Valid.
Whoever wrote that spec sheet doesn't really know hardware
Before my current pc at work I've only tested minspec
Typical dev L
Nah someone's gotta test minspec lol
Ah true
Up until my Current test bench the best CPU I've had at work is the 5600g.
And that's not in a gaming PC.
Actually the jump to 4080S might be more like 2.5x
Insane jump
Oh
With a 5500 or 9700k btw

Both of which are cpu bottlenecking this gpu
No upgrades to my PCs at home until a biiiggg jump.
Also insane to me
i will build one 
They rec the a750 for raster but not rt
A750 should be around 3060/4060 perf in rt
If they have drivers it should be quite relative
I just want splitgate 2
no one playing splitgate 1 ?
The Devs made it as a class project, it got to big so they hired more people and are building it up from the ground up.
In Splitgate 2, each faction has its own strengths and playstyle, which players are free to explore and discover. Switch between factions, mix and match factions when you team up with your friends, and find the one that fits how you want to frag.
Watch Splitgate 2 live for the first time. August 14 @ 12PM PT / 3PM ET.
game died way too early
😩
32°C is nuts after what I've been dealing with

Turbo Dismount 2 is a comedy physics racing sandbox with Mr. Dismount and his friends. It is the officially ambitious sequel to the wildly popular, immensely successful, world-renowned entertainment juggernaut - Turbo Dismount.
UV?
Under volt
Yeah
But instead of offset I did adaptive in my BIOS. That guy in that video said to do "negative 100mV" so that's what I did lol
Yea adaptive is the way to go, it doesn't lock into one voltage but goes higher when it needs to
This is also after updating my BIOS, where I couldn't do -100mV before in offset
So when you go idle it will use significantly less voltage
That's why updates are crucial
Still at 1.3V though :/ (idle)
Huh?
HUH?
What's your power plan?
I suggest keeping it at balanced
High performance is meaningless
That minimum is because I was using "Power saver" just bth
I switched it back to Balanced just for the screenshot
been long enough
You got it, daddy benchmarker (I shouldn't say that even as a joke because you're probably underaged 💀)
Fr we back!!!
Lmfao
tbh, it just looks like new content for turbo dismount 1, like nothing really new new tbh
I just realized bruh. So Ryzen has been around for nearly a decade, but the X600 CPUs are still using 6c/12t (and same with other skus and how many cores/threads they each use)
bruh
We're really getting the same CPU every year but it just performs a little better
Turbo Dismount Expansion Pack
So you're thinking they are about to pull an Intel?
Because that's what they did during AMD's falloff period before ryzen
I mean they could if they wanted to. They were originally religious to "MAWR CORES" when they first released
Real
I feel they might pull an Intel if they decide to unlock their CPUs more and also add even more cores
That is true, until Intel gets themselves together maybe AMD would consider that
Also shame on them for not producing more ryzen 3s/athlons to the desktop market
atp we'll all just start using ARM 💀
Only problem with arm is definitely upgradability
"Is ARM for GAMING GOOD in 2025?" <--- YouTube titles next year probably
Oh for sure
I mean unless we get a socketable version of Apple's M3 chip (more than likely some other company who would do it)
Would be dope
An arm based motherboard with swappable arm chips for a specific socket
Idk though. I'd like to see someone hack an M3 MacBook to have a GPU and run Windows just to play some games. I want to see what that CPU would do lol
🤔
That would be the ultimate Intel killer tbh 💀
Nah but it would let Intel focus on graphics a lot more
Honestly besides Intel's CPU division fumbling at the moment, I really hope their GPU side of things gets better and extra competitive
bruh same
Not a lot of people are rocking an arc card, but I would love to try one soon
Bruh I'd love to own one someday tbh
Battlemage
Bruh it better get good
Yep
I love it when my Bazzite installation just suddenly doesn't want to go into Desktop mode 🫠
Well, I was just able to get a full refund for shipping in Amazon
Not sure I can talk about this here 😅 cause it's Newegg server...
Hahaha okay so I got the PC adapter for the PSVR 2
ope
At first I paid 20$ for shipping
WHAT
Now I just need to wait for the delivery to be completed and then I'll get it for free.. I saved it in case they'd say I was lying
how did i not know she had cancer
Ha ok
oh i wasnt responding to you
I thought
lmao
Yeah I just figured
It was amazon.de so...
Should make sense
It's not available in amazon.com for me
For everyone I think
:/
ok motor, as i said arm is cooked
:o WHAT
ARM is a great computer architecture with some great security features. In this video we talk about TikTag, a new attack that shows how one can use speculative execution to see the future.

Can't recall a single good impact she had for youtube
???
she was the ceo from 2015 ish right?
can you mention a single good thing from that time?
still just as worse
also google may or may not have existed (well, it would have existed eventually) but without susan, google may not have existed in its current form
since it was literally started in her garage
... what
susan has been a part of google since the founding
lmao
but became the ceo of youtube in 2014
huh thats crazy
everyone knows that google started in a garage, but not as many people know that it was started in the youtube ceo's garage lmfao
though honestly if i didnt know, i would have expected it to be in like one of the founder's garages
Wow that's even more interesting, didn't know that one

It's the "me at the zoo guy" right?
dude thats a guy
A guy
also youtube was on the stage of huge growth at that time, and she had to market and manage the platform to become pretty much the undisputed best free video platform on the internet
that's already difficult enough
last time i checked youtube was a dating site, so was that bc of her?
no
youtube founders were different people
also the dating site didnt last very long
iirc they tried to make it a dating site for like a week or 2 then pivoted to just a video sharing site
why do you know soo much about youtube lol
i did a research project on it in hs lmfao
ah that makes sense
that was years ago though the info still is in my head
random youtube/google lore
but youtube was sold to google like, i forget how long afterwards, and then there were a few ceos prior to susan, but susan has been ceo for the longest
susan also had a background at another company that i forget which it was
prior to working with google
ah
she was working in marketing for intel
Intel
Ah yeah just saw now lol
I was reading through and spoke too soon
14900k
n o
Yes
Honestly I’m never getting intel
A majority of people held the same opinion on amd until the last like 5 years or so
Bruh no
good lord i didn't buy 13500hx acer laptop
I like amd more
Who knows, next year amd cpus might have a worse issue than 13th/14th (doubtful, but it gets the point across)
My next cpu is certainly going to be amd, but I would buy intel if it were better value down the line
yeah

The thing about me it’s very very hard to change my opinion on stuff whenever I wanted to 4090 it took about two days of convincing to want a 4080 super instead
Yeah that's true because you don't need a 4090 for Roblox lol
if it were just for roblox, even a 4070 would be silly
though it isnt, so the 4080s made a bit more sense
That's just called being stubborn...
You do you
I don’t think you read what I send
I probably did (maybe I didn't) but just in case, what was it?
@elfin mural
all we do in this server is help figure out ways to solve problems, and point people towards products that make sense and/or fit their needs properly without much excess waste
what they end up actually doing is up to them and any regrets from that decision is also on them fr
I will never tell someone to buy something
I'll tell them the downsides, up sides, where they're wasting money
Not like it affects my bank account or my computer
heck ig today I'll try to finally put this 10700KF to use as a Nextcloud server
well maybe--since I have no idea what I'm doing lol
lol these are all good ideas
I think
cuz I dunno anything ngl
my tentative goal is to become my own OneDrive
hmm
so OneDrive doesn't have to
ggoodDrive
I run Nextcloud and I love it
& I don't have to give OneDrive $7/month for 2TB
why do ice cream trucks have the worst speakers in existence
& best of all, I can send it back to the hell it came from on every device I use lol
Nextcloud can be expensive but I mean it pays for itself if you put other stuff on that same server as Nextcloud if you're building a whole new system
well rn I have a 10700KF with a 500gb NVMe, two 250gb SSDs, & a 2TB HDD that's a blank slate lol
It's also more private
could run it in a docker container on like, unraid or smth idk
Is Facebook marketplace a good place to buy computer parts or does it just depend on the area you’re in?
only buy local from fb marketplace
Yea
I don’t think I live in an area with a lot of people selling good computer parts
also it's fine, though deals may not always be the greatest
ebay prices are hit or miss but I'd go as far as saying that ebay is very buyer-friendly
btw here's another idea
robbery
I could give up on the 10700KF & instead run G7400 with the same storage setup--I think I could even throw a 1TB NVMe or at least another 500gb
the idea being that--at least I'd think?--it would be much more power efficient
it probably will be?
I mean G7400 is a dual core lol
then again my G7400 is a rare gem believe it or not because it supports AVX512
this is actually one of my best scores ever lol https://hwbot.org/submission/5591888_ggood003_y_cruncher___pi_1b_pentium_gold_g7400_57sec_686ms
ah embed fail... we meet again
oh wait jumped the gun
all of which can be done on a cheaper amd card lol
damn
I was going to get a 7900xtx or a 4080s but I’m sticking with the 4080s
G7400@5.6ghz with 7040c32-41-39-34 memory lmao
can, but some applications like blender (apparently even after the update to improve support for amd) is still favoring nvidia a bit more
also honestly nvidia studio drivers are just more stable than amd's pro drivers
Ok but are they gonna be doing production grade animating in blender? no
isn't CUDA gonna be like open-source or something similar nvm I dunno what I'm talking about
somebody/some group of people made some open source like translation layer or smth like that
and also you guys realize animators don't really have all their stuff saved on their computer
so that amd gpus could use cuda as well
its the same for ml
What about if you’re gonna have like 10 apps open at once because sometimes I forget to close stuff
that's RAM
^
& kinda storage since paging file
i mean, if they're doing it at home, idk if they would immediately invest in a nas or something similar
Gaming
or if you're like me, you set Windows to lock pages in memory & a bunch of people on hardware unboxed discord tell you that you're borking Windows
though it's smarter to not store things in your main devices because those are the most likely to experience data loss from like, ransomware
lock pages in memory?
Yes. L cache
how much mem do you use on idle?
Meow
It is why X3D isn't as impacted by ram speeds as some cpus
this is with Discord, Vortex mod manager, 6 tabs, & calculator open
& HWiNFO in the background
it still pages stuff but probably OS-related
I was gonna manually set no paging file but Windows starts crying & says I might not get event logs
so we compromised ig
so is TrueNAS an OS? ig I should read it hold on
People said for gaming get 32gb but what if I wanna also do other things too they still said to get 32gb
I believe so ya
if you're getting DDR5, it's kinda difficult to get anything lower than 32gb
ah ok i was kinda like wtf are you talking about
cuz it makes almost no sense in terms of price
No I mean like more like 48 or 64 since I kind of wanna get a job online like coding or something
Or something with making or helping with games
lol the thing where it moves stuff from RAM to NVMe to let more RAM be available for other stuff
you do not ned 48/64 for coding
gotta find a nice balance between memory speed and memory capacity
i used to code for 5 years on a 4gb laptop lol
I feel like that statement made more sense with DDR4
now it's like get Hynix & only Hynix
you should be comfortable with coding or game development with 32gb
lmao
Alright then
Samsung & Micron DDR5 seems to have such a small market presence I dunno
What’s a threadripper for
tasks that require alot of multithreaded performance
dude you know how many devs forget to compile with multi threading?
aka not you
its crazy
I’m not getting it it’s just that it looks weird
Wouldn't it make more sense to get Epyc soon if not already? iirc Epyc is starting to overlap TR more?
like high end TR & low end Epyc... are the prices that different at this point? Doesn't Epyc support more memory lanes & what not
well, alot of games are also made to run on a single thread for whatever reason; probably mostly because everything relies on a single clock signal or smth idk
like, minecraft is quite heavily reliant on a single main thread
I suppose I dunno enough about this to ask these questions lol
Noob
maybe if you rewrite the whole game you could fix it
but idk
i dont do game development
I wanna overclock an Epyc CPU. That sounds kinda fun ngl
i haven't touched game dev in a long time, but threading adds alot of complexity with code i'd asume thats why people dont do it
What’s Epyc?
Oh alright
das epic
lol Dual socket Epyc motherboards will support up to 4TB of RAM in 8 channels
imagine that ycruncher score
very crunchy
256 cores
I’m cookin rn
it would be a total waste for me to own this
did you guys see that image of the 9xxxx epyc?
lol still pulls less wattage than 14900KS
why is there an 8-core Epyc? I don't really get the application for that
Holy
Why is it so big?
Probably something like a HTPC?
Or like a small home server
cuz it can have as many as 64 CPU cores
It’s like 4 cpu in one
the Epyc 72F3 is 8c/16t & boosts to 4.1ghz
It’s so big
Yea
I just said that
75F3 is 32c/64t & boosts to 4ghz
^^
heck highest Epyc L3 cache size is 768mb
I’m curious how air coolers for that chip would look like
I wonder if you could run Windows XP just in Epyc's L3 cache lol
heck
I like your pfp
as far as i know, noctua makes them but you can also delid and have watercooler
meow
run arch instead
hello
hiii

Ive never seen a smartphone released from beyond the grave... but here we are with the new HTC U24 Pro. At first glance the HTC U24 Pro appears as a midrange smartphone with normal specs. But under the surface... is there more than meets the eye? Lets durability test and take apart this newest release from HTC. Are you ready for the comeback?
Roblox!
well now that 10700KF is all set up, I'm gonna bork windows seeing how high memory will POST ig
Ew
ugh can't we just live in a world where PSU cables are standardized? heck

Breaking the law rn lmao

thabks
Noob
yesterday when I turned on 10700KF something smelled funny
I'm wondering if the SATA PSU cable I used was for the wrong PSU
& I torched two SSDs lol
TMX USER TMX USER
AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Mate when will you ever realize that most people in this server are mature guys in their ~20. Also you have some exceptions like motor, that are WW1 vets
Gotta get a shifter
I’m very mature:D
You have three pedals, right?
told my friend to get a tmx but he got that stupid logitech g203 or whatever
Mannnnn
my car has three lol
You know your upgrade path now
stick shift ah driver
aight
oh jeez
T-LCM pedals and a TH8A (I think they make a budget shifter now that’s like sub $100)
More fun tbh
i know it is
cypertruck drivers have one 💀
I used the same cable & PSU connection the HDD works with & still see no SSDs in BIOS
Honestly if I get the option imma have my car manual swapped (it's having transmission issues of course)
Do you at least think the outfit is cool?
not a single bit
Why?
do you know if some companies could artificially limit the possibility of doing that?
like in a hardware prespective
Maybe not artificially, but I know for my car it'll throw a bunch of codes basically "BRO THE TRANSMISSION IS MISSING" when you're doing freeway speeds. It would have to do with the "automatic transmission" ECU not know that there's a manual transmission in the car
i don't trust car companies anymore, i had an uncle whom had a peugeot, and he had high octane gas and so his car wouldn't start. he went to the dealership and they literally fixed the issue with a software update
The car would otherwise run and drive fine
Outfit is fine but please, this doesn't align with our interests whatsoever. Even if this is general chat we mostly talk about tech not fashion lol
like how does that make any sense
It's just a huge hassle to do the transmission swap (for largely obvious reasons)
"Your car is now unavailable since you haven't updated in 2 years, now returning to shop"
should I get a prebuilt from nzxt or Newegg
Car drives away
Yeah i wanted to swap my transmission to automatic on my work car, but it was too expensive, so i decided i'll stick to manual
Neither 💀
Lmfao no
This guy wants an NZXT 💀😭
which company then
If you can't build a PC go for ABS at the very least
ok
idk why some people have a phobia of building pcs
Not many people want to attempt that even if there are thousands of guides
if you really don't wanna build, may i suggest.. a laptop?
it's just Lego for grown ups
Fear of breaking something is real
components are much stronger than they look
^^^
i could build one, just the fear of screwing up
Bingo
the only way anyone would mess up a pc if they get a hammer and decide to yoink in the cpu, ram, mobo, gpu using that
I’m going to build it even though I know I will fail
You can't really screw up unless you have butter fingers and managed to drop them at least 20ft

not sure if you have ever tried to break a 2mm pcb but the only way i did manage to do that, is by literally standing on it
putting the CPU into the socket is probably the most dangerous part
otherwise it's fairly straightforward
static electricity 😂
I've put together PCs wearing socks & sandals on carpet
static discharge is a conspiracy
jk but I'm surprised I haven't borked anything
I want this layout
I don't like that the center is missing
Center?
I never understood two monitors because of that
wth is that setup
You like three monitors next to each other?
three monitors with different contrast, color accuracy and everything
my eyes would hate that
I’d get ones that are very similar
its not about it not existing, it won't do anything
very similar isn't a thing with monitors
unless you order a few identical ones
they won't match
Or this but flipped
wow the most useless monitor setup on existence
I love how the two are stacked
How?

I've been behind 4 monitors before, you'll have one you use and 3 mroe that just use power
wth
I like to multitask I normally use 2
Doing anything that requires a second monitor:
same for 2 monitors maybe once a lifetime you yoink discord on one to game, but other than that you don't do anything
I don't think it supports nvidia cards after GTX9xx still tho
also yeah, unless you actually have jobs that need multi monitors
you ain't gonna benefit from it
What does require a second monitor?
I for one hate single screen setups
I mean yeah it is standard
I use a single screen but it's 43" lol
But it's kind of a lame standard
Wow
Oh ultrawide?
Cuz the based OLEDs are 42s
lol no
it's that gigabyte 4k tv thing
mate im not sure what sort of abnormal human beings you guys are but multitasking for long periods of time is both stupid and pretty much impossible
FV43U 16:9
Oh
standard 16:9
The big boy
Thats good
I thought the big boy OLEDs are standard 42"
cause atleast you can actually game on it
I watch YT while playing games and I like to call/message my friends while playing games
I don't really like ultrawide
my "multi monitor" setup is browsing discord on my phone and gaming on my laptop
I had a mediocre one before that I gave to my dad
Do you not get neck pain trying to look up to the top of that gigantic thing GG?
Me
Blud it depends on what your playing 😂
watching yt while playing games reduces your focus
I have three monitors but they're each on a different system
If you ever try any sort of speedrunning you'll watch YT while playing
also yeah having a monitor on above another is.. neck pain galore
:/
i listen to songs while i game
just pull up the video on your phone
so i can see the yt argument
songs != video
It’s hard to see the video on my phone since I don’t have a stand
Yeah except that doesn't effing work lmfao
i know, but alt tabbing just to switch a song isn't all that convenient
Especially when you have something you want to actually see on that
ok then just split screen that way you save time looking at a single screen
im used to alt tabbing swiftly, but it's just slower anyway
that head movement is 0.0001 seconds
Like a keystroke sequence for a glitch you want to do
And you pretty much can't on older Source games
Why would I want to split screen on a small monitor?
never said get a 1 small monitor
..yeah. ubisoft games also particularly hate alt tabbing
this is probably the best $11 I ever spent & I only use 1 of the four it comes with & gave the others to family lol https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09CDNXY2Z/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
dude you honestly won't get it unless you try it
cs2 hates it aswell
i would crash the game with a 50/50 chance
i don't like split screen myself due to window borders
I’m going to keep using 2 monitors instead
I’ll look into it
so monitor borders > windows borders?
Yes
yep you guys are crazy
Thx
i'd like to have another/less important program on the second monitor
main one would be my main focus
I mean you're cringe so that makes it even
I hate how the difference in size of mouse pointer size 3 is so much bigger than 2
no way in hell am i ever gonna combine two monitors into one output
like can I get a 2.5
THIS
For the love of God it's not difficult
the screen borders will annoy me otherwise
alr not sure why you say that but sure
now now let's play nice
there's no wrong setups as long as you're not hurting yourself in the process
like vertical arrangements
NGL
I want a vertical arrangement
Yea not sure why he is against every monitor set up
Having only one monitor is actually hindering me
Like this??

That’s the exact reason why I have a separate table for my PC lol
that arrangement looks like it would hurt my neck
You get used to it
I'm probably gonna put my PC on a wallmount
Have the top monitor tilted down a bit
i'd rather horizontal setup
Cuz my desk is tiny and the room is space constrained
but that's my view anyway
I have a PSU & two radiators wall mounted but not PC
@elfin mural what do you call a sideways T?
Also @craggy shoal is flip both monitors so the black line between them is smaller
I want that at the dentist experience
|--
yes
:D
I've even almost tempted myself to flip my only horizontal monitor upside down just so it's easier to reach the ports (logo would be upside down but idc)
Also I’d have the vertical one on the left
I can see a lot of uses for two screens
But it'd take me effort to use three (outside of simracing)
for simracing, uw would do better
the monitor borders annoy the heck outta me
so i can't absolutely combine different monitors into one large view
Just have YT or Netflix on one, games on the main one and discord on the vertical one that’s what I’d do at once
Yea me no likey
I had two 27" in portrait with 43" in the middle & tried to span them. the side monitors are 1440p & center is 4k so it never lined up right so I gave up
My ideal screen setup is the sideways T
how does my Z590 Unify-X have a BIOS update that came out like 3 days ago lol
I would only do superultrawide if there was software that came with the monitor to let you customize the aspect ratios (like turning it into two 16:9 monitors instead of using 32:9 all the time, and maybe doing 16:9 in the center and then two 8:9 on the side)
Can put a lot of Discord on the left one and game on the right
Pink thermal paste is a thing?
liquid metal is a much better thing
I guess it's a gril thing
gril
Y'know the very obviously egirl vibe
lmao
Must be the British spelling lol
Where everything must be pink
Yea but I don’t wanna use it I may break something
I’m getting pink thermal paste
normal thermal compound is fine tbh
Liquid metal is a little too sketch for me
bruh I've never heard of pink thermal compound. It's probably some offbrand that's dropshipped from AliExpress
It's probably going to be fine
But when it's not fine it's VERY not fine
I believe Yeston sold some?...
no one will see your thermal paste lol
I’m watching a video about thermal paste and he showed blue and pink
I still want pink
I only use Thermal Grizzly lol
liquid metal isn't scary
i just wanna use the phase change pads
& if you're worried put conformal compound
i hate repasting

PTM7950 FTW
bruh that's way too much 💀
Aren’t there pads or something with paste already
isn't thermal grizzly doing that too
What?
I actually have been meaning to install liquid thermal pad on my GPU
yeah
I have it I just don't wanna take loop apart
thermal grizzly debuted phase change pads
They're apparently making a PTM equivalent ye
I think honeywell did no?
Dunno if it's literally the same thing or just very similar
they probably bought the honeywells and rebranded em
or maybe engineered it themselves
PTM7950 was invented by then ye
linus sells those I think
ill worry bout it later
my laptop is only one year old
it still retains cooling capacity
Where do people find these wallpapers
Like stupid high res
high enough to fill in the gaps
Like 12000×8000
if monitors are 1080p, not thaaat super high res tho
Oh wow
Where are all the apps and stuff?
I mean with everything going on I doubt those are 1080p screwns
lol ya true
icons are removed/hidden
How do they do stuff like quickly
But I'd NEVER be able to get used to hiding them all
well
There's a ton of files on my desktop that I regularly use
I prefer putting icons on taskbar
then set everything back after pics have been taken
How can you access recycle bin without the desktop icon
I think I’d have like one or two folders on the desktop with mainly everything but very organized just so the wallpaper looks better
Like is there a link ho it elsewhere?
idk, maybe by typing it in search bar?
it can be on taskbar. I'm okay with that
"recycle bin"
Can I recycle the recycle bin?
Yeah
But your system will explode
you can hide it
How come?
holy heck it's gone
my desktop
I'm kidding lol you can't
:o
how'd you make taskbar seethru?
you can but it'd mess your os up
TranslucentTB (yeah I'm one of those people)
nvm I dunno if I'd want that... seems kinda too tablet/phone like kinda
How come?
..i may wanna try that
also yeah I have two web browsers on my taskbar lmao
but idk if i'll like it with roblox
Looks good
it's always windowed every time
looks kinda Ubuntu too I dunno
Same kek
I have Opera GX for general use
Me too
im a chrome main
And Chrome for when I have to access govt sites
but with manifest v3 annoying me
I might switch to Floorp and ditch Firefox tbh
i might actually use firefox as second browser
It's very gamer-y in appearance but it works well for me
What’s the 7900x3d better at?
multi core workloads
Now it's far from perfect but nothing ever is
stuff you don't even need for your usage
I was thinking about getting a 7900X3D but people say to get the 7800X3D. Why?
How come the 7800x3d is better at gaming than others like the 7950x3d?
ccd latency
Oh of course
zen 4 has 8 core CCDs
Aren’t both cpu already so good that it’s not like you would see a big difference?
adding above 8 cores would force you to run multiple CCDs
you will see noticeable gaming perf loss
in the form of overall smootbness
games are hella sensitive to latency lmao
Okay so then what about something like a 7900X or 7950X?
What about vs a 7800X3D?
Which would be better for gaming of these two?
Probably about the same. If not, then the 7950X just because more cores I'd imagine
Oh alright
I want a 7800X3D but it looks slower than my 13700K 🫠
Do you think the 9800x3d would be the next best for gaming or would the 9950x3d be the best for gaming
If it’s a thing
9800x3d
because zen 5 still doesn't have 16 core ccd config
epyc gets that tho
because obviously servers
Hmmm do you think it will be a lot more then the 7800x3d
i'd expect 20%
In performance? Probably not
Oh wait I mean price
9700x is already neck and neck with 7800x3d in games
stock vs stock
and with pbo the 9700x basically closes that gap
that's despite having much less l3 cache
9800x3d and 5080S sounds pretty nice
It'll probably be just a 5080 this year
ya
Wait like two years after for Super-series
Oh alright
Ngl I find Super is just for when Nvidia wants to refresh after people have been complaining about prices
Super series in a nutshell imo
How is the 7900xtx beating the 4090
apex prefers amd iirc
By a single frame 💀
Still
i'd say that's equal
Literally a 0.3% increase. You won't see that lol
I’d expect the 4090 to be much higher
for a card that supposedly competes with the 4080s
it's a good sight
well this is 1440p high
Some games prefer AMD GPUs over Nvidia GPUs, like Forza
Yea
I like for a on Xbox
Do you guys like the song I’m listening to
I mean I guess
Idk why I said it like that
Stopped listening after 5 seconds
I meant to say I like it on Xbox
Oh :(
I’m gonna throw my sister's bike out if she keeps placing it on my bike's derailleur
I swear bruh
Like wtf
It can’t be that back
Bruh
The derailleur is practically the engine of the bike (without counting you as the rider)
Ohhhh
What am I looking at 😭
I think I wanna beat you up
people with clean garages are mentally ill
Real
unless they have some crazy cars or something very valuable ofc
🥊😀
I’d keep mine clean no matter what
I think the opposite
I want my garage clean and organized when I get a house
yep i explained why, either way theres a quote about it anyways
Probably
YAY
But why would you put that on your computer lol
:D
Ummmmm
It’s pretty
I’d put it somewhere
AMD Inside
Basically any game that was made by a competent developer that spent time optimizing
real
yo
yi chat gn
Competent developer eh? Guess that is why Starfield still runs bleh 
good thing Alan Wake 2 devs are competent
Actually, did they ever fix up Starfield enough to not be turtle on everything? I haven't actually checked in on it. For obvious reasons
I got that AMD in me
i WILL spend $4000 to play at 60 fps and i WILL be happy
to be fair that game looks so good the requirements actually seem pretty justified
AND they added support for gtx 1000 series cards
Meanwhile rx580 gets 5 fps 
What’s the best steering wheel if I want it to be good
I haven't played it but from what I have seen you just walk around in dim environments with the occasional walk around the town
I guess that is how they get away with it
Yeah it looks good but not that good
I cant tell a difference when you turn on ray tracing except in the town where all the puddles turn into mirrors
Yeah this game doesn’t get 60 fps on 1080p low on a 4060 even
So also a 3060
Yep
Fsr 
fsr 1080p is brutal
It gets like 50 usually
With dlss like 70
Or frame gen like 90 I guess?
Can you run frame gen without the upscaling or do you need both
what's up with "current voltage" and "family"
Which would be better?
you WILL buy a new cpu and you WILL be happy
Both are the same wheel and they both are not good
yes i will buy an i7-2760QM and run it at 1.7 volts
What should I get then?
What you play on
Pc and Xbox
How much are those logitechs
First one is 350 and the other is 200
Ok for me the 923 is 350, which should be illegal
Get the moza r3. More expensive but way way better
R3 works on xbox
What makes it better?
also I would much rather it work on computer than Xbox
It is a direct drive wheel, which means the motor in the base that gives you the force feedback is directly attached to the column
The logitech is using literally 20 year old technology that has gears that give feedback
You will hear clunking and banging from the gears and I think it gets worse over time
Alright I’ll look to see the moza r3
DD is quieter than belt and gear wheels while providing more nuanced and fine feedback than both
which is more realistic
What’s DD
Oh ok

Yeah dont fall for the stuff thats like "buy this wheel and upgrade later" Rather you just get the real thing and keep it for a while
Yea I’m like that
No way this is real 💀
Arch user
He made a Reddit account just to ask that question lmao
The logitech basically has no feedback when you turn the first couple degrees. when you are on a straight you won't feel anything and when you go over a curb it wont really do much
I want a DD wheel soooo bad
speaking of wheels

I have a g920
Just leave bruh
But my 13700K is telling my bank account to budget else how rn
Bruh I’m saying 💀

I look forward to this release
Messed up there aren't many ps options
Fr :/
I think the cheapest dd wheel for ps is the g pro which is 900 for the ps version
But I really like Gran Turismo
Without the sony tax its 800
There's a Thrustmaster option that's cheaper lol
Logitech isn't the only wheel company
I lowkey wanted to get a cammus c5 and use an adapter
But that wheel is kinda sus imo
I wonder if I could get a Moza wheel and use my adapter with it
I dont think the thrustmaster was dd but idk their lineup very well
They have a really expensive ps wheel thats around the g pro price but its a belt wheel still
They love their belt wheels
Which one you have
Oh nah I meant the adapter. Which adapter do you have
I can't find the DD Thrustmaster option I was looking at. It was probably Fanatec 🫠
Expensive
Yeah I didnt say fanatec yet because they are more expensive than the g pro
Its brutal bruh
Bad financial luck isn't helping me this year bruh. It's like 2020 for me but only me
At least the ps wheels are

The cammus c5 is xi's finest chinesium but at the same time it does show how cheaply you can package a dd wheel
Its actually cheaper than a t300rs and that wheel is a decade old
@fervent stump another dd pro is that they typically smaller than the logitech and thrustmasters. a pro moza has is how easy it is to mount the wheel and the quick disconnect
Bruh if I could get a Moza wheel and have it work with my Ras1ution that would be soooo perfect
you can mount it to your desk so easily because it is small and uses normal clamps
the ras accepts moza wheels
I wanted to do that but I dont want to spend $5-600 to rely on 3rd party adapters
To a PS5? :0
Doesn't seem right to me. Also doesn't seem right to spend 350 on a t300rs when that wheel came out a decade ago

Yeah
But ebay will save the day
For now tho ima stick to my weird gyro steering
Did you keep Skippy or nah
Ofc kept him
I bet he screams at you once in while
Looks great
The only game I’m going to use the wheel in anyways beamng and forza for fun not competitively
Nah wym. It's an Intel CPU
but i don't have an asus motherboard
only asus would send it to 2.0V in search of incredible
💀💀💀
Asus mobo and intel cpu must be brutal man
I saw someone use asus ai oc on a 14900k and it set 1.71v manual lol

cpu electrocution
Often when anyone uses that feature they've either never looked for more than 10 minutes in a bios or exclusively use ryzen master or xtu
I fw ryzen master
in search of explosion

You better believe it
Who’s familiar with home server/media servers
Tell me what your question is and I may or may not send you a Let Me Google That For You link
I received this request
And I’m unfamiliar with servers such as these
i have a g920
you definitely feel the gears
like cloud said, the moza r3 is dd which means you wont feel any grainyness in the wheel and is only slightly more expensive
make sure to grab the brake upgrade though because the moza kit by default has a linear pressure brake, which doesnt feel anything like a real brake
"Why not Intel?" Go read the news
dont need something too extreme, you may want a nvidia gpu for the nvenc, but you dont really need anything high end for that
I want a Moza so bad
just got a decent insurance settlement, buying some Intel stock
Honestly just get a Ryzen 8000 APU
True but she gonna be playing forza and beam so I don't think she gonna care
i have a structured settlement and i need cash now
the wheel? or the brakes?
