Trusted tho

[lusty hinge]

i figured it was greek

[nimble pasture]

Where should I buy from

[lusty hinge]

you tell me lol

i dont know any greek sites thats why i asked

[nimble pasture]

If I get from Amazon theyll charge 50€ transportation

[lusty hinge]

i wonder how eagle ax is priced

its kinda lacking but its usually pretty cheap

[nimble pasture]

150

[nimble pasture]

thanks

[lusty hinge]

eagle ax has wifi

[nimble pasture]

cant i just get an adapter

[lusty hinge]

both b650m pro rs and a620m pro rs have wifi variants for not much more

[nimble pasture]

👍

[lusty hinge]

yea

or use ethernet

[nimble pasture]

i qcant use ethernet

but ok

anyway gtg thank

[swift kestrel]

someone build a $2000 gaming pc thats the best of the best for me

[lusty hinge]

thats helpful

US?

what games?

[swift kestrel]

us

fps games (siege, val,) and mc stuff like that

[lusty hinge]

not sure why youd spend $2000 onn that

what resolution

i assume 4K?

[swift kestrel]

4k, asnd make it like 1500

and*

[lusty hinge]

is wifi needed

well

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/phC4t7 this is $1590

[grave cipher]

get him a z790 smh

he needs to do le epic tweaking

[lusty hinge]

im too lazy

open box z690 where

just freak the cpu tweaking actually

switch the PSU and push 1000w into the XTX

[grave cipher]

tbf you could

[lusty hinge]

you could

[grave cipher]

that thing is rather power inefficient after like 450 -500w iirc

it just eats Watts after that for like no perf

[lusty hinge]

horribly inefficient

[grave cipher]

"yea ill take 1000W" gives 5% perf over 500w

[lusty hinge]

this just means we need to give it even more power

maybe theres a hidden gold mine

[grave cipher]

what after a certain threshold it gets good and scales super well?

maybe at 2000w if the wiring doesnt rip in half like paper

[lusty hinge]

yeah you never know

2100w it just gets like

a 10000% uplift

[grave cipher]

yea 8090

novideo stock dies overnight

they either become amd or die outright

[lusty hinge]

youll never beat the intel+nvidia shills underneath random tech posts

"amd has released a new gpu which is 200% better than the 4090"

"yeah but intel+nvidia combo goated"

[grave cipher]

heyyy dont talk bad about me

its very goated

[lusty hinge]

😭

[grave cipher]

me and my bintel and novideo

[lusty hinge]

i forgot a major part

they always go on about drivers as if its still 2015

[grave cipher]

hey at least i dont get random driver timeouts though

lol

[lusty hinge]

the newest amd drivers are broke iirc

[grave cipher]

yea basically the same for novideo at this point

driver qc fell off a cliff

[lusty hinge]

im on month old drivers rn

[grave cipher]

luckily if i update its always a driver that actually works

[grave cipher]

does it crash? no? ship it

[lusty hinge]

😎

[grave cipher]

tbf amd has gotten pretty good with drivers that arent new

I'd argue that if RT was good as well then a lot of people would switch

[lusty hinge]

if RT was good and they could convince people that this isnt the rx 5000 series

apparently next gen is supposed to be good for RT but idk

ill just wait for benchmarks

[grave cipher]

from what ive heard

8000 is just a refresh

so much so they dont even intend on competing in the high end

and 9000 is a rework

kinda like zen for amd cpus

[lusty hinge]

hmmm

interesting

let me call lisa su

[grave cipher]

something i discovered the other day

is that jenson and lisa are relatives

[lusty hinge]

did you not know?

[grave cipher]

no

[lusty hinge]

they are indeed relatives its pretty cool

[grave cipher]

must be awkard family gatherings though

[lusty hinge]

yeah i bet

[grave cipher]

you literally see you're companies main rival

only*

[lusty hinge]

yeah arc cards arent competing yet

battlemage was supposedly going to be good

but god knows whats going on with that

dont they help eachother out sometimes though

i read somewhere that nvidia helped amd with rt bug fixes and whatnot

[grave cipher]

i imagine if the above is true Arc may very well eat into the amd audience

[lusty hinge]

i could see it happening

[grave cipher]

the hardware came on pretty strong for first gen Dgpus

just software sucked

[lusty hinge]

https://www.notebookcheck.net/Arc-Battlemage-leak-Intel-to-cancel-Arc-Celestial-desktop-GPUs-if-Battlemage-fails.907774.0.html

cant be bothered to look at what the source is

the gpus are great

A310 especially if you like cheap encoders

its so cheap yet so good for encoding

[grave cipher]

nah they wont cancel arc not yet

the shareholders will expect it not to do well for a couple gens

since that time is just gaining a foothold in the gpu industry

[lusty hinge]

if they dont release battlemage soon maybe i will start praying on their downfall

[grave cipher]

they'll release it around the time 5000 is being released

or when amd drops 8000

they have to play the low end to gain any foothold

high end gamers are novideo users

since novideo offers the highest performance

mid end all go amd typically

[lusty hinge]

i hate novideo

i had to buy a 4080S instead of an XTX im gonna jump

[nimble pasture]

4080s is better bru

[lusty hinge]

not in raster

the 7900XTX is better in raster

[nimble pasture]

What's raster

[lusty hinge]

performance

pure perf

[grave cipher]

nah your tripping if you think xtx is better than 4080/S

the xtx can "beat" it in select titles

but its only by single digit percentages

the support around the 4080 makes it the better value card

[fleet spade]

Can you guys rate my prebuilt the specs are a I7 14700k and a rtx 4060 gigabyte

[lusty hinge]

i dont

the 4080 is the objectively better choice if you ask me, especially if theyre similar in prcie

dlss, better rt, lovelace efficiency and yada yada

the better gpu is a 4090 anyway

ims o funny

[grave cipher]

buys 4080S, wants to toaster bath because not inferior XTX card

clearly thinks XTX superiority

or at least one would assume

[lusty hinge]

i was just playing

originally i was gonna get the XTX because i saw it on a huge discount literally less than 24 hours before i bought everything

the white taichi one specifically

but then when i bought everythiing iit was full price so i was like

why wouldnt i get the cheaper 4080S lol

[late river]

I don't have one

[nimble pasture]

4060 is too low for a 14700k

[quick birch]

Change up your CPU for AMD and get something better for GPU

4060 is tragic

[lusty hinge]

just saw this

its peak

[quick birch]

Can somone help in #💬-general

[nimble pasture]

Is anyone in techsource server

[lusty hinge]

no why

[calm geyser]

So weird thing I put in a 2nd GPU into my PC. Now my headphones are making a loud popping noise. I removed the GPU and the popping stopped, but now im trying to figure out how and why this is happening.

[grave cipher]

amd?

[calm geyser]

Nvidia

[grave cipher]

i meant cpu

[calm geyser]

Oh.

Intel i7-14700K

[grave cipher]

what board?

[calm geyser]

MSI PRO Z690-A DDR4. I'm thinking it's the board not able to handle 2 GPU's of this power

[grave cipher]

its probably some weird issue with the chipset or Emi

i doubt the msi engineers intended for that board to be used for multi gpu

[calm geyser]

True, well at least that narrows it down heavily. Thanks.

I tried anyways xD

[grave cipher]

if you have an audio card lying around you could throw one of them in

[calm geyser]

Sadly i don't.

I may try that at some point if that will help

[grave cipher]

could also switch the gpus around

ive heard about all sorts of issues with gpu affecting stuff not related to them at all

[calm geyser]

Yea i already hate going into the IT field but i love it the same xD

But, i'll try this stuff after i fix the flat on my truck

Thanks dood.

[grave cipher]

yea let me know how it goes

[calm geyser]

Oh, is a 600W Power supply enough for the 2 Gpu's if it ends up not being the motherboard for whatever reason

[grave cipher]

it depends on the entire config

[grave cipher]

but generally probably not

I'm about to upgrade from a ryzen 5 3600 to a ryzen 7 5800x

anything I should be concerned about before I drop it in the socket?

mb is b450M-A 2

[lusty hinge]

likely not.
especially likely not considering most people dont own good 600w psus.

[lusty hinge]

yeah, not getting a 5800x

youre getting it because of its "sale" i bet

just get a 5600 or a 5700x3d if youre gaming

all 3 cpus will need a bios update to support them

are you allergic to "i"

idk see if keychron has something they usually have stuff

[static steeple]

ceyboard brocen, ceychrone dont got r1ght

[lusty hinge]

"keychron"

i also wouldn't buy from ceychrone

Hi guys I need help

Someone know how charge the headset arctis 7plus wireless

[eternal moon]

USB-C

[opaque moon]

I don't really need built in graphics and I also wanted it for the boost

[grave cipher]

Neither have an igpu and clock speed isn't that relevant for games

On X3D at least

[lusty hinge]

exactly??? lol

a 5600 or a 5700x3d will be a better pick over a 5800x

[pearl eagle]

Question which is better bang for buck? RX 7600XT or the 4070 variants? Asking for my homeboy that wants to upgrade his graphics card.

[grave cipher]

does he care about RT and Dlss?

[pearl eagle]

He does not care for DLSS nor RT

[lusty hinge]

7600XT is awful

[pearl eagle]

I'm all ears for suggestions. FYI not for me.

[lusty hinge]

how much money is being spent

[pearl eagle]

no more than $500

[lusty hinge]

7900 GRE or something

7800XT

[pearl eagle]

He's using my previous 2060 I had for 3 years

[grave cipher]

6950xt's go for about $500 second hand

if hes not concerned with where it comes from

[lusty hinge]

mmm transients

[grave cipher]

transient this transient that

[lusty hinge]

youd have to check what cpu and psu youve got if youre doing that silly thing

[pearl eagle]

I have to check his build

I will say I regret getting the 13900k back in 2022 but never regretted the 4090

[grave cipher]

13900k good if not normie

if normie 13900k not so good

[pearl eagle]

Not normie

[grave cipher]

if regret is true then normie = yes

[pearl eagle]

It's all the problems the recent i9's had

[grave cipher]

when i say not normie i mean never running stock ever

if you ran static then you never had el degrado

unless oxidisation if unlucky

[pearl eagle]

Knock on wood, no problems thus far

But I will check my homeboy's build. I know he's rocking AMD for the processor and the old 2060 I gave him. The biggest complaint he has was the memory size

He want's more than 8 GB

[grave cipher]

then fuck upgrading the gpu

if hes page filing everything he boots up

[pearl eagle]

His GPU only has 8GB. He has 4 TB of disk space

Don't ask me why he just does

[grave cipher]

i assumed this was system memory

not gpu mem

[pearl eagle]

Trust me I said the same thing when he was explaining things to me

Also you are the same person who helped another friend of mine when his SSD came close to frying itself

long story

[grave cipher]

no

[pearl eagle]

I'll give him the above suggestions as well. Thanks y'all.

APEX PRO TKL WIRELESS Gen Unable to install firmware...

[lusty hinge]

end steelseries gg in task manager
unplug your keyboard and hold down both media keys

whilst holding down both media keys plug the keyboard back in

when opening gg it should pop up about a reset or something

[dim ridge]

media keys ?

[lusty hinge]

the scroll wheel and the little button underneath

hmm

i have no idea then

have you tried #1047622297382567936 ?
or you can contact steelseries directly using #official-support

[dim ridge]

Is there something wrong with the keyboard hardware?

[lusty hinge]

i doubt it. i imagine its an issue with the software.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/8j4KJy

[lusty hinge]

what about it

it seems pretty meh

[fierce isle]

Hello im bulding new pc, im new in this. Can someone help me and tell me is it good? What can i buy better or something like this.

https://www.x-kom.pl/lista/aehtbmkhy

[sand moon]

help me pkls

pls

[misty crypt]

Sprawdź czy płyta obsługuje ram 5600mhz

[fierce isle]

obsługuje ale bardziej chodzi mi stosunek do ceny do wydajnosci itp

bo rozmiarowo itp wszystko pasuje

pp nie wiem na co patrzec przy wyborze tych komponentów, dobieram te które mają wysokie liczby xd

[grave cipher]

you dont need a 240 rad or contact plate or 700 series board for that cpu

the memory is also bad, as in not hynix

go for 6000 cl 30/32 38 38

[nimble pasture]

What would u change then

[grave cipher]

the only justification for it all is if its on sale, but even on sale its probably still not the best choice

you should be using pc part picker for finding the best deals for parts

[fierce isle]

thanks bro

[lusty hinge]

well whats it for? gaming?

[nimble pasture]

Mainly

Not getting it anytime soon btw

[lusty hinge]

god. dont tell me you were planning on using a 4tb hdd for games?

[nimble pasture]

Uh

I'll change that

[lusty hinge]

dont bother with a parts list now then

plan one when youre buying

[nimble pasture]

Ok

[lusty hinge]

prices and availability change

[nimble pasture]

Yeah I know

Btw

Instead of that 4tb hdd

What should I use

For games

[lusty hinge]

an m.2 pcie ssd lol

[nimble pasture]

Ah

They're more expensive tho

I couldn't find a 4tb one for less than 200

[lusty hinge]

when youre throwing money into a burning flame, yea

[nimble pasture]

The power supply is 120

[lusty hinge]

whats your point

its stupid

[nimble pasture]

The rest is just

[lusty hinge]

i dont see why youd get a 1000w psu for those parts, let alone a UD-GM

[nimble pasture]

What's the difference of a ud gm

[lusty hinge]

difference compared to what

[nimble pasture]

To a non ud gm

[lusty hinge]

what non udgm

do you know how many 1000w psus there are

[nimble pasture]

Yes

[lusty hinge]

so what one are you trying to compare it to

[nimble pasture]

Nevermind

The 7700x isn't bad

[lusty hinge]

i never said it was

its horrendous value

[nimble pasture]

What I suggest

[lusty hinge]

it gets gapped by a cheaper 14600KF lol

[nimble pasture]

12700k?

[lusty hinge]

you could always just get a 7600

no idea why youd get a 7700x

[nimble pasture]

Yeah now that I think about it I could improve some stuff

[nimble pasture]

What about the 12700k it's about 60 less € here

[lusty hinge]

what country are you in

that US pcpp list is double irrelevant

its not even your prices or availability

[nimble pasture]

Greece

[nimble pasture]

I know I checked

I didn't use the exact parts for ram and power supply

Just some with the same specs and similar price

[lusty hinge]

same specs lol

do you know whats inside that PSU?

[nimble pasture]

Same speeds and wattage

[lusty hinge]

do you know whats inside the RAM?

[lusty hinge]

these are just numbers

[nimble pasture]

Nah not exactly

[nimble pasture]

Ok yes anyway

What should I use instead of the 7700x

[lusty hinge]

nothing. plan again when youre buying.

[nimble pasture]

Ok thanks

[lusty hinge]

although now i have an itch to change iit

so bare wtih

[nimble pasture]

Ok

See you

Good night

Or good day

and all around the price of £500

[lusty hinge]

fair play for knowing laptops

[rose bough]

And Netflix and other streaming, yeah

[rose bough]

$500, I'm American. (Not correcting you, just letting you know the currency since conversion rate)

[grave cipher]

more just cpus and basic electrics, all laptops nowadays are pretty similar. SSDs, modular batteries and a fair amount of IO are all standard, Usb C charging is also becoming the new standard as per the EU regulation that wants all electronics to use the same universal charging adaptor

why apple has also gone Usb C for the newer products

[cyan flint]

So I built my first pc. Was wondering if you could just maybe let ke know if it's good, bad, trash. Also seems slow for what it has
So it has a Ryzen 9 7950 3d cashe cpu, on a Asus rog strix b650e-f hero motherboard, 4 ddr5 32gb ram cards. In each of the m.2 slots I have, the Samsung pro 1tb ssd, so 3 oth those total, I have aAsus Hyper Gen 4 PCIe card with 4 expansion m.2 slot all filled with Samsung pro 1 tb ssd, Asus Xonar sound card, GPU is a XTX 310 Merc speedster with 24gb. Then a 18tb HDD. I thought it was a grwa5 build just seems slow

[grave cipher]

what do you mean by slow

low fps? long loading times? long compile times?
@cyan flint

[lusty hinge]

lmfao what the hell

why so many samsung 1tb drives

have you considered buying cheaper, equally as good, if not better drives?

could probably get 4tb with all those 1tb

4x8 ddr5 is pretty rough

i wouldnt be surprised if you think its slow because youve used that HDD for everything

[grave cipher]

He means 4x32 which is probably worse

At least 4x8 isn't bad for performance

[lusty hinge]

ughhh youre right

i read it as 4x8 = 32

i reckon this is someone who just bought the big $$ and brands

i need help with ram

i was thinking to buy more ram, i have currently ddr5 16 GB (2, 8BG) 4800, can i buy 2 more ddr5 32 GB (2, 16GB) 4800 or will it make my old ones useless, i heard that ram should be the same specs and from the same company

[lusty hinge]

you should be completely replacing them

2x8 ddr5 is e-waste

not sure why youre being 2x16 4800

thats jedec

[grave cipher]

You want 48? 2x24

[ripe summit]

no i was thinking 2x16

[ripe summit]

becuase thats my pc max

[lusty hinge]

are you.. sure?

[grave cipher]

hes not

[grave cipher]

what platform are you on?

[ripe summit]

platform?

[lusty hinge]

you dont want to mix ram like this anyway, just run a single kit in dual channel

enjoy the awful diagram

[grave cipher]

cpu and board

[ripe summit]

both max are 128 GB 4800mhz

[lusty hinge]

what cpu and board do you have

[grave cipher]

the max is irrelevant since your not maxing it out

which means more mhz

which then means more fps

its a b660 chipset and that by default has mem oc

[ripe summit]

Fr? Because on the specs sheet it said Max is 4800 and if I had more they will just cap it

[pastel beacon]

still gets the point across

[lusty hinge]

exactly

[grave cipher]

find out, higher speed ram isnt exactly a whole lot more expensive, infact its probably the same price for like a kit of 5600 as it is for 4800

Especially if you intend on sticking a 9800X3D in it and playing games

and.. why?

i think the funniest part of it

is the awful peripherals

but its fine, we know youre not buying this.

[old vector]

Umm actually I will

[lusty hinge]

of course.

[old vector]

I didnt put all this time in to find them to just not buy it

[lusty hinge]

youre buying a threadripper for gaming.

tbf intels ER does go to 8593

so they win based on bigger number better

[lusty hinge]

this is where bigger number better gets complicated

bigger number better but amd better for gaming

and intel blows up

wait this isnt even bigger number better cuz 9800X3D exists.
unless we're also taking into account bigger name better too

nah bios rev doesnt do that

it'll boot but only run base clock

i reckon there was a hammer involved in the install process

[grave cipher]

yea how do you manage to physically damage the socket, jam the cpu in somehow and then boot it without going "maybe i did it wrong"

[lusty hinge]

because why on earth is it ever our fault? its always the manufacturer

yea, one of the first places i checked to see if that was legit or not

I dunno whether you've seen the reports of dlvr bypass mode being disabled for the ultras

but it seems to be about in places

I asked seby and he said that he could still do it on his board with the new microcode

same thing really as the explody 9800

[lusty hinge]

i have not seen this

[grave cipher]

skatterbencher reported on it as well

anyone face sound issue after the latest update 75.0 ??

[opaque moon]

can anybody recommend a good white AMD gpu? I have a ryzen 7 5800x

[grizzled ravine]

7700x

[lusty hinge]

why would anyone tell you anything other than the 7900XTX Taichi

[quick birch]

Overkill

And also the CPU would bottleneck the GPU

[lusty hinge]

lol

[quick birch]

7800 XT or 7900 XT

[lusty hinge]

lol

[opaque moon]

steel legend?

[opaque moon]

ill do a monster like that after i switch to am5

[zinc forum]

I schoud buy RX 7900xtx or new 8000gen

[lusty hinge]

amd supposedly isnt going to go for a new flafship

i would wait

[lusty hinge]

any of the 7700XT.
although no idea why that was the recommendation.

what resolution are you gaming at? whats your budget? what country?

[zinc forum]

Poland budget no problem i will colect money from birthday and other res 1440p 1080p 4k

[lusty hinge]

youre playing all 3 resolutions?

if youre playing 4K then yeah, XTX.

considering what was said earlier, a bottleneck isnt a concern. you will always bottleneck.

or you could go 4080S

[zinc forum]

Most 1080p

[lusty hinge]

1080p?

6750xt is cheap

[zinc forum]

I think about it even have TAB on oper

[lusty hinge]

yeah its a solid card

[pastel wyvern]

I got a 6700 XT for my 1440p wide monitor lmao

[lusty hinge]

nice

[pastel wyvern]

decent for most games, but definitely you might wanna crack at the 6800xt if you've got the money

graphically taxing games like cyberpunk and MWII run at a decent 80-90fps

[opaque moon]

1440p, around $400, and USA

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/7WWJ7P/xfx-speedster-swft-210-core-radeon-rx-7800-xt-16-gb-video-card-rx-78tswftfp if you can spend $30 more

otherwise new 7700xt, used 6800/XT
you can just pick the cheapest 7700xt

[opaque moon]

thanks

is there a white model of that

[lusty hinge]

of the 7800xt? yeah. they exist. they cost more though

[opaque moon]

yea ill probably get that one or a white 7700xt

if I want to upgrade my ram and dont mind paying the extra cost, should I dump the current ram sticks I have (2x8) for 2 (2x16) with better speeds or should I just buy the same ram sticks I currently have

[lusty hinge]

what about it

i mean, it sucks. but what about it.

[lusty hinge]

[quartz fern]

more storage

[lusty hinge]

thats your only issue with it

not the awful ram configuration or anything

Cpu is good though

Gpu is okay

Which also with my infinite foresight tells me it's an hp prebuilt

[lusty hinge]

[upper shuttle]

Does someone maybe know what a good cpu cooler is now?

[red parrot]

Corsair a115, Noctua NH-D15 CPU Cooler, Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE, these are really good

Most cpu coolers will be fine

If you want to overclock your cpu, then depending on your case you can get yourself an aio

There are some pretty good ones available from ekwb or corsair

Should you want to change fans tho, again any fans will do the job but if you want more optimised fans with high performance, anything from like noctua, lian li is good

[lusty hinge]

what cpu? what country?

[lusty hinge]

wtf

are you in 2018

lian li doesnt even have any good competing fans which i think is the funniest part of this

the only good fans they have dont even have rgb which is why most people choose lian li

[upper shuttle]

amd ryzsn 5600 - the netherlands

[lusty hinge]

the stock cooler it comes with should be fine. is noise a concern to you?

[upper shuttle]

no not really

[lusty hinge]

i wouldnt personally buy a new cooler if noise is not a bother. if youre looking to get a cooler just for looks of a tower or something, i would look into a cheap single tower such as this one - https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/product/khJp99/thermalright-assassin-spirit-120-evo-dark-704-cfm-cpu-cooler-as120-evo-dark-d6-de

[upper shuttle]

okay good to know thanks

[grave cipher]

you cant compare products that aren't even in the same price class. a115 is generally bad for the pricing and the NH 15 is just way too overpriced. the assassin is the universal best in class here.

motherboards

just go for whatever you think looks coolest tbh

if you buy the ram kit thats got a 6400 XMP youll default to 1:2 which is worse than 6000 1:1

so youll either need to manually change it to 1:1 and hope it works, which it probably will, or just use a different xmp profile

Gaming Plus is probably the worst board there, its just an aesthetic reskin of the B650-S. but

[pulsar fossil]

Awesome, thanks

I'll give it a look

[lusty hinge]

yeah literally any option there works

just take a look at the rear io and the m.2 slots and optionally how the board looks and decide what one you want

Hey qq I just got most of the parts for my PC and realized I need(want) and activated windows version,is it really worth the 140€?

[grave cipher]

le epic pirate

[lusty hinge]

as per windows EULA and ToS, you can use it unactivated for "evaluation purposes" as long as you arent using it professionally and use it only for the evaluation period. however, they also do not state how long this evaluation period is... so.. you can use it unactivated indefinitely.

if you plan on using a grey market store (online stores that sell codes for suspiciously cheap) i would advise against it. theyre built on fraud and theft. you dont want to be a victim of credit card theft either!

speedus option is great.

[wise gale]

Thx for the advice,iirc there is a way to get rid of the water mark so I guess I'll just do that

[worldly rock]

@lusty hinge do you think paying like 50 euro more to get 7600X over 7500F is worth it?

[lusty hinge]

7500f has no warranty and can potentially take a long time to ship

7600/x has warranty and typically doesnt take long to arrive

[worldly rock]

what

i have it in my local store

and says it has 3 year

warranty

[lusty hinge]

ah awesome

i mean go for it then ig

7500f has no igpu

[worldly rock]

ik

why would i need it

[lusty hinge]

dont forget more betterer clocks

we love clocks in this chat

all the clocks

[lusty hinge]

yeah its like 3% better oob on avegerageegegege which means theres 300000000 more clocks

[grave cipher]

3% better on stock = 9% betterer on oc

but thats if you do pbo tuning

more cooler more clockier

[lusty hinge]

[calm grotto]

my friend built a pc but after setting up everything the ethernet is not being detected

is this the right channel to ask this type of question?

[lusty hinge]

tried a different cable?

does the ethernet cable work on a different device?

[calm grotto]

he said he checked the cable it works
hold on ill invite him to the server to give more detail

[grave cipher]

probably missing the ethernet driver

thats the most common issue with stuff like that

[wicked ermine]

to be honest i wont go for the 7500f and go for the 7600x instead, it is not only 3%, it is up to 10% -15% more fps in most games. But if you want to upgrade in the near future then go with the 7500f.

[lusty hinge]

why not 7600

whats the price difference

also, 15% difference?

where the hell did that come from?

@wicked ermine whats the source for 15% difference?

[wicked ermine]

you can google it easy sources everywhere

[lusty hinge]

thats not a source

...i didnt want to share my sources anyway...

the 7500f is just a poor bin 7600, with it just having a defunct IGPU

[wicked ermine]

and less l1 and l2 cache but okey

and when i mean less then by x5/x6

[lusty hinge]

the gaming difference is negligible with it commonly being sub 5%😊

but i dont like it anyway

you cant obtain it in majority of countries without giving up warranty

[wicked ermine]

https://www.hardwaredealz.com/produktvergleich/amd-ryzen-5-7600x-vs-amd-ryzen-5-7500f

https://technical.city/de/cpu/Ryzen-5-7600X-vs-Ryzen-5-7500F

and you will face different problems with the 7500f as such less support for feautures

[lusty hinge]

im not denying the credibility of these sources but you realise they do not show what you said

they both show 5%

which is what i said

lol

[wicked ermine]

they do first go and look at hardware deals up to 10% and more

in most scenarios and games it is up to 10%

[lusty hinge]

?

?

[wicked ermine]

and now go and take a look at the games over all

[lusty hinge]

im not even sure how reliable these sites are in the first place but these quite literally do not show 15%

[wicked ermine]

charts are good but if you do not take the time to look waht kind of games benefit from it then it is pointless to mention charts anyways

[lusty hinge]

relative performance charts are handy

[wicked ermine]

because one game they are equal other 10 games they are 10% apart makes the cpu 8% slower

2 games out of 10 is like 6% faster

[lusty hinge]

i wonder if gamers nexus has any benchmarks with the 7500f

[wicked ermine]

for sure with a rtx 4090

[lusty hinge]

why would you not test with the best gpu?

[wicked ermine]

but reality is that someone who buys a 7500f is not using a 4090

[lusty hinge]

no, of course not.

[wicked ermine]

because this are not the real scenarios

[lusty hinge]

you realise this means the performance difference is even smaller?

[wicked ermine]

they are not smaller

[lusty hinge]

of course they are.

[wicked ermine]

ok for excample

go and test a 4060 with this two cpu's

[lusty hinge]

im confused as to why you would do that

[wicked ermine]

i wounder what cpu will deliver better performance because the GPU itself is just 8 pcie and a low bus

[lusty hinge]

could you explain your reasoning on why i should do that?

[wicked ermine]

why ? because this are both entry level hardware

nobody is buying a entry level cpu with a GPU that cost 2-3x the amount of the entire PC itself

[lusty hinge]

i mean, plenty of people do. but that makes no sense.

[wicked ermine]

i dont know one person who bought a 7500f with a 4090

[lusty hinge]

if youre trying to benchmark a CPU youd try to reduce the GPU being the limiting factor, which is easily done by using a 4090 at 1080p

no one is saying the average user is using a 4090

but these benchmarks are done specifically to show the difference between the CPUs

[wicked ermine]

and gamer nexus mentioned it already what i told you

that the real benchmarks are more esential then the ones with the best gpu/cpu you can buy

[lusty hinge]

the.. gamers nexus ones are real benchmarks?

[wicked ermine]

but they dont have the time to do every benchmark for every hardware

[lusty hinge]

theyre purposefully using top end hardware to eliminate the GPU being the limiting factor

they are not doing it to suggest users are buying a 4090

its done to exaggerate and show off the difference between the CPUs

not between the CPUs being GPU limited

[wicked ermine]

so and now to give you a good understanding

why real benchmark test's needed

[lusty hinge]

they.. are real benchmarks.

[wicked ermine]

a Rx 7800xt will be hardcore bottlenecked by a 7500f

[lusty hinge]

im not a fan of the term bottleneck.

[wicked ermine]

and i am a big fan of it

[lusty hinge]

a 7500f could easily be "bottlenecked" by a 7800XT.

a bottleneck is something you cannot avoid

[wicked ermine]

if your gpu is used 50% meanwhile you just wasted money there for the CPU or GPU

[lusty hinge]

your GPU can be at 10% util and other times at 100% util

it varies

[wicked ermine]

you can avoide easy Bottlenecks

[lusty hinge]

it depends on what youre doing

you straight up cannot avoid a bottleneck

its impossible

"bottleneck" is the silly term that is used to explain why you cannot get infinite performance.

[wicked ermine]

if people listen to you they can not avoide bottlenecks yes

[lusty hinge]

there is always a limiting factor.

[wicked ermine]

because you mention them to buy the worse product and then they have no Future Proof upgrade for the GPU

[lusty hinge]

future proof is silly

you cant future proof things

its not possible

[wicked ermine]

you can

[lusty hinge]

better hardware will always exist

the only things you can reasonably future proof is a PSU, by buying one that is stupidly overkill for your hardware in case you want to upgrade.

[wicked ermine]

and no again wrong

psu works best at a specific usage

[lusty hinge]

efficiency? yes/

[wicked ermine]

between 65% and 80%

[lusty hinge]

but thats not what i was saying

please re-read what i was saying

i was not on about how to use a PSU efficiently

[wicked ermine]

a Normal PC is doing for like 5 years a good job and by that time you will swap the PSU for sure

because who know's what Nvidia comes along or even if AMD swap to 12p connectors

[lusty hinge]

AMD already has GPUs that use the 12+4 12VHPWR connection.

[wicked ermine]

never saw them

and i had basicly all Rx 7000 cards

same count for Benchmarks as you told before

you know my Rx 7900xtx is boosting up to 2900 Mhz

out of the box

[wicked ermine]

and eating up to 400 watts ?

[lusty hinge]

i have no idea what this has to do with anything

there are 7900 XT and 7900 XTX models that use the 12+4 12VHPWR

[wicked ermine]

so why you mixing up things then this card you mention is a experimentel card

[lusty hinge]

currently all AMD AIBs are able to use it

they choose not to

[lusty hinge]

no it isnt

this is just a 7900 XT and a 7900 XTX

theyre just not intended for you to buy

these are for servers

[wicked ermine]

what are you talking omg

you can buy them but nobody buy them

[lusty hinge]

no, you cant buy them

you will never own one of these

[wicked ermine]

because asrock experimented with it

[lusty hinge]

ordinary people like you and me do not buy these specific AIBs

these cards are intended for server use

they are not sold to us

[wicked ermine]

in europe they was selling any days ago on a normal Hardware Site

[lusty hinge]

i highly doubt that

[wicked ermine]

but the Rx 7000 is at the end of life

[lusty hinge]

this GPU is very inaccessible

im not on about any 7900XTX GPU

im on about this specific model of 7900XT/X

[wicked ermine]

yes and they sold it

[lusty hinge]

what site?

[wicked ermine]

mindfactory

[lusty hinge]

how much for?

[wicked ermine]

for like 1000 or 1100

cost a little bit extra

[lusty hinge]

this site has never stocked one of these models.

i dont see why you need to lie

i know what im saying

[wicked ermine]

i was looking like two days ago and there they had it what are you even talking about

[lusty hinge]

no they did not

they may have had another asrock 7900 xtx

but they did not have this one

this is literally inaccessible to us consumers

it is quite literally impossible for us to obtain one of these through ordinary means

there is very little coverage on these models

[wicked ermine]

https://www.mindfactory.de/product_info.php/24GB-ASRock-Radeon-RX-7900XTX-CREATOR--Retail-_1547213.html

no they dont had it ?

[lusty hinge]

no

thats exactly what i was saying

[wicked ermine]

dont try to say something you has no idea

[lusty hinge]

that is not the one i was talking about

[wicked ermine]

here is the link to the card you mentioned

[lusty hinge]

im on about the ASRock 7900XTX WS

thats the 7900XTX Creator

they are not the same

im done with this conversation.

have a good rest of the day.

in other (outdated) news to switch the topic, LFIII sucks on LGA1700.

[wicked ermine]

https://www.asrock.com/Graphics-Card/AMD/Radeon RX 7900 XTX Creator 24GB/

sorry to say you that same card

stop pretending and spreading some wrong informations

12v-2x6 Power Connector, really sad when people try to make a point out of everything even when they are wrong so the 7500f is 10% slower then the 7600x on avarage systems, it will bottleneck more GPU's out there (more noticable if you play in 1080p).

[lusty hinge]

thats super cool.

my fortnite keeps crashing on DX12.

https://tenor.com/view/steal-gif-10921720797946641795

[wicked ermine]

sounds a your problem, and has nothing to do with all the conversation we had here before.

[lusty hinge]

no, i never said it was.

😊

so pretty.

[grave cipher]

I just read that converstation about 5% performance difference

and wow I've become more stupider

[lusty hinge]

big brain time baby

buy reverie now!

[grave cipher]

after reading that chat above I'm going to buy chinesium cpu and intel Alchemist gpu

[lusty hinge]

do it now!

while youre at it

buy reverie

#ad #notsponsored #epicgames

[grave cipher]

what is reverie

[lusty hinge]

https://cannonkeys.com/products/reverie-keyboard this

the kyeboard

i linked above lel

[grave cipher]

$400 for keyboard made by autistic person

[lusty hinge]

yeah its awesome keyboard

(bad)

[grave cipher]

hes the bad autistic?

[bitter blade]

arent they the best?!

[grave cipher]

rip

[lusty hinge]

last i checked it isnt even a good custom at that price

it just looks awesmoe

[lusty hinge]

😢

[grave cipher]

well if he was the good autistic it would be best keyboard on planet earth

[lusty hinge]

woah. i just got the word.

hes the good autistic

[chrome wren]

Welp, my PSU just exploded

[lusty hinge]

yeah that happens sometimes

what psu was it?

and more importantly, what country are you in? what cpu + gpu do you have?

[chrome wren]

EVGA SuperNova 1300 G+

Ryzen 9 7900X
RTX 3080

[lusty hinge]

wowowowow

iirc and youre in the uk, you could probably just grab an rm750x for £79

supernova g+ was supposed to be decent but maybe i misremember. or magbe you just got uber unlucky

[chrome wren]

I've ordered a new one, but won't get here until tomorrow

[lusty hinge]

awesome

what psu

[chrome wren]

Hoping it hasn't fried anything else

[lusty hinge]

doubt it

although thatd suck

[chrome wren]

Umm some gigabyte thing, only one I found with next day delivery that had a 12 pin ready for when I buy a 5090, and enough pcie slots for everything I have currently

[lusty hinge]

wadaheeelll 5090

its not UD-GM is it? i cant remember if they have 12+4

[chrome wren]

GIGABYTE UD1300GM PG5

[lusty hinge]

nice

ud gm is decent

[chrome wren]

EVGA is supposed to be decent

Only had it like 2 years

Maybe 3

Only got this gigabyte one because of it having all the ports and being able to be delivered next day

Enough pcie/cpu to not have to daisy chain now, and then 12 pin for gpu upgrade

Bruh, looking at specs of 5090, it won't be long before you need 2 12 pins....

Or 5090 might even need 2

[lusty hinge]

is your evga one not under warranty

[chrome wren]

Yeah, but their RMA process for the UK is dumb

[lusty hinge]

theres already 2 gpus that require 2 of them 😊

[chrome wren]

Wtf

[lusty hinge]

yeah its funny

[chrome wren]

1275w to the GPU.....

[chrome wren]

That's ridiculous

[lusty hinge]

of course

what else would one expect from a Hall of Fame?
