Those who followed our Nvidia overhead testing might find this interesting. I finally looked into power usage comparing โ€˜total systemโ€™ with โ€˜graphics cardโ€™ power and as expected Nvidia GPUs do increase CPU power and therefore tools like Nv PCAT are cheating a bit on power usage.

Higher is better tho

old marlin

should be enough for a raspberry lol

I guess so

old marlin

How are apple users using the calculator more than facetime???

ashen spindle
#

because I use the calculator quite frequently and never have used facetime

#

idk people just use different stuff, don't see whats so weird about it

wheat plume
#

its just so high up like damn

pale sigil
#

Ngl

#

Surprised by Pandora

pale sigil
#

I mean Samsung calc alone lol

zenith sonnet
#

It clearly says downloaded and preinstalled apps??

#

Oh, found it

wheat plume
#

Monthly active users

zenith sonnet
#

Using the calc once every month counts as much as using facetime every day

wheat plume
#

?

zenith sonnet
#

So, we don't actually know

wheat plume
#

?

pale sigil
#

Stats aren't specific enough

#

Basically

zenith sonnet
#

It says nothing about which is used more...

pale sigil
#

Based on this it just means that you could only need tj open the app once

fair gull
#

thats how i store nvme ssds at work

#

much esd safety

#

many scratch resistence

vagrant pagoda
#

lol

#

dat lone mpcie

ashen spindle
#

Very raid

wheat plume
fair gull
#

i only see a shit stain and nvme ssds

vagrant pagoda
#

lol

wheat plume
#

:') not wrong

vagrant pagoda
#

wait

#

that isnt even a mpcie nvme

#

its msata

#

imposter

reef patrol
vagrant pagoda
astral haven
#

I've never seen a nvme mpcie

#

Pretty sure it was ahci only on mpcie

vagrant pagoda
#

i know you can run adapters for m.2 to mpcie

#

so the slot supports it

#

but i dont think there was an actual drive

#

but ive been suprised before

#

i have seen with my own eyes a sata express ssd

astral haven
#

The other problem is bios support

astral haven
vagrant pagoda
#

no

astral haven
#

I've never seen proof of one existing :/

vagrant pagoda
#

i have a pair of the sataexpress to m.2 adapteres in haswell rig

astral haven
#

Only u.2
But no native sata express

vagrant pagoda
#

it was a review sample unit he had gotten off ebay

#

was in video chat

#

didnt screenshot

astral haven
#

Ah

#

Neato

vagrant pagoda
#

yeah

#

i have a extreme9

#

and it has a m.2 that shares with one sataexpress

#

and a dedicated sata express

astral haven
#

The problem is sata express is mechanically identical to u.2 so it's basically impossible to tell them apart :/

vagrant pagoda
#

so the best way to raid a pair of drives was dual sata express

astral haven
#

It's pretty pog

vagrant pagoda
#

i have one of the plx u.2 drives

#

its 4 m.2 in a u.2 with a plx chip

#

its a review unit

astral haven
#

Not plx

#

Those use an asmedia chip

#

Orders of magnitude cheaper

vagrant pagoda
#

nope

astral haven
#

Wut

#

What device then?

vagrant pagoda
#

it was a kingston prototype

#

that seeded some to server providers to test

#

and some got resold

#

its a 3.5 inch drive

astral haven
#

Hmm

#

Still odd

vagrant pagoda
#

that holds 4 m.2

#

with u.2 3.0x4 connection

astral haven
#

Plx is really not the best option for that

#

The asmedia chips are just so much cheaper

vagrant pagoda
#

they didnt exist then

#

also the plx/pex chips are cheap now

astral haven
#

When was this, 2015?

vagrant pagoda
#

you can get pex quad m.2 in x8 slot for $300 new

#

same as as the asmedias

#

they are good options for bulk storage on desktop chipsets

#

though i wish they had a 8 m.2 into x16

astral haven
#

I'm aware about the first one, I paid $220 for x16 to 8x4 :P

#

But then they increased prices :/

#

But no the asmedia can get you x4 to quad x2 for $150 in a retail product

#

Quad x4 to x8 for $160 in a chinesium thingey a few months ago

vagrant pagoda
#

yeah

#

no more plx for me these days

#

i dont keep bulk storage on my actual machines

astral haven
#

Me neither, all 3 nvmes on the plx are boot drives :P
This guy is where the rest of the storage goes

vagrant pagoda
#

jank fam

#

jank

astral haven
#

Couldn't get it to bend properly from inside of the testbench

#

Slightly too sharp angle for the fiber

#

But yes

#

Jank

vagrant pagoda
#

you can get fiber 90s

astral haven
#

The case is facing the camera, it would have to do a 180 then a 90 up

#

The 180 is the problem

#

And uh

#

I'm gonna be using single mode os2 on a 56gbit link

vagrant pagoda
#

90 at the case and loop around

astral haven
vagrant pagoda
#

luckily all mine is dac

astral haven
#

Find me a 50 foot dac :/

vagrant pagoda
#

10m is limit

#

for sfp+

astral haven
#

Yea this is qsfp+

#

Haven't seen over 3m :/

vagrant pagoda
#

qsfp+ is the same cable spec

astral haven
#

Wut

vagrant pagoda
#

its just 4 data lanes

astral haven
#

Find a 56gbit dac cable over 3m

#

(ib fdr)

vagrant pagoda
#

they have 100g dac 10m

#

you need sfp56 or qsfp56

astral haven
#

Wow

vagrant pagoda
#

qsfp56 is 200g

astral haven
#

56gb infiniband

vagrant pagoda
#

thats not qaud

#

thats single sfp56

astral haven
#

It's really not lol

#

It's infiniband fdr

vagrant pagoda
#

ah

#

so its just over qsfp+

astral haven
#

Yup

vagrant pagoda
#

there is sfp56 which is different

astral haven
#

Yup it's quad sfp 14 I think?

vagrant pagoda
#

56g infiniband is your issue then for dac cables

astral haven
#

Yup

vagrant pagoda
#

i only see 5m 56g

#

but 10m 100g

#

no one makes an active dac 56g

astral haven
#

I ordered a pair of 100g transceivers and I'm hoping they will still work

vagrant pagoda
#

i only have 40g+10g

astral haven
#

Worst case I drop to 40g yea

vagrant pagoda
#

i have dual 40g to my main file server

#

single to my backup server

#

and the last to my main desktop

astral haven
#

Infiniband sounds so much cooler than ethernet

vagrant pagoda
#

everything else is 10g

#

other than the hassle

#

youre going to end up with ehternet over infiniband lol

astral haven
#

Actually I'm currently using ipoib

#

Not ethernet

#

Since it's direct attach

#

It's separate from my Ethernet network

#

God $25 for a pair of X3 pros and $55 for a pair of 100g tranceivers

#

What an insane deal

vagrant pagoda
#

dosent ipoib still have tons of cpu usage?

astral haven
#

I ended up spending more on adapters than the actual important bits

astral haven
#

Server sees a max of 10% on the highest core

#

It's just slow without rdma (which I'm trying not to fork out $200 to Microsoft for)

vagrant pagoda
#

for smb?

astral haven
#

Yup

#

Smb direct

vagrant pagoda
#

samba dose it

astral haven
#

Only keys I have that support it are server 2016 :/

#

And I'm not dailying 2016 in 2021

#

Samba ain't windows

#

Hosting ain't the problem

#

Receiving is

vagrant pagoda
#

for what usage

#

i use samba as server and windows 10 pro as client

astral haven
#

You can't use samba as the client on windows

#

For 56gbib to work you basically need rdma, and windows 10 pro for workstations is the only native windows implementation

#

I'm trying to max out my pile of 2.4GB/s drives on my server

#

Which I could just pay Microsoft for and have it work

#

But I don't want to :/

vagrant pagoda
#

normal pro has it

astral haven
#

Nope

vagrant pagoda
#

100%

astral haven
#

Show me

#

Network transfer that doesn't appear in task manager

#

Or

#

What are you using to mount the drive

astral haven
#

Show me it working

#

Cause I did that too

#

But I'm limited to around 800MB/s

#

And it shows up in task manager

#

Rdma bypasses the windows networking stack

vagrant pagoda
#

there isnt any thing fancy to mount

#

it works like a normal network drive

astral haven
#

Yea

vagrant pagoda
#

atelast as far as explorere cares

astral haven
#

And if you do that on windows 10 pro it doesn't use rdma

vagrant pagoda
#

though exporers copy system sucks dick

#

it dose

astral haven
#

๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ I was using crystaldiskmark

vagrant pagoda
#

i cap out the 40g link

#

its probally a IB issue

astral haven
#

Show me task manager

vagrant pagoda
#

are the cards the same and firmware

astral haven
#

Ion

#

Rdma is strange

#

Show me task manager during a transfer

#

And yes Linux is faster if you aren't using rdma

vagrant pagoda
#

you get shit for iops without rdma

astral haven
#

Yup

vagrant pagoda
#

which is why you dont want to use windows copy to test it

#

it will never show the difference

astral haven
#

I wanna see task manager

vagrant pagoda
#

have you tried MS's rdma test?

astral haven
#

I tried the commands and they all confirm my adapter supports rdma, and that I can't use it

#

Show me task manager

#

Or if you want resource monitor

#

Either way

#

If it works for you I might have to use Linux on my server :/

vagrant pagoda
#

why wouldnt you lol

astral haven
#

Cause It took about 10 minutes to configure server 2016

#

It's not possible that I could get Linux configured in that time

#

I have such a stupid amount of jank hardware :/

vagrant pagoda
#

i mean im using illumos

#

but it was all configed during setup

astral haven
#

That have fusionio drivers?

#

I didn't see them in the distro list

vagrant pagoda
#

is solaris on there?

astral haven
#

Don't see it

#

Apparently there's a separate hardware revision for oracle?

#

Ooh a review says it does Solaris 10 or 11

#

Found a Solaris 10 driver

#

Would that even work in 2021?

vagrant pagoda
#

i would just try without any drivers

#

its probally supported natively

astral haven
#

Lmao

#

Fam

#

It uses a pair of fpgas as a controller

#

No

vagrant pagoda
#

im telling you

astral haven
#

No it's not supported

vagrant pagoda
#

try it

astral haven
#

How much you wanna bet

#

:P

#

Thought so

vagrant pagoda
#

im not the one using deadend hardware

astral haven
#

Works great in windows :P

#

Also some of us aren't made of money

#

I'd bet all the hardware I added on to this system to make it a server cost less than just your nics

#

Besides you literally can't buy an SSD with specs like these any more

vagrant pagoda
#

i mean my nics were ewaste

#

so i doubt

astral haven
#

And no I'm not getting 2.4tb of optane

#

Ah

#

Well that's p cool

#

But what about storage

#

You can't get 2.4tb at 22pbw endurance under a grand

#

And this was $220

vagrant pagoda
#

who cares about endurance if it has no warrenty

astral haven
#

What use is a warranty if you are going to burn through it anyways

#

And id prefer enterprise hardware with built in error correction over consumer garbage

vagrant pagoda
#

why do you need hardware error correction

#

software is faster

astral haven
#

Lmao no it's not

#

Block level error checking I mean

#

The only device even close is the Seagate crypto ssd

#

And uh

#

No thanks

#

22pbw endurance...

vagrant pagoda
#

yeah but with the controller dies in 2 years that flash will help you a lot

#

lol

astral haven
#

Fam it's an fpga

#

It's very robust

vagrant pagoda
#

fpga - robust

#

good jokes

astral haven
#

As long as the nand is alive it's gonna be fine

vagrant pagoda
#

lol

#

what do you need that has to even need close to that kind of uptime?

#

you only have one

#

so its moot anyway

astral haven
#

Not uptime

#

Durability

#

I also want to be able to turn off the server and come back to it and have all my data in 10 years

#

And no, hdds don't count, I live in earthquake land

#

Also buying a hdd and an SSD would be more expensive

vagrant pagoda
#

lol

#

using a ssd as long term storage?

#

why

#

use something rated for it

astral haven
#

I'm not buying optane

#

Actually that's not true

#

I'm not buying storage quantities of optane

vagrant pagoda
#

haivng a power off life longer than days should never been a requirement for hot storage lol

astral haven
#

Mlc power off time is longer than hdds according to dod

#

And optane is theoretically fully stable

#

At least emlc

#

And uh this is emlc

#

And no I'm not getting a Blu-ray library as my data storage

#

I very much care about responsiveness

astral haven
#

Man I really wish some of the enterprise folks used slc these days

#

I don't want to raid a hundred nanoscopic drives, I want a big plank of slc in this style

#

This drive makes me so very sad

#

NetApp ontap 9 exclusive

astral haven
#

2tb of 20k cycle mlc

#

Beautiful pcb

#

Most likely 16 channels so easily saturating pcie 2x8

crisp granite
#

true

#

more space in a given form factor, at a lower price

#

can never argue with the value proposition

astral haven
#

I mean you can

#

Afr of the 660p is around 45%

#

That's the only mass deployed qlc SSD that I'm aware of

#

And uh

#

45% is horrifying

#

10% drives remaining after 2 years

crisp granite
#

...

#

yeah, that's just...no

#

that's mostly OEM fodder, though, no?

#

mmm, spinning rust, loves sudden drops

astral haven
#

The 760ps it replaced were sub 1%

crisp granite
#

๐Ÿ˜ฌ

astral haven
#

My 12tb drive started erroring after only a year and a half

#

But yeah the problem with qlc is that after a year and a half you already will need to refresh your disk

#

And no consumer drives that I'm aware of do it automatically

#

(and if they did I'd be very concerned since qlc can only withstand a few hundred writes per cell...)

#

Tlc is fine for most consumer devices

#

But qlc is just

#

Nah

reef patrol
#

I doubt my 4TB QLC will ever manage to be worn before it is horribly outdated ๐Ÿ˜„

astral haven
#

Magician?
It doesn't for tlcs

#

But I don't own a Samsung qlc

astral haven
fickle ore
#

360$ for P4800X 375GB a good or bad deal?

astral haven
#

That's the normal price

#

Optane is $1/gb m.2 is $1.5/tb

#

Do not get an es optane for over $1/gb

fickle ore
#

What's wrong with ES?

#

so bad

astral haven
#

No official endurance rating

#

It's fine just don't pay over market price for a consumer drive even tho it's a dc drive

fickle ore
#

alright

astral haven
#

That's better than it used to be?

old marlin
#

how are raspberrys this bad

#

tried booting from an SSD

#

now it is checking the disk for 30 minutes

wheat plume
#

Checking the disk is at the OS level
A lot of Ubuntu based distros do that

#

Dont blame the Pi for that one xd

#

(Also it happens pretty fast on good drives anyway..... SD cards are slow)

old marlin
#

and it is the hardware not allowing me to seamlessly boot from a media designed to be booted from

wheat plume
#

oh?

old marlin
#

like an SD card

#

they die waaaay too qickly

#

since they just were not made for that kind of application

wheat plume
#

I think you need a certain type of SD card?

old marlin
#

there is no certain type

#

like yea there are classifications

#

but they don't change much about the actual design of the flash

#

they aren't made to be constantly rewritten

#

so depending on the application them lasting half a year is good mileage

wheat plume
#

o.o

old marlin
#

the one I am currently trying to set up lasts longer

wheat plume
#

I assume they last a lot longer in regular usage for things like storage in cameras and switches? XD

old marlin
#

but I wanted to use it as a test plattform to see how well it will work

old marlin
wheat plume
#

They do on Switch if your game is stored on it :P

old marlin
#

?

#

not really

#

most games don't save permanently

#

even if they do they could just write that on the internal memory

#

and then have an even to push it on the SD card when the game is closed

wheat plume
#

oh hm

old marlin
#

a cheap af SSD is 18โ‚ฌ for 120gb

#

there is no reason to use an SD card over it

#

other than not wanting to change

thick elk
#

I find that for a lot of use cases on a pi a sd-card is the better option.
Lifespan is only an issue with a lot of writers really and micro-sd's have a smaller footprint.
Often the performance is not really that important anyway.

wheat plume
#

18...wot

old marlin
#

that takes like 3mm on the back of the pi

#

if they had a port for it onboard

thick elk
#

if they had a port yes but adding the port would add cost and for a lot of use cases the benefits of a ssd are of little value.

old marlin
#

a single m.2 sata port can't be that much more expensive than an SD card

thick elk
#

maybe, still board space would come at a premium and it would still take significantly more effort to swap them.

#

It's not just the connector and screw but also some extra electronics to drive it.

#

Maybe if they introduce a larger model-d

wheat plume
#

๐Ÿค” Vivo are making a patent for a phone with a drone built into it....

crisp granite
#

the screen improvements and ethernet port are "nice to haves" but it's not a gamechanger that would justify purchasing the OLED model over the standard imo

wheat plume
#

Oh my

shadow minnow
#

Tbh If I wanted to buy a switch, OLED itself maybe would be enough for me to go for the OLED model. Question also is, how much more does it cost

crisp granite
#

...

wheat plume
#

$20 more I think

crisp granite
#

I just want a fucking switch that doesn't run like a PC from 10 years ago

#

mkay, thanks, good talk

shadow minnow
vagrant pagoda
#

I want a switch that isn't a Nvidia shield

#

Lol

wheat plume
#

I think it's the same price as a current Switch + game bundle

vagrant pagoda
#

Or

#

Atleast a shield that has non game apps

#

Like they could of easily doubled ram for the sole purpose of allowing native voice chat

crisp granite
#

hm

#

idk, I'd just want a better SoC

#

something that doesn't suck donkey balls

#

:P

wheat plume
#

What that

#

Idk that phone

chrome estuary
#

it's not a phone

#

it's a dap

wheat plume
#

Oh...

chrome estuary
#

pmp?

#

i mean...

vagrant pagoda
#

I mean is there a arm aoc with more gpu grunt than a tegra?

chrome estuary
#

Fiio makes "pmp" and "dap" interchangable with their M series

#

like the super nice 1500$ (or maybe 2500$ I can't remember) one

#

heh

shadow minnow
wheat plume
#

What about in graphics?

shadow minnow
#

Not entirely sure but at least think so. Canโ€™t find really accurate performance data about switch but at least from what is said about Tflops, which is not the best unit to measure by but still

wheat plume
#

Oh

shadow minnow
#

Yeah, Tflops look to be lot in favor of m1. Not that surprising tbh considering itโ€™s much never and 5nm

vagrant pagoda
#

Switch is the same as a shield

#

Tons of info on the shield

#

The new switch is same soc but die srink

#

OLED has the same

shadow minnow
#

Sounds pretty bad tbh. Considering that arm architectures have improved quite a lot in all the years, with especially M1 as example.

young pecan
#

Yโ€™know actually...

#

Switch dock thatโ€™s also an external GPU for proper 4k gameplay.

#

Iโ€™d buy it.

shadow minnow
#

Question is how far could the CPU get you

young pecan
#

Isnโ€™t the new one like 8 core or something?

vagrant pagoda
#

I mean I feel the frame rate tanks are gpu bound

#

Tegra is 4 big 4 little already

young pecan
#

Yeah, I can see it being GPU bound.

shadow minnow
#

Yeah but the frequencies and stuff are very low. It is most likely GPU bound now, but with eGPU it could very likely become cpu bound

vagrant pagoda
#

I mean

#

If you did nothing but increased res

young pecan
#

New switch, tho.

vagrant pagoda
#

It wouldn't hit cpu any harder

#

Adding bigger textures could bottleneck storage

#

But not really cpu

shadow minnow
#

Would have some impact most likely, but true, maybe not that much.
Still, definitely think Nintendo could have included better SoC tbh

vagrant pagoda
#

There isn't one to include

#

Apple isn't going to sell m1s

#

And there isn't anything else with a better soc

#

Better CPUs yeah

#

But the x1 is like 256 Maxwell cuda cores

shadow minnow
#

Apple not, but at least newest gen Qualcomm socs also pretty likely have more performance

vagrant pagoda
#

It's dumb powerful for a arm

shadow minnow
#

And well, Nintendo is a company that could maybe even look into to some extend custom soc

vagrant pagoda
#

Not really

#

Customize an existing aure

shadow minnow
#

I mean, Most likely not fully custom, but in collaboration

vagrant pagoda
#

But not a ground up

shadow minnow
#

^

vagrant pagoda
#

Look at MS and Sony

#

They have amd off the shelf socs

#

With custom clocks and GPU counts

young pecan
#

Has anyone made CPU accelerators yet that work with Thunderbolt?

#

I see zero reason you couldn't make a CPU accelerator.

shadow minnow
#

I mean, I think that Nintendo could at least get a custom Qualcomm soc, maybe with more GPU cores or sth.

vagrant pagoda
vagrant pagoda
#

Wait

#

I think they are pre gcn

young pecan
#

'Cause like... PCI-E hotswap exists already, so why not have dGPU/CPU accelerator on the dock itself?

vagrant pagoda
#

Lol

#

The cpu isn't the issue

#

It's ram

#

And gpu

shadow minnow
#

I mean, itโ€™s not the best, but better than current, and I donโ€™t think they would convince Apple to give them M1s or A14s for switches lul

young pecan
#

Oh no, RAM.

#

sWaP iT OuT

#

Even if it's stuck on there Ninty could simply just start sticking bigger ones on there.

Good News everyone: Panasonic's new high-end Oled TV lineup kicks every other TVs butts.
Picture quality, SDR/HDR-sustained or peak-brightness, 99 % P3 color gamut reached, the AI processing, motion handling, input lag etcetera -
just the whole package: the best TV out right now.

The JZ1000/1500 (same TV, different model name depending on country) 55 inch version costs only 2000 โ‚ฌ.
Same as Sony's A90J but overall better.
The JZ2000 got a very very slightly overall better PQ to more panel calibration, but the price is so high (3000 โ‚ฌ)
also due to the better sound system.

#

The 48 inch version JZ1000/1500 sadly has no master oled panel and metal cooling backplate, so sustained-peak-brightness in all modes should drop by at least 20 %.
Still better than anything the LG CX/C1 is offering.

Effort

ashen spindle
#

yeah most likely on the 5900x and 5950x

#

then again, wouldn't make sense to throw them away if one die is not good enough after placing them on the chip

#

so maybe low volume on lower end versions that are just leftovers?

astral haven
#

There was a 2ccd 5800x

ashen spindle
#

yeah and I think I have a 2 ccd 5600x

#

but just because they can salvage them doesn't mean they want to introduce even more V cache skus ๐Ÿ˜›

astral haven
#

It'll basically tell us yields

astral haven
ashen spindle
#

no it just shows the one I have as CCD2

astral haven
#

Ah

ashen spindle
#

didnt quite remember if it would show both or just second if it has 2

astral haven
#

Yea that happens

ashen spindle
#

I guess depending on how they cut it off it could be either way

astral haven
#

But no that's not a 2 ccd chip

#

The 2 ccd chips list both ccd temps

ashen spindle
#

but also, if they can disable the 3d cache they might just turn bad chips into regular 56/5800x versions

astral haven
#

Yup

ashen spindle
#

that way 3d cache would be limited to higher margin products

#

who knows

astral haven
#

The cache won't meaningfully change the profits on any chip over $300

ashen spindle
#

on a per chip bases you're right. But if it is good enough to get people who'd otherwise just get a 5600/5800 to buy a more expensive one, it could change profits

astral haven
#

I suspect there will be at least a $30 premium for cache on a single ccd and double that for a 2ccd, that is already 70% of the silicon costs of the entire CPU...

#

Cache and all

#

Basically if you pay more than like $20 it will be a positive for amd

ashen spindle
#

and they are still a company, if the yield is good enough to barely have any defects from it, having more people pay a higher premium, earnings calls will look even better ๐Ÿ˜›

astral haven
#

That definitely doesn't hurt

ashen spindle
#

after all the current stock price already is expecting them to beat guidelines, so gotta do even better for it to grow

astral haven
#

What I really want tho is and to integrate a heat exchanger using that bonding tech

#

If you could actually cool these CPUs you could clock these so much higher

ashen spindle
#

I like the idea, but I feel like it's too hard for the pay off

#

as you'd need to basically bond it on 3 ( or 2 if you ignore perfect IO die connection) chips at the same time, that could differ in height etc.

astral haven
#

What

#

I'm talking microfluidics

ashen spindle
#

or what did you mean with heat exchanger?

#

ah I thought you meant putting the IHS on it lol

astral haven
#

Nah

#

Inside the silicon throw a bit of fluid, some channels, and some mems devices

#

6ghz CPU hype

#

Oh my god you might be able to fit a full stage in there

#

That would be pog

ashen spindle
#

next gen intel HEDT chip they show off will be a 1-of sample of that with a phase changer hidden behind the stage to reach 4ghz again on 50 cores or so kek

astral haven
#

Nah, Intel is the one with the microfluidics patent

fickle ore
#

I need to check if I have 2 ccd 5800x but the chances are very low ๐Ÿ˜›

astral haven
#

It's really easy to check, run aida64

ashen spindle
astral haven
#

If your write is over 2/3 of your read, it's a 2 ccd

ashen spindle
#

yeah I dont get your point then lol

astral haven
#

Cool the CPU better and it won't use as much heat

ashen spindle
#

yes

astral haven
#

But I know a few folks with 3175xes

#

Definitely wasn't a one off cpu

fickle ore
#

those within silicon fluid cooling patents are old.. one day...

ashen spindle
#

oh, no I just meant to poke fun at intel because they tried to hide the fact that they had to use a chiller for that demo and acted like it was on air or water

fickle ore
#

Intel should've leveraged those XD

ashen spindle
#

so next time they were to make a secret 1 of chip for better cooling and retail wouldn't have it ๐Ÿ˜›

astral haven
#

Yea Intel should brag about their overclocking team

#

Not hide them under a curtain

young pecan
#

Remember that chiller was also super badly disguised?

astral haven
#

It wasn't disguised lol

young pecan
#

Like it was clearly a chiller and their official statement was 'Oh well we can't tell you what it is.'

astral haven
#

It was just
Under a table

young pecan
#

Iirc it was under a table, that was also covered from view?

#

Or was that a different piece of classic Intel shenanigans?

astral haven
#

Yup
Under a table with a tablecloth

fickle ore
#

@astral haven just says trial version

astral haven
#

1s

fickle ore
#

ok theres something wrong with my bios

#

memory latency is bollocks wtf

astral haven
#

Aww they removed it
You used to be able to Google search an Aida key

astral haven
fickle ore
#

memory latency doesnt make sense

astral haven
#

That's extremely good for 1800 fclk

#

Especially without tuned subs

fickle ore
#

I think I was closer to 60ns last time

astral haven
#

60ns is very tough

#

Definitely not possible on odd cl

fickle ore
#

wdym, zen 3 should get close to 53 ns? 60 should be quite average

#

or maybe im remembering wrong

astral haven
#

Lmao no

#

85 is normal

fickle ore
#

@ashen spindle run that tool

ashen spindle
#

after work

astral haven
#

Even Intel doesn't go that low without minor effort

fickle ore
#

I had to go eco mode (65w) and lower my fclk/memory timings due to summer ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

29.7*c inside lol

astral haven
#

Oof

#

But yeah my 5950x does 85 at jdec and 75 at xmp

#

Only managed to get it to 71 so far manually :/

#

And BTW c16 may be faster than c15

#

Flat 16s that is

fickle ore
#

y?

astral haven
#

You'll have to test but thats AMD for you

#

You are running cr1

fickle ore
#

Well I'm in GDM 15-15-15

astral haven
#

That's not possible

#

Gdm only allows even timings

#

It says right there that you are running cr2

#

And gdm is cr1 only

fickle ore
#

uff

astral haven
#

Run zentimings

fickle ore
#

oh fuck

#

it put 2T on auto

astral haven
#

Lmao you ain't posting 32gb on 1t gdm off

fickle ore
#

I am actually

#

but it bsods in game ๐Ÿ˜„

astral haven
#

Wow

#

Golden cpu

fickle ore
#

oh nice, got lucky

astral haven
#

Cause the tomahawk isn't smd dimms

fickle ore
#

Think mine does 2000 FCLK with ease

astral haven
#

Is it?

#

Yea the tomahawk does 2k

#

All cpus do 2k but it depends on the board if you can run it

fickle ore
#

ah

astral haven
#

At least all that the oc folks have tried

#

My board doesnt

#

:/

fickle ore
#

Would it be better if I go put GDM and cr1

astral haven
#

Extremely likely

fickle ore
#

15-15-15 or 16-16-16?

astral haven
#

Unless you have carefully tuned your timings

fickle ore
#

I havent

#

these are default

astral haven
#

Has to be flat 16s, all timings must be even

fickle ore
#

dafuq I was playing with 15-15-15-35 GDM T1 earlier lol

#

brb

astral haven
#

You may have set that but you were not getting that

#

Also fix soc
Set it to 1.1

fickle ore
#

why, my board is completely fine with 1.05v

astral haven
#

Oh alright

#

Yea that's running flat 16s

fickle ore
#

on default its 1.15v lol

astral haven
#

Guess your board is type 2

fickle ore
#

but even memory tuned to max its ok at 1.05v

#

type 2?

astral haven
#

Type 1 won't post
Type 2 posts but lies about timings
Type 3 posts and corrects the timings

#

Mine is type 3

#

Guess yours is type 2

#

Or did you set c15 in bios?

fickle ore
#

I set GDM = enabled, and it put first timing to 16 from 15, and others I set manually to 15-15-35

astral haven
#

Ah

fickle ore
#

much better

astral haven
#

Hunh

fickle ore
#

check latency

astral haven
#

Ye so that's good

#

Why aren't you running 4000?

fickle ore
#

Summer and room heating to unbearable and CPU tempts going to 70c ;/

astral haven
#

70c????

#

You mean 97c?

fickle ore
#

ye normally like 50-60c

#

74c in overwatch

astral haven
#

70c is idle temps on stock cooler for the 5600x

fickle ore
#

lol

astral haven
#

70c XD

#

Smh

#

Just use pb2 settings

fickle ore
#

ECO MODE 65W rocks

astral haven
#

I guess maybe a 1ccd CPU can handle eco mode without stuttering like mad?

fickle ore
#

No idea. I hope mine is 1ccd, is it?

astral haven
#

I guess I should say 8c

#

Show hwinfo

#

If it says ccd 0 temp ccd 1 temp it's dual ccd

fickle ore
#

I think we both checked with Quintosh when we got our CPU's, but I can't remember anymore lol

#

dual ccd? :I

@fickle ore do you know where i can buy chinise video cards?

wheat plume

my scatter plot failed......

#

I have two arrays, one for x axis and one for y and a third array for the color of each marker

#

I swapped x and y axis variables and same thing but sideways.....Maybe it is plotting the data correctly?!

crimson wigeon
#

probably that one rogue 1000 value skewing it

wheat plume
#

thats actually 999 according to the max value of the column its meant to represent

#

every other value in the column is between 0 and 40

and then you have one thats 999 for some reason

You know how matplotlib can map scatter plots to a range of values and color them accordingly?

#

how do I display this as a legend for the chart?

like yellow = 10-20, blue = 30 - 40, etc

#

cause this didnt work but almost there perhaps

ashen spindle

@astral haven either you saw this and thats how you mentioned the idea, or the article might be something you want to read kek https://twitter.com/aschilling/status/1413445489442234374

Interesting piece by TSMC regarding โ€žUltra High Power Cooling Solution for 3D-ICsโ€œ. They looked into if and how itโ€™s possible to cool >2 kW on >500mm^2 chips with water-cooling injected into a silicon layer above the active parts.

wot??? this aint 999

#

there it is....

but WHY?!

steep lily
#

can you send the py file? i m just curious.

wheat plume
#

nope ;-;

#

well, its 3 arrays made from different columns of a dataframe I made

and each one is x, y and color of the scatter plot

steep lily

replace the data by what you want.
I just want to see how the ploting works

then you have it?

you can remove the other import lines

Windows is just a pain in general for this kind of thing

wheat plume

yeah, Id use Linux too but my supervisor is on windows and the last script he gave me would not work correctly when I tried it on Linux :/

so I had to use Windows

misty saffron

yeah and comic sans doesn't bother you

don t pre order a waiting too HE, stay with your wooting 2 ^^

i dont wanna get a new keyboard anyway xd

and when I do, i wanna get low profile

i don't like the enforced hvci in windows 11

wheat plume

the wat?

misty saffron
#

hypervisor-protected code integrity

wheat plume
#

ah...

#

Harder to fake a VM?

misty saffron
#

harder to load an unsigned driver

wheat plume
#

oooohhhhhh

#

Im worried I wont be able to dual boot once 11 releases

#

Cause it requires secure boot

misty saffron
#

for now you can literally just disable virtualization so the hypervisor doesn't load

#

i wonder what they'll do in release builds

#

not boot if virtualization isn't supported??

wheat plume
#

wait

#

oh.... wtf

vagrant pagoda
#

I never understood why they would want to push the security limits of hypervisors like that

wheat plume
#

Cant wait for the massive amount of people reluctantly buying new computers because the PC health check app told them their current one cant run Windows 11

reef patrol
#

๐Ÿ˜„

wheat plume
#

It said my new computer isnt able to, with a fucking GTX 1660 and Ryzen 5 3600

reef patrol
#

Here's hoping Microsoft fixes that and does more "annoying" popups about free upgrades. Before people it launches.

wheat plume
#

Hey, if it can say my computer cant run Windows 11....

#

ffs

reef patrol
#

Hence "fixes that" ๐Ÿ˜›

wheat plume
#

IDk if they care enough, they just want new computer sold

reef patrol
#

Microsoft wants Windows 11 on as many machines as possible. The vast majority of adoption is pre-existing machines.

wheat plume
#

I fixed it myself by enabling fTPM in BIOS and reran the check, THEN it told me I CAN run Windows 11

But the average person is not going to know that they must enable something in BIOS or if their CPU supports it

crimson wigeon
#

The average person is going to use a prebuilt where it's all properly configured as per MS' requirements from the factory

reef patrol
#

That's what I mean - The tool needs to read the motherboard/CPU combo and read it properly. Like the third party tool ๐Ÿ˜„

wheat plume
#

Yeah they do

#

the windows key

#

They also direct you to the windows store to buy them from there

ashen spindle
#

.. tell me how many people are going to buy a pre built after having a non-pre built where TPM is not active by default

#

doubt they care about those 10 people

wheat plume
#

idk, even on computers you build yourself, TPM is not on byt default so those people will also be told they need to get a new cojmputer

#

like me

#

This is custom built but I was told id need a new one by that app

ashen spindle
#

yes that is what I just said, on a non- prebuilt, tpm is not active by default

#

and the only way MS would make money from it, if you now go and buy a pre-built that has windows installed already

ashen spindle
#

would you buy a pre built pc now that you have a custom pc?

wheat plume
#

nu

ashen spindle
#

so MS would not make money from you

wheat plume
#

but I also knw about TPM and know how to enable it

#

so I dont need to get a new one

ashen spindle
#

yes, but again, do you think anyone who sees this on their custom built pc

#

would then go and buy a pre built?

wheat plume
#

no

ashen spindle
#

so then MS would not make money

wheat plume
#

All prebuilts have TPM enabled by default?

ashen spindle
#

all? probably not

#

but very many or most, vs 0 on the custom built pc's

#
  • you can see they dont care about windows license money given you can just use unactivated windows forever
crimson wigeon
#

But with the watermark of shame

ashen spindle
#

well yesn't

#

it's not always there, sometimes it just takes an hour or more to first appear lmao

#

and if I play a game in 16:9 the watermarks is on the black rand on my 21:9 screen so it doesnt cover anything anyway peepoGiggle

astral haven
ashen spindle
#

..yes?

#

how does that tell me if all pre builts have it on by default or not currently?

#

nvm I read that as 11 lmao

#

so there we go

wheat plume
#

My friend hasnt activated his windows for almost 6 years

ashen spindle
#

so yes people are buying TPM modules when its not needed, but nobody is buying a new pc for it

#

aka MS makes 0$ from having it not tell you what it needs for 11

astral haven
#

Anyone who bought a computer that is win 10 compatible is also won 11 compatible

wheat plume
astral haven
#

And uh
I'd you didn't, that's on you

pale sigil
#

Mine isn't either

astral haven
#

Did your laptop advertise win 10 compatibility?

wheat plume
#

Yes

#

It came with 10

astral haven
#

No

pale sigil
#

I think he means when it comes pre installed with 7

astral haven
#

I mean does it have the windows 10 compatible sticker

pale sigil
#

But advertises 10 compat

astral haven
#

Nope

#

There's a badge

wheat plume
#

idk man, I took the stickers off the next day I got it

astral haven
#

Usually it's on the product bix

pale sigil
#

The tramp stamps

wheat plume
#

xd

#

idk, it has an intel i7-7500U

#

which doesnt have TPM 2

astral haven
#

All of Skylake and above do...

wheat plume
#

O.o

astral haven
#

Disabled in bios?

wheat plume
#

I checked and couldnt find it

#

whats the option called on Dell bios?

astral haven
#

Dunno

ashen spindle
#

if it's an OEM pc they also already said there will be options to have windows images that don't need tpm2.0

astral haven
#

Secure boot?

wheat plume
#

Secure Boot != TPM

ashen spindle
#

so I could see that for any laptop that has some weird bios settings to get an update or get one of these images

astral haven
#

Secure boot does require a tpm yes

astral haven
wheat plume
#

I see "PTT Security"

#

Platform Trust Technology

#

Which is on by default

ashen spindle
#

well looks like it has what it needs then

wheat plume
#

might be 1.2 not 2

astral haven
#

What about software guard extensions?

#

Nope

#

Check windows security

wheat plume
#

I dont have windows on my laptop

I installed Windows 11 via Dev ring of the Insider program, used it for 2 days and went back to Linux

astral haven
#

If you installed it through dev ring it was officially supported

#

It doesn't let you install it without a tpm

wheat plume
#

The WIP settings told me my laptop isnt supported by 11, and I will be downgraded to 10 upon release of 11

#

and I can get dev builds until then

astral haven
#

Well no, that's not what it said

wheat plume
#

it did

#

I think I put a screenshot somewhere in here

astral haven
#

It said "You MAY be"
Not "You will be"

wheat plume
#

oh?

astral haven
#

It's a dumb cya strategy by Microsoft

#

They have a whitelist of cpus, if your CPU isn't on it you get that message

#

But there's nothing in the windows installer that checks what CPU you have lol

wheat plume
#

yeah, this list

#

My one isnt there

astral haven
#

This really only applies to oems tbh

#

Anyone manually installing can just ignore it

zenith sonnet
#

Memory talk and I missed it rooD

#

Damn dis bisch oild

zenith sonnet
#

I'm not sure if that is correct...

zenith sonnet
astral haven
#

At jdec and xmp?

zenith sonnet
#

I think this might be XMP, even though it says 2600 there

astral haven
#

There's something busted there since that's not 2600

zenith sonnet
#

Yeah, the data it reads is wrong

#

It's just vanilla XMP

#

On AGESA 1.1.0.0

astral haven
#

Yea so you probably need to update aida64

zenith sonnet
#

I downloaded a newer version

#

But that key I used is now blacklisted rooKek

astral haven
#

Oh rip lol

zenith sonnet
#

I hate this garbage

astral haven
#

Use a version that is between the two...

#

But yeah each cpu requires a different test to actually check latency

zenith sonnet
#

There's two inbetween versions. Lets see...

#

Latency went up 2.5ns because of downloads :p

astral haven
#

Well no

#

The latency of a test where it can't id your CPU does not count

#

It's like using Intel mlc on amd

#

Sure the test isn't incorrect but it also means nothing

zenith sonnet
#

Hmm

#

Works for 6.25, but not 6.30

#

6.25 doesn't recognise my CPU either

astral haven
#

I'm at work RN so I can't get you my aida64 copy

#

Which does work on a 5950x

zenith sonnet
#

Surprisingly

#

I get the same latency in 6.25 as in 6.33

#

But read/write/copy are higher, and L3 cache is way off

astral haven
#

L3 cache is extremely variable

zenith sonnet
#

Currently at F34b

#

That's... mildly promising?

Quick tech question: I am installing AIO in my system and am unsure if i can safely plug fans into a connector on my Mobo

My AIO has 2 fans and a splitter cable, so i can use one connector for them. My Mobo has something called W_PUMP+ connector that runs at 3x the voltage of normal fan connector (36V 3A as opposed to 12V 1A). Now, can i safely plug two fans in it? They would in theory receive 50% more of their regular voltage

astral haven
#

No

#

Pump is 12v

#

And no

#

Fans get connected in parallel

#

So the voltage to all fans on one connector is the same

harsh terrace
#

Pump is connected to AIO_PUMP at 12V 1A, i never asked about the pump

#

Only about splitting two fans

astral haven
#

W_pump is 12v

harsh terrace
#

According to my manual it is 36V

reef patrol
#

The real question is - What is the pump like?

astral haven
#

36w

reef patrol
#

Single cable? two cables? three?

Well, watts

Some AIOs has a single cable for the pump, and then separate one(s) for fans. Others use a single cable and an internal splitter.

The pump is Kraken X53 and uses 3pin header for 12W 1A connection

#

It also has a sata connection but that's for lighting i suppose

#

Fans are like regular chassis fans, both with a 4pin connector

#

Right ... so the X53 has a pump cable, Plug that into the WPUMP header.

#

Plug the fans into the CPU header.

#

SATA into SATA and USB into a USB2 header.

W_pump is really only needed for custom loops
A d5 does want more than an amp

#

Aio is fine

#

Though both the Mobo manual and the AIO manuals state that the pump must be connected to either AIO_PUMP or CPU_FAN

astral haven
#

That's what they say

#

Because you can't really control a pump through pwm

#

At least not PC ones

#

And Asus will certainly try

Aio is sufficient for an aio

#

WPUMP ... IS the AIO header ๐Ÿ˜„

astral haven
#

You can attach fans to the pump header with a splitter yes

reef patrol
#

... what? Literally what ๐Ÿ˜„

You need PWM on the fans.

#

The header supports pwm, it's just disabled by default
