None of the others run 1900if without wheas
Not sure. Gigabyte page does not say anything, but there is one pwm connector connected to sth on board going under vrm plate. Should be possible to disable, but may be too short to disconnect.
Z490 unify is the same price as b550...
And the z490i unify is a 2 dimmer
And also you don't need 2 dimmer on Intel since tabbed traces magic
It's just a nicety
There aren't any problems running 4400 on any z series 10th gen
Wish z590 master had smd ram slots instead of useless amount of VRMs.
Do not buy gigabyte for daily
Why? Already did too 
Oh
Welp you've already figured it out
But also booting is a pain
Hex values for random ram timings is also fun
For me it was not an issue. Mobo or cpu dying day one however…
Did not have that issue
Don’t think I managed to look into terts before it died 
@reef patrol
i'm still on 11.3, i've been too lazy to update. can't find a good way to update with screen closed or asleep and my internet slow
Smarter Shopping, Better Living! Aliexpress.com
what are the odds of me being fucked over
$150 sounds way too cheap for a good 1tb ssd
but considering it’s a proprietary connector i guess it could be true..?
$130 is the price of a 1tb nice SSD post chia
Pre chia it was $100/tb
For a older macbook that isnt bad
might be recycled
Alot of people unlock the 6900xts tho
And the power limit maximums are dangerous
But I really don't think it's power delivery I think it's transient thermals
Bz is right Nvidia does have a history of that
Hmm
I think that's what was spoken about earlier with at least the AMD cards. People disabling power limits
Supposed to - Which is why I find the lack of more concrete analysis frustrating.
If your CPU hits a panic temp, it throttles till it can't no more and then shuts down.
GPUs are supposed to follow this concept, and will throttle much earlier on a curve.
Idk why this reminds of the Poco f1's custom ROM community
A lot of custom ROM were found to be bragging about how their rom is the fastest at playing
Turns it it's because they had completely disabled thermal management and overclocked the GPU a little bit
Ending up cooking a lot of user's phones
There should also be hardware level thermal protection. Loads of ICs have a thermal shutoff circuit build in that just cuts the circuit when a critical threshold has been reached (typically around 150C). This prevents thermal runaway and setting itself on fire.
True temps are hard
And again true temps are hard
Hard or not, if it doesn't shut down before it dies, the protection is useless.
It's not like a CPU where you can even have a temperature sensor on every core
Much less on individual parts of a core
Then they need to set the threshold lower. Software should never be able to kill a graphics card, unless it is somehow purposely bypassing driver and kernel protections.
Physical phenomena based on temperature isn't. If the sensor hits certain criteria (like deforming due to thermal expansion differential, voltage measured across two different metals at one point).
You could easily make a workload that specifically fries a single core
That one core would be drawing a watt of power and dead gpu
I disagree - or we'd see it occasionally as an attack vector.
Why fry a gpu when you can instead mine on it
Because one removes competition without having the need for a supply chain.
Smh
I don't buy it.
You don't believe this do you
Temperature sensors cost fuck all and are trivial to implement. The PT100 and PT1000 tables are easy to find on the internet
Yes now get 10 thousand of them
You know by putting two differend metals together at one point you have a temperature sensor
Smh the hard part is the amplification circuitry
op-amp and 3 resistors?
Op amp
That's a physically large circuit in terms of die space
That's why GPUs only have 10s to a maximum of a hundred of them
Largest number anyone has admitted was 64
Ok pincus stop trolling
Do you want to actually learn what's going on here or are you just gonna spout nonsense?
You claimed the op amp is physically large and I have provided with a schematic with a functional opamp do your amplifying with
problem is that the gpus get hotter than even in synthetic benchmarks
idk wtf amazon games did to be able to achieve that
but yea normally they should just lower clocks until temps get normal again
but the protection seems to not have been made with the thermal output the cards are managing to pull off
other thing is that even with an open loop
the cards can get bricked
I'm onboard with that. My logic is that the protections should kick in at that point. Otherwise it's kind of false trust and... Well anything can brick a card at that point due to bad code.
You provided a schematic proving my point...
I would be interested in the temps of the open loops card
cause afaik atm we only know that they die
but not the temps
Ain't sacrificing mine lmao
do it

vrms overheating seems likely
well
as an error
not really with how the cards operate
If nothing else this has exploded into such a news story that nVidia, AMD and friends can't ignore it
yup
maybe they accidentally found an undocumented microcode instruction that breaks shit 
Somehow that wouldn't surprise me
Directx instruction I guess?
Crypto mining heavily stresses the whole GPU from top to bottom
not necessarily
Even if it somehow stressed ram more than mining, only 3070s and lower would be popcorning because g6x on 80 and above boosts
they can a: limit the rate based on the gpu
b: use some more obsucre currency
or c: just do their own calculations on the cards for other stuff
amazon makes most of their money not in e-commerce but in computing services
There are only a few algs used
You need to use some form of hashing alg, and there are very few which aren't broken
more of a unlikely random guess because I remembered the work people are doing on intel cpus to find undocumented instructions
Ye
Thing is tho I heavily suspect this game is just stressing some part of the core extremely heavily
No.
Cryptonight-GPU, for example, stresses the core and basically doesn’t touch memory.
One can trivially easily run both it and a game at the same time.
That's not true
thing is
they could just do any other calculation on there

with the amount of computing power they get it is essentially irrelevant how hard they kick each single gpus memory
since they not only get it for free
but also get paid for it
The only alg that makes money is hashing
It is true. Tested on 1060, 2x 1080, 2x 1080Ti, 14x 3070, and 2x 3080, heavily hits core, doesn’t touch mem much.
Can confirm 1080(ti) and all 3000 series can run both Cryptodredge and games.
not true at the scale of amazon
they can basiaclly do any kind of algorythm
and benefit off of that
especially since they get paid for the computing power
The system tray and clock keep dissapearing on the task bar if I dont have task manager open
so I just keep it open on the second desktop
its annoying ;-;
Thats why you dont use one
well they have to fund poor bezo's space trip somehow, maybe that's why they turned to distributed mining 
[citation needed]
How so? Basic logic.
If they can distribute compute they can, in theory, do whatever they want.
It still was consuming a crazy amount of bandwdith
Doubt they wouldnt be able to sell computing power
that they could do stupid stuff like optimizing algorythms
Not enough to impact anything other than 4k video native or something.
You can't sell alrogothmic power from client computers
they don't even have to sell it
You can
You literally can and do.
It was thrashing the imc...
you can sell any kind of computing power
That’s the entire purpose behind NiceHash.
Thats what cryptos do
They sell compute from single computers.
No that's hashing power
Fold@home project
I mean non hashing algorithms which is what you are arguing
Fold@home.
Mmmm.
That's also why it only works for very specific things and is intensely inefficient at it
AI is also hashing, everything is hashing now
And uhh, Cam. CNGPU doesn’t stress the mem all that much.
There’s a great reason we underclock mem as hard as we can when using CNGPU.
Isn't bottlenecked by and doesn't thrash are two entirely different statements
All the algorithms that are even remotely capable of using large enough amounts of power to popcorn GPUs use memory
That's the point of a gpu
High bandwidth
Yes, but CNGPU doesn't actually need a lot of memory bandwidth.
That's the entire point of CNGPU, it's designed to work on low bandwidth devices.
Now if you wanna talk Ethash or something then you're entirely right, but different algos do different things.
https://www.igorslab.de/en/evga-geforce-rtx-3090-vs-amazons-new-world-design-caused-evga-problem/ as expected, it seems to be the high uncapped menu fps to cause the generic shutdowns as they should, and the only bricking cards are evgas with a certain fan controller that is currently in the lab and they try to figure out why it's happening
I have an idea...
Firmware that's specifically coded to recognise synthetic benchmarks and throttle accordingly
Y tho although that also wouldn't surprise
Why don't they just have a on by default 1k FPS cap or something pepega
OW also has a dev team with experience and all that, amazon studios is a blank slate
Are they though? I figure they must have enough veterans employed.
I mean...
Also apparently they knew about this from earlier.
Don't uncap the menu FPS and push the GPU to it's breaking point?
Is that a veteran thing?
So... seems more like a "upper management" decision somewhere to speed up deployment for beta.
yea, having experience is not the same as having running settings/system set up already
and I doubt they uncapped it but rather just didn't add a cap?
be glad it's just the menu lol. been happening for years on the menu & ingame for BDO/PoE
BDO launcher whines louder than my ex
Why am I not surprised either of those games have that issue...
yeah its nothing new, it's just new that it shuts down cards 
But hey guys, think about it this way... esports menu FPS.
BDO is fine in-game
They should test EVGA 3090 on BDO launcher and PoE lol
doubt anything will happen
Ah yes. "Hey guys, mind throwing a $3000 card at potential danger for science?"
I can see that going great. :D
😄
if it's not causing other cards to terminate, it also shouldn't matter for the evga cards
since it seems to have issue when limit is hit, not lower limits
I mean isn't it specifically EVGA 3090's
it's only evga cards that "brick" but plenty others also get really hot and shut down
Fuck 60 FPS caps. At least do 500, we already have 360Hz displays
My EVGA gtx 780 bricked within a year too. I don't trust EVGA after that 😄
I don't mind fps caps in menus. Even better do 30 fps or something for power savings. Many ppl idle at menus anyway.
Bro why do you need 500 fps in the main menu 
Gotta make sure those 1% lows cap the monitor.
Personally, I'd be fine with 144 Hz, since my display can't do more
But I'd be pissed if I wouldn't get that in menus
But why
I'm running only 240hz atm, even if my monitor is capable of 280hz, because computer explodes running BDO 24/7 at 280 fps
idk why but 240fps to 280fps is big
You can run up to 360fps in the actual game
Lol, 144Hz is a massive upgrade to the desktop experience...
You should try a high refresh rate monitor some time...
The menu is just a screen for you to click play game
Or just enforce vsync in menus
In all seriousness, there've been studies on that and you see benefit doubling a monitors refresh rate.
And change settings, and whatever else you got
Like reading news
Also, why the hell do you not cap it yourself?
So, just leave the game uncapped?
Because higher FPS gives you better performance, if only a little.
But hey, ESPORTS EXTREME, GOTTA GET ALL OF THAT MARGINAL IMPROVEMENT.
If you push your GPU too hard you’ll just get massive input lag
Or CPU too hard rather
So going massively over your refresh rate and maxing out your CPU/GPU is going to be an overall worse experience
No.
Not really.
If you overstress the GPU and CPU, yes.
But otherwise there's benefit.
@neat oriole Nothing to do with pushing gpu too hard specifically, or cpu for that matter. Sure they're fucked if they're both 100% but the issue is technically if CPU renders a frame faster than GPU, it builds backpressure/buffers that are x frames long. Doesn't happen the other way around.
But only up to about double.
Just cap FPS 3 Hz below your VRR limit
Why 3 specifically?
I forget the specific number so I just cap it at my refresh rate
Arbitrary
Ah.
You can do 2, or 4 ...
Optane drive arriving soon, pretty excited
hope my 0,1 % and 0,01 % lows see improvement 😄
Whats AMD VRR range?
Depends on the display
Mine's 48-144Hz
With LFRC doubling frames between 24 and 47, to stay in range
Ahh I need to check what mine's capable then
You know what I miss? A software that can read and display how long the queue is.
So you know if you need to work on that, or if you're good, or if the game is fucked to begin with
@zenith sonnet I think AMD's default is 1 nowadays, but sometimes if the software notices hitches and stuff it adjusts it to 2. I think there's a regedit force-key. For Nvidia it's 3 by default, but setting low-latency mode to "On" forces it to 1
But yeah I wish games would show it
It would be really useful for finding when/where cpu boundedness switches to gpu-boundedness and the buffers start to build up
oo, I like this
Same :D

I knew Mansen would be intrigued :')
Have this through ICloud too, it’s quite Pog. Also can select it when registering to any app.
oo
Example of how some apps see my email address
The site lied to me
So let me get this straight?
Where do your emails get stored
If they don't store them
Locally?
Get a free, personal @duck.com email address. Emails sent to it will forward to your regular inbox, with creepy email trackers removed.
Idk about duck, but iCloud when through applied afaik. It’s quite Pog since it’s new email address for every app, and also synced.
You could also just render it in plain text instead.
you can just get a "new" email address by adding a random number of dots in random places

before the @ at least
Sure, but why would you do it manually when you don’t have to 
They lost me at downloading an app
In general I just don't load the images in mails I recieve
Think RTSS would be able to see and display it? It should, from my understanding
I just run vsync on windowed apps and have gysnc on for Fullscreen. No issues for over frame rates
The games I play it dosent matter lol
120hz is fine
RimWorld, coq and obvion won't even get there lol
https://tftcentral.co.uk/news/au-optronics-latest-panel-development-plans-july-2021 that last paragraph is nice, having a good VA screen in the size where Samsung is still using their older VA tech could be what I’m looking for
But it's 25 inch "class"
the evil microsoft is open sourcing???? has to be a trick!!
also steam getting ddos'd
year of vulkan doesn't instantly make it the year of linux fwiw
DirectX9 is nearly completely translated I think

mmmm
just what I like when I game
having that super cool corona effect with my lightsaber
/s
...
800p...30 fps
fuck off
this is 2021
not 2008
to be fair, that's still alright for mobile hardware, but....yeeesh
not too great overall
So the marketing needs to be more deceptive? Interresting demand
Pros
Dedicated controller
Actually portable
Con Smol screen
Smaller battery
Hot to hold
What? Since when is a 120hz cheaper than a 60hz panel
When more are manufactured and thus cost less in bulk?
Or when the price difference to manufacture / buy is less than the "value added" to customers?
Honestly I think the Steam deck is something I would use quite a bit.
It's a handheld gaming system running something pretty similar as my desktop in terms of software.
Battery is not great but enough for my commute / in bed / my use on vacation.
Price seems pretty good, of course at the price there are trade-offs but I would not use a gaming laptop in the same scenario's as this.
As for 120hz , I am pretty sure Valve is getting a off-the-shelve 1280x800 ips panel and considering the devices they are used in, they really don't come in 120hz / with vrr support right now.
This is the main factor in terms of cost. Sure if they knew it was going to be enough of a success to invest in a custom screen, but I don't think that is the case.
Even Nintendo went with an off-the-shelve screen for the Switch, it just doesn't make much sense to go the custom route here.
Going higher resolution would not be desirable due to the performance of the system.
no point in a 120hz screen if it's a recommendation to use 30fps for more battery lmao
they said it has all the hookups for VR but it wouldn't be recommended
120hz vrr...
Dunno if dosbox supports dxinput joystick, but that's all you need
The gyro can simulate a joystick or keeb inputs or mouse
vrr doesn't really make 120hz use less power
Either way if you want to hit $400 with the base model, you are not putting in a 120hz screen
It does...
It uses as much power as it refreshes at...
Ok so make it an upgrade?
sure, but even if it has 0 overhead(idk if it does), still chugs battery extremely fast if it's not at 120 all the time but dips to 80 or whatever
Not how vrr is supposed to work
Another thing is you would need a different display controller, dimensions may not be identical so different mold as well. only increasing the unit price.
you're telling me a 60hz screen uses more power than a VRR screen that varies between 80 and 120?
The main cost for ordering such a screen would be the initial cost, not the unit price per se. Mostly because no one else is using these lower resolution 120hz 7inch panels with vrr.
No a vrr capable panel running at 30 fps uses less power than a 60hz
And will be smoother
The reason smartphones get away with 120hz screens is economies of scale.
Except Samsung already makes em...
Sure they are higher res but that's easy to deal with in software
There are plenty of those
remember if they have the tooling they can keep producing them for quite some time as well

Its importing the ability to export
ah, intel q2 earnings today and IDM talk on monday, lets hope for once it's not containing any delays
what framerate is the video
So close to greatness, yet so far
So basically it'll always have 2 frames of 60hz regardless of ghosting...
resampling, brother
no i replied
I was considering getting a mini cooper for myself since parking in the city is a bitch and mileage is great on those
they're also pretty well priced used around where I am

that's how you save on fuel...they're also pretty light and small
shit, someone in 'sauga is selling a 2007 mini in stellar shape for 5.8k CAD
bro you don’t want a car that doesn’t accelerate
I never have to drive above 60 km per hour
so...shit dude, I don't need a fancy fuckin' car
you’d love these two lane roads here then
yep, recall that spans a seriously good chunk of years
ah...corrosion...
good news, certified pre-owned minis have that issue addressed at the dealership
uh...nah mate, I'm pretty tall and I want something that won't go flying in a small fender-bender
ew
that's just nasty

give me five
I gotta go puke
ok
I'm back
ffs Locke
no more disturbing shit like that again
you understand?
die in hell
I'm gonna fail to sleep with that burned into my eyesockets and haunting my every thought while I lie awake
thanks chief
Buddy ships parts for automation
and has 2 dudes that just weld skids for them
they dont even bother with wood
shipping is that bad on ltl
obviously a paid shill
Now that’s easily the most premium breakout board I’ve ever seen.
1600W of graphics card power supply. :D
I mean... 40FPS ain’t too bad for that.

15 minutes is enough to explain how to install and show you going through an installer
you mean
the thing you have to do with windows
with the biggest difference being how you flash your usb drive
yes
but 90% of windows users havent installed it cause its already on the computer, maybe its not that high but a majority still
True

god i fucking hate vs profiler
always a gamble whether it works or not
been stuck on 0% for 5 minutes :)
huh
impressive
never that that so far
gigantic project or what is clogging it up here?
it's 10k lines at best
hmm, lots of threading? weird compile flags?
2 threads, no
bad cpu? 
don't think so man..
i wish i could avoid profiler just by having a bad cpu and commenting out code, lol
I think I read something about VS22 improving upon the profiler, but I'm not certain which one it was
so maybe try the preview of it
idk, only know it is finally a 64bit application
maybe? I don't think they reall use copilot where intellicode works well like c++ and c#
Some things never change
linux distros on april fools should make it so every update or install of something needs a reboot

foxxo
can CLion compile linux builds on a windows machine via VM/WSL and offer debug options and also push a release direcktly to docker?
pro tip
if you want to pirate a font, search on github

ok this cascadia mono shit microsoft has defaulted is garbage
yeah just make sure to use the version without ligatures, idk how that can be the default option for coding
Ligatures are stupid
if I were to never use a different pc and never let anyone use mine, maybe, even then it's annoying sometimes
like gl knowing what part to click on a => arrow that is combined when you want to change it, or be confused when it's an arrow but the syntax looks weird then
for pure viewing, sure I think it looks nice
but not for working with it

ah it's loading symbols
horribly slowly
reeeeeally taking its time
holy shit codecvt performance is garbage
@misty saffron how many licenses have you destroyed hacking escape from tarkov
license for what? tarkov is free iirc?
Windows licenses
Tarkov ac is supposed to ban based on windows license
Just don’t activate windows lol
Not like it would ban people on not activated machines

licenses?
brother
if you mean windows licenses
you can either use my bypass
or just change the product key in registry
firacode
the font i like the most tbh
ah yes
everything is undefined
too compressed for me to like it I think
nice wdk bro
u know
i just upgraded to 10.0.20348.0
and it complains that it isnt installed
i see the problem

glad visual studio correctly fetches the latest version as .0
unless the vsi changes it still installs those by default when u install msvc
@misty saffron how do you even get banned
by getting banned
i speedran it too once
3 hours
killed the same people on labs 3-4 times
10 labs raids
so
i just for fun
thought i could clean up the libs i have installed for msvc
id gain 50gb
maybe installing everything vs has was
a bad idea
are you genuinely retarded bro
@misty saffron how many times have you been banned from tarkov
5
Rich boi

blood loss is no joke
wait the game is seriously not free to play?
u know whats free 2 play tho
they seriously could be
just the shock if the damage is bad enough will kill
oh, and the magic that is blood loss
not how that works, chief
I have never decided to get a stiffie after losing a limb to stem blood loss
🙄
because...there are better ways and a stiffie would help a tiny bit at best
or...just use something high caliber and slow moving, so that the bullet can stay intact and seriously fuck up whatever you shoot it at
even a shot to the torso would easily be lethal or at least seriously damaging
blood loss is a different thing in the game
i know
Very dependent where. Even in the liver it changes your chance to stay alive if you got hit in the left or right side
fire a bullet slow enough, and if it hits something hard, but not fast enough to shatter, it'll start spinning within the target
horrendous meat loss on the animal I shot at that time, but...still saved the tenderloins, the best part, and the one I always call dibs on
If you shoot in the head you want them to be supersonic atleast
more damage to the brain due to the breaking of the speedbarrier
...shots at vitals are more likely to hit and therefore kill or maim, I thought some finnish chad already figured that out fighting the soviets forever ago
even most field medics wouldn't be able to help that
that's just...death, most probably
I forgot the technical term for this, but your chest cavity starts to fill with air if a puncture goes through your chest and lungs
You need balloons to help inflate them. Which also install a metal mech to keep it inflated and not obstruct breathing
Pulmonary embolism
102 km/s fast enough?
340m/s is the speed of sound on average
funnily enough they take that into account in tarkov
you hear the bullet flying next to you quicker than you hear a gunshot
If you hear the bullet crackling through the air its supersonic
AS-VAL has subsonic ammo to counter that sound to be even more silent
does make it less able to mid to long range engagements. Bullets tend to tumble and fly off target
You need some special medical devices to do much to help it
Which other than combat field medics noone would be expected to have available
However hope there are not other wounded as triage would consider you too much work to possibly safe you
yep, especially with a lot of forces starting to or looking at reissuing cold war weapons in higher calibers than current issue rifles and a general focus on defeating body armour, I'd expect those kinds of injuries to happen a hell of a lot more
ffs, the US NGSW weapons program is looking at a 6.8mm round, and the designs submitted are pretty punchy ngl
Against armour you want as small caliber as one can get away with. less surface area means more pressure to puncture the armour
but not at the cost of less damage underneath
which is why low recoil (relatively) high velocity, basically full rifle caliber designs are being proposed
recoil is mostly how the gun is designed.
well, yes, but you can only take so many design liberties in an easily shoulder-able, reasonably accurate and reliable weapon system really meant for frontline troops
accuracy by volume 
😬
no
literally any force issued firearms (other than US police departments, it seems) are trained to be reasonably accurate, firing precision shots, not spray-and-pray
an-94 shot two rounds in one go. More bullets before the recoil kicked in
at the cost of 6x the ak-74 or something
¯_(ツ)_/¯
good channel, interesting insights and commentary
but that's from his eyes and his alone, and...he clearly isn't most cops
nah
I really have no issues with police
probably because I haven't done anything to attract their attention in a negative way
...cops would only be looking for me if I or someone around me did something wrong...and I take steps to ensure I, at least, never need to be brought in by cops
you're not all people doe
that was early 1800's US polititians beliefs that the USA should encompass all of north america (failed invasion of BNA)
I don't get how that makes any sense in the context, mate
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I ain't a depressed housewife
so...idk anything about it
ah...wow
sounds like a load of shit, ngl
sounds like a repeat of 2008
just without the banks cheering you on
and...you're traumatised by them
or at least bothered by books being sold cheering on denying reality
powerful enough to deny actual existence and substitute it with it's own fanciful version
that tends to only happen when the wires are crossed temporary, or just came crossed out of the box, so to speak
holy shit, if true, I aughta get my ass one ASAP

consoles? better viewing experiences?
We need 144hz TVs obviously. For 48fps movies xD
So, sort of AI frame rate increasment?
Like how people turn anime into 60Hz?
xd
🤔 This reeks of Clickbait
I'd say it's extremely obvious sarcasm but I guess that would technically count
hmm?
Tbh yea
If I had never experienced a 144 display I'd be several thousand dollars richer and alot happier about my monitor
several thousand
???? you spend that much on monitors?
144 laptop was expensive
it's actually true
I can't go below 75 hz now
it genuinely hurts to play on my old xbox one the rare times I do because the frame rate is so painfully low, but I was content with it less than a year ago, not knowing what better looked and felt like
it...ruined my perception of frame/refresh rate, completely
God, that's janky af
Not really. PC game got it's jump in the uk/eu on computers that were still pal
I think people still underestimate the Steam Deck APU
After the Xbox in first and PS5 in second place, is there any APU that's more powerful out there right now?
also people think its only for new aaa games
indie games and old games are steams bread and butter
which will do great on the deck
its gonna be slower than the base ps4 because of the anemic bandwidth too along with obviously the pro and xbonex
its also not faster than the vega m gl and gh which were pretty heavily panned for being slow in games
runs perfect
because half the frame rate you should be getting with given hardware, is perfect (metro exodus before native linux release)
fuck off
I mean its a newer gpu core than vega m
like much newer
Also the deck has unified memory, vega m had seperate hbm2
How much bandwidth does the base PS4 have?
The GPU cores are a hell of a lot newer though, and will do a lot more work with the same TFLOP on paper
170g
yes, "disco effect" "frame dips" "character faces are messed up"
gold rating
RE Village

I'm sorry, but no, not how that works, chief
Not how that works
It does work like that, though
ps4 has about the same memory thoughput
RE Village has plenty issues on Windows, though...
Gold is fair, imo
pretty sure ps4 base is 256bit 5500mt/s gddr5
Yes
...hard agree, after putting in about 25 hours over 3 runs
176 GB/s
serious frame dips during the fights with the daughters, those bug effects must really be a pain to render
Twice the bandwidth, but LPDDR5 is a newer standard, and has much lower latency and is much more flexible
Quad 32 bit channels
the diff between the old as fuck jaguar cpus in the ps4 and zen2 in the deck is huge
at literally 10% the power
that is the killer spec
S is gddr6 though
but yes the run the same gpu/cpu cores
just more of them clocked higher
Valve said they haven't found a single steam game yet that the deck can't run at at least 30 FPS average at 1280x800 res
And there's some poorly optimised shit out there...
tsmc literally cant loose
with super low settings for a lot of newer games, probably
zen2 having such good ipc is a lot of that
it has enough grunt to handle games with low clocks
CP77 low settings would probably run at around 50 FPS on the deck
cyberpunk, which I don't think anyone plays anymore anyway, would definitely be a low AF setting blurfest
leaves a lot of power budget for the gpu
It actually runs pretty damn well on low end hardware, surprisingly

why can't it run well on high end hardware...
Because they hate the rich
The issue with consoles was mostly the storage and texture streaming
Cp77 ran amazingly well for my
"fifteen FPS" says me
I beat it on an RTX 3070, 1080p maxed, but had to turn off RT with the latest update, performance is hella gimped
55 FPS average on mixed high settings, but buttery smooth
A smoothness that felt like I was playing a stable 144 FPS
Binning me system
Was amazing, honestly
would be a hell of a bonfire ngl
12/10 would attend
I coulda sworn cal had an RTX 3080
The thing about the deck that has me worried most is honestly the display
No hint at to what expect in terms of latency
Because not everyone has 500 to throw around or more
well, yes, but 833 quid is a lot for a card that should be under 600
wait...most people don't have a week or two of wages to just blow on a leisure device???
that's absolutely nuts
/s
cal...hold off on that 3080...I might trade you my 3070 and a few hundred canuckistani kopeks for it
scratch that
you could resell it for at least what you bought it for within the UK
or sell your entire system at profit and someone will most definitely buy it
it isn't if it has an RTX 3080 in it...
I know right, so cheap. Why not go with a 10k budget instead and sell like 10 devices. The Chief Financial Officer might tell its a financial mistake to sell it so high over the equilibrium of demand and supply but what they know? Go make some graphs or something lmao
...
I love the sarcasm
but I'd have you in a chokehold if I knew you weren't joking, Pinch
My mobo is cursed
My ram is cursed
Mobo just hasn't posted and I have to restore via USB firmware 5 times now since getting it
Ram is apparently running awful
Which would explain the stutter issues I face
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
does everything you touch instantly fail
Apparently so
I'm sure he has, that's literally all of product support other than RMAs
RMA has become a routine at this point
lol, how.
routine, but not like shaving and showering before going to the hospital
it's almost a ritual, a practice conducted regularly, consistently, almost with reverence

I dont even remember last time device failed on me. Even when fucking it up severely, it still ends up fine
windows won't install?
run linux
GF just left you?
run linux
car accident?
run linux
heart attack?
run linux
died?
run linux
Tell who what?
the solution to every conceivable problem is just...installing and running linux
/s
How bad your memory timings are?
Ye
No legs?
Run linux on the prosthetics. or you wont be able to run
Oh they garbage
Look at the trfc
Almost breaking 4 digits, with XMP on 
...
uh, Cal
boyo
have you checked with other kits to ensure that kit isn't defective?
No WHEA errors, so there's a good chance it's just ... slow
Like a turtle
but...he bought a binned kit, no?
you'd expect...the bin clockspeeds on the package, at least
binned as in trashed away 
no?
ur mum
idk, my brain went 5 year old for a hot second
Ur dad
I love my dad
he's pretty awesome
helped me with all that hard math homework when I was a kid
still helps me sort out all the hard shit in life that I struggle to do myself

Good. The plan is going exactly is planned. One day all parents will be good!
Not sure what that means, but XMP will still be whatever the manufacturer programmed
binned as in "selected for better die quality, clockspeeds, stability, etc."
I'm sure they do that with ram as well
not just CPUs and GPUs
No but I'm thinking of trying each ram individual
All RAM is binned
See if it makes a difference?
ye
Is thay a good way?
it's possible you just got a shitty ram kit installed
Yes, it is a good way
Ram is binned for consistency between the chips i believe
But keep in mind, your system will be slower with only 1 stick
identify trouble spots, determine if xyz is the issue, address if it is, otherwise move on
Then its obvious if one is defected
I might just do that now
at least with ram kits
Switch it around and check if the problem follows
...
wait
there are bad parents out there?
WTF
Brb, gotta find my USB drive and laptop
I thought QVL was "we paid good money to be on this list, now buy our ram"?
xD
yea...that really is a bit far fetched
I just find it a bit stupid, as the lists always seem pretty threadbare to me, ignoring most of the not so name brand ram kits
Looks to be there?
There are not a lot of manufacturers left in the world
Only works in sockets 1 and 2, though
Laptop acquired
🎉
F
post pic of unicorn barf svp
Sec
nice sleeved cables
Which makes sense

Gonna try single ram
It so white.. might want to watch it for imperialistic sentiment
Can someone do me a favor
...probably
Check what socket it should be in single
for...what motherboard?
Try them all
single slot, dimm 2
Ty
B2
So second slot
second from the left
My GPU not having support gives me anxiety
b2 fortress bomber. what you going to nuke now
ur mum
I removed it for testing purposes

if it's that your mum drank shroom tea instead of regular leaf water and is currently spazzing out on a rug talking about aliens, very cool but don't share
but...at least you're getting reasonable temps...or at least reported reasonable temps now
I got working ram 
You guys know the Pico?
the laser Pico?
Raspberry Pi.
I know of a picometer, picoliter, picogram
It's a neat little micro that has some programmable silicon. Half way between a CPLD/FPGA and a CPU.
Or you cursed it. but faulty ram is likely
Wait, TL;DR?
Hmm
What's going on?
Basically I was stuttering and @zenith sonnet asked for my sensors stats
He noticed my ram was working shit
Ah.
I'm not that into memory timings.
If I tighten any of mine up or increase the clock speed I need to clear CMOS.
XD
that sounds kinda nasty
Don't think so, but I'm on my phone and I have DDR3 so the timings will be different if you have DDR4.
