monitor I had to return was straight up not updating consistently

so everything was choppy

maybe. but also blacks smeared so bad it made text hard to read

RTings downplayed that issue pretty bad too

Last part sounds like VA. All VA panels apart from the very expensive ones have poor pixel response times, esp black to grey/color (turning pixel on) response times.

tranquil pebble
#

Yes it was VA. I will know to avoid VA now.

#

IPS feels fine to me though.

north crescent
#

I wonder if there are even any VA penels being produced that have good response times anymore. It was basically a specific Samsung panel that was pretty insane for a VA panel, but it was like for Samsung's 2020 SuperUltrawide stuff or smth of sorts. Prolly was killed for other stuff that would be high end, like QD-OLED.

tranquil pebble
#

only decent VA I have seen is my 40 inch 4k Samsung TV

#

it doesnt have the issues I had with the LG VA

I have a g32qc VA and blacks/reds annoy me

VAs can be fine. The one I returned was anything but.

Intel saying they don't care about consumer cpus is wild

Intel has been targetting businesses for years. That's why when you go to your local library you'll see a Core 2 Duo sticker

No more Pentium and Celeron, no low end skus to be seen

You know, like a 12500T performing the same as a 12100F (in my experimenting

gilded kraken

does T stand for throttled?

craggy shoal

Actually really nice though if you can get a second-hand micro PC with one of those CPUs and use it for a low-powered server

Stands for tiny or something. Besically a cut down version of the normal cpu for lower cost applications

The only thing the rumors say are non lettered and F sku Ultra 5s derpyBlob

I wish AMD had a 35W TDP CPU fr. The AMD CPUs I'm using in my servers are all 65W and it's annoying when you have multiple servers 🫠

#

Are they even making an Ultra 3?

#

Just make an Ultra 1 at this point

#

Just complete garbage CPUs

nocturne flicker
#

The possible 265T and 285T will have a tdp of 35w

craggy shoal

As they always have (talking about TDP)

Probably still won't get them lol. I'd like to try a 14500T though if that's a thing

# opaque sedge Are living room pcs a thing?

They were first called HTPCs (Home Theatre PC) and they ran Windows until they died off (around like 2016). They're kinda being brought back with Bazzite OS (fork of Steam OS)

#

You need an AMD GPU for Bazzite OS though (I think Intel is gaining support for it now could be wrong though)

nocturne flicker

The only thing I can find is a rumor from August about an Ultra 3 for Arrow Lake

yes

Doesnt seem to be the case for me. Least, from what I can see. I got a order that got into my province the other day, and tracking says delivery date has been updated, but nothing has changed on NewEgg.

you can look at the tracking number with the courier and see if it's any different

if it can top out at 400 then its already a winner

I'm old enough to remember when these were just a word with different fonts on each letter wth

the second one is wild

#

I had to skip it. I really had no idea what I was supposed to do there

#

PWM splitter. You get power directly from PSU molex & PWM (how fast fans spin at various temperatures) from the motherboard without overloading the motherboard header. You might have to use two tho. the biggest one I've seen is 6 fans.

#

actually don't buy that

#

I had to splice on a fan extension cable to the PWM side & heatshrink it again cuz the crappy connection fell off

tranquil pebble
#

lol

idle nexus
#

& just yesterday I had to bend the little metal craps that keep the molex connection inside the plastic housing because it fell off too

tranquil pebble
#

wow

#

temu-tier quality

idle nexus
#

which of course means first I had to turn on a PSU & test to make sure I didn't put it on upside down lol

#

also the little connection things are terrible & have to be guided into the molex connection

idle nexus
#

I love nexusmods

#

me like 2 hours ago: "dammit I hate how S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2 makes me wait for shader compiling everytime I open it."

now if only someone could do something about how awful it is to have to type out S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2

did it burn the substrate or like leave burn marks on the contacts?

The SSD died just a couple days ago, presents the same symptoms the 7950X3D system had

Asus style

Safari sucks

mortal grail

wait a minute

maybe I should worry

also wth Asrock

mortal grail

If yours is doing what I just described then it's dying

#

LOL

idle nexus
#

SSDs are fine for now but

#

85C & 1.358 SOC voltage??

mortal grail
#

But the SSD that started it all presents the same symptoms if I plug it into any pc

idle nexus
#

isn't 1.3 VSOC hard limit by AGESA?

mortal grail
#

1.358 SOC is way too high

#

Yes

#

You should be always under 1.3

idle nexus
#

lol I have like 1.255 set

mortal grail
#

Tf

#

Weird bios

idle nexus
#

Asrock does whatever it wants

mortal grail
#

Maybe the bios is doing it in

idle nexus
#

dude I set 1.255 for VDDQ & it just ignores me

mortal grail
#

Mine stays solid 1.26 if I do 1.25 set

idle nexus
mortal grail
#

Those seem fine

#

But vsoc should not be that high

#

Maybe it blipped or misread

#

If it's doing that a lot tho...not healthy

I wondered why I could run FCLK at 2200 for benching

It got a full refund

Launch price money back, I dumped it into a 9800X3D

#

I've been using the 9800X3D for a few days now

#

On and off tho cos still messing with some stuff

gleaming rivet
#

are amd cpus much better than intel this round?

idle nexus
#

damn I should really start not ripping pieces off my CPUs lol

#

way better

#

like embarassing

mortal grail
idle nexus
#

9800X3D's only competition rn is 7800X3D & it crushes it lol

gleaming rivet
#

so 13th gen isn't as good as equiv amd?

idle nexus
#

by like up to 26% sometimes iirc

mortal grail
#

But it can't compete

idle nexus
#

like brand new 13/14th gen & installed on a board where latest microcode is already there

mortal grail
#

Bios updates and microcode fixes have pushed it way down from competing with the AM5 X3D parts

gleaming rivet
#

I see.

#

I haven't upgraded bios/microcode since I got this cpu..

mortal grail
#

9800X3D also has no heat issues

gleaming rivet
#

How long has it been felix?

mortal grail
gleaming rivet
#

over a year now I believe

mortal grail
#

Degrading IA VR line leading to oxidation of the tantalum nitride layer in the IMC(?)

#

It's a slow burning candle

gleaming rivet
#

ah

idle nexus
#

btw Felix, not that you'd care at this point or that I'd expect you to, but I took apart this stupid 7900X3D for the 17th time & the contact frame was kinda loose... so maybe my issue was just poor contact? probably not but I'll enjoy my blissful ignorance for a few more days until this thing craps out again

mortal grail
#

You might be fine now, but later, not a chance

gleaming rivet
#

well I suppose I could stop playing WoW for a few minutes

idle nexus
#

I destroyed my award winning cable management to test the PSU

mortal grail
#

Do you not use a DD frame

gleaming rivet
#

idr how to upgrade bios/microcode atm though

idle nexus
#

lol I did

#

but officially there isn't one for X3D CPUs

gleaming rivet
#

from my mobo manu right?

mortal grail
#

Ye

idle nexus
#

or there wasn't when I built this at least

gleaming rivet
#

which mobo do I have.. hmm

mortal grail
mortal grail

so I got some tin snips & a dremel & made a non-X3D frame work

well tried to make it work

oh rihgt. I jumped on the white strix train for mobo

Also

#

The role means nothing lmao

idle nexus
#

lol you get um... random pings from naht lol

gleaming rivet
#

so with the bios.. I know sometimes you have to do certain bios in increments right? Do I need to do that with this?>

somber skiff
#

I should disable mention on that role

mortal grail

Once it boots back up to windows it's done

hoary zodiac
#

oh you can ping all the techies?

mortal grail
idle nexus
#

lol naht is all powerful

hoary zodiac
#

lol

idle nexus
#

I think you could use motherboard software to update in windows (which is sus but apparently works?)

hoary zodiac
#

would you trust windows tho

idle nexus
#

lol if only we had a viable option

hoary zodiac
#

Isn't it just

insert usb
go into bios
find the update option
select the right file
wait for it to finish and DO NOT PRESS ANYTHING
let it reboot
new bios

#

or is it a gigabyte motherboard

idle nexus
#

or computer off but power still on; insert usb with BIOS in root folder into usb port labeled "BIOS"; press whatever button does flashback; wait for lights to do stuff that says good to go

hoary zodiac
#

oh he's got flashback

idle nexus
#

I assume so since it's 13th gen but stranger things have happened ig

hoary zodiac
#

oh

#

is it standard on 13th gen boards?

idle nexus
#

I think both my Z690s & Z790 all have it but not entirely sure

#

I know Z790 does

#

but no idea if it's standard

hoary zodiac
#

oh yeah that's fair

#

would be weird if a Z board didn't have flashback

#

I don't like buying B boards unless they have flashback

idle nexus
#

Z690 Dark has a little usb port inside the case & comes with a tiny 15gb USB that's to use for drivers & BIOS

#

or at least that's what I've always used it for lol

hoary zodiac
#

I mean I probably won't need it 9/10 times but you never know

idle nexus
#

definitely good to have

#

like boards with multiple BIOS in case it gets borked

hoary zodiac
#

my laptop bios was acting funny

#

luckily it wasn't funny enough to brick itself

idle nexus
#

heck I think Z690 Dark gives you the option to have at least 3 if not 4 different BIOS at a time

hoary zodiac
#

I didn't even know it was the bios unless I flashed it out of desperation

#

How do bioses corrupt anyways

idle nexus
#

how the heck did EVGA die? like dammit their cards were great. the motherboards were great

hoary zodiac
#

at least we have Sapphire for AMD fans

idle nexus
#

I don't actually know tbh

#

maybe if you try to flash with a really unstable overclock by accident

storm narwhal
#

Didn't they just like

#

quit making gpus

hoary zodiac
#

It's a laptop so it's even more peculiar

idle nexus
#

their PSUs were great too

hoary zodiac
#

ehhh

#

hit or miss

#

high end yes

#

low end

#

nah

idle nexus
#

well most of them that were like >/=850w lol

hoary zodiac
#

true

#

these days MSI's stepping in where EVGA left

#

I actually haven't heard anything bad about MSI psus

idle nexus
#

my dad is using a 530w EVGA PSU I got for Prime Day for like $24 or something silly

hoary zodiac
#

which is a good sign

#

must be an old psu

idle nexus
#

he's using 5600G with no dGPU for his office stuff so it probably never even hits like 50% load

hoary zodiac
#

yeah that's fine tbh

idle nexus
#

wait jk

hoary zodiac
#

I usually don't like using older model psus for modern systems

idle nexus
#

it's a 510w EVGA BP lol

hoary zodiac
#

oh

idle nexus
#

I got it in 2021

hoary zodiac
#

those should be the better ones

#

C tier maybe?

idle nexus
#

they were so confident it in its performance that it only has a 3 year warranty lmao https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BPCN23NT/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

hoary zodiac
#

yeah C tier

gleaming rivet
#

Good thing I'm updating bios. Realized I xmp wasn't enabled lol

idle nexus
#

oh wait that's the link from my orders but wrong PSU

#

oh well

hoary zodiac
#

Spec C tier but still decent

idle nexus
#

tbh I only got it to run tests on custom loop crap

hoary zodiac
#

I mean for $24 that's a steal

#

even for a gaming pc

#

as long as you don't use up too much power that is

#

maybe a 4060ti or something

#

It's reasonably safe for a budget gaming pc

#

It's hard to find a psu that won't explode at $50

idle nexus
#

heck luckily it hasn't had issues for my dad's PC so it worked out great to me

#

what's weird is EVGA PSUs are the only ones I have that if power blinks for a second, they don't turn off the computer

hoary zodiac
#

hmm

idle nexus
#

like the Thermaltake PSUs & the one Enermax one I have will shut off & have to reboot & what not

#

EVGA stays on even when it loses power for like 1-2 seconds oddly lol

hoary zodiac
#

maybe it's something to do with how they wired the capacitors? Idk I'm not an electrician
