[wraith steeple]

If only more brands offered dummy kits

[edgy laurel]

everyone should offer dummy kits

[hoary hatch]

Oh damn
The Asus BTF GPU system would have worked well here, but, that is shockingly hidden for a cable

[harsh sail]

What cost

[edgy laurel]

they clearly planned this out well

[edgy laurel]

i'm not doing that math for you, sorry.

[hoary hatch]

I want more GPUs with alternative cable locations

[harsh sail]

Bro didn’t even do it for himself
So you don’t know how much you dropped? 😂

[wraith steeple]

That Modding Café block is easily in the $200s USD

[hoary hatch]

Alternative = not the front middle

[edgy laurel]

you aren't really reading what we're saying here if you think this was my build

[hoary hatch]

It was like 40° this morning and I'm still freezing from the walk through my office parking lot

[edgy laurel]

i'd love it to be 40. it was 23 this morning

[pure garnet]

motherboards should only have 2 slots

[hoary hatch]

My bones feel cold

[wraith steeple]

It's built on top of a Bitspower CPU block IIRC

Or rather built around it

[brisk jolt]

https://videocardz.com/newz/asus-geforce-rtx-5090-proart-appears-with-a-founders-edition-style-cooler

icl

it looks like shit

[topaz veldt]

Those are cool blocks - has anyone done any flow measurements on them?

[edgy laurel]

I wouldn't really know. Sure looks cool though when everything else matches

[hoary hatch]

It looks fine for a 5060 or 5070

[wraith steeple]

I see Bitspower plugs pre-installed in the unboxing so yeah definitely built around BP

[hoary hatch]

For a GB203/202? Gimme triple axial proart

[wraith steeple]

Which makes sense since Bitspower does supply Modding Café in a lot of their build projects

[edgy laurel]

i haven't looked too deeply but I assuming its 2x in and 2x out?

[wraith steeple]

Yes

[brisk jolt]

it looks weird without an X in the middle for me

[edgy laurel]

so essentially combining the ID of two of those tubes

[brisk jolt]

with the middle being flat i’d assume its a 5060/5070 2 slot card

[fringe vigil]

My C5 being sent away

I miss it so much

[edgy laurel]

even Dell OEM 5090's are 3 fan

[hoary hatch]

Why

[fringe vigil]

You have tatoos?

[edgy laurel]

sharp as a tack, jorj

[oak vector]

To be fair
I didn’t know either lol

[pure garnet]

mac has tattoos?

[hoary hatch]

Amusing how they made a competent cooler, but still managed "OEM as heck" with the shroud aesthetic

[steel stream]

wow your torrent looks weird

[fringe vigil]

Hold on

You got a 5090 now??

[edgy laurel]

wireless headset and pebbles too

[topaz veldt]

my face is tattood

[oak vector]

I think jorj and I have a combined iq of about 4

[topaz veldt]

[steel stream]

NVIDIA tat on the forehead?

[topaz veldt]

no, AMD

[fringe vigil]

What happened to 6090 waiting room

[oak vector]

Ykw that’s better than 4 I’ll take that

[steel stream]

https://tenor.com/view/wait-a-minute-who-are-you-kazoo-kid-funny-gif-16933963

[edgy laurel]

[steel stream]

Pebbles :(

[oak vector]

Why thank you discord

[pure garnet]

the 6090 can’t compete with the vega 619716393619

[topaz veldt]

Ok nerds hit me with most interesting CES stuff

[steel stream]

NVIDIA on at 3PM i think

Intel at 7:30

[topaz veldt]

EST?

[steel stream]

yeah

[hoary hatch]

RGB stripe QD-OLED

Come on 5nail that's the best news

[pure garnet]

amd in between i think

[edgy laurel]

Sandisk dropping WD branding. You now have a Sandisk Optimus Pro GX 8100

[steel stream]

I thought AMD was last

[topaz veldt]

The hell I do, sir

[pure garnet]

maybe

[oak vector]

Nvidia on at 8 am for me lmao

Intel at 11am
Amd at 1:30pm

[turbid locust]

https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-dlss-4-5-to-feature-2nd-gen-transformer-model-and-dynamic-6x-frame-generation Nvidia what the fuck lol

[edgy laurel]

mac fyi we've already seen all the videocardz articles this morning lol

[turbid locust]

I just woke up so it doesn’t count

[edgy laurel]

akn the goat with that lol

[turbid locust]

If I did not see it, it did not happen

[edgy laurel]

I can't argue with the logic

[turbid locust]

but who tf is turning on 6x

[hoary hatch]

How about 10x

[turbid locust]

nobody uses 4x lmao

[edgy laurel]

the key is dynamic

[hoary hatch]

Nvidia marketing team does

5070 = 4090 duh

[edgy laurel]

set your desired framerate and let mfg take the wheel

its a good and needed addition to mfg

its working in the background adjusting things to keep you at your max/desired framerate is nice

[tepid mason]

My fractal north looks so grey 😭

[turbid locust]

I didn’t read that hard

[steel stream]

I can see it useful for those like 700Hz+ monitors I guess

[turbid locust]

I mean, isn’t that basically what it does if 2x doesn’t get you all the way there, so you enable 3x with a framerate cap?

[oak vector]

[turbid locust]

There was like one game I saw where 3x was usable and that was the most recent Doom game

@shell void what’s the CES schedule again today? lol

[oak vector]

@turbid locust tada

[steel stream]

I clicked the wrong copy

[topaz veldt]

You know who uses 6x MFG?

[turbid locust]

I could’ve sworn I saw something saying Nvidia started at 1p

[steel stream]

1080p users

[shell void]

Nvidia at 4:00 PM
Intel at 7:00 PM
AMD at 9:30 PM

[turbid locust]

Ah 1p PST

fuckin west coasters god damn it

[steel stream]

it's in Vegas

[hoary hatch]

Frame chasers 😎

[hoary hatch]

Vegas
Vega
Radeon Vega
🤔🤔🤔

[topaz veldt]

AMD is going to announce a 9030 XT

[steel stream]

and we will all praise it's greatness

[topaz veldt]

Not worth it - I won't spend more than $269 on a GPU

[hoary hatch]

9090 GRE GRE GRE (it's a larger die cut down to 9060 levels with 6gb vram)

[topaz veldt]

the new today is amazing

just leaving it all right there

[fickle narwhal]

Wait there’s a 9090?

[plush smelt]

I updated the bios, I uninstalled the drivers and resintalled them, I turned on PBO, I have SAM on too, and I still get horrible 1% lows SO WHAT THE FUCK am I supposed to do now

is my CPU just too weak in comparison to my GPU? ryzen 7 7700, RX 9070 XT

[edgy laurel]

stop looking at stats and play the game

[plush smelt]

it's laggy

[edgy laurel]

hardware combo is fine, perfectly matched.

[pure garnet]

turn off the fps counter and you won’t notice

[late marsh]

What's the game

[plush smelt]

where winds meet

[edgy laurel]

classic ue5

[plush smelt]

and I just hit 0 fps for a second the reading must be wrong

[edgy laurel]

we told you 1000x to uninstall rtss and just use the amd overlay

[shell void]

in this specific instance yes it appears that your CPU is the limiting factor because your GPU isn't busy

[plush smelt]

it's fluctuating heavily

[vestal granite]

are we really so far gone that we're getting CES announcements for AIB cards a decade after the card was released

[edgy laurel]

its at 100% load, that 43 is probably vram util?

[plush smelt]

no the Util is at 100, VRAM only 43

[shell void]

oh i only looked at the 43

[pure garnet]

that overlay is horrible btw

[edgy laurel]

i know, thats what I said

[shell void]

what a weird format

[plush smelt]

yeah my bad I realized after I sent it

[edgy laurel]

default rtss that no one bothers to change

[pure garnet]

mine doesn’t look like that

[vestal granite]

but thats what all of the benchSlop™ channels use!

[shell void]

if your gpu is maxed, and the game doesnt have reflex or antilag implemented then you might be able to improve your lows by setting a FPS cap, and disabling the resource monitoring

[shell void]

100% gpu busy isn't ideal for latency and frame pacing

[vestal granite]

sorry chat had to leave for a second, unrelated, anyways yeah thats all benchSlop® content quite frankly

[edgy laurel]

what refresh rate is your display? @plush smelt

[plush smelt]

180

[steel stream]

I have to know what performance I get in games with a hyper speicifc combo

[edgy laurel]

So set a 172fps framerate cap in either adrenaline or RTSS

[pure garnet]

if i can’t tell how much performance the 7800x3d and 660ti get am i really a gamer

[plush smelt]

now it's fine.... sometimes it hits higher FPS

[plush smelt]

where do I frame cap in Adernaline I tried looking for it

[steel stream]

not a true gamer

[pure garnet]

fake gamer, fake driver, it’s so over for me this week

[edgy laurel]

who has adrenaline in front of them

[pure garnet]

just do it in rtss

none of us use amd cards

[edgy laurel]

if you insist on keeping rtss, just do it there (its supposed to be the best anyway)

plus side, you'll make less heat

[plush smelt]

I tried capping it to 90, well right now it's fine....

yeah it's normal now, I don't know why only at the start of launching the game I would have my FPS fluctuate heavily from 200 fps to 100

it doesn't feel like it tho so might be just readings issue

[edgy laurel]

172fps should be the cap, keeping you inside the VRR range and preventing overshoot

[plush smelt]

ok

[pure garnet]

the reading is probably accurate you’re just discovering that at a certain point it won’t get super noticeable

[livid flame]

Wit adrenaline you have to enable on a per game basis by selecting enable Radeon chill to cap ingame in adrenaline iirc

[plush smelt]

yeah nvm I will just use riva then

[livid flame]

I dunno if you can global that now

[plush smelt]

anything here I am recommended to keep on?

[livid flame]

I’ve never had to use it

[edgy laurel]

from what I recall with my time in adrenaline, there is a dedicated global cap section but Chill is completely different

[livid flame]

I don’t remember seeing a global cap but chill. I’m not at home atm to check

[edgy laurel]

Chill is more of a dynamic thing and frankly kinda stupid. good for laptops

yeah and I swapped my AMD GPU machine to linux awhile back so I haven't touched it

[graceful marten]

People of tech tips, my friend just got a new pc and for some reason it keeps restarting by itself a lot and while it does that it goes into recovery mode sometimes. The thing is that the rgb lights are still on while it restarts, someone know the issue? I'm suspecting a bad PSU but I am no expert in any way

[edgy laurel]

No, no one can just say the issue without extensive troubleshooting.

But thats more suited to #1027757333117415424

[graceful marten]

hmmm alright

[topaz veldt]

@low sorrel Good ole free loadout

[graceful marten]

Where will it show if its a log entry

Okay thanks

[edgy laurel]

sigh this is not the right channel for this but if the system is rebooting out of the blue its not going give you anything useful in event viewer. random reboots are most typically hardware instability and you're not going to get anything useful out of windows for that.

overclocks, undervolts.. usually to blame.

@topaz veldt this is still so upsetting

[graceful marten]

Alright

[turbid locust]

I swear half these “issues” would be resolved if people would just turn off the fps counter

[pure garnet]

no man it’s a permanent fixture of my gaming setup

[craggy mist]

fire

[arctic bronze]

Lmao true, steams updated fps counter is hella laggy

I was losing about 30% of my fps bc of it

[craggy mist]

dang

[arctic bronze]

Btw, i run a 7800x3d and a 4080

[edgy laurel]

I've not seen that, but I don't use it often

[arctic bronze]

So its not weak hardware

[turbid locust]

I have a simple one for those “holy shit this game runs bad” moments but I’m not freaking out when my fps dips to 130 against my 138fps cap

[devout ridge]

twins (but i have a 4080S)

[arctic bronze]

I was playing BAR with it and it was ass

[edgy laurel]

huh

[arctic bronze]

I was dropping from 500 fps to 40fps

For BAR

[edgy laurel]

I don't know what BAR is but thats a big problem.

and the steam overlay sure doesn't cause it

[arctic bronze]

Other games was like 30% average fps loss

[arctic bronze]

It did, when i turned it off, it fixed

[pure garnet]

7800x3d? legacy hardware discussion wtf

[craggy mist]

what’s BAR

[arctic bronze]

BAR (Beyond all reason) is an rts game

[craggy mist]

oh

[arctic bronze]

https://www.beyondallreason.info/

Free too

[turbid locust]

Are you on 540hz or something

[pure garnet]

nah he just likes the smell of 300w in the morning

[arctic bronze]

165 but the lag was awful

[turbid locust]

So you’re just arbitrarily creating fluctuations by running uncapped lmao

[pure garnet]

i cap my fps but i don’t use vrr

[arctic bronze]

Nothing wrong with that, the issue was valves updated fps counter

[turbid locust]

Reflex + VRR + Gsync + global cap my goat

[arctic bronze]

Went back to the og one and it fixed

[edgy laurel]

i got it mac https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/1lokih2/putting_misconceptions_about_optimal_fps_caps/

[steel stream]

138 FPS my beloved

[turbid locust]

I mean, there is something wrong with it, but I couldn’t be fucked trying to explain

All I’m saying is the days of running 7,000,000 fps cause “input lag” are gone and have been for a long time

[edgy laurel]

i'm over here waiving my 116fps flag

[arctic bronze]

I run uncapped just bc lol

[edgy laurel]

silly, and unnecessary. excess heat and fan noise for no reason

nothing is gained

[craggy mist]

fps!

[turbid locust]

The number in the corner of your screen goes up that’s about it

[edgy laurel]

if you have the mentality of a 14y/o, yeah, sure. but it doesn't actually improve anything

[devout ridge]

“but but, newer frames!” yeah like you can tell

[turbid locust]

Everything else about it is objectively worse lmao

[devout ridge]

the people that think they can see 165 vs 200 fps on a 165hz monitor are laughable

[edgy laurel]

its not even about that

[steel stream]

We could have a 158 cap this year...

[edgy laurel]

its about improving input latency which is what you "feel" when you play

[turbid locust]

The ONLY game I prefer uncapped on is CS2 but that’s cause the game is ass. That game has 30ms input lag built into the engine lmao.

[devout ridge]

like actually built in, or just a product of a shit engine

[pure garnet]

if there was an option to limit the vrr refresh rate i’d try it but for now i just cap to something reasonable

[turbid locust]

shit engine

[edgy laurel]

thats neat but i dunno about "we". I've giving the ole' girl a few more years

[pure garnet]

source inputs got faster at higher fps iirc

[arctic bronze]

It doesn't bother me lol

[turbid locust]

Yeah I can’t justify the upgrade unless it’s 240hz or higher res

[edgy laurel]

don't sunk cost fallacy this, we're trying to help!

[pure garnet]

144 -> 165 on a $1500 tv seems silly

[steel stream]

hopefully we get 240Hz in the next 3 years

[arctic bronze]

Lmao

[pure garnet]

if i could have a 100-160 vrr range that’d be cool

[turbid locust]

5K240 tandem please

[pure garnet]

but i never want my display to be 60hz

[arctic bronze]

8k 240

[edgy laurel]

240hz or a fully new gen panel

[turbid locust]

Workable

[craggy mist]

16k 1080hz when

[steel stream]

next 3 years i bet for both

maybe next 5

[arctic bronze]

Prob never

[topaz veldt]

5K 240 hz 32" pls

[edgy laurel]

frankly, even at 42 i think 4K is still plenty sharp. the glassy gloss coating helps a ton

[craggy mist]

hopefully

[turbid locust]

It’s my PPI limit

[arctic bronze]

Make it oled and it would be bliss

[wraith steeple]

5K2K has me acting up NGL

[turbid locust]

I would prefer sharper

[arctic bronze]

4k 16in

[pure garnet]

the stuff i like about 4k would largely go away at 42” i think

[turbid locust]

Too gimmicky for me. I don’t want to have to compromise

[edgy laurel]

what is the ppi of my phone.. one moment

[pure garnet]

27” is a bit small but the ppi is amazing

[steel stream]

around 218 I think

[pure garnet]

so i think 32” 4k/5k is my endgame

[steel stream]

it's in the 200s

[arctic bronze]

My s24 ultra has 505ppi

[shell void]

iphones are like 450ppi

[steel stream]

bro I am just lying wow

I am quite uneducated

[shell void]

i dont really care about ppi

[arctic bronze]

Bro dont care about peepee eye

[shell void]

42" 4K doesnt look meaningfully worse than 27" 4K to me because i can adjust viewing distance

i just want 5K OLED

[edgy laurel]

there is a threshold for desk use though

minimum, i mean

[shell void]

yeah i tried using 43" on my 32" desk in the past and it sucked

my 36" desk that i have now is the bare minimum

id like to have a 42" deep desk like Mac, but im downsizing displays soon anyway

[steel stream]

I love having a desk that is almost as big as my bed

[brisk jolt]

So when’s nvidia in hours from now.. I need a timezone context

[steel stream]

it's awesome

[steel stream]

3 hours and 20 minutes

[edgy laurel]

i think my desk is only 31.5"

[brisk jolt]

oh great 5am

[shell void]

i can understand why you dont like using scaling then

youre sitting close

[pure garnet]

i can’t try windows on my tv because it’s bgr

so the text would look shit anyway

[shell void]

my preference after much experimentation is for the display diagonal measurement and desk depth to be the same

42" on 42" deep desk, 32" on 32" deep desk etc

[edgy laurel]

ugh now there are sub variants?

[steel stream]

C series gimped again

[edgy laurel]

C6H

[steel stream]

awesome that they are using H too, S95H + C6H

[pure garnet]

tcl oled will save me

[edgy laurel]

C6 and C6H. are there any others?

[steel stream]

https://youtu.be/MiUHjLxm3V0 side note but dope

[shell void]

G6 - traditional flagship
W6 - same panel as G6 but thinner design
C6H - 77" and 83" only, neutered G6 Tandem panel
C6 - midrange
B6 - low end

[steel stream]

ok C6 is 165Hz

[steel stream]

I think it's a G5 panel for the C6H, just going off the article screenshot you posted

[shell void]

yeah G5, C6H, G6, and W6 all use the same panel

theyre just driving it harder in G6/W6

[steel stream]

ohh ok

[shell void]

if the 77" C6H goes down in price eventually then maybe thatll be nice

[steel stream]

one bajillion dollars

I am curious as to what the 3.9X brighter is in reference to

[arctic bronze]

I want a 99% discount

[steel stream]

which model, I would assume B series, 5 or 4

[topaz veldt]

I wish cool shit was out

[arctic bronze]

Just throw it in the fridge for a bit

[steel stream]

oh michael did you see the ROG AR glasses

not a short throw projector so I am no longer interested

[brisk jolt]

Im using myself as a measurement for a new desk and I can surely say, 180cm barely fits

[steel stream]

Ok I need context ASAP

[arctic bronze]

5ft 9

[brisk jolt]

So Im looking to get a new desk, and I need to know what length I could possible get

im like 180cm, and accounting for some headroom being the legs, it should be viable

[topaz veldt]

are you laying down as a unit of measure?

[brisk jolt]

y e s

[steel stream]

very accurate unit of measurement

[shell void]

yeah i wonder how much those will cost

[pure garnet]

@turbid locust i looked at my tires to entertain the guy from yesterday and the date code isn’t in the side the tires face

[steel stream]

guess the world may never know

[shell void]

oh thank God

so yeah this is the best monitor of 2026

glossy 4K240 RGB W-OLED with DP80

all the color purity benefits of qd-oled without the washout cope

[steel stream]

27" 🥀

[edgy laurel]

so what you're saying is, overclocking brightness is a possibility

[fickle narwhal]

I just wish the 1440p/ 5k monitor had released before I got the 1440p oled I have

[steel stream]

I am going to send 120V right to my G5

you should do the same for your C2

[edgy laurel]

that'll do it

[steel stream]

it'll be real bright

for a few seconds

[edgy laurel]

face melting (in more ways than one)

[steel stream]

gotta find a way to trigger it rright as a CS2 flashbang goes off

[shell void]

okay ill be buying that PG27UCWM to play with then

i dont like 27" but that's the closest thing to perfect that we have so far

[edgy laurel]

I was playing Diablo last night in the dark. The new Paladin class has this abilty that puts this aura down on the ground thats SO bright. I was literally fully squinting just to see the screen

[steel stream]

do we know anything about peak brightness yet

[shell void]

250 fullscreen, 500 10% window, 1000 1.5% window

it's basically the same brightness as the last gen MLA W-OLED monitors

[random flame]

H m m m m . . .

[steel stream]

ok not bad

[shell void]

the 32" RGWB panel will be brighter

[low sorrel]

Which one is that

[shell void]

but you also get worse text, worse color volume, grey and color banding, and flickering/macroblocking in dark scenes because of the white subpixel

those problems wont exist on this new RGB panel

[steel stream]

I am very interested in seeing the color volume differences

[edgy laurel]

wait people are dealign with macroblocking on current gen displays? what on earth

that would be unacceptable

[shell void]

poor grey uniformity and macroblocking or banding in dark scenes isnt uncommon with woled monitors

[random flame]

Had an unusual thought about a pretty old tech standard that hardly exists general use cases being the next thing to be worth considering aaanndd yes, it's something to do with ram.

[strange ginkgo]

i would probably use a low brightness even if i had a super bright monitor to increase the lifespan

[shell void]

guys complain about in the monitor discord

people are also unhappy with the permanent dithering that happens on G5 which LG implemented to try to fix banding and blocking problems

[fickle narwhal]

If only there existed a country where this isn’t illegal

[shell void]

monitors dont have this

which is why their problems are more obvious

[random flame]

Specifically one that hasn't been used with standard ICs in a while...
And I'm pretty sure I told Floppa once about it too.

[shell void]

@turbid locust

[topaz veldt]

I already ordered on e

[wraith steeple]

I see terrible banding only in the nvidia app lol

the shade of grey they use is terrible

watch their bins also get fucked at 6200

[proven cairn]

[pure garnet]

i mean it’s the same tile so probably

[topaz veldt]

I know - and I agree

I wanted 9950X3D2 for brags but knowing the benefit is almost zero

[brisk jolt]

im currently on a 5.75ghz 9800x3d so

[fickle narwhal]

I want 9950x2 with 32 cores

[steel stream]

We will go up to 24 core max next gen

for AMD at least

[wraith steeple]

[fickle narwhal]

Hopefully more lanes starting to run out of lanes now that every product wants gen 5

[steel stream]

idk anything about AMD lane count for the future

[fickle narwhal]

Rip

[steel stream]

Intel NVL will go up to 52 cores, and iirc should have an increased number of lanes

[fickle narwhal]

What am I missing this CES? So far just a couple of meh refresh CPU chips?

[random flame]

Hey @merry stirrup, I told you a few days ago about 1t-sram, one of the pseudostatic dram types, right?

[steel stream]

we haven't heard anything good yet for CPUs

officially

[topaz veldt]

most appealing is 9850X3D

No new GPU stuff it seems

[steel stream]

just DLSS 4.5

I am all for an updated Transformer model though, that's neat

[topaz veldt]

Yeah software is cool

[shell void]

jensen is keeping sparky’s ancient 4090 alive with dlss 4.5

[steel stream]

mesozoic era GPU

[pure garnet]

what does that make my sisters 2060

[steel stream]

A relic from the Hadean era

[shell void]

more well-supported than the 7900XTX

[craggy mist]

that’s what my old pc got

[shell void]

rtx 2060 users on their way to enable dlss 4.5 transformer model 2 upscaling on their GPU meanwhile the 7900XTX can’t use FSR4 officially

fine wine

[steel stream]

I've got a spare 2060 super I should see how that fares in 4K

[brisk jolt]

LOL

[topaz veldt]

Back when AMD still sucked (3900X or 3950X or whatever) I bought a 2080 Super for one ... it was meh

[pure garnet]

can you try horizon i’m curious on that one

[edgy laurel]

ez money save

[steel stream]

If I remember to do it tomorrow night I will

I got free tickets to some basketball tonight so I am going there

[topaz veldt]

it has been this way for about 1 month or 2 now

[turbid locust]

Isn’t that a higher TDP too

[edgy laurel]

no

9800x3D is also 120w

[turbid locust]

for some reason I thought it was 105W

[edgy laurel]

9700x in beast mode

[turbid locust]

I don’t see how this isn’t just a less efficient 9800X3D lol

[edgy laurel]

I wanna be just like this guy

long way to go

[pure garnet]

that’s all it is

[turbid locust]

If it has better IMC I want it anyway

It can probably be tuned to be just as if not more efficient

[pure garnet]

i mean it’s the same chip so yeah

all you have to do is pbo -400 and it’s a stock 9800x3d

[vagrant cargo]

Ok so whats been announced so far? I see miniled evo from hisense

That looks interesting to me since I do own a hisense tv at the moment ,? Probably might need to upgrade to this year's model though

I doubt were gonna see much in the way of ram at ces?

Also i forgot ces was this week ive been so busy I only just remembered hopefully monitors wise we see a rise in 4k mini led monitors what follow what the 27 inch ones did last year which was the price been decent

Tbh I wouldn't be suprised if aoc or msi or ktc reveal a 33 inch mini led 4k monitor

[pure garnet]

why would we see ram at ces

[vagrant cargo]

I stated i doubt we will do

[viral iron]

Just got my 5090!!!

[pure garnet]

ddr5 is almost a decade old standard

[viral iron]

Me unboxing it hehe

[vagrant cargo]

Tbh thats why i say i doubt it however we could see mentions of new ddr hopefully

[vagrant cargo]

[vagrant cargo]

Personally i feel like they should make ram thats just for ai usage but then also have a separate one for just gaming and general stuff

[arctic bronze]

Wdym by that

Ram is ram

[vagrant cargo]

So have specialised ram made for data centres but make generalised ones for gaming and other stuff , similar to hoe gpus have workstations ones and the normal ones

[pure garnet]

we already do, hbm is what datacenters want and uses up more capacity to produce

[arctic bronze]

Thats called HBM

[pure garnet]

that doesn’t help supply crisis at all

[arctic bronze]

What cpu

[topaz veldt]

What are the times again for CES

Since we got that all fucked up earlier

[pure garnet]

gmt-5

[edgy laurel]

Eastern (US) for those of us that can't be bothered to figure out GMT

[vagrant cargo]

Intel Core Ultra 7 265K

[pure garnet]

i was gonna say est but i forgot if we're in edt or est rn

[arctic bronze]

Oh nice

[green marsh]

probably few last ones on the market

[tepid mason]

Ryzen 5 7500x3d and rx 9060xt?

[snow holly]

[edgy laurel]

@low sorrel's setup

[low sorrel]

heyyy

[snow holly]

“My cousins fell off an embankment” ahh build

[vagrant cargo]

Only other things I wanna upgrade soon is my gpu, I was one of the unlucky people whos cable burnt , I have currently the define 7xl but if a case comes out what offers decent airflow , easy of management and some sound proofing I will buy that

[low sorrel]

i have 2 monitors now

[vagrant cargo]

If a case is revealed at ces with no glass panel on side but a giant led screen im buying it

[brisk jolt]

So anyways, I started blasting

idk why discord sent me that far back lmao

[steel stream]

you know that kills you right

[vagrant cargo]

Clean your keyboard

[low sorrel]

tiny ass mouse pad

[vagrant cargo]

Also I just today won a ps5 pro and Nintendo switch 2 i alrdy own a ps5 pro however i did recently order a switch 2 they offered a cahs alt option i got that instead and im gonna use the cash to buy my new ram kit

[brisk jolt]

i love how the 3 messages up there are all to one person ive blocked

all being negative

[vagrant cargo]

The amount of cash offered for the alt could even if I shop smart get me a new case or the stuff I want for my silent keyboard build

Or even ram

Most likely ram

[arctic bronze]

There is a 7500x3d?

[tepid mason]

Yes

20-50 cheaper than the 7600x3d

[late marsh]

Best value per money X3D 7500 is

[arctic bronze]

Its a recent release, thats why idk about it

[hoary hatch]

Is it an actual release

[arctic bronze]

Idk

[vagrant cargo]

Wait what date does nvidias thing start?

Oh nvm tbh I must be really keep poor track of dates alrdy this year good lord

[edgy laurel]

9pm UK time

[brisk jolt]

1 hr 11mins bascically

[vagrant cargo]

Ok wait so no supers at ces so what has nvidia got to reveal? They said something for gamers abd im worried its subscription stuff

Probably gonna reveal price increases

How likely is it nvidia and amd and intel mention creating their own ram?

[pure garnet]

0

[brisk jolt]

rn its dlss 4.5 and dynamic mfg on the table, we just cant stop winning featureset wise

[arctic bronze]

Lmao

[pure garnet]

the only company you even listed with fabs is intel and they're not making nand anymore

[brisk jolt]

4k dlss performance users like @low sorrel just keep winning

[tepid mason]

-infinity

[low sorrel]

wtf is dlss 4.5

[edgy laurel]

addition of an updated transformer model and a dynamic MFG mode

[low sorrel]

yeah yeah im googling

oh pog champ the 3060 supports it

[edgy laurel]

the former, not the latter

[low sorrel]

yeah i know

[edgy laurel]

but yes DLSS-SR is getting even better

[low sorrel]

im not getting enough frames to want frame gen anyways

[brisk jolt]

nvidia finewine while AMD agedmilk

[low sorrel]

will dlss ultra performance be viable now

[brisk jolt]

amd’s fsr4 job being done by 3rd parties instead of them goes hard

[edgy laurel]

I've been meaning to try that

[low sorrel]

honestly might not be terrible at 27" 4k

i cannot tell the difference between performance and native at 4k im ngl

[brisk jolt]

standing still I can tell the difference between them

[steel stream]

try using your glasses

you're not really missing some sort of groundbreaking difference

calibrate HDR, shut the lights off and play the LG honey video on repeat to make yourself feel better

I want the uncompressed versions of these sizzle reels

[shell void]

Asus ROG Swift OLED PG27UCWM my beloved

RGB with normal text and without chromatic aberration or washing out

[edgy laurel]

you can pay for jennifergala source files on the patreon

from this channel https://www.youtube.com/user/jennifergala

i still think this is one of those impressive videos on youtube for HDR https://youtu.be/SiryvrStb8E?si=sF2h6VRlIYFt56K7

[shell void]

you know that you want the Asus ROG Swift OLED PG27UCWM

[edgy laurel]

$1200+ for a 27" monitor is silly

[pure garnet]

for oled i want 32 since it'll be new desk

im the keeping the xg27ugc till i move out or get a job here

[shell void]

i also want 32 but so far theyve only announced the God panel in 27" size

[topaz veldt]

It'll be no different

@slim pebble Its all "text ghosting will no longer be an issue!"

Bro I have no text ghosting issues wtf

[shell void]

i can't wait to finally be able to have the color purity and grey uniformity benefits of qd-oled, but without the magenta washout cope

itll be so satisfying

[pure garnet]

i mean 1440p qd oled was pretty bad text wise

so im glad they're fixing it to be better

[edgy laurel]

its almost like the real world and headlines aren't always aligned

[shell void]

ill happily take the better text, but i agree with snail on it already not being an issue on 2160p panels

im in it for the pure color without magenta/grey washout

qd oled looks bad in my bedroom

[edgy laurel]

5th gen is nice and all but otherwise, nope

[low sorrel]

can someone explain to me when you would want 6x frame gen

[summer raft]

I still use 3rd gen and have 0 issues

[low sorrel]

like i see no usecases

[edgy laurel]

When you're running the new Dynamic mode and for whatever reason you can't hit the target FPS you've preset, it'll automatically move beyond 4x to get there.

[slim pebble]

For the lower end cards I assume, not everyone has $3K to drop on a 5090

[summer raft]

Because why not, if it’s a story game and you have high enough base framerate I see no reason not to

[shell void]

it washes out and turns magenta in my room

[low sorrel]

but the base frame rate

[shell void]

@slim pebble

[edgy laurel]

Nobody (should) be setting static 6x

[summer raft]

Didn’t even know 6x was a thing now

[low sorrel]

https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-dlss-4-5-to-feature-2nd-gen-transformer-model-and-dynamic-6x-frame-generation

[summer raft]

I’ve been so out of the tech loop the last month or so

[edgy laurel]

Everyone is focusing on the 6x but ignoring the Dynamic feature thats actually awesome

[edgy laurel]

this is news as of this morning

[summer raft]

Dynamic feature means way more to me than 6x FG

[edgy laurel]

it reads like there will be a field to just set a desired max FPS and it'll automatically move between (presumably) no FG and 6x to achieve it based on need

which is what MFG should have come with from th estart

[summer raft]

Agreed

[low sorrel]

I don't know man i feel like even at 240fps, dropping down to 40 base frame rate even temporaliy would be weird

[edgy laurel]

I don't think people with 240Hz displays need to worry too much about this

[summer raft]

Should only drop to base framerate if base framerate somehow hits your FPS setting

Which I don’t see happening but

[edgy laurel]

And just because 6x exists as an option doesn't mean you have to hard set it to it. this is why the option to set a desired framerate and let it handle it is best

[shell void]

there are 750-1080Hz displays coming out in 2026, that's moreso what 6X FG is for

[summer raft]

Dropping from 5x to 3x will be nice

[slim pebble]

Ouch, I’ve never seen this. Now I need to try it

[summer raft]

1080hz at like 720p though no?

[shell void]

yeah

[low sorrel]

ah i forgot about that

i've been just thinking about 4k 240hz

[summer raft]

I find 1440p 360hz to be my sweet spot

[edgy laurel]

https://www.extremetech.com/computing/aoc-debuts-worlds-first-1000-hz-gaming-monitor

[fickle narwhal]

I’m confused as hell with afterburner for undervolting my gpu do I use the Core(%) and set it at -10 -20 and so on adjusting mv or is that gonna adjust at a percentage of the the voltage the cpu gets or do I have to use the curve editor

[topaz veldt]

480p

[edgy laurel]

1000Hz @ 1080p, according to the article

[topaz veldt]

you adjust the curve - many youtube/articles on it

[shell void]

it's 720p unfortunately

samsung has a 1440p 600Hz & 720p 1080Hz IPS monitor theyre putting out

1080Hz on IPS is going to be silly

0% refresh rate compliance 🔥

[summer raft]

I’d rather just get the new G6 lol 1440p 500hz

[low sorrel]

the pixels trying to respond:

[edgy laurel]

I don't think that AOC actually exists yet but the article says 1440p native @ 500Hz, 1080p @ 1000hz.

if that comes to fruition, we'll see

[summer raft]

I do like the dual mode monitors that swap between 4k 240hz and 1080p 480hz

[shell void]

outdated incorrect article from early november

AOC, Philips, Antlion, Samsung, ETC have announced the monitors

theyre 1440p 500-600Hz and 720p 1000-1080Hz

[edgy laurel]

https://tenor.com/view/oops-steve-carell-yikes-the-office-michael-scott-gif-13573950

[low sorrel]

so just for valorant and cs then

[edgy laurel]

childrens toys

[summer raft]

Maybe a hot take, but I genuinely don’t care for the refresh rate war; just want higher brightness

[shell void]

i want more refresh rate but anything less than 1440p is a joke

2880p & 1440p dualmode is interesting for occasionally playing Valorant or Overwatch

[low sorrel]

isn't there already 540hz oleds on the market?

[shell void]

yeh

2160p is my bare minimum if im stuck with one resolution though

[steel stream]

I just want brightness and HDR color volume

[steel stream]

$40.0 you got it

[turbid locust]

Nvidia keynote is 45 mins of talking about shit nobody gives a fuck about and talking 5 mins about cool shit

[devout ridge]

the first 45 minutes is interesting to the guys that are about to spend several hundred million on what they're talking about

[hot stratus]

I can't stand the stream chat lmao

[devout ridge]

then press the X and don't look at it?

[hot stratus]

Is this what he needs a multi trillion dollar company?

[turbid locust]

AI generated Jenson can’t hurt you

[fickle narwhal]

It takes artificial intelligence to read pdf’s - Jenson Wong

[devout ridge]

Jensen gonna smite you two for spelling his name wrong

[arctic bronze]

Oh no, is he ai generated

[fickle narwhal]

My gpu is gonna zap me

[steel stream]

that would be crazy

[low sorrel]

"This fucking nerd is at it again"

[devout ridge]

it's gonna turn into those appliances from G-Force

[topaz veldt]

Sick! 5090 Ti announced

[devout ridge]

YIPEE! another gpu i'm too broke to afford!

[low sorrel]

Your 5090 is trash give it to me

[autumn rain]

Wait actually?

[steel stream]

are you lying or

[fickle narwhal]

Feels like bait

[arctic bronze]

Really? Thats gonna be an $8k gpu

[steel stream]

I am wrapping up work for the day and can't tell

[devout ridge]

Jensen is currently yapping about AI Agents, so i doubt it

[steel stream]

it must be bait

[autumn rain]

Yeah I’m thinking so

[devout ridge]

That is one sick ass jacket, jesus christ

[steel stream]

5nail you bastard

[arctic bronze]

@topaz veldt explode

[devout ridge]

do i have to be the CEO of a multi-trillion dollar company to get one of those?

[fickle narwhal]

Multimodal 5090 ti

[autumn rain]

As someone who JUST got a 5090, that would be possibly the worst timing for me lol

[hoary hatch]

Is it Nvidia time?

Wake me when panther lake drops @shell void @steel stream 🥱

[autumn rain]

Oops! All AI so far

[steel stream]

Ill be at a basketball game

[devout ridge]

it's been jensen time for about 20 minutes now, about an hour of NVIDIA stuff though

[fickle narwhal]

Remove ai from this speech and it would be a 1 minute speech

[hoary hatch]

5090ti super
But it's actually just a 5090 with a vanta black cooler

[devout ridge]

i mean AI is what made his company a multi-trillion dollar company, can you blame him?

[fickle narwhal]

No but it won’t stop me from hating it

[turbid locust]

this is technically just an A6000 or some shit whatever it’s called

Whatever the fully unlocked 5090 core was

[keen wigeon]

Sir this is a Wendy’s

[devout ridge]

he'll wipe his tears with fabric made of silicon

[steel stream]

Can I have a whopper please

[hoary hatch]

Mark, sell me your R1T for $11

[fickle narwhal]

That’s the rtx pro 6000

[devout ridge]

I love how they talk about some of the products like the average consumer could afford it, while using GPUs that cost the salary of the average US citizen

[low sorrel]

I'll have a number nine, a number nine large, a number six with extra sauce, a number seven, two number forty-fives, one wit' cheese, and a large soda

[keen wigeon]

Escalator that scares me.

[turbid locust]

Need AI to read my to do list for me

[low sorrel]

Why send it to grok

[autumn rain]

Jensen is this real?

[turbid locust]

Potato, off the couch.

[fickle narwhal]

Potato is on the couch

[turbid locust]

off. the. couch.

[wraith steeple]

[turbid locust]

I wanna give my Nvidia AI robot a gun

[fickle narwhal]

This shit is cringe I’m actually invested now

[turbid locust]

AI can’t stop production fuck ups

[fickle narwhal]

Why the hairy ass arm

[turbid locust]

You don’t have arm hair?

fuckin soy boy

[fickle narwhal]

Nah it’s hairier than that

[autumn rain]

It’s just a big screen idk

[wraith steeple]

I just got here

[turbid locust]

My office thermostat has to be capping

[autumn rain]

Ah yes Palantir

[fickle narwhal]

Crowdstrike mentioned

[hoary hatch]

Holy fuck balls

Rog G14 is going intel

🥳

[turbid locust]

wthelly

[hoary hatch]

We did it reddit

Oh it's gonna have an Intel and an AMD variant

[devout ridge]

is the GB300 new or nah

[fickle narwhal]

The real question here is does the ball keep on rolling

[devout ridge]

AI says it does

his belt is alligator leather too, dude is dripped out in aligator skin

[autumn rain]

Monster Hunter ahh

[devout ridge]

"simulation is at the center of everything" jensen huang confirms the universe is a simulation

[plush smelt]

he is holding it from the RAM 😂😂😂

Meshify 2 XL Spotted

[plush smelt]

it's literally bending

[devout ridge]

so cosmos is an AI used to refine training data to then feed other AI's?

all i'm hearing is the hallucinations are only going to get worse

[wraith steeple]

I sometimes struggle to tell if I am awake or dreaming

[devout ridge]

the NVIDIA car is real!

[wraith steeple]

[turbid locust]

Can I plug my 5090 into my Nissan and just go

[devout ridge]

nah, requires minimum 8u of GB300's

starting price of 2.4m

car not included

[turbid locust]

why does he shuffle off stage like that every time lol

[devout ridge]

someone doesn't know how to walk in a blue-out

most people do a similar walk when walking off stage in the dark, idk why

[turbid locust]

WENDELL

[slim pebble]

That’s what I figured. I’m at work, what exactly did they say?

[devout ridge]

Wendell NVIDIA sponsorship coming soon?

[turbid locust]

5nail was trollin

[devout ridge]

Wendell daily drives the NVIDIA car?

[fickle narwhal]

5090 ti msrp $25000

[shell void]

i guess we're not far off from Delamain

[fickle narwhal]

Was the car driving video made with ai

[devout ridge]

does it also come with the split personalities rebelling against the main AI problem or no

[shell void]

i hope so

[devout ridge]

why did it have to be mercedes

you have to admit, jensen does a great job of monologuing for such a long time

[fickle narwhal]

Should have been Tesla

[devout ridge]

FUCK no, literally the worst option

[fickle narwhal]

Why would you actually buy it?

[low sorrel]

So Tesla stock is botta drop?

[devout ridge]

setting aside my dislike for the CEO, teslas are so cheap feeling, i genuinely dislike them

jensen just 67'ed

[low sorrel]

Yeah I forgave that for the autopilot shit, but it's been 10 years

[fickle narwhal]

Might as well keep the ai slop in one company 🤷‍♂️

[wraith steeple]

Insert Louis' video on Tsela here

[devout ridge]

i really dislike their move towards all screens as well, i like physical knobs and buttons

easier to find a physical knob for AC adjustment without having to look away from the road than it is for a screen

[low sorrel]

I feel like self driving cars isn't AI slop

[devout ridge]

yeah i feel like that is objectively not AI slop

[low sorrel]

There's a time and a place to call shit AI slop

[devout ridge]

it does actually do something, there's a benefit to it

i wonder what earpiece and mic pack jensen uses

[wraith steeple]

If you're this reliant on AI to the point to self drive, you shouldn't be anywhere near the fucking driver's seat

[devout ridge]

HOLY SHIT, its BD-8!

those guys are genuinely so cute

[low sorrel]

I mean current self driving cars are statistically safer then the average driver afaik

[devout ridge]

oh my god, i want one

[wraith steeple]

Yes but that is besides the point

[devout ridge]

imperfect video demonstration, i saw artifacting on the lanterns

it's quite evident that they got the rights from Disney

he name dropped "R2-D2 and C3-PO"

[low sorrel]

Oh my god get to the consumer tech

[devout ridge]

you telling me they aren't gonna sell me those droids?

i want one

[wraith steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/rabble-randy-marsh-sheila-broflovski-gerald-broflovski-richard-tweak-gif-22002734

[devout ridge]

Jensen talks like how i write essays for school, 5% good stuff, 95% filler

this is his chance to "socialize" so he takes full advantage

you can tell that Jensen does genuinely care about what he's talking about though

it's like watching toddlers try to jump

genuinely so similar to children that just learned to walk, trying to jump

this whole demo is just tech eye-candy

[turbid locust]

Dark Matter

[devout ridge]

the naming schemes for these AI models are being powercrept like shonen anime

[young void]

XD

[devout ridge]

they keep naming them after bigger and bigger IRL things

Vera Reuben sounds like a killer sandwich

GOD DAMN, let me look at teh specs for more than 5 seconds

[young void]

[devout ridge]

what do i think? i think that shit looks sexy as hell

they ran out of normal "cool" sounding names, and have now switched to greek mythology with their "olympus" cores

[wraith steeple]

All I'm hearing is blah blah blah blah AI AI blah blah blah

[turbid locust]

@shell void @merry stirrup @pure garnet

[devout ridge]

blah blah blah AI blah blah blah AI AI AI blah blah pretty silicon blah blah look at the copper aaaahooooga

[fervent chasm]

https://tenor.com/view/bloo-bloo-bloo-bleh-bleh-bleh-blah-blah-blah-don-pollo-gif-5754790920844288525

i love this video

blah blah blah bleh bleh bleh bloo bloo bloo

[shell void]

God i love giant CPUs

[devout ridge]

didn't he say they were two connected dies for the one on the left?

[shell void]

yeh u can see the split down the middle

it's two ~800mm GPUs fused together and packaged with a bunch of HBM

[devout ridge]

the fact that line is as thin as it is, is fucking insane

[wraith steeple]

Looks cleaner than the Z890 version

[devout ridge]

consumer dual die GPU when

the point of making separate dies even though they get put together and function a lot like a single die is for yield right?

[wraith steeple]

Those days are long gone

[hoary hatch]

Navi-31: am I a joke to you?

[turbid locust]

He’s so awkward lol

[devout ridge]

if that's a couple hundred pounds, jensen is kratos

[wraith steeple]

[devout ridge]

jensen is really a tech nerd that happens to own the single biggest company in the world

[hoary hatch]

Apple M# ultra style? 🤔

[devout ridge]

the moment linus gets his hands on it he'll take it apart, i guarantee

[hoary hatch]

Oh shit

[devout ridge]

100% liquid cooled is wild

[hoary hatch]

Apple Ultra is the closest we have to dual compute die GPU in anything consumer

[shell void]

yeh identical actually

fused together with a super high bandwidth and low latency interconnect so that it just functions like one big chip

used to scale up performance rather than to save money

[hoary hatch]

What about Jensen's mic

[devout ridge]

any single that on that stage is worth more than any of us will make in a year, several years most likely

meh, mics don't really get that expensive for stage work
