good
@digital cliff thickness however is not mentioned on that site so not sure if it is 4cm

#

@digital cliff Is that okay?

#

Okay, sorry lul

#

Probably going to order it. I hope it will be wide enough

#

About the legs, these look like from some metal material, and have 60-90cm adjustable height which is nice

#

if you like beech, I’m sure it’ll be fine
What?

#

Why?

#

What material do you like?

#

what country are you located in again
@digital cliff Slovakia, but sent links to English site so people understand 😄

#

I may want to paint it, not sure yet

#

Or if I just found any table top from wood in my country which is 160.80cm I would rather go for that but I did not find one

#

The thing is that these are lot bigger dimensions which makes them more expensive

#

I am checking that, most do not.

#

I know Slovak language and still found just one site offering cutting service lul

#

Also, which type of wood is best?

#

Like oak...

#

And if I am painting?

#

I am blind, nevermind lul

#

Yes

#

I thought you are saying sth else, and did not realize

cursive summit
#

Starting very soon

crimson wigeon
#

Excellent can't wait for ridiculous product names so they talk more about "the competition"

cursive summit
#

1:20 from right now

Audio quality LUL

pale sigil
#

xD

crimson wigeon
#

Kinda digging this scuffed audio

ashen spindle
#

audio seems fine on the youtube stream

crimson wigeon
#

Yes but it's also like half a minute behind

ashen spindle
#

so for twitch stream they are using the wrong audi channel smh

crimson wigeon
#

Also I depend on the cancer chat

ashen spindle
#

ehh im enough on twitch so I disable it for big streams lmao

pale sigil
#

Single thread WOW

crimson wigeon
#

Best single thread performance? pepesweat

misty pier
#

what

#

🤔

ashen spindle
#

cmon mark we know all that already

#

I need the jucy new details

pale sigil
#

xD

misty pier
#

thhis is boring

crimson wigeon
#

Ah yes more prediction with twice the vulnerabilities

misty pier
#

ZERO BUBBLE

pale sigil
#

per what WOW

#

Zen 4

thick elk
#

Yay performance per watt, it's such an easy stat to inflate

ashen spindle
#

not for intel gloryKeK

misty pier
#

ok maybe 5000 is a pass for me

thick elk
#

They can, just clock the core half as fast and performance per watt goes up quite a bit

ashen spindle
#

why a pass, whats your current one?

thick elk
#

but yea copy pasting the same architecture you can't get a lot improvement on intel's side

pale sigil
#

4.8ghz on 5900x Thonk

thick elk
#

*5900x

misty pier
thick elk
#

shadow of the tombraider, already favors amd

pale sigil
#

ye

#

annoyed

misty pier
#

bias benchmarks

ashen spindle
#

.. yes this is marketing, not a review

#

what did you expect

misty pier
#

ok well that's all I came to see then

pale sigil
#

1080p

#

xD

#

omfg

ashen spindle
#

yes its a cpu not a gpu

pale sigil
#

it just cracked me up

#

haha

#

thats all

shadow minnow
#

Ouch that audio is terrible (AMD presentation)

spiral belfry
#

Out of my cave I come (and very off-topic to what you guys are talking about), anyone here used the Magento API (via Oauth) before? 😂

pale sigil
#

Single thread aPES_Love

true quest
#

it's fine

misty pier
#

muh single threads are supa fast

thick elk
#

well that was a weakpoint so it is meaningful

ashen spindle
#

might want to ask in 15 minutes again cop lul

#

(I didn"t btw)

spiral belfry
#

I might have to XD all the amd talk is happening

crimson wigeon
#

-3% INTEL WON lul

misty pier
#

1080p is funny

ashen spindle
#

want to have 4k benches where it changes 0%?

true quest
#

im certain 1080 remains the most prevalent resolution

shadow minnow
#

I want to see 4k

ashen spindle
#

sad we dont get 5ghz memes at least

reef tundra
#

5ghz is a meme in inself

pale sigil
misty pier
#

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh what

#

WHY IS IT SO EXPENSIVE

reef tundra
#

Seems fine

pale sigil
#

cos it actually competes

#

now

#

xD

thick elk
#

That's no competiton for you

#

they just bumped it up a bit

misty pier
thick elk
#

Intel at this point can only compete on price

ashen spindle
#

intel needs to reduce prices to be the budget option, otherwise the budget opiton is price reduced zen2 cpus lul

misty saffron
#

so intel is fucked

#

nice

reef tundra
#

Intel is fucked by manegement

fair gull
#

@spiral belfry the fuck is magento

reef tundra
#

From x-men

fair gull
#

the cousin of magenta?

thick elk
#

Thing about intel is, they don't care as much on the desktop anymore.
Especially not on diy.

spiral belfry
#

@spiral belfry the fuck is magento
@fair gull Google ❤️

fair gull
#

isnt intel more about server and business now?

thick elk
#

server laptop and enterprise

reef tundra
#

The engineers care but shareholders and executives dont want to take risks

ashen spindle
#

intel cares about LAptop and OEM, but if DiY does well, it goes over into OEM

fair gull
#

@spiral belfry ah php thats why i havent heard of it

ashen spindle
#

YES A REFERENCE CARD WITHOUT BLOWER STYLE COOLER

#

YES FUCKING FINALLY

pale sigil
#

hypeeeeeeeeeee

thick elk
#

They already confirmed that officially.

ashen spindle
#

yes but I wanted to see it

#

it was too good to be true lul

pale sigil
misty pier
#

shroud looks nice

misty saffron
#

how much is 5950x

#

got distracted

misty pier
#

why is twitch ahead

ashen spindle
#

750 or 799 not sure

crimson wigeon
#

Not 8K lul

ashen spindle
#

but it was 7xx

pale sigil
#

if thats the lower end one

#

id be blown away

misty saffron
#

how many cpu generations on am4 now

ashen spindle
#

zen, zen+, zen2, zen3

fickle ore
#

450$ for 5800x shiiet and no 5700x

misty saffron
#

weren't there some fx cpus on am4?

fickle ore
#

oh well

ashen spindle
#

I guess those APUs ye

#

athlons and such

spiral belfry
#

@spiral belfry ah php thats why i havent heard of it
@fair gull Yeah, I was hoping someone would have used it in here and could help me with it XD

fair gull
#

should the question be about how many cpus on a given chipset and not socket?

pale sigil
#

i hope there is a 5700x

cursive summit
#

Well it didn't look that good

#

CPUs perform on par with Intel finally, but are priced also badly

#

299$ for cheapest SKU

ashen spindle
#

yeah, zen2 is not EOL so below that you can get a price reduced zen2 cpu

cursive summit
#

RX 6000 seems to do great though from what they showed

misty saffron
#

should the question be about how many cpus on a given chipset and not socket?
@fair gull that works too

#

welp there goes my 3950x then

#

fucking amd

fickle ore
#

well given that you can beat intel by handily now with 450$ its quite cheap

fair gull
#

iirc am4 has multiple chipsets and some dont support all cpus

misty saffron
#

wasn't it up to the manufacturer

ashen spindle
#

the chipsets would, just the bios/agesa versions not

cursive summit
#

The Radeon card they showed off is performing relatively similarly to RTX 3080

fair gull
#

ya so its an amd decision

cursive summit
#

Tie on Gears 5, loses out on 9 FPS on Borderlands

misty saffron
#

how much is the card though

cursive summit
#

So we have an inbetweener between RTX 3070 - 3080

fair gull
#

with raytracing or without

cursive summit
#

No clue, they showed a "sneak peak"

fair gull
#

altho even more important

#

whats the tensor perf

misty saffron
#

hopefully cheaper than 3080

cursive summit
#

Will most definitely be cheaper

shadow minnow
#

Good products but horrible presentation. The audio...

misty saffron
#

i wonder if they came up with their own dlss competitor though

ashen spindle
#

audio was fine on youtube where most people watched

misty saffron
#

because that's one way for them to become competitive

fair gull
#

@shadow minnow prob audio from a new ryzen cpu :kappa:

ashen spindle
#

I assume they will, probably using DirectML api in windows

shadow minnow
#

Even on YouTube, one of presenters had no basses in voice just heights

misty saffron
#

hopefully they will

#

because otherwise nvidia is still better

ashen spindle
#

best summary: " To put it another way, in just over a year, AMD’s IPC gains beat out Intel’s 2015-2020 IPC advances. They are giddy for a reason."

fickle ore
#

prolly beating Intel 2011-2020

misty pier
#

audio didn't sound bad on my end

cursive summit
#

Yeah I don't see Ryzen 5000 doing very well

#

The price is steep

ashen spindle
#

??? its the same pricing as intel

#

while beating intel

misty pier
#

tables have flipped kekw

crimson wigeon
#

better put them back then ┬─┬ ノ( ゜-゜ノ)

cursive summit
#

We'll see how the 5600X and 5800X perform compared to 10700k

#

They didn't share a single slide on their perf

#

Which is suspicious

misty saffron
#

well now we all can justifiably call intel shit

cursive summit
#

Wait for Rocket Lake-S™️

ashen spindle
#

yes wait 6 months gloryKeK

cursive summit
#

Rocket Lake will defo kill AMD in performance

#

But AMD is releasing Zen 4 in 2021 too

misty pier
#

now the 6-cores cost nearly as much as my 3700x at msrp

cursive summit
#

It's literally a flip of performance leadership every 6 months

ashen spindle
#

this just in, if you only wait 6 months, you might get something better

crisp granite
#

yeah

ashen spindle
#

yeah except after rocket lake, which is a) still on 14nm and b) maxes out at 8 cores, comes alder lake with the shitty big.Little configuration

cursive summit
#

Well it looks like if you have a Zen processor, you shouldn't upgrade until Zen 4 at least

ashen spindle
#

that will be a fuckfest

crisp granite
#

I'm gonna skip this

#

stick with my 3600XT

fickle ore
#

5800X prob beats 5900x in some games

#

dont need to see slides

misty pier
#

yeah I doubt the jump is big from 3000 to 5000

cursive summit
#

We'll see how the 5800X does with SMT off

ashen spindle
#

depends on how well memory scales etc

misty pier
#

the gpus on the other hand.. quite interested in seeing more

ashen spindle
#

if you can scale it much higher you could gain quite a bit more

#

after all we didnt see anything on IF changes

cursive summit
#

If you have leadership, you always try to squeeze out cash from your buyers

#

Look at new CPUs

#

Meanwhile Nvidia is fucking AMD left right and center

#

So expect cheap cards with good perf

fickle ore
#

@misty pier you just saw 46%-50% increase in cpu bound games for a few games from 3900x vs 5900x 😛

#

and its not big?

#

kek

cursive summit
#

Comparatively cheap, 650$ for top GPU or so

#

The best rumour is, the best Radeon card they have is actually under top secret protection

crisp granite
#

haha

cursive summit
#

No one knows anything about it

#

RTX 3090 might have a competitor, who knows

ashen spindle
#

ah I see, you are trusting videocardz on their shitty rumours lmao

crisp granite
#

BIG NAVI has 20898709890708 stream processors

cursive summit
#

Videocardz is relatively reputable

crisp granite
#

great for 720p 60hz gaming

misty pier
#

dunno, can't believe what I see until the real benchs come around

cursive summit
#

They are apparently shipping already

#

So we might see benches soon

crisp granite
#

noice

cursive summit
#

Typically they come a week prior to release?

#

So roughly at the same time of AMD's GPU presentation

ashen spindle
#

what, no not even nvidia keeps it that close

#

you mix it up with when they got a full driver perhaps

shadow minnow
cursive summit
#

I want to see something like SmartShift for Zen 3

#

RX - Ryzen in tandem beating shit out of everything

ashen spindle
#

you want adjustable power usage in a pc

#

wat

#

just run both at max done

pale sigil
#

I'm sold

#

Tbh

#

Team red for me

cursive summit
#

So 5600X is the "X" SKU

pale sigil
#

Well, I was going anyway ;)

#

Refuse to go Intel xD

cursive summit
#

I want to know the 5600 non-X pricing

#

249?

ashen spindle
#

also, I think they mentioned intel a total of 0 times

cursive summit
#

That's not half that bad

ashen spindle
#

intel should learn from that about their presentations lul

cursive summit
#

They only mentioned "i9-10900K" once

pale sigil
#

They had Intel displayed once

#

Ye

cursive summit
#

And yes I counted

#

And I believe "competition" came up 2 times

ashen spindle
#

definitely the best AMD presentation I've ever seen

cursive summit
#

They were too busy stroking their ego to talk about Intel

#

Intro was just "Yes, we are good"

ashen spindle
#

too bad a 10 core doesnt make sense with the chiplet design

#

a 1v1 beatdown of the 10900k would be fun

pale sigil
#

Moar

#

Do we know when nda is down

ashen spindle
#

probably at launch or slightly before

crimson wigeon
#

But where the Threadripper at and is 128 cores a possibility

ashen spindle
#

no

cursive summit
#

128 cores?

ashen spindle
#

well

cursive summit
#

Not likely

ashen spindle
#

maybe if they open 2socket option for threadripper

#

but not likely

cursive summit
#

We might get 192 threads though thonk

#

Very unlikely

#

But there have been weird 3-way SMT rumours

ashen spindle
#

nah no smt3/smt4 for zen3 also not on servers

pale sigil
#

Im going to try and pre order but I'm gonna have to use the amd flash kit thing

#

As I don't have other ryzen cpus

ashen spindle
#

why flash kit what

crimson wigeon
#

Gotta upgrade the UEFI AGESA whatever so it supports the new CPU

ashen spindle
#

what are you trying to do because whatever it is you are doing it wrong I bet

pale sigil
#

Amd offer a cpu in the post to allow upgrading your motherboard

ashen spindle
#

no no not that

pale sigil
#

Because as you know you nerd a previous ryzen cpu

ashen spindle
#

what is your plan to do, used hardware?

#

new hardware?

pale sigil
#

X570 with a 5600/800x

cursive summit
#

That is quite nasty

ashen spindle
#

so you are buying a new board

cursive summit
#

The paintjob is nutty

ashen spindle
#

you are buying a brand new board yes?

cursive summit
#

HOLY

#

MOTHER

#

OF I/O

#

Yeah I am looking for a new board

ashen spindle
#

no not you

cursive summit
#

But this thing is 229$ at least

crimson wigeon
#

get rid of that weird stuff at the top and add MORE USB

ashen spindle
#

I'm trying to stop callum from whatever he's doing bc he's doing the wrong thing

cursive summit
#

13 USB 3s and 1 USB-C

#

That is insane

crimson wigeon
#

Yeah wouldn't they prefer if you beg whatever place you're buying the board from to upgrade it for you or something like that

pale sigil
#

Yes a new board but I'm saying in case

#

Ye they should has the firmware on

#

I know

#

But in case I might have to get the kitn

#

It's why I'm avoiding the mobo as long as possible

crimson wigeon
#

Or buy the refreshed variant lul

ashen spindle
#

they are literally advertising refreshes with compatible bios

fickle ore
pale sigil
#

They are?

ashen spindle
#

or, you get one where you can flash it without needing a cpu

#

yes

pale sigil
#

Same price?

ashen spindle
#

idfk its a month out

#

I'll check in a second dag

pale sigil
#

Wait I know they refresh the x570s but not yet

#

I ain't getting a x670

ashen spindle
#

there is no x670 rooREE

pale sigil
#

Usually cost more

crimson wigeon
#

Perhaps that BFV thing is a meme like there's a ~fancy Intel exclusive fast path~

pale sigil
#

There will be with the new cpus

#

AFAIK

ashen spindle
#

no

pale sigil
#

Or w.e

cursive summit
#

What were these weird ass rumours about X670 too?

misty saffron
#

It's literally a flip of performance leadership every 6 months
@cursive summit except amd is growing performance much faster

pale sigil
#

I just assumed

#

Tbh

misty saffron
#

if that trend continues

ashen spindle
#

you can literally use a b450 one right now and flash it if it was q-flash or what they call it, without having a cpu installed

#

so just get a board that does that if you are so paranoid

cursive summit
#

That trend will most likely continue

#

Rocket Lake might be underwhelming

pale sigil
#

True

ashen spindle
#

you 100% will not need a upgrade kit

cursive summit
#

Alder Lake is a weird ass design

#

I need benches to see how it performs

ashen spindle
#

ok now i've stopped you from doing stupid shit I can take a look at what I got pinged for

fickle ore
#

yeah damn right

plush summit
#

intel is dead

fair gull
#

no?

cursive summit
#

The process is underway, and we have already begun providing our motherboard partners with the software code to add Ryzen 5000 Series support for 400 Series motherboard BIOSes.

You can expect the first beta releases of these BIOSes to be available for download starting in January 2021. The BIOSes will be made available directly from your preferred motherboard vendor when they are ready – exact timing and availability will depend on the development, implementation, and test schedule for your specific motherboard vendor and model.

#

Only in 2021?

#

Bruh

ashen spindle
#

for 400 series

#

you know, the ones that were supposed to not support it at all

fickle ore
#

haha 2nd class citizens

ashen spindle
#

so instead of not at all you get it 1 1/2 months later

urban lynx
#

i own a motherboard with x570 chipset... am i good for now? GWvickyKannaPeek

ashen spindle
#

yes

cursive summit
#

Sad noises

#

So effectively, buying B550 and X570 is useless from January onwards since Zen 4 drops AM4 altogether

fickle ore
#

No..

cursive summit
#

Sure seems so

ashen spindle
#

as for BFV @fickle ore I'm not sure, I cant find if most benchmarks for the game are done in dx11 or 12 so maybe that places a role

cursive summit
#

B450 will be a lot cheaper than B550

fickle ore
#

@ashen spindle Oh yeah shit right, you can switch between dx11/12 in bfv

urban lynx
#

so amd will move on from the am.4 socket?

cursive summit
#

Starting next year yes

#

Which is why I see no point in going B550

#

Get a good B450 board, something like Ryzen 7 5800X, and sit out the next AM5 cycle

ashen spindle
#

because maybe you need pcie4, or can only get a 550 board in your region for a decent price etc.

fickle ore
#

@ashen spindle BFV is pretty well threaded so my guess is, even looking at that zen 3 vs zen 2 only 5% diff so prob gpu bound or memory bound --- 5800X might've shown bigger difference with 1 CCX

cursive summit
#

Certain B450s have support for full PCIE 4

ashen spindle
#

could also be something driver related, maybe they tested it with big navi and that had some issues there or so

urban lynx
#

i think i'm being good for a bit with my 3900x until the am.5 stuff is a bit more established at least i hope. lol

fickle ore
#

true true

ashen spindle
#

support yes, its not enabled on any of them

cursive summit
#

I really see no reason right now to even upgrade the motherboard

#

Just wait for Zen 4 pepesweat

ashen spindle
#

its disabled and you cant use pcie 4 on b450

fickle ore
#

ofc there is no reason to upgrade but Im not gonna buy a b450 when I can get b550

crisp granite
#

now

fickle ore
#

and save a measly 20-30$

crisp granite
#

it's been out for a few months

ashen spindle
#

i think i'm being good for a bit with my 3900x until the am.5 stuff is a bit more established at least i hope. lol
@urban lynx yes, so whenever you need an upgrade in the future you can potentiall stay with your board and get enough of a boost, or change both in like 2+ years, depending on what you need at that time

cursive summit
#

The fact they are dropping AM4 is sad, but understandable

ashen spindle
#

anyway I'm making lunch and will get some intel tears as a drink with it

cursive summit
#

Dunno I see a big waste in investing into B550 when you can just get some shit like A520

#

And just wait for Zen 4

fickle ore
#

investing lol

#

kekw

ashen spindle
#

because sometimes you need specific ports, want vrm cooler etc.

cursive summit
#

How long will we have to wait for Zen 4?

#

A year?

fickle ore
#

you dont invest into pc parts

cursive summit
#

I can live without B550 for a year and pick up a full set of AM5

fickle ore
#

just buy a new system when its worth it

#

first gen AM5 will not be a big increase

#

maybe gen after that

cursive summit
#

Considering AM4 is nearing EoL I see little reason in going for 500 series

#

If AM5 is anything like AM4, B600 might be a great pickup

fickle ore
#

ill still buy 550/570

Wait wat the fuck

#

No non-X variants for Zen 3 CPUs?

#

Fml this needs additional investigation

ashen spindle
#

Makes sense, my personal assumption is that non-x parts came from not perfect yields and that has easily improved by now

cursive summit
#

Gamers Nexus is dropping weird signals, but I guess this is partly AMD's fault

#

According to him "AMD told us they have no new parts beyond the initial 4 SKUs for the time being"

#

But he suspects they might roll out new ones after launch

pale sigil
#

None x variants

Where?

cursive summit

I was also promised 1080Ti performance for 199$ 5 years ago

Where are my cheap cards you fucks?

#

I really want to know how much it really costs them to make a single CPU

#

And how much is the markup for Ryzen 5000 series

ashen spindle
#

define "really" like material cost only?

#

with no R&D

cursive summit
#

Yeah to manufacture a functional product

ashen spindle
#

look at wafer costs for 7NM on tsmc, and 12nm on GF for the IO die, figure out how many thet can fit on a single wafer, then add costs of them together + some spare change for the rest of it like heatspreader

why is it, that only graphics cards are released by other brands, but not cpu's?

ashen spindle

are you buying a chip from evga or a pcie device that has a amd/nvidia chip on iot?

Well for one because the die is... it.

its ddr1, right?

19% productivity 28% gaming increase for 5900X iirc

no just 19% ipc

fickle ore

Do I really have that bad memory these days

ashen spindle

ipc then translates with clock increases to more than 19% gains sometimes

wraith cove
#

Its better so buy it thats wot matters

fickle ore
#

yea avg. 19% ipc gains + few mhz + hardware security hole fixes + new instructions + larger cache ---> 50% in LoL and 46% in CSGO for a 2 CCX product

wraith cove
#

Def retiring 3900x for the 5900x for csgo jump alone

fickle ore
#

Not sure you want 5900x for csgo

#

5800x might be better for csgo with its single CCX, even if it boosts 100 mhz lower

wraith cove

I only play it semicasually and use system mainly for music production. Its a nice workflow boost

Kinda considering 5950x even...but at 799 thats just like...wait for TR get more ram...etc etc territory

Much depends on the 32mb vs 70mb cache

harsh grail
#

can anyone help me fix my keyboard

#

lol

#

its worked with gta before perfectly but then i stopped for a while and after a few updates it didnt work anymore

#

and i got no digital input at all just regular keys

#

it still has analog working it just doesnt work with gta even after doing everything ive done before

ashen spindle
harsh grail
#

its prob just gta problem but its done this before where it just stops working for gta

#

1 sec let me see

#

what does work mean

#

like the analog works pressure sensitive and stuff

#

says im pressing right trigger

reef patrol
#

and i got no digital input at all just regular keys
@harsh grail Umm... Digital IS normal keys. As in regular keyboard keys. 😄

#

Just making sure we're all on the same page.

harsh grail
#

ok lol well

#

i have the touch option on my keyboard

#

so the pressure sensitive definitly works

ashen spindle
#

yes, make sure digital input is disabled on the analog profile

harsh grail
#

and its on xinput

#

digital keys

ashen spindle
#

yes you want that disabled

harsh grail
#

or direct input

#

ok now what

#

digital keys off

ashen spindle
#

now it should work (within in the limitations that gta always had)

harsh grail
#

now it just doesnt have an input

#

every key does nothihng

ashen spindle
#

well yea thats the point of it, it now only acts as a controller, with the keys mapped to what you assigned in wootility

harsh grail
#

tthey are assigned

#

i told u it worked before

#

all binded to

#

like w binded to whatever

ashen spindle
#

yes so if you now press whatever you set to "right trigger" is now only right trigger and not also "w"

#

if you are in the game you might have to restart it

harsh grail
#

right trigger

#

w

#

is what its binded too

#

so if i restart game it will start working>

#

?

ashen spindle
#

it should

harsh grail
#

if it does ill be confused cause i could swear i tried it with everything

#

but i havent restarted it yet

#

so idk

ashen spindle
#

yea I had issues with it when I forgot to start it while having the right profile set up

harsh grail
#

i just find it frustrating every time i stop playing for 2 weeks it stops working

#

but i came here so lol

#

still no response

ashen spindle
#

I mean I doubt they patched the game and removed the option to have it work at all

harsh grail
#

do u have it set up in gta?

ashen spindle
#

I had, havent touched the game in forever

#

cba with all the shit updates and hackers

harsh grail
#

i will like u if u would try for me

ashen spindle
#

I dont even have it downloaded

harsh grail
#

bruh

#

modders that bad

#

ur right they are

ashen spindle
#

I played the casino heist with friends when it came out and was done after a couple days when I did all challlenges related to it

#

btu ye, if you have digital keys off, controllers inputs bound, it /should/ work idk why it doesnt want to

harsh grail
#

OK MAUBE THIS HELPS

#

this keyboard

#

does nothing

#

not on discord

#

or naything

#

when in other mode

#

if its supposed to then idk

ashen spindle
#

yes, because digital keys are disabled

#

thats the way its supposed to work

#

bc otherwise you would have controller input AND the key you are pressing

#

so in games like gta that don't like that, you need to do it or it never uses the analog input

harsh grail
#

hm

#

ok well

#

idk why wont work

#

it has worked before

#

a while ago

#

i got the keyboard only 8 months ago

#

or 9?

#

idk christmas

ashen spindle
#

nah it's just that gta sucks in regards to analog support

harsh grail
#

well fuck

#

i bought it for gta

#

10 months ago

ashen spindle
#

I mean it works, but it's always been a bit annoying to have it set up correctly

harsh grail
#

yeah but i dont mind that slong as it fucking works at all

ashen spindle
harsh grail
#

cant seem to find anything from how far i looked anyway

ashen spindle
#

I meant post your issue there again and wait if someone responds there lol

thick elk
#

He is really learning the clickbait game, but it's fine because the content is good.

ashen spindle
#

the more I think about it, the more I'm loving the gpu teaser at the end

#

not because of the performance of it being good/bad or w/e but bc it is either big navi or not-biggest navi and that means one of the leakers are heavily wrong bc both sides insist they know which one it is

thick elk
#

I think it's also a clever way to make some noise, telling a little bit and at the same time really nothing at all.

ashen spindle
#

I think nvidia are also walking in circles losing some hair "is this the best and we got lucky or is this the lower one and we are fucked"

thick elk
#

I personally think nvidia will still hold the lead, either way it's quite a big step up from rdna1, be it on bigger gpu's but still.

ashen spindle
#

it's also the first "real" navi

#

as rdna1 was still 50% gcn

#

so it should be a nice base that they can work on now

#

yes, we should totally beat up lisa bc the best product on the market is not 50% cheaper than the competition

crimson wigeon
#

herpderp

thick elk
#

It's the fastest cpu on pretty much every front, of course they are going to bump the price vs one that was not.
If intel ever wants to compete or just generally over time the prices will drop. Seems to be AMD's strategy, keep the older stuff around as a more value option.

ashen spindle
#

like AMD is no charity, we need intel around so amd doesnt become the monopoly, just because since athlon they had to be the budget option, doesn't mean they like that position lol

thick elk
#

I think architecture wise intel can put up more of a fight than they are doing. They should accept being the budget option and try to undercut amd on pricing in the desktop.
Sadly I doubt Intel wil go that route and will just keep trying to win over OEM's with nice large contracts.

ashen spindle
#

They won’t because they need the premium look, as right now they are 100% focusing on servers and laptops. On laptop they can compete bc amds refresh cadence on laptop cpus is shifted bc they needed to get ground in desktop first before they could expand

#

And in server intel is lucky that the market adapts veeeeery slowly

#

And for now they do have CXL stuff and duh on the horizon with Saphire rapids on 7nn that people are willing to wait for it and not fully ditch them yet

#

On server side

#

I actually hope their 7nm stuff works (with the current delayed timeframe) bc then we should have very nice competition that casues prices to be nice and low

That GPU shown was competitive with a 3080, which excels at 4K due to memory bandwidth, with presumably simple GDDR6

@reef patrol give me your opinion on Jim's newest take, no need for reviews if amd just discloses performances gains lul

No clue. I don't care about press conferences. I care about reviews Cat_blushingaaaaa

ashen spindle
#

def a hot take, didn't expect anyone to complain about amd disclosing more info that companies usually do lmao

wraith cove
#

They actually talked about their product so

zenith sonnet
#

So, AMD achieved all that on the exact same process with the exact same IO dies that Zen 2 used? Makes it even more impressive
And makes sense. With means they've the full team working on a DDR5 IO die for at least a year and a half now?

#

Seems I was right to buy a good X570 board and B-die sticks last year 😁

pliant shard
#

intel gladly announced ddr5 before amd

#

not that it means anything

#

i think it's just compensating for no pcie 4.0

then again b550 doesn't have 4.0

zenith sonnet

That's, relatively speaking, an even larger aquisition than ARM by Nvidia

vagrant marsh

Amd talked about amd product? Nonsense. They should have mentioned the intel i7 11085h kb rrs ea sports cpu more

LOOK GUYS INTEL IS BETTER THAN AMD

AT 5.5GHZ

shadow minnow
#

And?

#

You can hit 5.5 ghz with it

#

You can not with AMD

#

So this are valuable numbers for people who are gonna OC

ashen spindle
#

you are completely missing the point

shadow minnow
#

Only thing is that these numbers do not look legit

cursive summit
#

So you need to OC to hell to beat Ryzen 5000s stock score?

#

Assuming it actually is stock?

old marlin
#

he claims an IPC improvment

#

of something we haven't heard any performance numbers about

ashen spindle
#

that guy is the biggest intel shill known to man, this is him assuming intel works perfectly from now on with better results than ever before

cursive summit
#

The only funny thing here I can see is this

#

This is a joke in and of itself

shadow minnow
#

However 10nm superfin is really good. Wondering what performance will alder lake have

ashen spindle
#

it will be shit

#

bc big.SHITTLE configuration

shadow minnow
#

10nm superfin may even very likely be superior to TSMC 7nm

cursive summit
#

Which one?

#

7nm EUV? most likely not

ashen spindle
#

yeah it's so much better that they can't get it to work for more than 25W laptop chips

#

if it would be better we would get tigerlake not rocketlake on desktop

cursive summit
#

Is Tiger Lake big.little?

ashen spindle
#

nope alder lake is first for that

#

well, aside from lakefield

cursive summit
#

Is the whole point of big.little jamming low power parts into an LP package?

#

Or what?

#

Cheap manufacturing?

shadow minnow
#

7nm EUV? most likely not
@cursive summit yes. 10nm at it’s own was supposed to have higher density

ashen spindle
#

mixed ideas, one part is the idea that you don't need a big chip for every single task so you can put lesser tasks on it and have more cores, lower tdp bc the little cores wont need as much power

shadow minnow
#

10nm superfin is very likely bit better than 7nm EUV. Can not compete with 5 no though

cursive summit
#

So it's a laptop and Ryzen G-series competitor?

#

Alder lake

ashen spindle
#

no they are bringing it to desktop too

shadow minnow
#

We will see when 8 core tiger lake comes out

ashen spindle
#

which everyone calls retarded

cursive summit
#

I don't see Alder Lake competing with AMD Zen 4 on 5nm

ashen spindle
#

the small cores dont even support AVX512 so the entire cpu cant use it unless you want to use janky software scheduling that could mess it up

cursive summit
#

Iirc the only 5nm process available is 5nm EUV right? @ashen spindle

shadow minnow
#

It will be out sooner than zen 4 so maybe can compete with zen 3 but I doubt it will beat zen 4.
The question is if rocket lake s can beat zen 3

cursive summit
#

It most likely can at least match it

#

Rocket lake's most likely going to be Intel's 10 series enhanced

#

Good perf for a good price

ashen spindle
#

N5 can use EUV on more layers but it is not required

shadow minnow
#

And tbh, if it beats zen 3 it will be quite impressive as rocket lake uses node lot less dense and lot worse

cursive summit
#

Intel is prolly really going to rub the price uplift in AMD's face

#

Uncertain times

ashen spindle
#

yeah good look rubbing in price uplift if you max out at 8 cores with rocket lake gloryKeK

#

when you had 10 before

cursive summit
#

I see Intel doing really well in low power computing, but losing the HPC crown permanently

shadow minnow
#

Rocket lake’s most likely going to be Intel’s 10 series enhanced
@cursive summit rocket lake going to be tiger lake back port using different arch than comet lake

cursive summit
#

We'll see AMD dominating desktop and high power laptop, while Intel probably snatches ultrabooks and shit

#

At least that's the trend we are nearing towards

#

Which is rather sad tbh

#

Is there any news on Intel server CPUs? Or did they suicide after 64 core Epyc released? lul

shadow minnow
#

I am really not sure what are we going to see. Maybe Intel get’s defeated, maybe they will come with sth like AMD with zen, and maybe ARM will be already taking over CPU market then

cursive summit
#

I don't see ARM doing jack shit

shadow minnow
#

I think MacBook Pro 13 using ARM may be most powerful laptop of it’s size

ashen spindle
#

tbf intel and amd are in about the same position right now in regards to server space

#

they both have one gen (ice lake/Milan) before the next big thing using CXL interconnects and all that

#

yeah the arm book will be the best if you make it some 13.539473543 inch size so it's the only one in its size lul

#

otherwise lol nop

It will be. Apple silicon is powerful even in iPad Pro and comparable to many 13” laptops

shadow minnow
#

In MacBook there will be even more high performance cores

#

Was discussing bit with reliable leaker and he said new ARM MacBook Pro 13 is going to be lot more powerful than previous ones, even for gaming

ashen spindle
#

yeah its so powerful apple compared their new ARM cores to 2 gen old stuff bc otherwise it would be single digit improvements

#

wow

cursive summit
#

Apple silicon is powerful? thonk

#

Do they even make their own CPUs?

ashen spindle
#

... yes?

shadow minnow
#

A13 is already powerful enough

cursive summit
#

Do they make non-mobile CPUs?

shadow minnow
#

And A14 is also power usage focused

#

Do they make non-mobile CPUs?
@cursive summit they are switching from intel in 2 years

cursive summit
#

I know

ashen spindle
#

yeah thats why they compared A14 to A12, not becuase it barely changes anyything vs A13

cursive summit
#

But you expect an A14 Bionic upscaled to be good enough against Ryzen 6000?

ashen spindle
#

lol nope

shadow minnow
#

Maybe

#

Depends on few things

#

Apple silicon has advantage - 5nm

ashen spindle
#

I guess its possible if R6k is worse than R5k

cursive summit
#

"Apple silicon has advantage"

shadow minnow
#

But I expect it to beat this gen mobile stuff

cursive summit
#

We are talking 2022 here

#

That's Ryzen 6000 series

#

5nm enhanced if not 3nm

shadow minnow
#

Not true

#

2022 is end of switching

#

First products coming now or 2021 early

#

MacBook 13” expected to be first

crimson wigeon
#

Maybe announced in the upcoming event pogu ?

cursive summit
#

Like their new shitty iPads and no charging port iPhones?

shadow minnow
#

Shitty iPads?

#

Bruh

#

even most people who prefer android phones say iPad = best tablet

ashen spindle
#

but not because of the cpu

cursive summit
#

I'll tell you what's the best tablet

#

A 2-in-1

shadow minnow
#

Which is also iPad

#

You can argue iPad not laptop

cursive summit
#

That's a weird way to spell Dell XPS 13

shadow minnow
#

Bruh just stop arguing about things that are obvious lul

cursive summit
#

That's also a really weird way to spell Acer Flip and Spin

#

And an even weirder way to spell Lenovo Yoga

#

Yeah have fun spending apple tax

shadow minnow
#

If you think that is better than iPad....

#

You never tried iPad did you?

cursive summit
#

I had a look at the pricing and realized I would never buy one

#

I'll just get a 2-in-1 that's not Apple related

shadow minnow
#

The pricing is not bad compared to competition

#

As it has powerful CPU

#

...

ivory geyser
#

I wouldnt buy anything from apple even if it was 2x quicker and cheaper than the rest just because it is apple lul

crimson wigeon
#

While I will never buy anything Apple I'm definitely curious to see how their more unlocked CPUs fare!

reef patrol
#

The Mac you want to buy xD

crimson wigeon
#

yes

old marlin
#

urban lynx
