1600-1900 CPS

[brave brook]

i hate that Ballistix brand died for this

[glossy veldt]

dude old ram design was gold

[wheat torrent]

I do plan to get the next best am5 CPU that would be a beast

[hallow jasper]

lol this literally looks like Cinebench

[glossy veldt]

they were so mean looking

[hallow jasper]

Zen6, join the waiting room

[wheat torrent]

to some extent lmao

[azure topaz]

EXACTLY

[wheat torrent]

I mean it is USING all your CPU

[wheat torrent]

I am not sure if like there is benchmarks that will somehow use more?

[azure topaz]

i mean there is

[wheat torrent]

but how is it using more?

[azure topaz]

minecraft is not using every instruction set that your CPU has or that even R23 uses

[wheat torrent]

oh right more instructions

[azure topaz]

yCRUNCHER will certainly make your CPU draw way more power than it will in minecraft

[wheat torrent]

yeah fair enough

[glossy veldt]

these are the coolest looking ram sticks i've seen

[hallow jasper]

what I was saying is someone could use that engine to build a canned benchmark, then everyone could run it in a pre-determined way to compare performance.

[azure topaz]

yah

[wheat torrent]

its also using my 4090 at around 20-30%

[azure topaz]

java is pretty memory bound it would favor me a lot im down

[wheat torrent]

and its eating all my ram

[hallow jasper]

careful when using TM to look at GPU usage. That graph varies depending on clockspeed

[wheat torrent]

but I think I am CPU bottlenecked

[azure topaz]

it also reports the usage amount of whatever part of the gpu is being used the most

so if you have clipping software on and its using 100% of your encoding

itll show 100% in task manager

[hallow jasper]

Yeah, better to really just use hwinfo

[hallow jasper]

but if you know the clockspeed, you can get away with the TM graph

[wheat torrent]

I do wonder if more cache would be useful in this or not

[azure topaz]

yes

[wheat torrent]

like on a x3d chip

[azure topaz]

java is memory bound by a lot

[brave brook]

i had these for a while in one system

[azure topaz]

more cache=less reliance on memory=gooder

[wheat torrent]

because on the 7000 series cpu I think the simple X outperforms the x3d in some cases clockwise

[azure topaz]

yes but thats becuase 7000 x3d have a very low clock speed

minecraft it would certianly outperform

[wheat torrent]

yeah I mean that dude is getting a shit ton of performance with 9950x3d

[glossy veldt]

ubisoft made a 40 euro game free for the next 3 weeks lmao

[wheat torrent]

when you're so high in the air you can't really understand how much chunks that is

it would take you literally hours to walk the amount of chunks he is generating in 1 minute

[warm linden]

Lmao

[wheat torrent]

it makes you wonder that some modders can do this type of stuff, why can't mojang do it

[hallow jasper]

its literally fully parallelizing the chunk generation. Would be interesting to see what it would do on a 9995WX, or if you'd run into a bottleneck elsewhere preventing all cores from being loaded.

numa nodes jump scare

[glossy veldt]

this is a great price

for argentina

[wheat torrent]

fully parallelizing chunk generation and adding GPU acceleration on top

[odd marsh]

I wonder what it could do on one of the 288c Xeons

[wheat torrent]

the developers of the mod said intel cores perform better though

they said intel always performs better in chunk generation

[glossy veldt]

that's what im wondering

[odd marsh]

oh hey I've got a 265K

[wheat torrent]

same same I would love to see someone use a threadripper on it

[glossy veldt]

i've got 256mb of ddr

[wheat torrent]

the chance of me finding a person with such CPU in that server is probably very low

[hallow jasper]

if it works like we think it works, aka like cinebench, thats going to load up as many cores as you can throw at it. so presumably, it would be a linear increase.

UNLESS, as I mentioned, having that many cores to feed exposes a bottleneck elsewhere. Be it memory performance, or similar

[crystal pond]

The new Steam controller looks nice

[odd marsh]

yeah I think 288 cores at it would surely botteneck something somewhere

[glossy veldt]

servers have a truckload of memory channels

[odd marsh]

no one is developing with those in mind

[wheat torrent]

intel used to have this program where they would give you access to a cloud computer

+250 cores and something like 2tb of ram

[hallow jasper]

just theorizing. nothing is ever going to just scale 100% efficiently in all cases

[wheat torrent]

I do not have access to it no more 🙁

[hallow jasper]

and yeah, let alone some game mod dev

[vale reef]

i dont care windows!!! tell me when there IS a threat

[azure topaz]

it does tell you

[hallow jasper]

thanks? i hope you clicked the right button

[azure topaz]

do you see the button that says see fewer notifications

perhaps

[glossy veldt]

windows defender does a lot for being free

[pseudo karma]

???

[young crest]

gaming parts for gamers gaming edition

[azure topaz]

windows defender is all i can defend microsoft for at this point

its great software

[vale reef]

protogent on top

[azure topaz]

the super why people?

yes

i rmemebr the bits about this im ok with this answer

[young crest]

You watch Joel

[jaunty apex]

Ballto

[azure topaz]

i do in fact. vinesauce joel my beloved

[glossy veldt]

it's also built upon the concept that most people who use windows don't know more than opening chrome

[azure topaz]

yes which makes it great software

[glossy veldt]

windows defender my beloved

[wheat torrent]

hold on this person is onto something

[azure topaz]

lowest common denominator

[vale reef]

i cant wait for the steam cube to release

[glossy veldt]

this feels like deja vu

[azure topaz]

what if theres a big computer we all connect to

that does the chunk generating

[wheat torrent]

in minecraft all chunks are individual

[azure topaz]

and the clients just play on it

[glossy veldt]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ea6py9q46QU

[wheat torrent]

wait

[azure topaz]

i call it " a server"

[wheat torrent]

I think it could be pretty easy to do it

[glossy veldt]

does it also rhyme with grug

[wheat torrent]

you just have multiple computer access a network attached drive

[jaunty apex]

One chunk per thread

[wheat torrent]

since chunks are all invidiual it doesnt need to be generated in a specific order

[glossy veldt]

we could also use like 500 ps3s

[vale reef]

whats the point in the cloud if it cant give you more ram, ram cloud processing when?

[glossy veldt]

because bread is tastier than key

[vale reef]

how do you know what key tastes like

[south arrow]

If you get bored, theres worse games. Kinda slow to get into though. I would be curious what Redstone contraption a spark would makes (basic circuitry) some make computers, sorters, transportation systems, calculators, programming games within the game via complex bit setups. Imaginations the limit

[young crest]

Goliath

[glossy veldt]

i ated key

[south arrow]

Or can just have fun ofc

[azure topaz]

yes

[azure topaz]

i

am so down with this plan

[glossy veldt]

it's gonna be hell on earth to recreate a certain government's supercomputer of the 2000s

[south arrow]

The military approves this message 2006 intensifies

[wheat torrent]

@azure topaz what's the gains from memory oc?

[glossy veldt]

you get faster memory

[south arrow]

Depends*

[azure topaz]

depends on the application

[wheat torrent]

Hmmm

[young crest]

As a generalisation, it makes things faster

[wheat torrent]

I can't think what would have most gains from faster memory

[azure topaz]

i told you my caveats you have to show occt stable lol

[clear canyon]

bragging rights, slightly better peformance, fun, etc

[south arrow]

Sometimes you gain nothing, sometimes you gain 1-10% just varys on how much its ram dependent also a ton of tiny factors thats to much to list

[azure topaz]

helps lows in every title

[glossy veldt]

hasn't the jump from ddr4 to ddr5 been like just noticeable

[azure topaz]

thats because theyre both slow without manual tuning <3

[wheat torrent]

I always use 32-40 gb of ram but I don't know something specific that would use faster memory standalone

[azure topaz]

the usage of ram implies that faster ram is going to be helpful

[glossy veldt]

i'm fine with my 2400 ddr4

[quasi field]

Guys is there a way to get my 128gb back?

[azure topaz]

tape it together

[clear canyon]

most likely not lol

[young crest]

Are you good at micro soldering

[glossy veldt]

baking soda diffused in water is known to make a good super glue activator

[azure topaz]

i am going to diffuse you

[hallow jasper]

damn, ltt forum has been down all day

[wheat torrent]

Does ram manufacturer mattrr

[azure topaz]

what manu

[wheat torrent]

My ram is goodram

[fervent schooner]

You guys were right im fine using lego as a gpu support bracket atm haha

[azure topaz]

the people who make the sticks? no not really

the people who make the actual chips, yes

[clear canyon]

biggie sad

[azure topaz]

your memory is made by hynix

[clear canyon]

yeah

[wheat torrent]

Goodram is such a goofy name

[azure topaz]

the actual ram chips themselves are hynix

[glossy veldt]

would you trust a ram stick made by PCBOX

[azure topaz]

which is the important part

[azure topaz]

i would trust literally any stick of ram that posts in the computer

[wheat torrent]

Hynix I think i saw in hwmonitor

[azure topaz]

its hynix i know it is

its 6000 C30, no other vendor (micron, samsung) create ram chips that do that*

[south arrow]

Hmmm

[wheat torrent]

Is GoodRAM actually a known company or is it some goofy ram manufacturer

[azure topaz]

goofy but it doesnt matter

goodram does nothing to the ram

[wheat torrent]

Yeah fair enough

[azure topaz]

they put the little chips on a little piece of almost plastic and ship it to you

[clear canyon]

They ram the ram to make it ram

[azure topaz]

they probably dont even make the PCBs

[wheat torrent]

Its just silly name

[south arrow]

Due to high server load hmm, said it pinged their web/IT guy should squash out soon. Hopefully nothing crazy

[azure topaz]

they buy literally everything from another vendor and put it together

[wheat torrent]

Buying a monitor that is called BestMonitor

[glossy veldt]

i thought we were talking about the dodge ram

isn't hyena an animal

[wheat torrent]

I asked rauko when I bought the ram if it matters of not

He said no so I got those cuz they were cheaper

[glossy veldt]

my hitachi monitor smokes your bestmonitor

[south arrow]

Lol

[glossy veldt]

if we're talking about brands

[south arrow]

Yall are goobers

[glossy veldt]

my beautiful country created this

[wheat torrent]

Why is that?

Lots of people here recommend 6000 c30 as a good standard for amd

[azure topaz]

skill issue, idk, do i make ram

[glossy veldt]

where can i fnd ddr netbook ram

i need two 512mb sticks

[south arrow]

Just manufactuer things

[wheat torrent]

Ddr6 should start mass production in 1-2 years no?

[south arrow]

Think maybe gamer Jesus or somone has some videos inside ram factorys I forget off the top whom

Probs by 2027 but depends (speculation)

[wheat torrent]

I mean am6 won't release without ddr6 would it?

And am5 reaching "eol"

[south arrow]

Rumors buttt nothing from official sources i dont think* maybe im not in the loop

[swift moss]

why is the vbus barreling straight for a transformer? i don't understand this diagram

[azure topaz]

nah

[south arrow]

There been any leaks floppas?

[wheat torrent]

I don't think so but

It would make no sense?

[south arrow]

Should* just curious the clocks on it etc etc and how to play with it in practice. But only timee will tell

[wheat torrent]

Since amd doesn't release new sockets as often like Intel

So it would only make sense to wait for ddr6 before releasing am6

[azure topaz]

im not one to care about them besides like basic raw things

like "NVL is 52c and has AVX 10.2"

[wheat torrent]

There was some zen6 leaks and it looked pretty nice

[alpine furnace]

hey ik this is a noobie question but where it says 2.5g does that mean only 2.5g of wifi can go through it?

[wheat torrent]

No, maximum 2.5 Gigabit 2500mbps

Also not wifi

[south arrow]

Up to 2500mbps network speeds hardlined (but limited to your provider plan and router ouputs)

[alpine furnace]

is that why ive been experiencing very bad connection for the past 4 months ive had like 2 techs come and fix up the wires outside still unplayable

[wheat torrent]

Nope

[fervent schooner]

Thats lucky my wall ethernet only gives me 100mb (Plug socket ethernet to be clear)

[south arrow]

Still will only get that 100mb at the pc as well thats just its max

[wheat torrent]

The amount of people who even have 2.5Gbps is very low

There are other factors

[south arrow]

Mines only like 1gbps I think usually about 800-900 in practice

[fervent schooner]

Ive had more then 100mb with my wifi dongle its just ive changed room

[wheat torrent]

Even if it was 100Mbps it shouldn't feel bad

[glossy veldt]

what is rhis...

[south arrow]

40gb hdd but idk that pin format

[wheat torrent]

40gb e-waste

[fervent schooner]

Mind you ive just googled it and apparently its ment for high wifi speeds but users have reported a 100mb limit

its a b450 elite

[glossy veldt]

what is an at drive bro

[alpine furnace]

im sending a pic but even this its only 39.38 Mb and its taking over 2 minutes sum idk what i pay for when it comes to connection

[azure topaz]

2.5 gbit often 2, but late at night i get 2.5 B) im goin to 3 tho next month

[wheat torrent]

Pretty sure all b450 are 1 gigabit

[glossy veldt]

hush

[south arrow]

Get itt flopps

[fervent schooner]

Ye i thought so too but apparently theres a issue with the board

theres loads of 100mb reported issues

[azure topaz]

AT as in apart of SATA

[wheat torrent]

It should be plug and play

[sharp salmon]

Should I start looking at PC parts on black Friday or wait till cyber Monday?

[azure topaz]

its a dfiferent connector same communication

[fervent schooner]

Might have to have a look at that now actually

[odd marsh]

they're gonna be the same price

[sharp salmon]

Ok

[glossy veldt]

great info however what do i even plug into this

[azure topaz]

like how ide is also just AT but a different type

[sharp salmon]

So it doesn't really matter

[glossy veldt]

is there an adaptor for it

[odd marsh]

yes

[azure topaz]

its a 40GB hdd what could you possibly want to use it for

[south arrow]

I must just be looking at the drive wrong or smth

[glossy veldt]

my compaq presario m2000

[wheat torrent]

I remember when I switched to Linux on my laptop and had

No touchpad drivers
No wifi drivers
No Ethernet

[azure topaz]

its some form of IDE i think

[alpine furnace]

sum tech 100% must of fucked up the wires outside my house cause i never had this issue ever

[south arrow]

Just what to plug that into its ide forsure at 40gb but like just a weird one. My eyes are making the pins look flat vs pointed

[azure topaz]

yah its just IDE

[elfin monolith]

Hey, can I get some input on some parts/build. Ive two cards i'm trying to figure out which would be better in my pc

[azure topaz]

im curious on if this is an adaptor plugged into it

[elfin monolith]

3090, or 4070?

[azure topaz]

or if my eyes are decieveing me

[south arrow]

Thats my issue I got ide drives for refrence beside me and sata and sas etc

[azure topaz]

cause its supposed to be an IDE hdd base d off the part number but thats not a mini ide connection

[topaz shale]

depends if you need the vram or not for ai or vr. otherwise 4070

[glossy veldt]

holy shit you're right

it is an adaptor

[azure topaz]

yep

its ide now isnt it

[south arrow]

Oh ok yiss yiss, it all makes sense now xD

[glossy veldt]

it's always been ide

[azure topaz]

that connector poked out too far for it to be apart of the drive fr

[glossy veldt]

but the weird pins were confusing me

[azure topaz]

yah

we so good ez pz its found

cause i know that part numbe risnt wrong so i was like "its literally showing me the same machine he wants to put it in"

[glossy veldt]

I'm a proud owner of this whatadinga now

[wheat torrent]

@azure topaz

[south arrow]

Curious lil piece

[azure topaz]

see lol

[wheat torrent]

Can you get a 7900x to use 80 watts

[topaz shale]

my 3080ti isnt getting me 280fps anymore i think i need a 5090

[azure topaz]

you can tell it to use any amount of power you want i gave you the tools

[wheat torrent]

At same performance as 7900

[azure topaz]

you have da tools to find that out

[glossy veldt]

i wonder if they made it a set of pins for easier removal

[wheat torrent]

I don't have a 7900x

[azure topaz]

PBO curve optimiser at a negative offset makes the cpu begin to draw less power

[azure topaz]

they are the same chip

[wheat torrent]

I'm just wondering if its literally the same CPU

[south arrow]

Probs a specialized part for a specific motherboard yiss or combo of parts

[azure topaz]

yes it is literally the same chip

[wheat torrent]

[azure topaz]

@glossy veldt

[wheat torrent]

Same CPU different settings

[azure topaz]

hottie i found it, its an EZ IDE format

makes for easier removal

lets you lift the drive straight up instead of away then out

[glossy veldt]

it's very ez to remove indeed

[azure topaz]

mystery solved lol

[south arrow]

Kinda a neat concept if no downsides (interference etc etc)

[azure topaz]

doenst seem like it

pins is pins i cant imagine one extra connection is fucking a hdd up

[south arrow]

Ide to sata molex adapter intensifies

[glossy veldt]

not a 5400 rpm 40 gb for sure

[azure topaz]

lmao

[wheat torrent]

How are some motherboards better than other than overclocking

Is it just different BIOS and that's it

[glossy veldt]

i could probably revive my ancient 50 gb desktop ide drive with all my family photos

[azure topaz]

memory topology is the best answer youre going to get from me

[wheat torrent]

Or is there some hardware difference

[glossy veldt]

if i had an ide cable that is

[empty quartz]

Mrrp :3

[steep socket]

Get an IDE to SATA converter

[azure topaz]

of course

[steep socket]

Then run the SATA controller in IDE mode

[wheat torrent]

But I assume for power oc it doesn't matter

[azure topaz]

these boards are literally identical besides the memory layout

[small cedar]

how much do you think I could get for a second hand pc that has an i5-8400, GTX 1060 6GB and 16GB of DDR4 2400

[azure topaz]

for the most part no

[steep socket]

At least 100 dollars

[glossy veldt]

will be doing so

[azure topaz]

you can definintely run into issues with other boards doing CPU oc

but on modern boards, especially AM5, this is basically entirely phased out

all boards you can buy besides the cheapest of the cheap will be able to max out any chip on am5

[wheat torrent]

Fair

I don't think I will oc anything else other than my CPU

[south arrow]

Them quality caps

[wheat torrent]

I don't want to oc my 4090

[small cedar]

I wanna build a pc with a mini ATX board, budget but still decent performance, any recommendations on specs

[steep socket]

Why not use the NVIDIA overclocking app thing

[azure topaz]

whats budget

just say how much you want to spend and then your preferences

[hallow jasper]

#1106613567966429224

[robust swift]

Hmmmm

[azure topaz]

rather than asking for part choices

[hallow jasper]

Likely because its a waste of time

[azure topaz]

it is

[steep socket]

Holy banger deal

[robust swift]

Is it? I'll swipe it rn

[wheat torrent]

My 4090 works just fine im very happy with it

[steep socket]

Wait wait

[wheat torrent]

There is no reason for me to push it

[robust swift]

Imma need peer reviews

[steep socket]

Ask other people first just to be sure

[azure topaz]

200$ is fine

[steep socket]

I’d personally instantly take that cpu though but it’s probably cuz I’m poor af

[azure topaz]

300$ new or like, 289 rn

so pretty good as long as the chip works

[steep socket]

100 dollars saved is insane

[robust swift]

Gbp,.that'd be like $230

[wheat torrent]

I paid 300 euro for my r9 7900

[steep socket]

I paid 80 cents for my cpu lmao

[glossy veldt]

i paid $25 for a 2004 laptop

[robust swift]

160 reviews, 98% positive

[azure topaz]

i paid too much money

[wheat torrent]

All my other CPUs were below 100 usd

[steep socket]

That’s not a bad deal, what specs

P4 + soundblaster laptop can go for a lot more than 25 dollars

[glossy veldt]

celeron m350 256mb ram

[robust swift]

Should I swipe it, 98% positive reviews from 148 reviews, like 80 bucks under normal pricing

[wheat torrent]

My ram used to cost 300 while my CPU like 90 bucks

[steep socket]

Yeah it’s not even worth 25 dollars 😂

[azure topaz]

yeah

[wheat torrent]

Pretty unbalanced

[azure topaz]

do you want a better CPU?

[steep socket]

Jk, it’s probably good for Linux or something

[glossy veldt]

meant 15 sorry

[azure topaz]

if you hvea 7700X its a useless purchase

[glossy veldt]

ars to usd conversion

[robust swift]

I'm going for a full build

[steep socket]

Yeah that’s a good deal

[wheat torrent]

When Zen 6 releases I'm definetly spending 1k

[azure topaz]

shit then send it homes

[robust swift]

My old PC has a ryzen 5 5600 iirc

[glossy veldt]

the thing is it's literally pristine

[steep socket]

Show

[glossy veldt]

dust free no scratches

[robust swift]

What about mobo options

[glossy veldt]

let me record a quick video

[steep socket]

I upgraded from a core 2 duo a while back

This laptop just has such a better keyboard and feels really good

This dosent look that bad does it

[hallow jasper]

oof

[steep socket]

It’s just a theme it’s not actually win7

[hallow jasper]

looks like 2015

[azure topaz]

bro

[steep socket]

Yeah I suppose

[azure topaz]

pc part picker

[robust swift]

That sounds like I'm just gonna get a b850 and be done with it

[azure topaz]

filter by cheapest

[cold skiff]

What was wrong with 2015?

[azure topaz]

damn right bro get the cheapest b850 that supports whatever you want

[hallow jasper]

it looks ancient

[azure topaz]

you know hwat your computer needs to do, i do not

PCPP is a great resource to build a parts list

[cold skiff]

Yes but what was wrong with 2015

[robust swift]

The thing is I want about 2 pcie slots

[cold skiff]

Was a good year tbh

[hallow jasper]

I don't want my computers to look like that anymore

[azure topaz]

boards like that exist, you do not have enough lanes to run them both at X16 no matter what choice you make

[steep socket]

Why not

[robust swift]

Anyways I'm going to go swap out my cmos battery brb

[hallow jasper]

luckily PCPP makes this easy

[steep socket]

EBay is fine as long as it’s not overseas

[azure topaz]

buy whatever you want, ebay is of the safer choices

[cold skiff]

Widgets were crap tbfh

[steep socket]

I like them

[azure topaz]

EBAY has excellent buyer protection if anything goes wrong itll at worst be a waste of time

[steep socket]

I can see how much my CPU is using at any time

[hallow jasper]

It makes me feel like i'm using an old computer? surely this is obvious

[steep socket]

Without using task manager every time

[azure topaz]

what will you do with this info

what will you do with this info

[hallow jasper]

twice, wow

[steep socket]

It looks cool and I can see how much RAM I have left

[cold skiff]

I can do that with amd adrenaline bar

[azure topaz]

i literally cant say it again otherwise ill get muted

[cold skiff]

And show more info

[steep socket]

Yeah but I’m on Intel

[azure topaz]

what do you do knowing how much ram you have used at one time

this surely changes your computing experience for the better

[hallow jasper]

its on your main, low res screen. presumably you'd have windows on top of it. doesn't do you a lot of good

[steep socket]

So I don’t accidentally run out and hit the pagefile

[azure topaz]

what are you going to do when you have no choice but to run out

let it sit there at max like everyone else would?

[steep socket]

Low res?

[azure topaz]

perhaps even close the widgets so theyre not taking memory themselves

[steep socket]

It’s not that bad lmao

[south arrow]

Reminder that licking your electronics is not recommended while some may be colorful

[hallow jasper]

thats at most 1080p, so yes

[azure topaz]

knowing how "utilized" your computer is, is a pretty useless metric especially when youre not playing a game or something that you want to ensure youre at peak performance in

[steep socket]

I used to lick the DS charger while it was on

[steep socket]

How is 1080p a low resolution

[south arrow]

See this is why its important lol

[azure topaz]

"oh no my cpu is 30% utilized in discord"
what do you even do at that point

[hallow jasper]

i'm stuck using 1080p screens here at work, right this moment even. its hell

[glossy veldt]

nevermind here go photos

[cold skiff]

1080p is low these days

[plush wren]

close discord

[cold skiff]

It’s not 2001

[plush wren]

[azure topaz]

then no more discord

[hallow jasper]

1080p was high in 2014

[azure topaz]

oh no my cpu is at 70% i should close the game i have open

[steep socket]

I mean it’s not that bad, I had 720p before

[plush wren]

[hallow jasper]

today its a baby res

[azure topaz]

the hardware is there to be maxxed out

[plush wren]

yup gotta have the cpu at 0

[cold skiff]

I still prefer 1080p. It’s all I need. I see why people prefer higher too

[steep socket]

I have 2GB RAM

[plush wren]

[azure topaz]

you should literally have no care about your computers util unless it is slow

[steep socket]

i have to watch what I open…

[azure topaz]

maybe close them widgets then

[south arrow]

Still solid for 90% of formats

[cold skiff]

You have to watch turning that thing on

[azure topaz]

😭

[steep socket]

They use 30MB memory at maximum…

[azure topaz]

thats a whole 30mb more

to you it clearly matters because you look at cpu usage on your desktop

😭 you seein me?

knowing how much you use does not change the way you use the computer really so whats the point

[cold skiff]

He would probably install the widget in bios too

[azure topaz]

oh i want to open chrome but i have 300 mb ram left oh no... (opens chrome anyways)

[steep socket]

Is this ragebait

[hallow jasper]

right now on these baby 1080p monitors I can basically only have one application fullscreen at a time. Making it smaller to fit something else is far too much of a compromise. 4K I could have windows opened this same size 4x with barely any overlap. So much more room to breath, spread things out, not constantly be Alt-tabbing and losing track of whats open.

[azure topaz]

me fr

[cold skiff]

I’m asking myself this about everything you’re saying

[azure topaz]

i have 1920x1200 monitors and im in the same boat

[wheat torrent]

I saw someone overclock a 1080p 60 hz monitor

[steep socket]

I mean i just scale my stuff down so its not as big

[azure topaz]

yah

[wheat torrent]

+20hz

[azure topaz]

download CRU by toasty x, set it to exact reduced mode, set refresh rate to 74 hz, hit restart64.exe

[cold skiff]

I use 3x 1080p monitors at work and I need 2 more 😭

I wish they’d give me 4k 😭

[hallow jasper]

its just not realistic. when you experience high res you'll understand, its game changing

[azure topaz]

set refresh rate to new value in windows settings

profit

[wheat torrent]

Brightness oc would be cool imo

[azure topaz]

25% monitor oc right there

[glossy veldt]

brother

[cold skiff]

For work I need 4k. For home all I need is 1080p

[steep socket]

Sadly i can't afford 1440p atm and my chipset just cant handle it

[cold skiff]

Everything has its uses

hes got 2 gb ram

i actually do believe this

[steep socket]

2GB isnt that bad to use

I mean yeah it gets slow but its not to the point where its unusable

I had 1GB at one point when one stick malfunctioned and yeah that was BAD

[azure topaz]

i use 5 times that doing almost nothing on my work desktop

[steep socket]

I use 300mb on idle

[empty quartz]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[steep socket]

[wheat torrent]

I think pushing 650

[wheat torrent]

[steep socket]

Thats almost 48 times what im idling at

[wheat torrent]

The more ram you have the more it will use

[steep socket]

Whats your total RAM

[wheat torrent]

[hallow jasper]

guys, there is NO official word on pricing. If someone is spitting numbers out, they're making them up or repeating them from someone else who made them up.

[steep socket]

Thats still not normal

[wheat torrent]

It is

[steep socket]

HOW

[wheat torrent]

My friend said 350 USD

I wanted to bet with him but he refused

[glossy veldt]

my cat said 800 usd tho

[wheat torrent]

My prediction 650$ 512gb and 750$ for 2tb

[hallow jasper]

it is.

[empty quartz]

[steep socket]

Windows is fucked man

[hallow jasper]

how so?

[wheat torrent]

I think ltt did a video on windows idling with 2TB ram

[steep socket]

16GB RAM on idle

[wheat torrent]

Not idling at 2tb

[steep socket]

That’s insanity

What’s even being used that needs that much RAM

[hallow jasper]

Would it make more sense to you for the OS to pre-load nothing at all and then take more time to load it when you need it? Or intelligently pre-load and manage it on its own?

[empty quartz]

Laughs in 12gb of ram used at idle

[steep socket]

Why would you even need anything preloaded

What’s the benefit of that

[odd marsh]

guys the steam cube will be 6-7 hundred dollars

[wheat torrent]

I don't mind it using a lot of ram

But I hope when I need all the ram it will give it to me

[hallow jasper]

This is a fundamental misunderstanding with RAMs purpose and how modern OSes manage it.

The smallest possible "in use" memory at idle is not a flex.

[steep socket]

Who said it was

[hallow jasper]

No one. I'm saying its not.

[steep socket]

Oh

[glossy veldt]

at least it isnt..... 256mb ddr........

[wheat torrent]

I remember running this Linux distro with 100 mb of vram in use

[steep socket]

That wouldn’t even boot windows 7

[steep socket]

I only use like 32mb VRAM on idle

Lemme check actually

[glossy veldt]

wanna bet

sadly my m2000 cant boot from usb

it runs windows 11 on 4gb

[royal stone]

28th november i think

[steep socket]

I think my current CPU is slower

[glossy veldt]

maybe

[wheat torrent]

My server has i5 9400f

[empty quartz]

I do bet

[glossy veldt]

what is that

[wheat torrent]

That sata to USB is crazy

Where did you buy that

[steep socket]

This celeron was released 5 years after my current one

And is still slower (I’m fucked)

[wheat torrent]

How much was it

[empty quartz]

Nice joke

Userbenchmark

[steep socket]

I’m not joking

[empty quartz]

Userbenchmark is about as accurate as a newborn with a shotgun

[steep socket]

Uhh I’ll use CPU-Z hold on

[empty quartz]

Literally anything else

[hallow jasper]

Userbenchmark is a bit of an industry sick joke

the guy running it is a clown and its heavily intel biased

[glossy veldt]

2014 soc vs 2013 desktop cpu well we know which one's slower

Put it together and run r23

[steep socket]

Welp I tried running it

It crashes and says it’s not a valid win32 application

[empty quartz]

Thats why i said slowest 64 bit

[steep socket]

It can run on x64 but it would be horrendous

It barely has support for it

[empty quartz]

It it cant run windows 10 64 bit, it is not a true 64 bit cpu

[steep socket]

It can

I’ve done it before but it runs so slow that it genuinely isn’t even worth it

[glossy veldt]

it doesn't actually once you optimize it

[steep socket]

I’m talking pinned to 100% usage on the desktop and 1.3/2gb ram used on idle

[glossy veldt]

updates is what kills most of your performance

and antivirus

[empty quartz]

Only other person i know of that has a slower 64 bit cpu than me is @vestal shore

[steep socket]

It was a new install of IOT LTSC

[glossy veldt]

i got w10 stripped to like 50-90 processes iirc

[steep socket]

I reckon it genuinely is slower but i cannot be bothered to install x64 win10 on this

[empty quartz]

The famed slowest 64 bit cpu

[vestal shore]

Bobcat apu. Bulldozer.

[empty quartz]

I wanna get an amd c30

[vestal shore]

No, I'm the connoisseur of garbage.

[empty quartz]

Do you want my piece of garbage?

[glossy veldt]

i think my celeron m350 is faster than that

[empty quartz]

As far as current benchmarks show, the c-50 is the slowest 64 bit cpu

[steep socket]

https://www.cpu-world.com/Compare/570/AMD_C-Series_C-50_vs_Intel_Mobile_Celeron_Dual-Core_T3000.html

[glossy veldt]

you don't understand

its a 32 bit cpu

[vestal shore]

Which one is x64

[steep socket]

Your CPU somehow has virtualisation for virtual machines but mine does not

[steep socket]

Both of them

[vestal shore]

Because it's newer

2011. Yes.

This piece of garbage is from 2011.

[steep socket]

Mines from 2009

[empty quartz]

Nope

[vestal shore]

C30 is faster apparently.

[steep socket]

😂

[empty quartz]

How the fuck

[vestal shore]

1.2 versus 1.0

[steep socket]

The C50 genuinely beats the T3000 in about everything

[empty quartz]

@vestal shore this vi23a kid thinks the c-50 is a 32bit

[vestal shore]

Run r23

[vestal shore]

Bro I literally have r23 running on it

[glossy veldt]

mine is

[vestal shore]

X64 or arm64 only

Dummkopf.

[glossy veldt]

i just said my celeron m350 ks 32 bit

[vestal shore]

Well yes. It's early core solo architecture

[steep socket]

It won’t run

[empty quartz]

Then its not 64 bit

Or you’re running 32 bit windows

[steep socket]

I’m on 32 bit windows

[empty quartz]

Why the fuck

[steep socket]

I only have 2GB ram remember so I’m forced to atp

[vestal shore]

LTSC.

[glossy veldt]

for a mobile chip the celeron m350 runs cs 1.6 really well

[vestal shore]

Oh wait

[steep socket]

1.3gb ram on idle and one core

[vestal shore]

Ahahahhhaa I remember now.

[glossy veldt]

im also planning on installing diablo I but i cant get the iso to uniso

[vestal shore]

It lacks the proper instructions.

[steep socket]

It can run up to windows 11 23h2

I choose not to because of how shit it would be

[empty quartz]

Then upgrade the ram

[vestal shore]

The earliest x64 CPUs lack a few crucial instructions that w10 x64 needs in order to run.

[plush wren]

which instructions

[steep socket]

DDR2 is limited to 2GB per slot and I have one slot

[vestal shore]

PrefetchW is the main one.

[steep socket]

I ran it somehow

[vestal shore]

Then that chip isn't that early.

[steep socket]

I also ran it on a core 2 duo T7500 before

[vestal shore]

[vestal shore]

Those are in the middle of my list

I have some real lemons I've tested let me tell ya

C-50 is just the worst

[steep socket]

It supports virtualisation

It’s literally already better than the t3000

Ignore the fact the c-50 has an onboard igpu as well

That Realtek thing at the bottom is practically the exact same thing you have but 20 years older

Okay so i have a ryzen 5 9600x would it be able to handle a gpu upgrade to a 50 series gpu?

[azure topaz]

yes

you have the newest generation of cpu out

[young crest]

Not a bad system I think

[azure topaz]

if that cant what can bro. tell us.

[fervent schooner]

I need to redo all this

Need to buy a new case new fans

[azure topaz]

a 9600x and 9700x game roughly the same despite the core count difference

[fervent schooner]

And rewire the entire thing

[young crest]

Redo your cable management and it’ll be fine

That’s the war crime that’s been committed

[fervent schooner]

Ik i didnt build it as i didnt know how to do it at the time

It was like 5 years ago

But this is the first part ive upgrade the gpu

Prpbably gonna upgrade cpu and psu

There nothing thats gonna make my pc explode or sm shit js there

And is the lego brick ok

[rose sorrel]

https://www.facebook.com/share/1Bp19x2Qq1/?mibextid=wwXIfr

looking at buying this can anyone find more about for they said new psu worth $50 or should I to get it for $30 ?

[stoic nova]

Im willing to bet that's gonna have a proprietary PSU

Or some really bizarre form factor

[opal dock]

Wow the Cooling on the ASRock Challenger 9070XT is pretty damn good. Stays below 50°C under full load

[rose sorrel]

I can’t tell

[rose sorrel]

But worth $50 even for parts ?

[azure topaz]

i cant see inside perfectly

but thats not proprietary

i found it yes it is

its actually a reskinned prebuilt im so fr

by prebuilt i mean hp office machine

it looked like a normal case from first glance but yeah no theres nothing worth anything in there

fuckin hp elite desk lmaooo

are we seeing it

[tired bear]

your ram is in wrong slots

[fallow yacht]

why is asia so high

[fervent schooner]

my motherboard only has 2 slots

Oh shit

But it has 4?

[fervent schooner]

How have i only just realised that

[broken shard]

Unc…

[tired bear]

i see 4
it should be
empty, ram, empty, ram

[fervent schooner]

dam

Well ive never had any issues so

[opal dock]

Does AMD Adrenalin shutdown FurMark because it thinks it's a power virus or something? After a few minutes everytime I try stress testing my 9070xt's tuning with it, it just closes the animation window. No visual artifacting or glitches, so I don't think it's my GPU being unstable. It doesn't even get above 45°C.

[tired bear]

you have essentialy ran it in single channel mode

[fervent schooner]

It still says i have 16gb tho

[tired bear]

potentialy lost quite a bit of performance %

[tired bear]

bandwith is halfed

[fervent schooner]

Ive almost had this for 6 years

Ive never really had any performance issues tho

[tired bear]

not issues, but peformance might improve

[stoic nova]

If your guys GPUs arnt getting at least up to 80c there's a problem

[rose sorrel]

Worth $50 ?

[fervent schooner]

i get 83

[azure topaz]

no man

[fervent schooner]

thats my gpu limit

[azure topaz]

went over this

[opal dock]

Or it's just good cooling. Mines undervolted and vram overclocked and doesn't even reach 60°C at full load

[azure topaz]

83 is a problem

[rose sorrel]

I offered $30

[fervent schooner]

Why

[stoic nova]

Then your load isn't really full load.

[azure topaz]

GPU boost disabled from then onwards

[fervent schooner]

I thought 83 was normal

[opal dock]

It says 100% GPU usage in FurMark

[azure topaz]

its not worth 30$

its literally not worth your time going to get it even if it was free

[stoic nova]

Is this hotspot?

[tired bear]

not if perfcap reason is pwr

[azure topaz]

there is approximately 0 useful hardware in the entire machine

[azure topaz]

hotspot being your method of measuring gpu temps is odd

[opal dock]

No overalltemp. Hotspot gets to like 65-70°C max

[fervent schooner]

Its on 83 when im playing intense games tho

not just not doing anything

[azure topaz]

i know

[rose sorrel]

This worth $120

Offers guy $50

[stoic nova]

Amd GPU

[azure topaz]

what about it

[stoic nova]

It's not your fault Nvidia obscures this

[azure topaz]

the brand doesnt matter

[tired bear]

bro you do not have any case fans

[azure topaz]

why are you measuring edge temp or sometimes completely not even the GPU core

not a great metric

[fervent schooner]

I know 🙏

[azure topaz]

sometimes hotspot simply doesnt work lol

[fervent schooner]

ima buy some new ones

[azure topaz]

even up to pascal hotspot wasnt a real measurment

it just lied to you

[rose sorrel]

It does not have a Nvida card it’s a XFX card so it’s amd

[azure topaz]

polaris cards guess the cards power draw entirely

[tired bear]

just one exaust one would do wonders

[azure topaz]

they only know how much the core is drawing

[fervent schooner]

I was gonna get 2 exhaust 2 intake

[azure topaz]

on polaris, the hotspot can be the vram, even

and on a bunch of other cards

its just not a great measurment to use tbh

[fervent schooner]

or js buy a new case in general

[stoic nova]

Hotspot is maximum temp of the sensors in the GPU die. The hotspot will always be higher than any other sensor in a workload

[fervent schooner]

and fans

[azure topaz]

hotspot sounds like it would be only the die but in practice this is often not true

[stoic nova]

It's not a single sensor

[azure topaz]

your hotspot can be 105c and not really be considered bad

[stoic nova]

Ofc

[azure topaz]

this is my point

its not a single sensor its the hottest sensor the card sees most of the time

this can be literally anything from the VRM to the VRAM

it sounds like it would be only the die but through many card generations this is not true

[stoic nova]

Nah, its only gpu die. But regardless

[azure topaz]

or for below pascal its literally just lying to you

[azure topaz]

explain to me

my 110c hot spot temp RX 570

[stoic nova]

Perfectly normal

[azure topaz]

why did my hot spot temp decrease when i put cooling on the memory

[hallow jasper]

the forum is back. i can relax

[stoic nova]

More cooling in general?

[azure topaz]

how

mf heatsinks on the memory are not connected to the core

[stoic nova]

Doesn't have to be

[azure topaz]

not in this case

[tired bear]

dip whole gpu in ln2

[azure topaz]

bro you are rage baiting me this is straight stupid

[stoic nova]

Heat expansion?

[verbal prawn]

how much you wanna bet it was dns

i am returning to blocking this individual

that was the dumbest response ive read

you literally can google the things im saying and find that they are in fact true

[stoic nova]

Man we've had plenty of fun convos

[verbal prawn]

lol the gap between the 2 last topics

[stoic nova]

This is what it took to break the camels back?

C'mon man you're better than that

[hallow jasper]

I dunno whats been going on but you've gotta really try to get floppa to block you

[hardy horizon]

lets GOOOO

[stoic nova]

After the like. Literal years we've interacted I've never seen this

[opal dock]

Gonna run OCCT for an hour on adaptive gonna see if my settings are stable

[azure topaz]

my last response:

[hardy horizon]

think BO7 can play on iGPU? borderlands 4 can 😁

[azure topaz]

heat expansion is causing my RX 570 to hit 110c hotspot without memory heatsinks

[stoic nova]

Idk man it seems like a pretty reliable way to gauge temps

[azure topaz]

but putting memory heatsinks on dropping the hotspot much lower

clearly isnt because the hottest sensor isnt on the vram or near it

[stoic nova]

What else wouldnt you wanna cool that your hottest reporting sensor

[azure topaz]

its because my fucking pcb expanded it was so hot and make the hotspot 40c worse

[stoic nova]

Idk man anecdotes are bizarre

[hardy horizon]

oh it TOTALLY can, BL4 requests RTX 2070, BO4 requests GTX970 🤘 .... the question is WILL it 🤔

[fervent schooner]

Might just add another 2 ram sticks do they need to be the same brand and model

[tired bear]

nah

[opal dock]

The GPU memory junction is what seems to get the hottest on my card

[azure topaz]

i wonder what the memory junction is

[fervent schooner]

Just ddr4 then?

And its ok

[azure topaz]

the components that perhaps need cooling

and not my vrm at 90c

[stoic nova]

This checks out

[tired bear]

2DPC (4 sticks, 2 channels) operation limits ram frequency as it puts more strain on memory controller
it is reccomended to use 1DPC (2 sticks, 2 channels)

[azure topaz]

you dont say

kool

[hardy horizon]

question, when you buy black ops on steam, or battle.net. do you have Xbox anywhere access?
i know u can log into your Xbox account and have your data. but i have only tried that on someone's Xbox who already owned the game... what if they don't own the game? i tried google and it seems mixed, checked steam and battle.net, no mention (BO6 i purchased on Battle.net)

[azure topaz]

how are you typing this much

i think yes, if you link your battlenet acc to your ms acc then get an xbox, it should be fine and have ur data

[stoic nova]

new keyboard be like:

[hardy horizon]

i couldnt find my BO6 (it was battle net) and bought on the xbox app LOL

so now i have COD on Battlenet, steam, AND xbox 🤣

this one better not suck.... bo6 started strong then ... well they kinda messed up zombies

mw3 i thought i was gonna HATE teh zombies mode, i actually liked teh community aspect, espically after that 72 glitch which did 100X to legendary drop chance, and people were just giving away blueprints 🤘

oh i ONLY play teh zombie mode, last campaign i played ended with someone throwing a knife in an eye

I don't think enough people realize that Valve literally just took the most common Steam Hardware survey results and made a console out of it. That's literally all the Steam Machine is

X · Nov 13, 2025, 5:46 PM

I didn't think of this at first

[hardy horizon]

if its good enough for teh players, its good enough for valve. hell teh steam deck is still teh best handheld price to performance.

isnt this steam mechine version 2?

Yes. There’s 6 GHz DOCSIS being explored lol

I have no idea how that will turn out

[steel umbra]

Chatgpt no longer allows me to ask questions about how much of what can kill you, it shows you help line instead, even after explicitly telling the clanker it's just curiosity

even when i ask what is the deadly amount when i theoretically ingested something and i'm worried

[distant frigate]

The coax cable almost starts acting like an antenna at 6 GHz and especially at like 9 GHz lmao

The attenuation just becomes very bad

[hardy horizon]

lawsuits do that sadly.

[woeful narwhal]

yeah you cant say the word die or kill unfortunately

[distant frigate]

I do think DOCSIS 5.0 is genuinely gonna be the last standard for coaxial cable

After that physics are gonna say nope

[woeful narwhal]

i remember reading someone saying they took a dosage of something that i thought was going to kill someone to which i asked "would that much kill someone" and it kept censoring it

and i couldnt get anything from google beforehand

[steel umbra]

I accidentally took a little bit more of baking soda than i should've for heartburn so i came up with that... The AI was tripping how i'm going to die and that i should call help immediately

Then i created a new chat and the AI was making fun of it
