#

ah okay

#

let me look one more time

rancid juniper
#

memory interleave on too

#

i dunno if its placebo or not but disabling power down did make things a bit snappier

idle nexus
#

if you drop tWRRD_sg to 28 (which will drop tWTR_L to 8), it won't run?

rancid juniper
#

haven't tested

idle nexus
rancid juniper
#

i can only do so much with 3000M/T

#

1% lows did improve a bit tho

idle nexus
#

does it split tRCDRD & tRCDWR on DDR4? I know it does for DDR5

rancid juniper
#

I would love to set trefi to 65535 but my ram doesn't have a temp sensor so I wouldn't dare try going up like that

rancid juniper
#

i just saw tight timings and used them lmfao

#

(did do extensive stress testing tho)

idle nexus
#

like for your primaries in BIOS, is it tCL 14; tRCDRD 16; tRCDWR 16; tRP 16; & tRAS 32?

#

so it's more like your primaries are 14-16-16-16-32

#

instead of 14-16-16-32

rancid juniper
#

i gotta check

idle nexus
#

HWiNFO doesn't always pick that one up iirc

rancid juniper
#

i wish i had that asrock timing configurator or whatever

#

but it doesn't work on my board now

idle nexus
#

AMD doesn't split them

idle nexus
#

you're on MSI

#

use DragonBall

rancid juniper
#

MSI Z690 Pro-A

#

lmfao dragonball

idle nexus
#

sorry wrong one

#

that's for setting CPU voltages & multipliers

rancid juniper
#

ok

idle nexus
rancid juniper
#

hope it works for the latest bios

idle nexus
#

if not lmk & I'll try to find it

rancid juniper
#

ok

#

thanks!

idle nexus
#

both work on Unify-X as long as Chipset driver is installed

#

np sorry I should've sent that to you forever ago

#

derp

#

do you have Asrock Timing Config version 4.0.14? that's latest I have

#

dunno if it's actually latest

#

it always read tWR kinda goofy iirc

rancid juniper
#

i tried that, didn't work

idle nexus
#

dragonball should be best for MSI since they made it lol

rancid juniper
#

@idle nexus

#

works

idle nexus
#

if you change that to on, you can actually change timings in Windows though I wouldn't recommend doing that lol

rancid juniper
#

i would never

#

feel like it would corrupt stuff

idle nexus
#

your feelings are correct lmao

#

I've only ever done that on bench ISO that I don't care if it gets borked beyond even starting sometimes lol

#

aside from trying to further drop tCWL (by raising tRDWR_sg/dg/sd/dd to like 16 maybe?) to 12, I don't seem much else to do tbh

#

or if you want to try for tWTR_L 10 or 8 but I usually run 12 on DR anyway

#

they'll do 2/6 for tWTR_S/L sometimes but probably not worth it anyway

rancid juniper
#

i see

idle nexus
#

one more thing you can do

#

in the same place for memory timings in MSI BIOS

#

there's a thing called Memory Training Algorithms or something like that

#

it's up by the top above tCL, tRCD, etc.

#

change "Round Trip Latency" from "Auto" to "Enabled"

rancid juniper
#

what does it do?

idle nexus
#

the board will make an extra effort to tighten latency settings

rancid juniper
#

wild

#

would be funny if it decided to loosen some of them

#

especially those ive took time tweaking

idle nexus
#

these will come down maybe 1-3

rancid juniper
#

๐Ÿ‘€

idle nexus
rancid juniper
#

aint that sound like "Memory Try it!"

idle nexus
#

just tighten latency timings

#

lol no it's not a crap shoot like that

rancid juniper
#

LMFAO

idle nexus
#

back on 10th gen, you could manually tighten RTL/IOL

#

I actually enjoyed doing it cuz it lowered latency

rancid juniper
#

mmm latency decrease ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

#

there's one more thing i want to mention: MSI Memory Bandwidth Enhanced

idle nexus
#

for D1 you were trying to get 60/61 4/4

rancid juniper
#

i wonder if it can actually push anymore bandwidth from 3000mhz

rancid juniper
idle nexus
#

if you had high frequency with low tCL (this is from screen shot of 4533c14), you could get lower than 60/61 4/4

rancid juniper
#

insane

idle nexus
#

4533c15 on 10700KF with 59/60 4/4 lol

rancid juniper
#

๐Ÿ—ฟ

#

wow

#

i could never reach that

idle nexus
#

I don't think anyone can after 11th gen tbh

#

DDR5 is like at least double that

dusk knot
#

Does micro center sell the FE edition?

#

Of NgreedAi cards

idle nexus
#

tbh not sure

#

FE is usually nice looking but relatively weak on performance

#

I think 40xx was exception

rancid juniper

40 series FE was pretty good

1080ti FE

dusk knot

idle nexus
#

you have 3080ti FE?

dusk knot
#

They have me by a chain

rancid juniper
#

we gotta break JP free

dusk knot
idle nexus
#

oh right

#

same

hoary zodiac
#

Loyalty is not rewarded in this industry

dusk knot
# idle nexus oh right

Do you think I should wait for 60 series? I don't think our 3080tis are suffering enough for an upgrade

idle nexus
#

3080ti is still pretty heckin good imo

dusk knot
#

Yeah .....

idle nexus
#

12gb isn't a limitation quite yet

dusk knot
#

That's the problem

#

I need 20gb at least to have no worries

#

5090 would be a great upgrade if it wasn't insanely expensive lol

rancid juniper
#

$2000

REAL PRICE: $2500+

#

โœ…โœ…โœ…

idle nexus
#

4090 seems like kind of a silly upgrade for 3080ti

#

I say that

#

even tho I did exactly that

#

but lol

dusk knot
#

Sigh...in the mean time

#

Traveling

idle nexus
#

I mean, what game(s) are you playing that you're not satisfied with how they play?

#

I can't think of a better reason to upgrade than that tbh

dusk knot
#

ARK survival ascended

idle nexus
#

like ya I want a crazy one for hwbot but better to do what I'm saying not what I do lol

#

12gb isn't enough or the GPU is too weak now?

dusk knot
#

Both

rancid juniper
#

saw his FPS dip so hard on marvel rivals

#

hatin on the card now

dusk knot
#

Below 100 FPS I can feel it

rancid juniper
#

already bad

#

send to me

dusk knot
#

By the way are you free to play?

rancid juniper
#

You don't do motorcycling right?

idle nexus

lol no way

#

by itself, heck no

dusk knot
#

Huh. What did you do?

idle nexus
#

in Sourth Florida? you're out of your freaking mind

#

tried to be cool likes James Bond or something at a friend's house

#

except when I did my little like run & sommersalt type thing

#

there was a very inconveniently placed tree root

dusk knot

You learn from your mistakes

idle nexus

Lol

#

Trying to get 240

#

Even DLSS performance mode cannot get me that

idle nexus
#

what's your monitor refresh rate?

dusk knot
#

240

#

I have the LG OLED

#

Overwatch is so much more optimized

#

I'll wait for 5080ti

idle nexus
#

tbh I kinda doubt they'll add VRAM tho

dusk knot
#

Or see if I can make extra money to get a .....5090

sweet phoenix
dusk knot
#

I feel like I'm being pushed around here

#

Lol

sweet phoenix
#

I'm just curious

dusk knot
#

3200mhz 32gb

sweet phoenix
#

Dipping below 100fps on rivals is weird

rancid juniper
sweet phoenix
#

Same, but we dont have a 4080

idle nexus
#

5800x3d could probably run 3800mhz but I don't think that would be a major difference

rancid juniper
#

i could just bring down the settings tho

dusk knot
sweet phoenix
#

I'm thinking rivals is very cpu intensive

rancid juniper
#

i have the game set mostly to 1440p ultra except shadows

rancid juniper
#

ikr

sweet phoenix
#

I get 80 fps ish at mostly medium settings on a 13600k/2080 ti

rancid juniper
#

i chose visuals over performance in a competitive game

sweet phoenix
#

I think rivals is just poorly optimized

dusk knot
#

Come on, compooper

#

Smh

#

Frames win games

#

๐Ÿ˜”

rancid juniper
#

hey i like pretty visuals

dusk knot
#

So do I

rancid juniper
#

i mean worst case it will go as low as 57fps

#

with everyone beaming at each other

proud jackal
rancid juniper
#

so true

#

ill probably set everything to "high" except for textures

#

that'll stay at ultra

idle nexus
#

isn't it UE5?

Someone close this engine from ever being used again

rancid juniper

yfg

fresh timber
fresh timber

its fixed now

#

im getting up to 200 fps

rancid juniper
#

bunch of 13600k users up in here

#

โœ…

fresh timber
#

rivals is good fps now, im getting 140-200 at all low

#

at 1440p

rancid juniper
#

still can't beat overwatch's numbers

dusk knot
#

240 or riot

fresh timber
#

no more fps drops like it used ot be

fresh timber
#

look at all the ps4 users crying

dusk knot
rancid juniper
fresh timber
#

my friend with a 1660 super can run this game at 70 fps just fine

dusk knot
#

70....

fresh timber
#

??

#

dont see a problem with 70fps

rancid juniper
dusk knot
#

Yeah

fresh timber
#

70 fps when u can only see 60 of it kek

rancid juniper
#

well if you're into heavy comp fps is needed here

dusk knot
#

For RPGs, 70 is fine

fresh timber
#

frankly what iv learned is

#

even 60fps is fine for rivals

worn wave
fresh timber
#

iv played on my ps5 and pc, both i can frag out

fresh timber
#

its skill issue if u suck at 60fps

worn wave
#

๐Ÿคข

rancid juniper
fresh timber
#

what rank did u peak?

worn wave
#

170-200 fps in Rivals using balanced upscaling is NOT "optimized" lmao

fresh timber
#

want to go back to before where i was getting 100fps??

#

they double it

#

it had random 30fps in season 0

#

they really fixed alot of their issues

#

all the complaints the community had

worn wave
#

Ok so it's more optimized than before, but still bad lol

fresh timber
#

i say it runs better than 99% of other titles

rancid juniper
#

what other titles do you speak of?

#

โ˜ ๏ธ

worn wave
#

UE5 slop

lone mango
#

100 fps in a game like that is not much

#

Should be like double that

worn wave
lone mango
#

Oh the 100 was back then

#

So 100 with upscaling

#

to 170 with upscaling

#

170 should be base

sweet phoenix
rancid juniper
worn wave
sweet phoenix
#

I've got a 2080 ti

#

Not too much worse

lone mango
#

just get 50 series bro

sweet phoenix
#

I'm fairly sure my 13600k is degraded

#

I should probably benchmark it to check

#

Ill go do that

#

I'm also running 3200mhz ddr4 so I'm sure that's not helping

The usb isn't showing up in m-flash

I don't get his cult of personality

He's the biggest man child and somehow people actually worship him

He takes credit for other people's work

Department of government excellence or something like that

But it does align with the president-elect's internet troll personality

#

Honestly I'm not surprised he'd make a department called doge

Supposed to be like a debloating thing for the government

The biggest bloat to the economy imo is the military

sage sluice
hoary zodiac
#

It's a massive deficit hole

sage sluice
#

old games made of polygons? so is his truck

#

doge? old ass meme

hoary zodiac
#

They really need to redirect some of the funding to the economy

pliant berry
#

Imo a lot of it is directed at military and schools where they would spend money for the sake of keeping their budget for the next year

hoary zodiac
#

Because they can't prop up a military if the economy just tanks

sage sluice
#

my conclusion is elon is a crappy time traveler

lone mango
hoary zodiac
#

Like they don't have to permanently cut the military budget

sage sluice
lone mango
#

They can cut military and still lose a lot of money

sage sluice
#

idek at this point

lone mango
#

They would just lose a little less

hoary zodiac
#

I doubt it

#

To be fair

#

The money has to be used effectively

Iโ€™ll use a 1gb vram gpu

hoary zodiac

Destroys the GT 1030 too

fresh timber
#

As a display out only no gaming

I edited vBIOS already to change max GPU voltage from 1.3 to 1.4 & memory from 1.6 to 1.7

#

can't squeeze much more

hoary zodiac

Drivers not so much

#

But yeah back then you can get away with a decade old gpus

#

Nowadays the gap keeps growing

#

It's amazing how much the industry has evolved in these past 5 years

They are basically the same

fresh timber

Just rivals isnโ€™t dead

sweet phoenix
#

I wonder if its the usb drive

idle nexus
# dusk knot Oh ...those

I wonder if you soldered bigger ICs onto 3080ti to make it 24gb & ran 3090 vBIOS on it if it would work lol

hoary zodiac

#

Fat32 iirc

lone mango
#

just jump around shooting at each other with a healer behind you

hoary zodiac
#

Hmm

#

That should be ideal

fresh timber
hoary zodiac
#

Unless it's a hardware issue

idle nexus
sweet phoenix
#

Usb, im using the bios flashback button now and it's still not working

fresh timber
#

Remember the 3090ti has faster vram

hoary zodiac
#

yeah I'd try a different flash drive if you got one

fresh timber
#

People soldered a 4090 to a 3090ti board and got more performance

idle nexus
sweet phoenix
tranquil pebble

idle nexus
#

the BIOS has to be in the root folder of the usb drive iirc

sweet phoenix
#

I followed msi's tutorial on their website

fresh timber
tranquil pebble
sweet phoenix
#

Oh yeah it is

#

It's not in a folder

idle nexus
#

my MSI BIOS files had names like these

hoary zodiac
#

The names shouldn't matter

sweet phoenix
#

It did, that's if you're updating it in bios

fresh timber
#

Is it weird Iv never used a usb drive to update bios

sweet phoenix
#

Using flashback you have to name it for MSI bios

hoary zodiac
#

ohhh

idle nexus
#

Also, can't you update BIOS thru heckin MSI Center?

#

in WIndows?

sweet phoenix
#

Never tried it with how horrible it is

idle nexus
#

I know Gigabyte & Asus do that iirc

hoary zodiac
#

Have you tried updating it through bios

idle nexus
#

oh and

hoary zodiac
#

Instead of using flashback

idle nexus
#

did you connect to the USB that says "BIOS" around it

#

and has a square

tranquil pebble
hoary zodiac
#

I don't like the idea of software tweaking my hardware unless it's a script that only I could access

tranquil pebble
#

Exactly

hoary zodiac
#

cough ryzen master cough

#

Piece of crap

idle nexus
#

lol I like software tweaking hardware tho

#

MSI AB

#

etc

tranquil pebble
#

I dont like the security implications of it

hoary zodiac
#

I'm fine with it if it's a simple script like auto-cpufreq

idle nexus
#

imagine setting GPU/mem offset in BIOS

hoary zodiac
#

Or ryzen controller on windows

fresh timber
#

Does your bios have a option to update through the bios it self off a internal drive

tranquil pebble
idle nexus
#

isn't it called like MSI EZFlash or something?

tranquil pebble
#

inc HDDs

hoary zodiac
#

That's why I don't play certain games

tranquil pebble
#

This is a function that IMO should require getting into the BIOS settings

idle nexus
#

btw

tranquil pebble
#

or flashback button

sweet phoenix
#

If it doesn't work this time I'm just rolling with old bios

#

Bc I've tried everything

idle nexus
#

best plug-in since uBlockOrigin

hoary zodiac
#

Revanced has sponsorblock preinstalled

tranquil pebble
idle nexus
#

& now a segue to our... nope

sweet phoenix
#

And its not working

hoary zodiac
#

Raid shadow-

sweet phoenix
#

Why is the bios flashback button lit up red no matter what

#

Whether I have anything plugged in or not

#

It flashes 7 times every time and then stops

#

Which is the code for a failed flash

tranquil pebble
idle nexus
#

try it again with the original BIOS name?

sweet phoenix
#

Tried it alr

#

And tried it using m flash

idle nexus
#

you extracted it not just renamed?

#

sorry for dumb question just making sure

sweet phoenix
#

Yeah

#

No nw

idle nexus
#

which motherboard?

sweet phoenix
#

I appreciate it

#

Z690 a pro

#

Currently on 2022 bios

#

October

fresh timber
#

Sell cpu go 12tb gen kek

idle nexus
#

DDR4 or 5 version?

lone mango
#

Best to just not watch at all

sweet phoenix
#

Ddr4

#

Also hold up

lone mango
#

Sometimes the sponsorblock entries arent that good

hoary zodiac
#

LinusSponsorTips

lone mango
#

Like it will just abruptly cut or cut too late

sweet phoenix
#

Tell me why bios doesn't recognize the ssd i have windows on

mortal grail
#

MSI.ROM

hoary zodiac
#

That's what he did

mortal grail
#

It should work, fat32

sweet phoenix
#

I did

#

Nothing

mortal grail
#

No no

#

You don't get it

sweet phoenix
#

MSI.ROM

#

Capitalized

fresh timber
#

Bad

rancid juniper
fresh timber
#

Baca has skill issue??

mortal grail
#

Ok then it's MSI.rom

#

It's capital specific

sweet phoenix
#

Msi YouTube says MSI.ROM but I'll try it

mortal grail
#

I always get it wrong

#

But then I change that then it works

#

It's failing reading it

hoary zodiac
#

Imagine if it's that stupid

idle nexus
#

you renamed the .1k0 file not the .txt file right? lol

hoary zodiac
#

$200+ msrp motherboard and it's case sensitive

lone mango
sweet phoenix
#

Yeah

rancid juniper
#

did not happen to me

sweet phoenix
#

I had the issue when I first built the pc

mortal grail
sweet phoenix
#

Of not naming the bios right

idle nexus
#

maybe leave it like that & try to use EZFlash in BIOS?

rancid juniper
#

i just flashed it with whatever name it had, put it on usb and then ez flash or whatever they call it

rancid juniper
sweet phoenix
#

MSI.rom didn't work either

rancid juniper
#

i did not renamed ANYTHING

hoary zodiac
#

What if you needed flashback

idle nexus
#

reboot straight to BIOS (elevated CMD): shutdown /r /fw /t 0

hoary zodiac
#

For whatever reason

mortal grail
sweet phoenix
#

Yes

rancid juniper
mortal grail
#

That file is the only file on the stick?

sweet phoenix
#

Ill try msi.ROM ig

#

Yeah

#

Formatted it before

velvet summit
idle nexus
#

since you're all the way back on 2022 BIOS, maybe pick one between latest & yours & flash that first

hoary zodiac
#

msi.romania

sweet phoenix
#

I'm trying a 2023 January file

fresh timber
#

try sooner

#

kek

sweet phoenix
#

I was trying October 2023 but tried older once it didn't work

idle nexus
#

sometimes it wants you to update Intel Management Engine in Windows before BIOS update

rancid juniper
sweet phoenix
#

I'm on October 2022

idle nexus
#

not that I ever bothered to but

sweet phoenix
#

There isn't sooner

mortal grail
#

Try msi.rom

#

LOL

hoary zodiac
#

Would be funny if that worked

lone mango
#

are you changing the extension name too

idle nexus
rancid juniper
fresh timber
#

update sop

#

sop needs updating

idle nexus
#

when you try here it says it's not a valid file or something?

sweet phoenix
idle nexus
#

oh what the heck

sweet phoenix
#

Just shows other stuff from random years

#

Some as far back as 2017

idle nexus
#

do any other drives show up?

sweet phoenix
#

Yeah

rancid juniper
#

have you tried formatting that drive?

idle nexus
#

try saving it on root of another drive? lol

sweet phoenix
idle nexus
#

actually root doesn't really matter if you're not using the button on the back no?

Ok let me yell at file explorer for a second

fresh timber

MID CONSOLE

#

i hate all nint endo

rancid juniper

extendo

hoary zodiac
sweet phoenix
#

Why THE HELL is it when you rename a file and change letters to uppercase it changes it back to lower case instead of saving

#

Same vice versa

#

Stupid as hell

rancid juniper
#

bruh

hoary zodiac
#

Windows moment

idle nexus
#

do you have "view file extensions" enabled in explorer?

#

cuz renaming it, might not change the file type otherwise

lone mango
idle nexus
#

i.e., if you renamed boot2bios.txt to boot2bios.bat, explorer would have it named boot2bios.bat.txt

lone mango
hoary zodiac
#

๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

sweet phoenix
idle nexus
#

ah okay heck

#

so it says .rom file & asked you if you wanted to change file type & all that ig heck

sweet phoenix
#

Yeah I'm over it

#

This is an issue for whoever gets the motherboard when I sell it

mortal grail
#

I don't blame bacca for hating this

#

It is genuinely an annoying part of msi's bios update button

#

Lol

icy ore
#

Poor bacca

sweet phoenix
#

I've had so many issues with this too

mortal grail
#

It is definitely just not seeing the filename it wants tho

sweet phoenix
#

Like I've tried so many different things

#

Literally replaced my gpu

idle nexus
#

on top of what? lol

mortal grail
hoary zodiac
#

Maybe this specific motherboard is annoying

sweet phoenix
#

Reset my ram oc, disabled e cores, checked ssds, undervolted, idk what else

mortal grail
idle nexus
#

for reference or memory?

sweet phoenix
#

Whether it's named or not

mortal grail
#

Are you sure this is fat32

#

If even mflash can't see it

sweet phoenix
#

Yesv

#

It sees the ssd

#

Just not the bios file

mortal grail
#

Have you unzipped it on the ssd

sweet phoenix
#

I reformatted it even to make sure

#

Yes

mortal grail
#

Ok so the file is on the ssd

#

Stock name?

#

Go find it, mflash can read off the ssd

sweet phoenix
#

Im trying the newest bios

#

Deadass last try because I need to go

mortal grail
#

If it doesn't work after this I'd be wondering if maybe msi uploaded the wrong bios

hoary zodiac
#

oh my god

hoary zodiac
#

does anyone uhh

sweet phoenix
#

My current bios version isn't on msis website

hoary zodiac
#

Does anyone know how to use tftp

sweet phoenix
#

They took it down

mortal grail
sweet phoenix
#

Theres versions older than mine on there

mortal grail
#

Ye but revisions stay

sweet phoenix
#

Yep not working

mortal grail
#

Wow tf

#

That's not normal

sweet phoenix
#

On top of msi bios being completely unnavigatable

#

Never touching an msi mobo again

hoary zodiac
#

MSI fell off after b450 tbh

sweet phoenix
#

Only reason I have it is it was cheap on amazon warehouse

hoary zodiac
#

Asrock and Gigabyte are making better stuff

rancid juniper
sweet phoenix
#

OH GREAT

mortal grail
#

I think it's a bit of a valid take tho, their bios software is ridiculous

hoary zodiac
#

I used to slam gigabyte for dogwater bios on low end boards

sweet phoenix
#

It didn't flash bios but it reset my bios settings

#

GREAT

#

THANKS MSI

rancid juniper
hoary zodiac
#

Gigabyte seems to be decent-good these days

rancid juniper

Asrock

rancid juniper

should've been like this

Are gigabyte bottom barrel boards still crap?

Why is it so overcomplicated now

Why does bios show my ram at 2666mhz but windows shows 3200mhz

why is there multiple

sweet phoenix
tranquil pebble
#

BIOS bug then probably

rancid juniper
#

also for the flash drive, do NOT use it on port labeled for flashing, just use it anywhere else (Front panel)

fresh timber
#

thank you discord for not supporting av1

sweet phoenix
#

Why do computers not work the way they're supposed to

mortal grail
#

He can't have a bios bug if he never even flashed

sweet phoenix
#

And now bios shows 3200mhz

#

Get tf out of here msi

rancid juniper
#

seriously, after i flashed my bios to support my 13600k i have no need for the flash port anymore

mortal grail

Compooper doing exactly the opposite to what I do

Anyways most third party controllers typically come with one or two caveats some might be feature rich and great overall quality but then suffer from stick latency flydigi vader 4 pro is a good example but its apparently been serviced thru firmware updates, some are just right in technical departments almost perfect even but may not be as feature rich like most gamesirs

You gotta remap them to the buttons alr present in a typical gamepad thru their respective app unless it supports steam input where u can do macros i believe
