soooo a 4070 super with 24gb vram
Looks like I got a crash
yep...
24gb
it’s 24
For science*
oh its 24 now wack

Man the 2nd test always kills my gpus xD
120W 5090M 😭
ooohhh i found a RTX 3090FE for $440
give us modt 5090m
it was so close to finishing too
WHERE
Yusss it takes away the cool down from temps and just goes hamm
@limber nacelle
ill buy it if you won't
Local
oof
I'm gonna blow up
I try to give it a few mins between runs let her breath hit 38c-40c and ramp back up(it's moderately cold rn mind you)
lemme see how much my local sells a 3090
There are like 4 3090's less than $500 here what
its so fucked where I live rn
$440
which state?
bruh the 5090 aorus white is flooding my local market
there was a $450 3090 earlier that sold super quick
$470
the one from newegg recently
I'd eat it just to have
ugh I don't want another tuf
big vram haha
buy evangelion 3090
I dont want another asus ampere card tbh
wait shit i should find someone with an evangelion 4090 and trade a 5090 for it
for $350
I'm only buying an fe or ftw3 this time
this 3090 is 500
my tuf had the most ungodly rear vram temps known to man
and you cant even buy a shim for it
this doesn’t mean anything prolly but i’ve had quite a few gpus and my ftw3 3090 is the first and only gpu that’s ever died on me
ehhhhh should be fine
just putting it out there as anecdotal
its just unlucky but anecdotal
ye I getchu
Honestly the msi expert was so good under loads beat my FE under full loads when I did like a month of mining with it
a vanguard launch edition 5090 selling for $3.9k
im most wary about gigabyte
😭
@limber nacelle 3090FE $500
unfortunately I'd get fucked if I bought that
i can prolly get him down to 480
shipping and customs and tariffs would screw me over bad
where u at
sad cause I'd totally buy that
;-;
up north
where up north lol
Cali 
far north
NAME

sales tax ;-;
canada
i see.
hence tariffs and taxes
anyone here a mousepad enthu
oh lmao I thought you were american lol
why does Albania have a good gpu market
nope
unironically tho the used gpu market here is fire
what im sayin
i know it's hard to do and a headache to do but can I make a reservoir-less watercooling system for my gpu? and how long would it take to bleed?
ahh man it aint stoppin
trebuchet
tiny ahh place
3d mark is taking overrr
reboot time again
Yusss
am5?
Not taking 10 seconds to boot?
yes
XD 
and its slow I bet
3070's here are like in abundance
3070 is shit so
My 7900x took like a minute to boot but my 9900x takes maybe 10-11 seconds it's so weird
it’s terrible
fair
oh I bet
Myte just be the new bios and pbo idk

1851, 1700 >>>
bass don't you have a 285k?
I do
how do you feel about it?
anecdotal but the people in this server who have arl seem very happy with it
Intels usually a really smooth feel that until my 9900x wasn't matched
intel cope
ohhh god LGA1851 😔
laughs at you training memory
For what I'm looking for the LGA 1851 rig (mostly workstation workloads) it does fairly well
oh I'd bet
I blame the mobo (as we all do)
yeah those ecores are wicked af on arl
Couldn't be us xD or our settings
it’s 2025 and we still haven’t solved this problem on mac and cheese boxes
Vert said frig this need more pasta
❤️
I want to pick up a 14900k but idk I only want to pay sub 500 cad for it
Big box wants you to spend more time looking at boxes
mostly cause I think the box is sick as shit
tell big box i said fuck u
cope all you want about amd but they will never match the aura of the lga1700 i9 packaging
the only boxes i like looking at are the boxes of yeston or maxsun gpus
Big box is not happy, you will be going in the timeout box
never!!
14700k outside avx512 and it's 200+w thing it had going on it was a great chip (limiting it's wattage fixed like everything I had an issue with to 170-190)
Mac gives +5 luck 
nyet
I like my intel system far more than my amd one
but tbf I don't have something modern for amd
I do yes
wut da hell did i do wrong kek
Lol, and that's fair I didn't love my 7900x it was still good but my 9900x is buttery
If over 300 core it myte just be mad at you, try keeping riva tuner closed and just run burner (you'll be ok temp wise and i know its fun to watch gets buggy sometimes)
specs?
5060
tf is a 5060
yea lemme see
RTX 5060

my guy got early access to 5060 fr

He's got a 9800x3d and a 5090 but smth is being funky could be the beta app, could be tuner, or could be settings but it'll take playing with
still is decent enough
for the price i paid i can't complain
how much did you pay?
hmmm yeah that’s really weird wtf
It take?
my core clocks were at 915 mhz for the benches
Well before it kicks up yeah it reads low don't mind that
5950x: $10 (shipping)
x570 godlike: $50
ram: $100
gpu0: $150
gpu1: $100 (but partially defective)
canadian dollars
ZAMN
Once the test starts should see 2700-3100
no no for the whole test
Under the results once it finishes
ok wtf
half of what I paid for my gpu 🥲
Hrmmm
Absolutely slayeddd
cpu is allegedly defective but I've never had issues with it
The rivatuner seems bugged
Top numbers have numbers behind them
Def only recommend using burner solo for now* it's causing something to misread
Either not clearing a variable or placing two in the same slot wich either way sucks
Poor vert just wanted to do a simple bench

AM Back had to finish making the mac
my fps is also low though and the benchmark is running in window mode
i found a RX6700XT for $230
take it
my brother sold me his rtx 3070 for 200
Also vert before turning on your pc did you enable your gaming switch on the gpu?
(Gif flashed to much keks)
USD?
Silent mode psshhsh, it's honestly pretty silent when not being pushed
yes
Lucky you
there are like a billion 3070's for $200 here
Damn
Bro here in Australia even 30 series cards are so expensive
Like stupidly expensive
200 USD is the equivalent of 318 AUD
And I’ve never seen a 3070 for that much
i found a 4070ti super for $850
They are like 600-800 AUD I’m pretty sure
but idk which to get a 4070ti super or 9070xt
I’m gonna get a 9070XT
Eventually
I still need to save
Both are good
Found da issue
What was it?
psa dont use voltage control in afterburner. it bricks the gpu
i currently have $615 im gonna go till $800 and my parents are gonna put in 800 too
Well at least you know now xD
1:30 am tings
rip what issues if you remember?
Man's rolling in the vibe
i turn of RTSS let’s try it now
W here its 6:30
Also this will for the first time in a loooong time I'll be having a pure air-cooled build since I do have a Thermalright Peerless Assassin 140 that I got from Amazon a couple days ago. This for me needs to be a workhorse that works and no thrills. Also will be replacing the fans for something like a couple P14 Maxs
Just realized it's nearly 11 where did the time gooo
pass me a wuh uh bo’ol
imma pass you a Byrek
:(
ty ty senpai
All good chat moves quick
Huh
oh man the cpu benchmark loves to roast my cooler
Which one should i get for 50 dollars Lenovo ThinkVision S24E-20 23,8 inch 60 hz 4ms
Or hp 24w for 70 dollars
Have to give it a few mins between runs
Oh wow
I was surprised lol
Depends on color accuracy and panel types
Sleep
neverrr
Stay awake
27k is really good on the gpu but it died somewhere
lether cool and againn
yesirrrr
Is there any way you can help me choosing which is which
One of them va though
If you can keep that should take my spot easy
Don’t have time
Got it thank you
yup imma dial it down a bit
Do it
Most of the hall of famers rn are on a 9800x3d
my cpu is not great atm my pbo settings are kinda fricked
I guess that changed to the 9950x
i think that’s why the data is cooked
I need help while I was playing call of duty my display port suddenly turned off and now I have a VGA light turned on
Makes sense I just go into mine set it to all core, negative, then 20 the rest I leave at default with basic ram xmp
But you'll get there haven't played with that chip yet
That's fair still good scores if you can get it to validate it'll be off to the races. But worse case always remember to clear cmos and restart as needed. And never make bios changes at 2am lol
I probs won't be pushing that score anytime soon unless I get a new cpu or smth so you got all the time to slay me 😉
forgive me for i just forego your advice and mess with bios at 2 am
As long as your remember clear cmos saves all
im actually removing my pbo
I've had my delirium days where I'd change something make it worse and spend hours until 5am like whyyy
Over the goofiest things 
When your mining and the epock/algo changes so all your rigs become unstable simultaneously
Was not a fun time lol
yikes yeah
alright take #7 or 8 or something
i lost track
Yeah man i think it’s just this grey market 3dmark lol
idk he said it has the uh
test in an hour basically 
it was a defect for early zen3 dual ccd cpus
but like
i've never observed the issues he said it has
idk i got the thing for free so like
Gl
e rip, what test
i mean its relatively easy but i didnt practice for it just electrical circuits
transformation triangle into star idk if thats what its called on english
Ah ok
What is it in your language
mesh current and node voltage too
transformacija trokuta u zvijezdu
transformacija zvijezde u trokut
Ok yup understand everything
oh convert delta to wye and wye to delta
Ok, no idea what that is but /shrug
Resistors doing sumting
Will a650bn 650W Power supply be enough for the 12600kf and Powercolor Reaper 9070 XT
is there a way to put desktop on alt tab again? i heard MS removed it but maybe theres still a way of getting it ??
WIN+D takes you directly to the Desktop. Don't think you can ALT+TAB to desktop on newer Windows anymore. At least, I can't see a way to do it anymore.
https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/tq31a6/is_there_any_way_to_alttab_back_to_desktop_like/
@south arrow normal
somethings up with this grey key 3dmark thats why its trpping on no data available
Amazon mixing up stock from various sellers came to bite their back this time https://hwbusters.com/news/amazon-sold-me-a-fake-amd-ryzen-7-9800x3d/
Hate how ms just takes good things away
Can anyone help me install my gpu
alt tab is already built in me im not using win + d ngl
Tis subjective, but yeah, if you used ALT+TAB to get to the desktop, I can understand that. Unfortunately, like all things outside our direct control, we either learn to adapt, or stop using the product.
Looks killers gg till next time lol
I shall return one day with higher scoresss!!

nha alt tab for switching is way better
makes more sense too
be honest guys. how many of you would pay $850 usd for a 9070
Yes.... Hence why I used it to tab into desktop 😭
thats too much
im talking about siwtching windows
to go into desktop just use the button on the taskbar
i wonder why anyone would want a new xbox handheld over a steamOS handheld
exclusives
No thx
ooooh i never knew about this shortcut
this is very useful
usually i have to slam my mouse to the corner
I had a weird dream last night that I had 4 sticks of ram instead of 2, and I had to reseat whichever one’s RGB turned red, I don’t have 4 sticks of ram, my ram in my pc is also not RGB
i have like 20+ computers now and i do not dream about computers
tbh i just do not dream
did you plug your HDMI into your graphics card or motherboard
XD another case of shitty nvidia drivers
should have gone amd for stable drivers
So I was PVP against some guy on gta earlier (PC) and now when I launch GTA5 my router restarts constantly, does that smell like a DDoS?
real fix, DDU if possible then install the latest drivers
WHAT TF
also no you have malware if the router RESTARTS as a DDU only overloads it not turn off or so on
can you take a pic or short vid of the restarting?
well I uninstalled GTA and I don't plan on opening it anymore, so unfortunately no
everything on the network drops and the router reboots
Like I'm chilling right now no problems
damit now i wish i knew somebody here that works with cyber security
what router do you have
Yeah man if only
you said you do fkn storage topology stuff
I have been doing sysadmin and security for over 25 years.
If the router is crashing, it's the routers fault, end of story.
well its only when playing one game
Yes, still the routers fault.
Let me try playing another online game rq
Now, my question would be how do you know it's crashing
Router lights indicate a reboot, and all the devices on the network drop
but why might it be shitting itself by just one game and not any other
Yep, sounds pretty clear
giving what game it is might help
I tried logging into GTA online with a VPN and it still happened
overheating is my first guess
but why only gta online
It's been working fine in GTA for years
.... But enhanced literally just came out.
What router is it?
and now short time after a massive update its starting
And they upgraded/changed everything
(stg if it's an TP link Archer)
True I was on enhanced
nope its ISP
oh which one?
already asked him to find out
Ezpz, contact your ISP, tell them their shit is fucked
this is why i am concerned, i wanna rule out the router as hard as possible
if this is a actual RCE or some other bullshit then this is REALLY bad
Trying to find logs rn
https://imgur.com/a/bDZ5cOV
Weird clicking sound when I alt tab from my game. When I am idle it happens every now and then (not like this, this is the most extreme case I have found). What is wrong with the PC??
XD
These are fairly popular - also overheats
you sent a GIF for a sound problem
It's this flat screen tv goofy thing
Frontier Sagemcom 5290
its a local ip bro lmao
that's a local ip it doesn't matter
i did not full screen it so it did not look like 192.168.x.x
get better eyes
😦
wait hold up why is the ip on the white thing
that's an old netgear AP that I don't use anymore
Ah okokk
two things
have you tried unplugging it manually and letting it cool down for a few minutes
and are you sure you have clean wall power there
Yes. It's been running fine for a month, and the router doesn't show any logs indicating overheating problems
Still looking through the logs
yeah idk tbh this is probably just a contact ISP moment
have you tried to update it to the latest firmware
It tells me to contact ISP for a firmware update anyways, so I'm just gonna do that tomorrow
well ok yeah looks like its a router issue, might be something like the ipv6 table filling up on yours when you use gta online that then makes the router shit itself
Ah, sagemcom
o nice it got a 9.8 out of 10
alr then just cry about it lol
that is what we like to not see
That would be strange because IPv6 is disabled on my router
welp it might also have a lot of other exploits
as you can see sagemcom aint the best
it will not run 1:1
it's only £10 more than the 6000
wdym by that? is that to do with CL rating?
you lose performance for £10 more
yikes
its running 1400MT faster then what you should get
was never crying about it? whats with the hostility lmao
If AMD, you will lose perf compared to 6000c30
If intel, you may have to do a little bit of manual tuning to make it work properly
ryzen 5 5600x or ryzen 7 5700x is there any big gap in fps boost like in valorant
how likely is it for ABS plastic laptop kickstands to bend? should i get a metal one
metal one is twice the cost
tho it's a 3 dollar vs 6 dollar difference, in my currecy its 50k vs 100k
motherfucking nvidia app
you call that hostility 😭
i just sit it on my lap and have it rest on the table
are you using a macbook?
no
what laptop?
it's largely for when i use it in bed in my belly on the bed
it's a thin and light
ive been using this for me 3 kg laptop and its been like 4 years still solid
it was like 4 usd
why do you want a stand when its on your lap
i wouldnt recommend that
not what i meant
the kickstand is so i won't suffocate the vents
"cry about it" is definitely hostile
oh alr. you can look at the one i sent maybe something similar its pretty durable
i use it like that too
no
i didnt want to benchmark it anyway
what cpu do you have
9800
It's a 9070 XT
X3D
@tidal geyser can we continue here?
Hello guys, I have that new nitro+ card coming, and was checking my 12vhwpr cable i have with bequiet dark power 13 850w. Noticed that Pin outs are mixed within a rows, is this normal?
come in like this:
1 2 3 4 5 6
7 8 9 10 11 12
And out mixed:
5 2 4 3 1 6
9 11 10 8 12 7
pic
sense pins match
eh your probs looking at it wrong
did you read the documentation?
Stuck at cli install step 3
double checked, just simple multimeter. Well, i assume since each row, is either 12v, or g. And they dont mix between rows, should be fine right?
yea
is 24gb ram fine for mbp mainly for cs in uni
I tried to use that command directly in terminal (didn't worked), in sidestore file (didn't worked) & sideloader file
Didn't know i can paste screens when i just joined discord.
well + is where its meant to be and - is where its meant to be
@tidal geyser Can you tell me you opinion about: sudo update-crypto-policies -- FEDORA40
Ooh iono not here
umm mb ig
Huh
Hello everyone, not sure if this is good place to ask but when undervolting say a 14900KF since I use an ASUS mobile I have this Global Core SVID Voltage that I usually set to Adaptive with a negative offset of -0.1 my question is how much more can you undervolt it before it starts to cause instability? Like could I do -0.2 for example
not technically #overclocking but still a better channel probably
JOIN ME #overclocking
did i not help you before?
Is there any way in which we can make the ping better
Things I've tried:
Put the router right next to the pc
Ethernet cable
you on windose?
Yes
ping defalt gateway 100 times
defalt gateway is 192.168.1.1 or somthni like that
if you have no idea what it is type IPconfig it tells you
how it looking?
I’m having issues with booting my pc after disassembling it. I’m getting no display. Tried reseating ram and checking cables but still get no signal to monitor
specs
7800x3d, 4070 ti super, 32gb,
First time I had ram in the wrong slots but still get no monitor signal after fixing that

👋 👋 👋
Hi 👋
A smart person once said:
"erdmdurdlirudurddd urdededdeurrluddeurde dderdeurrddddurdurrr"
first boot can take few minutes with error leds on. just power on and wait
Yeah I’m still waiting
It’s the light above dram
well this is too long. i'd say max 2-3min. if it doesnt boot then smth wrong
It’s been almost 10 min already 😅
It turns off then the light goes from cpu to dram then stays on for a few min then cycles
I didn’t but it worked before. I disassembled the pc to take it on a flight with me and just assembled it again now
a company my friend works at was giving these away so i snagged one, anyone got any ideas on something cool i could do with it
how do i get rid of this
was going to turn it into a retro emulator pc but i wanna see if theres better ideas before i commit
several, primarily it's very unlikely to be stable if you're using it with an am5 setup
well, it's Android 7.1, so literally anything that runs on it ? Maybe use it as Home Assistant dashboard with some kiosk app ?
that looks like one of the overlays Dell/HP likes to put in their software to show caps lock/num lock status changes
Guys, is upgrading from a 5800x to a 9800x3d worth it for 1440p and 4k gaming? I have a 6950xt
no*
Acer quick access ? https://www.reddit.com/r/computerhelp/comments/173d7x2/cant_remove_icon_when_pressing_caps_lock_tried/
should be this icon ?
Anything I can upgrade in my build than?
Cuz rn GPUs are like, way too much
what game are you having bad performance in
any1 had trouble with nvidia app global settings not saving? its fkin up my benchmark
nvidia drivers being shit again
nvidia drivers being shit again
dis is why we go with someone who can make good drivers aka AMD
i can now say “both are equally shit”
am i the only one here who can't stand carbonation
Lol
All sides have a track record of shit drivers
Do you guys like Blower gpu’s?
they good
They suck in a fun way
yes send all the heat out of case
Tryna buy a 2070s and all I’m seeing is blower
for your price range
They are loud
Precisely
THANK YOU
and that is
IM FREE.
what price range
100-200
I plan on upgrading but currently I have the Core i5-3470
rip
thats not that bad
I plan on upgrading to the i7-3770k
dont
No?
not worth
I’m a bit limited in the slot
slot?
It supports 3rd and 2nd gen
you mean lga 1155
It’s like 50 bucks on eBay
so 40% of cpu that 4x better
look on loacl market place fro am4 combo
native 1440p ultra (9800x3d 5070ti) my game runs between like 70-80 fps, with high RT, shits sitting at 60fps
I was thinking of switching to Amd
XD you are joking right
i getting 10 fps 1080P low fsr
thats criminal for ewaste
i bought a 6700k for like 20$'
game doesnt even look good
and no do not go for that it sucks
is it normal that my pc is doing disc check every startup
gta 5 looks better
fr
and i get 5x the fps
that sounds cool asf
capcom didnt optimise the game for shit
said "slap some rt and upscaler, call it a day"
I cant even notice the difference between non rt and rt
game looks equally trash
i cant even tell what i looking at due to burlry pixle mess
The Ryzen 5500 is 82, Is that a good cpu?
kind of look close to monster hunter 3ds game had in terms of look
not good cpu but thats better then 3770k
Look for deals on the 5600?
easy 10 to 20% faster thern 5500
unless you ram oc then 5500 gains on ity
You can overclock ram?
The options
?
trrds/trrdl/tfaw/trfc are easy gains
but mosty just run highest mhz you cpu can in 1:1:1 and then do some basic timings easy gains
This is not a rabbit hole they need to fall down
lol
Like yeah it's funny running DDR4-5000 1:1 but like
Ehhhh stabilising that on Cezanne is hard
Can you OC any ram or is it like gpu’s where they need to be unlocked
Any ram on any board
ram is all mobo that gives you setting on am4
and gpu just about all are unlocked to some level
any board the gives you the bios settings at elast
I want to get a 4tb m.2 ssd but I don't want to spend more than a have to. How do I know what's "good enough"? I just want it to be reliable. Anything m.2 will be fast enough.
Also lol wdym gpus need to be unlocked
All Vram on all GPUs can be overclocked
look on the tierlist
?
I thought some were locked
Linux decided it didn't want to work anymore, booting off an external SSD, this is fine :)
voltage locked on just anout all moend gpu
I want it to last until at least 2035
I'll fix it at school assuming the school wifi will let me
No, core and mem freq are unlocked on every and all graphics cards
Overclocking ram takes longer than a weekend to get a good tune and stabilise it (unless you have good ddr5 and can just copy/paste buildzoid ez timings)
Is overclocking ram even necessary anymore
wdym?
does more on intel than amd
You enable EXPO and XMP, do you not?
It just sounds like a waste of time
Idk I'm uninformed
on amd the performance gain above 6000mt/s is near zero
scails for longer on intel but amd cares more at lower speeds at least on zen2/3
It matters on both, massively
I love getting 0.1% and 1% lows increased by 15%
Don't take my opinions too seriously on that
gess why
That sounded way more authoratative than I meant it
What I really meant is I don't understand why you would overclock ram when it's already so fast
Frequency is not the whole story is the thing
Yeah sure 6000 c30-36-36-76 kit will get you 80% of the way there but the last 20% is a bunch of subtimings
unless you have to loosen timings a fair bit to get those higher clocks
Because overclocking ram also refers to making the timings not shit
thats not how timings work
Primary timings don't matter, secondary and tertiary timings matter
Also 8000c40 and 6000c30 have the same 'latency'
if you incress lets say tcl by 50% but run 50% higher mays it takes the same time
How much does overclocking ram shorten the lifespan
but then you have 50% more clocks
It doesn't
does ram even have a lifespan
i seen some run 1.65V daily since ddr5 came out on hynix
everything does
unless you’re now making the ram super hot without adequate cooling, it doesn’t
even you
There's a guy on ocn dailing 1.92vdd
I remember when I first got my ryzen 9 5900x and I "overclocked" it to 4ghz
any ram kit with jackets will be fine though
RIP
what?
Ooo you made it worse doing that (it boosts further by itself)
People explained to me that all I was actually doing was forcing it to run at a higher clock speed for no reason
Eeehhhhhhh, most heatspreaders on ddr5 are better insulators than heatsinks lol
yeah i think he forced it to run 4GHz 24/7
I fixed it shortly after
I had the foresight to double check with people to make sure I wasn't doing something stupid
dont you just love getting overkill components and not overclocking?
aesthetics go crazy
It's not about aesthetics
I wanted something that would last a while because I don't think I'm going to be able to afford nice things ever again
i mean like for an example getting an average air cooler and then getting a 420mm aio and not even using it to its full potential
yeah that works
tbh im the believer of, if buying this rather than this even if its not the most optimal component makes you happy and works for you
it is the best choice
Only a 14900k power limits removed is doing that
Also, you don't really want to use any of your cooling to it's fullest potential cuz then it gets loud
Is the PG27AQN the best 1440p IPS monitor for gaming and competitive gaming, or can I find something better? I don’t want an OLED.
why don’t you want an oled
i’m gonna guess the fake burn in problem
for £600 i’d highly recommend just getting an oled
The burn in problem isn't fake it just takes a long time
I got an LCD for the same reason
OLEDs still have a tendency to burn in, and I don’t want to deal with that since I work too much with static images. Even if it takes a long time, when I buy a new monitor in a few years, this one will be my second or third, so I don’t want to risk burn-in.
you stupid
burn in is a non issue
it takes atleast like 5 years of it staying on the same image for it to burn in
you have absolutely nothing to worry about if it isn’t on the same image/page for multiple days at a time
getting an lcd for that budget is straight up idiotic
so anyways
For four days a week, I can have Excel and similar programs open for 8+ hours a day, along no stop with a browser and various other applications. I want a monitor that I don’t have to worry about—one where leaving an image on for a long time won’t damage it, and I don’t have to be overly cautious to keep it from breaking. Later, in a few years, I plan to use it as my second or third monitor, so I expect it to last around 8 years.
finna snag a QHD 240hz instead
It takes maybe say,
A few years of full brightness on a static image
Again, I don't know if I'll ever be able to afford nice things again
I live in America
So I wanted something that would last until it was cheap to replace
If I had any hope for the future I would have gotten OLED
I remember the guy who burnt in a Switch OLED for two years straight at full brightness
The battery died before the screen burnt in
Is there a way to troubleshoot a pc when smelling something burning in it? Temps on pc are fine and no issues with stuttering or crashing either. This all started when I installed an MSI 5080 Shadow 3x GPU btw. I’m using the 12v 2x6 from my Corsair RMe 1000w btw.
On day 3 now and I still smell a plastic burning smell
Take the GPU out and smell it
I'm serious, see if that's where the smell is coming from
If it’s coming from there is there any concern or will it go away? Have read online new gpus/pc parts can give off a burn smell on load
It's absolutely a concern are you seriously asking that
It could catch fire and burn down your whole house
Huh weird
I didn't know that actually. I've never heard of that
Whilst under load, check the PSU side of the graphics card power connector

LTT video soon I assume
I did do that and did not see any glowing or even smoke, couldn’t smell any burning coming from psu or cord side either
This all started when I replaced my gpu with a new 5080 btw
It’s all running stock settings too, updated bios and drivers too
pretty normal
i smelled mine for 1 week
What are you running and what cord for your gpu?
Did it start when you swapped gpu?
Nah, it was a new rig, ion 760p+ and 3070 ti
its also pretty normal to smell plastic from psu when u get it at brand new
but as SyWillCry said check connectors
which model
and is the 12vhpwr ur using 16 or 24 pin
I’m using an MSI 5080 Shadow 3x OC, and I’m using the native 12v 2x6 from my Corsair 1000w RMe
Would it be unhinged to reset my phone
How usable is a 5700u
When I say check, I meant touch it
There is no 24 pin 12v2x6 lol
In fact there ain't a 16 pin one either
What should I be touching while it’s on the cord connecting my gpu to psu?
Since I see a Asus Zenbook 13 OLED for 200$
Btw I concede that OLED is the better option if you know you'll be able to replace it eventually
Wut
I said earlier that I'd rather have LCD
Well yeah oled is pretty expensive at 400$ for a desktop one
Usd
ROG PG279QM
I bought it because I wanted it years ago. What I should have done is getting something modern for the same price
But people said the best thing is to just learn from my mistake and keep it so that's what I'm doing
The part where it connects to the PSU
Basically I agree with the idea that OLED is the better purchase but I'm scared for the future
I know that my IPS panel will degrade at a much slower rate. My VA panel from I don't know 7 years(?) ago is still like new
So would a modern day oled do like the va is doing
Stupid question lol just not 100% sure is this cable for the 5070ti? It came with my Corsair RM850x so I don’t need to run the 3 cables to 3 pcies?
That is 12vhpwer/2x6
So just touch it and see if it is hot? Is it safe to touch while powered on?
Very
Does ZOTAC have a bad reputation?
So I need a different one?
Model > brand
really depends on what you're doing
Is that a no?
But not afaik
Alright
brand doesn't matter
(Prob fine)
the model does
Exactly
Am looking to get a 4080S, since its only 200$ extra from a 4070TiS
What’s wrong with amd
I want Ray Tracing
What games do youvplay
Also 9070 xt has good rt and fsr
I don't play alot of intensive games on my current system, but I will be once I build my PC
it's not like he's going to find 9070 xt easily anymore
Like…
The 9070XT for me is only 70$ cheaper
though the 4070 ti super is probably going to be more expensive than the 9070 xt
Hm fine
due to it not being produced anymore
For me the 4070TiS is 200$ cheaper
you just said the 9070 xt is $70 cheaper.
From the 4080S
Than 4080S
Yes and yes
so the 9070 xt is way more expensive than the 4070 ti super for you?
i mean i guess it depends on what you want, i assume you're paying a pretty hefty price for either of these gpu.
for excel use itself, why not get something that's normally used as an office monitor, aka some cheapo TN panel'd screen
Around 800$ for the 4070TiS, and 1000$ for the 9070XT
well that's not bad i guess. i paid a 100 more than that for the 4070 tis where i am a couple of months ago.
1000 usd for the 9070 xt's definitely not worth it, i dont think anyone will suggest that you go for it.
Well its kinda cheaper here since nobody buys high end GPUs, and they have old stock.
There’s no point in buying a monitor worse than the one I already have. + i play games
for the 4080 super, is a different story cause if it's 1000 then that's what it's original msrp was
Its exactly 1066.60$*
If you’ve never played at high settings I wouldn’t overspend, resolution?
I currently have a 1650 Ti (Mobile). I am looking to play at 1440p since thats what resolution monitor am getting.
i mean the 1 with 3 8pin
you would not have any problems with the 4070 ti super maxed out at 1440p, at least i havent had any issues.
Noice
see anything wrong
What games have you tried it on?
My 4080m plays max settings 1440p super well, and that's basically a 4070
Only in some games did I run into vram limitations
Doesnt the 4080 have 16GB?
Unreleased?
Basically a 4070 die
no
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Ah
what cpu is he reviewing
12gb vram is more than enough for 1440p gaming in every aspect
Last of us, space marine 2, ghost of tsushima, kcd2, god of war, elden ring, hogwarts legacy. And it's at native so i didnt use upscaling.
Just not enough to saturate every setting in like Star wars outlaws (unoptimized ubi junk)
Better than my 30Mbps on my router 🤷♂️
That's pretty much the only game I wished for more vram
Ryzen 9 9950x3d?
how have you not spotted it yet
I might buy it then, since the 4080S is 270$ more.
Idk, hungry
what cpu in the screen shot is he reviewing
I have no idea e
I’m still capped on 5G lmao. 25 Mbps speed cap. Atleast LTE is less capped or not capped anymore
9950x3d?! No CPU?
What did you think
Yes?
i read it as amd 5 9950x3d
Slightly dyslectic
So the tldr of the 9950x3d is slightly better in games compared to 9800x3d?
No
Lmao
about the same
same core, same clocks, so same performance
with the VERY FUCKIN RARE EXCEPTION of:
When a game needs more than 8 cores to properly run. Of which there are very VERY few titles.
at that point the 9950 might be faster, depending on how the game's built
there are still single core games that have thousands of players
I'ma smack you with a fuckin' bluefin tuna
Cities skylines goes hard
Just cuz it can peg 64 cores at once doesn't mean anything, right?
Sounds hot
it gets all worked up over some hot and juicy SMT

you're welcome
Kek
By hot I meant it thermal throttles, obviously
I watched only techjesus video and i saw fps differences in the single digits, hence the slightly better (by 2-8 fps game dependent)
But thanks for the explanation i appreciate it
as always:
If you're only gaming? The 9800x3d will be the go-to.
The 9950 is for people who do tasks that need more than 8 cores. Which isn't gaming.
On my home PC, yeah i only game
then a 9950 would be a waste of 300-400 bucks
Glad i took the 9800x3d then 
I have a 9800x3d for my gaming setup and a 7600x for the itx productivity, might lowk upgrade it to a r9 in the future
Ok so I ran steel nomad benchmark with pc case side open , touched the cord during performance and didn’t feel any heat before during or after
Smell still persists though
9950X3D looks very tasty ngl
Am I overreacting then if I think my 5080 is doing ok?
I thought the cord was melting or was on fire
lmk how it tastes
will do
Check the individual wires carefully and see. Both ends. (GPU and PSU)
If they're fine? they're probably fine.
Why did you "thought they were meling or was on fire"
Really anything with NVIDIA current 12VHPWR connector can have the issues, but it’s more an issue on 5090 due to the increased power draw
I see
Hi, I consider buying 9950x3d along with a new mobo. I will upgrade my setup from 12900K to it. I was wondering which mobo is a great fit to get maximum out of it. I have 4TB (2x2) Raid 0 nvme and I require 6+ USB, and I dislike Asrock (had way many issues previously). Optical output for sound and good internet port for VR usage is crucial too. WiFi is advantage but not requires. I do overclock the system if possible
Cause new gpu was smelling like burning after day 3 in pc, its an open air case fractal north btw
most B850 or x870 should have what you want.
but shame about hating asrock, they make some dope shit.
that's not open air, but okay. If something smells like burning, that's a problem.
Electronics are NOT supposed to do that.
well.......
most electronics aren't suppose to do so
the ones are supposed to burn do
this stick drift is wild
is there any program i can use to add a permament deadzone or something?
do you even know what those ones even are?
no, you can add pot's instead
2 pot's per stick and you can counter the drift some
any recommendation for wireless gaming headphones for 175$/650 nis max (Israel)
just need to be comfortable and good mic
literally as simple as this to add to each stick @gloomy sleet
#audio-tech may be better
i can probably just open it and clean it
if im opening it anyway i might as well just add a hall effect sensor instead
why the fuck are the screws t8 security screws who the fuck owns one of those
i do, all the way down to t1's
idiot you are
ok so the max clock my 5070ti aero wants to run is +535
does it have all the rops?
if it didnt i wouldnt still have 1
you might have and just went 'fuck it'
nah if it was missing rops im sending ts back immediately
and you are?
And I am
Looks like the dual CCDs are mostly handled well this time which is encouraging
But you don’t think
They have been for the past year and a half, first impressions tend to stick around though
Has this gen already been out for a year and a half?
The dual ccd bad thing comes from when the 7950x3d launched
no
Ive got a really odd issue which i seem to be the only one in the world thats experiencing, was hoping to come here to see if anyone could shed some light.
Idk if this is even the right channel for it xd
didnt they fix that later on
Yes, they very much did
Well I didn't mean bad, I'm talking about the launch, sorry for the lack of clarity
Womp womp
that thing was like $1750
Womp womp
'it happened again'
has anyone ever seen this problem before???
Making it sound like it's a mild inconvenience is crazy
This is like the third time they've attention grabbed about it
no im asking for advice
Get it out the trash
cant
What advice?
Move out? Take your mother to court?
legally cant go home
“Jarvis, I’m low on karma”
Dumb
cant take my mom to court as she already made a fake assault charge on me so i have to wait till thats over
already moved out
What's the software that displays fps called?
There’s the NVIDIA overlay, AMD overlay, the steam overlay, rivatuner, and others
400+ Mbps lol
Rivatuner! That's the one.
some painful upload speed there fella
lol what do you expect for LTE?
“Inconvenience” ur nt shkspr vro 🥀
What
Also my home internet
idk what LTE is, i aint from the US
Fiber so the high upload makes sense
I don’t expect high upload on cellular (unless your on mmWave)
??
Doing 4 things at the same time, didnt read it was on your mobile network 😆
rip
nvidia and amd have options in drivers to do it.
or FRAPS
RTSS
Just realised that my laptop is a dual core 💔
i7 7600U
Atleast it's dual threaded though
yes
8th gen is when we got good intel mobile chips
my i5 8250u is over 2x faster than your 7600u im pretty sure
What'd you get
rx 6600 and a ryzen 7 5700x, originally had 16gb of ram ddr4 3200 and a 1tb nvme
Hi guys,
Correct me if I am on the wrong chat, but I would like to know if a nzxt c 750 will be enough for an aorus 9070 xt?
I put in 32gb
I thought it'd atleast have 4 cores 💔
mobile chips are so ass
11th gen mobile cpus suck
and 8 threads
you can build a pc with so little money but people aren't creative enough
you just have to sacrifice some luxuries
budget computers have been done to death
no im talking ultrabudget computers, spending less than $150
yes i know
thats been done to death
go on youtube and type in any number followed by gaming pc
LTT just did a video on it lol
there's always an asterisk on the low prices
theres a million videeos here bro
Because uh, you have to get creative with it
i promise one of them builds an actual 100$ computer
To get to that low price
but yeah its always going to revolve around what you can buy locally and where you livee
my first entiree computer setup (i had literally nothing) wwas 200$ lol
hint, the ztt one definitely isn't
i wont lie, i havent been on youtube or tiktok for a long while i didnt know budget pcs were so prevalent
my fault
Can someone please help me
naw youre good i enjoy them a lot
it sounds like a chainsaw
i think budget computers are sick
sounds like one of your fans are unbalanced, just replace it
which fan is it could you tell from slowing it down
