so yeah, you could have shot him and if you downed him, he'd still extract with his gear. not enough time at that point to down him, full kill him, and loot him

[frail flint]

I might have to replace my 7900xtx. What gpus are around that performance these days?

[low sorrel]

5080

[topaz veldt]

so while I am looting in a menu and clicking on shit people can kill me right

[low sorrel]

Only upgrade worthwhile from an xtx is a 5090

[edgy laurel]

yup

[frail flint]

My gpu may be dead which is why I’m asking (still testing stuff)

[edgy laurel]

would rather have a 5070Ti. cooler, better features

but 5000 series Supers will be launching soonish

so the non-supers may drop in price, or the new cards may offer better value

[tardy tundra]

I need some insane suggestions for optimizing Outlook performance, I don't care how extreme, or esoteric. Already running on a Core Ultra 9 with 128 GB DDR5 in quad channel, Outlook configured for core affinity, and all the usually culprits like .ost (21GB) compression has already been done. I'm looking at throwing Optane in this thing if it will help.

[pure garnet]

i wouldn’t plan on buying a super at launch with ease

[topaz veldt]

How do I bring only one?

[edgy laurel]

hold I think Alt to split stacks

[low sorrel]

Shift or alt I forgot

[edgy laurel]

says at the bottom of the screen

[tardy tundra]

User does not have any shared folders, they just have the occasional massive e-mail, and they don't want to stare at a loading animation for 2 seconds

[topaz veldt]

ok yes alt

[edgy laurel]

Can't help you there beyond all the normal tricks you can find on google but if its a Core Ultra consumer chip, its still only dual channel. 4x DIMM's but there are still only two channels.

[pure garnet]

i can’t imagine there’s much you can do to optimize a giant email

that sounds like a 1t limit

[topaz veldt]

This game is cool

[tardy tundra]

Thanks, that confirms my suspicion after I ran some RAM benchmarks

[low sorrel]

tarkov but good

[steel stream]

tarkov but for employed people

[edgy laurel]

gottem

[jaunty arch]

is it safe for my oled monitor to automatically do a pixel refresh every time it goes into standby?

[low sorrel]

Yes

[topaz veldt]

how do i team up

[edgy laurel]

in an existing solo queue match? or before

[fringe vigil]

youre gonna get rocked in this game

[topaz veldt]

solo

[edgy laurel]

oh, well so you gotta work that out with someone in game.

even if you do agree to work together, you're not really in the same squad like if you played with fill on

[topaz veldt]

so we dont like formally team up

[edgy laurel]

so you won't see where they are with a marker over their head

[topaz veldt]

Can I roast him

[edgy laurel]

yeah its not formal like that. but at the end of a round if you both extract, you can see their name and choose to squad up which is a cool feature

[edgy laurel]

you can

and to think 5nail is doing all this with one monitor and alt-tab

crazy

[topaz veldt]

oh man i feel bad

[edgy laurel]

as soon as someone roasts you on sight enough times you'll stop feeling bad

[manic anchor]

yo guys, i need a more nerdy guy than me for this question
i am geting the tryx panorama se 360, it doesnt get very good fans, i want to have same case fans as the raidator fans. i was looking for high static pressure reverse fans and i found these 2 fans. does it make a big difference if i choose the actic over the phanteks? i mean the static pressure is better on the arctic fan

[edgy laurel]

comments speak the truth

[topaz veldt]

high static reverse is an oxymoron really

[manic anchor]

what does that mean?

[low sorrel]

damn what a pos

[topaz veldt]

it means its like fundamentally cancelling out

[manic anchor]

contradiction?

[topaz veldt]

essentially, yes

[low sorrel]

also didn't pioneer used to be good or something

[manic anchor]

how comes? btw i dont know much about fans i just asked chat gpt to see if it would create a problem

[topaz veldt]

reverse blades are not as ideal

[manic anchor]

well i am kinda stuck with reverse, i really wanna have the o11 vision

[brave panther]

lmao "stuck"

[pure garnet]

i paid 170 for my tcl and it’s been pretty good for me

[brave panther]

la di da a fan sticker is showing

[manic anchor]

this is my first pc and my first build

plz dont be judgy

[topaz veldt]

I mean I run them, but they're not the best.

@edgy laurel BF6 is brutal on CPU

[low sorrel]

Yeah it is

First game I've ever seen my 5800x and my 3060 both be at 100% usage

Guess I have to get a new PC for more frames lol

[topaz veldt]

5.44 GHz all core is nice though

[livid flame]

70c 9950x3d pulling 162w is pretty dope tbh

[topaz veldt]

I'd hate to see what an AIO/air cooler does

[livid flame]

Does that fan under the vertical gpu even do anything?

[topaz veldt]

yews

[livid flame]

Probably 85-90c. IIRC 9000s got that extra 1c to the tjmax

[topaz veldt]

huge amount of air movement, I am not trying to cool the verical GPU, thats pulling massive air thru rad

[livid flame]

On an air cooler that is

Fair enough. I thought it would hit a wall and be useless tbh

[slim pebble]

Have you tried it with the frequency CCD disabled? BF6 likes to use both because well, fuck you EA doesn’t care about your core parking driver.

[topaz veldt]

no because truthfully it uses it

[manic anchor]

you know what, i can use the fans that comes with the aio and the phanteks reverse fans to create a push pull config

[slim pebble]

I’m just curious if the frames are better or worse off

[manic anchor]

btw @topaz veldt is the pc in teh picture yours?

[topaz veldt]

yes

[manic anchor]

looks very nice

[slim pebble]

All of his PC’s are that way. 😂 like he’s building for a contest.

[steel stream]

how many times have I told you to stop posting my PCs like they are yours? FFS man

[turbid locust]

I was drawing similar power during the beta on cpu

[mild sandal]

Are there any charging blocks that can output 100W simultaneously to 2 devices?

[edgy laurel]

Pioneer has plenty of good products, those uber budget TV's just aren't one of them

[turbid locust]

Haven’t checked full release

[teal orbit]

100w each? Or 100w total

[mild sandal]

Each. Or smth that at least has 100 in one

Hmmmm

I should be doing my pre-lab work but Arc Raiders is more important

[topaz veldt]

It was just crashing on 9950X3D so I switched to 285K 5090 and its crashing there also

It really wasn't, yeah. Lol.

And because they tried to file it so late anyway, it wasn't going to work out regardless.

[young void]

As somone who dabbles in code, im all for owning your intellectual rights but they where alittle silly on that one

drops bread "sighs"

[vestal granite]

i think intellectual rights are a scam invented by nvidia to make amd worse

[young void]

Not sure context but maybes

I just meant if you create a charachter or something unique its ownable but for somethings thats a use tool it gets grey quick

[random flame]

Would that imply they managed to time travel somehow then?

I dont know.I never owned anything from apple

[random flame]

I have owned multiple things from them, just not any of the current stuff (US headphone dongle aside).

[steel stream]

ok I am just going in everytime with a free loadout

[shell void]

did someone say panther lake?

[spiral quarry]

Surprisingly I never owned any dongles from them just devices but once in a blue moon upgrade.

[odd sable]

no

[spiral quarry]

Actually wait no i have TB2 adapters when I had a 2015 MBP

[small aurora]

It was a way to good deal for the price against all other laptops

m3 with 32gb of ram for 800 euros

[small aurora]

its was way better deal than all other

in general, dont look at specs, look at benchmarks

[fringe vigil]

brr brr patapim

[small aurora]

yea I look at benchmarks

to be clear it m series are not perfect.They are slower against amd and intel in complet but both are still e worse then singel core performac with I need more then general cpu power

I dont didnt buy the macbook to play games

I bouth it mostly for programming

and in the end of the day if dont like it I allways can just resell it

[pure garnet]

amd dropping rx6000 drivers already is quite a choice to make

[mild sandal]

Wait they're doing what?

[pure garnet]

rdna 1 and 2 are being moved to security fixes only maintenance releases

so rx5000 and rx6000 cards

[hidden birch]

Remember how a few days ago I asked about Lossless scaling and if I could have it generate frames on my Intel UHD iGPU? I bought it today and tested it out. It absolutely can NOT generate frames quick enough to help the laptop's 1660Ti. It only outputs around 30 FPS. The GTX 1660Ti loses around 20% while scaling but can easily get from 50 to 144 FPS, it's really nice

[teal orbit]

ts pmo sm icl

[pure garnet]

Thank you bbaovanc, Very Cool!

it's OK the open source devs will keep it updated for us. Surely not just break mesa stability on my GPU for a year

Is YouTube actively messing with users who use anything but a stock browser to play vids?

for months it's been a gigantic PITA to watch anything on there with a VPN and UBO on

[shell void]

yes

[pure garnet]

haven’t seen any footage but she was getting a couple hundred in deadlock so i’d imagine it’s good

[shell void]

watching youtube with an adblocker is considered piracy, and google intentionally fucks with your playback to inconvenience you as punishment

[pure garnet]

if you have premium they don’t care though

[shell void]

yeh cus youre a paid user at that point so it isnt piracy

[mild sandal]

Is it worth 17 bucks for a cable?

[shell void]

i use youtube so often that having premium is a nobrainer

[merry stirrup]

kyoko do high heatspreader dimms fit under your cooler

i might have to delid these right away

[edgy laurel]

higher than tridents?

[merry stirrup]

as high as tridentsz

amazon.com/gp/product/B0DD2HV83N?ref=ppx_pt2_dt_b_prod_image

[shell void]

seems like a normal price to me, but what are you going to use this cable for?

it only supports 20Gbps data transfer so it's not a substitute for a Displayport 1.4 cable if that's what youre going for

[edgy laurel]

for a point of reference on AK620

[merry stirrup]

aight nevermind cant send shit

[merry stirrup]

issue is aio compatibility

i havent heard of any ram interfering with any aio

[edgy laurel]

why

hell yes

[shell void]

oh if it's a case problem then maybe

[merry stirrup]

it goes behind it

[edgy laurel]

oh dude that seems like a solvable problem

OH wait

[merry stirrup]

aio only fits there

[shell void]

i thought you meant the waterblock touching the ram and i was like wtf

[edgy laurel]

talking about the fans

[merry stirrup]

its not solvable unless i make the dimms ugly right away lol

[edgy laurel]

so did I

[pure garnet]

yeah

[merry stirrup]

how da hell

aight there here im gonna go grab them

been stalking the amazon truck

[pure garnet]

i wish the memory slots didn’t hug the cooler as much but i understand why it does

at 34/34 interconnect my final fantasy plaza doesn’t have stinky 0.1% lows so i’m good to just chill on arrow lake

[mild sandal]

Yeah, thinking about it, I only need 140w, to pair with this. Not even sure if this brand...

[abstract mango]

aside from turning off VPNs and/or adblockers, are there any workarounds left without paying for YTP? in my case even turning off adblockers doesn't solve the awful playback issues

[pure garnet]

the vrm fan pisses me off but i just set it to static 15%

[shell void]

just turn the shit off xd

you do not need a frickin fan for a 265K on a 22 phase vrm

[pure garnet]

i don’t know if fantastic let me or not

i’ll have to try it when i get home

asrock does this stupid thing where you have to have a 100% fan point on every curve

[shell void]

i have the vrm fan on my z690 taichi disabled

i just set it to 0% signal

[edgy laurel]

do.. do i have a VRM fan?

never bothered me

[pure garnet]

the vrm fan is high pitched so maybe you just don’t hear it

[edgy laurel]

i'm old so

[pure garnet]

i can only hear it occasionally

[shell void]

yes

[mild sandal]

Any powerbrick brand knowers here? Is this one good

[edgy laurel]

huh

[pure garnet]

i wish the ocf had dual mode power button led option, that’s literally my only compliant with it

[shell void]

asrock in their infinite wisdom put a little annoying fan on a 24 phase vrm with 105A power stages

[pure garnet]

i have the stupid bright flashing led when i sleep

so maybe i buy a front panel splitter to only hook the button up vs the led

[edgy laurel]

no idea. just buy an anker or a ugreen

[shell void]

more VCORE phases than the Asus TRX50 Sage-A

[mild sandal]

Yeah... That was the plan but the 38% off was tempting. Looking for a block that can output 100w from one port and a decent amount from another at the same time

[pure garnet]

hey man what if my 265k with intel defaults enabled overheats the 22 phase vrm

[shell void]

a board that can run a 1000W+ cpu

[pure garnet]

the slimq brick i use for my zephyrus has 2 100w c ports but i doubt they make small bricks

[edgy laurel]

damn, 7800x3D must really stress it then

[shell void]

punishing that board with your 90W steamer

[mild sandal]

What blocks do you guys use?

[pure garnet]

some anker 65w thing i bought 3 years ago

i charge my phone at night so i don’t care how long it takes

[shell void]

my 13 pro max only supports 27W max charging so i just use random old blocks, it's not something that i think about

[edgy laurel]

the only place my phone plugs in is my nightstand and its an older Apple Type C brick, think it was from my ipad.

and I don't have a personal laptop (that I use)

A Windows 11 bug is duplicating Task Manager process when you use the 'X' close button to exit it.
︀︀
︀︀This means Task Manager won’t quit on Windows 11, sending each instance to background.
︀︀
︀︀It appears that the October 2025 optional update (Build 26200.7019/26100.7019, which released with new Start menu, accidentially broke Task Manager close button for some users (not everyone will run into this issue).
︀︀
︀︀If you're affected, don't use close button to close Task Manager, as it'll create ghost entries, which use your RAM and CPU.
︀︀
︀︀To exit Task Manager, use “End task” instead.

https://tenor.com/view/vainzi-white-guy-gif-24847210

[merry stirrup]

the ocf does want to blow up your cpu at auto voltages that’s quite insane @pure garnet

[merry stirrup]

LMAOOO

[merry stirrup]

1.52 vdd2 volts at 9k

[pure garnet]

oh

interesting

[merry stirrup]

lmao

[low sorrel]

can't we 5 stack with kyoko

[pure garnet]

mines at 1.35v

[low sorrel]

in theory

[merry stirrup]

at 8 tho right

or 8400

[pure garnet]

yeah i’ve never done auto for anything

[shell void]

yeh but 5 stacking comp is a surefire way to lose unless youre playing with a team that has chemistry

[merry stirrup]

ah ah

look at this guy being reasonable with his cpu

[low sorrel]

nah

[merry stirrup]

i know realistically if anything goes wrong i’ll just rma my shit

idgaf this is my z890 trial

[brisk jolt]

its def a 70% loserate 5 stacking in plat/dia

theres simply just a shit ton of people who play together

[low sorrel]

is this why i have a 40% winrate this act

[shell void]

you only face other 5 stacks if youre 5 stacked

which means if their team is coordinated and yours isnt then gg you lost

[low sorrel]

just get better then the other 5 stack

smh

[merry stirrup]

i agree

[low sorrel]

also who tf cares about rr it's cartoon graphics childs game

[shell void]

someone get on here and run swiftplay with me right nyeow

[merry stirrup]

don’t even have it installed my homeboy

[low sorrel]

once i lose this game

[pure garnet]

i have my scheduled catgirls sorry twin

[brisk jolt]

im all the way on the other side of the map

[merry stirrup]

“the map”

[shell void]

time for you to make a NA account

and play on 250 ping champ

[low sorrel]

how we losing

[brisk jolt]

200ms ping lets go

[shell void]

peeker's advantage of doom

[low sorrel]

my team flaming each other so hard

[shell void]

i swear plats get the most butthurt about losing RR out of any rank

[brisk jolt]

peeker’s advantage ❌
playing like a bronze player with shit reaction time ✅

[shell void]

you dont have an initiator, and you dont really have an entry duelist either

[brisk jolt]

like tbh i can beat the fucking shit out of that plat 3 if i just had playtime

[pure garnet]

why are you playing in rubiks cube resolution

[shell void]

shit team comp

[low sorrel]

yoru is entry dualist

yoru is initator

[brisk jolt]

no he isnt

[low sorrel]

flash tp

[merry stirrup]

i much agree

[brisk jolt]

yoru is initiator hybrid and a drone

he flash tp risky as fuck

[merry stirrup]

assigning characters a role and then getting mad your teammates don’t play that way is why i don’t like valorant

[pure garnet]

i just lock in hot girls

[merry stirrup]

literally so real

[brisk jolt]

even in plat theres fucks who still tp and flash themselves

[low sorrel]

also initator is a dead class

[pure garnet]

or non binary pals in the case of clove

[shell void]

you have three lurk agents on one team, nobody to get info, and nobody with fast movement

well i guess you can get info with a sky dog

[low sorrel]

yeah yeah it's ranked comp doesn't matter

[pure garnet]

the cruncher does not fw me

[brisk jolt]

skye dog is shit on abyss anyway

[pure garnet]

gonna let vt3 run while i make dinner

[brisk jolt]

just dry swing everything and diff them

[merry stirrup]

💀💀real shit

[pure garnet]

i'm like 90% sure the d2d would've died already if it was unstable but confirming

[shell void]

reyna flash should be 100 credits bro it's completely fucking worthless against anyone that knows how to use a mouse

my team lost a 2v1 by both falling off the map

[merry stirrup]

worlds smartest flop response

[shell void]

program written by amd shill

[pure garnet]

this core layout bro

[brisk jolt]

remove reyna from the game and 80% of the playerbase will be crying

[pure garnet]

arrowlake is good until you see this stupid design

[merry stirrup]

it’s aggravating lowkey

[shell void]

the core layout does enrage me because it's stupid as hell for scheduling and p core latency

the minute temperature improvement was not worth doing that

[merry stirrup]

yeah minecraft launched on my ecores and i was gonna schedule it myself

[brisk jolt]

that why you should 1000% get nvl

[merry stirrup]

i went into the core affinities tab and went “oh my god how does this work again” and then didn’t change anything

[pure garnet]

i plan to get 2

[merry stirrup]

cause idk if windows is smart enough to consider 0-7 pcores

or if it’s fr how they’re laid out

[pure garnet]

52c for jedec ecc server and big cache for gamin

[merry stirrup]

and i have to select like every 2 cores idk

[merry stirrup]

i hate that you’re right

i plan to get both but both are just gonna be stupid oc computer

idk if i’ll even get 2 boards

i think i’ll just buy both chips and use the big cache after maxing a daily on the 52c

[shell void]

ill be so happy if intel backpedals on that shit with nova lake

[pure garnet]

nah they’ll somehow make it worse

[merry stirrup]

lmao

[shell void]

panther lake is front to back like ADL and RPL are, but it's only 4p8e so idk

nova lake could still be fucked

[pure garnet]

it’ll go like

p e p e or something

[merry stirrup]

pepepe

peppep

[pure garnet]

[merry stirrup]

LOL

floppa finally has a pc that doesnt have a shit board and china ram

god bless

[fringe vigil]

i have g skill

[pure garnet]

he grew up so fast

[merry stirrup]

my ram was fine before be real

[pure garnet]

if he kicks the best buy addiction he’s golden

[merry stirrup]

no i’ll go buy another aio from there

i got my naut from best buy

[pure garnet]

i probably should but

[merry stirrup]

the lga 1700 rig needs an aio

[pure garnet]

i’ve put enough into computers lately

for stresses it unironically might yeah

[merry stirrup]

and a kit of ram but a 16gb d5 stick for a minecraft server is fine

my broadwell server is struggling to host modern mc mod packs

[pure garnet]

i’m gonna put the 12900ks stuff back in 2nd pc sunday

[low sorrel]

@shell void Whats your riot id

[merry stirrup]

drops to like 17tps kinda hlows

or i’ll buy a cpu for the lga 1200 rig which i finally brought home

[shell void]

Michael#sexy

[merry stirrup]

this is peak

asrtc just made my bench os die

jm gonna assume 1.3 sa isn’t enough for 9000

[pure garnet]

1.3 sa don’t boot 8400 for me

[merry stirrup]

that is saddening

[pure garnet]

this is my daily rn

[low sorrel]

holy reyna instalock

[turbid locust]

swiftplay is brainrot

[pure garnet]

we played an unrated and it was just an hour of mindless torture

swift is fun

[turbid locust]

Zoomer TikTok attention span fried

[pure garnet]

no we just had afk smurf leveling guy

and 0 comms

[turbid locust]

I mean that’s unrated tbh

[shell void]

i dont usually

[turbid locust]

unrated is just comp but bad

[steel stream]

quick question guys

[merry stirrup]

how do we feel about me jamming 1.7 vdd into these for a low tcl daily

[pure garnet]

works

[turbid locust]

fan max

[merry stirrup]

sounds good

[steel stream]

you van only power a fan with the 3 or 4 pin connector right

[merry stirrup]

yes

[steel stream]

ok

[pure garnet]

unless it takes molex yeah

[merry stirrup]

yeah

i mean you can just jam the wires into a molex connector

[steel stream]

ok a friend is working with some RGB headers and idk anything about them

[pure garnet]

me either

[merry stirrup]

yeah i hate rgb

shit barely wants to work

[pure garnet]

rgb strips are for babies

[merry stirrup]

hey leave me alone tho i just like red computer

[steel stream]

these fans just don't seem to have pig tails and Idk how to work them

[merry stirrup]

nobody makes red parts anymore leave me alone

[steel stream]

I am also helping them over facetime

[merry stirrup]

uh plug in one for now (or how many you can) and prime a fan splitter for tomorrow

realistically 0 case fans is enough for a rig that doesn’t have a lot of case fan headers be real

[steel stream]

it has like a fan hub in built but idk anything else about it

[pure garnet]

my wife didnt have her fan hub yet so i just didnt tell her to hook up any fans but the cpu

she's current running the pc with both side panels off, highkey based

[merry stirrup]

lmao

[pure garnet]

not gonna close it till it's fully finished

[merry stirrup]

valid

okay i’m bored playing with low voltages im just gonna put 1.4 and 1.4 and call it good

[fervent scaffold]

QLED vs OLED for a bedroom TV?

[steel stream]

OLED

[fervent scaffold]

Thats what I thought, I just see a ton of QLED for sale

[pure garnet]

unless you plan on watching tv facing the sun, oled

[fervent scaffold]

I planned on mounting it to the sun itself actually

[steel stream]

solution just buy a G5

[pure garnet]

make a 42 inch one twin

[merry stirrup]

where da problem at

i’m spinning off these percs like i’m a laundromat

[steel stream]

QLED is just a marketing term to make crappy TVs sound nicer

[merry stirrup]

what is a qled explain

quantum led? what’s that even mean

[pure garnet]

quantum something

marketing for fancy lcd

[merry stirrup]

wack

micro led is cool tho

[low sorrel]

Quantum dot led

[shell void]

QLED = LCD display with a backlight that shines through quantum dots to improve color coverage

[merry stirrup]

oh okay

[edgy laurel]

slightly fancier plain old LCD

[steel stream]

yeah

[low sorrel]

I thought qled was mini Les for the longest time icl

[merry stirrup]

seems wack

[shell void]

its good tech but yeah still a lcd

[merry stirrup]

lol that’s what i was thinking

[steel stream]

ok this person is tweaking

rage bait

[low sorrel]

Til cotton candy can dry out

[merry stirrup]

wash it

[oak vector]

Solid sugar rock

[steel stream]

yeah, it's unfortunate because some TVS are just marketed as QLED mini led, which adds to confusion

[merry stirrup]

i have good news and bad news about the gskill

good ram good bin yes quite good looking

[steel stream]

it blew up?

[merry stirrup]

still can’t control its colors in software

[steel stream]

rip and tear the leds

[merry stirrup]

tou may have the right idea

i’m gonna give it a couple more chances but upon first try it didn’t show up in open rgb

quite annoying it’s so bothersome

[oak vector]

Also I thought that was a lil target logo on the tub but I think it’s a maple leaf now

[pure garnet]

you need the trident z app twin

it's old as fart but works fine

[merry stirrup]

they also hit 47c so far with the heat spreaders on and a fan

[pure garnet]

https://www.gskill.com/download/1502180912/1551690847/Trident-Z--Trident-Z5--Ripjaws-M5-RGB-Family

[merry stirrup]

why can’t i just control it normally

[merry stirrup]

not cool

[pure garnet]

idk this is the only rgb software i have installed

[merry stirrup]

can i set hw profiles

[pure garnet]

no it's ram

it's a tiny app that uses 3mb of memory you'll be okay

[merry stirrup]

i don’t want to keep installing it on my oses just cause my ram is lighting up

[pure garnet]

the ui of 1812

[merry stirrup]

these dimms might be defaced quickly

[pure garnet]

does any of your hardware have a warranty

[merry stirrup]

technically no but really yes with the board and cpu

[pure garnet]

or do you just take it out of the box and blow it up

[merry stirrup]

that is typically the plan

why’s it matter to you

[pure garnet]

curious

[merry stirrup]

i buy most of my hw just to oc it

i could’ve stopped buying computers for gaming at the 11700k

[oak vector]

11700k my beloved

[merry stirrup]

that’s why amd is almost never in my picks

i’ve had one amd cpu in my daily and i hated it so much that i sold it for a 20$ loss with the board and bought a 13900KS

once oc is phased out entirely idk if i’ll be buying pcs much anymore

[steel stream]

7900X3D

[merry stirrup]

yeah it sucked

[oak vector]

I feel like the more I’ve spent on my setup, the less I actually game or make full use of it

[merry stirrup]

it is a massive waste of money but so is everyone else’s hobby so leave a floppa be

[steel stream]

yeah hold on one second

[pure garnet]

what's an acceptable deviation in vt3 passes

granted i am also using the pc rn

[steel stream]

Like bro what

[pure garnet]

these are the people with 9600x chips

the 265k can't game!! they shout about a cpu that performs about the same

[low sorrel]

I mean im still going to buy am5

better value and im cheap

[merry stirrup]

no more than .1

[pure garnet]

im gonna assume using the pc messed it up

[merry stirrup]

at least imo. on ryzen chips maybe more is allowed cause they change freq too much

[pure garnet]

afk i was getting 1.21 consistently

[merry stirrup]

yeah

[pure garnet]

then i started using it and it dropped to 1.11ish and stay around that

low of 1.09 or something but i was using it

[merry stirrup]

good scores do you have clocks changed on p/e?

[pure garnet]

nope

intel defaults 34ngu,34d2d

[merry stirrup]

no way d2d does that much that’s wild lol

i’m getting 1.04 on stock besides men

[pure garnet]

the default d2d is 21

so i have it clocked a lot higher

[pure garnet]

that’s why they made 200s boost bro

it’s like up to 30% in games iirc

[odd sable]

wait, you like e-cores?

[pure garnet]

why would we not like them

[shell void]

more like 5% xd

[pure garnet]

up to bro

[odd sable]

C2C latency issues

ive had to deal with that being a problem w/ cache line locks, and still enabling e-cores is a net perf loss vs p-core only

only like 4% loss now, rather than over 50%, but still, net loss

[shell void]

id rather have 24 big cores, but 8 big cores and 16 little cores is cooler than 8 big cores and 0 little cores

[odd sable]

or or, 16 big

[steel stream]

I love E cores

[shell void]

thats cheating because it's a separate die

[pure garnet]

you mean 8+8?

gotta walk through the pcie fabric to use em

[steel stream]

Also I was not comparing Core designs but packaging techniques, but E cores are still cool

[shell void]

fr talkin about core to core latency when your other 8 cores are in a different neighborhood

[tropic idol]

is this a good deal for my gf to play sims, minecraft, fortnite etc on Ryz 7 1700/16GB DDR4/240GB SSD+1TB HDD/RX 570 8GB, im aware of the age of the components but the ehole rig fully built and working is 165 BUCKS on FB MARKETPLACE

[odd sable]

AFAIK, AMD's 8+8 wasn't effected in the same way intel's 8+16 was

[pure garnet]

no they just disable half the cpu in games instead

[odd sable]

because the scheduler kept the threads on the same CCX

[wraith steeple]

Maaaaaaan modern computing is

[steel stream]

lemme just let my CPU talk to other parts of itself through the PCB

[pure garnet]

buying my $700 cpu that requires xbox game bar to understand when to shut half of it off

[verbal obsidian]

well i raised my vddq 5mv and that seems to have done it

[pure garnet]

masterful gambit by amd

[odd sable]

also, i say C2C, but its whatever the fuck was going on with the cache line locks

[brisk jolt]

30% divided by like 10

[shell void]

in 99% of cases the best performance config for ADL & RPL is all cores enabled, but HT disabled

[pure garnet]

if the 1 edge case works for intel it works for me

[shell void]

for games specifically

[odd sable]

i got 2.4x the FPS out of it just by reducing the cache line locks in a queue, for RPL and ARL (unsure for ADL)

idk how the fuck the CPU managed to stall for that much time, but it did

and it was very repeatable too

[shell void]

that’s goofy

[odd sable]

granted, that is specific to the game i work on, but meh

[low sorrel]

micheal how many damn swiftplays do you play

[shell void]

i mainly play swift play

unrated is a snooze fest and comp is annoying

[pure garnet]

first to 5 is honestly a fun pace

if you hate your teammates you're not trapped forever

[shell void]

i think it’d be nice if it was first to 7 but 5 is okay

[low sorrel]

he's 5 stacking swiftplays

[odd sable]

also, we've had 3 (i think, might be more) 13th/14th gen CPUs eat themselves in the last week!

[shell void]

i believe it

they’re kamikaze bombers on stock settings

[pure garnet]

is it illegal to set a voltage cap in your workplace

[odd sable]

out of 6... 2 of which were already replaced, so 3/4 unreplaced ones ate themselves

[pure garnet]

buy 14900k and run it in 1.5v kaboom mode

meta setup

[odd sable]

its 14900k CPUs in an HP box, IT manages it

[wraith steeple]

I've been messing around with retro ewaste lately

More entertaining TBH

[pure garnet]

did hp even bother shipping new microcode

[merry stirrup]

the issue is that the new microcodes are as bad if not worse

1.53 vcore deadass

[odd sable]

afaik, yes, and they are updated, but they still eat themselves

[shell void]

they can’t fix the problem without limiting clocks which will make people furious

[merry stirrup]

under a real load

[merry stirrup]

no i just don’t think they can produce a working stock profile

[low sorrel]

@shell void do i win this

[odd sable]

"real load" i assume you mean heavy single core load?

[merry stirrup]

no

like, cinebench bro

[pure garnet]

[shell void]

there’s no way to make a 1.5vid 6ghz boost not kill the cpu :p

[brisk jolt]

i hope the chamber wakes up and becomes demon1 and taps all of you in the head

[shell void]

they ego clocked them and it’s joever

[odd sable]

really? i thought all-core loads would cause clocks (and voltage) to drop as compared to single?

[merry stirrup]

no, stock doesn’t allow vdroop to happen

you’re always at what vid is requesting

cinebench on my 13900Ks on intel settings was 1.45 something volts

[odd sable]

if all-core does it, that explains why my team (engine) has had so many die, constantly recompiling the game

[low sorrel]

fuck this guy

[merry stirrup]

vdroop is important

[brisk jolt]

just parry it

https://tenor.com/view/renoir-expedition-33-gif-10783623067192732951

[odd sable]

skill issue

[brisk jolt]

what next you gonna be the typical valorant player and type “gay” in all chat?

[low sorrel]

no you get banned for that

[pure garnet]

works fr

[brisk jolt]

you dont get banned for saying gay in valorant

[merry stirrup]

1.1 ac/dc loadline let’s go

[low sorrel]

i saw a guy get banned for saying gay

[brisk jolt]

oh wow good guy amd putting rdna1 and 2 onto life support drivers now

[merry stirrup]

they did similar to fury and r9 300

[toxic grotto]

is valorant riot?

[merry stirrup]

those cards were fine when they were killed i don’t understand why they’d do that

[wraith steeple]

We're having a gay ol' time

[toxic grotto]

the gay ol' opry

[merry stirrup]

gotta face a zip to go to bed at night

[odd sable]

not enough driver devs to keep up

and just hiring more isn't an immediate solution either

[merry stirrup]

yeah 3 guys in the basement of lisa’s house isn’t doing so good is it

[odd sable]

hiring more now might keep RDNA3/4 alive longer, but theres no helping RDNA1/2 now

[merry stirrup]

i can’t wait for the 7800xt to leave support next year

sorry guys it doesn’t have good ai capabilities it’s gotta go yknow it’s the future and all

[brisk jolt]

RDNA2 is already buried deep beneath the ground in terms of playing the latest releases without crapping themselves with the mandatory RT

[odd sable]

we dont have mandatory RT

[merry stirrup]

the top 100 games on steam are not that

[brisk jolt]

also getting buried by 9060XT

[odd sable]

i mean, fuck, my workstation has a 3070...

[brisk jolt]

as in latest releases that may*

[merry stirrup]

what people are playing do not care for rt

it’s a stupid play

it’s their own fault for trying to claim it had rt support in the first place

[odd sable]

i mean, its not like Turing is much better

[low sorrel]

war thunder is the first game on steam with rt

[brisk jolt]

it has RT support

just at like a 90% fps cut xd

[low sorrel]

number 25

[merry stirrup]

turing has dlss which immediately makes it better lol

[steel stream]

damn, I need to find movies mastered in 4000 nits now

[odd sable]

sorry, i dont consider turning the resolution down to be a reasonable thing to do

4k native or nothing

[merry stirrup]

whatever looks and feels playable is playable

[odd sable]

also, i mostly have that mentality because its not helpful when benchmarking to try and improve perf

like, i need to see how things actually perform

[brisk jolt]

the tech is advancing too fast for AMD frfr

[odd sable]

not whatever bandaid is slapped on top

well i set twr, trfc2, and tfaw by hand then let the ocf pick subtimings

[merry stirrup]

okay

[pure garnet]

xmp primaries only

i do have better cores than you though

your imc is better than mine to balance it out

[merry stirrup]

but we’re at stock settings

i shouldn’t be -20% with way faster mem and higher clocks everywhere else

[pure garnet]

if my cores need less vid maybe they're holding better clocks is my only guess

[merry stirrup]

what’s effective clock?

[pure garnet]

idk i'll look later im in raid for another hour

[merry stirrup]

i’m getting like 4550 on my e cores and 5170 on p in yc

[merry stirrup]

okie

[pure garnet]

are you on the stripped os

i'm just rocking my regular ltsc install with my crap open

[merry stirrup]

yes, w10, which i considered could be it idk

it might just be my version of ycruncher

whatever happened something in your config fixed it i already know

cpu is drawing 20w more

i didn’t even do anything

[pure garnet]

game open so result will suck but

[merry stirrup]

so not different than mine

[pure garnet]

i have a video game open tho twin

[merry stirrup]

ig

[pure garnet]

still getting 60fps with vt3 running

this chip is kinda cool

[merry stirrup]

lmao

[pure garnet]

yeah that's horrid

but i have a game open so

[merry stirrup]

yeah

[pure garnet]

does memory/thread matter with that bench

because i do have more of that per thread

[merry stirrup]

oh you’re so right

i’d think more memory a thread would be slower though

well no

cause it’s bits per second

you may be on to something

okay well

i closed hwinfo and my score went up a lot

wat

[pure garnet]

i think i had hwinfo open

[pure garnet]

idk i'll run it with nothing open later

[merry stirrup]

i’m so lost man

[pure garnet]

like i'll close all my background stuff

[merry stirrup]

yeah

ty for helping a flopper

[pure garnet]

nvm raid just ended

i guess i'll run it now 😭

[merry stirrup]

😭💀

is your core input voltage 1.52 by default?

[pure garnet]

yeah

[merry stirrup]

okay word mines lower

i’m just going to mess with the loadline for it

[pure garnet]

i mean it flucates

1.512 was my lowest iirc

[merry stirrup]

yeah but mines like lower

like in the 1.4s iirc

[pure garnet]

okay nothing running but yc now

[merry stirrup]

okie

see you in 2 minutes

maybe specify your ycruncher to take 32gb ram instead of 48? or whayever gets to similar mem/thread, too

[pure garnet]

1.21 * 10^10

[merry stirrup]

crazy

that’s like good, almost as good as the 13900ks config

maybe i just need to reinstall my bench os 😭

i’m going to w11

[pure garnet]

same result 2nd iteration

[merry stirrup]

okay i’m on w11

1.22GB/thread

[pure garnet]

trying same gb per thread as u rn

[merry stirrup]

that’s why i specified for u

[pure garnet]

oh so you got win 10 scheduler'd then

[merry stirrup]

i think so

let’s see if my test speed is higher

it is

1.11

nothing open but my os is terrible and i’m at the same settings as u

i have full fat w11

so disparity makes sense now

[pure garnet]

1.02 10^10 at same mem/thread

[merry stirrup]

thanks kyo i was so worried

[pure garnet]

so yeah h24m just beating u on capacity

[merry stirrup]

i’m going to keep doing my testing on w10 but with the knowledge that it’s slower there

i don’t think wattage was any different so whatever

[brisk jolt]

hi on w11

[vale cosmos]

how might a 720p 30fps 2 hour long video take up 100gb?!

[pure garnet]

stupid bitrate

bad encode

[vale cosmos]

like it wasn't? encoded, but i still fail to see what all the data even is

[merry stirrup]

kyoko i found the setting to make our boards magically gain 2 dimm slots

what could this even mean

[pure garnet]

force single rank is kinda cool

[dapper junco]

well do you record that?

[merry stirrup]

screw your capacity

gonna get my new wheel setup from best buy™

[median wing]

how do you do that writing ones and zeros to erase a drive for a disk

on win10

[fleet marsh]

So im trying to figure out if i should get a 5070 ti or a 9070 xt now or wait a little longer for blackfriday ? or is it even worth waiting ? if i remember last years Black friday kinda sucked for Gpu's

[edgy laurel]

the age old question. buy or wait

[fleet marsh]

indeed

[brisk jolt]

all these black friday or whatever deals almost never apply to nvidia cards

and afaik for US ppl the deals only brought 9070xt to msrp

[fleet marsh]

i mean... i got a Microcenter close to me. they got a 9070 xt for 599. plus my 6800 trade in. i think they said like 150 or so in value. dk if i should do that and trade or sell and try to get 250

[edgy laurel]

and then you wouldn't have an Nvidia card. shame

[fleet marsh]

im for what ever is good lol. at a good price.

[brisk jolt]

the AMD skepticism stock has once again risen

[fleet marsh]

if what i read is true. they are ending support for my 6800 in jan ?

or day 1 support sorry

[edgy laurel]

day 1 support for game optimizations

[fleet marsh]

hmm... i may just do the 5070 ti on newegg for 700 and they offered 250 for my gpu lol. seems like the better deal to just pay 500 plus tax

[alpine creek]

good gpu pairing for the intel core ultra 5 245k?

[edgy laurel]

5090

[fleet marsh]

my rx 6800 for 500......

[alpine creek]

would the 5070/ 9070 be suitable?

[edgy laurel]

I don't know, what do you mean by suitable? Buy the best you can afford.
