Eh that's not too bad tbf, just that I imagine originally when the XTX that claim of the xt to try and upsell was still correct until no one could buy from the manufacture anymore

subtle flare
#

4080 isn’t dumb

#

It’s a fantastic card

#

The only problem with it is price and only price

#

@misty glacier If you’re looking for latest gen, you’re going to want to look at 4090, 4080, and 7900XTX only

#

4070Ti, 4060, and 7900XT are going to be effectively irrelevant and underperformed

#

In terms of pricing, if you get a FE card from AMD, it will be your cheapest option

#

However, it’s sold out

#

For a pricier (and essentially better) AIB version, it’ll be roughly $100-400 more expensive

#

Reaching/surpassing 4080 MSRP

bright shard
#

which are either not out yet, or still OOS.

subtle flare
#

AIB 4080 will obviously be more expensive than FE

#

If you want RT, go nvidia 4080

#

Unless you have cash to burn or a liver to sell and get the 4090 which is still performance king of the era by a mile

#

If you’re on a budget or aforementioned by many people, save the money to upgrade other parts, XTX is a decent card, though beware it has many issues alongside driver issues and immature software

bright shard
#

fwiw, i've not had any driver problems.

subtle flare
#

AMD has been doing great improving every day, so most things should be fixed by January 2023

subtle flare
bright shard
#

list the issues.

subtle flare
#

Power delivery, they still haven’t fixed the fan curve, so some people still experience coil whine, and I’ve seen people having issues with the vram other than Jay2Cents

#

That’s only with FE card

misty glacier
#

Honestly now with these prices my build I got on pc part picker is 2000 dollars

#

The gpu is the main reason it's that much

#

And the fan/cooler

bright shard
subtle flare
#

Even then if you manually change the fan curve, you can’t go above 80%

bright shard
#

im not going to play base an argument on stock fan curves when nvidia fan curves are shit anyway.

subtle flare
#

Well I never said nvidia had good fan curves either

#

Obviously all factory fan curves suck ass

#

They can be optimized so much better

#

However, the newest generation GPU competing against the top market share shouldn’t have trivial issues like that in the first place

#

Temps on nvidia’s GPUs are also better, but that’s because the 80 and the 90 have way bigger heat sinks

bright shard
#

my biggest argument against buying the xtx is the 2 8 pins. wrong move imo.

subtle flare
#

XTX is a 2 slot card

lilac plank
#

Is having more than 2 Ram sticks necessary?

bright shard
subtle flare
#

What do you think should they have done?

bright shard
#

3 8 pins.

subtle flare
#

AIB versions have that

bright shard
#

missing the point.

subtle flare
#

Obviously for overclocking and power draw

lilac plank
#

so should I buy more

subtle flare
#

@lilac plank Normal standard is having 16gb in a computer nowadays

lilac plank
#

ok thanks

bright shard
lilac plank
subtle flare
#

@bright shard AMD never looked to over clocking in the first place. The entire presence of their products revolve around power consumption and TDP Watt power draw per performance

#

They focus on providing extreme performance on minimal power draw

#

They probably never would’ve put a 3 8 pin since it’d be effectively useless for them

bright shard
#

except, even they walked it back. them flipflopping on power draw was the wrong move.

lilac plank
bright shard
#

the xtx isnt all that efficient compared to the 4080

subtle flare
#

Yea

#

I don’t know what AMD did to screw up power delivery and their voltage capacitors

#

But they screwed up with that

fleet canopy
#

All ram kit comes in 2 or 4

#

The standard being a 2 stick

subtle flare
#

Obviously AIB models fixed that

#

But not the same

bright shard
#

they're screwed up because they are starving the core clocks.

#

at 2 8 pins

subtle flare
#

Rip

#

I mean

#

I guess they achieved what they wanted in their eyes

#

54% increase in performance per watt from previous gen

bright shard
#

realistically, 7900xt has more oc headroom.

fleet canopy
#

4 is something you could get but because it's more sticks, it'd be more expensive getting a 4x4gb kit than a 2x8gb kit of the same speed and timings @lilac plank

subtle flare
#

At the expense of starving their core clocks and screwing over power delivery

bright shard
#

if you're doing ddr5, get 2 stick kits, as they OC better.

fleet canopy
#

Plus no point imo in having more sticks, just get a 2 stick kit of whatever speed and put it in 2nd 4th slot

bright shard
#

filling all dimms is harder on the memory controller

#

you might not hit xmp

fleet canopy
#

If you like the looks of it, you can order fake ram sticks for visuals only

subtle flare
#

What I didn’t like was how some YouTubers would overclock the XTX, then claim they beat the 4090, but you also have to realize that 1. Overlocked machines aren’t a baseline for comparison and 2. You should’ve made a fair comparison and overclocked the 4090, even if it didn’t have as much headroom

lilac plank
bright shard
fleet canopy
#

It'd be better to get that same exact stick again imo

bright shard
#

you can cherrypick even situations where the xtx outperforms the 4090, but its not same, and does not hold water.

subtle flare
fleet canopy
#

Is it an oc 7900xtx vs a stock 4090?

subtle flare
#

Yes

fleet canopy
#

Lol

#

Then they oc the 4090 and that just makes it more obviously stupid

bright shard
#

tbh if we're gonna compare cards, they should be founder to founder.

#

its disingenuous

subtle flare
#

Yea

#

And that’s been done

#

I got my PSU finally ordered for once

#

After being months back ordered

bright shard
#

as they will give charts, where others give crap.

subtle flare
#

I suppose I don’t have a need to overclock my build

subtle flare
#

Jay comes 3rd

bright shard
#

j is a shill

subtle flare
#

In my book

#

Better than others I’ve seen at info giving

#

That’s why he’s up there

fleet canopy
#

He's not a bad source for custom loop info I guess

bright shard
#

unless you payed out the ass for XMP

#

OCing ram on a working windows install is ballsy

subtle flare
#

64 gb of DDR5-6000 G.Skill Trident Neo

bright shard
#

do it early or not at all

subtle flare
#

So it’s AMD Expo

#

Didn’t go intel this time

bright shard
#

same horse different ass.

subtle flare
#

Lmao

#

Fair enough

bright shard
#

try for better timings then. unless its stock xmp voltage is 1.4

subtle flare
#

I’ll check when I get back and have my PSU on hand

#

Then I’ll be able to finally get into my bios for the first time

hexed estuary
#

@subtle flare let’s do a gpu trade

#

Like secret Santa

fleet canopy
#

Tradeda 4090 for a GT 710 ycool

subtle flare
#

Maybe I’ll give you a 3060 TI

hexed estuary
#

I wasn’t looking for a fair trade.
I was looking for something that rhymes with forky nighty

fleet canopy
#

My son would like to buy the rrticks furty nienty

#

wowieieieieeieieiei!!!!!

#

I don't need to trade my kidneys for a 4090 and 7900x anymor!!!

bright shard
#

Aww i wanted muns

fleet canopy
#

And buy the 1440p 360hz monitor! ycool

formal plume
fleet canopy
#

How so?

formal plume
#

oh LTT gets so many hate comments because "oh I can only game at 480p, how dare you review the RTX 4090 at 4K and 1080p I want your company to burn down"

fleet canopy
#

lmao

formal plume
#

and it just becomes the weirdest flexes of who is the most poor

#

"$25 for a backpack?? do you think I'm made of money! ...I don't need a backpack but I'm still angry"

fleet canopy
#

I think cause most people who go onto GN are usually people that actually are gonna get builds and the people on LTT are just more so not giving a fuck about it but still think it's cool

#

Like that's what I literally think of them

#

You either want random shit and memes with tech or you just want to know about stuff which GN basically provides in depth

formal plume
#

that makes a lot of sense

#

also GN I'm still a bit flabbergasted that he physically interviewed NewEgg in person

fleet canopy
#

I wish they did better breakdowns of their tech though

#

Their Xbox 360 demolition was the best one

formal plume
#

and yeah with LTT you get stuff like "whole house water cooling"
while with GN it's more "let's describe the reason the 4090 is designed the way it is"

fleet canopy
#

LTT kind of just doesn't really matter to me anymore unless it was like those 5k usd intel extreme stuff

#

And sometimes various stuff I might find interesting, but that's about it

formal plume
#

bro sameeee

bright shard
#

i dont pretend to think that LTT and GN are for the same thing @formal plume

#

LTT is largely shitposting aside from new releases.

fleet canopy
#

I usually just prefer GN for their reviews on products and Hardware Unboxed for their monitors and their reviews on cards

formal plume
#

I mean the shit posting part just makes the hate comments even better

bright shard
#

dont ascribe to malice what can be ascribed to youtube comments being youtube comments.

formal plume
#

true

#

the only legit drama I can think of is Maddison saying the tech industry, and Linus, is sexist

#

but she never led on with that

#

quit job
say blanket statement to rile people up
disappear from the internet

fleet canopy
#

Oh so that's how she disappeared?

#

Weird but alright

#

Well I looked into it and I haven't found anything of her saying anything about sexism

#

It was basically just something she didn't really fit into from what I can gather at least

#

There was one that kind of seemed to suggest something wasn't really good between people but not really a valid use of proof

celest island
#

can i3 12100f be used for streaming?

placid sentinel
celest island
placid sentinel
#

it can but redditors recommend not going over 1080p, the amd encoding thing seems to be a performance hit

#

but taking the stream from gpu encoder and pushing it to a streaming server is trivial for ~any cpu

#

as long as u don't crazy with the latency/framerate/quality settings

bright shard
#

Meant i could build the computer without needing extra weight until the end

oak arrow
#

I need some help because I tried running tiny tina's wonderlands

#

couldn't for the life of me get it to work

#

now I'm having the SAME exact issue with GTFO

#

and I have no idea how to fucking fix it

#

and I think my CPU and my whole system is dying

#

like anytime 3 minutes after playing it just

#

crashes

#

and idk why

#

someone help pelas

dry hollow
#

what gpu do you have?

bright shard
#

inb4 stock fan curves

oak arrow
#

its probably my CPU / RAM

#

cause my bottleneck is BAD

subtle flare
#

Probably, yea

#

I’m running a 1060 laptop and I get 2 fps but I can still run the game

#

Obviously a 1080 Ti is gonna be better than a 1060

dry hollow
#

you could try to run DDU and reinstall the graphics driver and se if that fixes it

oak arrow
#

I have 16 gb ddr3

#

and I have i5 4670k

#

even though the game runs

#

but it crashes like 3 minutes into playing

subtle flare
#

DDR3?

#

Jeez

#

I’m running 32 gb of vengeance DDR4 sodimm

fleet canopy
#

Well you could stay with the card, you more likely just gotta change the ram and CPU I suppose

#

Unless you are able to get DDR4 without changing the CPU?

fathom sierra
subtle flare
#

@bright shard How are your temps on the XTX?

#

It seems like it’s a rising issue

#

In fact, there’s talk where people returned it within an hour and bought a 4080

#

Not sure of the temps you get, I wanna know

#

I knew temps were going to be higher than the 4080 but not this high and alarming

#

Seems like coil whine is also present in AIB models too 🤔

bright shard
#

its also a non stock card, so the cooling on it is fucking solid.

subtle flare
#

Didn’t you get an XTX?

bright shard
#

i tried very hard to.

subtle flare
#

Well damn

bright shard
#

the backorder was too fucking long.

subtle flare
#

Man I told you

#

Did you stay up all night?

bright shard
#

i did

subtle flare
#

Well shit

bright shard
#

they even posted it early.

#

and the line was still weeks.

#

i didnt have time to wait as i needed to replace parents dying pc.

subtle flare
#

XT is going to be slightly different

#

So ig I gotta go find other people with an XTX

#

70 still seems pretty high

#

It’s reaching there

fleet canopy
#

70 is alright tbf

#

You can refer to my PC case where the side panel has to be open to not be 80-82 (using warzone to reach it)

#

And without the side panel, it's going 77-79, and causes a 5 second whirring every 10 seconds

subtle flare
fleet canopy
#

2070 Super

subtle flare
#

Man I remember those days

#

I wanted to play RTX Minecraft when the 20xx series came out

fleet canopy
#

lol I borrowed my brother's acc to try out quake rtx

#

Ran like shit but I mean

subtle flare
#

It’s a 20 series

fleet canopy
#

That's basically how Quake ran back then so eh

subtle flare
#

That’s when RTX first came out

fleet canopy
#

Yeah ik

#

I did try out the new portal

#

Crashed after like

subtle flare
#

Yea?

fleet canopy
#

The second or third elevator lmfaoi

subtle flare
#

Lmao

fleet canopy
#

Figured I might as well just not bother until I at least upgrade

subtle flare
#

I guess 70 junction is good compared to 110 junction

#

That’s for sure

fleet canopy
#

As long as it's not a fucking jet engine of course lmfao

subtle flare
#

XTX has coil whine

#

At 2500 rpm

#

Worse at 3000

#

And so on

fleet canopy
#

Well excluding coil whine, more so the noise at higher rpms

#

I'm surprised I am still not going insane with the whir

subtle flare
#

Lmao

#

Maybe you’re just used to it

fleet canopy
#

yeah I got used to it, but sometimes it kinda bugs me

subtle flare
#

I have my laptop like a jet engine

#

And I don’t get bothered to shit

#

Can’t wait to see how quiet my build is

fleet canopy
#

Never had a laptop for gaming in like forever

#

Last time I can remember using a laptop for gaming was farming sim on my dad's laptop

subtle flare
#

Ah lmao

#

I’ve owned 2 Alienware products in my lifetime of gaming laptops

#

Jet engines indeed

fleet canopy
#

Wasn't even a gaming laptop

#

Just a basic ass thinkpad I think

subtle flare
#

💀

fleet canopy
#

never crashed on me so it was good enough

subtle flare
#

Whatever works works

#

I got gaming laptops because they had more heavy duty components that could be used better in things other than gaming

oak arrow
#

how do you check crash logs

cerulean fable
#

hi waht do i do when my water rescoir explodered in my pc

#

resevoir

subtle flare
#

Takes about 3 days

#

Don’t turn it on

#

Better yet, if you have a really big container or bag and those moisture absorber bead bags, throw them all together

cerulean fable
#

i am typing this to you on my pic right now

subtle flare
#

Well you’re kinda fucking your pc with water damage

#

It won’t take damage if you let it dry out completely

#

Maybe you’re lucky and it didn’t hit any components

#

If your computer is still on

#

Lmao

#

Yea that cpu heat is gonna force shutdown

bright shard
subtle flare
#

Pretty cold would be 40

#

But it’s pretty cold comparative to the XTX

bright shard
#

Considering we keep getting people in here with non junction temps in the 80s, id say 70 is pretty cold.

#

Also that omegalul 100c junc temp on the xtx

subtle flare
#

I’d say anything below 40 is extremely cold

#

40-60/70 is moderate

#

Then anything 70-80 is hot

#

80-90 is stretching it

#

90+ overheating

#

For an XT and performance, I’d say it shouldn’t be running that hot

#

But then, you have design differences, fan curve differences, fan width, etc.

bright shard
#

Well its an ocd xt, so 350 watts

#

Basically 5 watts less than stock xtx.

#

So again. Stock xt xtx cooler is dogshit and 70c is cool for max load on air.

#

There is definitely something wrong with the stock cooler

#

I want to see a modern aircooled card with a junc temp of 40c at max load

#

So i can give them a Nobel prize

formal plume
#

honestly natural selection at that point

#

just let him bleed money

fleet canopy
#

I think at this point since the RTX 2000/3000, higher temps should at least be expected, where the 70-80c range is normal, and anything lower is pretty good

celest island
#

is ram speed important?

unique topaz
subtle flare
#

Damn it’s been a while since I stumbled across speeds like that

#

Been too busy focusing on my build with DDR5 and never saw anything really below 6000 mhz

#

Reminds me of the good old days

bright shard
#

ddr5 is a minefield if you are going AM5 route, because ideally you want 6000mhz, but at the same time, you want to push for lower CL latency if you're going to overclock.

#

basically only buy hynix dies if you intend to hit 6000 and beyond.

#

meaning timings better than 5600mhz at 32 CL latency

subtle flare
#

Maybe should’ve gotten 6600 mhz

#

I just got 2 32 gb sets of G.skill Trident Neo at 6000 MHz 30 CL each

#

But then I don’t have AMD’s flagship CPU

#

Maybe, just maybe, if 3D variants come out I’ll swap out

bright shard
#

honestly i'd wait until you can get 8000mhz memory

#

a bump of 600mhz is probably beyond fuck all fractional.

#

esp because past 6000 the memory gearing changes.

abstract kite
subtle flare
#

1.) Price: 32 gb of 8000 MHz alone is $512

#

2.) Looking at G.Skill’s website, the fastest thing they offer for AMD Expo is actually only 6000 MHz

#

Seems like anything beyond 6000 MHz lay on Intel’s side

#

I don’t have an intel setup this generation around, so I’ve basically got the best of the best in terms of memory

#

So the only thing probably bottlenecking me is my CPU

#

At least 10000 MHz is coming out, yea?

#

😂

bright shard
#

If you can oc to 12000 thats the next sweet spot

#

Does my bios even have that value lmao.

#

The reason they only offer 6000 is because the gearing changes after 6000 so you get worse performance.

dry hollow
fleet canopy
#

Don't they sell kits at 6000 with cas 30?

#

Unless it was too pricey idk

dry hollow
#

they are about $40 more if you compare the cheapest 6000 kit to a 6000 cl30 kit but I got the kit for free from the microcenter bundle so I aint complaining

bright shard
#

No, the reason is literally in the post.

#

Its the ratio of the cpu memory controller speed to the actual memory speed.

#

Main issue is that the amd chips cant cope well in gear 2 unlike intel

#

So, not only is the system more unstable, the performance goes down slightly before it goes back up.

#

But realistically, because the rates are now mismatched induces a latency penalty around gearing breakpoints.

#

Because the cpu can be left just waiting around for the next memory cycle.

subtle flare
#

And kinda disappointed I didn’t buy all in one go

#

Because when I was first building it I got my first set at $308

#

I bought my second set a month later at $263

#

This is with tax included

hollow widget
#

Alright if someone can help me with this it would be awesome, I upgraded from a ryzen 3 1200 to a ryzen 5 5600 (x370 board had to update bios) and now for some weird reason i have problems with my graphics card

#

Like when I stream any game to my friends on discord it just crashes the game screen goes black and i get a error

#

Already tried to DDU and install the drivers again, didnt have the problem for a while and then it happened again

hollow widget
#

Nevermind its worse, games crash even when im not streaming, not all the time but they do

bright shard
hollow widget
#

Doubt it, seems really unlikely

bright shard
hollow widget
#

Yeah dont know how i didnt think of that faster

#

Just did that and so far no issues but imma update if they show up again

storm pond
#

is about 120 fps what i should be getting with my 2080 super and r7 5800x3d? it seems kinda low compared to most games

fleet canopy
#

GTFO I think just has somewhat mediocre optimization

#

Dude with a 2080 Ti and a 9900K couldn't run this shit past 45FPS back in alpha/beta

#

Whereas another with an rx 570 or 580 with a 2600 could run this past 60

#

So it's probably still kind of all over the place depending on your specs

#

probably was also playing it on 4K, but honestly it was made to do 4k so it had to be bad optimization

storm pond
#

1080p

#

should i be getting more frames with my rig?

#

ah i see

#

bruh moment

fleet canopy
#

Maybe it'd do better in 1440p idk lol

storm pond
fleet canopy
#

Well at 1080p it'd be on the CPU and less on the gpu

#

And you have a 2080 Super

#

So it's a possibility

storm pond
#

but the cpu is the stronger component here by far

fossil summit
storm pond
fossil summit
#

I mean

#

This doesnt make sense when you have higher fps in most games

#

but

#

could it be that you have a 120hz display and vsync/gsync/freesync whatever turned on?

fossil summit
#

mh ok

storm pond
#

also ive seen the framerate go over 120 to like 150, but 120 seems to be about the average

fossil summit
#

Maybe look at your cpu and gpu usage

storm pond
#

gpu usually around 50-60% and cpu usually around 20-30%

#

also i have 32 gb of ram, so i doubt thatd be the problem

fossil summit
#

I have a rtx 3060 and an i7-12700k + 32gb ddr5 5600mh ram and I get roughly 70-80 fps on high settings

#

Mh

storm pond
#

oh i see

#

maybe just a tough game to run then

fossil summit
#

mhz*

#

Keep in mind I have a widescreen

#

ultra wide*

#

but i can check later what exactly my stats are

#

cant guarantee its actually 70-80 fps maybe i have it capped to reduce power usage

storm pond
fossil summit
#

Yea I never thought I would play a really good looking game again haha

#

Only two things I can think of

#

maybe update drivers and set windows power setting to max power

#
  • maybe your temps are just fucked up but i doubt it
fleet canopy
#

It isn't a tough game to run

#

The game just has really ass optimization like I said previously

storm pond
storm pond
fossil summit
#

In windows

storm pond
fossil summit
#

look for a power setting in old winfows style

#

windows

fleet canopy
#

Which it is

fossil summit
#

set it to max performance

fleet canopy
#

There's also the part where the AI is also a big factor

#

It can just tank performance trying to make a path for what is like 20+ of them at once sometimes

storm pond
fleet canopy
#

I don't think it really matters?

#

I'm not too sure about that bug just about everyone says their performance just goes down to any amount when it happens

#

Usually significant

storm pond
storm pond
#

well my fps seems to be around 120 ish at the beginning of an expedition before anything has even happened yet, so i doubt thats it

fossil summit
#

I mean how does it even work, does the host locally run a server or are there official servers or is it peer to peer kind of style

fossil summit
fleet canopy
#

It's supposed to be peer to peer

#

Which explains certain things happening when it shouldn't if you ever experienced them previously, like being attacked by nothing (for non hosts)

fossil summit
#

I get massive fps drops when lowering down at the beginning

#

I have a really fast ssd though

storm pond
fossil summit
#

Yea of course

#

Just wanted to undermine my loading in argument haha

storm pond

hollow widget
#

it was all good yesterday but the problem is back

placid sentinel
#

just chiming in, to me it sounds like psu trouble .. voltage dips and stuff starts crashing.. (had this, good psu started dying)

placid sentinel
#

he did change cpu from an i3 to an i5, bios updates and all, that's the one other suspect ofc

#

maybe do a bios full reset and try a "high performance" defaults thing just for size

#

agoeagmamosgosamg sorry 🙂 .. cpu

#

had it been a cpu + mb swap job then i'd say something more but since it's the same mb then i would start from those

north elk
#

I've had my computer crashing 2 times since I installed my new GPU, shame I can't really seem to find a log, but I guess it's a psu problem

placid sentinel
#

had a psu related gfx thing, the logs just said the d3d device "went away" and i technically had a functioning windows but even vnc wouldn't draw anything but a mouse cursor for me anymore

#

opened chassis, launched game, psu fan went "trrrrrryyyyiinngggg nope." <- 2 minutes until heat + self-protection etc

north elk
#

Crash as in: pc just instantly switches off during game

#

Happened 2 times last night

#

I should probably run a stress test

#

It was only during game after some time but

#

I'm pretty sure it wasn't hot

#

I don't play in 4k

#

And it's not the most demanding game

#

It's a way better gpu than my previous one

#

That's why I'm thinking psu

#

Uuuu didn't intend on changing this one

#

I'll check my specs after work

#

Constructor recommands 800 watts

#

I figured I wouldn't really need a 800 watt psu unless I am on very demanding game/4k

#

Or like idk mining I guess

most of the time its just a black screen closes the game and goes back to normal, had only one time when it gave me a weird graphics glitch

placid sentinel
#

hope u get it sorted, probably irrelevant but check if newer chipset drivers also

hollow widget
#

yeah will do

hollow widget
#

yeah i really wanted to avoid doing that, but seems like its a thing i should rule out so will do that too

bright shard
#

You can always chuck windows on a spare drive.

#

Windows driver management is embarrassing.

#

I basically no longer keep valuable things in C:

#

Makes Migration a hassle.

hollow widget
#

Yeah im starting to do the same

#

Just put footage and important stuff on other drives

#

But i do have a spare drive so ill see how it goes

#

probably gonna do that tomorrow though

north elk
#

Oh bruh turns out my psu can only put out 620 watts (out of the 800 required by the gpu)

#

CPU is meh

#

wait

#

CPU is Ryzen 7 1800X

GPU is 7900 XTX

#

Mhhh I have 2 CPU fans, 2 fans, 4 ram sticks

#

1 NVME, 2 SSD and 1 HDD

#

Instantly switching off during game
That's the exact issue I had when I got a Vega 64, it was in fact a psu issue, but you can probably get around it for now by power limiting your gpu

north elk
#

SMH

#

putting back the old one in the meantime

tropic beacon
#

What was your old GPU?

fleet canopy
#

It would have been best to just upgrade the entire setup if you planned on a 7900xtx lol

bright shard
#

Tfw 7700x and 7900xt

#

7700X and a 7700XT

AMD is straight up ripping Intel!!! smh!!!

7x inflation due to AMD

bright shard
#

Can no longer afford bread

tropic beacon
# fleet canopy 7900XTX and a 1800X? What in the hell

Yeah I thought that at first too, but considering the predicament they're in, if you just limit the gpu power heavily, since it's a newer architecture you'll get more satsisfiable performance and avoid the crashing and the headache of replacing parts for the short term, and the cpu will likely be much less saturated

fleet canopy
#

I feel like regardless of how much it's being limited by the CPU, it will eventually use too much

tropic beacon
#

Yeah I don't know how the transient power spikes are on RDNA 3

north elk
#

It's better than no upgrade at all in the meantime I can get both

fleet canopy
#

no excuses 😤

#

now it's time for you to plan on not just using a lower wattage power supply anymore

#

You could probably try undervolting it

north elk
#

No it's time for me to use my previous GPU

#

And wait till saturday

fleet canopy
#

idk how much you can do, but could possibly try

north elk
#

I'd rather not play GTFO in ultramaxRTX8K for 2 days than tweaking clocks on a system with an unsifficient PSU

fleet canopy
#

sm

#

h

#

you are NOT like linus smh smh

#

he could get a I think? 4090 to work with a 550w psu

#

Be like linus

#

Cheap as fuck

tropic beacon
#

Putting the old gpu is extra work, and the new architecture is more efficient, you could get the same performance at lower power consumption, or get better performance at the same power consumption, tweaking clocks isn't entirely necessary because wattman has a power consumption limiter built into it

north elk
#

It's already done tho

placid sentinel
#

monique good luck on getting the rig going, great to see ppl shoot trouble and succeed. hopefully.

subtle flare
#

Way too high for some reason

#

40xx series have a lower power draw when idle

fleet canopy
#

What about the funny idle power draw ycool

tropic beacon
#

Yeah I've been hearing about all sorts of problems with them, power consumption going up when limiting framerate, the idle issue and while decoding video as well, weird shit, the current conclusion is that rdna 3 was rushed out the door, those chips have much greater potential than we were shown

fleet canopy
#

Overall it's the usual release, it's not bad and offers a fair price for people, but usually riddled of problems

subtle flare
#

Wish it wasn’t as “rushed”

fleet canopy
#

It'll be better in maybe half a year or a whole year

#

iirc the 5700XT didn't actually get some problems fixed until it was like a year into its release and the RX 6000 had an announced date or something?

tropic beacon
#

AMD was still way too confident with the release, they're still selling the product on a promise of what it's capable of as opposed to actually having the issues ironed out before release, usual amd shit but considering they were getting a lot better in the last few years guess we'll have to live with amd fine wine for a little longer

subtle flare
#

Drivers can’t fix power delivery issues, can it?

#

So I doubt it

#

Coil whine as well

fleet canopy
#

Not really saying it could

#

But they can for the newer stock

subtle flare
#

Maybe

fleet canopy
#

Just gotta buy a new one VeryCool

#

Maybe they'll do a recall?

subtle flare
#

No way

#

They don’t have enough market share and nvidia definitely didn’t do a recall on the 4090

#

It’d look really bad

#

On AMD’s end

tropic beacon
#

I think the idle power can be fixed with drivers, not sure about the rest of the issues, they'll probably do a refresh mid into the lifecycle

fleet canopy
#

I can't really recall a problem the 4090 had

subtle flare
#

12HWPR cable?

#

Recall that fiasco?

#

Even then nvidia was generous enough to accept RMAs for user error alone

fleet canopy
#

oh yeah power cable

subtle flare
#

then you have AMD not accepting recalls for 110 junction temps

#

Laughable compared to nvidia

fleet canopy
#

But the solution to that was just getting a cable from the funny custom cables

subtle flare
#

Lol what?

fleet canopy
#

Or NVIDIA could have just sent out a power cable for free

subtle flare
#

No it wasn’t

#

The solution was to plug it in all the way lmao

#

It wasn’t necessary to order a $60 custom cable for the cable alone

#

Even native adapters had the issue because of user error

#

There wasn’t one single instance of the cable or the card that caused the issue

#

All ~50 cases were solely on users

#

Surprisingly enough that it was an issue in the first place when the 3090 Ti had the same exact cable and didn’t see the issue

fleet canopy
#

From what I heard, they apparently changed something about the power cable

subtle flare
#

Nah

#

They haven’t changed anything

#

Don’t know where you heard that

fleet canopy
#

From some funny youtuber somewhere

#

There was this guy who owned a 5700XT and the drivers weren't good so instead he just went for something like a 2080 Super or ti instead

subtle flare
#

Microsoft fucked over AMD software too

#

Couple months back they announced it would screw over AMD software

fleet canopy
#

Maybe they'll get there one day

subtle flare
#

AMD’s always been on the losing side

fleet canopy
#

Jesus discord is stuttering like a fucking nightmare

subtle flare
#

It’s really bad since all the major corps are also starting to shit on them

#

If you pair an intel chip with an RDNA card it’s even worse

#

Guaranteed worse performance

north elk
#

Only times I ever got problems with AMD driver were if I chose to manually install with Radeon Adrenalin, and Windows Update updated without my knowing

exotic basin
#

SubaSleep me and two friends still prefer AMD on principle

#

Was recently Intel actually overtook them again in CPUs

#

Like it's so "back and forth"

#

I don't trust amd gpus tho

#

Went with 3080

#

Just need trouble shooting next month or whenever my friend is free SubaSleep

#

I know the terminology from studying for like a month or two but building it is out of my league

just putting it out there, my 7900xt works literally fine.

I've seen that "they shipped an unfinished alpha GPU, look at the number" hoax

That just came out of nowhere

im saying, a lot of stuff is overblown.

north elk
#

Yeah

bright shard
#

there are problems, but even then, the stock coolers are half the problem.

north elk

Heck, my previous GPU used to run at 95° almost all the time

PC was unironically what made up most of the heating of my room

never had a gpu go past 70 since my 8800gt

north elk

Damn

thing toasted itself to death at 85c

north elk

Dang

#

That's harsh

#

85c is low

bright shard
#

15 years ago? perhaps not.

north elk
#

I mean, a gpu should be able to withstand more

#

Ah

#

I'm talking from only 10yrs ago

#

Yeah that's what I thought

#

8800gt should be able to operate up to around 100c

Hey I got a question for a friend I am trying to get into gtfo would a P52Jc gaming lab too be able to run gtfo

not a chance.

To play GTFO mildly efficiently you're looking in just graphics alone at the RX570 range or better.

rose mica

Oh my god I forgot this was here

I could have asked for help if I needed it AUGHHHH

fleet canopy
#

Yes

exotic basin
formal plume
#

thats just brand loyality

#

same reason people are all "I only buy Ford trucks" or "I only buy the real Oreos none of that off brand stuff"

exotic basin
#

Yee that's the phrase

formal plume
#

I mean the drivers really aren't that bad anymore

#

still bit of a meme

#

also this tbh

exotic basin
#

I think they're cheaper no?

fleet canopy
#

AMD is cheaper

exotic basin
#

I assumed so

fleet canopy
#

But you suffer no good RT and mediocre gpu software support compared to chad nvidia

formal plume
#

I love the "it's worse than Nvidia so it must be cheaper" attitude

fleet canopy
#

It gets mostly solved in like half a year

#

So by then it's a good product without too many bad software

formal plume
#

realistically who the actual fuck uses raytracing aside from a couple times to just try it

fleet canopy
#

Some people just wanna use it sometimes pensive_cry

#

Like sure, you don't need to have it

exotic basin
#

Wait what

fleet canopy
#

But when it's a singleplayer game, you might as well just turn it on

exotic basin
#

I got my 3080 for 780 and they're now 1k

fleet canopy
#

Lucky you I suppose

formal plume
#

"oh you don't need raytracing" bro is out here poor shaming gamers for not using raytracing

fleet canopy
#

But yeah prices are literally shitting the bed every time it might go down

bright shard
fleet canopy
formal plume
#

the only game I think raytracing is actually viable on is Cyberpunk 2077

fleet canopy
#

It's just that NVIDIA is expensive as fuck and ray tracing was literally a pointless thing to use until the RTX 4000

bright shard
#

tfw i load up a gorgeous hyperdetailed game.
no raytracing support.

formal plume
#

otherwise it's just that GTA 5 "we drenched everything in water" RTX

formal plume
#

if GTFO had amazing raytracing I would consider it

fleet canopy
#

I don't think you would

#

From experience ray tracing seems to make like the worst lighting sometimes

formal plume
#

oh because I don't support your water coated roads

fleet canopy
#

And by that I mean that if there aren't enough lights, it's like the literal darkest fucking side of the moon

exotic basin
#

I've never used ray tracing so it'll be my first experience

fleet canopy
#

It's probably going to be much worse than using the actual lighting that isn't from ray tracing

formal plume
#

ray tracing is a marketing gimmic with CP2077 being the only game that is useful for it

bright shard

the weird occluded shadows on things are the ugliest thing in this game

Winter been busy for me and my friend, who's going to be trouble shooting whenever. Idk the difficulty of a first build. But I'm not touching it SubaSleep

fleet canopy
#

It's not really that hard

#

Just a basic expensive lego build

formal plume

^^^

exotic basin
#

The cpu cooler installation gave me some anxiety because of the cpu pins looking fragile

formal plume
#

literally nerdy lego

bright shard
#

i put a pc together about a week ago

fleet canopy
#

You don't really have to worry about it aside from touching the gold pins

bright shard
#

on a scale of hard things, its easy.

fleet canopy
#

It's since the oil on your hands may ruin it, so you can just wash your hands before doing it if you want

bright shard
#

i always just give contacts a good rub with lint free and isopropyl

#

if i touch the contacts

exotic basin
#

I'm not really certain what the issue is from it not starting. Shouldn't be PSU since the monitor did display no signal sign think

bright shard
#

ive had monitors just not work

exotic basin
#

Maybe the display port just blows for me idk

bright shard
#

if he does not have diagnostic leds, he needs a post buzzer

fleet canopy
#

Either the cable, or you should test it with another PC to be sure (if it's available)

bright shard
#

sometimes, its not even the cable

#

they just dont talk without drivers

fleet canopy
#

Drivers for monitor

#

?

exotic basin
#

I have a 1660 ti laptop I can maybe see if the monitor turns on that way SubaSleep

bright shard
#

it probably will

#

but anyway

exotic basin
#

I have pc picker list somewhere

formal plume
#

nice

bright shard
#

if he has a gpu installed, just make sure hes not plugging the display into the motherboard like a dunce

#

its like a 50% occurrence in new build help sections

exotic basin
#

The 5950 became a 5900x and that's only change I believe

#

SubaSleep I cheaped out on ram ngl

#

And ssd

exotic basin
#

I need to go check. Got home from work

fleet canopy
#

I could say you might try a 5800X3d, I know it's suppsoedly a great competitor to the Ryzen 7000 series, I think it's better in gaming performance than the 5900x if that's what you're solely looking for

exotic basin
#

Hmmm

#

Maybe

bright shard
#

is that

#

fucking pigtails

exotic basin
#

The gpu yep YEP

bright shard
#

dont do that

exotic basin
#

Ah

#

Everything was all my buddy SubaSleep

#

I was a spectator

fleet canopy
#

Is that a cable connecting to the card into the card?

#

Or is that what the cables look like with the multi cable split thing

bright shard
#

its a 2 8pin

fleet canopy
#

Ah ok so that's what it just looks like then

bright shard
#

so definitely not kosher

exotic basin
#

I believe the psu and gpu are connected

#

Might have to text him later if he remembers what he did

bright shard
#

the skill solution to this is run another separate 8 pin

exotic basin
#

If they weren't connected and it starts im going to die laughing

bright shard
#

you are missing a mobo standoff

#

2 standoffs

exotic basin
#

A what jeffjinx

#

Ah

#

Idk if I have any

#

Unless it's in the box

#

I have some stuff leftover

fleet canopy
#

Just use a nail and hammer it down! VeryCool

bright shard
#

looks like youre missing a cpu power cable

#

you have a post display led in the bottom left, you dont need a buzzer.

#

top left. next to the other cpu power

fleet canopy
#

I mean, I suppose cause of some being a newer power req

bright shard
#

good boards come with extra

fleet canopy
#

Or that yeah ig so

bright shard
#

his board has 2x 8 pin

#

i only see 1

exotic basin
#

I don't see any standoffs unless I'm looking right at them

#

Ah

bright shard
#

wait, no. it cant be.

#

did he plug the cpu power cable into the gpu?

exotic basin
#

Thinking

#

Maybe I've misplaced them in one of the boxes

#

Maybe

#

All I did was install the ram sticks, my buddy did everything else YEP

#

I think he's at work today

#

A busy man

bright shard
#

for sanitys sake, if the pc is plugged into the wall, unplug it.

exotic basin
#

It's not plugged

#

The case by itself

#

That much I can tell you SubaApprob

#

I'm not very fluent in technology SubaSleep

My knowledge is what I've looked up for a week on YouTube

#

Could be due to the liquid cooling setup, some motherboards refuse to post without the primary CPU fan connected. Might be worth trying to move that CHA_FAN1 to CPU_FAN

bright shard
#

wait

#

lmao his AIO isnt even plugged in

#

its a good thing this thing didnt even try to post.

exotic basin
bright shard
#

this thing needs a step back.

last tide
#

You're probably safe on the CPU/GPU plugs being mixed up, the plugs don't fit together without modification.

exotic basin
#

My friend did say he was rusty in pc building but I rather him on it than me SleepTime

bright shard
#

because of the pigtails i wonder if its possible.

exotic basin
#

I'm just too overwhelmed trying to process everything veiF

bright shard
#

just take some notes

exotic basin
#

Ye I'm taking screenshots ig

last tide
#

Even with the pigtails, they should not fit together. If you managed to power on with either switched you'd put 12V to ground and probably get some smoke

bright shard
#

change gpu power cables to be on separate cables.
check cpu power cables because you have one empty.
actually plug in your AIO.
you're missing standoffs.

exotic basin
#

Ye idk what they really look like sadge i see screws everywhere

bright shard
#

youll have to take the mobo out to add the standoffs anyway

#

youll see em

exotic basin
#

Aight

bright shard
#

they screw into the case.

exotic basin
#

One of these screws fits YEP

#

I'll remember to label things whenever I get a second build someday

bright shard
#

check the motherboard manual
check the case manual.

#

from the PSU spec i dont even know how he has that cable plugged into his gpu, its not on the list.

#

1 x 24 pin ATX
3 x 8 pin (4+4) EPS (CPU)
6 x 8 pin (6+2) PCIe
14 x SATA
8 x 4 pin Peripheral

exotic basin
bright shard
#

this some sort of special snowflake AIO?

#

that doesnt take power from the pump header?

exotic basin
last tide
#

The GPU is PCIe, probably only 4 headers, with 2 extra via pigtails

bright shard
exotic basin
#

Why cable

#

Look funny

#

Ig since it's twin 8 pin and the design makes it not a hazard

#

That's my deduction

last tide
#

I'm seeing 6x 8-pin (6+2) on Amazon, 5th image. Also have a PSU with the same cabling

exotic basin
#

The cable was from the GPU box iirc. Don't know where else it comes in

bright shard
#

from the gpu box? very weird, probably wouldnt use it.

last tide
#

It's included with the PSU, pigtail is built into the cable.

exotic basin
#

I just know it came from something YEP

#

The gpu normally just comes by itself? And the warranty?

#

Thinking

last tide
#

I agree, don't use the pigtail if you have the cables from the PSU to support that GPU without it... but it's probably not why it fails to post.

bright shard
#

the cpu heatsink has the pump integrated into it, and is missing the breakout cable for power.

#

from the image it looks like it should be on the side next to the ram @last tide

#

wrong ping. @exotic basin

exotic basin
#

There's a cable that came with the psu. Says cpu and it's 8 pin on both ends SubaApprob

#

The aio situation I need to look into

#

I see one cable that was unopened and it's 10 pin with 4 pins and other row has 2 pins sticking out. Doesnt look right until I get a better look at the aio and see the plugs

bright shard
#

whats the 10 pin labelled as?

exotic basin
bright shard
#

ah, i missed it.

exotic basin
#

Got some weird stuff labled on other side

I have stuttering in a 1060

A 3060 shouldn’t be having that issue

Might want to see if you can reinstall your graphic drivers

formal plume
#

you're clearly exaggerating if a 1060 runs GTFO at 2FPS

it'll be at least 25FPS

formal plume

I get it's exaggeration but lying about numbers when the numbers matter is really cringe

like stfu about 2fps

we get it you're poor and the market sucks what else is new

fleet canopy
#

Maybe is 1060 is absolute shit, unlike my superior 1060 3GB that plays at 20FPS

#

I used to have it

#

Was like alpha/beta when I did

It was probably more like 35 or 40

#

But for what GTFO is, kind of too low honestly :p

formal plume

"it's their 1060 that just sucks"

@formal plume dude

#

I posted a ss before

#

And I have mentioned previously that I bought a 4090, so I ain’t “poor” like you are

#

It’s not exaggeration when there’s proof

#

1% lows were 2 fps

#

Average was 14 or something

#

Maybe even lower than that

#

Of course I have to go dig it up because some inbred can’t accept my word for it: #gtfo-media message

#

Tack that on with stuttering every single time you turn in game and it becomes 1 fps

formal plume
#

sounds a lot like a skill issue

subtle flare
#

Sounds more of that you can’t accept the truth

💀

#

For me though it still doesn’t change the fact that it was indeed ** 2 fps**

It’s just downright dogshit

But damn

My graphics card is done for

that sounds sadge

Eh don’t be sorry

#

Like I mentioned previously, I’ve built myself a new rig

It’s about time

I won’t have fps or stuttering issues anymore

And now I won’t have skill issue in game since I can now properly aim and not have to wait until the frames unfreeze

gotta love that "next Claps slide Claps please" experience in any game

@sour rapids If anything, try reinstalling graphics drivers and then reinstall the game

There could be a lot of reasons it ran at like 2fps for 1% lows

#

But yeah 1060 3gb pretty shit lol

Even if it isn't 2fps bad, it'd suck to be like me ending up with a 1060 3gb instead of a 6gb

Can’t wait to actually boot up my new build when I get back

#

That GPU isn't even that bad

#

Unless youve got your resolution really high or something

subtle flare
#

You can’t really even run above 1080p on a 1060

#

The game isn’t optimized either

#

1080 should be able to hold because that GPU is a workhorse

#

But even then it’ll hit its limit soon

#

If anything it is a GPU issue

ebon kindle
#

it may be very old but it shouldnt be bringing you down to 2fps

subtle flare
#

Another perspective is that new games being developed takes up more and more GPU vram. Sure, they may be more optimized, but a 1060 (which is 4 generations behind) only has that much limited vram and performance. Even older games are being updated to the point where you’re pushing beyond what a 1060 can do

#

Yea, I can run Skyrim and Cyberpunk, but performance?

#

It’s just dying

#

Then you got RT, which doesn’t exist for 10xx series cards and is now becoming the standard norm

#

Realistically speaking, if I did something as crazy as Let’s Game It Out, or played heavily modded games, I would get worse performance compared to 2 FPS GTFO

#

Used to load up a 200 mods Minecraft, got less than 15 fps since it was so big

#

If I ran Cyberpunk w/ mods, I’d probably get around what I get in GTFO, probably less

#

Then if I did something on Hydroneer where I plant a million plants, I wouldn’t even get 0.7 frames. My game would just legit die on itself

#

The bar’s been raised a long time ago with GPUs. It isn’t the 10xx series that you should have, but the baseline is at the 20xx series

#

Soon I will aspire to be on your level 😫

I decided to upgrade to a 1440p monitor while I had a 1060 3gb

#

And then realized it is so bad that soon after I got a 2070 Super for 500$

#

It was like a new ish product, scalping and the bitcoin thing didn't quite hit it yet

subtle flare
#

Gonna need to buy a second monitor soon

fleet canopy
#

I need one as well, I do have one but it's kind of a big 24" 1440p monitor

#

Desk too small atm, though I did get a new table supposedly coming in soon

#

Or well it's done and just has to be moved

subtle flare
#

Kinda want to wait for the OLED 240 hz panels

#

But all they offer are 47-49 in widescreens

fleet canopy
#

Therre's anew one

subtle flare
#

I guess I could get the Corsair Flex, but that’s $2k when LG has their own for $1.7k

fleet canopy
#

1440p, 240Hz, oled

#

made by LG

#

lemme give link

subtle flare
#

Nah, that’s not what I’m looking at

fleet canopy
#

Ah alr then

subtle flare
#

I’m looking at 4k 240 hz OLED

#

1440p would be a waste

#

On a 4090

#

If you wanna send it fire away

#

Shit why are all the new monitors so damn big

#

I don’t need anything above 34”

#

Corsair Flex is 45”

#

LG’s new panel is 47”

#

MSI’s project 451c is 49”

fleet canopy
#

Well apparently a lot of monitors coming out are 1440p 240hz with oled

#

So perhaps one of them will get 4k in soon that'll be smalle

#

r

subtle flare
fleet canopy
#

Yeah that one I was linking

#

It either is bullshit 0.03, or what I'm thinking is more reasonable is they fucked it up and accidentally put in 0,03 and not 0.3

#

And I assume it was recently put up, so they basically just didn't realize they made a mistake

subtle flare
#

Nah

#

It’s 0.03

#

I believe it

#

Considering Alienware’s was fucking solid

#

That was only half the refresh rate

#

LTT did a review on the Corsair Flex as well

#

Don’t recall if they confirmed if it was 0.03

#

But they were damn impressed

#

Maybe I’ll wait for CES 2023 and MSI’s display

#

Hell this is ass

#

It’s just so big

#

Price yea, no doubt it’s expensive

#

But it’s huge

fleet canopy
#

The 1700$ monitor?

subtle flare
#

All of them

fleet canopy
#

Ah

subtle flare
#

At this point it’s showing me ads for TVs at 48” 💀

fleet canopy
#

lmfao

#

They're trying to help you compensate for something

subtle flare
#

MSI’s the only one with QD-OLED

#

at 240hz

#

Wonder how much that’s gonna cost

#

I don’t want to spend over $2k for a monitor

#

That’s literally half the price of my pc

fleet canopy
#

It also reminds me

#

What about the 4090 being bottlenecked by the CPU for 1440p?

#

I heard of it, but lately haven't heard it anymore

#

Not sure if it means that the 7900X/7950X and intel equivalent can handle it for 1440p

subtle flare
#

Yea, but that’s years down the line

#

Tell me 1 game that would destroy my GPU

fleet canopy
#

Crysis

subtle flare
#

My GPU can run Crysis well

fleet canopy
#

Impossible!!!!

#

No PC can run crysis!!!

subtle flare
#

🤦

#

😂

fleet canopy
#

You are simply just lying to me if your PC can run crysis even

dry hollow
#

The ray tracing is garbage in the remaster

subtle flare
#

No no, it doesn’t have to be ray tracing

#

Any

dry hollow
#

And it barely looks any different

subtle flare
#

116 is playable

#

Any others?

#

There ain’t any new AAA titles that would destroy it

fleet canopy
#

Probably Star Citizen when it releases

#

But we don't know when it will leave early access

#

So whatever

subtle flare
#

That would actually seem reasonable

#

Every couple years would be 10+

#

Yea, it would lol

#

I’m not upgrading every generation

#

I moved from a 1060 to a 4090

dry hollow
#

That's not reasonable and this is coming from someone with a liquid cooled 6900 xt

subtle flare
#

That’s not every generation

fleet canopy
#

About 100$ a year if it's for 10 years

subtle flare
#

That isn’t bad at all

fleet canopy
#

That's like discord nitro!

subtle flare
#

Not really

fleet canopy
#

Red pill (4090) or blue pill (discord nitro 10 years)

subtle flare
#

4090 can handle 4k just fine

fleet canopy
#

Wait I forgor it's 1600$

#

So 160$

dry hollow
#

Let's be honest here, you're not keeping the 4090 for 10 years

subtle flare
#

And until I get hella bad frames I won’t need to upgrade

subtle flare
dry hollow
#

That's more realistic

subtle flare
#

After all, I’ve only swapped laptops every 5 years too

#

So

#

5 years

#

$1600 USD

#

Doable for sure

#

At 4k?

#

No
