but ig could be up to your definition of what’s glossy

#

glossy is imo what you can perceive as sharp reflections

#

like i can read fine text agaisnt a glossy monitor

#

on semi matte i can’t

#

and on matte i can’t read any text

shell void
#

but the way that i see it is like this:

#

1: Glossy W-OLED (XG32UCWMG)
2: Semi-Glossy QD-OLED (PG32UCDM)
3: Semi-Matte W-OLED (PG32UCDP)
4: Matte QD-OLED (Samsung G81SF)

So pcie is better but is it much better?

"PC reset" means fully wipe of the drive and new OS installed, not using the reset this PC option in Windows, right?

used market reminds me of all the dumb decisions manufacturers made

merry stirrup

hm i may buy this

#

i can get a 7600K for like 20$

green marsh
brave panther
#

these are also x1 pcie

pure garnet
merry stirrup
#

damn idk another ocf would be cool

pure garnet
#

got meemaw on the degraded 6700k

#

it’s stable at stock but it went from doing 4.7 to unstable at 4.5

merry stirrup
#

eougf

#

bruh its literally the only anbd cheapest ocf on ebay rn

#

much too many decisions

pure garnet
#

buy now think later

merry stirrup
#

well im debating d4 or d3

#

now what is htis

#

6000 submissions oh its the meta fx board

pure garnet
#

meta
fx
pick one

merry stirrup
#

😭

#

75$ for that but it comes with a quote "4 core intel cpu"

#

so if im lucky it would be an 8320 or something

pure garnet
#

i have an 8300 on the turd board

merry stirrup
#

i played with fx a little bit like 2 or 3 times

#

pretty cool but parts only

#

more just as is i see

merry stirrup
#

its ewaste if it works or not tinky

cosmic gazelle
#

it’s actually nuts how expensive working 8700ks are still

#

like gang a 3600x is cheaper by a lot why are you charging $100

merry stirrup
#

yyeah i feel bad for anyone who buys one in 2026

cosmic gazelle
#

i sold my 3600x to a guy for like $65 and 8700ks sell for over 100 sometimes

pure garnet
cosmic gazelle
#

for a dead platform

pure garnet
#

that’s why we have the 2700k at work

pure garnet
#

should be 13700k this month though

merry stirrup
#

hurray

#

is the 2700k on anything cool board wise

#

or sadness in a box

cosmic gazelle
#

don’t fx cpus require you to change like every single value to get good performance btw lol

pure garnet
#

nah it had a z68 board from asus that bricked so i bought an optiplex 790 off ebay and threw it in that

cosmic gazelle
#

never messed with one

merry stirrup
#

damn

pure garnet
#

was cheaper than just a new z68

cosmic gazelle
#

I have a Dell SFF pc I put a 4790k in and it’s power limited to 65 watts so only boosts to like 3.6

#

all core

merry stirrup
#

i want more asus hardware

cosmic gazelle
#

i have the asus b650e that microcenter includes in the 9800x3d bundle

pure garnet
merry stirrup
#

looks gross

#

speaking of 2060 i bought one

#

i say bought loosely but it will be mine

pure garnet
#

that’s my sisters card now

merry stirrup
#

isnt it half dead

#

i think Z170 is ultimately my best bet because its the best mix between cheap and modern ish

pure garnet
#

it got revived by a repaste actually

merry stirrup
#

i have good memory for it

pure garnet
#

sits like 70c now

merry stirrup
pure garnet
#

vs perma 85+

cosmic gazelle
#

i got a similar evga model 2070 super and that thing would be above 85 24/7 straight from the factory

merry stirrup
#

@hoary hatch you have antiquated hardware what you got

cosmic gazelle
#

idk how they got away with the cooler on that thing

merry stirrup

something will always be the bottleneck but no that pairing is solid 👍

merry stirrup
#

AUGGHG i found one of the fake apexes

#

well its a fake gene but man these things are WEIRD

pure garnet
#

i need x870e apex to daily 6400 1:1

merry stirrup
#

i agree with this statement

#

x870e apex to not try a higher mem freq at all actually

pure garnet
#

x870e apex to try 8000c38 xmp

#

no subtimings 👍

turbid locust
#

I feel like 8000 on Zen 5 is the same cope level as 6000 gear 1

pure garnet
#

if i put the 98 in the mpower id try and do 8600 but i wont take apart the daily for that

merry stirrup
#

couldnt think of what to call thsi one i guess

pure garnet

that’s what my grandmas board is called

#

merry stirrup

just typing shit

merry stirrup

get that off my screen

pure garnet

still had the strix bios though

merry stirrup

oh weird

what is a reasonable price for that

pure grail

nothing will top all usbc for me

pure garnet

pure garnet

it’s in my closet just lowball me

merry stirrup

merry stirrup
#

50$ and i pay shipping

pure garnet
#

yeah sure

merry stirrup
#

sounds good

pure garnet
#

i’ll make sure i got all the cables in the box when i get home

#

then i’ll sort out a box for it

merry stirrup
#

dont sabotage the am4 oc rig

#

delited

#

i think i can lowball this simply because its delidded

#

oh its lapped (shittily)

pure garnet
#

it even has a 12 pin cable i bought for it

merry stirrup
merry stirrup
pure garnet
#

my grandma dailies a delidded 6700k

#

yeah it’s an evga p2 but odm

merry stirrup
#

oh ok

pure garnet
#

leadex platinum se 1200w

merry stirrup
#

could throw it in the main rig and leave the am4 oc rig with the shitty msi 1000w

#

it really doesnt look half bad

#

6700K like 40$, total cost is 85$

#

could lowball 50?

#

might be the winner here

pure garnet
merry stirrup
#

wow.. does that work?

pure garnet
#

yeah

merry stirrup
#

interesting

pure garnet

it’s not much of a gain vs lm but it’s cooler than the old toothpaste was

i don’t think you’ve bought a single thing i actually touch so like

#

just clearing out my closet

merry stirrup
#

fair enough

#

do you have other antiquated tech i think ive already asked this

#

NOT gpus's please no more

pure garnet
#

the fx8300 is the only thing that’s like

#

not ddr5

merry stirrup
pure garnet
#

it’s mostly boards i need to sell

merry stirrup
#

like?

pure garnet
#

z790 tomahawk, z690-e, the x870 tomahawk with broken sleep and a haunted house, and the 2 z890 setups one board should go

merry stirrup
#

yeesh uh

pure garnet
#

if i sold the ocf somewhere id probably just keep the master for a nas

merry stirrup
#

my girlfriend at some point needs an upgrade but theres nothing LGA 1700 near me

#

i dont like ryzen so why would my gf have ryzen

#

and z890 is too new (expensive) to give to her for free

pure garnet
#

i mean i still have the ks

merry stirrup
#

thats true

pure garnet
#

reselling floppa the mpower

merry stirrup
#

it would be kinda funny

#

would have to be a lil bit from now i dont have too much money to blow on hw

One message removed from a suspended account.

pure garnet
merry stirrup

yeah

pure garnet
#

oh lmao i told mac like 130 for it

merry stirrup
#

would be more worthwhile to sell to other people than someone whos just going to keep lowballing you

#

💀

#

damn maybe ill just steal it from him with the psu

#

not sure

pure garnet
merry stirrup
#

oh fair enough

#

least some money is better than not being able to sell it

#

debating on that delidded 6700k thing

#

i can get a hero for the same gen for like 70$ but it doesnt include a cpu

#

although its apparently a better board than the OCF, and that OCF has fawked pins

arctic bronze
#

😧

merry stirrup
#

merked

pure garnet
#

i might try and fbm the 4070 and some other stuff

#

i don’t actually need a 4070 anymore so it’s kinda just losing value for no reason

merry stirrup
#

#

yeah if i had a need for more gpus id consider it

pure garnet

the install in my second pc is probably about as stripped as the usual bench oses

brave panther

but with a CMOS pin set

one with a suitable reset header would be fine but the issue is that you need to hold your cmos header for it to clear

ouch

merry stirrup
#

yeah 100$ am4 board doesnt generally blow minds

brave panther
topaz veldt
#

5000 M/Ts just to do like 34 GB/s

merry stirrup
#

theres enough fclk in monolithic cpus

pure garnet
#

you just described am5 too

merry stirrup
#

indeed

topaz veldt
pure garnet
#

8600mt/s to do 2200fclk if you’re lucky

merry stirrup
#

or 83 if you put fclk at 2200 on a single ccd

topaz veldt
merry stirrup
#

my DDR4 11700K config had higher bandwidth than what is possible on any single ccd ddr5 ryzen cpu

brave panther
green marsh
merry stirrup
#

well it was the best ddr4 memory overclocking platform so

topaz veldt
#

Nothing really changed from like.... 8700k to 11700k

merry stirrup
#

thats a silly statement

#

memory controller got reworked and we got introduced to gears on 11th gen

brave panther
merry stirrup
#

8-10th sure, theyre literally the same

topaz veldt
#

the bandwidth was the same.... it was like 50 GB/s for eons

merry stirrup
#

because the frequency was the same lol

topaz veldt
#

So nothing really changed from like 8700k to 11700k

merry stirrup
#

and your point?

topaz veldt
#

Its right there. That's the point.

merry stirrup
#

your point is that 8-10th was slow because frequency literally could not go any higher on memory

topaz veldt
#

You said your 11700k config had higher potential than a chiplet AM5

#

I said well... yeah.... though nothing had changed since 8700k

#

its not like something magical happened, it was the same general shiz until 12th gen

shell void
#

very interesting... my phone is back to saying no service now that im at home, but my verizon home internet works xD

#

(it's just a glorified cellular hotspot with IP passthrough)

merry stirrup

is that or is that not worse than 11th gen exclusively beating am5

shell void
#

yeah my home internet is cellular

topaz veldt

Glad I’m not on Verizon anymore lol.

i still dont get why youre saying this to me like i dont understand the general top outs of respective intel generations 😭

I miss being preoccupied with doing a bunch of weird and silly builds

topaz veldt
#

@shell void my phone doesn't have service, my wifes does - we're on the same plan in the same house lol

shell void
#

i believe it based on the weirdness that im seeing

merry stirrup
shell void
#

my home internet gateway has no issues right now but my phone wont use the same exact tower

topaz veldt
merry stirrup
#

yes because it is common knowledge that am5 is limited on memory bandwidth 😭

civic reef
#

What's this argument about

merry stirrup
#

nothing

civic reef
#

Fair enough

merry stirrup
#

hes mad that my 11th gen cpu is faster than a single ccd ryzen cpu in memory bandwidth - i guess

shell void
#

i wonder how much faster 9800X3D would be in games if it had access to 120GB/s symmetrical

merry stirrup
#

i dont think very much because games already dont really use that much dram write/read

#

pretty sure on amd you can measure bandwidth thru hwinfo

topaz veldt
merry stirrup
#

again, i dont think its really common knowledge that am5 has a severe bandwidth bottleneck. i wasnt talking to you specifically. calm down

I just don't know what parallel you were drawing - yes, a monolithic system that does like 65 GB/s is the same potential as a later system that has 1/2 of the compute node population

topaz veldt

pure garnet
#

dual ccd benefits more from 2:1 doesn't it

Yes in this case the population of the CCDs is relevant not the age or era of the platform -- I didn't really understand the point of comparison

but instead i get redditored on how it shouldnt be surprising at all and that i am an idiot

topaz veldt

There are more internationally than in the US

#

despite the US being larger than all of the other countries combined. SO... there's that

brave panther
#

idk i tried playing on it and it was awful, latency i can feel, compression blockyness

topaz veldt
#

There is some tuning you need to do for best experience

#

I would not want it in its current form for like Warzone

#

Also did you try ultimate or free?

brave panther
#

i tried playing far cry 5 on it and foliage all blended together in blocks
like ew

#

freebie one

topaz veldt
#

Freebie sux0r

#

you can try ultimate pro-rated fwiw

#

Its worth trying just for S&Gs - its a (basically) RTX 5080

#

free only does 1080

#

so there will be massive quality artifacts

brave panther
#

i would try it but currently i have 💩 internet at home, only at work i have good stuff
