yeah this is definitely a "ima be 90C" kinda vibe

midnight vessel
#

yall

i just realized

#

that msi version has 16gb of vram

#

wtf

#

the founders one only got 12

mortal grail
#

?

#

send link

midnight vessel
#

its gotta be a typo

#

in the name it only says 12 tho

#

im lost

mortal grail
#

that's a typo for sure

midnight vessel
#

got me all excited for nothing lol

mortal grail
#

ok yeah def between the ventus 2x and fe, fe for sure

elfin mural
#

fe

#

the 2x ventus is the 90c confirm

mortal grail
#

the 2x would be fine on this sku but it's just, not great

rancid juniper
#

Ventus can't vent

midnight vessel
#

so

#

fe

#

or

#

ventus

mortal grail
#

fe

rancid juniper
#

FE

mortal grail
#

we're all saying fe

midnight vessel
#

im having contradicting thoughts here

elfin mural
#

fe

midnight vessel
#

wouldnt another fan be better?

rancid juniper
hoary zodiac
#

isn't ventus literally just msi armor but new

mortal grail
midnight vessel
mortal grail
#

wait hold on

midnight vessel
#

i only see 1

mortal grail
#

ima bout to blow your mind

elfin mural
#

ventus is a small step above armor

mortal grail
#

look on the other side

hoary zodiac
elfin mural
#

^

midnight vessel
#

i cant turn it upside down

rancid juniper
#

RTX 4070 Super Duper

midnight vessel
#

i dont have one

elfin mural
#

the fe are 2 fans

mortal grail
#

fe has a fan on the back

elfin mural
#

one is on the back

midnight vessel
#

oops

mortal grail
#

LMAO

hoary zodiac
#

ahahahha

midnight vessel
#

holy shooz

hoary zodiac
#

his mind was blown

midnight vessel
#

i might be the smartest human alive

#

fe it is

mortal grail
#

Super FE also might be the nicest cooler nvidia has made, period

rancid juniper
#

Bro has the fattest brain

midnight vessel
#

wow

#

im def going fe now

hoary zodiac
#

MSI trying not to make a good card challenge

rancid juniper
midnight vessel
#

lmao

hoary zodiac
#

What I don't understand is

#

how are msi cards so mediocre

#

they're consistently crap

elfin mural
#

it's intentional at this point

#

"oops here's our revision"

rancid juniper
midnight vessel
#

you'd be better of just strapping on a fan to the motherboard part of the card

#

call it a day

rancid juniper
#

Huh?

hoary zodiac
#

The only reason you should buy one is if you're swapping the heatsink out for a water block

mortal grail
hoary zodiac
#

I mean

mortal grail
#

those things are cursed

rancid juniper
#

The rule of thumb is that Ventus can't ventilate

#

βœ…

mortal grail
#

later released

hoary zodiac
#

If it's that bad

elfin mural
#

ventus 3x is ok

hoary zodiac
#

There's no mid range

mortal grail
#

the first gen ventus 3x is perfectly fine

hoary zodiac
#

like

mortal grail
#

for 40 series

rancid juniper
#

What gives?

hoary zodiac
#

I'm not paying that much for a thermal throttling card

mortal grail
#

DAMMIT MSI

elfin mural
#

it's not gonna throttle

#

but

mortal grail
#

I'VE WAITED YEARS

rancid juniper
elfin mural
#

fe is just nice

hoary zodiac
#

but like

#

is it worse than the fe tho

elfin mural
#

it is

#

quite a bit

hoary zodiac
#

what's the point then

#

Isn't FE supposed to be the standard

mortal grail
elfin mural
#

being the last resort choice

mortal grail
#

FE is better than reference

hoary zodiac
#

oh

rancid juniper
#

There are cards that are worse than reference

#

It is what it is

mortal grail
#

if anything is the reference it's ventus

hoary zodiac
#

I thought FE was reference

rancid juniper
#

It is

mortal grail
#

you thought

elfin mural
#

no

mortal grail
#

but you wrong

elfin mural
#

it technically is not

rancid juniper
#

I guess I'm wrongest

elfin mural
#

fe is nvidia

rancid juniper
elfin mural
#

but not ref

hoary zodiac
#

oh

mortal grail
#

fe hasn't been reference for a while

hoary zodiac
#

pascal?

rancid juniper
#

TF the reference look like? A slab of sand?

mortal grail
#

it's regarded in nomenclature as reference

#

but it's really not

hoary zodiac
#

when someone says FE I think of the 1080ti FE

mortal grail
#

4090 FE for example has one of the best pcb's

elfin mural
#

reference is very base design

hoary zodiac
#

prime-run

mortal grail
#

lmfao

hoary zodiac
#

oops

#

i pasted a linux command

rancid juniper
hoary zodiac
mortal grail
hoary zodiac
#

classic design

rancid juniper
hoary zodiac
#

I love the 1080ti fe

elfin mural
#

that's indeed ref

mortal grail
#

we all did

elfin mural
#

the pascal fe

hoary zodiac
#

it's the ultimate reference card

#

the cooler looks so sick

#

this is peak nvidia design

#

ignore the thermals lol

elfin mural
#

imo 40 super is peak nvidia design

rancid juniper
#

Blower 4090

4090: is it me or is it crispy in here?

hoary zodiac
#

I'd say the nvidia cards with fans on both sides are a close second place for me

#

they look pretty unique

elfin mural
#

20 series was hell with fe

hoary zodiac
#

20 series looks bland

elfin mural
#

taking one apart PepeRealizes

hoary zodiac
#

they look like a generic card

elfin mural
#

the 40 series fe designs are smart

hoary zodiac
#

we should bring this back

#

dual gpus

rancid juniper
#

My guy, single gpus have proven that they are good enough

hoary zodiac
#

but it's funny

#

kepler thermals

elfin mural
#

hehe

#

690

rancid juniper
#

dual GPUs are broken af

hoary zodiac
#

πŸ”₯

rancid juniper
#

And it sucks to see them go

#

Imagine dual GPUs in 4 way sli

elfin mural
#

they sucked literally

rancid juniper
#

Would've been Power Madness

hoary zodiac
#

Imagine being able to power them

rancid juniper
#

You need 5 nuclear reactors

#

And 8 airconditioners

hoary zodiac
#

there's also this

#

peak kepler

rancid juniper
#

Titan z

#

Kinda like that design

hoary zodiac
#

watch it get destroyed by a 1650s

rancid juniper
#

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

hoary zodiac
#

yeah it looks like a maxwell card

rancid juniper
#

Goes to show how crazy architecture can buff even the weakest gpu

hoary zodiac
#

and vram

rancid juniper
#

Yes and vram

hoary zodiac
#

just look at 1650 gddr5 vs 1650 gddr6

rancid juniper
#

Night and day

hoary zodiac
#

gddr6 saved that card

#

mmm

#

it's funny how cheap ddr5 is now

#

like

#

I was expecting it to be pricey for a while

#

but no

#

they're like 2022 ddr4 prices now

elfin mural
#

the pandemic didn't put much of a dent on it

hoary zodiac
#

not 2022

#

2021

elfin mural
#

oof to early buyers tho

hoary zodiac
#

yeah

#

ddr5 prices fell off a cliff

#

and that's a good thing

#

more people can hop onto the new platform

elfin mural
#

they got good and cheap

hoary zodiac
#

7800x3d

#

with ddr5

elfin mural
#

not just cheap

hoary zodiac
#

sweet deal

#

pretty sure my 5900HX would get destroyed by a 7600

elfin mural
#

ya

hoary zodiac
#

what about multi core

#

wait

#

oh wow

#

it's stupid close to the 5800x3d

elfin mural
#

yeah

#

7600 is fast

hoary zodiac
#

it's faster too

#

in a lot of cases

mortal grail
hoary zodiac
#

really shows what a new generation of technology could do

#

I'm probably peak ddr4

#

my next laptop will definitely have ddr5

elfin mural
#

im already on ddr5

hoary zodiac
elfin mural
#

definitely want 32 gb someday

hoary zodiac
#

I've been on 32GB for years

#

can't live without it

elfin mural
#

8gb ddr5 sticks suck

mortal grail
#

you know what's great

#

64gb

hoary zodiac
#

HOW

#

they exist?

mortal grail
#

I stop like

#

caring about things

hoary zodiac
#

I stop caring at 32GB

#

I'm just constantly choked by the CPU

#

because paradox games

elfin mural
#

8 gb ddr5 sticks indeed exist

mortal grail
#

no but you truly stop at 64

elfin mural
#

and they're all

#

trash

hoary zodiac
#

Is it even cost effective

mortal grail
#

ok hold on

#

not trash

hoary zodiac
#

to make 8GB sticks

mortal grail
#

just not good

elfin mural
#

ok

#

so meh then

mortal grail
#

it still beats 8gb ddr4

hoary zodiac
#

I mean

chrome mirage
#

Halo 2 is going to be 20 years old this year.

hoary zodiac
#

if you have to compare it to ddr4

#

πŸ’€

elfin mural
#

i kinda wish this thing had one 16gb

#

instead of 2x8

hoary zodiac
#

laptops are slow

#

in terms of ram

#

they're too cheap to give 32GB options

elfin mural
#

mine is 4800 lol

hoary zodiac
#

I had to get 2 entirely new sticks

mortal grail
hoary zodiac
elfin mural
#

true

mortal grail
#

you don't get as disgusting lows at all with dual throughput

hoary zodiac
mortal grail
#

mhm

hoary zodiac
#

true

mortal grail
#

it's half rank dual channel

hoary zodiac
#

still

elfin mural
#

so they're technically quad when two

hoary zodiac
#

wait

mortal grail
hoary zodiac
#

is quad channel supported on ddr5 platforms?

elfin mural
#

yep technically

hoary zodiac
#

finally

elfin mural
#

with just 2 sticks

hoary zodiac
#

should've been done ages ago imo

#

X79 had it

elfin mural
#

amd refers as dual channel but whatever

#

it's a debatable topic

hoary zodiac
mortal grail
#

it makes things interesting when 192gb is technically possible

#

just at ddr4 speeds

hoary zodiac
#

I mean

#

If you need that much ram

#

You can probably sacrifice the speeds

elfin mural
#

yap

mortal grail
#

ddr5-3600?

hoary zodiac
#

pfffffffffffff

#

that's painfully slow

#

but still

#

192GB

#

to be fair ddr5's like cheap enough these days

#

so 🀷

mortal grail
#

at this point ddr5 still has a maturity issue for 4 stick high density configs

elfin mural
#

192 on consumer platform

#

that's impressive

hoary zodiac
#

this is why HEDT is dead

mortal grail
#

but 96gb and 64gb is very capable of running very well

hoary zodiac
#

THIS

mortal grail
#

hedt is not dead

#

hedt is more alive than ever with TR 7K

#

lmao

hoary zodiac
#

true

mortal grail
#

hedt is a specialty case is the thing

hoary zodiac
#

Usually when i think of hedt i think of x299

#

that's more mid range tbh

elfin mural
#

intel hedt is

#

hopeless

mortal grail
#

intel hedt long gone

#

but you never know

#

it's a whole market

wary fjord
#

pff

#

amd amd

mortal grail
#

they might try something in the near future

hoary zodiac
#

what i don't get is

#

why did they stick to skylake

mortal grail
hoary zodiac
#

for the majority of x299

mortal grail
hoary zodiac
#

like

#

just why

rancid juniper
mortal grail
hoary zodiac
#

πŸ’€

wary fjord
hoary zodiac
#

don't consumer grade cpus outperform them?

wary fjord
#

consumer barely know what they buying

#

xD

#

they often got salestalk

mortal grail
#

multi thread (what they're wanted for) never

rancid juniper
#

Alot of software crave single threaded tasks

elfin mural
#

10nm for the longest time was intel's bane

rancid juniper
#

Yes multicore is important

elfin mural
#

they couldn't until a long ass time has passed

rancid juniper
elfin mural
#

so they had no choice

#

that and perhaps the monopoly

hoary zodiac
#

wasn't rocket lake just as dense as zen 2 or something

mortal grail
#

rocket lake was funny

rancid juniper
#

If AMD literally died it would've been over for so many

elfin mural
#

rocket lake was backported 10nm

mortal grail
#

it was good in that it was 14nm ++++++ remastered special edition perfected

#

but it was also very much just a 9900K

#

or 10900k

rancid juniper
#

And then alder lake showed up

#

But then they introduced the weird e core p core gimmick

hoary zodiac
#

I hate nanometers work

rancid juniper
#

What is this

mortal grail
tranquil pebble
#

nanomachines son

mortal grail
#

it's the official term but physical representation, nm not really it

#

more like umbrella term

hoary zodiac
#

yeah nm is more like marketing these days

rancid juniper
#

Oh no, tlou2 remastered gameplay is out today

#

And it looks like the same game

hoary zodiac
#

remastered?

#

how old is the game

rancid juniper
#

I see no difference

hoary zodiac
#

don't they have something better to do

rancid juniper
elfin mural
#

the last of woke 2

hoary zodiac
#

I can understand remastering something like

#

resident evil 4

#

but really?

#

the last of us 2?

rancid juniper
#

What's with companies remaking/remastering the same product

#

Lol

hoary zodiac
#

at least with like

#

mafia 2

#

you can see the graphical improvements

rancid juniper
#

Super
++++
Remastered
Ultra HD
Enhanced and idk

mortal grail
# rancid juniper And it looks like the same game

The Last of Us Part 1 Developers, The Team at PlayStation Studios and Naughty Dog have recently made a delay statement regarding the TLAU Part 1 Release and They went through and talked about how they need just a few little extra weeks to truly make this one of the experiences of all time, because we all know how this game came out and the state...

β–Ά Play video
mortal grail
#

omfg I don't remember it being this bad

hoary zodiac
rancid juniper
#

When that pc port launched, it was one of the worst games on the steam store

hoary zodiac
#

like

#

the mafia 2 remaster wasn't much of an upgrade

#

but like

rancid juniper
#

Heck it's just as bad as Batman's arkham knight game

hoary zodiac
#

at least it wasn't the same exact game

mortal grail
#

ugh reminds me of a certain shill

hoary zodiac
#

there were new high resolution textures

rancid juniper
hoary zodiac
#

an actual team worked on it

hoary zodiac
#

mafia 2 was a remaster

rancid juniper
#

Heh

hoary zodiac
#

mafia 1 was a proper remake

#

mmmm

#

that game is goregous

mortal grail
#

gore

rancid juniper
#

Panik

hoary zodiac
#

I should probably finish that game

#

πŸ’€

mortal grail
#

have fun lads I'll be back onl later

rancid juniper
#

Finished the story of that new ratchet and clank game

hoary zodiac
#

It's also nice how people who owned mafia ii got the remaster for free

rancid juniper
#

It's alright

rancid juniper
hoary zodiac
#

It's not just lighting changes either

#

they actually made new textures

#

or rather

#

updated the textures with high resolution models

#

It plays the same as the original but hey

#

at least it's literally not re-releasing the same game

#

and calling it a remaster

sinful blade
#

Give me RE5 as a remaster and I’ll cry

misty sparrow
#

it’s more of a remake but they called it a remaster

chrome mirage
misty sparrow
#

although the 100% collectibles in free roam can burn

hoary zodiac
#

Other games were remasters

Hey guyssss

#

Huhh i did a return

#

grand kernel
#

@mortal grail I may have identified the cause of the PC not turning on in the case

#

I think the mobo's front usb header has failed in some very strange way

sour falcon
#

yall think a crucial p3 plus 4tb will be fine without a heatsink?

grand kernel
#

cursed PC images

young matrix
grand kernel
#

tore out the case's front i/o lol

#

I was plugging stuff into the mobo one by one, I had the PC booting in the case consistently until I plugged in the front usb 3

#

then it triggered mobo SCP again

rough zinc
#

Or I’ll break you

grand kernel
#

i'm not breaking it i'm fixing it 😦

#

sometimes fixing requires some... controlled breaking

north crescent
#

Did you end up ever wasting your time doing what I suggested last time, mobo+24P but no EPS/CPU/RAM/etc?

grand kernel
#

yeah i did

north crescent
#

Was mobo able to start with no EPS?

#

Kinda curious about that

grand kernel
#

yes

north crescent
#

Neat

sour falcon
#

Electronic power steering???

elfin mural
#

no

#

eps is cpu power

sour falcon
#

lol

craggy shoal
#

They put electronic power steering on motherboards lol

sour falcon
#

He gets it

plain stone
#

Thoughts?

#

which should I focus on first?

#

what about parts recommendations?

#

what component should i keep using?

elfin mural
#

ram is arguable

#

but other stuff should be upgraded

plain stone
#

same with mobo? last time I asked it's not too necessary

elfin mural
#

yeah it's not strictly necessary

plain stone
#

so decided to just keep

#

I'll start with cpu and gpu then

#

probably gpu, but idk why i feel like i gotta upgrade cpu

#

ooh and a decent cooler, never tried taking out a heatsync before

elfin mural
#

cpu upgrade is also nice

plain stone
#

yup, 3600 is going for around $60

elfin mural
#

with am4 you need to run your pc for a bit, let the paste on cpu get warm

#

or you can risk the cpu coming off while removing the cooler

plain stone
#

also foxy I'm getting the thing cpu

#

i forgot what it's called but I'm only getting the cpu that's it

#

hence why cheap

elfin mural
#

tray?

#

yeah

#

no cooler

plain stone
#

ah yeah

elfin mural
#

they ship you in some packaging that doesn't have a cooler

plain stone
#

yes, so those cooler master ones should suffice

elfin mural
#

i would at least get a tower cooler

#

not those old designs

plain stone
#

i mean i can try to find a brand new one but I haven't done much research on that yet if i can save more from that

plain stone
elfin mural
#

you probably can't find any cheaper 3600

#

tray doesn't mean used

plain stone
#

why do they do that?

#

or sell

elfin mural
#

they're new, but they're more like for oem use case

#

oems do that

plain stone
#

ah understood

elfin mural
#

they order just the cpus

plain stone
#

no wonder

elfin mural
#

then slap on their own coolers

plain stone
#

my little bro has to upgrade together cpu mobo and ram right?

elfin mural
#

what does he have rn

plain stone
#
  • he has an althon 8 with ddr3 ram and some old ass mobo that most definitely doesn't support r5 3600
elfin mural
#

oof

#

that's definitely too old

plain stone
#

yes, we'll be happy getting the ram together with the same cpu

#

mobo i will either lend it to him and buy or he buys his own which would be b450 most likely

elfin mural
#

id probably find an a520 or b450

devout forum

Good gravy
The people under UBM's "USERS VS BRANDS" video actively gave me brain rot

elfin mural

why did you go to ubm

plain stone

I didn't!

Youtube threw it on my front page for some Godforsaken reason!

atomic current

never even played cs games lol

#

closest I got was the hypixel thing

#

no idea how my 4460 + 970 would do with cs2

plain stone

20-30fps perhaps

#

it's the fluctuations for us that made us quit

elfin mural

60 i think

but the 4460 will give you issues

yep

thankfully wt doesnt need anything for a cpu

wt?

i have tried games that need so much hardware

it's like $100 for a kit of laptop ddr5 here, 32 gb

I tried running Witcher 3 on max graphics with my gtx 960

my god

there's not even ddr5 kits for laptops here

only single sticks

If I get an aio water cooler should I use it as an intake fan or exhaust fan for my pc?

Yeah that’s what the guy on YouTube did

If u do an intake it’ll blow hot air into the gpu

Not ideal

Maybe the normal fans should do that then and just have air go into the rest of the pc

I mean I could do a custom loop but the aios just seem less risky as long as they don’t leak

If u do it right a custom loop won’t leak

But you have to test it first ofc

Most good aio never reall leak

U shouldn’t do a custom loop unless your using high end parts as well btw

I’m thinking I might do an aio before I ever do a custom loop because with a powerful pc air cooling might not cut it but at the same time aio water coolers are more simple to install than customer loops and might still get the job done

And they said aios should last at least 3 years

Please look at these charts for reference. Something like the Thermalright Phantom Spirit can handle a 200w load. That is a 14600k or lower or a 7900X or lower.
You can also see that the AIOs in that chart are barely perfing any better than the good air coolers in noise normalized performance. With the 13700k only being able to boost a few watts higher in noise normalized tests. That means very, very little performance increases.
Regarding on how wattage and cooling performance relate to one another, please read this: #general-chat message

#

I dont know if there's a way to differentiate between A die and M die kits though. I think it's a toss up what you get for any reasonably priced kits, im sure the really high speed kits are A die

#

If a 5600c32 kit is the cheapest, you can just set it to 6000c32-36-36-72 on either a or m die pretty easily, and likely much tighter timings with 5-10 min

#

Could likely get away with 6000c30-32-32-70 on either die too

north crescent
# shut crystal Did they test the cooling performance and temperature differences or were those ...

Cooling performance is dictated by how much wattage a component can use (Which depends on power limit of the component, temperatures of component and the power delivery system to the component, firmware/BIOS settings for the component, silicon lottery for automatic boosting/"overclocking"). If the component can use more power then that is because the cooler is performing better. In the first image there are plenty of air coolers and liquid coolers. All of which limit a 267w CPU to ~230w when a 38.2dBa noise limit is set, that also includes liquid coolers.

I am sorry Ive been asking about air coolers and water coolers so much. It’s just this is my first time ever building a pc so I’ve kept on researching since I don’t know how big the difference in performance between the water and air coolers is. I’m just stressed and keep getting worried about picking the wrong type of cooler and my pc being a total disaster.

Or maybe I just keep overthinking it all and that’s my problem.

well if you want to target 12gb you've got 192 and 384 as options

384 would be unrealistic

going up to 256 for 16gb would have made the card more expensive

would be cool if 12Gbit/24Gbit density existed for vram

considering we have 24Gbit D5 we might see 24Gbit G7
