radiant panther
north crescent
#

radiant panther
#

nah bun that yk wasting your time for big corporates

idle nexus
#

radiant panther
#

if u aint getting paid to do that why should you

#

ur usong your time for some guy living in a mansion

surreal kernel
#

ggod should I js revert back

idle nexus
#

fair but others receive the benefit too

radiant panther
#

wdym

surreal kernel
#

to my old windows update

surreal kernel
#

its not like they held him

#

at a gun point

#

and told him to become. a mod

radiant panther
#

i mean hes wasting his time

surreal kernel
#

he's got the free time I don't think that's wasting it

idle nexus
surreal kernel
#

yeah

radiant panther
surreal kernel
#

(i think)

#

idek if it was the bios update that I did that caused it

#

or the

#

wi 11

idle nexus
#

I mean like I help others & ig it lowers the load on Newegg/component manufacturers customer service

#

so they benefit in that sense

surreal kernel
#

idk what to do honestly I give up

radiant panther
#

they get paid to do it so why tf r u helping em when u dont get paid

idle nexus
idle nexus
#

well when we actually solve something, I get a sense of accomplishment haha

surreal kernel
#

but it used to be enabled

idle nexus
#

well if there's nothing on your PC to lose, reinstall win11 (or win10) from like Advanced menu where you delete existing partitions

idle nexus
#

did you make media creation tool thing?

surreal kernel
#

no

#

not yet

#

Idk if I should go win 11 or 10

idle nexus
#

I'd think it's more a BIOS issue than a Win10 or Win11 issue

velvet summit
#

rufus/ventoy superiority

surreal kernel
#

it porlly won't get fixed too

idle nexus
surreal kernel
#

should I do smth ab my bios

#

install a previous version?

idle nexus
#

roll it back one version

surreal kernel
#

from inside or

#

USB once again

idle nexus
#

USB I think... heck

surreal kernel
#

but idk if its gona work

#

I have FFB

north crescent
#

So Vendor Keys should be set to Default rather than Custom. When set to Custom, this is what you can get.

surreal kernel
#

I think my safest bet is to roll back a single version

#

here we go again

#

leme get my usb

surreal kernel
idle nexus
#

ya but you have to roll back BIOS to do that no?

#

hmm I wonder if Gigabyte discord knows anything

surreal kernel
#

in aorus

idle nexus
#

I see lmao

surreal kernel
#

I'm installing

#

FFa

idle nexus
#

just stay on earlier BIOS then heck that

surreal kernel
#

one version should b fine?

#

but it won open on winrar

#

when. I install it

idle nexus
#

download 7zip

#

ig the one before F20

#

F19?

surreal kernel
#

wouldn't this b alr

idle nexus
#

lol

surreal kernel
#

so which one should I roll back tk

#

to

idle nexus
#

ignore that

surreal kernel
#

the process is the same?

idle nexus
#

it's from 7 years ago

surreal kernel
#

that's what I'm saying

wary fjord
#

Sleep

surreal kernel
#

idk which one

idle nexus
#

#

besides this mess

what if you never touch it again lmao

surreal kernel

KLAHAHAHHAGHAGH

idle nexus
#

just enable XMP & call it a day

surreal kernel
#

but its old and prolly gon lose alot of

idle nexus
#

not really tbh

surreal kernel
#

can bios even improve

#

perf

idle nexus
#

rarely tbh

surreal kernel
idle nexus
#

might improve memory stability sometimes

#

but that's usually cuz AMD changed AGESA thing

#

just wait until a new one comes out & update then

surreal kernel
#

fair enough

idle nexus
#

or do that whole key risky thing. your call lol

#

if others have this issue, they're likely to revise it

surreal kernel

I'd prolly roll back

From award-winning developer, Neversoft, and accomplished screenwriter, Randall Jahnson (The Mask of Zorro, The Doors), GUN follows Colton on his quest for discovery as he seeks to exact vengeful justice on those who have wronged him.

Tonight it is 73F

wary fjord

yeah thats cold

nocturne flicker
#

My room is set to 75F on the thermostat

wary fjord
#

what is it now

#

so we can calculate ur delta temp

nocturne flicker
#

I don't care about that, I care more about the fact that my cpu is reporting to be drawing upwards of 200w when it is clocked at below a ghz when at idle

#

Wait a minute

#

My average Power Reporting Deviation in HWINFO is 16000%

wary fjord
#

xD

#

ur card is reporting wrong values

#

or bug somewhere

nocturne flicker
#

It is the cpu

wary fjord
#

ow sorry

#

i mean ur cpu

#

maybe the board is being dumb

nocturne flicker
#

I just updated the bios. Maybe

#

Time for a roll back. No vulnerability fixes for me

wary fjord
#

i dont think thats a big deal

#

check if that held back your boost

#

because it thinks u already pumping much wattage

#

xD

#

also try to remove fastboot on both mobo and windows

nocturne flicker
#

When I run a cpu test in occt the power reporting deviation seems to be fine and the reported wattage looks normal. It just breaks at idle apparently

how does that work how they know students aint cheating xD

light egret
#

so I can cheat on the studying if I want

#

but that's useless.

#

I cannot cheat on the actual test. I can take the test online but they make you install hella monitoring software and be on cam. If you look away from the PC for even half a sec, instant fail.

They also require photos of your desk and all that supposedly

#

I mean it also just depends on your proctor

#

you may get a relaxed proctor

#

but there are a lot of horror stories on people insta-failing and not knowing why

mortal grail
#

My first driving test I had a horror proctor

#

They took me down one of the worst roads in the city and I had to account for like, 5 different right of way interpretations on the 2nd corner of my test

#

Needless to say I absolutely failed

tranquil pebble
mortal grail
#

My 2nd tester gave me 100%

tranquil pebble
#

I did pass

mortal grail
#

I wasn't a bad driver, the first one was just an ass

tranquil pebble
#

driving test scores don't matter beyond pass or fail anyways

mortal grail
#

Ya it was just a bad section of road he wanted to make an easy day of me with

#

Every other test I've done I had perfect marks

tranquil pebble
#

mine threw curveballs at me but gave me a fighting chance at least

mortal grail
#

I could draw up this corner maybe

#

It's a busy T intersection

#

I was going to turn off the main road

#

Traffic was lined up across that road

#

And behind me

tranquil pebble
#

I guess I got lucky to not have to redo it

mortal grail
#

Pedestrians were crossing at 2 of the 3 sides

#

And traffic was moving

#

I had to, on low driving hours, pick:
The right time to go
The right time to go with no pedestrians crossing after I turned
The bite point and 2nd gear following for my launch
Waiting long enough for my indicator before I go
Checking my vision for random pedestrian emerging from the darkness to cross in the middle of said intersection (yes they had no organisation to this)

#

All while making sure I was given right of way by oncoming

tranquil pebble
#

Pedestrians + first road test is not a good combination

mortal grail
#

I got iirc like

#

3 of the 5 or 6 right

#

It's one of the worst corners in the state

#

So, I was frustrated but I rebounded quick

#

Second test I don't think I went back down there, I do know I got full marks tho

tranquil pebble
#

I was only 5 points away from a fail, but close doesnt count here. Pass is pass.

mortal grail
#

Ye

#

Oh yeah we had a pass grade here too

#

It's like 80% or something

#

But there's one section where everything needs to be perfect iirc

#

Like certain parts of road safety can't be misinterpreted or unknown

tranquil pebble
#

Oh yeah there are some issues that are insta fail

mortal grail
#

Ye

#

Hearing the story of a bad tester tho, def been there

#

That's one of my only experiences tho

tranquil pebble
#

Mine wasnt bad, just a bit of uh not telling me where to turn until the last second type deal

mortal grail
#

Damn, they aren't allowed that here

#

I either knew or didn't, they wouldn't warn me

#

They take it as if they aren't in the car

#

Though they're there with dual control

tranquil pebble
#

Well, for mine I had no destination preset and where to go was seemingly done on the fly

mortal grail
#

Hm

#

Mine was a preset course

#

But I had an instructor teach me the courses

tranquil pebble
#

I would have had less points with a preset lol

mortal grail
#

The tester would tell me when to turn and make it seem random

mortal grail
tranquil pebble
#

but fortunately I dont need to deal with that again

mortal grail
#

They're all filled with randomly common variety

#

Like

#

You can go down a street

#

Suddenly 3 stop signs

#

Or you find yourself doing a rare kind of left or right hand turn

#

Sort of thing?

#

So it was like casually integrated into the area so the centre could test people for specific things

sweet sun
mortal grail
#

Hi nikolai

#

Anyway the test was not reflective of any normal experience in my time of driving

#

I think the closest is with specific architecture in like dense city areas between high rises

#

But I don't experience that very often

man when i saw that trailer from summergamesfest i thought it was going to be some story driven singleplayer action game

grand kernel
#

matchmaking doesn't work with a low playerbase

rancid juniper
#

boy i was wrong when they flashbanged us with that generic hero shooter footage

grand kernel
#

I didn't even hear about the game until I started seeing people clowning on the player count post launch lmao

velvet summit
grand kernel
#

how could their marketing team fail so badly that someone as chronically online as me never even heard of the game

#

until post launch

#

do they have a marketing team?

rancid juniper
#

its bad

#

nah they spent all their money in making that marketing trailer

#

nothing more

#

word of mouth failed since the game was that trash

grand kernel
#

meanwhile deadlock:

rancid juniper
#

also boring

grand kernel
#

i keep hearing about it despite not really having interest in shooters

#

that's a step up from concord

rancid juniper
#

most fps games are a step up from concord

sweet sun
#

such a good case

#

it fits really big motherboards too

rancid juniper

its worth it at 65

goes up to 70 after tax

sweet sun
#

the second best option is the xt pro

#

without fans

rancid juniper

backorder...

sweet sun

but thats gonna cost a bit more than 65 after you buy fans

yea

5080 comes with 16gb vram on a 256-bit bus and launches at $2000 msrp

rancid juniper
#

🤢

grand kernel
#

10% performance gain over 4090

#

1 month later they launch the 5080 12gb with a 96-bit bus using brand new 32Gbit vram chips

velvet summit
grand kernel
#

trades blows with the 4080 for $1600 msrp

#

i do hope 50 series does well though

#

out of all the stocks i bought recently only nvidia went down

rancid juniper

#

intel really needs some kind of W lol

rancid juniper
#

they might just achieve it

#

on the gpu sector

grand kernel

the red one is nvidia

lmao

rancid juniper

why can't nvidia join team green man

rancid juniper

identity crisis

grand kernel

nvidia the most loyal team red fan i've ever seen

behind intel

so loyal that they wanna make team red look good in the budget market

what's a budget market?

this gpu is a crime

I find the rx 6300 less offensive than the rx 6500xt

grand kernel
#

the rx 6300 has no delusions of grandeur

#

it isn't ashamed to be what it is

#

a modern display adapter

rancid juniper
#

lmfao

grand kernel
#

priced relatively appropriately for what it is as well

rancid juniper
#

just a bit triggered on how terrible it runs on pcie 3.0 systems

#

should've been idk pcie 4.0 x8 or pcie 3.0

sinful blade
#

IM GOING TO MICROCENTER

grand kernel
#

the 6500xt is a small step up from a display adapter marketed as a gaming card

grand kernel
rancid juniper
#

😡

grand kernel
#

rx 6300 being x4 is totally fine

#

6500xt not so much

rancid juniper
dusk knot
grand kernel
#

pcie lanes do take up actual silicon

#

so it makes perfect sense for the rx 6300 to be cut down to x4 to lower costs

elfin mural
#

im eternally upset about 6500xt

grand kernel
#

gtx 1630 still worse lmao

elfin mural
#

i hate that too

grand kernel
#

people really paid $200+tax for that heap of burning garbage

elfin mural
#

equal hate for ewaste

#

no matter the brand

rancid juniper
#

cant wait for RTX 4030

elfin mural
#

can't wait for 3gb 3050

grand kernel
#

6500xt is still significantly less ewaste than gtx 1630

elfin mural
#

true

rancid juniper
elfin mural
#

lmao

grand kernel
#

at least you can still play games that aren't league/val on a 6500xt

#

at least 6500xt still beats igpus

#

imagine paying $200+tax for a card that loses to igpus

#

💀

#

Radeon 780m/890m

#

heck maybe less

grand kernel
#

nah 1630 was losing to contemporary igpus let alone going that far

#

the radeon 680m was available 6 months before the gtx 1630

elfin mural
#

my laptop igpu stronk

grand kernel
#

a radeon 680m being held back by 16gb cursed half-rank ddr5-4800 jedec still beats gtx 1630 in a lot of games

rancid juniper
#

that says something

#

proves that nvidia wants to be the best at anything

now if the 680m had some proper ddr5 to keep it fed

I don’t have much money

velvet summit

it only took over a year

but i finally figured out how to use this power supply

#

who would have thought that the manual would have useful information

light egret
#

What's a manual?

icy ore
#

Buddy is asking: for the best raytracing build (adding in new CPU/GPU lineup coming out soon), it’s ok to mix an AMD CPU & Nvidia GPU, yeah?

#

I.e. a 9800x3d/5090

light egret
#

yes

icy ore
#

Thought so but didn’t wanna tell him wrong lol

#

Do we have ETA on new GPUs yet?

light egret
#

Although from what I understand, cost to perf, amd GPUs have the upper hand right now. I don't think they have an answer for 4090 tho. No idea when 50 series comes out

elfin mural
#

they might limit to 8700xt

icy ore
elfin mural
#

sad

icy ore
elfin mural
#

and amd is exactly a gen behind in rt

light egret
#

I'm pretty sure AMD can handle ray tracing too, although nvidia does have an upper hand in it

#

but I'm an nvidia fanboi rn so I can't speak on it much lol

elfin mural
#

nvidia started first so they are naturally one gen ahead in rt

#

oversight on amd's part

tranquil pebble
elfin mural
#

can't really blame amd tho lol, rt was a gimmick

light egret
#

I mean there's a chance it could become the norm in AAA titles but it will be a few more years at least.

tranquil pebble
#

RDNA 1 was originally supposed to have RT IIRC

#

unless that was always just a rumor

light egret
#

RayTracing is neat AF. I don't need it, but it's neat tech.

elfin mural
#

it's the future if games even implement it right

#

aka in an optimized way

velvet summit
icy ore
#

Worried about perf of 9—X3D bc the 9900/9950 seem pretty underwhelming

light egret
elfin mural
#

nah the fix is

velvet summit
#

i somehow ending up reading more manuals for other people than myself 💀

elfin mural
#

run it on pbo

#

stock PL holds the 9k stuff back

#

amd became overly careful

#

didn't want an intel to happen

light egret
#

The only manual I have read for "myself" was when I was building my dad's new fancy smoker for him. Other than that I haven't touched a manual on my own project in years.

velvet summit
#

lmfao

icy ore
#

Also is PBO like Intels AI boost?

elfin mural
#

no

#

also no

icy ore
#

Damn

elfin mural
#

pbo is better

elfin mural
#

it's brainless ocing

icy ore
#

^ me

elfin mural
#

you just turn it on

#

boom

#

free perf

icy ore
#

damn, that’s sick

elfin mural
#

better than manual oc and degrading your cpu

#

it's pretty much like gpu boost

#

as long as there's power and cooling budget

#

it will boost as high as it can

light egret
#

man whoever invented laser printers is insane. The way they work is way more complex than I thought it was.

elfin mural
#

guaranteeing stability

#

and additionally

#

you can undervolt dynamically with pbo co negative offset

velvet summit
#

anyways, i now finally now can control my power supply from windows

how long until 24gb vram isnt enough

sweet phoenix
#

A long time

#

At 4k 16gb is still plenty for all but a very few badly optimized games

silver sparrow
#

Are you saying my gt 610 isn't good enough now?

sweet phoenix
#

Bro you've got a gt 610? Lucky

tranquil pebble
#

4k gaming on 128 voodoo cards somehow

sweet phoenix
#

I'm running an i7-760 with it's igpu on 2gb ram

silver sparrow
#

With a whole 1gb of ddr3 vram

#

I gamed on a gt610 for like 3 years

tranquil pebble
silver sparrow
#

It barely ran beamng drive, but with all the settings as low as you could go with reduced res, it was playable on my core 2 duo e8400

sweet sun
silver sparrow
#

There's a reason i went all out on my pc, cause dealing with a e8400, with a gt610 for so long creates a undying need for performance

sweet sun
#

yea but i woudnt call your pc performance focused

silver sparrow
#

I mean modern day yeah

#

Zen 3 realisticly had no need for anything above a 5600x as all the higher teir cpus had no real perf bonus over each other

silver sparrow
#

Yeah

sweet sun
#

gaming isnt the only thing

#

that a pc can do

#

the 5950x is very yes

#

also the 5800x3d is way better in gaming too

silver sparrow
#

Yeah, but that wasn't out till way later

sweet sun
#

yea but you said zen 3 not the first zen 3 cpus

silver sparrow
#

Well yeah but im talking about when i built my pc how i couldn't realisticly go for more perf focus'd

sweet sun
#

when did you build your pc tho

silver sparrow
#

The only thing i ended up cheapingn out on was gpu, but even then it was a3070

#

Its been a continual build for 4 years

I first built it aug 12ish 2020

You get a more efficient architecture

It's definitely possible

unless there are laptop station with hose clamps to plug in your watercooling

1000w laptop???

To be fair you won't need the liquid cooling really
