The predicted rumoured leaked whatever TDP of 4090 was 600W up until release date depending on what Internet bullshitter one decided to follow.
or rather 600W to 800W
doing everything to can to try and upsell you
I don't believe the 600W TDP rumours at all.
https://www.hwcooling.net/en/leaked-photos-of-geforce-rtx-4090-ti-founders-edition-cooler/ dont know if just good fake
I can imagine 550w at least if 4090 was 450
They make all kinds of prototype hardware to test limits and stuff, and probably 4-8 different configurations of each model to figure out the best profitable way to go, but just because they make prototypes like that doesn't mean they ever intend for them to be sold on store shelves. They can also purposefully put specs in prototypes that are different from what they plan to release so that people do not leak the actual real product.
this is probably as far as it got
that thing looks like it would bend the pcie board
Years ago in like 2002-2003 or so before AMD64 architecture was officially released, about a year before, I got an AMD Clawhammer prototype in an AMD Solo system. It was 800MHz. I still have it. AMD sent me a final silicon update at 1.6GHz, but the actual chips shipped to market at 1.8GHz.
So just because "some guy" has hardware before everyone else doesn't ever mean that what they have is what the company is going to ship to consumers.
They had a 20GB 3080 also even on leaked slides that were official, never happened.
Now there are rumours of a 24GB 4080 coming once the new memory chips required for it are available in the future, but justs that - rumours.
hahaha, what's that 3 phase power connector?
But why do a single 24GB card when you could instead do three 8GB cards. The more ya buy, the more ya save
hahahahaha
Dual GPU gaming might not be a thing anymore, but 2/3/4/5/6/7 GPU use for AI is definitely a thing.
also crypto mining rigs
yuh for sure
dont think anyone thats buying a 5090 cares about psu upgrade while theyre at it
Yea prob not
If a 5070 or whatever required you to go to like a 1500w psu, that's a different story

I don't see watt the problem is.
when a system build comes with an electrical re-do for a room to get you a 240v outlet
how about a dual PSU? or dual 110v input, like server PSU's?
if you're dealing with that, you're going to have big problems if an input fails
plus, people would plug them in wrong and trip the breaker
I run a UPS on each main pc (mine and my wife's) and on the network equipment.
but yeah, upgraded a circuit first, one room needed to protect on the extra draw if everything started at once.
from a reliabiltiy perspective, electricians would love my design rules for rooms
likely to be an office? 2 or more circuits for wall plugs
living room? 3 circuits minimum
kitchen? 3-4 (dedicated for fridge, microwave, deep freeze if applicable)
not counting the 240v50a for the stove

Our kitchen excluding stove has 2
But the 3 bedrooms on a single 15amp breaker is duuuuuuuumb
I hate it here
I wish the rental I'm in had more in the kitchen. If I run the air fryer, stove, and toaster ( bread, not oven ) at the same time, I trip the breaker.
Electricians looked at me funny when I called them to run a single circuit for the over the stove microwave when "there's already a plug available". I had connected a blender to it to test it and the under cabinet lights dimmed.
I found out from a contractor connecting an outdoor ceiling fan that the outside outlets were connected to the family room circuit, you know, the one with the big screen tv. Had the split up real quick. Even divided the room because of the 55 gal aquarium and 200W heater.
Is it possible to FaceTime on iPhone and be someone complete different then who your supposed to be..ya know with a kind of filter?..and how do I expose this when it's happening
Anybody?
Sounds like someone is trying to do some low level trolling.
Yes
Don't think many here are going to help with that.
Could always wear a mask... If you want to be someone else.
I think it's my girlfriend talking to her "lover " and doing it right in front of me
I just wanna know if it's possibe
sounds like a trust issue and maybe some counselling is in order rather than a "caught ya"
"anything" is possilbe with the right tech.
What's the tech or app called
ew
the environmental risk is just something awful
Don't play around. Either call her out on it, or don't. Either way, if you have suspicions, might be time to move on.
and yes, it "is possible" to do all kinds of things with tech and online services. but I don't think anyone here will help you to impersonate another person.
for any reason.

pc cleaning day . dust everywhere on filters 
Judging by that pic you clean yer pc more than regularly enough ๐
filter's all clear still for air to pass through (ie the holes be clear), just a bit of dust that's caked onto the actual metal of the filter. Honestly.... that's what I'd consider to still be more than good, don't have the time nor need to do a full clean every couple weeks
Yeah that looks pretty fine. Filter did it's job as intended
yeah filters doing the job well
can someone on windows and with CS2 chack whether game capture hooks it correctly on last update
Assuming someone doesn't do that sooner i can check when I get home in a few hours.
I'm at least caught up as of whatever may have been released at least 12-15 hours ago.
Unless there was a newer one later.
there was one 9 hours ago apparently
Yeah. I'd need to grab that as well.
paper
it's fucked?
i got a cute picture of dragon
their feets cold tho
XD
๐ข
also some ppl are making fanmods of my mod
so more dragons will be roaming rimworld
๐ im around 100 dragons now
^^
if a dragon eats your cow its a 95% chance its my fault
as always i tell my subscribers to just leave some burgers outside their base
this keeps dragons happy
so they dont eat your cows
nobody listens tho so many ppl have hangry dragons

little distracted but remembered to check: Tried on 30.2 mainline build and latest private TEB build and neither would capture as is from GC regardless of settings chose. REQUIRED -allow_third_party_software to catch otherwise BSOP (Black Screen of Pain).
It works but not as easily as days of old.
yeah no, sorry, the issue was just that the person misspelled the flag and I failed to catch that

double NO
https://www.diabatix.com/blog/asus-rog-sets-new-overclocking-records-with-maximus-z890-apex-and-diabatixs-advanced-thermal-solutions this ai designed LN2 pot looks funky
oooh god
i god banned T__T
i just wanted to post about cool pot
it was a combination of keywords that hit normally spam things
T__T sad
I thought it just muted you 
oof
i had to use google to find the discord link
when I stupidly posted a Tenor link three times in a row one time, I just got muted
and I've posted a link with nitro in the name (the Acer monitors) and I'm pretty sure it just got deleted (probably same situation as the Tenor thing, you will get muted if it happens enough)
that's insane
I've never gotten banned for something like that..
I find a ban really, REALLY bad
a mute is far better
I mean, I assume it's to help cut down on someone just DMing everyone after posting it in here but... I still find an auto ban a big no-no
i just clicked the ops discord invite link
So intel are OC champs eh
maybe it just kicked me
Could be
when i see fenrir again ill talk to them about it
I really want a 6ghz CPU so badly
auto kick still a big no-no to me
if I get kicked off a Discord server, a lot of times I just won't rejoin
it had some sort of message and it spasmed discord
then it delete ops from my list
i dont know what it said tho
I got banned (it got reverted after a few minutes but they still kicked me) from a Discord server for posting an Imgur link.. really stupid thing and I have refused to rejoin
I did join again for a day or two and then left cause I just felt too bad
it wasn't just one mod tripping.. there were 4 users going Erm mods? and posting memes of nice virus and phishing link attempt etc.
it was insane.. just for an Imgur link
I looked at the rules and I wasn't going against anything KEKW
I did say something like you can copy the mp4s here and paste into Discord to use.. and maybe that was it? but that's insane
I posted the link once, it got deleted.. I asked why and then the users were like it's better to post in this channel and have it embed so it's less suspicious
and after discussing for a few minutes and posting in the channel I was told to post in, that's what got me banned ICANT
and it's more that they were just being... incredibly dumb
I don't think I want to be in that Discord server... for now, at least
i remove stress from my life
I think I'd rather have a 5GHz CPU that is faster than that 6Ghz CPU. ๐
could be fun just to say you have a high frequency mhm
but I'd rather be practical
I think CPU frequency is one of the least intersting elements of the performance of a CPU for over a decade. We had 4GHz CPUs over a decade ago, and a few that went above 5, and then more that were in the 3-4 range ever since, and now once again some in the 5-6+ range, but in clock speed alone it doesn't represent any major performance increase over a 10 year period of time. If it doubled to 10GHz it would only be twice as fast as they are now, and it would be a tremendous technical feat to pull that off stable without LN2 or whatever. At the same time countless other architectural changes have greatly increased both the single and multi-thread performance of CPUs far more in the last 10 years than the clock speed has. And now we're seeing the addition of other forms of accelerators becoming the norm to advance computing in other ways.
So yeah, clock speed is pretty uninteresting overall IMHO
Make a 3GHz CPU that is 2x as fast as a 9800X3D and then I'm impressed. ๐
but what if intel just rebrands ghz to ihz and says 3ghz = 6ihz?
They'd have to hire Nigel Tufnel as new CEO to do that. ๐
Save the hooter
who doesn't love hooters

My wife slacking on getting that login info
RIP
At least it's FIBER FRIDAY!

Awfully tempted to actually have them upgrade me to 3 gig.
"price for life" is an interesting idea
Whose life?
do you have 5+ GbE equipment?
No. Just 2.5gig nic but with wife on tiktok/face time and both kids on consoles downloading shit and whatnot, we can probably run into a data bottleneck
Kiddos having game pass ultimate + faster internet is def going to equal more frequent downloads of stuff
Though I could prob QoS their asses to not get priority when I need it
Actually I only haz 1gig nic. Sounds like it might be a good time to drop in a pcie nic
tbh I doubt you're gonna run into that problem
if there's enough devices involved, you won't necessarily need it unless you want to max out the 3gig on your own
I mean, we have 3 smart TVs, 3 cell phones, 1 tablet, 3 consoles and 2 PCs usually all on at the same time. All with varying degrees of usage. And for only $25 more per month to have triple the bandwidth, might be no a bad idea to take advantage
I'll see how it goes with the 1 gig first tho
yeah but you overestimate how much you'll actually use
at 1Gbps a 100GB game is downloaded in under half an hour
I can make chili in an instant pot quicker than that. ๐
if the incoming eats the 3gigs and it's just gigabit out on each port from there, and it can route the entire 3gig out spread across the ports, it would be a small peak speed hit to take for having a spread out biiig pipe of internet
Yes but during that half hour they are eating MY speed
QoS would assist with that
doubtful tbh
I mean if you want the better thing because bigger number and you're a nerd, you do you
It's so I don't have to say "don't do bandwidth heavy shit when I'm streaming"
But yea, 1 gig is prob fine
Will test and see, and can always upgrade plan later
have them gie you a cookie each time they want more bandwidth
they must give tribute
I bought the cookies so that doesn't exactly do me much good 
https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-has-no-immediate-plans-for-core-series-with-3d-v-cache-but-confirms-large-cache-for-future-xeon-cpus
what happended to intel doing cool stuff?
they must refresh your cookie tin
abt those burnt chips...
yeah even the poster has said it was his fault too
yeah and all the """news""" sites be headlining that like as if AMD has a cpus cookin themselves issue too and ugh
protip: wiggle cpu round in socket to ensure that it's actually in there
very defensive of that guy, lel
i was looking at someone install one of the cpus and yeah you can get it misaligned if you arnt paying attention
of course, but again how
you can misalign any CPU if yer not paying attention as to whether it's actually in there
well actually hardcore overclockign showed the how
just.... wiggle cpu around a bit to check that it's actually in there, take another looksie
and THEN close the latch
it's not hard
i agree
since ive seen nobody do that before
but i have seen busted motherboards on ebay that look like that
I could prolly install those CPUs blindfolded, ngl
the "it's actually in there" wiggle is very distinct
it would be difficult if it was upright
let gravity work /FOR/ me, rather than against
no, build it upside down
like this?

i said upside down 
no no you can build in this case with the side glass on teh table
and with your hands coming from the top or front
how
i was excited and i have nerve damage?
yeah but how can it even fall that far
if ya got board on desk, cpu box on desk, and do everything on desk
idk i had it in my hand and my body seized
fair ig
I did manage to run into the door with a cup in me hand
ouch
cup didn't shatter actually
oh nice
well it did once I dropped it...
ive ended the life of many mugs
but not while I was still holdin it
my body sometimes pinches my spine with my bones
and it makes my arm go numb
or move
I'm clumsy af too, and yet I still manage to solder BGA CPUs 
i cant even see the pins as my eyesight is blurrrry
Hmmm, using regular webcams for streaming isnt ideal in low-light conditions (live synthesizer performance with lighting show).
What's the next best thing to a Logitech Streamcam that doesnt cost an arm and a leg?
but i still dont see myself messing up an install like that person did
mine's too, do need me some magnification for that
you need a camera
like a DSLR? Hmmm
you need bigger sensor and better optics, and you no get that for less than an arm at the very least
depends on the phone
Bummer...yeah, my brain is going: "Sounds good, buy one", but my heart is going: "Buy a new synth for the money..."
do you have a smartphone you can test and see if it would work?
yeah but at that point yer better off buyin the best used actual cam that you can get for the money
no chance
an old pixel is $200
some phones are still good-ish at low light photos sure with exposure time and all trickery (and combining photocells), but no chance to do that with video
ok, thanks, but I think I'll just have to live with the Logitechs I have then...if I get rich and famous, I'll invest in some real cameras.
im not sure whats the best camera for webcam use
I've set them all to 24fps, but quality is still a bit iffy when the lights go down
either you get more light, or you stumble upon a heavy cash influx
I have a couple of old phones hanging around that make great cameras. They seem to deal with low light a lot better than webcams. Depends what you have
that's what ye got
(Even the sorta crappy phones)
but yeah, if old phone's around def try those first
wouldn't be hard to beat a webcam
but don't expect perfection
yeah for sure
old sony phones lose value like rocks
in the ocean
like sandstone rocks
unless you can find a recent enough xperia z series or something for 60 bucks I wouldn't buy a phone for that explicit purpose quite honestly
it's never gonna be great after all
which one
what even is that
looks like a generic o11d/o11xl offshoot to me
dunno which one tho, there's dozens
nice case
yeah it's not even out yet
and yeah I think that I don't need to say that I consider it to be ugly as sin ๐
why does nobody like how it looks?
in terms of cases that look like rn I'd say that both fractal&bq got things on offer, otherwise the market's empty pretty much (okay there's some nice lianli ones too, but rare)
like a fractal north?
north, era2, ridge
things like that
Do wish that the era2 was available in rosegold tho
do wish that the north was available without the wood, ngl
ie just make it a slitted front define
but if wood then def the white one
the torrent series is also quite nice, but damn I'd like a version with less gamer edge...
I don't need for me case to stare at me angrily
torrent seems pretty expensive
cause of the fans that you actually wanna keep, ye
but yah, too agressive for me anyway
fun
either shut off the lighting or put a solid panel on it and it's gonna look much better no doubt
maybe
neh that kind of removes the whole point that it's a pc
but I don't think doom red is the right colour choice for the rgb inside
yeah def not
and that green glow that gets added from somewhere doesn't help either
also
put a strip round the rim on the inside
more evenly lit
rather than an ugly glowing fan of doom

Anybody knows why the steam page for OBS is " currently unavailable in your region" in europe?
Works fine for me (Austria)
Le sigh of relief. Tech actually here to finish fiber install
Huh, it is broken in Germany, checked on several machines/accounts/etc
But I hope it is a technical error and not some legality
!download Could always just get the non-Steam version
OBS Studio can be downloaded:
- directly from the official OBS Project website: https://obsproject.com/download
- Microsoft Store (Windows)
- Steam (Windows, macOS)
- Flathub (Linux)
I got it on steam, but a friend of mine had to go through the tremendous effort of using the website. but thanks ๐

Finally!
"Your internet connection is very fast."

Speed tests mean very little with regards to streaming and your choice of bitrate. They measure your raw upload speed to a server that's near you (likely run by your local ISP), instead of your stable upload speed to a streaming server. Your stable speed will determine the bitrate you can comfortably stream at.
The stable speed can be estimated as roughly 70-75% of the speed test result in a lot of cases, however this is by no means a perfect estimate. In reality, it may end up being much worse if there's problems between your ISP and the streaming service.

im a little worried that ill need a pcie gen 5 raiser cable
well new nvidia gpus might make use of it
no I mean why's it a riser situation like that
Samsung s20(slower speed) and Samsung a54(faster speed)
is the s20 the exynos one or the Snapdragon?
ie the snapragon 865 or the exynos 990
okay, can't find anything abt what they use for WiFi hardware anyway, but gimme a sec
I'd say it's a pretty safe bet Matty has the Snapdragon.
go to the network preferences, tap the current connection, and scroll down (while a chonky download be goin, preferably). Could be that it's a shared 2.4&5GHz situation and the s20 connects to the 2.4 whereas the a54 connects to the 5?
basically what I wanna know is whether the slowness is actually represented in the link speed or if there's something else going on here
can also check in your access point web interface while the phones be doing stuff, if that is any good
here's me phone connected to wifi and actually doing stuff in my interface, for example (can get both RX&TX (which is from the AP pov in this case, obv) to jump to 80MHz VHT-MCS 9 VHT-NSS2 Short GI (which results in 866.7 Mbit/s per direction on wifi 802.11ac), in this case if I get upload&download goin to max simultaneously, but yeah ig this demonstrates it well enough
How you transporting the content between them?
yeah
there are ways to do that without but the point of the two-pc setup is to avoid the overhead that those methods have
You can use other methods, but the capture card is the best performing option. I have used NDI (Distro AV) and Teleport with OBS on each machine just fine.
well my issue is if im rendering something on my unreal rig
its going to be annoying to have no pc

how much does a capture card cost?
do they use USB or pcie?
You can get 'em real cheap, but those ones are often unreliable as hell. At minimum a brand name with customer support options like Mirabox, Avermedia, Razer, Elgato is best
Most are USB, PCIE gets more pricey
or thunderbolt if that floats your boat
there's also the question of why you think that a dual system setup's be required
cause most folk that think they need one, well, don't
I have a decklink mini recorder 4K in my gaming(/personal streaming) pc now, that this is great
๐
super low-latency
only downside is no hfr support
Or a renderbox
yup
just a smol thing that ya can offload them renders to
or ig settle on rendering things slower while yer doing other things with pc
all doable
Or a full height rack. Also acceptable solution
I'll still say though
ill have no room for my bookshelf of plushies
if you spend any amount of time doing video stuff having a capture card available is great
yeah
I have multiple and I use them all the time
well you see with unreal engine
you dont really render
its mostly done live
then you finish it off with a render for mostly RT
so i cant really game on the pc and keep my work running in the bg
ill run out of vram and ram and my pc would melt
reasonable reason for a second pc
where does the capture card requirement come in, in your mind
UNREAL EATS ALL THINGS
ill get audio issues and drop frames
my 5800x and 3060ti can be a okay second pc

netflix gotta upgrade internet
well this is the craziest boxing match i've ever seen
Yea this is a battle
4 headbutts and still pulls the decision
Wow
This is why you never want to leave a fight in the hands of the judges
yeah but in this case that wasn't on purpose, they both were trying to knock each other out the entire time
apparently she got screwed out of her first loss too? rigged
Wow this chick went up 3 classes? That's insane
Both of those ladies would whip my ass 
Really hoping Tyson lands a "knock your head off" punch
If he can't get it done in the first couple rounds, I think Jake takes this
He's too young and in shape to not as long as he doesn't get his head knocked off
yes I would love for mike tyson to win but I do not see that happening
I put $5 on each of em for the fight to be finished and not go the distance
As long as it doesn't go the distance worst case scenario I win $2.50
Best case scenario in that I can buy a large red bull tomorrow morning

what yall looking to get?
If I can find a i9-12900k for good good that at least.
Wanting to upgrade to something fresher and my i5-9600k is a bit
tbh.
Grab the one of a couple things that would normally be expensive.
Hoping for a good 5700X3D deal maybe.
there was a 12900ks for 150?
isnt that microcenter only?
5600x3d and 7600x3d were the microcenter exclusives
Not a store we use in Austria 
microcenter has the 5700x3d for $180
5700x3d is easily available on Amazon
Tray would be 177,-, boxed 199,- now
not bad
https://www.ebay.com/itm/256347779312 $112 for 1440p 180hz certified refurbished
Unfortunately a hair late by the looks of it and I'm not seeing anywhere cheaper than $276.
Still not bad but definitely want decently lower.
That I trust at least.
Uuuuh hopefully not another 1 grand DSP/amp combo ๐ but you never know with me and good deals on shinies

I stopped using stable bit, because it didnโt know โwhat was whatโ, and the devs couldnโt figure out what was going on either
I might change to something else when I get a proper server in my new place.
The biggest downfall, will of course, be the transfer from StableBit to whatever I change to. I'll need to buy more drives, me thinks.
For me, it kept failing on a file that no longer existed. And no matter what I did, or what was suggested for me to do, it never fixed the problem.
So the result just ended up being โjust rebuild the whole thingโ,
At that point, Iโd rather just go back to my StarTech RAID 10 box and replace drives as needed
Ever try FreeNAS? I loaded it up on an older PC to play around with it a bit and learn more about NAS / Storage / etc. That way when the storage guys at work started saying things I had an idea of what they were talking about.
i found the owner of the internet archive
Internet Archive, according to Google's AI thing, is "over 35 petabytes"
that's a whole lot of hard drives ๐ฑ
according to google AI, so is your mom
Google AI learned it from her technically
XD
used to play round with freenas back in the day ye, nowadays if goin for ZFS I'd go for truenas scale tho (truenas is the successor to freenas anyway, and scale is the lin version of that all that's gonna replace the bsd ver fully in due time)
tho if I personally wanted to set up a NAS these days I'd go for cephfs most likely
I tore down my NAS. Was more of a learning project to help educate myself a bit. May consider truenas if I decide to build it out again.
yeah. if going for truenas then most def truenas scale
ciiiscoo
Lucky kid, they could've ended up with a single loose lightswitch instead
thats not dirt. its concrete
yuh i dont like concrete ceilings
They never said it's dirt 
what is this? a dirt road. what's it made of? sand and gravel, some rocks too. what's in concrete? sand and gravel
therefor, it's kinda a dirt roof, minecrafters rejoice!

I have a similar setup for my own stuff. I've got a 4-bay usb thingy with a pool for "cold storage" class stuff
more and more software raid/pool solutions use metadata stored on the drive to keep track of everything so that numbering drives is so much less important
yes, but
not every system does that
numbering the drives is extremely easy
and you wouldn't be the first to figure out that your system doesn't do it the hard way
@civic quarry how's the chair
sucks, returning it
I shift positions a lot when sitting, sometimes I'll put a leg up or lean on my side a little bit
normal sitting it is good but any other sitting feels terrible
Gotcha. So for someone that doesn't shift around a bunch, decent value then?
yeah, the one other thing is that I wish I would've gotten the one with the 3D armrests adjustment but either way if the comfort was still the same I would've returned also
I am working a chair expense into my promotion/salary negotions at work right now ๐
I live with a friend who has a herman miller chair and it really is just the most comfortable chair ever lol
I'd like to have one but can't justify the spend currently. If this potential job opportunity comes through, it would be am easy trigger pull
Thanks to gamepass, I'm discovering golf is just as frustrating in a video game as it is irl
1 shot makes up for the 10 shitty ones. But those 10 shitty ones are still infuriating

for some reason google.com is defualting to my current region. I remember typing something like google.com/ncr so its default to USA region
i suck at PGA lol
Duuuuuude. It's so mean
Ask google

i did
Based on that response you are missing the irony
And now im having nostalgia for the old golf simulator rooms they used to have here at the former indoor mini-golf
i just made a HUGE achievement, but lost a lot of money and have no idea what my future looks like right now
I want a golf sim
so just trying to do random things so i dont think about it
But they are hella spendy
Yeah they are. Though ive seen folks figure out how to DIY ones
so i just want to know how to make google netural
I could prob play 100 rounds on the shitty public course for the price of a good sim
And we can play year round here
i have a friend with a sim, pretty cool
I have never actually been out on a course before but have played that a bunch
Being on a course is a blast.....with enough beers
btw the google.com/ncr works for google.com but as soon as i go to gmail or something it goes back to my current region. It was nevr like this before
i'm sure gmail redirect is based on your region on your account
I might get kiddo and me a few used clubs for Christmas and see if us going out on weekends for fun/practice sticks
Diy sim
Easy way to scholarship
it didn't do that before though...this change is recent
(to them not us)
im not even logged in...so there is no reason to change the region
Well naar needs us as safe space
I can't
just temporarily
if they're within complaining distance I've already shot them in the face and they're dead
I got you boo

Forknut needs proximity chat to curse out 12 year Olds
There's this warzone dude I keep seeing and he's hilarious. Lumpe I think?
His shit talk is on point
I cry every time I see my grocery bill
soon i wont even be able to get a grocery bill
Let go from work? ๐ฆ
no
its not that i dont want to talk about it lol, but it would be self advertisment
but ill try to condense it and not self advertise as much as possible
I was working on a project recently and the funding I had was VERY tight. I basically knew this would be a financial faliure before i even started. So I went with the thought process that this would be my "exit" or "retirment" and just do it " 1 more time" and for almost a year I really was thinking like this
Then I did the thing and I exceeded all execations, except the financial one of course. The financial stuff is not my current worry, but the reception I got from everyone. Imagine your hero's telling you, you did something very very very few people could ever do and they tell you that you inspired them
I got A LOT of positive feedback and got a flood of positive emails and messages and reading them just made me tear up....and now my dumb ass, even though i told myself i would not do it again....wants to do it again and bigger and better
But we go back to problem #1 which is i need more funding and proper funding to make it financially successful
I hope thats good enough explanation
the project itself was successful....the failure is only the financial part
so i dont know what to do next and how to convince people to give money to make it viable
my issue was always not having enough funding...but despite that I get what I need done...just at a loss
i mean that should show you how effecient I am......but people just see the negatives
Well, in most cases, money spent needs to equate to money earned...especially for those investing/spending
you are right
but for years i have been doing this as a way to show people what I can do with minimal support...but they always doubt what I achieved
despite having a million pics and videos of what i do
and if by some chance i do get someone interested, they give me 1/2 of what i asked for and say something like "show me what you can do and we can talk later" and then i do what i say i can do and tell them "ok now give me full funding" and then they change their midn
mind
but what I did last week cannot be denied. I made sure of it. People will be talking about it for years
Now i just need to find someone who belives in what I do and give me proper funding
What I basically did last week was a showcase of my skills, but I did it in a flashy way so people would talk about it
anyways thanks matty
honestly? that doesn't sound like they don't believe in you, that sounds like they're taking advantage of you
its not because its their money that they lose
they gain nothing
ok
i mean it just happened last week lol. Someone lost almost $300,000 and he said "show me what you can do" and there is nothing for him to gain...I originally asked for $800,000
I just talked to someone yesterday and told him that either you give me the full budget or you will lose your money
im very transparent with these guys. I tell them exactly what will happen
to give you a clearer picture...they are asking me to do something big with literally 0 marketing budget
thats why its not financially succesful even though the product is very successful
i hope this made more sense
they keep telling me "why do you need so much money for marketing" and i keep telling them its literally the most important thing
its the first thing they cut from the budget
because its literally the biggest expense
yee ouki
so I do my thing, and people are happy, and my reputation for my work gets better...but these investors lose money because they dont want to spend on marketing
its a cycle
I'm mainly sad that I really was going to quit but the feedback had been so overwhelmingly positive that I have to do it again
bottom right, settings, advanced settings, costumize your search settings, other settings, bam. change it as you want


it's you
you're the weirdo

i already did this
google.com is fine, but as soon as i click on gmail or any other google service it switches regions (without me even being signed in)
i have to go here and change the language
its not a region but langauge setting it seems
Can someone make the 9800x3d be in stock please
it was in stock on friday
amd said it will have more stock this coming week
Switching from inte!!?!?
Tired of waiting for a good upgrade path from my 12700K
I'd probably prefer a 9950X3D but I don't know what prices will look like next year
Also finally getting rid of the internal SATA HDD
dang you still have one of those?
Yeah just a 2 TB WD drive for all of my screenshots and scratch recordings and download crap
Nothing wrong with using "old" tech if it still works ๐ I have an SSD along with 2 x 8TB WD HDDs ๐
It's being replaced with a 6 TB external :P
Cheap and less crap in the case, no more SATA and power cables
Oh snap some more just popped up at Newegg
Nevermind they lied
But it's in my cart! >_<
The dull thudding as it moves the head in it's rubber mounts lulls me to sleep /s
Yay, hit every note on hard mode on this particular song. Cannot wait for the full release. These 4 songs are starting to get just slightly stale for me. (Wonderful songs regardless)
Still haven't seen any solid info on whether 9950X3D will have dual-X3D or not. Technically it makes total sense to have it this time, but who knows what AMD will do. It'll raise the cost of the chip but IMHO it'll be worth it to pay more if it has that. There are rumours it has it and rumours it doesn't and no useful benchmarks or other info to back it up unfortunately, at least that I've seen so far. I hope that someone leaks more substantive info on it than Factorio benchmarks soon.
I think whether it was going to have that was all up to Intel's offerings, unfortunately. And now it's just a question of if AMD wants to go for the kill, but if I was them I sure would
but yeah, will hear more in the days coming up to ces and ces will be the full showin ofc
and how much benefit it actually makes
until then no way to be sure
greetings all - just got my pc back after being in the shop
I don't think games are gonna make a ton of use of more than 8 cores in 2024, and to the small degree they do use the additional 8, I doubt the gains from those 9-16 cores having 3D V-Cache would be transformative. I assume AMD doesn't want to put out a mega-overkill product like that, spend wafers of cache and manufacturing effort on them, and possibly get mixed or negative reviews to boot.
Then again, intel 12900KS is kind of a meme and exists. But just because Intel has a meme product doesn't mean AMD has to or should want to. Just my thoughts.
yeah, it's not really one for the gamers, but the ryzen 9 series never was to begin with quite honestly. There's non gaming workloads too that love the cache, but ye amd will want for those users to buy the rumoured x3d TRP CPUs no doubt
https://youtu.be/zuN-5yxwogU?feature=shared
Anyone played this game?
Game = Crosscode
since there arent embeds for video on the server, it would help if the game name was mentioned in the chat so people didnt have to click the YT link to find out
although looking on Metacritic, both the Critic and User scores are 80+
darksouls 3 remaster rumours everywhere
Makes sense, since they announced a remaster of 2 earlier this year i believe
Hopefully the time between a 2 and 3 remaster wont be the same as the 7+ years between the 1 and 2 remasters. (Granted, they did have a good number of other games in between, as well as a global pandemic to work around)
I kinda figured DS3 was new enough it didn't really need a remaster yet
Unlike the initial release of DS1 which was uh
Lacking
and seemingly they majorly patched the GTA definite edition games and made it look so much more true to the original now
3D vcache as a feature marketed to consumers is marketed as a gaming feature because it does greatly improve gaming performance and it is the single best use case for the broader market. Existing games are mostly targetted towards 8 or less cores with or without hyperthreadin due to history and game developers not having huge incentives to parallelize their code further, but that is slowly changing and will continue to change as we go forward into the future and higher core counts become more and more available.
It is however a huge mistake to conclude that due to gaming being the primary way these CPUs are marketed, that gaming is the only type of software that benefits from an increase in L3 cache. Software development is another area that benefits from higher L3 cache, as do various server workloads and various other applications. Any software that is constrained by memory latency stands to benefit from higher L3 cache being present, and that is not limited to applications that only can utilize 8 or fewer cores.
With Zen 4 AMD limited the 16-core chips to only have one X3D enhanced die because a lot of non-gaming applications benefit more from more cores running at full clock rather than with X3D at a lower clock, so putting dual-X3D would only benefit some apps but at the expense of lowering overall multi-thread performance, so their decision to ship with only a single X3D CCD on the 12 and 16 core units made a lot of sense both from a business and technical perspective.
With Zen 5 and the redesigned X3D v2 however that changes, because the primary drawback of lower clock speeds on X3D enabled CCDs impacting multithreaded performance negatively is not only greatly reduced, but in fact flips around with many applications now, giving performance gains in a wide variety of apps that are not video games.
Look at benchmark comparisons of a wide variety of non-gaming applications, content creation, productivity and other apps on 9700X versus 9800X3D and the performance gains vary from +5% to +20% or more on non-games. There are some that are still negatively affected by the lower clock but it is now marginally lower. Only apps that are likely to be affected are those that are totally CPU bound and not memory latency affected at all.
The take home from these revelations is that the reasons why AMD chose to only X3D enable one CCD on Zen 4 no longer are true on Zen 5 and it is now beneficial to enable it on both CCDs, improving both gaming and NON-gaming application performance.
So "games wont need more than 8 cores in 2024" isn't a great technical argument against AMD having X3D on both CCDs of the 12 and 16 core chips. I'd say it is a completely irrelevant observation. ๐
Putting X3D on both chiplets probably raises the cost by $50, but raises the performance by 10-20% on that 2nd CCD also, and I think many people would happily pay an extra $50-100 to have that performance gain and a symmetrical chip, and not have to be forced to use Xbox gamebar or other hacks to constrain games to a single CCD.
Lots of people out there want it for non-gaming now, especially after seeing non-gaming results on 9800X3D. I think AMD is completely off their rocker if they do not put it on both CCDs.
And I think all the tech outlets will call them that in some words or another if they don't have dual-X3D for the reasons I cited. They're throwing away performance to not have it, and if they put it on there, the 9950X3D is likely to get insane rave reviews as the fastest chip in the universe blah blah blah even if they charge a lot more for it.
Windbg is pretty good. Was just able to troubleshoot kiddos pc crashing and pointed at the silly usb wifi dongle thing. Ordered a pcie card to see if that helps
do you really love your child if you force them to use wifi
Yes
I'm not running a 75ft cable from my office to his room
I rent so drilling unnecessary holes isn't an option
He doesn't need more than a stable wifi connection. I'm fairly certain he will survive just fine
I've been doing test streams on WiFi and it's "fineโข๏ธ"
I don't really play multiplayer, but never used to do that on wired either, so...
I wouldn't personally use wifi since I pay the bills in this bitch and shouldn't have to....but he's 11 and fortunate to have what he has

Fair
any experience with ethernet over power or coax?
more expensive than a wifi dongle, ofc
I have coax in two rooms, corners of the house farthest away from the wifi. Seems to work fine.
that all depends on your house wiring
EoP kinda sucks
ethernet over coax is p much what a lot of ISPs already do, as in cable modems
it's good if you're in like a bunker and just can't get a wifi signal in
it's the same thing, just limited to LAN
but it tends to be very inconsistent
ethernet over coax is generally fine if your coax cabling isn't literal shit
and fun fact: what you're technically doing is to encode data into mpeg frames and then that's what yer sending down the wiring
at least with what ISPs do
dunno abt ethernet over coax tho, but I can't imagine it being all too dissimilar
that's not what in-house ethernet-over-coax things do
ah interesting
afaik
but unlike power wiring, coax cables are meant for transferring data signals so that system immediately has a leg up
okay, but we must be talking abt moca now tho, as that is the most common one these days for in home coax IP
yep, moca adapters here.
yeah I forgot the name for them
ah, finding out whether moca too does it the same way that docsis does would require being a partner in that whole proprietary thing
cool cool
there's also just straight ethernet on coax btw but I'm pretty sure that never escaped the 10Mbps era
(10BASE2)
yup, that indeed didn't escape that era
but honestly wouldn't surprise me if moca does indeed do it differently as compared to docsis
the main reason as for why docsis uses mpeg2 (could be that it's mpeg4 these days?) as the transport after all is so that it can be run over all of the TV backend&everything
I wonder if that is still the case for modern docsis versions
oh it absolutely is
cause why would you wanna replace all the backend stuffs that originates in the 80s&90s
newer docsis standards are mostly done by improving the encoding and by allocating more channels to it
hard to find info on docis4 as a whole too
but yeah it could be that 4 drops that cause TV is mostly done via IP too these days
so just allocate the entire bandwith ya got to docsis and let the tv run over there too via IP
docsis 3.x already allows that
Damn, GTA V really evolved... I "only" get around 80 FPS in 1080p with my 3080
GPU bound?
It's always been such a poorly optimized game haha. People with 4090's be like "yay I got 100FPS" haha
Come again?
Yup
At 1080p?
I'm really happy 2560x1440 is so cheap now
Seems kinda low for a 3080 driving 1080p but whatever
$102 for 1440p 180hz certified refurbished
I would be checking whether render resolution got jacked up
Or resolution scaling or whatever they call it
Pretty sure gtav just runs like ass
it really does
Let me check
atleast some random internet guy did all the hard work for them and fixed their stupid load times
I was tempted to get.. but I just don't need it
what's the model number on it, sounds like a generic mid-tier panel monitor
Scaling mode.. and it is set to 2.5x by default
Turning it off gives me 120 FPS stable
Thanks for the hint
XV271U M3
"fuckin unoptimized game" complaints are one of my pet peeves
....says the guy that plays star citizen
I know I had more than 60 FPS with my 5700 XT but this scaling mode must have been added with one of their later updates
You don't see me complaining about it either
I mean more like the thought process of "this game performance is not what I expected therefore I'm going to start with the assumption that the game is poorly optimized"
Totally possible, never the place to start

it's not a bug, it's a feature matty
Stupid bot
It's high end panel
Should be noted that the $102 was a limited thing.. back up to $127 now
probably better luck buying it refurbed and looked over vs new and possibly dead judging by a few reivews/comments
Fuckin
Newegg has 9800X3Ds available as bundles
But all of the X870 boards are shitty
buy a bundle, sell the rest on ๐
LOL!
Oh X870
You only have 2 PCIe slots
And yet they both still share bandwidth with a couple M.2 slots
WHY
ah so it's an "x870" board, in quotation marks
I mean it technically would do what I need
2 unshared M.2 slots and a PCIe x4 at the bottom for a capture card
This also seems kinda sparse
it is
But they're all like that
I mean if you go to the $500 boards then you get a cluster of 6-8 10Gb ports
we're never gonna see acceptable mainboards again, are we
Mainboard manufacturers want a bigger cut of the pie
rather than just being a necessity to stick the parts that you actually care about together
it doesn't even have PS/2, wtf
huh what, I got over 120 with max settings at 1440p on a 1080ti
I even had to limit it to 60 because the game broke at some points
Go on reading, it's solved already ๐
oh you were rendering at a higher res
GTAV was by default, yes
weird
that's to be expected tho
Isn't newer gen PCIe somewhat legitimately hard to manufacture for or something? More PCB layers, tighter standards for signal integrity at higher data rates etc. I wonder if mobo manufacturing business is actually getting more profitable or this is what they can do without shrinking their business.
Also inflation is kinda big lately for USD stuff. I dunno.
oh no, getting more profitable no doubt
ah, yes
a single rgb LED doesn't cost 5 bucks

and all the software crap
they just really wanna be of matter to you
thou shall care abt which manufacturer of board ya got, and they believe that once they got you they got you and therefore can charge whatever they want
(the explanation is I'm using a grant flow that does redirect to twitch instead of the client-set redirect URL, but their page still pulls the info of the client-set redirect URL)
Even if I didn't want an Asus board they're all priced the same >_<
Why'd they charge any less? Folk buy it!
why the fuck are all these ports listed in bytes/sec
I'll take MB/s over USB revisions any day
Can I just shrug and say "USB standards"
"standards"
but like even the USB 2 ports which famously are all 480Mbps have different speeds listed
39, 40, 42 and 43MB/s
Maybe they did some benchmarks on USB speeds I dunno
I caved and went with an x870 board
This appears to be from Hardware Unboxed's motherboard roundup, where Steve tested real-world throughput of every single port.
Maybe they cite HUB, maybe they plagiarized ๐คท
I was more concerned with the port layout :D
I'm dumb, I forgot Steve's videos are written up as articles for Techspot since he writes for them, besides the videos being branded as HUB. (Literally the same person, so not plagiarism then.)
why the everloving fuck would you put this to be enabled by default
so you can know what chatters are trying to be dipshits but failing, and you can ban them anyway
I hadn't seen that yet but I like it
I see the point of it, especially for mods.
But given how many people use blocked terms to enforce triggers and such, putting this on by default is a really bad idea
I guess yeah, but I suspect this is a minority of people compared to the people asking to know what people are trying to spam the n-word in various ways until they succeed
ok, but to those people, it does not matter whether it's on or off by default
I'm not contesting the feature, I'm contesting the default
well it does in the sense that having it off by default impedes discoverability
the overwhelming multitudes that ask for this option can get an answer for this
idk I support having it on by default
the only thing I wonder is how it works with 'private' blocked terms
includes them too
I'd expect only the broadcaster would see those
oh you can allow messages through now too?
Just getting started, could I please get a suggestion on a good tutorials, or begginer's youtube channel?
can do it yourself for most links by adding http*://* as blocked
