[lapis condor]

Not without going all the way into os

[rugged sand]

Task Manager.

[ripe spire]

Why have u booted without thermal paste 😭

[rugged sand]

I was told to

[tidal geyser]

and you can

[ripe spire]

By who 😭

What for tho

[rugged sand]

sim

[tidal geyser]

there is nothing wrong booting without thermal paste even cooler well i would still do cooler

but all we wanna do is see if a cpu reseat did work

[rugged sand]

sim how much ram should it say?

[ripe spire]

Yeah boot without thermal paste or a cooler I dare u

[tidal geyser]

more then 4

[ripe spire]

How much ram do u have? It should say that

[tidal geyser]

i have?

[rugged sand]

Well we are trying to figure out if both sticks of ram work. Idk how much each one is.

[tidal geyser]

at least 4GB

[rugged sand]

Alright I can check in task manager correct?

[limber nacelle]

I've done this

[tidal geyser]

yes

[limber nacelle]

only with low powered chips to check if it'd boot

I did it with a cooler on top though; only no tim

or well... a "cooler"

[lapis condor]

I've booted without a heatsink
It's not magic

[tidal geyser]

we are in the 2000s

we have protection against this

[rugged sand]

Looks like it's working as it should

[tidal geyser]

you fixed it

[rugged sand]

Let's go!

[tidal geyser]

what cpu is in it

[rugged sand]

Im a pc building expert 😂

[rugged sand]

Intel i5 7400 iirc

[tidal geyser]

thats not half bad

[rugged sand]

i should take apart my other pc. I think it's pretty much the same.

Maybe I could take the ram out and give the other one more ram.

[tidal geyser]

the 7400 is not bad if you wanna make a NAS or a server

[rugged sand]

For gaming, not sure it's that good.

[tidal geyser]

its not

[rugged sand]

It's.. ok.

Well I'm glad the pc booted.

Next step. Thermal paste.

Preciate all the help btw.

[lofty oracle]

hey I have some problems with my cs 2 despite having a ryzen 9 5900hx and rtx 3060 with dual channel 16 gb ram I cant get 150 fps and game feels too laggy. the cpu and gpu usage remains low

[tidal geyser]

laptop

is the laptop in max performance?

or gaming mode or whatever

[lofty oracle]

That's not really the issue coz my buddy with Ryzen 7 5800h gets stable 150

[lofty oracle]

Yes it is

[tidal geyser]

download hwinfo64 and open it in sensor only mode

since the laptop might need a repaste

what laptop is it?

[lofty oracle]

I repasted my laptop with mx4 like a week ago
And I keep my room cool so temp isn't the issue.
The cpu temp stays at 75ish and gpu 75ish too but the usage is low like 30 or so percent on both
I have tried unparking core and islc and everything

Have reinstalled windows too

[tidal geyser]

power draw?

[lofty oracle]

For cpu 30-40 and gpu 85-95

[tidal geyser]

thats the issue

a ryzen 9 with 30w

[lofty oracle]

That's with this game 😭usually it goes to 45 50ish

Wait lemme show u

[knotty girder]

Would a RTX 2080 and a Ryzen 5500 on a 550w gold powersuply run?

[tidal geyser]

yes but what parts do you own now?

[knotty girder]

I got the CPU and PSU

(and everything else for the pc except a GPU)

Or should I get a rtx 3060ti

[tidal geyser]

list all the parts you own now

pc specs

if you have a pcpartpicker then best make one

[knotty girder]

Give me a min need to set up my pc I rn installed my old gpu

[tidal geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/spin-gif-2296255060010733622

[lofty oracle]

The cpu goes to 45 w and gpu to 100 but game gives 80-90 fps and cpu usage stays low around 50ish

[tacit steppe]

Trying to build a gaming PC for Fortnite I wanna know the best parts I can get with a budget of 1K

[tidal geyser]

most games are still only 4 or 8 core best use

[hallow cypress]

yo why does my steam download speed decrease over time? im downloading on my nvme ssd

[tidal geyser]

you only need like 200$ for a good enough pc

[tidal geyser]

maybe QoS

how fast is your internet?

[hallow cypress]

yeah i have that enabled, should i disable it?

[knotty girder]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/qLZwC8

[hallow cypress]

it goes up to 1gbps

[tidal geyser]

wait how fast do you download?

[hallow cypress]

100 mbps

or 10mb/s

on steam, which sucks

[tidal geyser]

pic of it

[tacit steppe]

I shouldn’t spend more than 200$?

[tidal geyser]

yea

[hallow cypress]

forget everything i just said

[tidal geyser]

do you have a computer

[tacit steppe]

Even for a good PC

[hallow cypress]

i turned off QOS and it works 😄

[tidal geyser]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532914296502353930/1333352803317317673/attachment.gif

[tacit steppe]

No, I run Fortnite on my Xbox right now

[hallow cypress]

this is after turning off QOS

[tidal geyser]

o well build recs are here https://discordapp.com/channels/375436620578684930/1106613567966429224

[tidal geyser]

QoS can be very funky

[random gyro]

staying up all night for the 9070xy

[hallow cypress]

nvm it did it again

[tidal geyser]

why

[hallow cypress]

it just started with 800mbps

[tidal geyser]

it has STOCK

[hallow cypress]

instead of 300

[random gyro]

to order it ofc

[tidal geyser]

it has enough stock

[random gyro]

my body js wont the thought ill miss it drivin me crazy

[hallow cypress]

why did it drop down to 0 and then go back up to 200?

this is so confusing lmao

[tidal geyser]

just let it do its thing

[knotty girder]

ong

[hallow cypress]

true

[random gyro]

ong

[hallow cypress]

its at 500 now i guess i just gotta let it download

[lapis condor]

There are single microcenters with more than 400 units in stock

[random gyro]

it come out 9 est?

if so, shit i might sleep then..

itll be nice, order it then send the 7900xt back

[woeful crown]

Does anyone know what the code 00 is on the Asus B650-E with 9800X3D? 😄 Yesterday the PC was working, today I turn it on from completely off after about 8 hours of being off and it doesn't work. The CPU fan starts and stops alternately.

[lapis condor]

Clear CMOS, try boot
Reseat RAM, try boot
Reseat CPU, try boot

[vivid pendant]

When you clear cmos unplug the system clear cmos and hold down power button to empty capacitors of charge

[lapis condor]

Or just shot the header for like 5 seconds

[woeful crown]

Already tried that. Still same, sadly

Interestingly, error 00 is "Not Used"

[vivid pendant]

Make sure everytjing is properly plugged in

[tidal geyser]

had it on a taichi board and not sure what was wrong but i think the VRM died

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/532914296502353930/1333352803317317673/attachment.gif

[lapis condor]

Yeah uh
Well
00 usually means the motherboard or CPU is dead

[tidal geyser]

reseat time

[lapis condor]

Could also try a BIOS flashback

[tidal geyser]

that too

god dam do i love bios flashback

https://tenor.com/view/cat-meow-soldier-tf2-cute-gif-15971582

[woeful crown]

It happend after being 8 hour off (from properly turning it off) lol... What the frick D

[tidal geyser]

laws of physics

hot thing become bigger

cold thing not

maybe

[woeful crown]

my anger is getting bigger

its few months old cpu lol

[tidal geyser]

probs not the cpu

many factors can make this happen

[woeful crown]

the display blinks slightly lol

[tidal geyser]

xd

also its showing a error code

[sinful cobalt]

there was this 1 time the day i got the 5070ti, my friend went to tune memory settings in bios for the x870 SL and the thing took so long

[sinful cobalt]

we literally went down for dinner, came back up n shit was still training

he jst bios flashedback ts lmak

[tidal geyser]

lmak

[thin plover]

lmak

[naive chasm]

yoooo

am thinking of getting linus

[tidal geyser]

ummmm

[naive chasm]

linux*

[whole garden]

linus

[naive chasm]

Mint or Zortan

[tidal geyser]

its a memory problem

[whole garden]

Where can I buy a linus at?

[thin plover]

lttstore

[random gyro]

9est 9079xt drops?

[tidal geyser]

maybe

[naive chasm]

ryzen 7940HS with 4070 Laptop

good?

i mean its a laptop, but i cnat get a pc atm

its an electricity issue

[tidal geyser]

yea

[naive chasm]

16 gigs of ram and 8 gigs of gpu memory

not even out yet bruh ofc its 4k

its like one of less then 100

[solar moat]

so that why youtube not loading

Adjust for whatever

[random gyro]

9am

@hoary tree 2,159.70 is what it would cost me in ur currency what it is here

[hoary tree]

😭

[woeful crown]

you think? I tried both sticks one by one in all slots and no luck

Dont tell me both of them are dead at same time 😄

[tidal geyser]

clear cmos

[fair badge]

Trying to install proxmox 8.3. What do i do?

[tidal geyser]

the memory controller is in the cpu and connected by le pins so a cpu reseat might be the quick and simple fix

[lapis condor]

00 means either the CPU or motherboard is dead

Which is real unfortunate
But also could just need a CPU reseat

[tidal geyser]

it has a led on it

the yellow led is for dram

[lime steppe]

I got a real dumb question. I ordered a USB fan from Amazon. They sent me a 2 fan config instead of the 1.

I need to finish the project I got it for today, Amazon can't deliver in time.

Can I just...cut one of the fans off at the wire and wrap it in electrical tape? Will the other fan work fine, or will it be inoperable?

[tidal geyser]

i have MANY questions

first of all why are you using usb

[lapis condor]

Can't detect DRAM if the CPU doing the detection is dead

[tidal geyser]

yup or the imc

[lime steppe]

Because I'm building an enclosure, so there's no 3-pin/4-pin

Not a PC build

[tidal geyser]

o well make it 2 fan

[lime steppe]

Just wanna know if I can snip the cord and have the 1 fan operate fine. Otherwise I don't want to damage it and be incapable of returning. Just don't have time for an exchange.

[hoary tree]

RX 9070 (non xt)
is priced at $1048 🥲

[tidal geyser]

main issue is if that controller uses pwm or not as in a lot of cases only one fan has it and if that one is gone then bad things

[hoary tree]

I'm so done with graphics cards man

[tidal geyser]

or you can wait until it launches

[lime steppe]

Welp, best not to risk it then I suppose. Thank you

[woeful crown]

cpu reseat sadly not work 😦

[hoary tree]

It has launched. People are already buying them

[woeful crown]

I will drive to my friend who have similar system so we test ram and cpu in different mb

[tidal geyser]

o yeah true

[woeful crown]

hopefully its CPU whats dead 😄 Only one with warranty 😄

[hoary tree]

$1075

[tidal geyser]

wut

the ram should have limited life time warranty

did you try a bios flashback?

[hoary tree]

The GPU market is beyond fucked

[clear hull]

hi sim

thoughts on the budget noctua 120s?

Noctua P12 redux-1700 PWM these

[lapis condor]

Your GPU market is fucked

[lapis condor]

Too expensive for what they do

Arctic P12 PST PWM or whatever

hello Fronk

https://tenor.com/view/gato-gato-lamiendo-gato-paleta-lamiendo-gif-15858928605675053640

[eternal reef]

Guys, I am looking to create a server pc to run minecraft, I have no care for upgradability in the slightest, I was thinking of going for a used 3600 for £45, anywhere I can go that has cpu + mobo (+ram) bundles that are actually worth it, Online stores only (Uk) or should I just buy a cheap used mobo and a £30 kit of ram seperately

[tidal geyser]

max budget for all of the server

[eternal reef]

I am not too sure, I want to stay as low as possible, I am gonna go with a 512gb nvme, maybe my old sata drive, 16gb of ddr4 and a 3600

So like £350

idk used prices

[tidal geyser]

for the pool to store it on i would do raid1 nvme

[lapis condor]

Do note you'll have to have some sort of graphics device to setup the server

[tidal geyser]

and sata boot drive

[lapis condor]

Then you can run it headless after setting it all up

[eternal reef]

I have an old gt 730

[tidal geyser]

nice

[eternal reef]

What does raid1 actually do?

[tidal geyser]

mirror

[eternal reef]

?

[tidal geyser]

aka data from one drive goes to the other

it means if one drive dies you still have the data

[eternal reef]

like for backups and stuff

alr

[tidal geyser]

or just being able to still use it if one fails

[eternal reef]

I'll use my old sata 512gb for the boot and buy a nvme (do all nvme's support raid1??)

[tidal geyser]

software raid yea

not hardware, hardware is something you should never do unless you REALLY know what you are doing

[eternal reef]

any specific brands that do/dont have any problems with it

[tidal geyser]

PRODUCT not brand

[eternal reef]

yeah

[tidal geyser]

sn580 and mp44l are both good picks

[eternal reef]

I'll go with an sn580 then prolly

[tidal geyser]

what OS will you be running

if you say windows then i will really mess ya up lad

[eternal reef]

alr

I will use some distro of linux then

but I am not familliar with it

[tidal geyser]

there is proxmox

[eternal reef]

Ig I don't need to be tho

I'll have a look at some yt tutorials

do all mobos support raid1

[tidal geyser]

i just run truenas scale

[tidal geyser]

i just said software

[eternal reef]

Ik just didn't know if they needed a chip to run it

even if it was software

[tidal geyser]

ok fair enough

i just run my servers from truenas scale

[eternal reef]

ok

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/J2Q6Kq

Cheaper than I thought it'd be

I alr own the ssd and case tho

one of the ssds*

[latent pasture]

why not get cheep G cpu with igpu

[eternal reef]

I alr have the gt 730

[latent pasture]

ur not gonna do video processing on that gt 730 anyway bc it doesnt have the hardware

oh keep it then

or heck even with that why not still go for even cheaper
its not like storage is demanding to run

[tidal geyser]

you need a motherboard with 2 nvme slots

[eternal reef]

I have a sata ssd

and an nvme

[tidal geyser]

good thing thats not his plan

[tidal geyser]

should not raid that

[eternal reef]

will I need 2 nvme's?

[tidal geyser]

you do not need it but its a very smart move to do

[hoary tree]

I honestly wonder why AMD sucks at RT so much (Even with RDNA 4 they are still far behind)

Because even intel somehow makes AMD look bad in that department

[eternal reef]

Might as well, it is £35

[tidal geyser]

nvidia were the first on the table to do RT

[tidal geyser]

you can also consider doing a bit more and going for 1TB

[hoary tree]

AMD still should have been able to catch up

[tidal geyser]

intel made a new architecture from the ground up

[hoary tree]

Intel is already matching or is slightly behind Nvidia in RT

[eternal reef]

defo wont need it, it is just for minecraft

[tidal geyser]

the company who is now sitting at like 10% vs 90% marketshare

[tidal geyser]

minecraft can become big or you can use the server for more things

[latent pasture]

yeah people think making the architecture from scracth would make them worse, but its actually better
u get to make it with the newest tech instead of zombying stuff youve done in the past

[eternal reef]

my biggest minecraft world ever was 60gb and that had over 4k hours on it

[hoary tree]

Also, on another note, The Galaxy Z Flip7 allegedly looks like this

[ripe spire]

Wdym u don’t know how much each one is, didn’t u buy them? Look at the receipt ma dude

[hoary tree]

The bezel on the cover screen is 👌

[tidal geyser]

o well 512 should be fine

[latent pasture]

now that the trifold one on the other brand is out, a half fold like this is dead imo

[hoary tree]

They're not

[eternal reef]

are nvme's m/b keys?

I want to sort on pcpp for 2 slots

[hoary tree]

The half fold ones are the most practical for most people and are the ones that sell best

[tidal geyser]

you are also able to work better with the software side too and a major reason why rebar and good cpu is so needed

[latent pasture]

it is
why do u fold it? to use less space

[hoary tree]

The "Trifold" (They only fold twice.) phones are not practical and are not affordable for most people

[tidal geyser]

yes

[hoary tree]

Yes

[tidal geyser]

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/DLcG3C/msi-b550m-pro-vdh-micro-atx-am4-motherboard-b550m-pro-vdh

[hoary tree]

Its EXTREMELY useful for small pockets and small bags

[latent pasture]

doesnt that make the smaller fold even better

[eternal reef]

👍🏾

[tidal geyser]

you could also just buy a old used am4 pc and upgrade

thats what i do

[latent pasture]

pillage

why do u wanna raid anyway

[tidal geyser]

redundancy is life

but yeah no defo gonna force him to do software

yes you are

[latent pasture]

i didnt read that right

yea its only for the sata that has 4

[tidal geyser]

yus

[spiral estuary]

does the 9070xt have a 2x8 pin or is it 3x8

[lapis condor]

2x8, some have 12v2x6

[lethal bay]

There’s 3x8 cards iirc

Yeah there’s like five 3x8 models

Nvidia right now:

[tawdry pond]

If GPU recommends 800W PSU, would 750W PSU still be fine?

[tidal geyser]

what gpu and cpu

and what 750w psu

[tawdry pond]

Sapphire Nitro+ 9070 XT and CPU is 5800X3D
seasonic prime GX 750W PSU

[tidal geyser]

so 300w gpu and what 100w max cpu

[tawdry pond]

So it'll be more than fine

[tough pilot]

I can’t even afford this I’m in debt

[random gyro]

i can !!

[lapis condor]

350W

Spikes to 415 under load sometimes

304W TDP ofc but
Well

[lethal bay]

man if the 9070XT matched the XTX in raster I’d buy it no hesitation

[lapis condor]

It has oc potential

[tawdry pond]

I'm replacing my 4070 super with that,

[cosmic stratus]

https://youtu.be/O_Sn3t3cmR0?si=92vUC6OO0GCJoWXN

and yall wanna laugh at phone "power users" smh

[lapis condor]

TPU got an additional 8% atop their normal scores with an oc

[lethal bay]

sure but like I don’t run my daily OC’d typically

[random gyro]

man its better in every way slightly slower raster

[lethal bay]

I know but when I already have an XTX… yk?

[random gyro]

think about tge rdna 4

[lapis condor]

Sell

[random gyro]

yeah tuff spot

[lethal bay]

ugh

[lapis condor]

what

[cosmic stratus]

does it not match with a heavy OC? I saw it was pretty close in tests already

[random gyro]

id sell u can gain monney and get a better gpu for the future

[lapis condor]

Mac wdym you dont run your system on the edge of stability

[cosmic stratus]

this # dawg 😭

[lapis condor]

[lethal bay]

yeah the only thing OC’d by definition in my rig is ram

I always go full tilt on ram

[random gyro]

i use a 7700x so my 9070xt gonna be in lovr

[lapis condor]

Me running my ddr5-8000 tune where it's not quite stable but idgaf

[lethal bay]

I efficiency tune my CPU and run my GPU basically stock lmao

[lapis condor]

Efficiency tunes are boring as hell

[random gyro]

2 more hours mannnnnn

[cosmic stratus]

listen... there is literally NOTHING wrong with overclocking unless your temps are too close to TJmax like 95-100c thermal limits

[lethal bay]

never hitting 75C is gangster tho

[lapis condor]

Yeah but what's the point of thermal headroom if you don't use it

[tawdry pond]

I do hope the going from 4070 super to 9070xt won't be as dumb move as I did when I got 6700xt and month later went over to 4070 super

[cosmic stratus]

right???

I dont run my pc open case for nothing

[lethal bay]

I’m aware bro

[cosmic stratus]

[random gyro]

sell the super?

isnt it crazy for 500 less dollars u can have a BETTER card. rip nividia

[lethal bay]

but when you have an XTX in a smaller case things get toasty

Plus I’m moving to 4K soon so the extra vram of the XTX will be nice

[lapis condor]

Drill speed holes in the case

[lethal bay]

It has holes

[plush wren]

https://tenor.com/view/big-bird-door-gif-23823638

[tawdry pond]

yup, gonna exactly do that once I get my hands on the 9070xt

[random gyro]

if ur going 4k thats the ONLY way the xtx is better then then 9070xt so

im pretty sure

[lethal bay]

my room not increasing 10F lmao

[lethal bay]

nah it’s technically better at 1440p too but like ugh

[random gyro]

im going from 9400f 2060 to 7700x 9070xt

[lethal bay]

Just need to convince myself holding out for next gen is worth

But my hardware addiction dude FUCK

That dust buildup is crazy

[random gyro]

[obtuse raven]

No, that’s copper

is furmark good for stability testing ?

[random gyro]

how would you clean the dust? just a micro?

cus between the fans looks miserable

[lethal bay]

nah

[vague talon]

GB2590HSU-B5

Is cheap where I live, worth it?

[west wagon]

damn, what you recommend?

[obtuse raven]

Yeah

Or an vacuum

[random gyro]

yeah makes sense i see people use toothrbushes to

[obtuse raven]

Lemme go get the vacuum

[true stirrup]

3DMark

[west wagon]

the free one works alright ?

[lapis condor]

No balls

[random gyro]

is the xfx the best 9070xt? i want sapphire but ill settle

[true stirrup]

Yeah

[west wagon]

alright thanks

[cosmic stratus]

nope.... I can run furmark for hours but still crash in a workload like minecraft with rethinking voxel shaders

[lapis condor]

They're all within 5% of each other

[random gyro]

i want peek

[west wagon]

well i got occt installed already it's just as good ?

[cosmic stratus]

oh so an overclocking closes the gap then

[little spear]

Is latest nvidia driver causing issues ?

[true stirrup]

What are you OCing?

Just the GPU?

[west wagon]

a 6800XT, undervolting

[random gyro]

whats best even if its not noticeable

[true stirrup]

I mean you can also run OCCT if you want
But I really do recommend 3DMark because you also see the score difference

[west wagon]

oooooh i forgot about this part, yep going for 3dmark

[cosmic stratus]

I suggest the usage of MPT and red bios editor

[cosmic stratus]

LMFAO only "MOST VIDEOS" ad free is wild for paying ANYTHING monthly

[jagged hazel]

Mhm

I wonder what videos aren't ad free

[ebon marlin]

If it's a tv box it's most likely android meaning you'll have access to google play store which you can use to download Firefox as it supports extensions like adblockers

[fresh escarp]

noticed a thing, the motherboard website says:

AMD Ryzen series CPUs (Matisse) support DDR4 3200 / 2933 / 2667 / 2400 / 2133 ECC & non-ECC, un-buffered memory

which is what my cpu is (r5 3600), but then how in XMP i see 3600mhz option if the motherboard/cpu doesn't support? i am confused, well cpu probs support but i am lost lmao

[jagged hazel]

No i mean it's from my tv provider. Like a cable box. I should've just said that

[ebon marlin]

Those are jedec speeds aka speeds without xmp

[jagged hazel]

So I'm pretty sure even the uh way you can block ads on the entire network with like a server and whatnot wouldn't work either

[sly epoch]

guys I have big problem

[jagged hazel]

Hm?

[sly epoch]

So my 5080 came with this

[true stirrup]

The motherboard will just tune down the ram

[sinful cobalt]

which is what its supposed to come with

[jagged hazel]

You have a 5080 what exactly is the problem? /hj

[sly epoch]

no

so like my psu has this

[jagged hazel]

You don't have enough connectors?

[tidal geyser]

nice

[ebon marlin]

The psu has a 12vhpwr cable no need to mess with the included adapter the adapter is only for ppl without the 12vhpwr on their psu

[hoary tree]

The nothing phone 3a and 3a pro make massive compromises in areas such as storage and ram

[sly epoch]

so I have used the top one for my gpu right but the cable only has a total of 16pins but the adapter requires three 8 pins. But the PCIE port just below the 12pin one on my psu is being used by my Fan controller

[strange atlas]

Can anybody tell me the differences between Western Digital SN580 and Kioxia Exceria Plus G3 i heard sn580 is better but is it 11 dollar better than what kioxia g3 does

[sage ocean]

does the % mean of all traffic? 16 percent of all wepage content i viewed was ads and got blocked?? thats insane

[ebon marlin]

They're all nvme ssd's they'll all work the same and just as fast

There is no noticeable difference between them

[strange atlas]

but yesterday i have said this they still said get sn580

[sly epoch]

no I dont have one

[true stirrup]

I mean nand is pretty important

[sly epoch]

my psu only comes with a 12pin to 16pin

[ebon marlin]

But ur psu has a 12vhpwr header so it comes with a 12vhpwr cable

If u bought the PSU used I'd contact the seller for the cable

[ebon marlin]

Sn580 is a reliable and easy pick but in the end it doesn't really matter

[strange atlas]

any chance you can tell me the difference between these 2 @true stirrup

[strange atlas]

Oh so its like brand thing

[ebon marlin]

Pretty much

[true stirrup]

Between those two it doesn't matter

[ebon marlin]

Nvme ssd's are already very good and very fast that there's no real difference between them

[true stirrup]

SN580 is technically faster and has a higher TBW but you won't really notice it

[true stirrup]

Except again nand

[ebon marlin]

You won't be able to tell the difference between a gen3 ssd and a gen5 ssd load times for example nvme's are already very fast

[sly epoch]

is it this one?

The one side says PSU and the other is saying 600w

[tidal geyser]

nice

[strange atlas]

got it thank you

[mortal venture]

Another day another pc

[ebon marlin]

Should be it

[gilded sage]

4070s or 7800xt paired with a 9800x3d for streaming and comp fortnite?

[strange atlas]

apparently kioxia has double amount of tbw

No i was lying left is sn 580

[ebon marlin]

Because it's double the size too

[tidal geyser]

9070 xt

[strange atlas]

Ooh so its gen 3 ssd

Thats why everybody were telling me do not get it

[gilded sage]

how much does it cost in the uk?

[tidal geyser]

570

[ebon marlin]

569£

[gilded sage]

is it hard to get since it jiust came out?

[tidal geyser]

its not out yet

[ebon marlin]

Not hard there's lots of stock

[gilded sage]

oh okay

[tidal geyser]

well not in the uk still 1hr and 40min i think

[gilded sage]

is it 570 on amd website?

[ebon marlin]

One retailer in Uk has over 1000 of one model which is the msrp model

[tidal geyser]

i know amd has a store but do not use it

[ebon marlin]

They don't have a FE model

[gilded sage]

wheres best place to buy then?

[ebon marlin]

Prolly overclockers

.co.uk

[real lantern]

uhh guys why is Ublock origin removed for the google extension store!?

[tidal geyser]

cheese cake

[strange atlas]

I wonder even then if i should get it 11 dollars less then sn580 costs

[true stirrup]

Time to use Firefox

[ebon marlin]

Because google

[strange atlas]

4 left in stock also

[tidal geyser]

WHYYY does nobody fkn read or watch anything

this has been everywhere

[real lantern]

idk i've just noticed it

[tidal geyser]

google said they were going to do it and even did it and now did it again

[real lantern]

i know it has to do with manifest

[tidal geyser]

just go firefox and be done with it

[strange atlas]

Their youtube premium and all were useless cause of adblockers

[frail delta]

Or Edge!

[tidal geyser]

it runs on chromium

[real lantern]

i pay for youtube family premium

[frail delta]

Which does not matter

[tidal geyser]

it does when its google that controls it

[frail delta]

Edge still has full Manifest v2 support

[tidal geyser]

wonder how much longer it will last

[strange atlas]

https://tenor.com/view/smile-monkey-orangutan-smiliong-orangutan-ape-gif-21939747

[real lantern]

anyway you can still turn on ublock origin

[frail delta]

The Microsoft Edge team will independently decide on MV3 migration timelines for Microsoft Edge Add-ons and share an update here.

No, Google does not :)

[ebon marlin]

I travel often so premium comes very handy been a premium sub since 2021

[strange atlas]

Are these matters

[tidal geyser]

just read what we have said

[ebon marlin]

Hmb is nice

[strange atlas]

i think i was using firefox on mobile it still lets you use adblocker

[true stirrup]

It does

[ebon marlin]

Idc about the ads

The downloads

[livid fern]

Both have HMB. versus is using info from userbenchmark

[ebon marlin]

I can download stuff and watch when I have no network

[strange atlas]

Oh you can do that? no way

[strange atlas]

Oh thank you man

Its 10 dollars less than sn580 costs i think i'm gonna get it

[gilded sage]

will the 9070 fit into a Cooler Master MasterBox TD500 Mesh V2 ATX Mid Tower Case?

[tidal geyser]

use pcpartpicker

also grab a 9070 xt instead

[jagged hazel]

Colon three

[strange atlas]

I'm waiting for a sn580 f kioxia

no way it behaves like that at %80 full

All of my disks are always close to %100 full

[blazing onyx]

googles trying to remove ad blocks

[jagged hazel]

I'm glad my ad block is still around

[blazing onyx]

Right? i have two on mine

which thankfully arent being yoinked because im using opera

[jagged hazel]

I use arc on my pc

[blazing onyx]

(the day my twitch adblock gets taken from me is the day i stop watching twitches stupid ass ads)

[jagged hazel]

Real

I kinda miss mixer

[blazing onyx]

Though, something else funny that i found

[blazing onyx]

horrible

[jagged hazel]

I personally liked mixer ngl

[blazing onyx]

Opera, has a thing where i can pop out videos into a new window.

however it apparently works on the preview for twitch streams while theres an ad playing

and it had sound 🤣

[jagged hazel]

That's neat

[blazing onyx]

i absolutly despise any media platforms owned by microsoft

[jagged hazel]

But I think that only works because twitch added the stream preview during ads

Still having sound is funny

[blazing onyx]

because of couse, since it was a goto platform for xbox, they forced all their bullshit chat restrictions on it

[jagged hazel]

Yeah but I mean I liked it better than twitch

And the latency could be pretty good too

[blazing onyx]

twitch at least lets you swear without getting banned for a week

like holy shit microsoft calm the hell down

we have shit like gta v on xbox, and ill get muted for a day for saying ass like jesus christ

we need to just like. revert back to the black ops 2 days. and leave it there

[jagged hazel]

Yeah I guess

Mixer is gone anyway so doesn't matter

[blazing onyx]

i wonder why

owned it for a whole 4 years, turned it to shit to the point that it died to twitch

[ebon marlin]

Maybe not that far

[jagged hazel]

Other than twitch what is there really

[blazing onyx]

yes, please, bring back the golden days

[jagged hazel]

YouTube live?

[ebon marlin]

Definitely not as a person who was in that time

Moderation for hate speech is good imo

[tidal geyser]

youtube is cooler as you can direct stream av1 to it

[blazing onyx]

i would rather have slurs being yelled at me in real time than whatever this censorship bullshit is that xbox has now

[jagged hazel]

"In real time"

[blazing onyx]

you know whos good for moderating hate speech? game devs. the players themselves

theres soo much variation in age ratings of games for the company to be restricting chat on pretty much anyone

limit chat to minors, restrict nsfw profiles,
leave the goddamn private messages and in game chats alone

[ebon marlin]

An 18+ game should still have moderation and filters for hate speech but normal swears are fine aslong as not used to degrade others

[blazing onyx]

like, why am i being punished for talking about gta v to my fellow adults in private messages just because kids exist on the platform at all

[ebon marlin]

If you cannot game without throwing a bunch of slurs for no reason then hate to break it to you but gaming isn't for you

[tidal geyser]

i just do not use those words

[ebon marlin]

Not hard to not use em too

[tidal geyser]

what if it happens outside of gaming too?

[grizzled frost]

then you're a shitty person?

[fresh escarp]

even tho i upgraded ram to 16gb last year, i start to realize more i'll have to go 32gb, but would it be good idea, considering i have old motherboad: https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/A320M-DVS R4.0/A320M-DVS R4.0 Rev 4.02.asp#Specification

[blazing onyx]

like, im a bi furry, i get just about every insult thrown at me.

do i act like a little bitch about it and whine to everyone? no

[tidal geyser]

just reinstall windows and do not be as wasteful

[tidal geyser]

well that makes most of my grade that then

[ebon marlin]

Then I'd recommend a visiting a psychologist

[fresh escarp]

huh? wasteful of using software and what has installing windows would do lmao

[tidal geyser]

windows only uses 4GB

[tame siren]

is anyone elses gta v enhanced also running on a single core exclusively? for me its basically frying core 4 and bottlenecking hard (sub 30% gpu usage peak)

[tidal geyser]

every time i install windows again on a pc from 64 to 8GB of ram total its 4GB windows will use

[tidal geyser]

its a game made for the ps3

[ebon marlin]

Not enhanced

[solar moat]

less if you remove all the nomral blote

[tidal geyser]

no shit is it single core

[ebon marlin]

Enhanced was made for ps5/xbox series x

[tidal geyser]

its built on top of a game that is made for the ps3

[solar moat]

aka better textuer /shadose

[tidal geyser]

well not even built on top of just replaced some textures and such

[tame siren]

i expected enhanced to be a bit better at distributing load than legacy but its worse as far as ive experienced

[ebon marlin]

There's much more than those 2

[fresh escarp]

yeah but i wasn't reffering windows being the reason it was on 69% currently, ofc i'm doing more than just starting atm at discord and having it that %, wasn't about windows, was about the ram itself and the whole speed thing

[tidal geyser]

anyways you should not notice it since the game is stuck at 120 fps

[ebon marlin]

Nah

They removed the limit

It's unlocked now iirc

[tidal geyser]

that other part is you not starting software you do not need

[tame siren]

well im getting below 60 without rt since its at 20% gpu most of the time

[tidal geyser]

specs

[ebon marlin]

Increase ur settings

[tame siren]

2060s, r5 4500

[tidal geyser]

does it still have the stutter zone at 160-180 before

[tidal geyser]

maxed out settings no rt

[ebon marlin]

No idea haven't seen anything about it yet

just saw the update

[fresh escarp]

i have them all off that i need, so i don't know what you're trying to tell, either way i got my answer from person who understood /shrug

[tame siren]

sub 60 and still loading up a single core fully

[tidal geyser]

well its the same game sooo i would suspect its still the same case if its unlocked

[tame siren]

and nowhere near 60% gpu usage even

lmao

[tidal geyser]

well your cpu is pretty shit

[tame siren]

2x frame scaling gets me above 100

[tame siren]

i am well aware thank you, unfortunately im poor af and couldnt even afford a 5600 rn

id rather single core performance of my iphone 14

[fresh escarp]

ay you'll get there, some people have not even close to what you have so as long you can still spend time doing things, all it matters u kno

[blazing onyx]

4500 aint that bad

like, noticably worse than 5600, but its still not the worst of things

[fresh escarp]

yea its better than mine lmao

idk about the gpu but still

[blazing onyx]

?

what gpu you got?

[fresh escarp]

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/sapphire-pulse-rx-6600-xt.b9181

[blazing onyx]

you win

[fresh escarp]

oh.

[blazing onyx]

6600 xt vs a 2060

[tidal geyser]

it really is 😐

[tidal geyser]

it has 8MB of l3 cache

[fresh escarp]

that i didn't know, thank u for telling

[blazing onyx]

are we reverting back to the wholee 12100f vs r5 5500 again lmao

[tidal geyser]

it has as much l3 cache as a first gen r3

[tidal geyser]

mate for gaming it SUCKS

[blazing onyx]

its ryzen, if its not x3d it inheriently sucks at gaming

thats just ryzen

[ebon marlin]

What is pal blabbering about

[fresh escarp]

i have ryzen 3 1200 i think sitting i just remembered lmao and 1030 gpu sitting hm

[tidal geyser]

what??

the r5 7600 beats the r7 5800X3D in a lot of games

[blazing onyx]

since you seem to think that l3 cache is the only damn thing that defines a cpu

[ebon marlin]

No but it's pretty important

[tidal geyser]

its not?

[ebon marlin]

Especially when you have very little of it like on the 4500

[tidal geyser]

we are talking about gaming here

[tidal geyser]

same amount of l3 as a ryzen 3

[blazing onyx]

still would love if xfx would get off their asses and answer me

[tidal geyser]

zen 2 cores are always fun but not for gaming with only 8MB of cache l3

[blazing onyx]

but anyways. i guess ill go ahead and swap gpus in my desktop. see if i can get my bios to open for once

[tidal geyser]

why not go to the bios from windows

[blazing onyx]

it wont let me

[tidal geyser]

well windows recovery thingy

[tidal geyser]

then you might not have a configurable bios

what motherboard

[blazing onyx]

i do

but i get this instead of the bios

same with boot selection

[fresh escarp]

🤯

[blazing onyx]

gpus 2 vbios are corrupted somehow

[brazen glen]

Lmao

lol, even

[cosmic stratus]

buddy, you're making the green role look bad with this level of clueless-ness

[foggy valley]

That looks like a broken video card

[blazing onyx]

oh boohoo

[blazing onyx]

i know, the vbios are corrupted

[tidal geyser]

wait is the only issue you cant get into bios

[brazen glen]

That’s just flat out wrong

[tidal geyser]

but the card works without any other issues

[foggy valley]

It usually more blocky when gpu is bad. Ouch

[blazing onyx]

literally only 3 issues, cant open bios, cant open boot selection, and amd drivers love to crash in windows

other than that, perfectly fine lmao

[cosmic stratus]

No it doesnt but when it comes to gaming it does... if you wernt gonna buy the cpu for gaming then we wouldnt be talking about cach so much

[foggy valley]

Blend that pc

[tame siren]

2060 super beats the 6600 tho i believe, and thats what i have

also ive tried all settings now

everything except max rt with frame scaling gets me around 60fps

no vsync or frame limit on

[brazen glen]

The 2060 super definitely beats a 6600

But not a regular one

[blazing onyx]

that might be, the closest comparison i have seen on ANY card lmao

[blazing onyx]

Yea pretty much, Windows opens just fine

[tame siren]

yeah its close but more games are optimized for nvidia prob

[woeful crown]

Problem "solved". My 9800X3D died. I tested different cpu and it works in same system...

[blazing onyx]

i get driver crashes like no tommorow, but it opens windows fine

[mellow shadow]

Your GPU is artifacting?

[blazing onyx]

Only on the bios and boot selection

[mellow shadow]

Idk bake it in the oven to reflow the solder can’t break it anymore

[sleek ibex]

Report from the Micro Center in Madison Heights, MI

[mellow shadow]

Oh

[blazing onyx]

thats why im confused lmao

[valid fiber]

i gues this is about certain GPU's

[ebon marlin]

6600xt is faster than the 2070 this bench is pretty bs

[mellow shadow]

For a second I thought those massive slabs of concrete were doors

[tidal geyser]

i think he means gaming

[brazen glen]

Here’s my store

That’s literally the ONLY 5070s they have

[tidal geyser]

as those results are from UBM

[blazing onyx]

like, how tf is it gonna artifact on bios and boot select, and then open windows fine

[fresh escarp]

so is the rx 6600 xt whatso faster or yall be tripping 😭

[ebon marlin]

I recommend using credible benchmarks like Tomshardware Gpu hierarchy which has a wide selection of gpus + they're credible

[blazing onyx]

that is NOT ubm

[tame siren]

i can deadass go high rt with 1.5x scaling and im still around the 50-60fps i get with high preset no rt with dlss

[brazen glen]

The 6600xt is about 10 percent faster than the 2060 super

It’s about the same raster as a 1080ti

[ebon marlin]

Still as bad as ubm

[tidal geyser]

it uses the same data

[blazing onyx]

technical city?

[ebon marlin]

https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gpu-hierarchy,4388.html

[tidal geyser]

the 6600 xt is about 10% faster then the 60 super

[valid fiber]

i think AMD missed an opportunity to beat NVIDIA by simply having more vram

[random gyro]

less then a hour

[ebon marlin]

Actual credible benchmark with a wide selection of gpus

[tidal geyser]

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/radeon-rx-6600-xt.c3774

or TPU

[ebon marlin]

Tpu is pretty isn't really that good

[fresh escarp]

mine looks very sigma

[blazing onyx]

anyways, any idea what actually could do this? lmao

[ebon marlin]

Tpu is not consistent

[random gyro]

cant wait to order the 9070xt ayyyyyy

[tidal geyser]

fair

[ebon marlin]

I ordered a 7800xt last night only for MH Wilds

[valid fiber]

when is the 9070 release?

[tidal geyser]

i have a fun link i forgot about, https://gpu-perf-comparison.vercel.app/

[random gyro]

9 est

[blazing onyx]

oh hell im just using my laptop 4070

still getting a good 90 fps

[random gyro]

i have a 7900xt but its getting sent back

[ebon marlin]

I'm probably gonna order another 7800xt for MH Wilds

[random gyro]

stock still fine so far?

[blazing onyx]

?

[valid fiber]

so in less than an hour?

[random gyro]

yes

8:12 for me so 48 minutes

[valid fiber]

well i hope they have enough stock

[fresh escarp]

this be difference between my old gpu and current, tho i had 3gb variant on 1060, so it's a nice upgrade i think

[random gyro]

they will dont worr

just be there that minute u will b good

[tidal geyser]

so put in the 3GB version

[glass scaffold]

Same, otherwise it’s looking like a 7900xt angle

[fresh escarp]

didn't show up there

otherwise i would've

[blazing onyx]

you wanna know what i find hilarious,

the amount of dumb people on the mhwilds facebook pages.
every single one of them complainig about optimization. meanwhile trying to run the game on a 3060 and some low tier cpus

[random gyro]

i have a sapphire 7900xt havent oponed it yet bought it 650 usd in case 9070xt has no stock

[fresh escarp]

is it real or cap that the gpu i have is whatso faster than a 3060? or between it and the TI version?

[latent pasture]

complaining it doesnt work on a 3060 when you set its graphics to look like 2008 game is justified

[glass scaffold]

Yeah the one I found is currently sat at 700, if i can’t grab the 9070xt I’ll at least end up with more vram

[neat flame]

yea itll be slightly faster than 7900xt

just below the xtx

[random gyro]

yeah and way better rt

[neat flame]

yep

[brazen glen]

It’s faster in raster and has less vram

[neat flame]

and fsr4 too

[fresh escarp]

what did u just say 😭 what's raster

[tidal geyser]

its A LOT faster then a 3060

[random gyro]

and in general it has ai cores which the 7000 series doesnt even have at all so future updates for anything ai involved

[wanton lynx]

Is there a 9070 XT version you guys would recommend? I see so many

[random gyro]

yes

[lapis condor]

The XT is perhaps one of the best stocked cards on launch

[tidal geyser]

cheapest

[glass scaffold]

Anyone know how likely it’ll be for me to have to bios flash using a 7600 on a b650?

[sinful cobalt]

cheapest u can find

[lapis condor]

OverclockersUK has >1000 of just the sapphire models of 9070 XT lol

[grizzled frost]

basically not-rt performance

[fresh escarp]

wait whaa, i thought it was some cap from the tiktoks and few video thumbnails i saw, what'd he the reason for that? 🗿

[neat flame]

i think the bifrost from acer looks cool, but dont know its price

[lapis condor]

Extremely unlikely but you should go to the latest bios anyway

[tidal geyser]

always been zero

[blazing onyx]

like. ryzen 5 7600?

[random gyro]

im getting xfx swift

[wanton lynx]

So the OC versions aren't really worth the price increase?

[glass scaffold]

Aye

[grizzled frost]

correct

[lapis condor]

No, never have been worth it, never will be worth ot

[latent pasture]

you can just oc on ur own lmao

[valid fiber]

better in traditional rendering (rasterization)

[fresh escarp]

ooh, well i'm not really a RT user that gonna use it so that's awesome, ty for telling, glad to hear people know about the rx alot

[wanton lynx]

Surely

[blazing onyx]

7000 is the first generation of AM5 cpus. you shouldnt have to flash Any am5 boards for it

[fresh escarp]

ooh, that's pretty awesome

[wanton lynx]

But thanks 🙂

[lapis talon]

Well yes but the oc ones look nicer imo

[random gyro]

if it was a extra 40-50 dollars yeah 200 hell no

[lapis talon]

But still doesn't justify the extra cost

[random gyro]

i have a all black no rgb build so

[fresh escarp]

ay i'm glad i got this gpu, i got for 185eur used i've tested it heavely and the temps stay close to 70c which for me is awesome

[glass scaffold]

Oh awesome, that makes life a lot easier, other option was getting a 5600/x but am4 for my b450 but saw flash was almost certain for that

[lapis talon]

I don't really have bestbuy over here but how do I order the card from bestbuy in NYC?

[valid fiber]

RGB is useless

[latent pasture]

you already have am4 system?

[blazing onyx]

yea but most of those have bios flashback

[latent pasture]

a lot rarer on am4

[glass scaffold]

Currently sat with a 2600 on a b450 plus

[fresh escarp]

then i wonder if i OC the gpu, would it be worth bothering with it, as 5% increase could mean like maybe 10fps extra in roblox lmao

[blazing onyx]

really?

[lapis talon]

Anyone

[ebon marlin]

https://videocardz.com/newz/retailer-confirms-radeon-rx-9070-msrp-only-applies-to-first-shipments-price-set-to-increase-later

[blazing onyx]

even on 400 chipsets?

[lapis condor]

This was a Swedish retailer

[latent pasture]

then why not just flash bios with ur current cpu
get 5600 to extend ur pcs life for quite a while longer
or 5000x3d

[blazing onyx]

Oh wait yea lmao

[tidal geyser]

5% XD

[sly epoch]

how do I fix my pc from showing the american megatrends when I have windows installed and it doest boot windows automatically

[grizzled frost]

you know roblox is fps capped right?

[blazing onyx]

if you already have an am4 board and working cpu then just update bios and upgrade the gpu

[fresh escarp]

wait fr? 😭

[tidal geyser]

https://discordapp.com/channels/375436620578684930/1027757333117415424

[blazing onyx]

get bloxstrap

[elder quarry]

Isn’t Roblox capped at 60?

[fresh escarp]

ikik, i get the 240 on 1440p, but i ment in a silly way

[tidal geyser]

more like 0.5% with the best oc version of a modern card

[grizzled frost]

uncapping fps can cause issues with certain games

[fresh escarp]

oh my i should've put a different game, that was ment in a silly way

[grizzled frost]

since a fair few games tie things to the fps

[blazing onyx]

i have yet to see one that gets affected yet, considering most roblox game physics are server side

[fresh escarp]

like old Strucid (iykyk)

[grizzled frost]

one game i played ages ago made the stamina drop crazy fast when i unlocked it to 165fps

[blazing onyx]

strange

[grizzled frost]

could barely go 5 minutes without eating

[blazing onyx]

to be fair, i only use bloxstrap for pretty much every other setting lmao

especially the font

[glass scaffold]

I feel like swapping from a 2600 to a 5700x3d and staying on am4 is less future proof than going directly to 7600 on am5 no? Especially since performance is extremely similar regardless

[grizzled frost]

correct, though you’d have to buy a new mobo and ram

[blazing onyx]

its less future proof, but 5700x3d will handle almost any game you can think of to throw at it, even today

[grizzled frost]

since there is more upgrade potential from a 7600 than from a 5700x3d

[glass scaffold]

And the 7600 won’t?

[proud jay]

u would have to buy a new mobo and RAM kit for it tho

[blazing onyx]

it will, but that means forking up the money for a new motherboard, new cpu, ddr5 ram. and maybe a new psu

vs just, getting 1 cpu

[proud jay]

u wouldnt have to with a 5700x3d

[random gyro]

new build time!!

[lapis talon]

How do I reserve a 9070 xt on bestbuy

[latent pasture]

so u want to buy 7600 because u want it to be future proof? but what ur doing right now is instead of taking advantage of the upgradability of am4 ur just skipping to am5
so when ur 7600 gets old in the future, r u just gonna buy am6 with its ryzen 5 11600 or something and buying for future proof was useless
so, do you care abt upgradeability or not

[random gyro]

cant gotta get it from me first

[lapis condor]

You don't

[grizzled frost]

you wait till it launches then buy it as fast as possible

[tidal geyser]

they have stock

[grizzled frost]

they don’t do preorders at all

[lapis talon]

Ah I saw it saying sum about reserving it on the site and that's why I asked

[valid fiber]

depends on what you need.
when i build my new system at the end of 2023 i went for AM4 because the price for all components were so much cheaper that it made sense for me
i don't regret it. the 5800x3d is doing a great job and is all i need

[random gyro]

nah there already sold out gg

[grizzled frost]

unless you’re an employee there and five finger discount yourself a gpu

[lapis talon]

Can I order it for pickup as soon as it releases

[random gyro]

buy it for pickup yeah

no pre

[blazing onyx]

oops how did my name get first on this order list. silly me

[glass scaffold]

It’s more of a 1 stop upgrade for now, o haven’t upgraded for around 6-7 years from my 2600 and 2060 combo, so o don’t plan on doing it again for a similar period of time with given cpu and either a 7900xt/9070xt

[proud jay]

is buying a 9070 just as dumb as buying a 5070?
or is the 5070 dumber

[random gyro]

yes

[blazing onyx]

5070 is WAYYYY dumber

[lapis talon]

Dunno how to make a bestbuy acc without a US phone number 🗿

[grizzled frost]

oh no! it seems a 9070xt has gone missing! how unfortunate, anyways

[proud jay]

[blazing onyx]

lmao

[fresh escarp]

just gonna post cause atm having work break so ik ill get alot of comments lmao

[blazing onyx]

Anyways, you all enjoy your 9070's, im gonna try and enjoy my 2nd broken rx 7600

[lapis talon]

If I order it for pickup, it technically means I ordered it right

[random gyro]

yes

[grizzled frost]

i’ll be happily enjoying my 4080S

[lapis talon]

Like I've secured one

[blazing onyx]

though i wonder what even is corrupting them at this point

[random gyro]

u buy it then say ur gonna pick it up

[glass scaffold]

Yeah I’m aware, currently tho the 7600 is half the price of the 5700x3d over here, and if their performance is similar i have no issue going for the cheaper version

[latent pasture]

so why not just get a 5700x3d
instead of buying new cpu mobo and ram, only to end up with similar performance anyway
which, with your upgrade strat, youll just replace with am6 and whatever ryzen 5 is there then

[lapis talon]

Ah, isn't there any cash payment option

[glass scaffold]

2x the price of a 7600 here, 800zl vs 1500

[random gyro]

i dont think so could be wrong if ur gonna pay cash go to a MC

[wanton lynx]

Media Markt / Saturn just listed 9070 XT complete PC systems in Germany (if anyone is interested)

[lapis talon]

That's the problem, all the microcenters are sort of far away

[latent pasture]

ok now include price of am5 motherboard and ddr5 6000 cl30 ram (unless u want to throw out 15-20% perf on that 7600 by getting slowass ram)

[random gyro]

yeah i doubt u can pay cash

[fresh escarp]

actually ey yall who where speaking about the rx i have, i forgot to ask or mention, on valorant i'm getting weirdly low fps, 200ish, i even put it on all lowest and disabled multirendering thingy, no difference, i think my 1060 did better unless im tripping, any ideas why's that?

[proud jay]

the price would even out when u buy urself a new RAM kit and mobo tho

[lapis talon]

Ah damn alright

[random gyro]

and idk if bestbuy has in store stock

[fresh escarp]

gawd daym that's fire

[true stirrup]

This is sick

[sacred meadow]

what cpu

[random gyro]

ask @tidal geyser what he thinks

[lapis talon]

Does microcenter have it up on their site?

[fresh escarp]

Ryzen 5 3600 😔

[sleek ibex]

[sacred meadow]

theres ur answer lol

[random gyro]

idk if u can order on microcenter

[fresh escarp]

but how if im not mistaken it did better when i had old gpu ._.

[glass scaffold]

The am5 ram and mobo I’ve found make the price almost equivalent to just getting the 5700, maybe a 100zl diff (30 dollars or so)

[lapis talon]

Idk what to do then

[glass scaffold]

6000mhz cl30 on the ram so nothing utterly awful

[random gyro]

deposit the money to a card order best buy maybe

[tidal geyser]

you cant get most stuff like that shipped on MC but MC has A LOT of stock

[grizzled frost]

correct, because then the gpu would be more of a bottleneck

[random gyro]

ask someone to use there card and pay them back with cash?

[latent pasture]

also are you looking at 5800x3d or 5700x3d

[grizzled frost]

now that you upgraded your gpu, your cpu is the bottleneck

[lapis talon]

Can I order it for pickup then

[glass scaffold]

5700

[lapis talon]

From microcenter

[tidal geyser]

not sure but probs not

[elder quarry]

How much does these fans cost

[lapis talon]

Damn

[fresh escarp]

awh meeen shit, and if i'd want to upgrade the cpu a bit?

[grizzled frost]

buy the best cpu that fits in your budget

[lapis talon]

Then is it fine if I go to the store at like 7 pm

[tidal geyser]

they should have enough stock to last a few days, just go to the local MC once you are able today

[lapis talon]

Alright

[elder quarry]

Still don’t think you can order online

Or reserve

[fresh escarp]

uh 40+ euros iirc, got them last year november or december on aliexpress, but after a while the hub is dying and isnt working properly sadly, so u dont wanna know what i do try start up the RGBS 🤣

[lapis talon]

Are you sure they have a lot of stock?

[blazing onyx]

well shit, guess i wont be using that other graphics card of mine after all. i dont have a displayport cable ;-;

[elder quarry]

Per?

[random gyro]

probably at least more then any gpu release in the past 7 years

[lapis talon]

And which non oc (close to $600) 9070xt would you recommend?

[fresh escarp]

no clue too lazy to find, why?

[foggy valley]

Never done jellyfin before, setup it yesterday and put it on reverse proxy. Imported some videos i had. Had to do some adjustments on crowdsec because i got banned. Otherwise Jellyfin app works great and all. Transcoding with my 1080ti that is overclocked to almost hit 2000mhz. Hovering around 1900-1980mhz.

I tried streamyfin but when i try to play it is just black. Installed the plugin and rebooted but no luck.

Downloaded Swiftfin eventually and that didn’t work either. But i got it working as aspect by changing the player to native in iOS. Wtf is wrong?

I want to use Streamyfin because i can download movies with it. Which is funny because when i do that and the movie is completely downloaded i can actually play it. But if i change sub or audio the app crashes and i can no longer play anything, or even if i login later i can’t play it

[fresh escarp]

its ARGB aigo fans btw

[tidal geyser]

maybe

[random gyro]

any except acer

[lapis talon]

Oh that's good

[tidal geyser]

cheapest

[lapis talon]

Won't that sell out instantly

[random gyro]

depdens where ur from

more populated areas will have more per MC

[blazing onyx]

find one thats a good brand, dont just automatically go for the cheapest

[fresh escarp]

@elder quarry 7 fans and controller

[lapis talon]

Uhh let's just say NYC

[latent pasture]

whats wrong with acer
the ones they had for intel were pretty ok
if not better than the trash like ventus from msi

[elder quarry]

Not if you are be4 at opening hours

[lapis talon]

Any specific one?

[random gyro]

then any mc will prob have 6x the stock lots of others would

new york is populated MC knows that so they will stock more because of it

[lapis talon]

Welp I hope it does 😭

[random gyro]

u should be okay

theyve been stocking for months

[lapis talon]

Only if my country had an actual distributor of amd gpus

[plucky frost]

how does RX 9070 XT compare to RX 7900 XT

[lapis talon]

Damn alright

[latent pasture]

watch any of the dozens of reviews

[random gyro]

faster rt, has ai cores rdna 4 slightly faster raster

[cosmic stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/google-exists-google-search-it-geekboy-geekboy-cz-gif-25933207

[random gyro]

and just the latest technology

[elder quarry]

Who is that

[cosmic stratus]

nvm I should say look on youtube

[cosmic stratus]

idek

[blazing onyx]

oh yay another just go look at google person

just what we needed in here 🙄

[random gyro]

gonna assume google was the first thing he did

[latent pasture]

abt equal in non rt, +45% in rt

[thin plover]

at least half of the questions asked here can also be solved by Google tho

[latent pasture]

so unless u regularly play rt its not worth changing

[plucky frost]

so not worth upgrading

[cosmic stratus]

it literally doesnt hurt to go have a look at benchmarks on youtube that do a WAY better job of explain than us?

do your research ppl, discord is NOT GOOGLE

[cinder raptor]

Not unless you really need a RT upgrade

[random gyro]

and maybe ur right but to be fair we are in a discord talking about complete none sense so why not help imo

[elder quarry]

@plain cypress

[latent pasture]

it also depending on game consumes the same/+10% more power than 7900xt so its basically just 70 by name

that performance didnt come from magic

[blazing onyx]

dont forget people. dont use the dedicated tech chat with the tech people in it for asking tech questions. just use the random ass things you find on google 👍

[gloomy sleet]

bettr

[blazing onyx]

anyways

[elder quarry]

No

[gloomy sleet]

o

[random gyro]

yeah like i said i GET the look it up thing but we are doing nothing better mines as well help doesnt hurt

[cosmic stratus]

there is a difference, its really not that simple smh

[plucky frost]

i dont need it thoroughly explained? i need a simple answer and when i googled i got results for xtx and not xt, its not illegal to ask a question, if you dont want to answer then dont?

[elder quarry]

Maybe in ray tracing and fake frames w/ upscaling yes

[blazing onyx]

how much faster actually IS the 9070 in rt?

[gloomy sleet]

yes

[random gyro]

a lot

[thin plover]

for questions like this when we don't know the answer we just refer to Google, cuz not everybody knows relative performance from the top of their head

[elder quarry]

9070 xt*
