[muted creek]

i build day before new year

and didnt use till gpu got here like 3 weeks later

[mental yoke]

its only been crashing recently?

[muted creek]

today

is first time

[dense locust]

So it was fine for a month

[muted creek]

after i got helldivers

[dense locust]

And a half

[muted creek]

yeah

[dense locust]

Does it only crash with helldivers or everything

[mental yoke]

4 times crash today

are you... what is that

[fresh timber]

Define everything

[muted creek]

ive run rainbow six, cs2, fortnite, mc u name it

[muted creek]

only hell divers

[idle nexus]

if your GPU has two power connections & you're daisy chaining a single one, you might be pulling Overcurrent Protection on the PSU if it's a multi-rail PSU

[mental yoke]

ngl this looks like ur firewall is blocking helldivers

[fresh timber]

Do you have PBO? my other system would shut off if I had it enabled and put a load on it

[muted creek]

no, its twon

two

[mental yoke]

can u open helldivers and alt tab and make sure ur not being prompted to allow helldivers to run ok

[fresh timber]

Would that cause his pc to shut off

[fresh timber]

Remove extensions

[mental yoke]

oh switch is ocing?

un-oc, test, come back

[dense locust]

Wait you’re overlocking?

[fresh timber]

Does anybody read the edit I made

[muted creek]

duuude, i gotta go find a screw driver now

[muted creek]

no

[mental yoke]

i cant read

[fresh timber]

You had an excuse But slime girl? Ehh had time

[mental yoke]

slime girls?

[fresh timber]

@dense locust is slime girl

[muted creek]

ill try again, monitor temps whole time

[mental yoke]

oh i was like super interested for a moment

moving on

[muted creek]

i cranked up fan speed

[mental yoke]

go back to this menu and sort by "level"

its a clickable button

[fresh timber]

Ru sure that cooler is good

Its fineee

[idle nexus]

ah heck it's a single-rail. There goes my theory

[dense locust]

Im In class

I have an excuse

[mental yoke]

ive debated buying rosewill many times but i cant

[muted creek]

i swear, me and my buddy litterally joked about removing it

while removing it

[mental yoke]

reinstall helldivers, non jkoingly

[idle nexus]

run hwinfo before you take your CPU cooler off for no reason lol

[muted creek]

hell divers seems to running ok, decent fps, peaks at 70 degrees

scratch that, 78

[fresh timber]

Not even the problem rn, it’s hardware

[mental yoke]

its been like 2 minutes it needs to stabilize

[muted creek]

gpu, not cpu btw

[mental yoke]

its been working fine for 1.5 months and only helldivers is crashing?

[dense locust]

Couldn’t they test their gpu to see if it runs stable?

[mental yoke]

just reinstall helldivers

[dense locust]

If it black out during a test it’s 100% hardware

[muted creek]

but it didnt do it last night which is weird, played a solid 4 hours no problem

[dense locust]

If it’s stable then reinstall helldivers

[dense locust]

What game did you play for 4 hrs

[muted creek]

gpu is staying level at about 78

[muted creek]

hell divers

[dense locust]

[muted creek]

and about 3 hours of cs2, and fortnite mixed today

perfectly fine

till i fired up hd

[dense locust]

Did you change resolutions?

[muted creek]

no

[dense locust]

Odd

Still you can stress test the gpu to see if it’s a hardware failure

Or some type of hardware issue

[muted creek]

what temp does it black out at

cus when i start fighting it hits 82-84

gpu

[fresh timber]

Get 3d mark demo

[velvet summit]

thermal shutdown is probably more around 95-100c, somewhere around that probably

[muted creek]

then a doubt its that then

[fresh timber]

Have you used DDU and reinstalled gpu drivers

[muted creek]

nope

[fresh timber]

Do they

[muted creek]

aaaand, of course

drivers need an update

lets see if this helps

[dense locust]

If it doesn’t do ddu

[muted creek]

remind me cus im new to pc stuff, whats ddu

[idle nexus]

Display Driver Uninstaller

https://www.guru3d.com/download/display-driver-uninstaller-download/

[dense locust]

Completely uninstalls a driver

To make sure it isn’t another driver causing issues

[idle nexus]

unzip it to a folder like downloads or something easy to find

[muted creek]

does it unistall all drivers?

[idle nexus]

GPU ya

also, make sure your chipset driver is installed after you DDU

[muted creek]

cool, but im a bit of an idiot and dont really know how to use it.....

[dense locust]

Only gpu drivers

[idle nexus]

then on Start type msconfig

[dense locust]

Can’t you just hold shift when hitting restart

[idle nexus]

you can do that too ya

ig that's easier cuz you don't have to undo it

[muted creek]

Aaaand, it crashed before I could read that

[idle nexus]

but holding shift then restart, it'll go to RE & you have to go to Startup Settings then restart & it's like Fsomething to select safe mode

lol install hwinfo fr

[dense locust]

It crashed before you could even do anything?

[muted creek]

Yeah, bout a minute ago

On phone

[dense locust]

That’s not good

Was it just on desktop not doing anything?

[idle nexus]

check Event Viewr now

[muted creek]

dude, i was reading yall instrucions, hadnt done anything, and it turned off

[dense locust]

Looking more like a hardware failure by the min

[muted creek]

nope

[dense locust]

[muted creek]

uh, went to download hwino.... thing, and uh

what?

[idle nexus]

Local (U.S)

[muted creek]

ool

cool

[idle nexus]

just picking the server to download from

[muted creek]

k

ok, downloaded, now what

[dense locust]

Install it

[muted creek]

did that

ok, redid driver update, lets try again sall we?

[dense locust]

Ok

[mental yoke]

meow

[muted creek]

gotta love being an idiot eh?

i redid drivers, hasnt crashed yet

tho it say in amd adrenaline that hottest temp was 93

Never mind

Just went out on me

I’m out of ideas

[dense locust]

Ddu

[muted creek]

alr how do u do a ddu thing

[mental yoke]

did you reinstall helldivers already?

[muted creek]

nope, i guess i should do that

[mental yoke]

yes thatll be the next easier step

because going into ddu and further is like point of no return stuff

[muted creek]

best method to uninstall things?

[mental yoke]

is it on steam?

[muted creek]

yeah

[mental yoke]

just right click the game, uninstall

let it uninstall, then go reinstall

[muted creek]

alr

ik uninstalling other games can be a pain sometimes

[mental yoke]

if u wanna be extra u can wipe registry during the period of it being uninstalled and before reinstalling but it prolly shouldnt matter much

but id not worry about it

[muted creek]

idk man, this is so weird

[mental yoke]

its a new gpu and one game and ur win log was throwing http request errors

[muted creek]

i mean, i played a mission and it said hottest temp was 90

i dont think its temp

almost brand new psu

[mental yoke]

ive never alluded anything to temp

[muted creek]

cpu is below 70 whole game

i just dont know

[mental yoke]

its the computer

[muted creek]

and im not good enough with pcs to figure it out without help

[mental yoke]

cus if the computer didnt exist this problem wouldnt exist

[marsh lynx]

Gonna be impossible to get the cpu tomorrow I’m guessing

[icy ore]

Crisps 🛑 just wrong

[dusk knot]

british

[dense locust]

I’ve used ddu without going into safe mode and it was fine
Probably shouldn’t do that tho

[mortal grail]

Uh yeah

Don't

Had enough people do that in my presence and ddu if anything made things worse not better

Safe mode is to properly disable the drivers

If you don't follow that step you risk trouble lol

[craggy shoal]

lol I’ve never used DDU in safe mode

I raw dog DDU

[mortal grail]

Ever since kenzie proved that ruining the driver can come from something as simple as not using safe mode I have always made a point to encourage using it

Kenzie was no offense, proof that not using safe mode wasn't idiot proof at all

[craggy shoal]

Nah I’m raw dogging it lol Kenzie didn’t know how to use a computer

Couldn't even mount hard drives

Gotta raw dog life sometimes. For me, that’s every moment I get

lol

(Obviously this is a joke. I'll start using Safe Mode from now on lol)

[mortal grail]

You can do what you like with ddu lol

But I would highly encourage safe mode

Safe mode just completely assures that the steps were correct honestly

[craggy shoal]

Man I forgot my JBL 🫠

I just got to my gf's apartment

the JBL is two hours away 😭

FFFFFFFF

MacBook Air speakers are okay I guess

[dense locust]

I live on the edge

[undone fulcrum]

Why can’t I post pics?

[craggy shoal]

This guy thinks he can post pics as soon as he joins a server

try sending a gif lol

[undone fulcrum]

Wut r requirements?

[craggy shoal]

idk

try a gif though

[opaque sedge]

Ngl jp kinda thinking u shoulda just bought an xtx or a 4080s last year

[rancid juniper]

Managed to find the wire and shut it off

Now it's down to 6 case fans working instead of 7

Eh

[dusk knot]

https://tenor.com/view/kebron-help-help-me-drunk-drunken-gif-23723159

[opaque sedge]

Hmm i kinda wanna switch out the fans in my case for black artic ones

The rgb is headache inducing next to a monitor

[rancid juniper]

Ugh I don't want to open up my PC entirely but I might consider it

[opaque sedge]

Kinda want a sleek cooler too but the thermalright is more than sufficient for now

[dusk knot]

next gen upgrade from what you already have is never wise

[rancid juniper]

Na I'm too lazy, leaving it there unless thermals goes bad or smth

I'll slightly increase fan speed to compensate

[frigid stag]

Nah I should’ve upgraded straight after next gen

Would’ve been on a 3090 ti now

[velvet summit]

probably not? those used to embed fine afaik

[mortal grail]

I remember saying this at least once or twice

[dense locust]

1000mm fans running at 10000rpm

[fresh timber]

o god

LMFAO @sweet phoenix LTTSTORE.COM WAS SENT TO THE DAM ISS

[pliant berry]

wasn't that a while ago

[fresh timber]

yes

[tranquil pebble]

debating on buying this

[fresh timber]

you think the iss will get starlink?

[sinful blade]

Over $50 mouse

Opinion invalidated

[fresh timber]

??

[tranquil pebble]

it has 8k polling rate, QMK, and a MCU potent enough to run Doom on. lol

[fresh timber]

im ngl, u gotta spend more than $50 for a good mouse

sure theirs good options at the $50 point but they are not near the best

[rancid juniper]

This will forever trigger me until I swap another fan

[tranquil pebble]

heckin 100 MHz Cortex M in it

[fresh timber]

just fix it

take it appart, lube it up see how much longer it last

[rancid juniper]

@mortal grail thoughts on 9950x3d?

[rancid juniper]

Lol

[proud jackal]

do we buy 9950x3d hmm

[rancid juniper]

No

Unless you're a super heavy user

[dense locust]

If you need a productivity cpu for cpu specific tasks it’s ok
If not it’s not worth it

[rancid juniper]

^^^

[fresh timber]

if i had the money i would buy a 9950x3d just to have a ryzen 9

i do quite enjoy having alot of cores for running more vms

[frigid stag]

I doubt the 8khz on it is usable for a mouse this cheap

[proud jackal]

i need extra cores to moderate this discord channel.

[fresh timber]

lol

[frigid stag]

Op1 8k is what you’d want

(1 of) Best mouse ever

[fresh timber]

IM ngl if i had 16 cores and 128gb ram i would be set for compute,

[dense locust]

My mouse has 16k dpi

I use 4200

[frigid stag]

Nice

[rancid juniper]

You made theo coin right? Now make TheoAi for moderation

[dense locust]

Who uses 16k

[frigid stag]

Idk

I had one with 25k dpi

[dense locust]

I have a viper

[frigid stag]

Based

8khz?

[fresh timber]

im nfl

ngl

i wouldnt mind ai powered modderation if it included asking for permission before acting

[frigid stag]

It would probably end up like Reddit mods

[dense locust]

It’s wired

[azure plinth]

My pc just made a loud pop and won’t turn on anymore

[fresh timber]

if theirs human intervention it cant be that bad

[azure plinth]

Is my psu fryed?

[frigid stag]

I had a v8k still miss that mouse

[dense locust]

[frigid stag]

Now they’re a bit more expensive (10x what I paid)

[fresh timber]

u could train the AI on your servers rules and give it like a ffew million examples of rule breaking in the server

[rancid juniper]

🤔

[frigid stag]

Would probably take a long time to train

Ironically it might be better than mods in some servers I’ve been in

[dusk knot]

i built my uncles pc with it....its very good for how cheap it is

[frigid stag]

got banned from one for posting a cat gif

[fresh timber]

yeah

if it just pings mods to verify its breaking the rules, or the mods using human context and descression to let it slide, i got no problem

[mortal grail]

WHY WAS I PING

REEEE

[fresh timber]

@mortal grail

[mortal grail]

9800x3d with amdip and a 9700x slapped onto it

[fresh timber]

is it like the 7950x3d and 7800x3d with slight difrfences or nah

[frigid stag]

[rancid juniper]

💀

[fresh timber]

if its just a 9800x3d in gaming easy

[elfin mural]

https://videocardz.com/newz/radeon-rx-9070-xt-outperforms-geforce-rtx-5080-in-cyberpunk-2077-and-3dmark-after-undervolting-3-3-ghz-clock-reached

it's an oc beast huh

[fresh timber]

LMFAO

i want one even more

[dense locust]

Stock 5080

[frigid stag]

I want to get a 14900k/f and some fast ram and see if it can gap the 9800x3d

[fresh timber]

i want nvidia more, but u cannot beat that.. being in stock

[elfin mural]

yes

[fresh timber]

overclocked 5080 has risk of blowing up cause poo connector

5080 misses rops too

[frigid stag]

I know they can beat the 7800x3d but the difference there is 3 to 4% stock

[elfin mural]

it's literally free perf if you can get this perf with a uv

not even feeding it more voltage btw

[dense locust]

Also silicon lottery

[fresh timber]

are u feeding the 5080 voltage to reach a 4090?

[dense locust]

Not all gpus will overclock this well

[elfin mural]

not really, the vbios would block you anyway

[frigid stag]

I haven’t seen a single 5080 yet that doesn’t do 3ghz

[rancid juniper]

feels good man

[fresh timber]

im sure most will get similar tbh unless urs is just poo

[mortal grail]

Exactly what it is

[fresh timber]

o

[mortal grail]

It's just better fleshed out by drivers

[fresh timber]

so in theory the 9950x3d might end up being slightly slower

[frigid stag]

Nvidia did a decent job binning them

[elfin mural]

but it's nice to see it perform better than a stock 5080 like this

[fresh timber]

did they evre fix the problem with games using wrong ccds and stuff

[elfin mural]

cuz it's much cheaper

[dense locust]

The only promise is the clocks listed on manufacturers website
Overclocking headroom will always be a lottery

[elfin mural]

so it's a plus, tho an oc'd 5080 will be faster

there's no denying that

[frigid stag]

They’re all within the same range

[fresh timber]

with enough voltage anything is possible

[rancid juniper]

if thats what they can pull off with RDNA4 man imagine what a flagship might look like

bruh

[fresh timber]

they have to BINN those gpus anyway, i doubt their will be ones who cant evn go up 50mhz

[frigid stag]

They didn’t make one cause not enough people buy them

High end buyers buy nvidia

[dense locust]

$2000 Radeon

[fresh timber]

@frigid stag overclock ur ram, 4000mt/s already gives me some gains over 3200

[frigid stag]

You got 4000 working?

[fresh timber]

somehow cheaper than a 5090

[frigid stag]

Damn

[rancid juniper]

Gear 1 no less

[fresh timber]

ye! the timings are a bit loose but i do gain performance in things that like ram

aka my cpu is a ddr5 cpu running on ddr4 so it wants the bandwith

[frigid stag]

Did you buy new ram or something

[fresh timber]

nope!

im running FOUR sticks of CORSAIr

[frigid stag]

Damn

Impressive

[gentle canyon]

https://tenor.com/view/tookyt-moderator-among-us-there-is-a-moderator-among-us-hamburger-gif-15679451419090778699

[fresh timber]

EVERYONE SAID CORSAIR IS BAD, BUT HERE I am WITH TWO KITS!

[elfin mural]

5090s in chinese black market (not 5090D) are going for as much as 5k

[frigid stag]

On 4 sticks that’s rlly high

[fresh timber]

YES

and im 90% sure im stable!

[mortal grail]

Two *micron bins

You got the like 1 in 50 shot on both lmao

[dense locust]

Coarsair? No the air is pretty smooth

[frigid stag]

I tried overclocking mine but it doesn’t go over 3400mts

[mortal grail]

Getting rev E is like winning at a casino

[elfin mural]

most corsair ddr4 kits aren't good at all

you simply lucked out

[mortal grail]

Most people get samsung C and many of those aren't even xmp stable

[fresh timber]

what can i say, im just extremely lucky

i got four of these bad boys https://www.corsair.com/us/en/p/memory/cmg16gx4m2e3200c16/vengeancea-rgb-rs-16gb-2-x-8gb-ddr4-dram-3200mhz-c16-memory-kit-cmg16gx4m2e3200c16

im ngl the rgb on them are sexy asf

[mortal grail]

Guess that makes me even more lucky cos I bought two rev E kits years ago of theirs

Not just 1 but 2 lmao

[fresh timber]

i kinda wnana get two sticks of ram and see how far i can take a good DJR or something

[frigid stag]

My ram might’ve been some low bin bdie ngl

[mortal grail]

Likely was

[dense locust]

Gay lighting

[mortal grail]

[frigid stag]

Cause the xmp profile was like 2900c14 or something like that

[fresh timber]

i only run red

[fresh timber]

damn

mines is cl16 24 24 something

[dense locust]

buys rgb
r

[fresh timber]

i rn im running cl 19 26 26 56, i might be able to get that 4th one down

26 and 26 might be the limit 24 24 likes to crash and fail

they need to make more dummy sticks, my pc looks mad weird with out 4 sticks

[dense locust]

My Coarsair ram has been running for 5 years therefore Coarsair ram is good/j

[frigid stag]

Dummy sticks?

[fresh timber]

mines ovreclocked 800mt over the xmp, corsair good

[fresh timber]

it sram that goes into the slot and only does rgb

no ram action

[frigid stag]

They make those?

😭

[fresh timber]

yes!

[frigid stag]

Never heard of that before

[fresh timber]

https://www.newegg.com/p/pl?d=dummy+ram

vcolor makes some

if their ram wasnt so mf ulgy id check it out

[frigid stag]

[dense locust]

Make the death faster 🔥🔥

[mortal grail]

Vcolor unironically a good way to get h16a lol

[fresh timber]

ngl i could probably get 4133 to run if i loosen everything more

lets just say this faster ram makes me no longer interested in ddr5

ill buy ddr5 when my ram dies, or i have money to waste

[dense locust]

Ah, so soon?

[mortal grail]

[Dies tomorrow]

[fresh timber]

if it dies tommrow i can only afford new ddr4 kek

my friend runs four teamgroup rgb sticks, i wonder if i can get them to run 4000

he has the same cpu as me

he got this

like 2 years appart tho,.. like me kek

[frigid stag]

Ram is cheap now huh

[dense locust]

DDR4 is

[fresh timber]

i kinda wanna put that in my server but i should get 32gb for it

[mortal grail]

Ram is ram

[fresh timber]

lmfao my 2nd rig has two mixed kits

[gentle canyon]

https://tenor.com/view/meme-gif-20591327

[fresh timber]

its funny

my question is how the 3002 kit runs the 3730 kit with 0 tuning other than running the faster sticks xmp profile

[mortal grail]

Both are micron is the reason

[fresh timber]

oh

[mortal grail]

You just have like 4 kits of micron dude

[fresh timber]

Lmfaoooo

all my ram is micron

i have a teamgroup stick but it doesnt work :/

[mortal grail]

Bro hit the micron lottery

[frigid stag]

Corsair doesn’t make their own ram ics so they’re all some manufacturer variation

[misty sparrow]

their brand logo screams that "graphic design is my passion" meme

[frigid stag]

Most are hynix iirc

[fresh timber]

oh my god, i just need a 16gb ramstick and i can have a 3rd pc running with out a gpu

i want more micron

[fresh timber]

all my ram can run super fast, can yours?

[misty sparrow]

go catch your ram then

if they're so fast

[fresh timber]

the 3rd system has a motherboad with a dead ram channel ;/

[mortal grail]

Yes, all mine are hynix or b dead

[fresh timber]

get 4 sticks and join me brother

4000mt

if i loosen my timings even more you think 4133 would be worth

[mortal grail]

Uh no thanks

I'm sticking with ddr5

Lol

My gskill royal elites can go pretty high

I don't have a cpu anymore worthy of them tho

Gonna sell them soon tbh

[frigid stag]

I’ll take them for 30 bucks

[fresh timber]

idk if i could get them to run gear 1

also i dodnt know 4000 gear 1 is so rare

my hommie runs that on his 5600g

[frigid stag]

These?

[frigid stag]

That cpu can do so much more ngl

5600g is like a gem for ram overclocking

[mortal grail]

Yeah

[frigid stag]

Wow interesting aesthetic

[mortal grail]

3600 14 DR bthe elites

[fresh timber]

o

[mortal grail]

They're actually nicer looking irl

[fresh timber]

can a r5500 do fast ram?

[frigid stag]

Ye I think

[fresh timber]

the 5500 is just a 5600g with outthe G

[frigid stag]

I like the non elite ones

[fresh timber]

...

[lone mango]

Yeah royal goes hard

[fresh timber]

umm

[frigid stag]

Ye this can do it

[fresh timber]

only thing limiting me is that motherboard...

https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/B450M-GAMING-PLUS/Specification

[mortal grail]

Non-elites look like the cheap chinese knockoffs next to these

[frigid stag]

The elites look like someone extruded some polygons in blender

[fresh timber]

oh

aparetnly the motherbaord doesnt support the 3733 i have installed

[mortal grail]

I love(d) that look

[misty sparrow]

is that top part supposed to look like there's a crystal inside? pretty cool but why

[mortal grail]

I paid a bit for them too years ago

[misty sparrow]

it looks wrong in so many different ways

[frigid stag]

How much

[mortal grail]

Messed with them, now they just chillin on my desk atm

[mortal grail]

Idk a lot is the easy answer

[frigid stag]

Ye

Rhinestone look

[misty sparrow]

rhinestone?

[frigid stag]

300$?

[mortal grail]

Probably

I actually don't remember the price

[frigid stag]

It looks like rhinestone ye

[mortal grail]

I bought them in like 2021

[misty sparrow]

i thought it was diamond or sapphire

[mortal grail]

That's a lot of poop

[hoary zodiac]

[misty sparrow]

[mortal grail]

A machine, that turns excessive yoghurt into poop

[misty sparrow]

[hoary zodiac]

I don't even know if I'm lactose intolerent

Time to find out I guess

[mortal grail]

Lack toes and toddler ants?

[fresh timber]

i set to slim and it no slim

[misty sparrow]

[rancid juniper]

it seems that marvel rivals is using the latest XeSS version

[misty sparrow]

doesnt look like the launcher

[fresh timber]

yeah

[fresh timber]

a game thats updated?

[fresh timber]

i dont have the launcher installed to begin with lol

[rancid juniper]

a few days ago yea

wtf this is nuts, the visuals are SO CLEAR???

[dusk knot]

fsr4?

[rancid juniper]

Na, XeSS 2.0.1

[dusk knot]

looks very sharp

woah

[rancid juniper]

Fr

I'm running it with Max RT

[dusk knot]

i really dont feel like getting a 9070xt

[dusk knot]

radeon isnt mature enough yet imo

[rancid juniper]

you don't have to

[misty sparrow]

discord compression is probably hiding artifacts or something

[rancid juniper]

Yea you'll have to play it on your machine to see it

But it does work!

[mortal grail]

Says who

[dusk knot]

im waiting to see if i can get a 5080 fe

[dusk knot]

me

😏

[mortal grail]

JP that's a really strange way to say "I want same or better RT performance"

[dusk knot]

https://tenor.com/view/haha-so-funny-gif-27253208

you got me

[mortal grail]

Yeah I don't even need you to confirm that I just know

[dusk knot]

i dont waint to fall behind

[misty sparrow]

yes because it isn't 18yo

[storm narwhal]

You won't be

[mortal grail]

Did you see the prices for the 5080 here JP

[dusk knot]

👀

[mortal grail]

A 9070XT costs 1139 here in AU

[misty sparrow]

ATI models dont count

[unreal trail]

[mortal grail]

4070 super 889

Or thereabouts

[dusk knot]

hm

[mortal grail]

9070XT sounds, odd, right?

However

XTX costs near 1400

Or used to

[misty sparrow]

i'm not joking, gotta be 18 before i can at minimum call you mature

[mortal grail]

Which is...accurate-ish

And then you get to 5080

2800

[dusk knot]

also today i learned that AU has the oldest continential rocks on earth at 3.8 billion years old. very cool

[misty sparrow]

in the US market, i've seen 9070XTs selling for higher than 5080s on ebay

[mortal grail]

We also have the most dangerous spiders

[dusk knot]

australia is older than dirt

[mortal grail]

I was able to order a near msrp model pulse for about 3-4 days here

Compared to a few hours for 50 series at best

[misty sparrow]

well i guess you can say msrp got a pulse

[dusk knot]

its ebay. go figure

[dusk knot]

waiting for ngreedai to pull out my name and choose me for the fe 5080

[misty sparrow]

is amd gonna do a thing where they initially say the price of something is low and then raise it

[dusk knot]

the Verified Priority Access program better work, jensen

[mortal grail]

I forewarned this

Do not be surprised if they do

The tariffs have already set the stage for it but AMD has said they're encouraging msrp beyond the launch

So wait and see

[fresh timber]

if all els fails ill buy a used 7900xt

[misty sparrow]

"encouraging" is like being on the sidelines watching a fight in the street happening instead of intervening

it'll still happen

[mortal grail]

Yes

Yes you read that correctly

[rancid juniper]

Left (XeSS 2.0.1 - Quality)
Right (1440p Native)

[mortal grail]

XeSS is based

[rancid juniper]

i freaking love it

like damn, intel really went good with this one

[mortal grail]

They went the good

They really made better

[unreal trail]

[rancid juniper]

im happy with the fact that it can run without the use of Arc battlemage

i guess the battlemage ai cores just makes it run faster

[dusk knot]

damn.super sharp. after switching back and forth multiple times, native has slighty more detail when you pixel peep....

in certain areas

[rancid juniper]

Absolutely

[dusk knot]

after that at first glance, its perfect

[rancid juniper]

Still native wins but XeSS is up there

[dusk knot]

yeah

still want a 5080

performs better with adobe programs

[rancid juniper]

NGL Intel is slowly turning me from an upscaling hater to someone that finds it alright

[dusk knot]

it was never a real problem

just a few PC gamers feeling too entitled

[misty sparrow]

meanwhile I changed the DLSS version of Dead Space 2023 and it looked no better than TAA High

[wise wigeon]

Oh damn well the reaper combos are gone

[misty sparrow]

it looked worse than TAA High

[wise wigeon]

but the pulse combos are here

and my 5070 ti got delayed

[dusk knot]

[wise wigeon]

wut

[rancid juniper]

I just realized that there's little to no shimmering in the distance

Big W

[dusk knot]

y-you bought it

[wise wigeon]

like last week?

like saturday

[dusk knot]

no. nvm

[wise wigeon]

welp pulse combos being available erases my thermal and noise concerns

and its corsair psus that are on the nicer end

but

why the white psus

@mortal grail which pulse combo man

[misty sparrow]

pulse only makes amd cards right?

what about sapphire? dont hear anybody talk about them much here, at least for 9070s

[rancid juniper]

this is nuts

[random osprey]

pretty sure thats cyberpunk, not nuts

[wise wigeon]

pulse is a saphire model

[misty sparrow]

oh

[rancid juniper]

Oh

[misty sparrow]

will it eventually look like this though

[rancid juniper]

Lol no

[wise wigeon]

My concern with the reaper combos was getting a worse psu and an overpriced MSRP card with a kinda doodoo cooler

[misty sparrow]

hmm alright

you think a 4090 is doing something like this?

[wise wigeon]

the combos for the pulse are good corsair psus

and the pulse itself is just a cooler and quieter cooler

[dusk knot]

PT 😩

[rancid juniper]

probably

[dusk knot]

with a ton of mods

[misty sparrow]

why are you getting aroused by realistic-looking graphics

i'm not even going to bother wondering

woah...its not like that

this is basically like Spider-Man 2 from the PS5 Pro reveal where you can't tell the difference between PS5/PS5 Pro

[rancid juniper]

Mad accurate

[dusk knot]

hmmm

[mortal grail]

Did they really give it a 4.5 star simply because it's $700

They didn't even raise the price over last gen

[icy ore]

Yup

[misty sparrow]

It's like playing Where's Waldo but on a screen displayed by a console that costs several times more than a Where's Waldo book

[mortal grail]

What an absolute blockheaded scathe

[misty sparrow]

imagine playing Where's Waldo with a PS5 Pro and thinking "hmmm where are the smoother pixels and sharper textures on this tiny ass crevice hmmm"

[mortal grail]

285K, 14900K, 13900K, all been $700

[icy ore]

“Pros

+Fastest 16-core chip in gaming
+Near-parity gaming with the 9800X3D (on average)
+Productivity performance
+Fully overclockable
+Energy efficient
+AVX-512 support
Cons

-Pricing”

[mortal grail]

Why is a 9950X3D in a mid-inflation period at $700 still, a bad thing

That's a real pepega con

[icy ore]

It is not meant for a typical consumer I don’t think that’s an unreasonable price tbh

[misty sparrow]

there's a reason "X" and "D" are in the name, take out the 3 and you're left with "XD" meaning the pricing is an intentional troll

[rancid juniper]

XeSS 2.0.1 Quality (LEFT)

No u, no u

Yes me

[misty sparrow]

maybe if you turn on photo mode i could maybe spot things better? because only thing i notice is maybe some slight LOD in distant objects

but really slight

but the differences in how people walk and animations in general are kind of distracting

[rancid juniper]

I went straight into photo mode after changing graphics settings

When I leave photo mode the game resumes

Does not take me back to settings

[icy ore]

You’d figure there would be a button or something

[wise wigeon]

its a mix of shifts, rmx and rme 2025

[rancid juniper]

Nope

[mortal grail]

The cheapest

[wise wigeon]

yeah i figured

but ngl I kinda wanna pay the extra shipping

[mortal grail]

I'm a simple man lol

[wise wigeon]

but yeah with the reaper I could justify the 70 ti

but against the pulse not really

[dense locust]

[wise wigeon]

pulse is a significantly better cooler

[misty sparrow]

even simple men have dark secrets sometimes

i mean you had a 4090

[mortal grail]

I still do

[mental yoke]

hadve

[mortal grail]

I'm not selling it

[wise wigeon]

my dark secret is that I wanna pay for extra shipping to get the XT this week

[mortal grail]

[mental yoke]

the one time i did this it got delayed one day

[mortal grail]

If you prefer go for it

[worn wave]

I give about 0 craps to an upscaler comparison not in motion (though the "native" image should also be in motion to highlight TAA smear)]

[mental yoke]

so 5 bucks for nothing

[mortal grail]

Don't wait

[wise wigeon]

see thats the thing

[mortal grail]

You hesitating causes you these issues

Pick the lane and commit

[mental yoke]

ive learned to do this in my car. im going over that big ass rock. go

[misty sparrow]

is this you (but with 5090s instead of bread)

[rancid juniper]

how tf is framegen so responsive???

[mental yoke]

mmmm jacket bread

[misty sparrow]

you just open your jacket and say "i got the goods"

[wise wigeon]

well like i said before the reaper vs the ti model i ordered was a tossup because the benefits if the ti + the better cooler

[misty sparrow]

they think it's drugs but it's actually 5090s

[wise wigeon]

but now the pulse removes the cooler worries

[mental yoke]

grind them up and snort them

[mortal grail]

Go order it then lol

[wise wigeon]

yeh i am i'm just figuring out if i wanna pay shippin

[mortal grail]

I mean the reaper cooler is fine imo at 41dbA cos some 4090s are louder than that

[mortal grail]

Pay it

Buy now before it disappears

[mental yoke]

not worth

[wise wigeon]

yesh but the pulse is 25

[mental yoke]

they ship it as fast as they can

just order it

[icy ore]

I hate paying shipping man

[mortal grail]

Like seriously pick the card and decide first

It'll disappear if you wait too long

[icy ore]

They get me every time cos it’s either like “spend $10 more and get free shipping” or pay $8.99 for shipping

[wise wigeon]

i mean i'm paying shipping anyway its a just how much more

[mortal grail]

Me I'd wait

But pay it if you want it

[wise wigeon]

waiting means like mid week next week

[mortal grail]

$25 is a nothing burger imo

This isn't a kit of ram or ssd it's a $600 gpu and a $100 psu

$25 is nothing

[wise wigeon]

[mortal grail]

Well either way pick fast

[rancid juniper]

Very exaggerated

[dusk knot]

yes, that of a black teen

[wise wigeon]

hmm if it I start the refund for the ti bundle would they just return to sender rn?

or would i still be aiting for it to come it and returning

[mortal grail]

Not a clue

[wise wigeon]

because they're still like days out from arriving anyway

[mortal grail]

If this was amazon, return to a return point

[mental yoke]

this is a big fat maybe

just depends on a lot of factors
