But zen 6 and probs something like cl40 8000 sticks should be a few months out

brisk jolt
young void
#

No doubts

#

it isnt rly that great

#

im currently running them on my 9950x3d but im limited by imc so i cant use the XMP profile of 8000

#

couldnt even get it working on h16a

young void
#

Itll be fun to test down the road

pure garnet
#

my daily kit is 8000c38 1.35v

brisk jolt
#

i think i saw a listing for a 8000C36 kit but I cant verify if thats actually real profile

pure garnet
#

i had a set and it was bs

young void
#

Im stuck between getting a x3d2 chip if I can hunt a used one when the time comes or if I should just wait

#

i think my 1.43v is highly overkill for the 7800C36

pure garnet
#

it's $900 for a 7-13% gain in amds testing

#

I dont know I can do CL34 or even CL32

imo just skip it and wait for zen 6/nvl

young void
#

Def only if a used deal comes along

#

They’re putting it out there for the sake of being the first to have dual vcache ccds

young void
#

Tbh the laptop games just fine, its alittle slower at dev stoof but I can go 6 months w/o a main rig

im prob skipping zen 6 and only focusing on NVL

All in good time

bro could have just said buy a 4060 ti or sumn

nvm those are overpriced now

keen solstice

feel like a 3060 might be alright for that kinda money

strange ginkgo
#

do you expect SSD's to become as expensive as RAM?

keen solstice
#

per GB?

#

no

#

relative to their pre-surge pricing?

#

also no

minor herald
#

per GB ram allways been way more per GB

strange ginkgo
#

i mean the relative price increase

minor herald
strange ginkgo
#

looking at this chart from GN it looks like i could

strange ginkgo
#

i just wonder is SSD's can really double again

#

or something like that

#

at some point the demand for PC's overall will just collapse because it makes n sense to build one

keen solstice
#

fwiw there's a difference between wafer costs and unit costs at retail

#

one would assume that demand shifts towards integrated devices that can deploy less silicon more efficiently

#

ie macbook neo, xbox series s

#

and by "demand shifts towards" I mean "all people will be able to afford are"

reef lance
#

Man, 64GB or 96GB of ram might be overkill for the vast majority of people, hell even 32GB to a certain extent. But one thing I will not complain about with my 96GB kit is that I can have a billion tabs open on two different browsers, plus a game, plus whatever else and I never have to worry about RAM usage. One day I will find a task that requires my ram capacity. KEKW

brisk jolt

keen solstice
#

compared to what?

#

windows 11 where leaving fucking discord open will hoover up 2GB of RAM all on it's own? macOS memory management is excellent

#

linux or really any previous version of MacOS? it feels like windows 95 up in here, I've never had to "reboot to feel fresh" on MacOS before and I hate it

#

I don't run a neo but I do run tahoe on a m1 pro macbook pro 16"

#

and that has 16GB so I kind of shudder at 8gb just a bit

livid flame
#

Other SI follow, market follows and so forth so I expect you’ll want to buy now if you can

#

You can argue they’re helping set a standard price, however he’s not stated how long it is and when you couple together other sensible variables. Dell being the one of if not the biggest SI, are likely to be getting the cheapest price anyone will get. Dell have this week ensured a higher price of RAM and SSDs stays, for atleast 1 year, probably 2.

@shell void so now i have another problem being VRR upon startup just flickers like hell when I move the mouse till I change the refresh rate back and forth

devout ridge
#

AI bubble pop soon so i can buy DDR4 again!

#

my server needs more ram!

wraith steeple
reef lance
# brisk jolt i just swapped 48 into my rig over my 32 and ion even use that much ram atm

Yeah, I would always rather have too much ram than not enough. That's not to say you should waste your money upgrading your ram if you don't actually need it (even ignoring current ram prices). And it is certainly true that you definitely want to get the fastest (and tightest timed) ram you can that's both within your budget and able to be handled by your CPU/MOBO. It's all a balancing act.

#

I only went with this kit because the price was good at the time for what it is and when I build my next PC in a year or two I will be taking this kit out of my current build and putting it in the next one (and then just using a lesser ram kit for my old build if I keep it). Sure, I'm not using it to its full capacity, but maybe one day I will.

#

And I especially would rather have too much ram in two sticks. Sure, if you need to upgrade you could use four sticks (if you get the same kit), but it doesn't perform as well as just using two sticks in gaming and what not, unfortunately.]

#

I actually really hate how using four sticks in a regular dual channel motherboard is less stable.

devout ridge
#

It's inherent to dual channel configs

#

You put more ranks in a single channel, there's more things to address

#

Intel handles it a bit better, but that's kind of just because they run faster memory to begin with

#

AMD's IMC is just not great

#

The chiplet architecture also doesn't help, monolithic dies have better memory speed support

reef lance
# devout ridge It's inherent to dual channel configs

Yeah, it's just unfortunate. How big of a deal it actually is? I don't know. It's been a long time since I've looked into it. However I would 100% use a four DIMM kit of ram if it weren't for that. If for literally not other reason than it looks cool to have all the slots filled skullcrying (However, I'd rather have stability).

devout ridge
#

On AM5 X3D chips, 1dpc (regardless of rank count) you can run 6000mt/s just fine, at 2dpc with single rank you're looking at more like 5600, or even 5200 if you get unlucky, with dual rank you'll probably see 5200 or maybe even 4800 if you get really unlucky

#

Sometimes you can run 6000 2dpc, but i wouldn't expect that

#

usually if you get 6000 2dpc to work it's at looser timings

#

though X3D is also less affected by memory speeds since it has the extra L3 cache

minor herald
devout ridge
#

No one should be running ddr5 4400

#

basically any ram config in the world can run 4800 if it can run anything

minor herald
civic reef
devout ridge
#

Exact same IMC as 7000 and 9000 series, but it's monolithic instead of chiplet based

minor herald
devout ridge
#

8000 series in general sucks, but it does technically clock higher with memory

#

8000 is such a weird lineup from AMD, i genuinely don't see the purpose in it's existence

minor herald
#

they have bad VF curve to be used in laptop so sell as cheap desktop cpu

devout ridge
#

I see way too many people using 8000 series chips, and i'm convinced it's because they thought "bigger number better"

#

(compared to 7000)

minor herald
#

i allso seen that with 7900x3d

#

over 7800x3d

devout ridge
#

I kind of dislike AMD's numbering scheme, since at least within a generation bigger number should be better

reef lance
# devout ridge AMD's IMC is just not great

Yeah that's another thing I'm not exactly a fan of. Isn't a deal breaker or anything, but I'm not going to pretend I didn't wish both CPU manufacturers could handle extremely fast ram. When I upgrade my build in a year or two there is a very good chance I switch to an AMD CPU depending on what things look like at the time. If I do switch to AMD, assuming their IMC hasn't gotten better, I'm almost certainly going to be using 6000MT/s XMP profile on this kit or ram instead of the 6600MT/s it is capable of.

devout ridge
#

7900x3d being worse than the 7800x3d never made any sense

devout ridge
minor herald
#

they can do like ddr5 8000 on ryzen 7000/9000

devout ridge
#

Gear 2 on AMD clocks pretty damn high

#

(Gear 2 = 2:1)

#

Essentially 2 ram cycles occur for every 1 IMC cycle

minor herald
#

intel calls it gear amd calles it uclk devider

reef lance
#

I don't know what any of that is. Pls explain

patent gorge
#

does it also have a reverse gear

minor herald
devout ridge
minor herald
devout ridge
#

So if the ram is running at 4000mhz(8000mt/s) then the IMC is running at 2000mhz

brisk jolt
devout ridge
#

Whereas with gear 1 it's 1:1, so the IMC clock matches the ram clock

like cpu like 9600x 3:3:2 os what i recomed

devout ridge
#

iirc 7200g2 is about equivalent to 6000g1 in performance (feel free to correct me)

patent gorge
#

it sounds counterintuitive that you'd get better performance if you run memory controller at a lower speed blobcatthinking

minor herald
devout ridge
shell void
#

DDR5 is supposed to be ran in Gear 2 by default which is what Intel processors have always done, we only run Gear 1 for a very small latency benefit because Ryzen CCDs can’t utilize more bandwidth than DDR5 4400MT/s provides anyway

#

this should be changing with Zen 6

devout ridge
#

But yes, if the frequency stays the same, G2 is worse than G1

ok pcie gen4 x8 to gpu and x4 gen 4 to m.2?

civic reef

Mhm

minor herald

or is it x4 x4 x4 and 2 of thme are m.2

civic reef

No idea

#

Also it has a hybrid core layout

4x Zen 4 & 4x Zen 4c

Oh wait I think I get it

It still utilises hybrid core layout

brisk jolt
#

he didnt pay his rent

civic reef
#

2 + 4

minor herald
# civic reef Wait how so

like 8MB for the 4 zen5 cores and 8MB for zen5c cores and its split like it was on the 4600G into 2 4MB pools

minor herald
# civic reef 2 + 4

you know how the R9 cpus in things like games where offen slower then R7 counter part

minor herald
civic reef
#

Oh so Ryzen 7s with a single ccx performed better because of the lack of additional delay?

minor herald
#

so the 3700x had 2 ccx with 16MB each
and on the r3 3100 and 3300x both had 4 cores and 16MB of L3, 3100 was 2ccx of 8MB
where 3300x was 1 ccx of 16MB

#

and if you clock both to same clocks the 3300x was bit faster

#

idk about any amd cpus where you can conpare direclty 1 vs 2 ccx with out bring cache/core count into the mix

balmy pumice
#

I think HBM is the reason why the RAM shortage is still going

#

HBM shouldn't exist

topaz veldt
#

Conventional memory is the reason

#

Regularly ordering servers with 3TB+

patent gorge
#

or because OpenAI still has that 40% reservation in place

#

hope they get so screwed financially that they have to cancel that deal

dapper junco
patent gorge
#

iirc it made the deal with 2 of them at once, but I don't remember which

dapper junco

Yea, I've only read the rumor about the cancellation of the sk deal

topaz veldt

Ain't no one cancelling anything

if they can't pay for it they'll have to cancel
