Talking 6800 in different discords with the same channel names xD
Fun fact : Danes will often switch between full danish and full english sentences at the drop of a hat xD
6800 launch aswell or no?
@fickle ore Yes.
I mean I do the same online with german people sometimes
lol
I don't
I know that 2nd and 3rd gen turkish immigrants often switch midsentence between turkish and gemran
6800 launch as well or no?
Yes. 6800/XT momentarily, 6900XT 8 Dec
the question is: do I bait for wenchmarks or jump in?
well, usually I say wait
if it is around the power you need, get one, watch reviews, return if needed is what I say with current suply
well, if you want >2080ti performance that wont work
iunno, SAM and infinity cache and all that new shit
was going to get 6800 but maybe XT
or I could see if the 5700 XT drops in price then snag one of those if so
However, I don't think I'd use the fancy new features since I don't think I'll be getting Zen 3
if it is around the power you need
1080p144 Ultra gaming (Windows and Linux), GC/Wii/U emulation included
Not sure if DirectStorage + RTX I/O equivalent needs RDNA 2 specifically, or even RDNA 3? No idea
cos it needs hardware component for compression/decompression
"NVIDIA is launching the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti on December 2, better performance than the GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER for under $400."
Nvidia Linux drivers :v
directstorage should just be a feature on the pcie spec iirc
Thinking of going Team Red from here on out since AMD plays nicer with Linux, and I do want to use Linux for gaming
I wanna get an AMD card
@wheat plume Hello I am an AMD representative Rajim Punjabi, how may I help you today?
Buy one get one deal
Ah yes
It seems my cumpooter has a popup I can't get away
@ashen spindle directstorage is, but it requires pcie 4.0 nvme ssd, wont work on others. But RTX IO/AMD equivalent tech enables direct storage -> pcie -> GPU VRAM writing, bypassing cpu/mem
you use them in combination
amd has 2 patents for that tech already
idk why they havent talked about it yet
@wheat plume Ah yes you need to visit this website it will only cost you nothing downloadmoreram.com and you also might want to download pcoptimizerpro.com and also send us a payment 400$ paypal
needs to be implemeted first I'd say
well Nvidia talked about RTX IO already and it wont come until directstorage anyway, dunno if compatible with 3000 series
:')
think rtx io was mentioned because they thought AMD would mention it due to consoles
think that was just a reaction
Ahh
@wheat plume Anyways just get an RX 5700XT when they fall in price 
@wheat plume Anyways just get an RX 5700XT when they fall in price
@cursive summit yeah.... Probably will
I'd need a new psu also
550
Would a 550W be enough for a R5 3600 + RX 6800? 5700XT?
@wheat plume That might be enough for the whole rig tbh
@vast moss I would think so yeah
Might...
Aha
Nah
I don't OC
Except the ram
Not OCing yet; might consider trying it out but dunno yet
get at minimum 650w Lana
But iirc even under load the card doesn't consume above 300W
I put it up to the advertised 3200Mhz
I'm still pretty satisfied with my performance
get at minimum 650w Lana
@fickle ore I also want a modular one
Cause holy shit that mess of cables in the hard drive bays :')
@wheat plume You know that modular PSUs cost a whole lot more 😄
Yeh :'( I know
#worth though
I would suggest not buying a PSU tbh and just undervolt the card or something
I have a semi-mod; honestly, it's fine, and it's not terrible price imo
@wheat plume yep modular ones are best 🙂 and 650w because being lower load on the psu is better for longevity I think, also best efficiency at 50%
Who would have guessed that a larger bom results in more costs
Ahhhg
https://outervision.com/b/2I6Tm3 459 W for roughly my use if I get a 6800
AMD Ryzen 5 3600 AMD Radeon RX 6800 - Power Supply Calculator Build 2I6Tm3
Like I said 550W is enough
meh, 650w has a safe barrier for spikes and better efficiency more likely, while running a bit cooler
If I keep my 1070 Ti though, I'd be at 650 W, so for that I might get a 750
Not sure if I would do that though
Lana's got money issues so she's definitely better off investing into the card
550W will be enough to drive the card
money issues = dont buy a new PC
Gaming > life
My 1660 can use up to 103W in full load
money issues = dont buy a new PC
@fickle ore I have enough GPU power to last me years!
Depends on the used power supply where it is most efficient. Typically it has best performance around 50% of its rated power
I don't play the most demanding games
u arent supposed to save on PSU anyway
I can in some games
its one of the most important parts
I don't play the most demanding games either, unless emulated BotW counts
cries in 750W Modular platinum rated PSU
UwU
Cries in 700W 30$ Thermaltake that was bought in a Chinese thrift shop

time to lose pc
It's holding up though
The regulation needs an load to function correctly and at very low loads the voltage might be unstable and go out of spec
Imma be dead honest, Corsair 550W Bronze died faster than 700W non certified Thermaltake
Though the coil whine is real bad
That Corsair 550W literally exploded in front of my eyes 
But will it fail-safe or not
That Corsair 550W literally exploded in front of my eyes
@cursive summit I have a CX550M; should I be concerned?
The one I had was a C series actually
if you like to poke the coil a lot, yes
Dunno if that's the one
I'm using a 6 year old Seasonic 660w platinum unit, thinking here if I should buy a new PSU.. Apparently PSU's are good for 50k hours at 40 celsius, mine has probably been running for 3 years at around 18-22 celsius.. Hmmh
5.7039729 Years = 50k hours
Usually due to the output capacitors drying up
so guess im good for another 6 years
free? yep
Never opened normal price
mailing you my address as we speak
I bid 1$
1 old belarussian rouble
3090's above my spec, also above my price range, else I...still wouldn't; it's a beast for power and case space
200 reichsmarks
a bite of bread
Half a bottle of cola
@reef tundra know if capacitors dry out only when powered or also when pc is shut?
1/6th the candy bar
alright 2/7th then
I mean if it was my 3090 I wouldn’t be selling it
My friend ordered 2
Both came the same time
Even though they are like 6 weeks apart
You take livers?
"Friend". That left it at the store where it got disapeared
He was very impatient and ordered it when it went in stock elsewhere lol
If he accepts monthly payments sure 
100 instalments of 1 cent
Nah not even joking 200 euros/month
Stonks. life long 200 for a gpu
Scalpers: hello there. want to make it even better?
Same with 3070s here.
They are priced at what 3080s sold for when they were in stock.
I blame 21% VAT
And of course local shops scalping
Cheapest 3070
Why am I supposed to buy them locally and "support the businesses" when they cost 400$ extra? 😄
Buy them locally from china
Just download the card
aw it was up briefly on amd site 😦
So
Get Scalpered
page not found after I tried to add to cart lol
Nope
You all trying multiple sites or focusing on one?
FFffuuuuu-
My friend gave into the scalpers and got a 3080 for over 1500 CAD
lol
bums
Microcenter got 2 XT's
well, hope it means more stock next week for AiB models
Only 30! XT cards.
@reef patrol 265252859812191058636308480000000?
though since you want to watercool maybe not the best hopes in your case
AiB stock was rumoured to be great
Nope.
There are only 2 places confirmed in the uk
AIB also said they received a LOT less cards than promised.
that rumor is a rumor you just made up
Not at all actually
Anybody transition to a G604 from a 12 button mmo mouse?
I heard a rumour someone heard a rumour that someone heard a rumour about rumours
I'm quoting official PR here at least 😄
There are conflicting reports
Hard to say what’s what but it’s pretty obvious it’s gonna be a shit show
Yeah AIBs saying they got fewer chips than promised seems perfectly in line with AMD not being able to supply enough cards themselves.
goood, gimme 1
That wouldn't be gimmeing though
I mean
It’s giving you the opportunity to buy one at a good price
Including delivery
If I get a 6800 xt I'll consider it
just wrap it in floaty things and put it on a lil floaty boat
That's par for course here to the rest of the EU.
It's why Quinn needs to buy at least 2-3 things to be worth the deal.
@pale sigil Are you charging 310 pounds for a 5600XT?
that's about what I spend to ship anything with value in the continental US
5600x duh
Oh the CPU
You're not wrong
20 pounds is 20 pounds 😄
Except Wooting shipping, that's 20 euros
And you literally laughed at 20£ which is what I responded to 😄
Or was before it changed
It was always like £10
it very much depends on how fast you want it, what company and what size, you aint shipping a pc case for the same as a cpu
Dunno that was the cheapest shipping they had
And I don't live in a third world country either 😄
wooting did get better shipping for most places couple months back
I am aware
Where are you vexxed
Ah that explains it
Why am I excluded from the "low shipping cost" list 😄
We have DHL, DPD, Itella, UPS, etc
We deserve low shipping
Let’s get started! Take a look at some real-world gaming benchmarks!

So they are comparing it to.. 5700XT
Which is more comparable to 6700XT price point wise
so no quality settings?
and AC: Odyssey lol 85 on 1080p and 1440p with 69 4k
wtf ubi
but valhalla is 1080 87 53 respectively
double wtf ubi
Shit benchmarks anyway
ofc, its a vendor

A few more minutes till benchmarks are released?
cdxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxcdxxxxxxxxxxz
why are you listing a cracked cd key?
A few more minutes till benchmarks are released?
@halcyon moss And sales.
and chaos
xD
what store?
ocuk
you are
xD
nice
is that an actual quote or did you change a letter?
Aand here we go
no amd direct sale boo
@wheat plume Both
Anyways
None in lithuania
No cards
Not even listed
Shame, we had CPUs on launch day
Paper launch it is
same
lol 0 graphics cards
Here's hoping! They took my money.
and oos from amd
Oh coolio this shoppe just straight up isn't ordering any reference models due to the extreme limited availability
I was in such a goddamned state of panic.
First store - I refresh the site constantly a minute before it goes on sale. The second I see the product, they're already gone.
Talk about some stock exchange latency right there.
WHAT A COMPLETE JOKE
I think I got one
Second store - Nothing. Still nothing. Then suddenly they are in stock. 32 of em. I hit add to cart so fucking fast. And then it asks for my card. FUUUUCK.
I ran across the apartment and scared both cats under the couch to dive for my card xD
LOL
I was 200% sure I had all of my account info pre-typed in yesterday.
Guess the fuck not.
amd site aint listed them
has here
Ocuk went down? Pitty
nvm didnt get one, loaded too long
all out
welp that one tweet sure aged like milk, anyway how about the benchmarks you guyyssss
And nice seems like Linux drivers aren't scuffed this time around
Tfw you have a decent functional card and you are upset you can't buy something
Yeah just wait a week or two for the AIBs that supposedly have a lot more availability
Probably
They are supposed to have a lot more availability
I can't find the tweet, but someone tweeted that aib models are decently available
Eh it's quarantine
Give companies a break
custom models come out next week on the 25th, not today
well they got a bunch listed with other brands
unless they all made just reference cards I guess
all the same design
In a week or two we'll get AiB designs
Nah I don't scalp
Well I refreshed multiple pages
but I would like a 6800 xt or a 6800 to trade up to somebody with some money
omfg
I didn't have permission to access the ../checkout/completed
one place is only accepting email order
fuck. them.
yes same thing happend with 3080
people drive up prices and then just dont pay it
to fuck scalper
Such short temper though 😄
no
It's only a card
which i need
@pale sigil *want
trying to get a 6800 instead of XT?
nah paypal broke
I can only get it on paypal credit
I tried for a 6800 but no dice
I think he was about to buy it from scalpers
Scalpers already selling on ebay
buy it from scalpers? what kind of a monster does that
Current price for 6800XT 800$
HAHA
50K 
People are mad as fuck
Who's going to bid 1M?
That RTX ON performance though ow
Cheers
again, people aint paying that, they just raise the bid so the scalper cant sell it
Yep
you got one mansen? what store
well guess I'll gotta try again next week

you ahve the option but it 100% isn't reserved for you anymore
Ein Artikel aus Ihrer Bestellung ist nicht mehr verfügbar! Bitte entfernen Sie die Position aus dem Warenkorb!
wot
nono
i mean
im surprised its german
this is ocuk
lol
i doubt it but the other option is basically the email i sent
to a retailer
as thy only acccepted emails
I think I want an AsRock now that I think about it
weird they werern't on the amd site
air launch
It's not quite fair to judge them yet.
The AIB custom cards are a week away.
THEN we can start flinging tonnes of shit.
yeah, after all it was not AMD's decision how they AiBs would split up their chips
Oh it was.
they probably told them to not have 0 allocated from launch
but I doubt it was a set number?
ok, AMD sells chips to AiB, what I meant, AMD did most likely not say "you need at least 30stock cards from the 100 chips we send you"
thats what I expect
They may have tbh.
But my original point stands - People aren't judging nVidia's paper launch by looking at their own FE cards alone. AIB custom cards were included in that.

also, order me one if your danish site gets stock before we do lol
TPU released their 5950X review
you dont need this one, you could get a previous gen one etc.
Looks quite good
no?
Now comes the FOMO of not having RTX 😄
Wonder if I can swindle someone intro trading their 3080
Man.... ngl
why not first see how well RTRT works on yours ?
DLSS is so damn good
Don't have to. The reviews paint a pretty clear picture 😄
AMD's "DLSS" might help, but they're still behind even with DLSS turned off.
raytracing is the only thing thats really subpar
zzz mindfactory are so slow in listing new cards
just list them and get it done with
I don't 'trust' ray-tracing tests on games that released before Ampere/RDNA2
well I didnt get to see a review yet
I assume it's between turing and ampere in RT resutls?
more cards shall be available from 25th November to pre-order
sureeee 
yes, 25th is AiB release date for the 5000th time we mention this now

fixed
It's true though.
All of the custom cooler cards are on sale from the 25th only.
So... second chance.
there will be more stock than today as well we just dont know how much more that is
could be 1% more for all we know
I would imagine it would be at least 4-5x what we saw today statisically.
Maybe not on each site. But we have a handful or more of AIBs.
ye
But now there's more people who want to buy.
yeah, RIP
With 'trust', I don't believe them to be an accurate representation of performance
Oh WOW
This page has me absolutely sold on RDNA2
https://www.techpowerup.com/review/amd-radeon-rx-6800-xt/39.html
Mansen you said the revies are clear, can you answer my question now? :p RT performance between turing and ampere ?
or better/worse?
Not a single bad frametime graph for RDNA2, much better than Ampere
ehhhh minecraft rtx and quake rtx cant really count
Sure they can.
they are made by nvidia themselves

not related to that pic mansen sent
RT timestmap.
Doesn't AMD have their own thing they're doing for RT?
Moer games. Compares with 2080TI and 3080
Doesn't AMD have their own thing they're doing for RT?
@timid chasm That's what they're using.
AMD's DLSS competitor won't be out for a while though.
so still a bit above turing, as I expected
That's what everybody is using or what HU is using?
@reef patrol How does the 3080 do in Hangar 21 compared to the 6800 XT?
amd cards seem to be quite bad with raytracing
even not comparing to dlss
which tbh doesn't matter that much
That's what everybody is using or what HU is using?
@timid chasm you "use" it by using one of the amd cards thats all lol
Not a big surprise considering how it works
There isn't anything to compare RT on a fair ground yet!
I won't miss RT this generation. Even for CB. It's a nice to have, not need to have thing.
Legion looked great with it on, but my 2080 chugged even with DLSS on.
I'd rather have 144FPS at 1440P more stable than dips.
yeah I can't stand dips
that shit drives me insane
That's why I spend more time altering settings than playing the fucking game
I wish to know what happened here
oh well, guess I'll try again next week, at least gives me time to make sure there are no big issues with amd
at least stock should come back faster than on nvidias side
i doubnt i was able to email benfore so many people
for ebuyer
but it would be nice
I'd like to see the 6900 xt not be a 3090 wannabe
i want this new hardware, it's a shame it's just... not available
pretty much
I'm waiting for Super resolution
So do I but I already waited so long what's another couple weeks
Maybe my 5700 will get support for it
5950X still MiA
i'm fine waiting for the graphics cards, i'm in Linux so the drivers won't support it right away anyway...
but still...
I mean I'm surprised anyone here got one, thats above average
i think omly Mansen did
thats how many people are ATM looking at one card on mindfactory and I bet they have <500 total
D:
yeah and I'm surprised he got one
from what i gathered shops only have up to like 30
Impressive
Yeah that's probably the most impressive thing.
that is pretty damn wild
Especially considering how poorly AMD did in previous gens.
Yeah that's probably the most impressive thing.
@reef patrol
Tbh, I find the frametime graphs to be most impressive
Yeah pretty surprising that now Nvidia cards are the ones devouring the watts
oh sheet
that's actually pretty alluring
damn
if AMD have something similar to RTX voice then maybe, as I started looking at that for a use someone told me
It's not even that Nvidia cards are chugging the watts
6800 has TWICE the perf/watt of a 5700
(and it's fine on any GPU that can run it for that)
he used a 1050
yeah, one of the things I was thinking of it for was efficiency
RTX voice isn't unique enough to be a selling point. And there are alternatives
all I need is audio routing
idgaf about noise suppresion
which is why it's a little awkward
well the early versions of rtx voice and such dont use tensor cores thats why it works on older cards for a bigger performance hits
but yeah, I wish amd had that too
it's for recording shmup replays while talking in VC
Why does a GPU driver need noise suppression? Just get one of the softwares that are available?
as I don't need noise suppression at all anyway
like I have a fan, but it's far enough away and quiet enough when I do use it that it doesn't get picked up
the only time I could want it is when I get shouted at and threatened or harassed while talking
well, time to start watching reviews I guess
not gonna get one today anymore I assume
@reef sluice There are software for playing with mic input
You don't need RTX voice
yeah, I expected as much
I think he used it as a secondary effect as he needs the suppresion
but I wasn't sure of any other software solutions anyway
virtual audio cable is a popular one for rerouting and such
Iirc audacity is one of the more audio focused software thatbgas suppression
as most people use hardware solutions, atleast that's all that ever shows up usually
But also there's a dedicated one I forgot the name of
virtual audio cable is a popular one for rerouting and such
ah yeah, I heard of that before
also, it isn't mic
it's audio out
Don't a lot of people like VoiceMeeter Banana
virtual audio cable is a popular one for rerouting and such
@ashen spindle Now there's something to trigger Mansen. I remember this being needed to get sound in Witcher 3 on release.
which is the awkward one
And it SUUUUUUCKED.
lul
iirc one fix with no software is set default to an unused one
and then record the unused output and set discord to your normal output
wait
So Witcher 3 had issues with 7.1 setups. My headphones had that fancy virtual surround...but forced. Couldn't turn it to stereo.
So I had to fake a stereo output and feed it into the headphones. But VAC produced a weird hissing static noise and output in low quality mono.
I just fucking realised a super low level solution just by randomly talking ffs
(fucking awkward though)
that and psure his setup means he hears both which was what stopped me before
screenshot
or link
they'll work
I send links to img direct sometimes
occasionally it refuses to embed
but it's usually fine
™️
It looks better than the Galaxy Fold's
hahahaha
I feel it won't work just like that, or there'll be stuff you can't tell
if reviewers get it and that's wrong though
then yeah, looks pretty hot
Today we are going to take a look at the world’s first rollable concept phone: #OppoX2021. In this video, I’ll explain how this thing rolls and what’s the possible future we can see from it.
Just know that this is a concept phone, so we may never see an official release. Even...
It's real
i dont get why its not showing on the uk amd site?
No direct sales probably.
was there just no stock for the uk
US only.
again, wait for next week before we throw rocks
Damn this concept is sick
Though I would want to know how sand and debris proof the mechanism is
I love the idea though
Much better than foldable phones
Fml I might skip out on a new phone for now and see how the Oppo is priced
Iirc it's a budget brand
imagine us actually getting stock of PC parts
I remember some good fun looking at some components before rona
Luls
what's the 6800xt priced at again?
650 msro
650
oof, that's not terrible
so for like 10 cards if you got lucky
thankfully this time it isnt that great in mining
i hear miners are SUPER HYPE for these new cards
someone mentioned NVENC encoder and I realised that is something that I need to think about
so did I
there were rumors
nope, fake rumor from before launch
also, nvenc is nvidia, forgot the name of amd's counterpart
but it is there and works since rdna1
If you want good, you CPU encode anyway
This is our review of the AMD RX 6800 XT video card, looking at RDNA2 and the reference cooler vs. the RTX 3080, 3090, 3070, RX 5700 XT, & more. Includes Smart Access Memory tests.
Sponsor: Crucial Ballistix RAM (Amazon: https://geni.us/eykEA)
Find the AMD RX 6800 XT on Amazo...
currently 1660ti + 2600x
That's not a bad gaming rig.
it's pnice
1660ti and 2600x end up with min bottleneck on eachother usually
but just want a bit more... idk,hard to resist the draw of new hardware I guess
Wife has a 9600K / 1660TI. No complaints there.
Can someone tell me why 6800XT's are being sold en masse for a price that's lover than MSRP?
Although she only plays Sims 3 and Cities Skylines on it 😄
wait what
Where? News to me.
Ebay of course
629€ for one from alright rated seller
6800XT?
although it does end up 1:1 usually
650 USD psure
so 630 euro
maybe a little less

think it should be 580 euro maybe 600
and then the extra is tax
in the UK for PC stuff I assume 1:1 USD to GBP
even though the currency value is vastly different
because why do you still care about ebay prices that are either fake or will get blown up to not have scalpers make money
Oh
The seller's selling a printed image of the card
Bruh wtf is with these image scams?
yeah of course, even if its legit they wouldnt have cards of it yet
idk why you are wasting your time looking through ebay
yeah you will see scams and prices that get inflated, that is neither new nor unexpected
Thanks for explaining that grandma 👌
didnt know having a functioning braincell makes one old
Aw, edgy
Damn I understand having fake listings, but sellings printed out graphics card renders is a new one
I guess that removes the illegal out of illegal scam
people have literally been doing that pretty much since ebay existed
people used to do that with automated rentals aswell lmao
Eh I guess I've never really tuned into ebay during a big launch
This one would be the first time
You learn new things every day
not even a launch thing that people try to sell prints of the product
ye
820 and not even free shipping
at leas you get free shipping I hope lol
Yep.
it is free shipping if I can pick it up in store 
ok fuck off mindfactory
mindfactory listed them one after another to not have all be gone instantly
thats nice I guess
but they still didn't list all models zzz
like just be done with it

no?
I was gonna say
Get a 3070 if you don't want high end waiting.
What happened here? o.o
btw
@pale sigil
wtf
MUH DLSS
Doesn't really matter. Linus and others took the time.
its about the future lad
I spose
but odds are there'd be new cards by the time you consistently would enable DLSS
as this'd quite possibly push devs to add it
but I don't feel we'd have an insane amount in twoish™️ years
if its about the future even more reason to go with AMD to support the non closed standards
RT and DLSS are sweet technologies but they're not driving me to buy one or the other card at the current time
yeah that's fair
Really hoping my ebuyer email was in time and confirmed
holy crap. the biggest webshop in the netherlands desided to simply not sell them 6800's cause stock is so terribly low.
big braing
how do you make hdr look good
Windows got an HDR/SDR balance slider
And the grey is gone now
I suddenly see colours where everything was grey before! 😄
@reef patrol gib me ur 6800!!
@ashen spindle Whats wrong with GN these days? HU and LTT testing shows a big difference for SAM and for GN its a +- situation
I saw no difference with GN testing, -perf on some, +perf on some for few %, with HU and LTT there is big boost like 10% for nearly every title
it's literally 111 vs 100 on hitman2 for example
213 vs 205 in shadow
it's 3% vs 6%? idk thats not that big of a difference
they dont show regression
what
he literally says in the cases where it's "worse" that it's within run to run variance, aka that run just had .2 fps less or whatever much it was
494.9 fps vs 494.5fps is basically the same
with almost identical .1% lows and very similar 1% lows
that is basically the same
I'll be honest I didn't even look at that, that is such a miniscule change that it basically doesn't matter
like that's just in normal run variance
it's just weird.. wonder if GN has motherboard vendor bios issues, driver issue or why would SAM increase cpu calls when its meant to decrease them?
Yeah could be run variance
like you're talking about a 3% difference in the 1% lows that get counted over not that long of a run
its pretty big when its -3 to -5% regression on GN vs +10% increase on others in same game
that is statistically significant
I think his setup is flawed based on that, should rerun tests
for a difference in the 1% lows? hell no
feel free to disagree, but that IS statistically significant difference from others 😛
how can it be statistically significant if there is not enough data to compare
well if he only makes 1 test ruch per game that is already fucked
I assume that's a minimum of 3 runs and their average per game
but maybe I expect too much
in theory that should not be needed, as regular test's show variance in a run, then you can see if it goes outside that variance or stays, unless you expect it to fluctuate then you dont need to run the new cases like 3 times every game
that isn't testing variance within a system or outside factors, so you always need atleast 3
but idk how he does it
1 run per game is clearly lazy
no I'm saying you establish a baseline and then you can do 1 run with sam on. rtx on, whatever you want to test and based on your previous runs you know if it's in or out of variance etc.
you assume test setups are perfect accuracy with no outside variance😄
they control ram up to tertiaries, they control ambient room temperature, what else do you want to make sure stays the same?
and thats why the baseline is there, to catch general variance, so you can see what the expected deviation is
Windows, scheduled tasks, AV, service routines, etc, etc
Driver bugs causing high ISR/DPC counts, hitches etc
look, the 1% lows are data of about 100 frames
are you really trying to tell me a 100 vs 103% result over 100 frames is relevant in literally any way
Can someone tell me if there is a difference between the wooting lekker two and the wooting two HE
lekker is limited run, fancy colors, higher quality keycaps, braided cable
also delivers a bit earlier
@ashen spindle it can, which is why GN has conflicting data.. not very scientific way
but the others might run only once per game so ehh
look yes, that data is interresting, should be realiably blah blah
if you actually make a big deal about what is effectively like what, 15 millisecond over the span of 3 minutes? on launch day you focus way to much on theory
if I had noticed that I probably would've just thought to myself to keep it in mind for other moments, if the deviation is bigger, otherwise see if it changes in future (perhaps next week already with AiB cards) and not really care about it more
theres no need to get personal about this.. just finding it weird whats the cause of GN results vs HU/LTT
I'm more confused why anandtech didn't put out a review
didn't mean for any of that to sound personal, just that I personally think that's weird priorities
you rather want a blower fan ?
xD fair enough
https://videocardz.com/newz/msi-unveils-radeon-rx-6800-xt-gaming-x-trio-series also there are already imo better looking AiB cards shown for next week
hello discord, where is the preview...
Yeah it's fine.. I mean GN could be the only one who's right here and others are wrong.. It's possible. Just interested in what's causing the regression on his tests and/or why he has that high variance vs others... Not really anything about priorities for myself. Just wanting to know whether SAM has driver issues, whether the tech itself has minor cpu perf hit, when I thought it should alleviate cpu bottlenecks..
Also I'm slightly biased against GN in general 😛
No wonder you are always wrong
AIBs are a nightmare for watercooling.
either could be good
i dont watercool
I assume its not an amd card?
there is a 90 quid difference
3080:?
£749.99 vs £839.99
Well pick the cheaper one
get the cheaper one
You are not going to get 90 pounds worth of extra performance either way
thermals
get the cheaper one if you are in a rush and dont want to compare/look up reviews
stock is only sold by nvidia, if you mean the short pcb with one fan on each side

@ashen spindle BestBuy
nVidia stopped selling cards.
To keep it fair... fair for who? The US apparently. Fuck everyone else 😄
@pale sigil Wait which Palit version are you buying?
well yeah, but they are marked as nvidia still, it's unlike the reference amd cards not sold with a AiB's name
Sure. Founders Edition is nVidia/AMD only.
@pale sigil And Zotac?
so
Actually the Zotac one has 15MHz higher clock
Which in the grand scheme of things achieves nothing
get the cheaper one and be ready to get amd next week bc the 3080 aint be shipping before that anyway
thats kinda my idea
Yeah get the Palit one
No difference
Also personally, it looks cooler
Have fun with 10 gigs of VRAM though
sitll cant use paypal
6000 series got unlisted on ocuk?
Oh they still up, just don't appear in the search
nothing I didn't expect from the RX6000 cards

palit ain't bad
just not great
besides
as long as the gpu doesn't throttle, you'll get normal performance
normal
just oc potential will be limited
that's fucking horrifying
oh no, stock performance, how terrible
Shit, 5 FPS lower frames than a 1300 euro card
and gaining 2 in whatever lows they show
Better take a loan and get the best one
