[slim yacht]

its practically cpu dependant lol

if say you pair a 4090 mobile with a 13700H, it wont perform as well

[dreamy rose]

i'm talking the 13980HX vs the 7945HX

[slim yacht]

in that case yea, its actually best case scenario

[dreamy rose]

AMD draws 20 less and performs better than the intel at higher wattage.

[slim yacht]

mention of performance with 4090 mobile being nice is not really true itself considering its got carried by the cpu

[dusty rune]

what are you even on

a laptop 4090 will match a 3090ti with the newest cpu

[dreamy rose]

discord

[dusty rune]

or what, the 3090 is carried by having a 13900k?

[tidal minnow]

13900k is carried by a Geforce 9800gt!

[dreamy rose]

it is good day to be not ded

[vapid canyon]

Hello, I just joined, I'm trying to diagnose performance issues on a laptop.

[night heron]

whatchu smoking dog

[dreamy rose]

i dont think you know what 4090 he means

[night heron]

it's true that it's basically the mobile version of a desktop 4080, not the desktop 4090, but it's still a great gpu

[dreamy rose]

its a little shitty for 1800 though

[night heron]

complaining about halo product pricing is a waste of time to be honest

although it is funny watching apple silicon demolish the mobile 4090 in premiere pro

faster render times with substantially less power draw

[dreamy rose]

i mean its 200 whole dollars more than the desktop one which is wildly better.

[night heron]

laptops are never going to be equal in value to desktops

it's a waste of time to gripe about it

[dreamy rose]

Nvidia prices these things for maximum gouge.

[night heron]

you can talk to yourself if you want to rage about nvidia

i hate all big three silicon companies

the only reason amd isnt predatory is because they cant compete

[still light]

Because I'll spend 350-500$ for a 6800-6950xt vs spending 1k-1.5k for nvidia equivalent all so I can use raytracing? Lmfao

[sharp bobcat]

a bit late but 7600 non X

[night heron]

the 7900xtx is the complete full silicon that amd can offer and it still falls far short of nvidia's 4090 which is only 89% of the complete silicon

[dusty rune]

the 7900xtx is complete silicon? i thought it wasnt

[dreamy rose]

Source?

[night heron]

gpu vendor product pages and techpowerup

[dusty rune]

"The RX 7900 XTX has the fully enabled Navi 31 GCD (Graphics Compute Die) along with six MCDs (Memory Cache Dies)"

-tomshardware

[night heron]

the complete ada silicon is 18176 cuda cores, 4090 only has 16384

[dusty rune]

"Unlike the fully unlocked RTX TITAN Ada, which uses the same GPU but has all 18432 shaders enabled, NVIDIA has disabled some shading units on the GeForce RTX 4090 to reach the product's target shader count."
-techpowerup

i dont get how people think that AMD will beat the 4090

[night heron]

oh is it 18432? i only know of the rtx 6000 having 18134

[dusty rune]

i guess

[night heron]

the full ada silicon would land at 158fps in this testing (im using 18134 cuda cores to represent the full silicon)

amd can only offer 72% of that with the 7900xtx, along with only having 1/5 the raytracing performance

[still light]

7900xt goated

[night heron]

i mean if you wanna pay $800 for what is the replacement for the 6800xt then sure

id advise just getting a 6950xt if you want an amd card

Muh ray tracing

[night heron]

i love muh rt

[night heron]

[gilded forge]

my god

[shrewd echo]

I havent used rt since metro exodus

[night heron]

theres only one game with real raytracing at this point anyway

but it is interesting to see how much further nvidia is with it

[shrewd echo]

the switch from ips to an lg c2 was more of a monumental shift for me than experiencing ray tracing

[night heron]

absolutely

globally backlit ips monitors are extremely obsolete

practically projector picture quality

[dreamy rose]

almost like they should settle for a while and provide a marginal generational improvement next gen.

[night heron]

nah i hope they keep embarassing amd

[shrewd echo]

I hope AMD continues to do well since RT is still not a top priority for most people

[night heron]

i wish amd was doing well too but theyre not

[shrewd echo]

Jusr getting the performance at a decent value is good enough

[still light]

This 1000000%

[dreamy rose]

is that what they were doing? i couldn't tell

[still light]

Fake engineer is after my heart

[night heron]

yeah youre delusional bionic

[shrewd echo]

Intel coming into the market as well

Im sticking to nvidia for sake of convenience

[still light]

Nvm I don't like you anymore

[shrewd echo]

But i have no issue recommending 6800xt to people

[night heron]

i mean nvidia is the only option for a high end gpu right now

[shrewd echo]

Its more of a work convenience

[long briar]

far from obsolete due to cost reasons

[night heron]

extremely obsolete

[long briar]

But definitely not innovative

[night heron]

it's garbage tech

[shrewd echo]

I cant change how some enterprise apps interact with the gpu

[long briar]

it's perfectly functional, and has been for decades

[dreamy rose]

riiiight. because 400 dollars definitely competes well with 270 and faster products at 280.

[night heron]

being functional doesnt mean it isnt obsolete

[long briar]

what's your definition of obsolete?

[still light]

Anything that isn't nvidia

[night heron]

being inexcusably garbage compared to newer existing technologies

being several orders of magnitude worse than other display techs in multiple categories

[shrewd echo]

I've got some friends who got a 6800XT at my direction over the 3080

[dreamy rose]

you wouldn't say a NES in inexcusably garbage compared to an Amiga

[long briar]

Oxford dictionary says Obsolete verb : "no longer produced or used; out of date."

[shrewd echo]

Its literally fine wine at this point

16gb vram is still a ton for professionals

[long briar]

IPS is still the absolute most popular panel type

[night heron]

i would say nes is garbage

the console is dogshit, it's pitiful in performance and the cartridges are prone to failure

[still light]

6800 is goated gpu atm

[shrewd echo]

I agree

[night heron]

the games are good but the hardware is terrible

god bless emulation

[long briar]

my condolences

[strange gate]

Yo

[dreamy rose]

a real friend points them towards a Radeon.

[shrewd echo]

Why its straight up a better gpu long term

[strange gate]

Amd the best

[night heron]

yeah unfortunately

[shrewd echo]

Its not even a case of this brand better

[near nymph]

I've switched to Linux. Radeon has been pretty smooth :3

[shrewd echo]

Its because of the 10gb shit

[long briar]

Because atm ROCm still doesn't work and not many apps are as optimized for OpenGL as cuda

[shrewd echo]

That 16gb is going to get people much farther

[night heron]

ips itself isnt really that bad, newer ADS panels have 1650:1 contrast ratios and the bleed is grey instead of blue, but the notion of basic edge backlighting is inexcusable

[dreamy rose]

its not that. its because the Radeon is much better a card period.

[long briar]

IMO for long term, I'd just get what works now and switch later

[dreamy rose]

Cheaper and lasts longer

[night heron]

:3

[near nymph]

Fedora is pretty nice.

[night heron]

ive only used debian

[long briar]

which means it's not obsolete, just inferior

[strange gate]

I don’t get how people don’t use places like eBay and Facebook marketplace cuz u can get stuff for like £100 cheaper and I’ve tried it

[shrewd echo]

Its not as black and white anymore from what ive experienced in my sphere of engineering apps

[dreamy rose]

finally someone says something thats not "Linux sucks fuck linux"

[real schooner]

I'd say Nvidia makes the better top-end card atm BUT! I wouldn't pay for one, nor would i pay for the leccy bill to run one

[shrewd echo]

Where radeon was hot garbage in 2017ish now they're just as useable in many places as nvidia

[long briar]

yea. Gaming and OpenGL applications

[dreamy rose]

just ditch Nvidia in general. Gaming is something they dont give a shit about.

[near nymph]

I gave up on Ubuntu snaps. I dislike PopOS's interface. Fedora seems to be perfect

[long briar]

except tensorflow still has no competitor

[dreamy rose]

Snaps are shit everyone agrees but Canonical

[strange gate]

I thought I was educated in terms of software until I came here

[shrewd echo]

Most of my apps have the option to switch between cuda and open gl

[long briar]

it's not "I'd say", 4090 literally it's own league

[long briar]

yes, but most are more optimized for cuda and thus run faster

[manic torrent]

what do you mean?

[long briar]

which is the entire point of better graphics cards

[shrewd echo]

Eh not really

[still light]

Comparing the 4090 to a gaming gpu like the 6800-7900 is like comparing a tank cannon to a sniper rifle.

[shrewd echo]

They all run like shit to begin with

[near moth]

[night heron]

i dont know if bionic is just a master troll or if he needs psychiatric help

[shrewd echo]

You wont notice the change really

[strange gate]

Lot more people are very knowledgeable than I thought in pc terms

[night heron]

cant really tell anymore

[manic torrent]

The latter.

[crude jasper]

4090 is still a gaming gpu

[manic torrent]

There's always someone who knows more 🙂

[still light]

It's a work gpu

[night heron]

bionic must be an amd employee, there's no other explanation

[long briar]

yes absolutely you would. For me the only exception is davinci resolve, where OpenGL is as good as cuda.

[night heron]

he confidently states radeon cards are straight up better when theyre quite literally worse in almost every aspect

[crude jasper]

so why is it almost 30fps higher than any other card at 4k ultra while being cheaper than previous gen

[shrewd echo]

Im not talking film apps

[long briar]

That said rx7000 series av1 encoders are awesome

[crude jasper]

its very obviously a 1440p/4k gaming card, that is also used as workstation

[long briar]

NLE, not "film apps"

[shrewd echo]

Im talking Architecture Engineering Construction type

[near nymph]

RX 7900 XTX :3

Nvidia has their place but. Radeon slaps.

[night heron]

i use a 6900xt but id be a crazy person if i said radeon is better

[shrewd echo]

They're all hot garbage to run

[long briar]

most engineers I know swear by cuda

[real schooner]

every aspect apart from the key one; would you buy it?

[night heron]

if i was buying a gpu today yes i would buy a nvidia gpu

[manic torrent]

I have a 6600XT and a 3080ti. both great.

[still light]

Michael is that person that just lives for technicalities and semantics

[night heron]

i dont

[dreamy rose]

the only thing they are frankly inferior for are CUDA workloads.

[night heron]

there are very very few things that radeon is better for

[shrewd echo]

I can see it 100% for physics simulators and the like

[royal arch]

you mean other than price-performance ratio?

[near nymph]

Like Open Source?

[crude jasper]

for the price difference and the affected spectrum of consumers, 4090 is definitely worthwhile for how huge the FPS gain is on 4k

[night heron]

pure raster price to performance, open source drivers, and displayport 2.0

nvidia wins in every other aspect

[long briar]

yea xtx was like 40% the perf of 4090 in 4k rt or smth

[near nymph]

I would consider the XTX to a 4080... But eh?

[dreamy rose]

Open source will live on far longer than any proprietary crap would.

[long briar]

No?

[shrewd echo]

For my photogrammetry nonsense it boils down to raster and vram at the end of the day and then you end up being cpu bottlenecked anyway lul

[long briar]

Apple vs Android proves this ish

[manic torrent]

Not always.

[night heron]

yeah ios apps are usually more polished than android versions

[winged yarrow]

windows 3.1 source code still going strong

[near nymph]

I like my iphone. This pixel 7 pro I'm using and the Samsungs I've used have been far more buggy compared to iphones.

[long briar]

yea then that makes sense. I've been building 3090 and 4090 systems for engineers for a while now cause they need cuda but also need more than 10gb of vram...

[night heron]

i also had a horrendous experience with pixels

[shrewd echo]

I use both android and ios

Whoops

[near nymph]

I use both. iOS is far more polished

[winged yarrow]

I've been really enjoying my pixel 7 pro, what was your experience like?

[night heron]

i used to flip between android and ios every 2 years when i upgraded my phone, but i just got sick of dealing with android

[umbral pilot]

i flip flop between android and IOS every couple of years

[dreamy rose]

you are missing the point. no matter what, open source code is always going to live on. projects will die and forks will happen the legacy goes on and so forth.

Wrong entirely super wrong

[long briar]

But then before the pixel was nexus... 4 5 6 and 7 8 was tablets? then to pixel?

[red breach]

Nexus 4 was a godly device

[still light]

I am a 4k gamer and I do not and will not buy a fucking 4090 lmfao

[shrewd echo]

Another point to add that you forgot was airdrop. Its surprisingly handy

[gilded quest]

Depends if I have a job in the fall (and what Google store trade in for 8 pro is like)
I don't really want to get a first gen Google hardware product....but I'd love a fold 2

[crude jasper]

nice sub 60 fps card man

[shrewd echo]

I have a 3090ti at 4k

[long briar]

Android has nearby share which works pretty well now, so less of a selling point

at least it's better than android beam

[red breach]

Not in the same league

[still light]

Lmfao 6800 is banging out 100fps at native 4k max settings so I'm not sure what you means.

[shadow furnace]

Love how my name Translates to Huibi here and not Phoebe lol

[umbral pilot]

i like the whole sharing clipboard from macOS to ios thing

[crude jasper]

Averaged? no it does not

[long briar]

Nearby share was just a decade late to the field

[winged yarrow]

I feel you on the fold, I feel the same way although I think I got that opinion from this chat lmao. I wasn't able to get the Pixel Pass so I'm also banking on the trade-in but I'm sure it'll be pretty good. I haven't decided yet whether I'll get it or not, depends on features.

[long briar]

so it's nowhere near as developed

[red breach]

I’ve airdropped 4K video from my iPhone to my Mac at gigabit class speed

[winged yarrow]

I want the Google Assistant to Bard connection.

[long briar]

but for sharing basic things like images it works fine...

[long briar]

yea? that's wifi direct for yoi

[still light]

Good enough you can't tell a difference? Destiny 2 max settings 4k resolution. There isn't any stuttering and with a fast paced fps lile that you'd be able to tell. Which you can't. Cause there ain't any.

[long briar]

Not exactly a new standard either, just a better use of it

[shrewd echo]

The data you can share is still rather limited by comparison. My iphone being a work phone and all benefits from this greatly because i can airdrop AR 3D models really easily

[umbral pilot]

^^^^ was going to say its a direct connection to eachother, not going through any external servers

[long briar]

oh for sure

[crude jasper]

sub 60 fps is good enough?

destiny 2 isn't a hard to run gmae

[still light]

This guy can't handle the fact you don't need a 2-3k dollar PC to play games at 4k over 60fps.

[dreamy rose]

Console

[crude jasper]

6800 would be like a cripple trying to walk on the games i play if i played on 4k

[long briar]

it also helps the wifi chipsets for Apple are usually top tier

[still light]

Why are you playing poorly ported/optimized games to begin with

[manic torrent]

... jesus christ, what year is it.

[crude jasper]

what nonsense is this

[polar fern]

@long briar since 2008.

[still light]

It's the year of cheap af gpus.

[shrewd echo]

6800 having that extra vram is already doing miles better than the 10gb 3080 lul

[winged yarrow]

For every GPU that can't do AI

[still light]

When you drop the price of my entire set up for just the gpu... You're compensating.

[shrewd echo]

As seen by my own 3080

[long briar]

until anything proprietary tech kicks in...

[still light]

Ahh yes, cause 90% of everyone that gets a gpu cares about AI work

[winged yarrow]

No, just the whales that can buy 'em

[polar fern]

“Ai” Ive yet to see it. Just all hype marketing.

[long briar]

Inb4 he realizes 3050 outperforms 6950xt in ai

[still light]

I mean if you do AI work by all means it's justified for getting whatever is best. Bet for 99% of people gaming is what they use the gpu for.

[crude jasper]

my bad

[still light]

But who cares lol

[long briar]

no. most people get GPU for work because people have lives unlike kids like you

[crude jasper]

based off rabbit logic,no

[polar fern]

Um

[still light]

I may be a kid at heart but I'm no child.

[long briar]

NA is really spoiled

[shrewd echo]

If all you do is game its fine really

[crude jasper]

consumers are nowhere near 99% of the people buying gpus

[winged yarrow]

I wouldn't say 99% but pretty close, sure, I do think that as locally run LLMs/assistants get better then it'll be more common to buy a PC with two GPUs, one for the AI and one for the graphics

[dreamy rose]

what you'd wanted to say is the 6800XT's performance would be crippled in the games you run.

[shrewd echo]

There is a reason why i went with a 3090ti at home considering my work laptop is an RTX A5500 quadro

[winged yarrow]

I mean they'll call it something other than a GPU and it'll be tweaked different, marketed as a "neural chip" or whatever tf they wanna call it

[gilded quest]

I have 2 GPUs cause I'm big dumb

[mild elm]

NOPE lol

[winged yarrow]

I want a second GPU so I can do VFIO passthrough and minimize my Windows

Tech chat

[winged yarrow]

If you're not familiar, basically I could have a virtual machine and pass the GPU to it so it performs near the quality of a host OS, so I could run anything as my host and game in a virtual machine.

[mild elm]

LOL

[winged yarrow]

Alternatively, I could watch a video and train an AI in the background

[gilded quest]

Ohhhhh VFIO means that?
I gotchu

Flight sim is the equivalent of reading Romeo and juliet

[polar fern]

Blah. All made-up lines on a map nonsense conjured up by racist colonisers over the span of 1000 years

[long briar]

R&J is a really funny story

[winged yarrow]

GPU Passthrough is done with VFIO (mostly, afaik)

[crude jasper]

how are you comparing playing a flight simulator to reading literature

[shrewd echo]

Msfs is a good gateway into the flight industry for beginners

[winged yarrow]

It's like the underlying system to a GPU passthrough setup I think @full fossil

[crude jasper]

Shakespeare at that

[winged yarrow]

But it also works for USBs and etc

[still light]

It's boring af

[mild elm]

in your opinion

[winged yarrow]

Which flight simulator though, because like DCS is pretty fun ngl

[long briar]

Shakespeare is boring cause you haven't done anything with it

[still light]

Ace Combat is a good sim.

[winged yarrow]

You can't do GPU Passthrough on Windows (with a spare GPU)?

[dreamy rose]

only intresting if you have a whole setup with VR and all

[still light]

Dafuq do you do with lit?

[winged yarrow]

War Thunder is the best sim, just don't feed the snail

[dreamy rose]

doesnt nvidia outright block that ability?

Seems like it takes work no matter where you do it XD

[winged yarrow]

[crude jasper]

the only way to have fun in the game is feed the snail, gaijin ruined it

everybodies been boycotting them last couple weeks

[winged yarrow]

Not if you're a masochist and you're willing to grind for ages. But yeah the boycott has taken its toll, it's pretty funny.

[shrewd echo]

Fail boycott

[winged yarrow]

Their steam charts went down by like 1000

[still light]

I've been on steam 18? Years now.

[winged yarrow]

I'd rather run Linux on the host and Windows in the VM anyway

[crude jasper]

12 years for me and my dads steam account is older than me

[winged yarrow]

You were born after 2003?

[still light]

Now it makes sense why you keep saying 4090 is best. You're not old enough to understand.

[crude jasper]

nonsense

a card running 45fps on msfs is nothing compared to 82fps 4090

4090 on average is 20% better than an XTX

[winged yarrow]

I didn't know they disallowed it, something to look out for. Looks like it's a kernel flag on linux that may or may not help prevent the hardware from recognizing it's being used in a virtualized environment. Why tf would they set it up like that?

[mild elm]

HAHAHAHA shut up

[polar fern]

@full fossil like from the gpu out through the igpu path?

[mild elm]

4090 is better than 7900XTX

it's just a fact

[crude jasper]

^

[full fossil]

Hi can someone tell me if i5-7600k is compatible with msi hm110 pro-vd?

[winged yarrow]

This is, in the vernacular of today's troubled youth, quite "wack".

[crude jasper]

and for rasterization? 25%

[torn shoal]

Is it worrying if my gpu is "performing below 65th percentile" on userbenchmark? All my other components are running average (or so userbenchmark says)

[polar fern]

@full fossil ahh ok.

[crude jasper]

DLSS 3 is also better than FSR 2

[winged yarrow]

Silicon Lottery my friend

[crude jasper]

FSR is still good, just not as good

[torn shoal]

What...?

[still light]

No it's fine

[torn shoal]

It's also saying 32.5% below average bench?

[winged yarrow]

https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/4n7sly/what_is_the_silicon_lottery/

When chip manufacturers like Intel, TSMC, UMC, GF, etc. make wafers, there are slight variations in material quality across the wafer surface, there are local variations in how the lithography, metal vapor deposition, photoresist chemical deposition, etc. are done and this can yield a significant contrast between how good the best chip of a given batch will perform vs how bad the worst chip of the same batch will perform.

When you get a better chip that will in essence overclock better you have thus won the silicon lottery.

[crude jasper]

absolute nightmare for anticheat

justifying 4090 vs 7900XTX, DLSS 3 being better is certainly relevant

[torn shoal]

Ok so I may have gotten a bad batch? But there's also the fact that I feel like my computer has been performing worse in games lately.

[winged yarrow]

If it works it's not necessarily a bad batch, it's just a worse performing batch than the others.

If the problem is recent it could be something else tho

[torn shoal]

I've also tested on passmark, which gives somewhat the same results, that some components are performing considerably below average

[still light]

Does it work to play the games you're playing?

As fun as it is to benchmark things, it's really just a pissing contest.

[torn shoal]

What do you mean? are you asking if it's running games? then yes but my performance has gotten worse (I think. I've not actually measured it) which is leading to problems.

[still light]

Well benchmarking stuff isn't going to tell you much. You got hwinfo64? What's the Temps looking like.

[vivid zenith]

hi

[still light]

What kind of issues are you having to start with.

[winged yarrow]

Personally, I enjoy winning pissing contests. I maintain a diet of soups, teas, coffees, and water, and maintain a constant supply of similar diuretics

[torn shoal]

I think my fps is getting lower recently in the same games

[still light]

I can vibe with this

[torn shoal]

Temps are fine

[still light]

You think or you know? Placebo is a hell of a thing.

[winged yarrow]

Fuckin hate placebos when I know better than the person with the placebo effect, but they can't change their ways

[torn shoal]

I'm pretty certain of it. I usually check fps of my games. Also stuttering

[torn shoal]

Games start to run worse after playing for a while

[winged yarrow]

Perhaps it's an issue elsewhere. RAM constraints? CPU performance? Are you sure you're checking your temps using like HWMonitor or something?

Is your BIOS up to date?

You got them new fancy drivers?

[still light]

Tell me about it. Apparently 6800 can't get more than 60 fps at 4k max settings on games. Idk what I'm talking about though.

[winged yarrow]

You got antivirus? Got any bitcoin miners or RATs on your machine?

[still light]

BIOS update lol

[vivid zenith]

does anyone know if building a pc is a good idea if I suck at most technology-related things

[winged yarrow]

Building a PC is a lot like building a couch from IKEA

[vivid zenith]

So confusing but worth it?

[winged yarrow]

You follow the directions, or watch a video online

[vivid zenith]

Also I can’t get ikea in my country

[icy wigeon]

Building a pc is pretty ez even the Verge was able to make one... Oh wait.. nevermind

[winged yarrow]

Yeah it can be, and once you get the hang of it you can do it again no problem

[vivid zenith]

Ok thx

[gilded quest]

PCs are full of weird, fake swedish words?

[torn shoal]

Temps are fine. I've stresstested my computer several times, even the gpu never rose above 80. If it was cpu or ram performance, do you really think that games would perform worse over time? I free up plenty of ram all the time. BIOS is upto date ( Pretty old motherboard so up to date as can be). Yes I've installed recent drivers (not the latest as it was causing issues) Only antivirus is windows defender. Don't think I have any bitcoin miners or anything.

[winged yarrow]

My favorite swedish words are made up, like if I say things like Haͤrgenflaͤrgen

[vivid zenith]

that sounds French 🥖🥖

[winged yarrow]

Didn't mean to put the reaction lmao, how much RAM do you have?

[mild elm]

not at all

[vivid zenith]

[winged yarrow]

I only know the following phrase in French:

Mon Bite Est Moyen

It's all I need to pick up chicks in Paris

[mild elm]

bite?

[vivid zenith]

Bounjiur, yû śhałl be singèle for yur lifè

[winged yarrow]

You might ask in tech chat or tech-support because that's where the pros like to live, public chat is often looked down upon for the heresy and memery

This isn't necessarily true. I'm in all three.

[winged yarrow]

Like recently my buddy was using the private VPN I set up on a VPS I have and was asking me to restart the server so he'd get better performance, but I knew it wouldn't change anything since that server does nothing but the VPN. So I spent an hour speedtesting before and after with outline vpn and wireguard and raw on the PC and server to show the change was nonexistent/negligible but he was quite blue-pilled

[vivid zenith]

I have a core i69, 21 sticks of 1 tb ram, 17 different motherboards, a McDonald’s salt cooler system all inside a brick case.

It runs at -7 fps

I enjoy this meme, thank you. It reminds me of a particular DEA agent.

[torn shoal]

8 gbs

[winged yarrow]

the standard for gaming these days is 16gb, what games are you playing?

[torn shoal]

Destiny and some older singleplayer games

[winged yarrow]

That could very much be the cause of your stutter

[vivid zenith]

Nvm its -69420 fps now I turned off the salt cooler

[torn shoal]

Trust me tho, games I was playing were running fine before. It's the sudden performance drop which is concerning

[winged yarrow]

And I'm guessing there were no updates, you don't have chrome or any other memory hog running in the background?

[vivid zenith]

Can someone rate my pc

[torn shoal]

Playing destiny?

[winged yarrow]

No, the RAM

[torn shoal]

Well there's frequent game updates (it's a live service game) and such but system updates no not really

[winged yarrow]

Your PC is like a flower in a garden, unique and special, I wish to crush it into bits and use it to scent my bathroom.

[winged yarrow]

And when you play you have nothing running in the background?

[torn shoal]

Most of the time no

[winged yarrow]

Is it a single stick or two sticks of 4gb?

[vivid zenith]

I use the pc as a bathroom

[torn shoal]

2 sticks

Also no overclocks as they crash my games

[winged yarrow]

I'm not sure tbh, all I know is 8gb is very little for gaming, but the destiny 2 system requirements does say it's the recommended minimum so I mean it's hard to say

If it's stuttering or having worse FPS in your older singleplayer games as well then it could be something else, you said you stress tested everything?

[torn shoal]

yup everything

there was also some screen tearing a bit back (just normally using windows) but it stopped

[vivid zenith]

guys my McDonald’s salt cooler has a leak my pc is salty

[craggy basalt]

I’m looking to build a pc, idk what parts to get though, anyone wanna help?

In that case then your PC is like a toilet, and I am secretly a member of a hidden global organization, we call ourselves the Council of Defecation, and we enforce toilet etiquette. Your PC is thusly proclaimed to be a toilet and shall be treated as such.

[winged yarrow]

You could be looking at GPU issues then, I remember I had some issues with my old one where I'd BSOD and whatnot occasionally. Hard to say for sure.

It would be wild if it was actually your monitor after all this time.

I love how Linus is talking about that direct die frame keeping the dies from cracking, yet he's showing us up close that it is cracked lol https://youtu.be/LuVpwB1s8iU?t=365

2nd ccd on the bottom right corner

[gilded forge]

it's be funny to see a dude in a suit come to your front door and say "hi, you have breached your licensing agreement. come with me."

[slate agate]

and that little chip can easily kill a cpu, (teenage me being upset with a tiny tiny tiny chip on my athlon xp killing it)

I still have that cpu in a box of other random pulls from over the years as well

[wispy marsh]

Reddit charging $12,000 for 50 million third party API calls

Bye reddit

[small zephyr]

i would not cry reddit being gone

[cursive cove]

ikr

[wispy marsh]

I use it for news and stuff

[small zephyr]

i swear to good some stuff on reddit is the darkest parts of humanity

[wispy marsh]

I don't know where to get my news now lol

Shitty reddit official app

[slate agate]

reddit is tame compared to how it was a few years ago

[small zephyr]

i get news from nowhere

[slate agate]

they cracked down on lots of the disgusting/illegal shit

[small zephyr]

my take about news? fuck it all

[gilded forge]

bruh I only use twitter in desktop because I can't stand not having Twidere back. I've used Boost for reddit for so many years niw

[primal skiff]

yeah but its just going to thermal throttle when you run anything thats under heavy load

[small zephyr]

this channel need an .com ir lttstore.com emoji instead of just lttstore

[muted relic]

Wow Linus looks sleep deprived in that Noctua video

[crude jasper]

i would

i get a TON of information from some of the forums

that and Quora

Quora is pretty dogshit but typically, some random dude on Quora or Reddit had the same issue you did, like a decade ago

[muted relic]

Does Noctua recommend me buying the new NHD-15 for a 65w CPU? No. Am I going to do it anyways cause that cooler looks really awesome? Probably.

[small zephyr]

noctua rgb when lmao

ugly brown rgb fans would be such great meme build material

[muted relic]

Yeah, it's not gonna give me any performance, but it looks awesome and basically guaranteed to be silent due to the low load

[tepid jasper]

[small zephyr]

i have an 240mm aio on an 40ish watt cpu

[tepid jasper]

[small zephyr]

🤷‍♂️ and somehow the cheap chinese rgb fans are quiet and strong enough for that radiator

[muted relic]

I got the be quiet! pure rock 2 on my 3800X. Works perfectly fine.

[small zephyr]

my first pc cooler upgrade was the pure rock slim 2

but that was basicly a decade ago

[muted relic]

be quiet is a great cooler brand that nobody ever really talks about

They are juuuuust under Noctua in performance

[small zephyr]

my aio is from bequiets daughter company to my knowledge

nut to be honest the core of the fans mostly come from the same manufatorers anyways, only the fan blades and casing looks and perform different

[crude jasper]

bequiet has a subsidiary?

probably just same OEM

[winged yarrow]

Did somebody say coffee-stained tan/brown?

No? Fair enough.

[small zephyr]

to my knowledge its xilence

and they are actually more ugly as noctuas

red NOT RGB red just looks bad

[long briar]

rgb requires different plastics which can be a downgrade to a fan (cue p12 and p12 argb)

[long briar]

you're better off buying a pa120 or smth

It's smaller, performs as good, the fans are worse but you can replace them easily with better fans, and most importantly its cheap

[long briar]

thermalright c12cs?

[sharp bobcat]

I have returned

[sharp bobcat]

[small zephyr]

if you mean the fans its uphere fans

🤔 fuck i have to much time and boredom

[sharp bobcat]

I mean

I used a Prolimatech Megahalem for an i3 4170 build

with two fans too

Why not lapping the 7000 series instead of delidding?

And putting spacers in the cpu 'backplate' (behind the motherboard) to just compensate for the height?

[sharp bobcat]

I just realized

this server never had a vintage hardware channel

It's because it still falls under the same category as the other stuff

Not gonna happen, god damn Taco Bell treasonist

You can tho

Honestly, how dare you speak against the KING?

Oh yeah you can just buy Baja Blast too ig

Doesn't count, not the same, if it ain't comin from a tap, it wack

[molten drift]

How do I dare speak out against Burger King... With my mouth and thumb. And we don't have a taco bell within ,30 mins so.... You wanna pay my gas?

[molten drift]

Not in my area yet.

[still light]

What's the local cost atm

[winged yarrow]

I was talking about Taco Bell, Taco Bell is the king.

[molten drift]

Of gas for my engine 4.45$ a gallon

[winged yarrow]

Ew

[still light]

Nah fuck that. You paying way too much you on the west coast?

[winged yarrow]

Cheaper to get an EV at that point, that price is disgusting

You live on an island?

I mean we have other things just not a taco bell..

And I only drive my car like 2 maybe ,3 times a week.

[winged yarrow]

Now THAT, in the vernacular of the modern youth, is wack

[molten drift]

Which is why having bought it on 8/1/21 it has less than 8,000 miles on it.

[winged yarrow]

With gas prices like those, I'd sure hope you barely drove

[polar pine]

Sounds like a premium opportunity for an EV

[molten drift]

Not at all.

We have no external power and my landlord is not going to install it so... Not useful for an ev

[winged yarrow]

Even with the low solar charge you'd have, it would definitely be better for an EV, even if you had to purchase a heated garage, purchase an array of solar panels, set up the wiring and the batteries, it would be cheaper than a full tank of gas for 10 years

[molten drift]

As well as I work from home so it's literally grocery shopping or going to play magic the gathering and micro center are why I drive.

[polar pine]

Find a used Kia Soul EV for $16k and get $4k back via taxes. 113mi of highway range, more with city driving. Charges overnight even on an extension cord

[molten drift]

I rent not own I can't get a garage or do any of the rest your saying.

[molten drift]

Tax credits vary on area...and often don't apply to used evs ...

[winged yarrow]

EVEN IF you had to purchase land to do all of that, it would be cheaper than a full tank of gas for 10 years

[molten drift]

You do realize that I use like 30$ of gas a month tops?

[winged yarrow]

Ridiculous

[polar pine]

$4k is nationwide for used EVs per the inflation reduction act

[winged yarrow]

Frankly, appalling you have to spend that much on gas

[molten drift]

30$ a month... For total usage of gas for my car is not that bad.

[winged yarrow]

You gotta link for that?

[molten drift]

Ild.be spending much more if I went to office.

[winged yarrow]

I'm fragile /s

[winged yarrow]

Also yeah it depends on where you live lmao it gets to 105 here + humid + mosquitos and it's like bruh why did my ancestors think this was a good idea

[fossil frost]

-10c or +30c outside here, ill be in shorts and tshirt, running, or cycling 🙂

[winged yarrow]

105 is 40c

[molten drift]

I mean we hit 100f in the summer regularly that's when I just walk around when the sun goes down or walk around the Walmart doing laps when it's late

[polar pine]

Why walk around Walmart for free, when you can work for them and make money

[fossil frost]

yes... yet world class runners use that as their minimum training temp

[molten drift]

Cause it's air conditioned...

[winged yarrow]

How many people fall under the category of world class runner?

[still light]

It's like 36c atm

[molten drift]

And cause I work for a insurance company making far more than I would at Walmart

[still light]

Well I am one

[polar pine]

Back when I worked Walmart I got like 4mi a day in

[molten drift]

Which I am doing while chatting here.

[fossil frost]

not a lot, but, humans are perfectly capable of running in that heat, its just that most people are too soft to try

[still light]

Soft isn't the words I'd use

[fossil frost]

ive ran in 40c+, and im no world class runner... i just convinced myself that if i didnt run that day, i wasnt having the food i wanted to eat later on that day

[winged yarrow]

I just don't wanna run because I'm in a time warner cable commercial-style rut, I like bicycling more

[still light]

Lmfao fucking goof ahh

[vapid smelt]

I can't run I have a bad knee

Low impact. Swimming, elliptical, etc

i have a missing ligament in my right knee... a 65 yo friend of mine has 2 replacement knees... a 64 yo friend of mine has her leg fused at the knee... we all run

[fossil frost]

i never said i was in pain, and i never said theres no excuses, what im saying is, that a lot of the excuses that people make, are just that, excuses that boil down to "i just dont want to"

multi core im guessing?

lol would be quite the overclock if that was single core 💀

oh fr I wouldve thought a 13900k would dominate single core

also, it depends where the cpu was cut from on the silicon wafer

centre pieces tend to be slightly better

[frigid chasm]

dont they all get binned to ks processors though

yeah

[hollow knot]

I think so

[frigid chasm]

im gonna build in the new fractal sff case in a few months i think to finish off my build

[hollow knot]

intel also has special "golden" cpu's where its guaranteed to be the best possible cut

[frigid chasm]

but that means i will temporarily have an itx mobo in an atx full tower case

[fossil frost]

and those are reserved for special customers

[neon mesa]

do they even still make those

[hollow knot]

like linus

[frigid chasm]

which will be so weird looking

and aren't those just the special edition ks chips now
which is just better binned 13900k/12900k
