[toxic hound]

if i send u my pcpartpicker can u guys rate it

[shell void]

5070 is realistically 240W and max 300W, 9700X is realistically 140W and max 175W, either way you're totally fine with a 750W

[edgy laurel]

what is it with the tiktok generation and needing everything "rated"

[brisk jolt]

they dont know what they are doing and they dont have the balls to research

[toxic hound]

ive been out of the hobby for a few years and i just wanted to have some feedback from people who have been active in the hobby...

[edgy laurel]

useful comments, sure. but what is the purpose of /10 rating

[brisk jolt]

i cant believe im in the same generation as them

[toxic hound]

thats what i meant

[edgy laurel]

you're going to get all sorts of comments here, thats for sure

[toxic hound]

im just not sure about the memory tbh

is 6000 like the old 3200mhz?

as in standards

[brisk jolt]

ican see the entire list is wrong as it does not have a 9800x3d/9950x3d, RTX 5090, 2000w PSU and CL26 ram

[brisk jolt]

yes

[toxic hound]

should i even consider going higher or is there no point?

the mobo supports up to 8000

[brisk jolt]

no 6000 is basically the sweet spot atp just care about lower CL

[shell void]

6000cl30-38-38-96 is the default recommendation for Ryzen AM5 because all CPUs should be able to run it, and it should be SK-Hynix memory which is able to be overclocked further manually if you want to

[brisk jolt]

aside the fact hes at cl36 instead of 30 and he forgot a Ti for his 5070 the build is fine

because i dont look at whatever prices i dont understand

[toxic hound]

i dont have the budget for a ti

i already have to grab the parts split into two months

[brisk jolt]

2 months is rough bcs atp you’ll be highly considering a 5070 super instead

[toxic hound]

but i might consider waiting a bit longer for the ti because 16gb vram is sweet

[toxic hound]

yeah fair

[brisk jolt]

either u go 5070ti or u wait 2026

[toxic hound]

na my 1660 cant take it anymore

[brisk jolt]

like imma be fr ur gonna have buyer’s remorse for not getting super

or a 70ti

[toxic hound]

super isnt out yet?

[pure grail]

gaslight it and urself into taking it more

[brisk jolt]

u said 2 months, which will be very close to the super series

[toxic hound]

ohhh in that sense

shit yeah then it can wait

[edgy laurel]

Its amazing how poor the game can look with no RT, no HDR and not 4K

[toxic hound]

are there any reputable leaks on the 70 super

here im reading 18gb vram

[pure grail]

ive done multiple playthroughs on 720p fsr perf on my vega igpu laptop

[toxic hound]

cant be true can it, supers are usually between default and ti

[edgy laurel]

i'm so sorry lol

[brisk jolt]

base cyberpunk is great for the first time

after RT and HDR anybody who has an actual brain will view it as night and day

[pure garnet]

the supers are using 3gb modules vs 2gb on base

[brisk jolt]

kopite7kimi which in turn videocardz.com

[edgy laurel]

ya i'm tinkering with my AM4 rig in Linux. Funny enough, just click run in Steam and it plays fine. CatchyOS

[brisk jolt]

I wanna get a shitty am4 system and play with linux there using the 9070xt

I say shitty then Ill get like a fuckin 5900x

[edgy laurel]

I guess its due to the Proton translation that the benchmark is reporting Windows 10 Pro

i'm gonna throw on RT and set FSR to Performance

[brisk jolt]

holy fucking puke

[edgy laurel]

nooooope, RX6600 did not like that!

[shell void]

wtf rainbow tubes

[toxic hound]

i get like 13 results filtering by those timings tf?

[brisk jolt]

just search cl30 its not that deep dawg

[shell void]

yah therell be a lot of different brands selling the same memory

[edgy laurel]

even with Performance mode... nope

[shell void]

g.skill, corsair, siliconpower, teamgroup, etc do not actually make the memory

theyre just testing it at 6000cl30 and then putting their branded heatspreaders on it

[fringe vigil]

News SpongeBob game announced guys

[brisk jolt]

they rob skhynix and sell them on the black market

mfw i forgot my ice cream

[shell void]

[brisk jolt]

no actually THEY forgot

[spiral quarry]

No ice cream for you

[brisk jolt]

great i asked him 3 times and im missing the bus

next is in fucking 14 mins

u have be shitting me

i had to ask 4 fucking people b4 one went in to do it in like 30 seconds

[edgy laurel]

High preset, RT Off, FSR3 Quality, 3440x1440

[brisk jolt]

great- now my drink is more warm than cold

actually fuckass

[edgy laurel]

i like how you get a timer showing you your travel time in autodrive

[brisk jolt]

one time my autodrive got stuck at an intersection with nothing in the way

[edgy laurel]

yeah its not great

[brisk jolt]

this thing sucks at turning

like its taking lines suited for a doubledecker bus

[edgy laurel]

its gotta come to a stop or nearly before every turn for some reason

[brisk jolt]

fast food my ass ts took 40 minutes

because 3 fuckers collectively decided to not spend like 30 seconds to get my missing ice cream

[oak vector]

fast track to heart disease 💔
that's the only thing fast about it nowadays

bro my mum would rave about mcdonalds in sydney back in like the 90s
and how fast paced it could be
I've never seen any of the mcdonalds in my sydney be fast like ever

too busy making tiktoks or stomping on our lettuce 💔

[shell void]

shimmer, fizzle, and moire galore

[pure garnet]

internet still stuck at 600kbps

[brisk jolt]

dude, theres nothing else after 10pm

[edgy laurel]

we're playing a different game (at 4K with Nvidia, i mean)

[pure garnet]

i got that dial up internet today

[edgy laurel]

also i despise the vignette effect. I have that disabled in RenoDX

[oak vector]

NO FR
I went to one at like 3am cos I THOUGHT THERE'D BE FOOD
they're marketed as 24/7

But no, only open to delivery drivers and drive through 💔

[pure garnet]

i mean the inside being closed at night is pretty common, they run skeleton crews

[brisk jolt]

theres one restaurant which is a 10 min walk away and the health level isnt even that much better

and no im not walking 10 mins after a day of work

[hollow path]

can i find out what bios version my mobo is using before i build my pc?
im using asrock with a 9950x and i dont want it to fucking deep fry it

[hollow hull]

Why risk it. Just flash bios

[brisk jolt]

asrock problem is only for x3d

[hollow path]

if theres a way to check why not check

then if its up to date no need to flash

[hollow hull]

do it anyways

it's quick and it's free

[edgy laurel]

If you're buying an Asrock 800 series board its entirely possible you're going to kill that chip anyway

best just do the flash, it takes a couple minutes

[hollow path]

its the b850 live mixer

[brisk jolt]

arent u on x and not x3d

afaik its only x3d problem

[edgy laurel]

its not

[hollow path]

9950x

[edgy laurel]

thats just the majority of what people buy, hence the highest rate of failure

[hollow path]

i also feel like its a bit of a scam that apprently warranty goes away if u enable expo

[edgy laurel]

...

[hollow path]

i mean like thats literally whats advertised

[edgy laurel]

(no one knows that unless you tell them)

[hollow path]

that is true

i did say that as well but..

didnt know if there was a way to check

[pure garnet]

expo is still overclocking technically

[brisk jolt]

reset cmos and they can never find out

[pure garnet]

it’s just very normalized vs manual tuning

[hollow path]

they shouldnt advertise it as the normal speed then

[pure garnet]

they don’t, the cpus have posted limits

[edgy laurel]

it is normal, XMP/EXPO is pretty normal..

[hollow path]

so u think if it does get fried i will get a replacement for the cpu and board?

i'd just lie to them and say i never changed anything

[edgy laurel]

yes, it'll just take a while. this is a daily occurance on /r/Asrock

[brisk jolt]

just lie all the way and say u didnt do jackshit

[pure garnet]

i mean yeah unless you tell them directly you voided the warranty they won’t know

[edgy laurel]

I don't know why anyone is buying their 800 series boards. 600 series was rock solid

[vocal plume]

If asked, pretend you dont even know what expo is

[hollow path]

honestly everyone glazes the livemixer board

so i thought why not yk

[pure garnet]

the biggest offender for asrock 600 series was how ugly the taichi lite is

[brisk jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/arian-von-reiji-asuna-gundam-build-fighters-reiji-eat-anime-gif-1267679584890346787

asrock honest reaction

[pure garnet]

like why

[edgy laurel]

clearly you haven't seen any of the 800 series Taichi's. completely lost it

[hollow path]

im new to this flashing bios thing btw am i supposed to do that after i download windows? I only have one usb

[pure garnet]

the x870e doesn’t look too bad

[turbid locust]

EXPO is just JEDEC^2

[brisk jolt]

maybe search a yt guide

smth along the lines of “how to flash arock bios”

[edgy laurel]

prepare the USB (instructions in the manual or ask here), plug in PSU to board (no CPU or anything else needed), plug in USB to dedicated port, flip on PSU, press button

wait ~10 minutes

[hollow path]

is there a way to do this once i download windows?

or is it best not to

[edgy laurel]

windows has nothign to do with the BIOS but sure

[hollow path]

i mean like i feel like it would be easier for me to just get windows on the usb, download it

and then update the bios

after the pc is done

[edgy laurel]

I don't understand what the difference is

[brisk jolt]

the difference is he wants u to help him shoot his foot

[hollow path]

what

[brisk jolt]

hope that helps

[hollow path]

dont understand what u mean but sure

[pure garnet]

update the bios first

[pure garnet]

installing windows first is ~30 minutes of time to degrade the cpu

what is going on with my isp

[brisk jolt]

thats normal on a new build afaik

u need to restart the system lol

[pure garnet]

nah we’re in an “outage” where it hasn’t gone done once

but it’s just unusable

[modest gazelle]

it's my wifi who's sucking up yours

(nearly typed wife instead of wifi)

[shell void]

senor skatter made a 265K video

[lunar comet]

Is there an app that shows total power consumption? Just curious to find out

[edgy laurel]

yes, if you have a compatible PSU (which most people do not). Otherwise you're just going to be looking at CPU package power + GPU board power and making an educated estimation

[dapper plaza]

Is it okay to use all 4 slots on AM5 platform?
I have 4 sticks of same memory 16g each (64 total)

And when I enable docp profile on 6000 mhz i just have no post... Or post like 1 in 4 times

This memory worked on Intel platform with same 4 sticks configuration with no issues

[edgy laurel]

For the past, what.. 3 years? We've known that 4 DIMM setups are not recommended for AM5

[dapper plaza]

Why do they exist

[edgy laurel]

If you know what you're doing, you can make it work with potentially some sacrifices

On a good chip in a competent board, 4x 6000CL30 should be able to work with a little tweaking

[vestal granite]

easier to sell 4 slot boards than 2 slot boards

people buy for upgradability even if they will never upgrade

[modest gazelle]

why do we exist

[edgy laurel]

If its an older out of date BIOS, you'll have less luck

[dapper plaza]

I had same issue on intel when i had 128gb of ddr5 running on 6600mhz

This was way much overwhelming for memory controller

But 64/6000 in four sticks worked absolutely great, why amd sucks to run it...

[edgy laurel]

the idea is to just not do this. ask before purchase and get 2x32GB instead

or 2x48GB, or even 2x64GB now

latest BIOS, possibly lowering the speed to 5600 while DOCP is enabled and it may work better. training may take a while

[brisk jolt]

tldr: no

[pure garnet]

4 stick on an 800 series board is doable but more effort than it’s worth

[shell void]

why are there not any thunderbolt 5 pcie 4.0x16 egpu docks

[turbid locust]

@merry stirrup should I be raising IMC voltage to slam primary timings or does it matter

afaik that usually only matters in gear 1 but

[topaz veldt]

His vids are so vague

[turbid locust]

Lmao battlefield fans folded so fast

Went from “DONT PRE-ORDER” to pre-ordering like crazy in a couple days lol

[edgy laurel]

i'm sure the people actually saying don't pre-order didn't, or many of them

thats like.. 1% of game buyers

there will always be people pre-ordering

[shell void]

ayymd why u no launch threadripper x3d?

it would fit perfectly with how they bin the chiplets anyway

with 3/4 of the chiplets on the 9970/9975w being 5.2GHz turds and then one good 5.6 chiplet

someone got a cheap board

[topaz veldt]

Pre order BF6 on EA or steam

[edgy laurel]

why is that a question

[topaz veldt]

I get a discount on EA

[edgy laurel]

Ah

Well, we've had it confirmed the EA launcher won't be required for Steam play.

[topaz veldt]

So should work in either?

[turbid locust]

Couldn’t pay me to willingly use EA launcher

[topaz veldt]

I don't really care I actually launch most shit from Xbox game pass jawn

[edgy laurel]

What should work, the game? Of course

[topaz veldt]

I mean will you be able to launch the EA purchase from steam

[edgy laurel]

Oh, i dunno. never tried that

you can add external titles

[hoary hatch]

Anyone want some LGA1151

[edgy laurel]

but I've not tried to do specifically that before

[topaz veldt]

I just bought phantom edition

10% off thru EA

[brisk jolt]

just tried 576.52 for auto fan stop, and it works

fuck me

[pure garnet]

recycling center

[shell void]

[brisk jolt]

fuck me its now not stopping

[hoary hatch]

I am very angry

[fresh grotto]

close enough

[hoary hatch]

this game studio should be shut down and everyone fired for the crime they committed

[edgy laurel]

appealing to the unwashed masses

[hoary hatch]

spreading misinformation

[fresh grotto]

it could have been worse (it could have said 1.5k)

yes i saw someone refer to 1440p as 1.5k no i am not joking i wish i was

[hoary hatch]

the other crime is calling 1080p just "HD"

it is Full HD smh

[fresh grotto]

no no its hd we do not talk about actual "hd"

720p is not HD no i refuse

[green marsh]

hey, at least they added quotes around it

[vale cosmos]

nah 720p is HD, 1080p is Full HD, and 1440p is Quad HD

embrace

[hoary hatch]

embrace tradition

[young void]

Og xbox hd intensifies

Actually looked pretty good all things considered

[hollow path]

Oh my why did I choose assrock

Now I gotta do all that

[edgy laurel]

"all that" takes a couple minutes and is something you do with any brands board when new

[hollow path]

Could’ve went with anything but assrock

[hollow path]

Never been told to do it

With any other board

[pure garnet]

asus boards had issues with zen 4, every single oem had issues with intel for 13th/14th

[edgy laurel]

Updating your BIOS? Basic first step on a board out of the box

[pure garnet]

bios updates are quite common

[edgy laurel]

lucky these days flashback is on nearly everything

[pure garnet]

never used flashback yet

i probably should’ve for my last board though, what are the odds it was still on a problematic bios for the 7800x3d in 2024

[hollow path]

Maybe with amd

Intel never seems to have any need to update

[brisk jolt]

ahem 13th/14th gen i7/i9s

[pure garnet]

anytime you’ve wanted to upgrade to a new gen of cpus you’ve had to update too

[hollow path]

Well last time I checked was 4 years ago and nothing like this was ever talked about

Idk why randomly there’s so many issues

[brisk jolt]

I mean like apart from that

[edgy laurel]

Issues always exist, whether you're in tune with them or not.

[turbid locust]

why does 2042's UI look like it's always at like 720p

[edgy laurel]

couldn't say, looks alright here

[turbid locust]

The game launched at 720p and I changed the resolution but it didn’t do the whole “screen goes back and then pops back in at new resolution” thing so I’m skeptical

But like the textures look fine

[strange ginkgo]

maybe it is before upscaling

[young void]

I bios update as much as possible after your first few times its just a download unzip and running the file in bios once named correctly

Frigging autocorrect

[edgy laurel]

oh you know what, i kinda see it

[young void]

14th gen amps and pl1/2 coughs not a big deal though. Just a nice to have to keep everything efficient

[hollow path]

Also i have seen ppl say there’s a way to check the current bios version on that mobo, if it’s already the newest then there’s no need to flash the bios

[young void]

Once in bios it should show the current version typically in the top left or right

[edgy laurel]

i kinda see it

[turbid locust]

like the UI just looks fuzzy

[edgy laurel]

so boot it up and look

[edgy laurel]

the edges of text do seem a little blurry

[hollow path]

I mean before booting it up, on the silver coin looking thing

Does it say the version there

The cmos is it called

[young void]

Also goodmorning lads, finally caught some zzzs

[edgy laurel]

somewhere, of course

[turbid locust]

sigh lol im rusty on BF rn

I dont miss this TTK

[young void]

What motherboard? Dav*

[edgy laurel]

did it actually? meaning you had to switch the PSU off then on again?

[hollow path]

B850 Livemixer

[young void]

Ill browse rq

[hollow path]

Wait why that reaction is that board shit 😭

Bro I knew I shouldn’t have went with assssrock

[young void]

Im gonna see if i can find where it shows your bios version

[turbid locust]

Am I being unreasonable that a guy shouldnt be able to full sprint at me with a shotgun after I just put two rounds in his head and one in the body with an AR lol

[hollow path]

Bet

Thanks so much man

[edgy laurel]

lol battlefield @turbid locust

[young void]

So top left this demo is on version 3.2 (latest is 3.3) the # after the live mixer wifi represents the version

https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/B850 LiveMixer WiFi/index.asp#BIOS

If needed

[hollow path]

So I can check this without even turning on the pc right?

[pure garnet]

5700x3d imo but my name isn’t worm

[edgy laurel]

you need to boot into the BIOS...

[young void]

Within bios yess the first ez screen it loads. Or can download cpu z to see it there

[turbid locust]

lol

[young void]

Whatever you can get the best deals on and leaves you happy

Thats alot of part swappin

Kyoko is good to, the 5700x3d is a great gaming chip runs toasty but such was the gen

[turbid locust]

Nvidia overlay being useless once again

[edgy laurel]

its working here

[hollow path]

Well I just found it on my board

Version 3.30

[young void]

So no needs

[hollow path]

It’s a little white sticker

[young void]

Ggs 6/17 was 3.30s release and can I see a pic of the sticker placement

[hollow path]

Let’s gooo

Also am I supposed to take these stickers off or just leave them on?

I never knew if you’re supposed to

[edgy laurel]

I don't understand the excitement and aversion to having to perform basic PC tasks

[hollow path]

I’m just happy I’m not gonna have to waste my time downloading something extra onto the usb drive to then have to download windows again onto it after

[edgy laurel]

its a sticker, take it off if you want.. there is no "supposed to" about them

[young void]

If its covering absolutely anything other then traces id take it off

[edgy laurel]

buddy its a 20MB file.. drag and drop and press a button

[young void]

Anything that can get warm won't be amaze balls

[hollow path]

I don’t care what it is tbh bru

It’s still annoying

No need to worry about it cus mines already latest version

[hollow path]

Alright

[edgy laurel]

shame, missed opportunity to learn something

[floral spear]

I hate cs2 so much

[hollow path]

I guess you’re right

[young void]

Future things, you'll get a chance eventually its not so bad

[turbid locust]

cant even get presentmon to work

[edgy laurel]

when the next BIOS comes out that may actually fix this problem, updating then?

[young void]

I need to teach the misses on my next update

She thinks she cant do these things but I know she can with ease

[hollow path]

Yes

[young void]

A new ui is always scary but once you know where all the buttons are

[hollow path]

But hopefully this bios has already fixed it 😢

[edgy laurel]

daily failures even on 3.30 on /r/Asrock

[hollow path]

On the 9950x?

[edgy laurel]

9000 series

[hollow path]

Should I return the board

It’s not too late yet

[edgy laurel]

now you ask this?

[hollow path]

I can still return it

[edgy laurel]

I wouldn't be running an 800 series Asrock board

but you do you

[hollow path]

What board should I get instead

[edgy laurel]

I just wouldn't have bought it, not saying return it.

[pure garnet]

how much was the live mixer

[edgy laurel]

I can't help with what else to buy, turns into too much of a thing

[hollow path]

@pure garnet https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/fWTMNz here are all the prices

Of the parts

[hollow path]

Fair enough

[shell void]

looks good

[pure garnet]

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/VtJBD3/gigabyte-b850-aorus-elite-wifi7-ice-atx-am5-motherboard-b850-aorus-elite-wifi7-ice this looks good for a couple bucks more if you wanted to get off the asrock board

[hollow path]

I’m only waiting on the aio now

I could still buy a new board and return old

[pure garnet]

black is same price but didn’t have availability in stock that i saw

[shell void]

i wouldve recommended B850/X870 Tomahawk instead, but the B850 Livemixer looks fine

[pure garnet]

tomahawk was 225 england dollars

vs 176

[hollow path]

I rlly hope im covered under warranty then

I didn’t have a good feeling about asrock but so many people glaze the live mixer boards especially for a workstation build

And I just went with it for some reason

[turbid locust]

sniper headshots in battlefield are always so satisfying fr

[willow ruin]

Quick question - reseating this CPU, didn't notice the pin setup. 3 pin cable, 4 pin connector - which isn't used?

[edgy laurel]

Plug into any 4-pin connector. Preferably one labeled Pump if you have one

That is power to the pump… kinda essential

(Yes, I’m aware it’s a 3pin plug, it still is meant to work)

[pure garnet]

the connector is keyed to only go in one side to answer the question

[turbid locust]

hmmmm

Should i go am5 with less than 500$ not considering the gpu

[shell void]

you should try to get on AM5 if possible, but if you can’t then i recommend going for a 12th/13th gen core i5 instead of buying into AM4

[toxic isle]

Why’s that

[hoary hatch]

you can probably get AM5

unless pricing in your country is ass

is that $500 for CPU/board/ram?

[toxic isle]

Its so ass thats the thing

[hoary hatch]

or like the whole system except gpu

[toxic isle]

Yeah

[hoary hatch]

damn

[toxic isle]

I have a temporary 580 and gonna get a 5060 in like 2026

[quick skiff]

should i get a sag bracket for a 5060 or get the ryzen 7 5700

i have a 5600 rn

[edgy laurel]

why is that an "or" question

sag bracket for your GPU or a CPU..?

also don't buy a 5700 ever

[pure garnet]

unless you have a 5060 astral or something ridiculous you don’t need a sag bracket

[fringe vigil]

I have 5090

[edgy laurel]

no you don't

[pure garnet]

where’s that guy with like 8 of them snails talked about

[drowsy pumice]

What key do I press to go into the BIOS on MSI Mag X670E Tomahawk?

[edgy laurel]

Del

its almost always Del

that or F1, F2, F12... but in most cases it will be Del

[pure garnet]

it’s del on the z790 tomahawk of same year

msi didn’t change the bios again till the 800 series amd boards

[fringe vigil]

Sorry 4090

I keep forgetting we have 50 series
Lol

[fringe vigil]

That’s sick

Why is there a man pregnant emoji

[wraith steeple]

I don't speak emoji

So I have no clue what pregnant man means

[edgy laurel]

i don't either, but i don't question things anymore

[fringe vigil]

Then stay silent

[edgy laurel]

....

[pure garnet]

listen and learn

[young void]

Lmao I'm just crudposting at this point ngl

Michael also likely teasing

But idk xD open to interpretation

[edgy laurel]

watch the best coverage of BF6 available out there on it https://youtu.be/wheuWbLz6X0

[fringe vigil]

When was this

[edgy laurel]

Drewski is the goat of milsim content thats actually entertaining

[fringe vigil]

What’s that

[edgy laurel]

jorj where have you been

[fringe vigil]

No mislim

[edgy laurel]

military simulation

BF isn't, really.. but many of the people that play them also enjoy BF

[young void]

I wanna try it out looks wickedds

[edgy laurel]

and you can play the open beta next weekend

no campaign though

[pure garnet]

do you need to preorder for open beta

or is it like open to the public open

[edgy laurel]

nope, open to everyone on the 9th and 10th, then 14-17th

if you were a BF Labs tester or watched an hour of streamer content the other day during the reveal, you got early beta access on the 7th and 8th

[young void]

No time at the moment but once the kids go back to school it's on lol

[turbid locust]

this is still diabolical to me

[edgy laurel]

i just see pretty low end CPU's so that tels me it'll play well

[turbid locust]

low end cpus for 30-80fps yeah lmao

[edgy laurel]

70-80fps sounds fantastic to me

[turbid locust]

cannot relate

playing an fps game under 120hz makes me wanna throw up

[edgy laurel]

Also i have one of the top 3-4 CPU's available to buy for gaming so i'm not sweating it

[edgy laurel]

render rate and framerate are mutually exclusive

er, framerate and refresh rate

[turbid locust]

guilty ykwim

[edgy laurel]

a smooth consistent 80fps where I can fling my mouse back and forth and not feel the image draaaaging is perfect

[turbid locust]

under 120 doesnt feel great to me idk

for an fps game

For the witcher? 90fps is cool

[edgy laurel]

gah, this really is the best coverage available right now.

[shell void]

same

80fps is stuttery

and feels sloggy

[turbid locust]

Mike I found a game where the 14900k is a major buff

[shell void]

[edgy laurel]

that feeling is the worst, but I don't feel it until 60ish

[drowsy pumice]

What could it mean if my bios isn't opening up when i hit del?

[edgy laurel]

keyboard is broken, or about 100 other basic things wrong with the PC

luckily we have #1027757333117415424 to help you

[merry stirrup]

can i have the best one for cheap-ish

[lime salmon]

have you tried f2 or f12? or at least checking the button for your motherboard

[drowsy pumice]

Tried f2,f12, and del. I'll just wait for someone to hopefully help on tech-support

[merry stirrup]

do we know about the commands or is this an MBR system

[turbid locust]

I hope Zip Tie Tuning continues with the at home garage tinkering on cars and not just become a car review channel

[merry stirrup]

i dont think we know baout the commandds

how long has this guy been struggling to get into his bios and nobody gave him the useful command for this

[frank cypress]

or be me and do them all at the same time

[merry stirrup]

cmd admin prompt:shutdown /r /fw /t 0

if it says it cant find the environment variable just hit the up arrow on your keyboard re send the command

if it says it doesnt support it, you have an MBR system, and that command wont work

[drowsy pumice]

Even your method didn't work 😭 still no signal

[merry stirrup]

your bios is probably in MBR then

[edgy laurel]

if you have no signal, trying to get to the BIOS isn't the most useful thing to be doing

[merry stirrup]

reset your cmos and try again

[merry stirrup]

i think it goes into windows but it doesnt go into the bios

which is almost certainly a uefi/mbr and video driver thing

but the bios drivers ykwim

[edgy laurel]

somebody else then who couldn't boot at al

[merry stirrup]

if its that then ignore me but i thought this guy was just trying to get to the bios

[turbid locust]

why are we just not clearing CMOS atp and going into setup

[merry stirrup]

this

[edgy laurel]

it was him #tech-chat-2 message

couldn't translate that

[merry stirrup]

so it worked at one point and msi drivers came and installed

and he restarted and it didnt work

okay yeah clear cmos and try again

ensure the ram is properly seated

ensure the SSD is properly seated

[drowsy pumice]

All should be seated right ( SSD not sure because case led with a storage icon is flashing🤷) Is clearing CMOS replacing the battery? First Pc build sorry if dumb question

[vestal granite]

if del doesnt work just spam every button on your keyboard

its normally just laptops that have different keys though

[merry stirrup]

i said check

and yes it is the battery

youd be surprised how many systems ive seen turn on but one of the ram sticks is actually not in all the way and it causes wild issues

just do errythang

[drowsy pumice]

Thanks🙏

[devout ridge]

Why does my Ubuntu VM keep saying "No bootable device." when trying to launch it?

i have storage allocated to it

Using the VM feature on TrueNAS

[vale cosmos]

does the vm have an iso?

[granite dirge]

i am so just mentally dead, at my family friend and how spoiled she raised one of her kids,

they are getting a 7800 3d and a 9060 32gb 6000 and 2tb nvme pc given to them for free, and upset as its not an intel cpu...

saying it wont be enough for the games they play... which is roblox, fifa, call of duty , and fortnite.

i want to throttle her child ,for making her cry thinking she spent, 2 grand on a bad pc,

[edgy laurel]

they're just clueless if those words came out of their mouth.

just laugh to yoursef

[granite dirge]

i literally went through peice by peice with her and was like, this is better than what i have, this is better than i have, i have the same part, etc,

and said, you should have called me and i could have saved you a 250$ build fee and5%

but, yeah, spoiled brats,

also, hyper 212 on a 7800x 3d, they should get a better cpu cooler right?

[edgy laurel]

they bought way too good of a CPU for only a 9060

but w/e, its getting cheaper now

[granite dirge]

i mean, microcenter, did the parts list for them, and are building it

[edgy laurel]

bundle deal

[pure garnet]

yes

the 5800x3d already lost gaming performance under it when i had one

i had to run it at 65w ppt to not throttle until i got my new cooler

[edgy laurel]

yes

[hoary hatch]

So do you want Skylake or Skylake++

The Xeon board is a more interesting board but worse CPU
The z370 is a piece of shit board but better cpu

[edgy laurel]

So funny. (All of this is bullshit till it’s tested for real)

oh i see

[merry stirrup]

does his friend have tuned ram or does his friend have 4800 ram

[sturdy rock]

hello I am new to this server and building pc's in general and was wondering if I could get some help from anyone

[merry stirrup]

lmaao theyre comparing to a full tune 9800x3d arent they

[broken edge]

#1106613567966429224 for building help

[sturdy rock]

it isn't building help I need

just having issues with GPU

[broken edge]

then #1027757333117415424

[topaz veldt]

I'll check this out

[edgy laurel]

yeah who know. frankly i don't even really know how people are playing it at all outside of the PC's provided at the LA event

[merry stirrup]

i think there was a playtest or sumn you could get on twitch

idk

[edgy laurel]

too many variables too with differing upscaling levels and FG

until its actually out and tested for real, it don't matter

[merry stirrup]

yeah

going to assume provided pcs dont exactly have favorable ram configurations

[edgy laurel]

Here is what I can say.. ain't nobody coming out of that LA event talking about poor performance, or really anyone at all

i think we're going to have a winner

[broken edge]

thats no longer available next week and the week after that is free for all on the weekends

[merry stirrup]

so it was available

[sturdy rock]

ok thanks, I will wait for any help there

[edgy laurel]

all the streamers playing it on Thursday where physcially AT the LA event

[merry stirrup]

and thats how people were playing

fair

[edgy laurel]

not talking about that, we know about that

[hoary hatch]

Old gaming Xeon board

[broken edge]

early access was the twitch drops

[edgy laurel]

Yeah, still not talking about that

[hoary hatch]

It's got some PCI slots if that interests ya

[merry stirrup]

oh i see you didnt really say that very well

[edgy laurel]

talking about the streamers playing it this past thursday.

[broken edge]

that was given to them by ea

[wraith steeple]

[edgy laurel]

I understand that. Please follow through here. Talking about how people are talking about playing it on different hardware outside of what was provided at the event.

[hoary hatch]

In the house we currently have
5 Asus boards
2 MSI boards
1 Gigabyte board
0 ASRock

[broken edge]

i wasnt talking about hardware i was talking about the playtest

[edgy laurel]

@shell void do you still have the link to those 14900K die shots

[hoary hatch]

Realistically is biostar even in north America

[wraith steeple]

I never saw my local Micro Center carried BioStar once

[hoary hatch]

We had 1 ASRock board but got rid of it

[wraith steeple]

Hell IDEK if CompUSA carried them back in the day

I wonder if any here remembers ECS/PC Chips

[edgy laurel]

I was 10 in 1996.. "I" didn't have anything other than the family Mac

[wraith steeple]

I do recall seeing ECS boards in displays back when CompUSA was still around (had that interesting Purple PCB going on)

This was back in 06-07

CompUSA was on its deathbed at that time

[wary panther]

guys can someone help me with a bios update

[edgy laurel]

what motherboard

[wary panther]

asrock x470 gaming 4k

something like that

[edgy laurel]

Fatal1ty X470 Gaming K4

[wary panther]

Fatal1ty X470 Gaming K4

yes

[final glacier]

fake cache on many pc chip motherboards

[shell void]

90-MXB7E0-A0UAYZ

[wraith steeple]

Yep they were the epitome of 90s computing trash

[hoary hatch]

Oh ASRock used to have such good naming

I think my roommate had a fatality board

[wary panther]

Ok so i need help with this

[turbid locust]

guys I cant find my furnace

[wary panther]

What's this AMD all in one VGA driver?

[scarlet iron]

Why is ur GUI so tiny

[wary panther]

high resolution maybe

[scarlet iron]

That doesn't correlate

I keep mine at size 3 always

[turbid locust]

because mc has like 3 UI scaling options: microscopic, decent, and boomer

[edgy laurel]

empty, freshly formatted with FAT32 USB stick (USB2 if you have one). unzip the BIOS you want to flash. Drag JUST the BIOS file to the USB stick. Insert into PC and boot into the BIOS. Tools tab > Instant Flash

[turbid locust]

mines on 3

[wary panther]

No, i know that

[wary panther]

I updated my bios before but i need with driver

[edgy laurel]

to what version

surely not 1.90 from 2018

[wary panther]

I have to update to 1.90 before i can update to any newer version

[turbid locust]

craft.

[edgy laurel]

So what is the question. What version are you on now?

[wary panther]

dude

[edgy laurel]

If you're on 1.90, there is a link for what to do. If you're not on 1.90 yet, there is another link for what to do

So i'm not following where the disconnect is

[turbid locust]

@edgy laurel do you have a preferred image viewing application

[wary panther]

this part what does this mean

[edgy laurel]

It means there is some necessity for that driver

I have no idea why

[wary panther]

but its an old sass driver

when i tried to install it tried to delete my newst driver for amd

also i've seen on reddit that its only for apu's and that you shouldnt install it if you have a dedicated gpu

[edgy laurel]

Frankly, it probably has to do with APU's and their video output through the motherboard.

[wary panther]

Soo what do i do?

[edgy laurel]

if you have a dGPU, I have no idea why you would need to worry about a GPU driver unless it flashes some sort of firmware on the board that will break with more current BIOSes

probably have some googling and reading to do

[wary panther]

Well they didnt specify what to do if you arent using a dgpu

[edgy laurel]

the second link may give some hints https://download.asrock.com/TSD/Display recovery SOP.pdf

[edgy laurel]

Photos

[wary panther]

yeah i've read that

from what i understand i dont need the driver

[edgy laurel]

After updating the BIOS to a version with AGESA version AMD PinnaclePI-AM4_1.0.0.5 or later,
Raven Ridge CPU requires AMD allin1 driver ver:18.10.20 or newer to get onboard display under
the OS. If you experience issues with onboard display with a Raven Ridge CPU under the OS,
please use one of the following two methods to recover the display output.

So exactly what I thought

[wary panther]

yeah so?

what do i do

[edgy laurel]

it sounds like if you don't do that, you'll possibly brick the ability to use onboard video.. but boohoo

[wary panther]

erm

that sounds scary

[edgy laurel]

Up to you, i take zero responsibility here. You can skip the instructions and just update to the latest, or not.

What CPU are you running?

[wary panther]

2700x

Ok so im just gonna update the bios and if i brick my mbo ill just blame you guys

[edgy laurel]

Thats cool

[wary panther]

im kidding but give me some advice

what do i do

[edgy laurel]

At this point, i'd probably just do it. past 3.40 though, it says

*ASRock do NOT recommend updating this BIOS if Pinnacle, Raven or Summit Ridge CPU is being used on your system.

[fervent scaffold]

Just a random question, my buddy is just curious, hes had his PC for years and is wondering how solid of a balance a Ryzen 7 3700x and 6800xt are together

[edgy laurel]

And you're running Pinnacle Ridge

[wary panther]

yeah

[fervent scaffold]

I think it sounds like a solid setup

[wary panther]

but also one thing it says that my cpu supports all bios versions

[edgy laurel]

So either 1.90 then 3.40, or just straight to 3.40

[wary panther]

in the bios validation tab

[turbid locust]

if hes getting the performace he wants, then thats what matters'

[wary panther]

but it says that i need to update to 1.90 before going further tho

[edgy laurel]

🤷‍♂️

[fervent scaffold]

He is, but was just more curious if that sounds like a decent bottleneck by one or the other. I think its a pretty solid setup personally

[edgy laurel]

They're both suitable old. The whole thing is a bottleneck

[wary panther]

spark what do i do

[edgy laurel]

but if it does what they want, there it is

[wary panther]

helpp

I think im just going to update to 1.90

[edgy laurel]

Flash 1.90 then 3.40 i guess

[wary panther]

right

well wish me luck that i dont brick my shi

ill come back when the bios hopefully updates

[edgy laurel]

excuse to get something newer

also is the system working as is?

[fringe vigil]

why are you g

[wary panther]

It’s updating

It is working fine

30%

[vestal granite]

i have waited 20 years for this

i also did other stuff in that time so like its not super important to me but like its neat that this game is out

[turbid locust]

mint

[fringe vigil]

its big gy al

i love him in south park

[wary panther]

Well it’s done

I booted to windows guys

I’m going to download 3.40 now

[fringe vigil]

jasko i dont think we care

[edgy laurel]

jorj stop

[topaz veldt]

Too much M/Ts for you

[edgy laurel]

(here comes the jk)

[turbid locust]

All that for worse gaming performance

[topaz veldt]

Its hard to hear you over 300 fps sorry what

[turbid locust]

If there was a more powerful gpu worth the money I'd have one

[topaz veldt]

5090 is the power of several earths

[turbid locust]

by power he means double the power draw

[fringe vigil]

https://youtu.be/wheuWbLz6X0?si=0YCJ1tTk0CJ9lj0d playing this game like hes actually fighting in a war

💀

[topaz veldt]

It has the power to make everyone upset

[topaz veldt]

Yes, its called Battlefield

[edgy laurel]

best video

Drewski is so well spoken, knows whats up

[topaz veldt]

@edgy laurel Do you have issues with Nvidia App overlay (fps) in BF2042?

[turbid locust]

Someone remind me to pre-install next week

[edgy laurel]

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. for @turbid locust the same

[turbid locust]

I do

[topaz veldt]

I pre-ordered so you know it'll be good

[fringe vigil]

it looks decent idk if i will love MP

[topaz veldt]

Mine never works

[turbid locust]

I couldnt even get PresentMon to work earlier

[edgy laurel]

It was working for me earlier today, then tonight it was just N/A's

[topaz veldt]

have yet to not see N/As

[turbid locust]

oh btw 5nail I got a haircut today

[fringe vigil]

is there actually a capmaign

[topaz veldt]

there is literally zero chance that is true

[edgy laurel]

jorj there was a whole trailer for it last week, you watched it

[fringe vigil]

[edgy laurel]

Also @topaz veldt did you see the BR teaser?

[turbid locust]

It's been awhile since I dailied a board with a real post code.... but is it meant to almost always be cycling codes the entire time my system is in use lol

[topaz veldt]

the one you pinged me on earlier/

[topaz veldt]

not sure what DeepCool calls it

[edgy laurel]

In that long stream, it was part of the presentation

[turbid locust]

lmao the characters in 2042 are so annoying

[topaz veldt]

I've been a bit distracted I am not sure

[topaz veldt]

My wife came in this AM I was playing ... it was some character named "Crawford" shes like uhh.. so.... thats ...you?

It was like in that kevin hart movie where he calls himself Black Hammer online

[edgy laurel]

its only like 45 seconds long, at the timestamp https://youtu.be/c_BRbvYxgOY?t=1351

[fringe vigil]

i need more campaign videos

[turbid locust]

LMAO

[wary panther]

guys my bios is on 3.40 now

everything looks diffrent lowkey

[shell void]

lowkeyly

[wary panther]

btw why does my ram speed say 3000MT/s

it was 1500mhz i think

[turbid locust]

guess

[wary panther]

I mean i know but what does it mena

[turbid locust]

guess

[wary panther]

idk

[edgy laurel]

the switch from Mhz to MT/s was part of Windows

not BIOS related

did you have XMP on before, and now?

[wary panther]

yes

[edgy laurel]

If you updated the BIOS, everything is reset

[wary panther]

i know i enabled it again

ts like my 4th time updating bios

[shell void]

MT means megatransfer, it's just a jargon word to mean one million data transfers, and DDR (double data rate) memory transfers data twice per clock cycle

so with 1500MHz youre getting 3000(m) data transfers per second, aka 3000MT/s

[turbid locust]

I hope ARs are like viable in BF6

they're so mid in 2042

[wary panther]

makes sense

[shell void]

3000 million transfers per second 🔥

[wary panther]

goated

[turbid locust]

I cant tell if im out of the loop of BF but 2042's pacing feels so odd

[edgy laurel]

I was playing a few hours ago and had a good round. Thinking to mysef man peope shit on this game but i'm having fun

[turbid locust]

Like im having a decent time it's just theres situations where im like... questioning the game

Like how do I die so quick but it takes me seemingly 7+ hit markers to kill lol

[edgy laurel]

I have probably the most "hours" using the SVK, marksman rifle

can two tap people absurdly fast

so I can see that

[turbid locust]

well its like sometimes I absolutely laser people

then I get in a similar gunfight, get like 6 hitmarkers, and they took like 40 damage

[edgy laurel]

either just shitty code or network latency, one or the other

also I can't unsee this now. the UI really does look like its rendered at a lower res

at least here in the menus

[fringe vigil]

2024 mp was so sht

[edgy laurel]

jorj.. you don't own the game, you don't play it and what is this "was"

[fringe vigil]

i played it foo

sht

[edgy laurel]

just saying words because you heard someone else say it

[fringe vigil]

I PLAYED IT when it was free on steam

[topaz veldt]

There's a huge discrepancy in TTK if you get a headshot or similar

Not one shot but 2-3 after

[turbid locust]

yeah im getting like 2 headshot indicators and they still have like 40-60 health after

[shell void]

it whispers sweet nothings in my ear late at night from beyond the blackwall

[turbid locust]

lol I just went 8-0 in a dom match but had 17 support assists

[turbid locust]

Yeah thats what I'm saying about the ARs though

in almost every situation id rather have a marksman rifle/sniper or SMG

I feel like theres not much mid range for ARs

and what midrange gunfights you get in, you can get away with an SMG or Marksman rifle

[turbid locust]

Even my steam overlay looks bad like

[neat shuttle]

I love the clear controller

[turbid locust]

ok theres a dude just jumping around like a maniac with a one shot crossbow

[topaz veldt]

The shotguns are a bit wtf

[edgy laurel]

most fun is the small conquest on that long map, default shotgun with mods and either buckshot or flacette shells

one pumping doods

[arctic bronze]

Pause

[turbid locust]

Havent ran into too many but iirc theyve always been like that in battlefield lol

[topaz veldt]

Yeah

nothing will one shot, which i guess it has to be that way

[devout ridge]

i have 5 batteries and only 2 work

but i need 3 to use it with my ups

[heavy mantle]

It was the window lol it was raining

[heavy mantle]

Close austin

[shy helm]

they look a little similar

[heavy mantle]

Ye they kinda

[sudden lake]

i have one that works

i used it to try and start a broken moped 🙏

also used it for audio tech stuff

[turbid locust]

Somebody tell me I don’t need a 1995 525i

[edgy laurel]

You don't. Instead make it a 1995 540i

[young void]

I meannn, who am I to kill ones dreams

[wise bear]

You aren't, I am though

:3

[young void]

14600k for 164 at walmart almost tempting for funsies

[young void]

On cod nothing more satisfying then hitting somone with a good c4 throw definitely a fav

[hoary hatch]

I think I recognize that trapezoid

I’ve grown to like E34’s recently for some reason

I know basically nothing about them mechanically, but they look cool

[brisk jolt]

mac you have 4 options

1: You need it
2: What else other than it do you need
3: You dont need it
4: How else are u buying a 6090

[turbid locust]

I got bills to pay and no room for a project car

that’s my option rn

but they’re cool

[heavy mantle]

Ye

Thats the indeed bulding

Near j.j pickle ut austin research center

[analog scroll]

BMP's are fun to shred with lots of stuff

cause they're made of reinforced tissue paper

[hoary hatch]

My company moved our US HQ from outside Austin to downtown

Supposedly the new one is a lot nicer but I've not been yet

I only went to the old one once

It was also nice but over time they clearly didn't need as much office space as the facility had

The new one is supposed to be less office space and more training rooms I think

I tried to con my way into going to Austin again but they said I didn't need to do orientation as a FTE if I've already done it as a contractor

[brisk jolt]

rtx 6090 is more important how else u gonna run gta 6 at 4k 240fps path traced

[merry stirrup]

12c hotspot delta is enough to make a grown man cry (card is shunted it’s at 320w)

[brisk jolt]

thats quite good ngl

[merry stirrup]

yes

[frozen bay]

that hotspot is mighty cool 🙏

compared to whatever tf my card ends up doing anyways

[brisk jolt]

iirc the 5070ti aero at 330w 100% rom maxed at like fkin 60c

if im not wrong its using the aorus master design with both being 3.5 slot

[frozen bay]

very large card

im using an asrock steel legend 9070xt

not as good cooler so higher temps make sense ig

[brisk jolt]

my 9070xt

[frozen bay]

eh not my style

[floral spear]

The Yeston

[brisk jolt]

the 5070ti aero

[frozen bay]

thats a clean one

[brisk jolt]

heres the 4080 sakura sugar

[frozen bay]

9070xt

i dont like the rgb fans so they are off

[frozen bay]

im honestly not a huge fan of yeston cards outside of the simpler white ones with designs on the back

[brisk jolt]

aorus master

[frozen bay]

pretty good

i only got one gpu jeez i dont got that many 😭

[brisk jolt]

a 5080 aero picture i stole

[frozen bay]

thievery!

if the 7800xt sakura design was on more cards thatd be so good

actually best looking gpu imo

[brisk jolt]

sakura wedding?

heres a 4060 PNY and the LE B580

[frozen bay]

this one

my only issue is the rgb fans

id love to just get the backplate and frontplate and use them but my 9070xt obv would fit them

[brisk jolt]

thats the spectral white hellhound

but customised

[frozen bay]

yeah its the sakura edition

[brisk jolt]

i thought we were talking yeston lel

[frozen bay]

nah

yeston products are too weeby for me

[brisk jolt]

aorus master ice

[frozen bay]

clean af

[brisk jolt]

i might get either a 80 super FE or astral

[strange ginkgo]

personally i don't like it at all

[livid flame]

White is just so hard to get right. The way the materials make slightly different shades compared to black you can get identical finish I find it a bit ugh to look at white. Then again I don’t care too much for aesthetics as I tend to never look at my gpu

[fickle karma]

nahh yall flexing all these gpu's while ill regret my whole life for buying a b580 instead of a 7700xt

[noble urchin]

i bought a 5070 for 600 at the very early release moments, and its down to 500, and now the 5070 Super TI comes out for like 600 and im stuck

[fickle karma]

the b580 has most problems than u think

it's so bad

[noble urchin]

same for 50 series gpus

random crashes, uncompatibility

[fickle karma]

whit the b580 if u don't cap to 60 fps u can't play a older game whitout stuttering

[noble urchin]

and no HotSpot temp sensor

same with the 5070. i need to cap to 60 aswell

cause it generates too many frames

[fickle karma]

so why at 60?

and not at 120 240

[noble urchin]

cause the game engine isnt meant to past 60fps?

2005 32bit engine 🤣

[fickle karma]

alr

[noble urchin]

with memory leaks

[fickle karma]

i mean the only game that i didn't stutter whitout 60 fps cap was cyberpunk and cs2

[noble urchin]

to the point where the game breaks itself

ui unresponsive/freeze, the ai becomes stupid? audio exhaustion, weird flickering/stuttering

[fickle karma]

yeah i remember when 5070 was supposed to have 4090 performance

[noble urchin]

if multi-frame is enabled

which i cant, cause no game supports it

[fickle karma]

fr

same whit xess

i mean why would i need xess in mortal kombat 1

[noble urchin]

i wanna break the world record for being the first ever to break the engine from its engine without actually interacting with the engine

its quiet easy

just play in one session ~60+ hours

[fickle karma]

yeah ig

the tdp of the b580 they said is of 190w max i got in 4k was 115 lol

[noble urchin]

i got my 5070 OC like 280W

even though its rated for 200W

[lone scarab]

hmm

[frozen bay]

4k on a b580 is crazy work

[fickle karma]

nah on callisto protocol on ultra it runs well

60 fps whit 1% low of 40

i did test only on that yeah cause it was the most gpu intensive game that i had

[frozen bay]

literally unplayable 🙄

[fickle karma]

then the b580 is unplayable

[frozen bay]

im kidding

[fickle karma]

u can't play whitout 60fps cap

u will stutter alottt

i hate that cause i have 240hz monitor

[frozen bay]

even on esports games?

[fickle karma]

cs2 on low preset runs 350fps whit 1%low of 100 -200 1080p

[frozen bay]

they some bad lows

[fickle karma]

atleast max temp i got was 63

on gpu utilization 100%

[frozen bay]

maybe ur issue is 1% lows

[fickle karma]

yes

[frozen bay]

whats ur cpu

[fickle karma]

pretty bad

5600x

[frozen bay]

prob fine for a b580 but i do know that that gpu heavily depends on cpu more than anything

[fickle karma]

yeah that's why i regret for not buying a 7700xt

didn't saw it dropped to 360 e

[fickle karma]

not on all games

only on cpu demanding like spiderman and borderlands games like this when u hit 60 % cpu utilization

1 thing i really like is the intel performance thing

[noble urchin]

guys. is this the possibility for my random pc crashes?

my ram is 6400mt/s cl32 dual rank 2x32GB
mobo msi pro b650-s wifi which supports max speeds for DUAL rank ram 6000mt/s (even with latest bios update)
cpu ryzen 7 9700x

[minor herald]

try ddr5 6000

very commen for 7000/9000 cpus to fail 6400 1;1

[noble urchin]

what about FCLK clockspeed? 2133mhz? or 2000mhz?
