[velvet summit]

for some electronics that they imported

those werent the exact numbers but i remember him saying 90% tax

(they were ordering some boards from aliexpress and had to pay insane tax)

[tacit geode]

hallo it is me

[nocturne flicker]

Anything from China will have a 60% tariff and anything from anywhere else'll be 10-20%. AMD cpus gonna go up 20%

[rancid juniper]

ello

[nocturne flicker]

And apparently from what I've been reading people have been getting let go in prep for the tariffs

[random osprey]

bye bye 9900x3d or whichever is the new best amd cpu is

[rancid juniper]

https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-confirms-core-ultra-200-launch-didnt-go-as-planned-promises-performance-fix-by-early-december

intel patching cpus like AAA games

they gotta stop rushing things

[storm narwhal]

Businesses in India can't even take the money they earn out of India

So yeah

Cause of that stupid tax

[storm narwhal]

Oh DID IT??

[rancid juniper]

guess so according to intel

[storm narwhal]

Could never have seen that it didn't go as planned

That's crazy

[rancid juniper]

dont worry, they'll fix it. They always do, right?

[wary fjord]

amd the quite kid outshined them

[rancid juniper]

doubt amd will be the underdog anymore, they outright demolished them

[storm narwhal]

AMD is the top dog now

The turn tables

[rancid juniper]

man

it makes you think, what would tech be like if AMD actually went fully bankrupt after FX's failure

[wary fjord]

hahah if intel play their cards right

it might happen

[rancid juniper]

guess i wait for Ultra 300 series then

[wary fjord]

they gonna add Mega on the cpu name

then Super Duper Mega Ultra 300 series

hahaha

SDMU 300 series

so no 15th seriess right?

sad

its hard to predict now whats the next line up

i can just jk wait for 16th series if 15th series was released

see what i mean?

now its just 3 digit xD

[wraith fern]

what's arrow lake

is that 14th gen?

intel peaked with alder lake and raptor lake

[rancid juniper]

dang

[wary fjord]

join me driver only gang

xD

[tranquil pebble]

Realest post of the day

[proud jackal]

GUYS THESE FIXES

Are going to make arrowlake so much better

[rancid juniper]

lol

[proud jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/hype-party-gif-23560775

[tranquil pebble]

Alder lake was peak... Raptor is when things went to hell

[rancid juniper]

^^^

alderlake didn't had major issues and was a great improvement over comet lake and its refresh

[tranquil pebble]

alderlake was honestly amazing considering it was the first time for Big.little on x86

[wraith fern]

I love my alder lake cpu, 0 issues

[mighty hazel]

Huh raptor lake was a decent improvement

[wraith fern]

raptor lake was good i thought

[proud jackal]

I had more problems with raptorlake tan alder lake when it came to stability even when I went through two 14900K

[mighty hazel]

It is

[rancid juniper]

raptorlake is an improvement but got hit with stability issues on the higher end

[wraith fern]

im still rockin my 12700k

[mighty hazel]

That’s voltage

[wraith fern]

running strong

[rancid juniper]

well 13600k users can be affected

[proud jackal]

13900K is such a nice CPU

[tranquil pebble]

i dont consider a CPU that cooks itself over time to be any kind of improvement

[mighty hazel]

Wdym still. It’s not an old cpu 😭

[mighty hazel]

That’s the voltages

easily fixable

[rancid juniper]

seriously, these cpus operating 1.3v+ on stock

thats not good

you can bring it as low as 1.15v

[mighty hazel]

Only? 💀

I’ve heard of 1.6

On i9s

[rancid juniper]

W

T

F

[mighty hazel]

1.3 is nothing xD

That’s like best case

[rancid juniper]

and heres me running at 1.095v

🗿

i wonder if i can push the cpu up to 5.4ghz at 1.15v

1.18v was the last recorded stable voltage

[mighty hazel]

“I wonder how it degraded, it was running fine”
The cpu in question :

[tranquil pebble]

CPUs used to run at 5V lol

[mighty hazel]

Different arch lol

[rancid juniper]

aint that like cpus of the 80s?

idk

[mighty hazel]

You could run 1.5v on skylake too sorta

[tranquil pebble]

486 DX and the like yeah

[rancid juniper]

what 99999nm does to a cpu

[wraith fern]

ive cooked old cpus

just crank up voltage

till they kaput

[rancid juniper]

i only cooked a motherboard

[wraith fern]

i cooked a psu

[rancid juniper]

or it cooked itself

[wraith fern]

capacitor bursted

lol

[rancid juniper]

bruh

[storm narwhal]

good god

[nocturne flicker]

Normal people cook food, we cook cpus and psus

[tranquil pebble]

Kentucky Fried CPU

[wary fjord]

thats nice me im still rocking 3600 xD

[wary fjord]

probably heat just heat

xD

and bigger socket too

larger nm the fatter transistors on it right?

and they have to pack bilions on it..

thats gonna be a big ah cpu xD

[tranquil pebble]

this can kill anything if it goes high enough... including humans

[wary fjord]

waste of wafer also

[tranquil pebble]

actually, the bigger the transistor size is the lower the transistor budget is

so big nm just means a CPU with few transistors

[sweet phoenix]

This would still taste better than their actual chicken.

[tranquil pebble]

lol

[rancid juniper]

Gonna name the CPU: rocky

[icy ore]

[tranquil pebble]

found something very memeable

[sinful blade]

So apparently this guy wasn’t kidding.
He does it for a job.

So uh
What do I tell him

(He was obviously yankin my chain(heh) with the question, but he genuinely wants to know)

[velvet summit]

well

realistically, no? not 8k and 200fps at the same time

[tranquil pebble]

could probably do something janky with multiple hw decoders in tandem

[velvet summit]

is there even a display that can do 8k 200fps though

even if we have gpu processing powerful enough

[sinful blade]

He just wants a single machine, budget of $6k, just to do high quality. Not 8k 200fps.

[velvet summit]

like, is he doing editing/colour mastering?

6k is a small budget for a proper mastering monitor

[sinful blade]

Yes.
He says he is solo producing.

Not sure how true that is

But can’t really vet the guy

[velvet summit]

CG2700X $3.4k on b&h

for monitor

[sinful blade]

[velvet summit]

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1734369-REG/eizo_cg2700x_bk_coloredge_27_uhd_ips.html

should be colour accurate enough lmfao

has a calibration sensor built in

[sinful blade]

Would intels arc encoding be best?

I know the 770 has some good performance

[velvet summit]

in terms of stability, idk how reliable arc is currently?

[sinful blade]

Relatively stable as far as I’ve seen

[velvet summit]

industry standard is really still nvidia on the studio drivers

[sinful blade]

Maybe then a video gpu instead

[velvet summit]

at least from what i've seen

i'm assuming they're doing video editing so something that works well with whatever they're using (likely either davinci or premiere pro)

would be good

[sinful blade]

This has been the weirdest Facebook marketplace interaction I’ve ever had

Hands down

[sage sluice]

Why would you spend 6000 dollars on a monitor holy

I mean color accuracy sure

But

Even then

[velvet summit]

literally just colour accuracy is the reason

also there's more expensive monitors

also 6k i assume is for the pc and monitor

[sage sluice]

Thats.. insane

[sinful blade]

So now I just need to figure out his budget for an actual computer

[velvet summit]

hdr mastering monitors can go for over 10k

but that's what you need to be sure that what you're mastering is accurate

colour grading monitors are cheap in comparison lmao

[sinful blade]

That’s AAA movie shiz

Marvel level

[velvet summit]

iirc even ltt got some like $15k hdr mastering monitors

they have a whole room dedicated for hdr mastering

[sinful blade]

Budget for computer is $7k

[pliant berry]

Well they had that 20k display for testing but I thought they just used an ipad for color grading

[sinful blade]

Slap an a2000 in it and call it a day

[velvet summit]

iirc they have 2 stations, one for colour grading and one for HDR? maybe they serve both purposes

[pliant berry]

I really need a new monitor for photo editing. My desktop monitor is becoming unbearable

[pliant berry]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[velvet summit]

i honestly dont remember but it doesnt really matter

lmao

[pliant berry]

Point is those ipads have really damn good displays for the price

[velvet summit]

true

even blackmagic has some ipad mastering controls

[pliant berry]

Yup

[velvet summit]

truly a mastering machine

[pliant berry]

I had 5 photo jobs today and 4 of them I edited from my phone because they all wanted them before 5pm

[velvet summit]

[sinful blade]

I got an iPad gifted for my birthday from my aunt. Gave it to wife as a gift, and by the traveler, it’s wild. I love the display.

[random osprey]

better have charged them extra

[pliant berry]

Honestly

[sinful blade]

It’s only 9th gen
But it’s still clear as day

[pliant berry]

Yesterday I only had 1 job for today. Then I suddenly had 3 companies ask if I was available. The timing was so tight with some I can’t believe I made it everywhere on time

[velvet summit]

💀

4 jobs in 1 day

[random osprey]

gotta make some spider man web slingers to travel around

[sinful blade]

Wish companies would approach me with this kinda stuff

[pliant berry]

5 jobs, 4 companies lmao

[sinful blade]

Btw @velvet summit

[velvet summit]

yeah

honestly

7k for just a pc? you could kit them up with even a 4090 easily

not even a sweat

[wary fjord]

dont let them know xD

they might be here haha

[sinful blade]

SLI 4090s

[velvet summit]

they wont need a quadro with more vram than the 4090 no matter what they're editing

[wary fjord]

tell them u use the finest of the finest software to do the job done

happy noises xD

[sinful blade]

Probably what, 8tb of storage?

[pliant berry]

Lol

[velvet summit]

build them a NAS

[sinful blade]

Oooo that’s a good idea

[wary fjord]

and get what 30%+ perf

xD

[velvet summit]

storing videos on the system isnt ideal

lol

[sinful blade]

This is going to get messy

shut up I know

[pliant berry]

My cellular stats reset just 2 days ago and I already used almost 20gb just sending photos and communicating

[velvet summit]

8tb might be a bit tight on storage if they have alot of footage, 12tb is probably the minimum

and have that be usable storage after redundancy

raid 5 should be safe enough?

[pliant berry]

I have 24tb server in raid 5 and I am at about 50% capacity now

[wary fjord]

deym amd has scalper issue now

on 9k series

its over

[pliant berry]

I need to start evaluating whats worth keeping

[sinful blade]

I don’t think I’ve ever built this expensive of a system yet

[wary fjord]

im having dejavu xD its like nvidia scalpers back in a day

[velvet summit]

assuming you're building this, make sure they deposit like 50% before in case they get cold feet or whatever

well, or if they pay upfront which would be more ideal

[pliant berry]

Don’t remind us

[velvet summit]

then they have 0 chance of running

[sinful blade]

Yeah no I’m not doin it till I get paid upfront

I ain’t in that business of taking chances

PayPal business

[tranquil pebble]

really wish something would be done about the scalper problem ngl

[opaque sedge]

Why am i broke

[weak cedar]

Shop that's why

[wary fjord]

cant

they legally own it xD

even if u limit the item 1-2 per person

anyway

65k is not that bad

xD

i think palworld can pay that

yuzu owe 2.4m tho to big N .. but big N only wants 65k on palworld xD

i think they are just messin with it

7545191, 7493117, 7528390

list of patent big N throws at palworld

this patent only registered this aug tho

xD

[rancid juniper]

Game patents are one of the reasons why games lack any new ideas

[wary fjord]

like this year

august of this year

those 3 patent registered

[rancid juniper]

That's because no one can improve on said function except the company who patented it, but usually they just sit on it and monopolize.

[wary fjord]

palworld release is at January 19, 2024

[weak cedar]

And this

[icy ore]

Ninturdo has some real bad business practices

[rancid juniper]

Some people claim that they "updated" the patents

[wary fjord]

but we love their games xD we love marios

xD

so many marios

every console has mario

[velvet summit]

we?

[icy ore]

Xbox Mario?

[velvet summit]

there's no we in team

[wary fjord]

deym

you hate big n games?

[rancid juniper]

Nintendo literally axed the emulators because their next switch is backwards compat

[icy ore]

^ but on that note

[wary fjord]

yes Super Mariot Jumpman Adventures

[icy ore]

The literal “consoles” in the Nintendo museums

Are just emulators

[wary fjord]

true

they can make emulator but u cant make your own

i mean its their business

but i bet their emulator runs better

because they have access to the source code

[icy ore]

big N is like El^n M^sk, will sue anyone and anything

[rancid juniper]

It would be damming if they actually used an existing emulator that's not their own

[wary fjord]

oooo

that will be a nice article for meme

[rancid juniper]

It would

[velvet summit]

nintendo emulators are practically vms

ong

[rancid juniper]

Man I wish that did happen, the headlines would've been glorious

Nintendo caught running yuzu

can we not discuss bio? thanks

i did bio for an hour today im so done

more than an hour

like 1 and a half hours of boring work

mitosis is pretty rad

[wraith fern]

stop

thats what it was on

[pseudo patrol]

umm 😭

I gotta upgrade fast

that knocking noise scary tho

Oh my god

hi jp

hows it goin

[dusk knot]

Lol maybe this is a sign that you should get an air cooler

[dusk knot]

I am doing alright..you?

[wraith fern]

fine. submitted another photo to jetphotos today

did some bio work

chillin

[gilded kraken]

its just the water demon they trapped inside the AIO trying to get out

dont worry about it

[dusk knot]

You think you'll get an answer?

Youve taken some really solid shots

Maybe a more daring angle might get you attention...

[wraith fern]

an answer?

they either accept it or they don't

they accepted my last photo so i hope this one gets accepted. i don't see why it wouldn't be

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[dusk knot]

You know what I meant, but yeah

Hmmm

A different angle might work for you. Idk how you can do that

[wraith fern]

you have an issue with the angle?

to be fair every shot i've gotten on jetphotos has been the same angle

but i only post what's good, i'm picky

ima get a 360 aio instead of a 280 lol

my pc consumed too much smoke from a stove fire too lol

[proud jackal]

i just ordered an aio for my testbench

[pseudo patrol]

nice which brand did you use

[pseudo patrol]

ooo

I might also replace my 650w psu

would a 850 be good for overclocking

or should I get a 1000w

or is that overkill

[proud jackal]

depends on your total system tdp

[pseudo patrol]

true

ill use the calculator on newegg

yep so around 850 if i overclock

[proud jackal]

get 1600W

[pseudo patrol]

wow I didnt kno they had 1600w psu's

arent those used on workstations

[proud jackal]

https://cultists.network/140/psu-tier-list/

[elfin mural]

yes and no

[proud jackal]

[elfin mural]

cuz anyone can buy it

[pseudo patrol]

I might get the 1200w for longterm

its a good balance

[proud jackal]

just aim for 1000w

unless you plan to get 5090/6090 later which might do 600w

alone

[pseudo patrol]

that'll be insane

imagine all the crypto miners using them

remember scalpers used to buy them in bulk

[proud jackal]

they bought server psus

[pseudo patrol]

I remember experimenting crypto mining with my old 1660 super then it was overheating like crazy

but i'll make sure to get the 1000w psu

[pseudo patrol]

the max is 3000rpm thats not badd

[proud jackal]

im not doing 3000rpm mode

leaving it on low mode which is 2300rpm max

imagine sticking your finger in a 3000rpm fan

[pseudo patrol]

good thing it doesnt have metal blades 😂

I might need to get that one, I was about to get the Artic LF iii but its max is 2000 😭

[proud jackal]

LF3 is good overall tho

you dont want to run fans at max anyways

[pseudo patrol]

fax

[proud jackal]

my current fans can do 2100 and i dont let them go past 1900rpm because of the noise

[pseudo patrol]

I need something with a good limit that wont over wear the system

[proud jackal]

LF3 has its own intel contact plate too

[sweet phoenix]

lf III

[proud jackal]

[sweet phoenix]

rpm means nothing

hell you can swap the fans for whatever tf you want

[proud jackal]

ye

[pseudo patrol]

my current lf ii tops out at 1700rpm

sounds like an airport

[sweet phoenix]

unless this is goin on an oced I9, it will make no difference

[proud jackal]

swap in arctic max fans if youre not happy with the arctic fans that come with it

[sweet phoenix]

thats because because the fans suck

[proud jackal]

there is very little diff between lf2 and lf3

[sweet phoenix]

p12s on the lf3 are known for being quiet

[pseudo patrol]

hopefully the lf3 will have some more improvements

[sweet phoenix]

oh

wait

[pseudo patrol]

the lf2 I bought arent even in stock anymore lol

[sweet phoenix]

i misread this

you should still have warranty, no?

[pseudo patrol]

I got it in 2022

i think it only lasts a year

[sweet phoenix]

was it b stock?

[proud jackal]

arctic is 6 year warranty no?

[pseudo patrol]

probably if you bought the plan

[proud jackal]

there is no plan

[pseudo patrol]

wait really?

[proud jackal]

https://www.arctic.de/us/blog/extended-warranty-period-for-all-liquid-freezer-ii-coolers

[pseudo patrol]

oh wow

I'll see if i could start a warranty claim through

[proud jackal]

for fans?

[pseudo patrol]

but they wont upgrade to a different model right?

[proud jackal]

idk i never did arctic rma

[pseudo patrol]

I'd prob get diff fans tho

the newer models have better airflow

[sweet phoenix]

nah theyd either fix or send you a replacement lf2

[pseudo patrol]

not too bad, but not sure how long the entire process will take tho 😭

[sweet phoenix]

what cpu?

[pseudo patrol]

9900x for the new setup

i currently have a 5800x

[sweet phoenix]

$20 120 evo dark will keep it cool in the meantime

[pseudo patrol]

i'll def add some Artic P12's to the system too

[proud jackal]

5 packs are pretty cheap during this time of the year

[pseudo patrol]

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CC8V6PHJ/?coliid=I1KP0PHE0GUJT0&colid=FJX4TQKUOZVX&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1

ye its cheaper on amazon than newegg surprisingly

[sweet phoenix]

no p12 max

in ow game

will explain

theyre really not much better than p12s and are louder

p12s, or thermalright b12/k12

[pseudo patrol]

wow no wonder why they're so cheap

how would you rate the lian li case fans?

[sweet phoenix]

no

[sweet phoenix]

.

[pseudo patrol]

oh those

[proud jackal]

dont pay more than you need for case fans

arctic p12 will do fine

non-max if you find them cheap

[pseudo patrol]

I might be able to still work with my p14's i jus gotta dust em off

[proud jackal]

[pseudo patrol]

i only need like 2 more for the bottom

I used some old coolermaster ones from my old setup

beefy

idk why they were so expensive back then

it was like $12 per fan

[proud jackal]

do i need this

[gilded kraken]

no theres hardly any gain from what I understand

[proud jackal]

[gilded kraken]

whats the CL on that ram?

[proud jackal]

theres 8800cl42 and then 8600cl40

[gilded kraken]

Need more ram testing for CL speeds and values for the new processors I think

I think HW unboxed said they were gonna do one

I just grabbed 6400 CL 32's personally

[proud jackal]

just regular udimm right

i have 7200cl34 in mine rn but havent touched it since installed it

[gilded kraken]

yea, nothing special for the new x3d chip when I get it

they didnt have anything spicyer in my capacity range for that on newegg

I wanted z5 neos but they were only twin 16 kits

[somber skiff]

m-die is the play on ARL, easily, at least for ambient

[proud jackal]

ill just wait till intel pushed out the optimizations and more kits come out till shoot all the prices down

[prime junco]

Does anyone know why I can’t view my order, I just placed a order for 2 pc’s one for me one for my brother and they want my billing address again and I can’t view my orders?

And it says I gotta wait 2 business days before I get a response

[gilded kraken]

did you get a email confirming the order?

[prime junco]

Yes

[gilded kraken]

if they were unable to do a successful billing it may have scrapped the order entirely

I would check your order history on your newegg account

[prime junco]

I kept reading that people said it was because their home address was different from the cc billing address

[prime junco]

I can’t that’s the thing

I had to send them the billing address and I have to wait for them to confirm it

[gilded kraken]

it most likely paused the order until they can confirm its not a fraudulent purchase considering this would be a large purchase

[prime junco]

That makes sense I’m pretty sure it was around 3k-3.5k total for just Newegg

Cause Amazon went through perfectly fine no issues

[gilded kraken]

I would just hunker down until newegg support contacts you back

[prime junco]

Alright thanks

Intel doing poorly is why 9800x3d is selling out I bet

or at least part of the cause

AMD probably isn't used to this level of market success lol

[upper hawk]

7800x3d also over priced now or oos so that adds to it

Also preparing for the 5090 this is the cpu to get

[tranquil pebble]

or for 1080p players looking for extreme FPS

[sour falcon]

Hello there

[upper hawk]

Just tried playing Far cry 6

Seeing a 28% uplift from my 7900x3d

Insane

[tranquil pebble]

3700x to 5700x3d was a huge jump for me

[worthy tapir]

I am waiting patiently for my 9800x3d

[proud jackal]

Thanks

[velvet summit]

i wonder if that's an overlay or ants

though if there's really ants between the backlight and the lcd, they probably wouldnt look quite as defined as this

so it's probably just an overlay

[worthy tapir]

I've heard of ants inside monitors before. But yeah might be overlay

Nzxt posted that

[velvet summit]

ants are small enough to fit in betwen the backlight and lcd yeah

ususally there's a few mm of clearance between the lcd and backlight

[tranquil pebble]

hopefully it gets restocked soon

[velvet summit]

gas gas gas im gonna step on the gas (tonight i'll fly)

[proud jackal]

[rancid juniper]

nah thats not his real name, but i would call him that for fun sometimes

[opaque sedge]

Yay i can still name my delusional future pet theodore

[pliant berry]

According to this, I need a 5080/90

[mighty hazel]

Marketing propaganda

Just upgrade once it’s not reaching ur expectations

[dusk knot]

Right

My expectations are 1440p 240fps in every game on max.

[safe cape]

according to this i need to downgrade

[dusk knot]

What do you have now?

[nocturne flicker]

I upgraded to a 4790k, I should be set for 7 years

[sweet phoenix]

That's what the 7 in i7 stands for

[mortal grail]

Then in 4 years they tell you to upgrade

That's what the 4 in 4790k stands for

[nocturne flicker]

And then in 9 years they tell you you wasted your money you should upgrade now

[velvet summit]

the k stands for

[mortal grail]

Yep that's what the i9 experience is

[velvet summit]

https://tenor.com/view/ltg-gif-40123618314459872

[mortal grail]

It's what you say when they tell you to upgrade

This is all contractual

[velvet summit]

the 0 stands for how useful the cpu is

[mortal grail]

F is what you say 2 years before they tell you to upgrade that your cpu wasn't good enough

[nocturne flicker]

Nah, the 0 stands for your wallet's cash total

[velvet summit]

f stands for when you have random issues and cant test your cpu without a dedicated gpu

so you have to press f for respect since you cant troubleshoot

ong

[mortal grail]

T just means it's tiny

[nocturne flicker]

T for terrible

T for Troll product

[mortal grail]

It states the obvious

Intel weren't being very creative

[nocturne flicker]

https://tenor.com/view/intel-dead-inside-logo-gif-16821712

[tacit geode]

intel soon

or technially on consumer

[mortal grail]

Intel might pull back enterprise yeah

[nocturne flicker]

I've been dead inside since 17, no Intel cpu needed

[mortal grail]

But for consumer they're really having a bulldozer moment now

[dusk knot]

So my 5800x3d is good for 5-8 years..nice

That's what those numbers mean

🤔

[nocturne flicker]

Good for 3 years

[mortal grail]

3d means it supports 3d things

[nocturne flicker]

Upgrade now

Do it

[tranquil pebble]

3DNow lol

[nocturne flicker]

3DNow more like 3DWow

[dusk knot]

[proud jackal]

ITS AMD'S FAULT ARROWLAKE IS FAILING

[tranquil pebble]

[pseudo raven]

definitely on the longer end

quite an incredible cpu

9800x3d looks to be the same but

im going to sell my 3070 for 200 and upgrade to a 5080 or 70 hopefuly

I would like some lucky charm now

[mortal grail]

@sage sluice @proud jackal @rancid juniper so got time to explain now, my 7950X3D basically died about, 1.5-ish months ago. I sent it in for warranty with my board to the store. They told *me after reproducing what I found, for me to wait and see what to do. I noticed the 9800X3D was coming up and asked if I could even do a partial refund of the chip to trade to a 9800X3D.

About, 3? 4 days ago? I got an email saying they'll just refund me the full price of the 7950X3D.

I just went and immediately preordered the 9800X3D from them, I got the chip for "free". Lmao.

Something happened on their end and they couldn't complete the warranty changeover process, and their policy, which in line with national law means they opted for a full refund

[proud jackal]

thats not free

thats boy math

[mortal grail]

It is

It's a free upgrade

[proud jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/bookio-gif-13932157847762104386

[mortal grail]

I am up $400 in my account lmfao

I gained money

[dusk knot]

The law of equivalent exchange

[proud jackal]

but.....

[mortal grail]

Ya I lost nothing, I got to use a flagship for 2 years with no consequences

I paid launch price as well

No price inflation

I may also get a 48gb kit from them for some OC fun, we'll see

[dusk knot]

Very cool, Felix..you beat the system.

[mortal grail]

6400 synced was dumb easy to make work tho, who knows

[mortal grail]

My last 3 weeks have been me against the world I swear

But my pc store was super chill about it, I'm thankful for just allowing me to do that

[dusk knot]

Nice

[mortal grail]

I think the big relief about it though is I know the Gene I have is experiencing a separate issue

A manufacturer issue

They said the board is fine

So [shrug]

I'll fix it when I get the board back

[rancid juniper]

free is free

[mortal grail]

Ya

Freeeeee

Lmfao

So in the last, 6 months? I gained some 20-25% cpu bound perf in games

And I spent nothing

💀

[rancid juniper]

bro has to fastest gaming cpu in this server and for free no less

[proud jackal]

but

you spent money for the.....

[rancid juniper]

1% lows about to be smooth

[rancid juniper]

shhhhhhhhhh

[mortal grail]

All ryzen chips got big boosts from windows updates

[proud jackal]

[mortal grail]

I'm net zero overall tho

It's as if I bought a 7800x3d two years ago and they handed over a free upgrade

It's free

I got it for free, it's a free upgrade

That's the start and end of it lol

[proud jackal]

[mortal grail]

Gonna look good next to 285K

[proud jackal]

wait what

[mortal grail]

Sorry 13900KS

Runs with 14900KS performance

[proud jackal]

ITS OK

INTEL REP SAID THEY ARE MAKING FIXES/OPTIMIZATIONS

ARROWLAKE BACK ON TOP

[mortal grail]

Theo return that damn thing LMAO

[proud jackal]

ITS TOO LATE IM PASSED THE 14 DAY WINDOW

[mortal grail]

Well I warned ya

[proud jackal]

i ordered a open benchtable and lian li trinity aio to put the 285k on

[mortal grail]

There's one thing I am interested about with 285k

That's benching yeah

Funny numbers

[proud jackal]

FUNNY NUMBERS

DOPAMINE

[mortal grail]

But for a daily it's

It's not really any worse than a 14900k tho I suppose

It's like 10900K to 11900K type thing

[proud jackal]

tbh

if they at least get the 1% fps lows up

ill be happy with it

[mortal grail]

If they improve 1% to be better than a 14900K I'd call that a win

[proud jackal]

apparently there is a bunch of optimizations that need to be done

[mortal grail]

1% and 0.1% matter the most for typical uses

And intel has been very good on those up until now

I wouldn't hold your breath tho

[proud jackal]

THEY SAID THEY ARE FIXING IT

[mortal grail]

We saw nothing out of zen 5

[proud jackal]

[mortal grail]

Ya AMD said the same

Lmao

Then ALL ryzen got a perf boost

Instead of just zen 5

They couldn't make it better than their old work

[lone mango]

Theo would be a great destiny player

[proud jackal]

once all the wrinkles are ironed out im putting it in the ggflan pc

[lone mango]

THEY ARE FIXING IT GUYS

[mortal grail]

Ong

[lone mango]

BUY THE NEXT DLC IT WILL BE OK TRUST ME

[mortal grail]

It's a shame cos the apex looks so nice

If it was better I'd have jumped ship ngl

[proud jackal]

they said early december

for fixes

[lone mango]

Ok well will the platform at least last more than two years

[proud jackal]

otherwise im just going to wait till 9950X3D

[mortal grail]

The main reason I say this is natively intel is usually a lot cleaner of an experience imo

[proud jackal]

yeah

[mortal grail]

Like, install, load in, usually less issues

[proud jackal]

thats why i stuck with intel

[mortal grail]

But AMD are just gonna be better now

Cos am5 is great

[proud jackal]

SHUT UP MAKE IT STOP

[mortal grail]

[mortal grail]

I thought about this, but now I have two heavy workstations I've decided I don't need this

9800X3D is good enough

[wary fjord]

talk him out of it xD

its messing with his mind now

he might snap xD

intel widrawal is very concerning thing

[velvet summit]

theo needs a new xxl tank of copium

[mortal grail]

There are hints it could be better

But I'm not expecting anything

AMD promised the same and fumbled

[sage sluice]

Thats insane

[mortal grail]

Same kind of boost

Ya ikr

[sage sluice]

I wish i could be that lucky 😭

[mortal grail]

I used the 7950x3d for nearly 2 years

LOL

[wary fjord]

deym

[sage sluice]

Legitimately insane

[mortal grail]

Rip that chip tho

[wary fjord]

9950x3d when

[mortal grail]

It did 6400 synced with little effort

6400/2200

[wary fjord]

how he keeps getting away.. he always have "could be face xx years" over and over and yet nothing happen after that.. xD

this dude has plot armor

xD

[proud jackal]

i have a fully functioning 13900k and 14900k

[mortal grail]

Same

13900KF/13900KS

They both run like 14900K/S tho

Silicon lottery keks

[mortal grail]

Ya

I've been looking around for a while, but does anybody know how to make a custom ICC color profile calibration for a monitor by hand, that doesn't need a tool?

All I want to do is effectively lower the black level on my panel, as overdriving SDR content to HDR has a tendency to raise shadows severely on some media

[mortal grail]

Pretty sure you can do it

I wouldn't bother without proper tools though

[fair onyx]

Again, all I need it to lower the black level until it looks good to my eye. I just wanna do mock HDR for arcane season 2, basically. It looks so fantastic extended to HDR with the colors and bright spots, but the black levels get raised so much that it has really weak contrast

ideally, it could just display in HDR for me

[mortal grail]

Pretty sure nvidia has it in the settings just like this

My 4090 pc is out of commission rn so not checking there

But there's a menu for colour on nvidia panel

[fair onyx]

oh no crap, I am in here right now lmao

strangely, its not showing my main monitor in this menu... hmmm

[mortal grail]

Never used the new ui

It was in the old ui

Here:

[fair onyx]

it shows it here, but doesn't let me edit it... weeirrdddd

[mortal grail]

Pretty sure you could make custom settings here with any display^

[fair onyx]

thats sevrely limited in terms of settings, but maybe? I could see if it makes it better

[mortal grail]

I can't help if it's the new ui

Again, can't use my 4090 rn

The pc it's in has no cpu and I'm not disassembling it with my 9800X3D in the mail

[fair onyx]

oh, now my third monitor is showing, weird

[mortal grail]

If you revert to a driver with the old nvcp then you should be able to do it for any detected display

Even headless

Or dummy plugs

[fair onyx]

@mortal grailoh dude, putting contrast to 100% instead of 50 fixed it. Thank you!

the difference is night and day, like OMG

[mortal grail]

Np

If you use an oled screen for reference then that should help without any colorimeter input

Throw the same picture up on both screens

[fair onyx]

this is an OLED screen haha

QD OLED

[mortal grail]

I meant OLED OLED

[fair onyx]

Before and after, like damn

Helped so much

[mortal grail]

Most phones now ship with oled

You can also often adjust gamma in games

[fair onyx]

I have an AMOLED phone, AMOLED watch, AMOLED tablet, QD OLED monitor, and AMOLED laptop

[mortal grail]

I use a sony phone for colour referencing

There you go

Amoled is pretty solid for a reference

[fair onyx]

I don't care about accuracy, not for this. I just wanted it to pop more is all lmao

I wish arcane season 2 was native HDR, but oh well haha

[lone mango]

wow

So I was about to reset my windows installation but doesnt the keep files option still remove everything besides the main folders like pictures and documents

[fair onyx]

yikes

[lone mango]

Couldnt I just use the media creation tool and reinstall w10 so that way I can keep everything but reset the os

resetting also takes a while

[lone mango]

[fair onyx]

I mean, if you wanna game... That 7800X3D will still wipe the floor with the 14900 😅

[mortal grail]

Reset basically doesn't do anything

If you want to fix a windows install, wipe via bios and restart

Registry level corruption can persist between installs

So reset is like

Taking all the stuff away you wanted but fixing none of the things you set out for

A recovery disk can do better than a windows reset, depending on how bad it is

[mortal grail]

Kinda

If you move off the drive with the OS, the things you want to keep

You can recover most of it

Things like some installs mightn't work tho

And you may need to reactivate your windows key

Maybe it's LG woled panels that sux but idk I cna trust colors at my miniled than oled

[dusk knot]

That's not OLED

[opaque sedge]

Are you an ai?

[nocturne flicker]

Also Halloween has roots in Irish and Scotish culture and we had a ton of Irish immigrate to the US.

[opaque sedge]

Irish are the bagpipe folks right?

Or is that a different one

[dusk knot]

It's a pagan holiday unrooted in spiritism

[opaque sedge]

So people just celebrate it just cause?

[dusk knot]

Fun

Besides not knowing it's dark devil related origins

[nocturne flicker]

Scots are the ones associated with bagpipes

Ah

I was thinking UK in the back of my head

Makes sense

[nocturne flicker]

Though bagpipes are also an Irish thing too

[dusk knot]

I watched braveheart last night. The movie's more tragic than I remembered

[nocturne flicker]

Anyways, when the Irish became tolerated in the US, Halloween was just one of the things that got picked up in US culture and then candy companies swooped in and made it a shell of itself
