Tiger was pretty decent though

[rancid juniper]

tigerlake legit a beta architecture

[modern imp]

nah

icelake was the beta for tiger

[tranquil pebble]

betalake

[rancid juniper]

lol

[nocturne flicker]

Can't even undervolt 10th gen mobile

[rancid juniper]

nor 11th

well some of them

[nocturne flicker]

None of them before 11th gen have any undervolting

Because Plundervolt

So they removed it

[elfin mural]

Plunder it like a true pirate

[nocturne flicker]

Meanwhile the 10750h is a portable heater

[elfin mural]

i love my 6800hs (7735hs as amd calls)

amd made igpu less versions too

7435hs

why not call it 6800fhs?

when mux exists, why even bother with no igpu

costs ig, but they don't even cost all that much less in comparison

[nocturne flicker]

Remind me, what is mux again? I haven't looked at laptops in depth in like, 3 years

[elfin mural]

multiplexer switch

it allows the laptop to switch to one gpu fully

you gain perf cuz there's less latency ofc

[nocturne flicker]

Mmm

[elfin mural]

also bonus efficiency if you need

[storm narwhal]

Wish I had mux switch

[elfin mural]

without it both gpus are awake

so it drains batt

[storm narwhal]

Me laptop to cheap for that too

[elfin mural]

windows 11

has caso tho

built into it

but it heavily depends on your hardware

zen 3+ or intel cpu with xe igp

[idle nexus]

uh, guys? https://www.techspot.com/news/103876-intel-laptop-cpus-crashing-company-remains-silent.html

[elfin mural]

[sinful blade]

Intel is continuously taking Ls and they’re like “don’t care, LOL”

[elfin mural]

pat gelsinger praying for god

[idle nexus]

I think deep down, this is Microsoft's fault somehow

I don't have any evidence of that but

lol jk

[nocturne flicker]

There is other stuff going on right now driving stock prices

[rancid juniper]

i see

[nocturne flicker]

The government is supposedly considering restrictions on Chinese chips, so the tech sector is largely sliding right now for stocks

[craggy shoal]

Nvidia having a moment

[elfin mural]

tbh i think for laptops it's paranoia

[nocturne flicker]

Intel is different because Intel has their fabs so they had a boost for their stocks

[elfin mural]

correlation = causation type of panic

[idle nexus]

lol ya could be they're just jumping on the opportunity to blame intel

[keen shale]

It's not paranoia, they have data

[elfin mural]

i mean laptops crashing

[idle nexus]

tom's hardware had a similar article published 11 hours ago tho

[keen shale]

Alderon Games claims laptops running on Raptor Lake chips are no exception.

[elfin mural]

hm ok

[keen shale]

"Most of the reported crashes occurred while running games – many using Unreal Engine 5 – but other CPU-intensive tasks like Handbrake or Cinebench are also affected."

[elfin mural]

if it's true, intel is even more doomed

knowing how slow OEMs are to release fixes

[keen shale]

Every company has their moment

[storm narwhal]

I mean even on the server side intel chips is consistently dying

[elfin mural]

intel will slump for a little during that limbo

[keen shale]

Of course, just like AMD's slump back in the day with Bulldozer lol

[elfin mural]

ya

[keen shale]

Honestly this is good, it will make Intel better

[elfin mural]

probably a couple years long at most

[keen shale]

Or it should, anyway

[idle nexus]

I've mostly lost interest & am trying to determine whether I should get K5 Pro Thermal putty for my memory or if UX Pro Ultra is worth the extra money

[elfin mural]

or so i hope

intel needs to improve

instead of bruteforcing

delays after delays

alder lake was a delay

14th gen was a delay

pushed back to 15th instead

[nocturne flicker]

Gonna need to start delaying the delays

[elfin mural]

lmao

[rancid juniper]

ngl its still wild that the PS4 still holding on, their cpu is like a modded fx iirc

[keen shale]

Xbox One used it too 😉

[rancid juniper]

yea just weaker heh

Xbox one x went all out with it

cpu still weak doe 😂

[craggy shoal]

I still hate that most games chose fidelity over framerate

[rancid juniper]

that is true

[amber raptor]

damn, server i almost inpulse bought sold for $125

[craggy shoal]

lol what kind of server are you getting for $125?

[craggy shoal]

ah, DDR3 era

[amber raptor]

yeah, 2010-2011ish.

old power edge R710

but for $125 to mess around with for home use? kinda hard to beat.

[craggy shoal]

I got a Beelink S12 Pro that I'm going to use as a server for my parents' company lol

It's not much but it should give me job security, as I'll basically be their CIO (actually, I'm their Technical Operations Manager, but I want to be a CIO by age 30 lol)

[velvet summit]

https://youtu.be/bLvqxwhZvQ8

[amber raptor]

i am but a lowly warranty writer for a dealership who happens to be trusted with a copy of the server rack keys...

[velvet summit]

the ceiling birds are singing

[amber raptor]

Had our UPS for our shop go down the other day, struck by lightning...

[craggy shoal]

We probably actually get paid about the same lol. I like not mentioning my wage when I mention my title because it makes me sound important lolll. I primarily just do dispatching, but I want to get my company to be more tech-dependent so I can continue to work with them

[craggy shoal]

Yeah that's never fun

[amber raptor]

yeah, half the business had to shut down, while i waited for someone to bring a spare from the main office.

oh and the spare? had a fried battery.

[craggy shoal]

bruhhh

[amber raptor]

but the battery was good in the one that got struck 🤷

just absolutely destroyed the surge protection in it.

[craggy shoal]

lol how recent was this?

[storm narwhal]

working exactly as expected

[amber raptor]

like 2 weeks ago?

[sinful blade]

Me playing on 30 fps with 60 FOV on d2

[storm narwhal]

not sure how the other one had a dead battery but the ups never screamed lmao

[velvet summit]

https://youtu.be/l-XydAgT8a0 WHAT

[rancid juniper]

remember when google stadia was a thing?

[velvet summit]

i just saw this

[storm narwhal]

THE EDF DEPLOYS

[amber raptor]

it was a spare they kept in a back office for reasons just like that.

[rancid juniper]

i'd actually get EDF6

i shouldve bought the bundle from humble

[craggy shoal]

I remember getting my first UPS and I didn't know they made a click noise. Scared the crap out of me when it first went online

[idle nexus]

remember when Google tried to make a facebook?

[rancid juniper]

was that google+ by any chance?

[idle nexus]

ya that lol

[amber raptor]

and it wasnt truly dead, would hold voltage, just couldnt supply current, dead cell.

[velvet summit]

never heard a contactor before smh

[rancid juniper]

lmao i remember when i made posts that would recieve lots of likes/comments, i was getting a high

i think it was the dragon ball communities

[idle nexus]

you're like a celebrity

[amber raptor]

i had to inform an AirBNB host that they had one freaking tf out on one of their split systems on the roof over our room.

[rancid juniper]

and then google closed it just like the rest of their projects

[idle nexus]

A/C units have them

[amber raptor]

Clicking 60 time a second every time it called for cool.

[idle nexus]

that's how the thermostat tells it to do cooling

[velvet summit]

tbf
thermostat ususally triggers a relay which then triggers the contactor

[storm narwhal]

60 cpm

[amber raptor]

and depending on how new of a unit it might have multiple logic boards before that call for cool ever even makes it to the contactor.

[velvet summit]

true

[amber raptor]

(i also have passing knowlege of HVAC... Thanks dad...)

[idle nexus]

well, just saying there's likely one in your house you can go listen to if you're curious lol

[storm narwhal]

he do be hvac certified

[amber raptor]

i do not be. actually.

I do hold a small handful of marine engine certs tho 😂

[velvet summit]

i want the cert just to be able to buy refrigerants lmao

make a personal chiller

[amber raptor]

Phase change CPU cooling inbound.

will be required by 2032 for intel systems.

[elfin mural]

[velvet summit]

speaking of that, i think it was the hacksmith? or somebody did a propane cooled pc

then lit the propane on fire

fire cooled pc

[amber raptor]

pretty common refrigerant oddly.

[idle nexus]

https://ww2.epatest.com/epa-section-608/

always with the embed fails wth

[amber raptor]

Propane, Ammonia, Butane could theoretically be used im pretty sure, but i wouldnt...

[rancid juniper]

that one matchstick:

[idle nexus]

lol uh

[amber raptor]

Honestly, im more scared of ammonia cooling than propane.

Anhydrous is scary stuff.

[idle nexus]

having a chiller would be awesome tho

I know a dude who basically took a portable AC apart & bent the coils in a way that he could get them into a cooler

[velvet summit]

https://youtu.be/jsTcP_vTZuw also i found the video

[idle nexus]

(partially)

then just dropped a radiator in there with some chemical I forget

[velvet summit]

antifreeze

[amber raptor]

you can buy them.

[idle nexus]

so the coils got cold, cooled the liquid, then cooled the radiator

[amber raptor]

Dometic sells refrigerated coolers.

[velvet summit]

also linus did that as well

tbh quite a few people have

[idle nexus]

is the coolant in there tho or you need to charge it? what about compressor, condensor, & all that

[velvet summit]

relatively speaking

[idle nexus]

I'd love to do it but it's way too humid here

could get hecked very quick

[amber raptor]

https://www.dometic.com/en-us/outdoor/coolers/electric-coolers/cfx2-45-electric-cooler-372187

[velvet summit]

purge with nitrogen

[idle nexus]

I mean ya that's heckin awesome but also $800 lol

[amber raptor]

there are smaller cheaper ones.

first link.

[idle nexus]

I think Aquarium chiller kinda works too

[velvet summit]

i mean, you can get a used old window ac unit for fairly cheap usually?

[idle nexus]

I've done that

[amber raptor]

hell you can buy a small new one for less than $100 most of the time.

[idle nexus]

the only problem I had was if the rad is too close to the A/C it ends up dripping water

[velvet summit]

i probably wouldnt want to buy a window ac unit just to use it for this at least

[amber raptor]

yeah... the biggest problem trying to cool below ambient is always condensation and energy costs.

[rancid juniper]

NO WAY

[nocturne flicker]

Woah

That has to have been illegally acquired info

[rancid juniper]

they have to be stopped

[nocturne flicker]

Call the FBI to storm their home and seize their PC

[idle nexus]

super rigged up but worked lol

super crappy rad too lol

I was surprised it ripped cuz those are Delta fans

thought they'd move the air quick enough but ig not

[storm narwhal]

gaht DAMN that's a spicy leak

you sure it's a good idea to share it here?

[rancid juniper]

gotta do it for the bit

[hot pumice]

just dump cold end into some glycoly type fluid

ezpz subzero chiller

[craggy shoal]

goofy ahh radiator

[rough zinc]

Nope I haven’t, it looks interesting

[weak cedar]

So I learned something about 4k and 4k movies it's much smaller then you will realize

[sinful blade]

Has anyone watched the last season of the boys yet?

Because that last episode holy fudge on a barrel of whatthehell

[proud jackal]

Yep

We must protect kimiko

[weak cedar]

55in tv

[proud jackal]

Two more years till last season

[sinful blade]

Worth the wait tho

The fist half of the season was so meh

THEN THE LAST EPISODE???

[storm narwhal]

If they simply had a super destroyer and dropped a 380mm stratagem it would be all over

(I have no idea what happened in the last episode)

[north crescent]

Usually like 60Mbps if it's not streamed iirc

Prolly 20Mbps or less if streamed

[sinful blade]

Think of a baking show
Very mundane
But the last episode of the season they blow all the cakes up with bazookas

[weak cedar]

I meant screen size 😅

I have been buying blue ray and 4k videos

[nocturne flicker]

Mmm

Gaming PC

https://www.ebay.com/itm/225031931523

[sinful blade]

[nocturne flicker]

It doesn't have an IO plate either

Highest quality PC

[weak cedar]

New trend

[nocturne flicker]

It doesn't have any fans besides the cooler

"Extremely Quiet Even When Under Stress"

[proud jackal]

That pcb bend

[weak cedar]

It's modern

[nocturne flicker]

This is a tech deal if I've ever seen one

3 sticks of ram

This is surely the most PC ever

[young matrix]

Why's it bent

[grave hatch]

2600 AUD build im gonna buy october can someone build one?

[rough zinc]

Have you seen Kefi’s HVAC cooling loop?

The thing is insane

RAM so cold he needs a heat gun to fix the cold bug lmaooo

[obsidian berry]

Is that pc connected to the ac?

[gilded kraken]

it looks like one of the rads is in the AC vent

that looks super wonk

[obsidian berry]

Interesting

[pseudo raven]

well i caved

but after rakuten cashback its pretty much $170

[tranquil pebble]

pain

[tranquil pebble]

bruh only a fool would pay that much for that trash

[mortal grail]

We do not discuss dis man here

Pls

[opaque sedge]

So in cyberpunk i get a pretty significant fps drop in crowded areas and during calls from npcs that normal?

[opaque sedge]

For example in not so crowded areas maybe in a closed space with enemies i get almost 145fps

But with normal crowds its around 100-110

And in heavy crowds with npc phone calls drops to almost 80

[opaque sedge]

Did… you stab a micro sd card

[tranquil pebble]

not my pic just found it funny

[opaque sedge]

Oh ok

[tranquil pebble]

I know better than to do that lol

[opaque sedge]

Micro sd reminds me

Is making a m2 nvme into a external drive a good idea or nah

[tranquil pebble]

yes it is

[tranquil pebble]

I did that and its like a flash drive that doesn't suck

[icy ore]

[tranquil pebble]

man this world is crazy

[opaque sedge]

Is there a way to get cyberpunk to not stutter? The game stutters a lot

[velvet summit]

https://fixvx.com/SwiftOnSecurity/status/1814212729118285962

[velvet summit]

Frame limiting ig

[elfin mural]

frame limiting is a reliable way

[icy ore]

https://tenor.com/view/cyberpunk-cyberpunk-anime-david-cyberpunk-edgerunners-tears-gif-26728517

[opaque sedge]

Thru adrenaline or vsync in cyberpunk?

[velvet summit]

either one should work tbh

you can try both and see if either one works better

[blazing estuary]

is it bad to buy used macbooks

or do they hold up fairly well

[tranquil pebble]

frame limit to whatever fps your pc can consistently do

Ive seen stutters at 200 fps before, and when I capped to 144 it went away

not on Cyberpunk ofc but same idea

[sinful blade]

My landlord really wants us out

after 4 years, she suddenly changed us to a month to month lease instead of yearly
Right after we’ve had some problems with her

[tranquil pebble]

last time I had that happen to me I didnt even try to fight it, I just found another place and moved there. Ended up being in a nicer apartment as a result

didnt want or need to deal with that bullcrap

just gotta get someone with a truck is all

but yes it does make it harder

[sinful blade]

We have a van

But uh
We literally had to build our own bridge to get across the steps to get inside because they wouldn’t help us

[tranquil pebble]

yeah youre gonna want to move out before anything serious happens IMO. A bad landlord is no good.

ofc thats assuming it is feasible to do so

[sinful blade]

We’re starting to look

[tranquil pebble]

good luck, hope you find something

[mental yoke]

HELL YEHH!!!

[opaque sedge]

Should i use upscaling like xess or fsr 2.1 on cyberpunk or nah?

[storm narwhal]

Fsr

You got an xtx haha

[opaque sedge]

Xt

[sinful blade]

Whatchu get

[storm narwhal]

Or I guess, you could try both

[opaque sedge]

I gave up on the xtx

[storm narwhal]

Oh rip

Oh well

I say try both

[opaque sedge]

Rip indeed

It’s probably gone by now

[storm narwhal]

Probably

[opaque sedge]

Got the microcenter protection plan tho

[storm narwhal]

Eh

[opaque sedge]

My first xt gonked out a bit

[storm narwhal]

Don't need it tbh-

[opaque sedge]

So didn’t want to take chances with this one

[storm narwhal]

Simple return or RMA would be just fine

[gentle canyon]

Was that a open box

[opaque sedge]

No brand new

Not kidding

[gentle canyon]

That’s crazy

[opaque sedge]

Meh who knows, amds pretty unreliable with drivers and if the gpu becomes unstable in the next two years they’ll apparently give me a full refund and ofc if it doesn’t just have to kiss my 80 bucks bye

[devout forum]

I'm assuming that the 7900 XTX wouldn't reliably run on something like a 750 without undervolting/power limiting

[opaque sedge]

Nope but with an am5 ryzen cpu could run on 850w probably

Intel… gotta go 1000

[devout forum]

7600X?

or you'd absolutely have to go 7800X3D

[opaque sedge]

Whats the tdp on that?

[mental yoke]

My new i9-13900k

😈

[devout forum]

105

you can go eco mode for 65w TDP

doubt you'd lose much

[mental yoke]

U can have my i7-12700kf lol

I have a mix of older and newer computer components

[opaque sedge]

At a glance sounds like its gonna be fine, but would ask someone like felix tho

[devout forum]

Alright I'll take it lel

[opaque sedge]

I was told that xtx would be fine with a 7800x3d and a 850w psu tho

[mental yoke]

Lol ok

I don’t really need this 1050w psu and this rx 6600

[devout forum]

Focus GX 850W PCIe5 is Tier A on PSU database

[mental yoke]

They arent really being used for anything

This 64gb ram kit isnt being used much anymore either

[devout forum]

so if any of them can do it it'd be that

[mental yoke]

Its DDR4 btw

[devout forum]

Why do you use a 1050 PSU with a 6600???

[mental yoke]

I dont

[devout forum]

oh

[mental yoke]

I owned a 4090 before

[devout forum]

I was about to say

[mental yoke]

Then recently got rid of it

[devout forum]

That'd be gross overkill

[mental yoke]

I dont really need this Ryzen 5 7600 anymore…

[devout forum]

You can just build a rig out of those and sell it

[mental yoke]

Dont need to

Whats the point

[devout forum]

ngl during the big GPU shortage I'm sure someone would've paid a month's wage for a PC like that

Is my cpu util supposed to be this high in cyberpunk?

[keen shale]

It's fine

[craggy shoal]

Bro just stop worrying lol. If it's getting the framerate you want, just enjoy it

[opaque sedge]

Its stuttering like crazy

[craggy shoal]

Limit the framerate

[opaque sedge]

Every ten secs its stutterfest

[opaque sedge]

Radeon frame rate limit is strange, theres a baseline and a limit

[craggy shoal]

Don't use AMD's frame limiter lol

[opaque sedge]

What do i use then

[craggy shoal]

The game's

bruh

The other option

[opaque sedge]

Only has 165 and 82

[craggy shoal]

Do 82

[opaque sedge]

And 55 and 41

[craggy shoal]

Actually, just turn off Chill and see what happens

[opaque sedge]

Chill is off

Also when i turn on v sync the cursor moves strangely

theo_moves

yeah I helped my gf move last week and now she's practically in a sauna (we don't know why but her apartment sits at 70-78% humidity)

When you see it

[opaque sedge]

Yh this ain’t supposed yo happen the gpu util is also low, did a benchmark test in the game and the gpu util easily goes up to 99-100

I’m gonna try restarting

[craggy shoal]

Honestly I'd try lowering the settings and framerate just to see how low you can get in utilization

I mean Cyberpunk is a heavy game but You shouldn't have issue with your specs (iirc as to what your specs are)

What's your CPU again?

[opaque sedge]

7800x3d

[craggy shoal]

I mean yeah maybe there'd be issues at the maxed settings (emphasis on maybe)

[keen shale]

Wasn't there a BIOS update for those CPU's for stuttering? might be worth a look to update the AGESA.

[opaque sedge]

Nope not maxed fully I optimized it a bit based on digital foundry’s rec

[craggy shoal]

Man I need to update my BIOS but we've had so many incidents in my area that make me worried that my power might go out 💀

[opaque sedge]

Could it be this setting?

[keen shale]

Ya, not worth the risk if you're not having issues. I should update mine too but too lazy

[opaque sedge]

Its set to auto

[craggy shoal]

I need a good UPS before I update my BIOS

[keen shale]

Even a UPS may not last long enough to fully update a BIOS, some of em are slow

[craggy shoal]

Well I mean in the case of a power outage. Like updating and then the power goes out mid-update. At least there's a better chance of my computer not dying

[opaque sedge]

Yup the gpu util is finally above 90 now

[keen shale]

True, need a big VA UPS for that

[opaque sedge]

Cpu util is still high af tho

70-80%

[opaque sedge]

Wait can that gonk out your system or smth?

[keen shale]

Yes, if power goes out during BIOS flash, things can happen

[opaque sedge]

Oh boy

Then wouldn’t it be more worth it to take it to a shop?

Like microcenter perhaps

[craggy shoal]

If you update the BIOS and your computer loses power mid-update, yeah it can brick your motherboard (but just the motherboard, rather than the whole computer)

That's why Gigabyte has a dual-BIOS system on most of their motherboards, but some people don't find it reliable

[opaque sedge]

An excuse to get that sleek looking asrock board perhaps 👀

Jk

The asus tuf mobo seems to be decent

Wait a minute

Could my issue be a ram issue

[craggy shoal]

Maybe

[keen shale]

I have the X670 TUF gaming wifi

[craggy shoal]

What's the utilization on your RAM?

[opaque sedge]

Withe with the expo overclock?

[craggy shoal]

I mean it's possible that it's just not enough memory lol (but that's in my experience. I don't mess with overclocking much)

[opaque sedge]

12 gigabytes

[craggy shoal]

ahhhh there's the issue

[opaque sedge]

So what do i do?

[craggy shoal]

pull up Task Manager and check the memory utilization while in Cyberpunk

And if it's at like 90-100% utilization, you'll need more memory

7800X3D and a 7900 XT(X?) but only 12GB of RAM

[opaque sedge]

Says 4.2k mb

[craggy shoal]

Okay but what's the utilization?

[opaque sedge]

Oh nah my ram is 32gb

[craggy shoal]

bruh

[opaque sedge]

But Adrenalin says its using 12gigs

[craggy shoal]

Why'd you say 12 lol

[opaque sedge]

Cuz u asked the ram util bruh

[keen shale]

Are you reading VRAM and not system ram?

[opaque sedge]

System mem util

[craggy shoal]

Oh I asked for utilization on your RAM, not how much RAM was being used by the game lol

I read "12 GB" as in that's how much is in your system

lmao

[opaque sedge]

interesting just made that clip and pasted it here

didn't have to go through a bunch of folders

What do you guys think of occt?

Thinking of using it to test my ram

[safe cape]

Ya I was trying to find a funny gif for you posting that

[dusk knot]

Let's...what are we talking about today...

Ah yes... computers

[keen shale]

What else would we be talking about?

How about a full size truck getting 32+ MPG?

[rancid juniper]

Undervolted the 13600k as low as 1.12v (142w max on cinebench r23)

[mental yoke]

WORLDWIDE TECH OUTAGE IS HAPPENING

[keen shale]

It's been happening for hours now

Windows go boom

[mental yoke]

I KNOW

IVE BEEN KNOWN

[rancid juniper]

wait wtf is going on?

[mental yoke]

look it up

[keen shale]

Airports down, millions of PC's borked

Windows go Boom

[mental yoke]

RIP windows

[rancid juniper]

dayum tf???

[mental yoke]

And I was just about to setup my new pc..

[rancid juniper]

was it due to a windows update or???

[keen shale]

It doesn't affect home users

[mental yoke]

Oh it doesn’t?

[keen shale]

Only Bitlocker and some other software

[rancid juniper]

never used bitlocker

[mental yoke]

Good job on you for saying that

I was worried

[keen shale]

Bitlocker and Cloudstrike?

Lemme check

[rancid juniper]

nope

[keen shale]

Crowdstrike

Their driver made Windows bork

[rancid juniper]

this is why you shouldn't stay stuck with like one big service

wild

and i dont think this is the first time something like this happened

[keen shale]

Started at Midnight tonight when they pushed an update

https://services.northwestern.edu/TDClient/30/Portal/KB/ArticleDet?ID=2642

[rancid juniper]

An intern did it

[keen shale]

Probably unpaid

[velvet summit]

2 dollars an hour

(+ tips)

[rancid juniper]

XD

Man I wish that was real

Angry unpaid intern borks update to mess with corporation

Involuntarily wrecks many others in the process

[keen shale]

Stranger things have happened, like hacked IOT devices taking down the internet for a day

[rancid juniper]

Yea I keep hearing a lot of cyber security vulnerabilities this month

[keen shale]

Oh, this one was years ago

The one I was thinking of

[rancid juniper]

Oh

[mental yoke]

Doing anything on the iPad is like a stopgap until you get to your computer.

Which I tend to bring my laptop with me.

[dusk knot]

[sinful blade]

actually

[sinful blade]

It’s worth the fat

I love the stuff

[mental yoke]

Same thing with a lot of apps like Tableau, Microsoft 365 suite,

Drawing pads

[mental yoke]

Oh for real?

Nice.

I would say I would get one but I’m good with my MacBook

I don’t need the touch screen really like o think I do

I do like to use my iPad for reading books. I tried to use it as a writing notebook and it didn’t feel natural.

Almost looks like handwriting is worse than if I wrote on paper.

[topaz tusk]

Anyone know of any good custom Android ROMs that currently work with the Samsung Galaxy A54 5G?

[velvet summit]

dinner

[tranquil pebble]

as far as I can tell there is not any

[proud jackal]

[topaz tusk]

Dang it. 🤣

[tranquil pebble]

non flagship phones dont get much attention

[topaz tusk]

Well... I've tried finding a ROM for the S23 (Plus or Ultra. Idr) and I can't find one for that either. Wasn't that one of the flagships of last gen?

[tranquil pebble]

Samsung Knox has probably made it a pain to do ig

[topaz tusk]

Fair point.

I've seen recently that it's a real pain in the butt to do anything with One UI 12 and over for Samsung devices as well.

[tranquil pebble]

OnePlus is easier to get roms for

[topaz tusk]

Companies just making it harder and harder for us to make them not track us. 😂

[topaz tusk]

Is there a specific reason for that? Like the architecture?

[tranquil pebble]

Well for one thing, the bootloader is unlockable without any hacks

phones like this are sometimes called dev friendly phones

[topaz tusk]

Ah

Maybe I should get one as my next phone then.

[tranquil pebble]

Pixel phones often get roms too

[topaz tusk]

Too many ROMs if you ask me. 🤣

[tranquil pebble]

regardless of phone, installing a rom generally voids warranty

[topaz tusk]

Those have been in the back of my mind for a while but they're just so stinking expensive.

[topaz tusk]

Yea. Looked at my carrier's warranty on that.

But honestly I'm tech savvy enough that I could probably fix most anything that goes wrong with a phone.

[tranquil pebble]

So if you want to do roms Id say get a cheap used previous gen flagship

[topaz tusk]

K. I've been looking on Ebay lately for just anything but I'll keep flagships in mind.

What ssd I should get fr my ps5 1tb should be enough any advice?

[keen shale]

How much do you want to spend?

[little steppe]

Well 75$-150 max and if it’s actually worth it cause after all it’s ps5(toaster pro max)

[worthy meteor]

Looking for 1tb I assume?

[little steppe]

Yh

I said it above

[keen shale]

You could go 2 TB in that price range

1 TB doesn't take long to fill

[little steppe]

Well I just worry the next cod will be like 1tb that’s why😂😂

[keen shale]

https://www.amazon.com/SK-hynix-Platinum-Internal-Compact/dp/B09QVD9V7R/ref=sr_1_9?keywords=2TB+NVME

I rather save money cause I want to get the 560hd too

[keen shale]

[worthy meteor]

Cheapest decent enough 1tb drive I see is
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BNBJD7XR

I found a Hynix 1 TB P41 for $80 but not sure the deal applies to everyone

[little steppe]

How do I know that won’t melt the ps5 that speeds sounds wild

[worthy meteor]

wdym? the standard should be around 7000/7000

[little steppe]

I can’t buy that can’t be sent to me

[worthy meteor]

They recomend 5500mb/s+

the e16 tier drives are around 5000/5000

e18 drives around 7000/7000

[little steppe]

How high can it get lol I ain’t a expert

[little steppe]

I can get that tho look solid

[rancid juniper]

ok after a few oc tweaks in bios i managed to hit 5.2ghz pcore / 4.2ghz ecore @ 1.110v (r23 stress test stable)

not too bad

[worthy meteor]

That drive is somewhere between usable and good, depending on the variant, but all variants would be fine for ps5

[north crescent]

Power consumption and heat output of the SSD isn't high enough to be of concern.

[little steppe]

Damm I am really playing on a airplane

[rancid juniper]

yesterday my nvme peaked at like 90c

or was it 85c?

it was a hot day

[little steppe]

Well whenever I play wz the ps5 is like a airplane the fan is going nuts and it’s clean no dust or anything

[keen shale]

The NVME drive has nothing to do with that lol

[little steppe]

Well I was just making sure yk

[keen shale]

Yup!

[long pier]

Guys

I got a Corsair 570x as a case

[keen shale]

With the proprietary HP motherboard we were talking about? Possibly

[long pier]

I was just gonna buy a new motherboard and keep the i7

But I take donations so

Anyone who wanna give me that mb slide thru

[north crescent]

Power consumption and thus heat output of the SoC (CPU/GPU/etc) is a lot more than what storage drives take. SSD is almost like in the rounding error territory for heat output of the entire console. Also worth noting that fan speed isn't the most indicative of component temperature.

[little steppe]

Well sometimes I get a warning notification that it’s getting hot and it needs a min to cool down it happens rarely but it does happen sometimes

Or only supports Super Fast Charging 2.0?

[idle nexus]

make sure to get a box from way in the back. Sometimes they end up getting thawed then refrozen & the bread gets all hard & ruins the experience lol

[sweet phoenix]

id grab this one instead https://pcpartpicker.com/product/VhbTwP/hp-fx900-pro-1-tb-m2-2280-nvme-solid-state-drive-4a3u0aaabb

lil bit cheaper and in the same ballpark of performance

right alongside gm7000, m480 pro, 980 pro and all those other ones i dont feel like listing

[velvet summit]

is samsung's super fast charging just usb pd? if so, then yes

[lavish stag]

Yes

I think so

Thank you

[idle nexus]

so half are affected? lol

[rancid juniper]

very curious to see what crytek has in store with their updated engine

[idle nexus]

crytek sounds like a good new name for Intel lately

[rancid juniper]

XD

[sweet phoenix]

i learned a bit more tdy

it has something to do with the oxidation of the cpus i guess?

so it's not power limit related

not entirely, anyways

[mighty hazel]

It’s the algorithm. Pumping too much voltage

To boost the cores

Causes degradation. Then the voltage isn’t enough, so it crashes

[sweet phoenix]

that is what was thought

but there is more to it

watch gns latest video on it

lmao

[idle nexus]

lol $100 off? get the heck out of here

[sweet phoenix]

knowing intel?

[idle nexus]

$500 off we'll talk

[nocturne flicker]

16 P core i9 that doesn't kill itself wen

[sweet phoenix]

$100

if were lucky

[idle nexus]

& Intell will probably get sued if we're not lol

[sweet phoenix]

true

[idle nexus]

I mean it seems like a sound argument to me that if using the CPU at its advertised speeds breaks it & the only way to mitigate that is to run it below its advertised speeds, ya got kinda hecked

if Intel can convince everyone it's motherboard manufacturers' fault I think that still doesn't fly but if the issue is with the manufacturing of the CPU itself that's gotta fall on Intel or TSMC I'd think

or whoever makes the CPUs

& they're gonna point in a circle like Ford & Firestone

[nocturne flicker]

How much does Intel purchase from TSMC?

[keen shale]

INtel Fabs make the CPU's. SPecifically the fabs in Oregon

[idle nexus]

oh nice then Intel screwed Intel lol

[keen shale]

yes

TSMC only makes the ARC gpu

To get more detailed, fabs make the dies, and I belive they are packaged (die on board) in Malaysia or Vietnam

[idle nexus]

I mean, call me crazy, but when Intel charges you $700 for a CPU & convinces you to pay that based on it meeting certain performance metrics Intel establishes, & it fails to meet the metrics, a $100 discount on a new one is a slap in the face lol

[nocturne flicker]

The fabs are technically a seperate company iirc, so Intel A screwed Intel B

[keen shale]

I worked at the Fabs in Hillsboro, OR. As far as I know, they are not. My Badge was Intel through and through

[dark plume]

Hello

[keen shale]

Although I don't know the details for sure

We did chemical resistant coatings in the fabs, machine areas and chemical containment areas

[dark plume]

That is why I might go to AMD

[idle nexus]

I mean, if there are millions of broken CPUs, I'd think it has to be a design defect

[dark plume]

Theres good deals at microcenter

[dark plume]

mhm

[keen shale]

Mobile as well as desktop cpu's from what I've been reading

[idle nexus]

I have a 13900KS but didn't use it in my daily because tuning daily stable memory is such a mission lol

[idle nexus]

ya I saw a thing about laptop CPUs being questionable

[nocturne flicker]

https://www.extremetech.com/computing/intel-to-spin-off-its-manufacturing-groups-into-a-separate-business

Apparently it is an Intel business within Intel

[keen shale]

INteresting, looks like that started Q1 of this year

And they'll start selling out work TSMC style by 2025

Might be a bit delayed now though after this debacle........

[idle nexus]

I wonder if Intel will keep fighting & splitting hairs or just give up & issue recalls lol

[keen shale]

They gotta fix the problem before they can recall things

"the business units will have to start paying to expedite certain wafers through the fabs," Maybe expediting wasn't such a great idea?

IDK, need to watch the GN video to see exactly what and where the problem is. I assume it's with the die since the mobile chips don't have heatspreaders

[rancid juniper]

so, did intel pull a pentium 4 moment or a amd bulldozer one?

[keen shale]

Don't know yet how deep this rabbit hole goes

[rancid juniper]

its gonna get crazier from here ig

[keen shale]

Watching GN right now.

Oh wow, this is literally atomic level deposition oxidation in the transistor gates

[rancid juniper]

[idle nexus]

the vias

[rancid juniper]

that doesn't sound good does it?

[idle nexus]

I didn't know vias existed until like 45 minutes ago

if I had to draw one I still wouldn't know what to do but they exist

[nocturne flicker]

Degredation via the vias

[idle nexus]

copper intrusion into the continuum transfunctioner or something

[keen shale]

Yeah, during the deposition of the nitride layer

[nocturne flicker]

Uh, gotta reverse the polarity of the neutron flow

[keen shale]

Maximize the Flux Capacitor!!

[idle nexus]

13th gen did always seem pretty wild tho

I think it would throw like 1.55v+ to get 6.0ghz

[keen shale]

This doesn't have anything to do with performance or the voltages, this is a manufacturing defect. Well, higher voltages accelerated the condition but it's not the root cause

[rancid juniper]

a whole defect is wild tho

[idle nexus]

can't be perfect all the time

[keen shale]

Nothing is 100% certain though until Intel says something or someone has 100% definitive proof.

[idle nexus]

but what's important here is what I tell my son, if you screw up, own it

[keen shale]

HOly crap, GN mentioned this issue can cause Anti-Cheat bans??

[idle nexus]

lol ya

[rancid juniper]

WTF!?!?!?!?!?

[nocturne flicker]

If you screw it up gaslight everyone listening into thinking it is their fault

[rancid juniper]

they also mention that others claim it affects 13600K, et. al.

[misty sparrow]

we talking about intel stuff being defective?

[keen shale]

Yes

[misty sparrow]

huh

[rancid juniper]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[misty sparrow]

[keen shale]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTeubeCIwRw

[misty sparrow]

oxidation claims

okay what

[idle nexus]

I'm still on this

[keen shale]

During the deposition phase where metal is "dropped" onto the CPU die, it's not done properly and oxidizes

[idle nexus]

so did they change the manufacturing process at some point?

[keen shale]

These are questions Intel needs to answer

[chrome mirage]

Some people stole my brother's phone from the beach and my car group tracked down their truck in 20 minutes and I know their address

[idle nexus]

there can only be so many reasons why Intel remains silent here

[idle nexus]

call the police

[rancid juniper]

intel can get sued for that right?

or face heavy fines?

[chrome mirage]

Already been done

[keen shale]

Potentially, it's why they haven't answered yet, they're probably evaluating legal possibilities and resolutions

[rancid juniper]

OOF

[chrome mirage]

Some really sketchy guys covered in cuts and scars

[idle nexus]

they better handle this well or they'll really damage their reputation for the foreseeable future

so i see no problems with my chip thus far

[keen shale]

Hmm, failure rate seems to be only 10-25% currently

[rancid juniper]

oh ok

i thought it was something like 50%

still bad tho

[idle nexus]

UCC Article 2 come help us plz

actually that'd be the place to look lol

[keen shale]

Wow, some large SI's are rejecting 12% of the CPU's they get due to testing failures

[idle nexus]

heck Intel's warranty on 13900KS is 36 pages

gonna go grab a Snickers

[keen shale]

Well, you and me aren't going to get anything done about this. It's the SI's, server farms, and large Hedge Fund companies, etc that are going to get results. He dropped a name but I don't remember it

They're the ones with weight pushing this issue behind the scenes

[rancid juniper]

ggood legal paper speedrun any%

[rancid juniper]

It would be funny if Intel was linked with the outage of crowdstrike

[mental yoke]

No

[sinful blade]

Hey xern

[mental yoke]

Hello roomba

[sinful blade]

If I win my court case for ss
I may get $11k in backpay
Should I buy a 4090 build or do something more modest
Like a 2080ti

[idle nexus]

lol not ready yet anyway

2080ti or 4090?

[sinful blade]

This is after bills***

[idle nexus]

that's a heck of a choice difference

[sinful blade]

After bills/debt I’ll probably have like $6k left

[elfin mural]

just spend 1k on like

[sinful blade]

This is assuming I win
If I don’t
I try again

[elfin mural]

a modest am5 build

if you win the case

[lone mango]

4090 will fail within a year

Watch

[mental yoke]

Nothing ever lasts forever ☹️

[lone mango]

Highest you should go is 4080 but honestly you might not even need something that cracked

[lone mango]

[sinful blade]

I ain’t touching intel
So I would gladly

[idle nexus]

I haven't killed my 4090 yet lol

[lone mango]

Nothing too crazy and just pocket the rest

[sinful blade]

How about this
If you guys can build me the best possible cost/performance $1k build, I’ll buy whoever’s the best if I win

[idle nexus]

The most I've run thru my 4090 is 746w lol

[sinful blade]

that’s it, time to play destiny 2 with a 4090

[idle nexus]

& all it got me was 23rd out of 733 on GPUpi

[sinful blade]

The only thing I’m comfortable overclocking is my pizza rolls in the microwaves

[elfin mural]

learning from trying to give my friend pc parts reccs

[sinful blade]

or setting my ram to the correct frequency

[elfin mural]

i think i have to stop trying to explain what means what

what does what

just give em what they ask

some people don't care to know deeper at all

so they want answers

not explanations

FRICKKKKKKKKKKKKK

[sinful blade]

I had to recently explain the difference between a cpu and gpu to an 80 year old man @elfin mural

I feel your pain

[lone mango]

I get the trolling but that would be the biggest waste of money ever

[elfin mural]

the pain is

[lone mango]

[elfin mural]

me explaining means im overcomplicating things

because they had one thing in mind

"give me parts that would last me 5 years"

[sinful blade]

Yeah haha I definitely wouldn’t just play destiny 2 on a 4090 lol
It’s not like I have a crippling addiction to it or somethin stupid

[lone mango]

Nah fr

[elfin mural]

i said get 7700xt

they then say

"vram i don't need?"

at that point i knew i had no way to sway their opinion away from the 4060ti
