general-chat

[fresh timber]

i dont need better cpu anyways

ever sense i went 1440p my gpu has been sluggish to me

[lone mango]

Idk I looked too much into zen 6 and got kinda hype

I may get it...

[fresh timber]

next year

wait no this year

right

no ne xt

[lone mango]

Yeah seems like the plan is next year

[fresh timber]

ill take a zen 6 x3d chip

or go 9800x3d on a discout

[lone mango]

x3d cpus are still fresh, zen 6 coming out would just wipe those out

[fresh timber]

depending on my money ill go all out on platform with a non x3d until the x3d releases hell i might even go for a used 7800x3d to hold me out

[lone mango]

I spent 600 and now zen 6 came out

Fellas am I cooked

Type posts appearing

Goes hard

I forgot this is 1440p nvm

[fresh timber]

laughs in fastre cpu

i spent less 👅

[royal crow]

unplayable

[lone mango]

When you buy the 9950x3d and it gets owned in the same year

[fresh timber]

lmfao

honeslty id go for a 7950x3d

[acoustic palm]

Lf better cpu then me

[lone mango]

True

The default window when turning off fullscreen is 480p

[fresh timber]

how mcuh fps u get

[lone mango]

Small window

20

On the tiny window I get 35

[fresh timber]

my laptop from like 2015 with some crappy chil does better

my rooms hot asf fan time

[dusk knot]

Hm

Open windows

Too

[lone mango]

100 fps 1080p with an ultra light shader

My intel laptop is in the 70s

[cursive oasis]

Hey, what's better? An rx 580, or a gtx 970?

[tranquil pebble]

Might be getting laptop with a 13th gen i7, RTX 4060, 16 GB of RAM for $300. There is a major caveat though... it has a history of cola being dumped on it... but it still functions. The person selling it to me is someone I know and is also going to clean it up and allow me to stress test it and stuff.

[lone mango]

I think the 970 was around a 1060, which is also what the rx 580 is around

[lone mango]

[upper rain]

more like 980, but yeah

980 = 1060, 980 ti = 1070. bar vram differences ofc

[lone mango]

Rx 580 then

[tranquil pebble]

I will be able to thoroughly inspect basically every aspect of it

[lone mango]

Especially if 8 gig

[lone mango]

[upper rain]

580 by a pretty decent margin, yeah

[cursive oasis]

OK bet, thanks

I got a 970 from a friend, and my brother has a 580 so I was gonna replace it with that if it was better

[upper rain]

4GB version should be about 10-20% faster, 8GB version will be that + whatever gains you see from having a usable vram buffer if that is an issue with 4GB cards in any of your games

[cursive oasis]

Ok, imma use it with my mini PC then until GPU prices stop being ridiculous (hopefully)

[upper rain]

totally understandable haha

[frigid stag]

Eh the 10 series are better

Maybe at launch they were the same

[upper rain]

probably by a bit with drivers by now, but same sort of ballpark

[frigid stag]

Difference started being noticeable a few months after

And 970 is like 3.5gb vram

[lone mango]

I think polaris got better over time too

[upper rain]

it did, yes

[lone mango]

Really anything from 2016 to 17 was great

[upper rain]

polaris, maxwell, pascal, even RDNA 1 to an extent were all excellent generations

[lone mango]

True rdna aged pretty well

[frigid stag]

Rdna 1 was complete garbage

[upper rain]

Turing sort of got the ball rolling as far as massively anticonsumer practices go. but then, it was also the start of Nvidia's shift away from gaming, so perhaps it's not so much anticonsumer as it is anti our specific type of consumer and very much pro professional/datacenter/enterprise/etc.

[lone mango]

Pretty bad start but they worked it out and now the 4th iteration is one of the best arches

[frigid stag]

Expensive paper weight with unusable drivers. Some of them still are in a way since they were hardware flaws

[upper rain]

selling Navi 21 A0 silicon was an enormous mistake, but if you didn't purchase at launch you got revised silicon, and drivers were sorted pretty quickly. not so much for the A0 cards though, which is where a lot of those persistent issues with drivers come from that generation

a small minority with basically defective GPUs that drivers could never totally fix for the longest time

[frigid stag]

It took over a year

[upper rain]

sorry not 21 that's rx 6000 lol. what is it, navi 11?

[frigid stag]

I know someone who had a “few” of them. The issues are more common than people thought

[worthy meteor]

RDNA 1 hardware was was pretty good, drivers on the other hand...

[frigid stag]

Don’t ask why he had so many

There was money to be made at the time from them

The hardware wasn’t good either

[cursive oasis]

Anyone know any good, cheap 120mm fans

[frigid stag]

Arctic p12

[upper rain]

hmm interesting. i was a filthy turing user at the time, so perhaps that informed my comparatively more positive perception of Navi 1. lack of hands on time does tend to smooth out both the highs and lows

[frigid stag]

Or p12 max

[upper rain]

^

[tranquil pebble]

by the time the drivers got fixed, the hardware was not that great lol

[frigid stag]

“We heard you like Radeon vii so we made it cheaper and different”

[rancid juniper]

Honestly if you got $150 to spend, an RX 5700 XT is a good buy

[upper rain]

but it was expensive as hell haha. i rememver 5700 xt's selling for more than 3070's at times lol

[frigid stag]

Mining

[upper rain]

yep

[rancid juniper]

^

[frigid stag]

That’s why the guy I know had so many

He had like 30 cards

[upper rain]

they were ridiculously efficient for what they were

[tranquil pebble]

Radeon Instinct MI50 be like

[rancid juniper]

The gpu mining craze is way worse than what were dealing with now imo

[acoustic palm]

Hear me out

[worthy meteor]

yea, but in retrospect with current updated drivers, the hardware was competitive

[tranquil pebble]

least by ebay prices

[upper rain]

i'd rather go back... i was rolling in free GPUs then. not so much now

[acoustic palm]

We add on another crypt mining craze to our current shortage

[rancid juniper]

nah bro its over

[acoustic palm]

Not like usd is stable

[rancid juniper]

hm

[worthy meteor]

still like 500000% more stable than crypto smh

[nocturne flicker]

The only people making money on crypto right now are people in government using it as a tool to pump and dump their preferred coins

[tranquil pebble]

usd is now a cryptocurrency

if that ever happened, I will flee to Canada

[rancid juniper]

actually curious on how HBM cards fared on Mining

were they faster?

[frigid stag]

Pretty good

[upper rain]

crypto is at least cyclical mostly. you can get an idea of the general trends, but not so much the micro

[acoustic palm]

Ones unstable up ones unstable down

[rancid juniper]

i see

[worthy meteor]

remember when UST was supposed to be a stablecoin pegged to the dollar

and now it's worth like a cent

[rancid juniper]

L

[pliant berry]

is it still that low?

[worthy meteor]

0.013 rn

[upper rain]

pretty wicked. Radeon VII were selling for more than $1000 for a reason. i think vega was a bit slower than it for mining, but still talking 3070 ish hashrates

[worthy meteor]

used to be even lower I think

[pliant berry]

damn

[acoustic palm]

No way I’m actually positive on my investment again

[rancid juniper]

insane

[upper rain]

lol

[nocturne flicker]

Crypto has no real value. It is a speculative asset that varies in value based on market sentiment and the actions of big asset holders. That is it. USD may be jumping into the toilet right now, but it atleast has something tangible driving that value

[upper rain]

wait until you hear about fiat currency

[frigid stag]

That is in itself real value

[upper rain]

literally everything is fake

[worthy meteor]

vega64 was also the generation that showed us that many PSUs will trip OCP with high spikes lol

[frigid stag]

XD

YE

[worthy meteor]

relative to what happens in crypto, USD is still very stable rn

[nocturne flicker]

USD is Fiat. Its value is determined by trust in the issuing government, its widespread use and the US economy

[pliant berry]

im only interested in crypto as a more open alternative to traditional banking

[rancid juniper]

wasn't vega 64 regarded as the hottest, most power hungry gpus they made?

[worthy meteor]

hey 295x2 existed

[upper rain]

president makes a tweet and 2t gets wiped out of the stock markets... yeah totally real guys. everything is fake and it's funny to me when people pretend otherwise

[worthy meteor]

but it wasn't mainstream

[rancid juniper]

oh

lol

[frigid stag]

That and xtx ye

6900xt with mpt on is no joke either

[nocturne flicker]

The stock market has no bearing on the exchange rates and value of US currency

[rancid juniper]

900w 6900xt mod

[worthy meteor]

usd is down single digit % wise in exchange rates iirc

[frigid stag]

Yes people selling has an effect on it’s value

[upper rain]

my point is that the economy is fake, currency is equally fake just in different ways

[primal kettle]

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-sheev-palpatine-unlimited-power-power-force-gif-5073064

[frigid stag]

The economy is centred around people

That’s nothing new

[rancid juniper]

for +1.5fps boost

this is true oc

[upper rain]

it was centered around gold/silver/copper for a very long time

[nocturne flicker]

Okay. So crypto is more fake than the mainstream, normal fake stuff

[upper rain]

highest power draw i've ever achieved was 820w briefly on a 2080 ti

[frigid stag]

Those used to be just the means of trading

[worthy meteor]

we were very close to being on a silver standard

[upper rain]

agreed. because crypto is fake and also its value is measured in fake stuff

[primal kettle]

Overclockers when they get +10 FPS by adding 500W of power draw and almost melting half of their comtuter

[frigid stag]

That would probably melt your cables

[rancid juniper]

WAT

[lone mango]

Fiat is crypto confirmed

[fresh timber]

goose

[frigid stag]

Pretty sure 500w is the limit on those connectors

[fresh timber]

what do i do with my corsair ram, its only worth $30 so im keeping it

[upper rain]

PCIE 8 pins can take 300w easy, and my cables are nice. not concerned

[rancid juniper]

820w 2080ti sounds mental

[frigid stag]

Idk make a cheap pc with it or something

[fresh timber]

mhhh

CHEAP pc

[worthy meteor]

iirc it's 450w before 8 pin melts

design is 150w

[upper rain]

my 9070 is getting close to 5080 performance and i've only pushed an extra 180 ish watts into it

[fresh timber]

its designed for 150w but people are pulling more 🤔

[primal kettle]

💀

[nocturne flicker]

Crypto is digitized, decentralized fiat whose value is solely determined as a speculative asset

[rancid juniper]

a single 8pin can handle that much?

kinda impressed

[worthy meteor]

before physically melting yea

there's a video of someone doing it

[primal kettle]

Can't you just undervolt an XT and get better performance than a 5080?

[frigid stag]

Ye 300 is fine. 800 it would melt

[fresh timber]

so what im hearing is, people are running their gpus past the spec of the cables which mean its technicly a firehazard so their invalid

[upper rain]

bruh i cannot with this filter

[rancid juniper]

then Nvidia's new power connectors doesn't make sense whatsoever

[frigid stag]

You’d need to overclock it

[upper rain]

i don't even swear a lot

[rancid juniper]

just propreitary slop

smh

[frigid stag]

Undervolting just reduces the power draw/ voltage

[lone mango]

Me after I joined

[acoustic palm]

Better in like forza maybe

[upper rain]

it was 800 but that was across 2x 8 pins and 75w on the PCIE

[fresh timber]

im ngl i dont trust that

[frigid stag]

The limit on 3 pins is like 500w

[worthy meteor]

but just as a reminder, you can draw a LOT more from PCIe

[fresh timber]

spec is 150w, ur pulling 400 between them

[primal kettle]

Yeah I thought people were getting better performance than a 5080 just by undervolting because of thermal limits

[worthy meteor]

remember like 150w through the pcie slot on like 470s iirc

[primal kettle]

somehow

[lone mango]

Yeah

[rancid juniper]

Undervolting in RDNA 3 and above is just giving more thermal headroom so it can boost higher

[frigid stag]

I mean that could be it

[fresh timber]

i thought it was 75w

[worthy meteor]

spec is 75w

[frigid stag]

I didn’t think of that

[lone mango]

Lowering the voltage makes it boost higher

[upper rain]

not to my knowledge, but the undervolting there doesn't reduce power draw, it stays the same, just clocks higher. you're basically just shifting the voltage/frequency curve

[rancid juniper]

(tho it can bring cooler temps but power is still high depending on boost clocks)

[worthy meteor]

yea uv on rdna 4 is different from ampere and co

[primal kettle]

Yeah

[upper rain]

like i said, 300w is light work for them. it was brief anyway, my PSU tripped OPP pretty quickly lol

[rancid juniper]

Wasn't that RX 480s mostly?

[frigid stag]

I just always lock clocks

[worthy meteor]

I draw more power trying to uv my 9070xt lol

[nocturne flicker]

The difference is that actual fiat currency has a centralized authority saying it is capable of being used to pay taxes, do business and that the value is set by a variety of factors controlled by normal, traditional forces

[frigid stag]

It’s consistent that way

[fresh timber]

idk but ima trust the engineers who designede it more than you

[worthy meteor]

it was either 470 or 480 that pulled significantly over 100w

[rancid juniper]

that fiasco was wild, pcie traces burned

[worthy meteor]

it was mainly an issue with multi GPU iirc

back when people still used crossfire

[upper rain]

PCI SIG literally states that the tolerances allow it to live at 300w iirc

[fresh timber]

can u show

[rancid juniper]

Sli and crossfire never took off, quite a shame

but now im glad it didn't

these damn bricks are too power hungry

[upper rain]

https://www.google.com/

[worthy meteor]

the advantages of having a good psu...

[fresh timber]

so u have no source okay

[upper rain]

i'm just not interested in arguing with you because you seem kinda obnoxious is all

[frigid stag]

If it was a truly good psu it would have had enough power 🗿

[fresh timber]

im skeptical on the saftey of this

[rancid juniper]

GPUs in 2025:

[frigid stag]

Ax1600i the goat

[fresh timber]

gooser

[upper rain]

that's fine, don't do it then

[fresh timber]

play goose scam

[frigid stag]

What’s that

[rancid juniper]

people who say underclocking + undervolting = undervolt is not an undervolt

afaik ive seen posts like this for RDNA 3

[frigid stag]

Undervolt can technically be called an “overclock”

[lone mango]

Yeah rdna 4 seems to be a little different but for me turning down the offset actually does do it

[frigid stag]

Actually idk about that

[lone mango]

It seems you have to bring clocks down or limit them

[fresh timber]

i run th is

[rancid juniper]

ehhh you lower temps while retaining high clocks

[lone mango]

Or turn down the power limit a little bit

[rancid juniper]

or same clocks

[upper rain]

clocks are tied to current, so if you drop clocks and voltage you actually reduce power draw

[frigid stag]

Running it at lower voltage than stock though

[lone mango]

Either way, you have to apply some other kind of constraint

[lone mango]

Right, but reducing voltage will drop it more

[rancid juniper]

RDNA 3's stock voltage was bs tho

power hungry af + low clocks

[fresh timber]

give me a 9070xt already

[upper rain]

provided current stays the same, yes. but on RDNA 4 clocks typically just increase, which pushes current, and you end up with roughly = power draw

[rancid juniper]

you're fine with a 7700xt dude

lol

just wait it out longer

[fresh timber]

NO

[rancid juniper]

mmm 2-3 gens later

[fresh timber]

7700xt sucks

[upper rain]

RDNA 2 was worse. arbitrary clock speed limits built into the silicon....

[fresh timber]

it must reach this

[rancid juniper]

it had MPT so it cancels that out

(have a soft spot for owning a 6700xt once)

[upper rain]

MPT gives voltage control, but afaik it does not allow exceeding the clock speed limits

[fresh timber]

rdna2 is nice

[upper rain]

my 6800 for example could max out the sliders if i fed it a little more voltage... but the sliders capped out at 2800mhz

[rancid juniper]

true, its been a while since i last used it

[fresh timber]

rx6600 is a very good 1440p gpu

[lone mango]

My 6700 xt went from 186 to like 140 maximum while losing like 3% perf

[rancid juniper]

stop cappin

[upper rain]

which was so stupid because if i can hit the limit then obviously the limit is not high enough lol

[rancid juniper]

unless you're playing super light games

[lone mango]

If it wasnt power limited at 186 it would do more

[fresh timber]

1440p gpu

[lone mango]

You can do it with a 6600 but you need to put fsr on everything

[upper rain]

what clock speeds does your 2080 ti hit? i have a 1060 i'm in the process of modding... maybe i can beat your 2080 ti again just to rub salt in the wound lmfao

[rancid juniper]

you could run minecraft at 4k and still get over 60fps on a 6600xt

cmon

[fresh timber]

calling a gpu capable of a certin res isnt very helpful when people dont play the new slop

[lone mango]

I did 1440p helldivers with a 6600

[fresh timber]

it doesnt run well unless upscaling

[lone mango]

Yeah

[fresh timber]

my 7700xt does alright with my settings, 90fps

[lone mango]

My igpu gets 60-90 fps with an ultralight shader at 1440p

[fresh timber]

playable

[upper rain]

really? i found my 4060 ti was a little slow for it at 1440p... but then i am a sucker for all the pretties lol. settings were not exactly optimized on my end

[rancid juniper]

it wont break a sweat at high res

[fresh timber]

im happy im not too much of a stickler

pretty game

[frigid stag]

2160mhz. My friend gets 2200 on his 1060 somehow

[lone mango]

I turned the upscaling down further thats why

I think it was at balanced

Resolution went up, upscaling went down one tick

Or two

I think balanced is 2

[upper rain]

hmm maybe i can top that. i have to rework some stuff but i'll get back to you eventually lol. nvidia driver kinda screwed me over a bit

[rancid juniper]

i got an RX 570 8GB sitting here, i wonder if i should chase scores with it

just some XFX model tho

[frigid stag]

I’ve done 2170 but that’s about it. Never tried any higher

[upper rain]

since when did HD2 support upscaling? is it some BS unreal engine TSR thing, or is it DLSS/FSR?

[frigid stag]

It’s already on the verge

[fresh timber]

its always had it

[rancid juniper]

The verge mentioned

[fresh timber]

it looks bad when i upscale to 4k on my rx6600

[rancid juniper]

https://tenor.com/view/verge-pc-build-thermal-paste-gif-19456371

[fresh timber]

yes i run 4k on my rx6600 sometimes

[lone mango]

I dont remember what type of upscaling it uses but it is not unreal engine

[fresh timber]

rx6600 is a 4k gpu

[lone mango]

It is something akin to tsr I think

[rancid juniper]

run roblox at 4k and watch it choke

💀

[upper rain]

interesting. i'll have to check it out. i kinda hate upscaling that isn't DLSS/FSR4, but if it's something different than TSR i'll give it a try

[frigid stag]

Oof

[fresh timber]

minecraft at 4k

[rancid juniper]

thats not roblox

[fresh timber]

roblox is easier to run tbh

[rancid juniper]

really?

[fresh timber]

yeah

[lone mango]

But surprisingly it didnt look so bad at balanced, probably because I was on a 1080p monitor

[rancid juniper]

one second

[fresh timber]

if iv had better luck on older hardware running roblox than with minecraft

now roblox fps sucks but i can get it to run on lower end hardware more easily

[lone mango]

So I was running 1440p on a 1080p monitor, with the native resolution at half of that

Boy what the hell boy

But this was before I got the 6700 xt

[rancid juniper]

ok run this 4k max on your 6600

[lone mango]

I was just curious on what frame rates I would get if I got a 1440p montior before the 6700 xt

[fresh timber]

okay

[lone mango]

But I saw a banger deal and got the 6700 xt at 250 and then got the monitor later

[fresh timber]

h yeah

im stupid

[rancid juniper]

lol

[fresh timber]

LETS DO THIS

[lone mango]

I think the guy selling it did not take advantage of the current market. He sold it at its true, uninflated price

Truly a bro

[fresh timber]

i cant get a fps reading from amd

[rancid juniper]

4k fullscreen pull fps up

[lone mango]

Control shift o

[rancid juniper]

[rancid juniper]

if that doesn't work use Win + G then click performance

[lone mango]

Wait whats going on

[rancid juniper]

it will show u perf metrics

[fresh timber]

i dont have gamebar installed

[rancid juniper]

bruh

[lone mango]

Are you playing a game through rdp or something

[fresh timber]

u can say that

what windows verson do u think i run

[lone mango]

Turn on overlay on the pc that is being remoted into

[fresh timber]

O IM SMART

what do u think i did

ima just use freesync to show fps

[frigid stag]

How much did u pay for ltsc

[fresh timber]

sure

[lone mango]

[frigid stag]

Ah

[lone mango]

Mass Gravel

[fresh timber]

now i get fps from the game

im smart

@rancid juniper 100fps

[rancid juniper]

4k bro

[fresh timber]

ugh

[rancid juniper]

heheh

[fresh timber]

i f ixed it, its just a 1440p stream

the game it self is 4k

wa

why does roblox scale sensativity with the damn resolution

pulling 60fps

[rancid juniper]

lemme see graphics settings?

[fresh timber]

ima go shower, and get rid of the heat in my room

[rancid juniper]

oh nice

probably because any other opinion would be "trolling"

[fresh timber]

yup

its funny

they ban all forms of debloating

but ur more than welcome to flip up ur linux install

a dude got muted cause they helpled me disable auto updates permently

[tranquil pebble]

then I would be welcome there lol

[fresh timber]

i wanted to disable updates cause i use a rig as a server and dont want it turning off when i dont tell it to

[sinful blade]

Bruh

Someone take my 5700g

[fresh timber]

id tradein my 13600kf

[proud jackal]

[fresh timber]

does it work

[tranquil pebble]

Microsoft wants you pay $9001 for a Windows Server license

[fresh timber]

and im good on that

they defend so much sillyness in that server

[rancid juniper]

copy of MH wilds?

count me in

[upper rain]

is that the one you "fixed" the other night?

what's wrong with it? i thought just pins

[misty sparrow]

i wonder how much better 9700x is compared to the 7700

[upper rain]

isn't it like 7% or something silly?

[tranquil pebble]

but fr, Linux is a far superior OS for server use in 99% of cases

[upper rain]

arguably also for daily driving as a user lol

[fresh timber]

woh but when u say linux is better they go buT ThE AvErAgE CoNsUmEr shut up the average bozo uses a browser to do stuff they dont need windows

unironicly if i gave my grandparents linux their computes would have NO issues, why? cause linux typicly doesnt get updates that brick it

[tranquil pebble]

also tfw someone says they will never use Linux... but then games on a Steam Deck

[upper rain]

(and it also doesn't restart your PC to force brickable updates without your consent)

[fresh timber]

also in the mc server they say you should factor in a windows key from microsoft no thank you

i have three pcs that i could a ctivatee "legally" and it would cost me $600

[tranquil pebble]

I would rather activate Linux

[fresh timber]

i did the math

im not spending $600 on computers that cost less than that

my 2nd rig and nas probably cost $600 toghter

[upper rain]

windows is free to activate tho

[fresh timber]

legally its not

[upper rain]

i mean it is

[fresh timber]

no its not

[upper rain]

you literally just run some commands in the terminal

[fresh timber]

thats illegal

techncily

[upper rain]

...

[fresh timber]

u cannot disagree

read their tos

[pliant berry]

technically we are not allowed to discuss such methods here

[fresh timber]

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/servicesagreement

u have to buy a key

[upper rain]

i don't but okay

[fresh timber]

yes u do

you legally do

[tranquil pebble]

my favorite method is to use Linux wherever possible

100% legal

[fresh timber]

if i didnt play anticheat games i would swap to linux so f ast

[misty sparrow]

you know they messed up when a large percentage of enterprise companies use Linux as a server OS instead of Windows Server

[tranquil pebble]

AFAIK even Microsoft uses Linux internally

[fresh timber]

yeah its funny

why dont you use ur own opperating system microsoft

[tranquil pebble]

maybe because it kinda sucks as a server

[sinful blade]

Turns out I didn’t fix it well enough

It’s still dead

[fresh timber]

the SECOND somebody gets fortnite working on linux im swapping

[upper rain]

but is it just pins that are screwed or something else wrong with it too?

[sinful blade]

No idea

[tranquil pebble]

dont bother, it will just get you banned after a patch "fixes" it

[misty sparrow]

-# oh yeah btw its coming back to US iphones

[fresh timber]

I saw

[lone mango]

Realistic outcome

[fresh timber]

JUST ENABLE FORTNITE IN UR ANTICHEAT

[misty sparrow]

what a long time it took for them to get it back

[fresh timber]

EASY ANTICHEAT SUPPORTS LINUX

[lone mango]

No dude linux gamers are cheaters and they share a bunch of code to make cheats man

Bro we are all cheaters dude

[nocturne flicker]

Why you have to caps lock

[fresh timber]

how much in RND will it really cost epic to enable it.. unless they did some stupud stupid custom easy anticheat that makes it difficult

[misty sparrow]

[fresh timber]

i think i need it

why did good psu price sincrease so much 😦

im only upgrading my main pcs psu so i can pass it to my server with a "broken" one

[lone mango]

Does anyone have deep rock galactic

[fresh timber]

i can if its cheap

[lone mango]

I noticed that they have gone up, probably because of higher wattage cards

[fresh timber]

yeah

[misty sparrow]

i do, havent played it in years

[lone mango]

Rdna 4 quite literally popped off

[fresh timber]

ill still. pay the price

[misty sparrow]

id l ove a corsair psu in my rig

[primal kettle]

Easy Cheat

[fresh timber]

how

[primal kettle]

me when companies add an "anti-cheat" to pretend they're doing something about cheaters

I hate Tim Sweeney

He'll never let it run on Linux in any way

[fresh timber]

fr

FR

i only play fortnite when my friend tell me to get on

i dont wanna go, oh yeah i cant run fortnite btw

[primal kettle]

Yeah

Apex used to run on Linux, not anymore

[fresh timber]

i can cope with no roblox, ill just rdp into my windows pc.. fortnite when i need responsetime? hell no

[primal kettle]

Because there are "too many people cheating on Linux"

[misty sparrow]

what was the reason, linux had a lot of cheaters and playerbase was less than Windows?

[primal kettle]

Linux support is like zero effort in the big three game engines

[fresh timber]

fr

[primal kettle]

It wasn't even too many cheaters, it was "too easy to cheat"

[fresh timber]

let proton do it for you

[primal kettle]

You can compile to Linux

[fresh timber]

nobody develops cheating software for linux anywysa

[primal kettle]

You don't need Proton

[fresh timber]

hell people dont even cheat on the pc their playing the game on they have a 2nd pc running it

[worn wave]

It was a combination of there being more cheaters on Linux and it was also easier for cheat developers to develop cheats on Linux

[primal kettle]

Yeah

But EAC is comedically easy to get around

And BattlEye is a joke

[cursive oasis]

Hey I just wanna make sure, should I put the ram in the 1st and 3rd slot?

[fresh timber]

2nd and 4th

sounds like 2nd and 4th to me

sometimes i wanna buy the same ram kit again and run 64gb 4000mt/s

[fresh timber]

I have REV e corsair i think

not in my current rig tho

its a 3200 kit that @idle nexus helped me ge to 4000mt/s "stable" stable until i did some random test

[upper rain]

it's super fun to overclock because it takes voltage like a champ. it's like poor man's B die lol

[primal kettle]

It's using it in something that runs on potatoes

[upper rain]

no, i'm the poor man in this situation

[fresh timber]

i have b die

its just poopy bdie

its in my 2nd rig

[primal kettle]

There's literally no performance difference but everything looks so much better 💀

Very amazing preset AMD

[fresh timber]

my ddr4 beats alot of ddr5 just cause its tuned

[upper rain]

too end DDR3 is wicked fast. better than some Jedec DDR4 in clockspeed and wildly tighter timings. DDR3 era was goated too

could get a 2600k or smth and have it run everything for like a decade

[fresh timber]

yall think ddr6 will be easy to oc

[dense locust]

Let’s first get to the point where ddr5 is easy to oc

[upper rain]

they seem to be getting less and less OC friendly. DDR5 in particular flirted with locking OCers out via restrictive PMICs

[upper rain]

real lmfao

[proud jackal]

I need serotonin

[upper rain]

boot times are the biggest bottleneck imo. the platform is brutal, but it would be less so if it didn't take a whole minute to swap settings

hey idols aren't allowed to carry weapons

[fresh timber]

i dont need spaceheating when my room is atleast 10-15 degrees hottre than the rest of the house

im sweating

[dense locust]

Ac unit time

[fresh timber]

nah

cost too much

ima buy more fans

[dense locust]

💀

[upper rain]

PMIC is a DDR5 thing, platform agnostic. does come off very Intel though

[fresh timber]

When should I buy ddr5

[worthy meteor]

That's just Corsair smh

[upper rain]

it's just that fortunately the limits in place are high enough in most cases that it's irrelevant

[fresh timber]

Zen 6?

[misty sparrow]

that delivery driver's probably getting the first class treatment (AC in delivery vehicle)

[upper rain]

i do wonder if it will be more of an issue with future generatiins

[upper rain]

are they bad about locking their dram down?

[worthy meteor]

Yes

[rancid juniper]

Lol

[upper rain]

cringe. one more reason to hate corsair memory i guess

[worthy meteor]

Corsair locks pmic voltages and basically no one else does

[dense locust]

I year the memory controller on am5 is pretty bad

[upper rain]

it's not terrible, but Arrow Lake sorta smokes it

[rancid juniper]

One company to avoid (except their psus)

[upper rain]

not that arrow lake is even really relevant at all lmfao

[upper rain]

(which they don't even make)

[dense locust]

If theoretically intel added 3D vcache would the performance go to intel?

Or is that not the only bottleneck

[upper rain]

more cache is certainly always useful, but i think they sort of put themselves in a corner by axing hyperthreading, and then killing the internal development project for their hyperthreading successor

so idk what the plan is any more at this point

[dense locust]

Who knows maybe they’ll release next gen and smoke amd and we would never expect it

[frigid stag]

The cases are nice

[upper rain]

they really need to majorly overhaul their core architecture imo, but they killed that project too lmfao

[rancid juniper]

Mmm

[upper rain]

their cores are HUGE and it makes it hard to compete. AMD's whole strategy is selling tiny efficient cores that take up next to 0 die area so that they can win on margin without losing much performance

[frigid stag]

Hyperthreading off is better but it should be an option imo

[upper rain]

and at a certain point if your starting point is so much better, your gains snowball

[upper rain]

HT off has very limited benefits on architectures that support it, overall having the extra multithreaded performance matters more to me. if the architecture was such that the second thread wasn't needed and the core was simply running FULL tilt all the time, then i would agree. but that was what HT-next was meant to be, not what we have. and they killed HT-next

[frigid stag]

Hyperthreading is a band aid fix for not having enough cores

[dense locust]

Anyways even if ddr6 releases it won’t release on amd until am6

[frigid stag]

For gaming turning it off increases performance

[dense locust]

Just add more cache

Problem solved

[misty sparrow]

is ddr6 even necessary

[frigid stag]

L4 cache and send amd to the caveman ages

[upper rain]

yeah as long as you have enough cores which is what you're getting at. but the silicon of doubling cores is way more than letting you stretch your underutilized cores some more, which is what HT is basically

[upper rain]

isn't adamantine also cancelled lol

[frigid stag]

I don’t know but they have done it before

Like 9 years ago

[upper rain]

the L4 on broadwell was just on package dram, which we have with Lunar Lake i believe?

[dense locust]

No but number go up

[upper rain]

adamantine was a proper l4 solution

[frigid stag]

Which one is lunar lake

[upper rain]

and afaik it's dead

[fresh timber]

Intel would win

[upper rain]

mobile only

[frigid stag]

Oh

[upper rain]

it's in some laptops

very efficient

[dense locust]

Intel should work on a 3D vcache competitor

[fresh timber]

Next gen Intel will be very good I suspect

[fresh timber]

If they did I think they would win in multicore

While being a good gamer

I don’t think they will be the best, but be very compelling

[frigid stag]

I want the 149KF but the i7s are so cheap it’s hard to go for the i9

[fresh timber]

Yeah

[upper rain]

chiplets are cool, but intel seems not to understand why you do chiplets... they cost performance, they make up for it with parallization and better cost optimized architectures so you can throw more stuff on the package. intel seems to just want to use 30 different bleeding edge nodes to perform worse than raptor lake...

[nocturne flicker]

Why, they stopped doing it because it was mostly a waste of space and money

[fresh timber]

If Intel did chiplets imagine how many P cores you could get

[frigid stag]

They’re copying the worst parts of amd, arrow lake is faster for productivity but for gaming it’s not it

[fresh timber]

Imagine 12p 16E

[upper rain]

they started doing it again with Lunar Lake and it seems to be going reasonably well

[frigid stag]

They are with arrow lake

It’s a weird hybrid architecture

[dense locust]

Isnt cache slower as the number gets higher

[upper rain]

even in productivity it's not by a large margin, and is VASTLY more expensive to produce on a much better node

[dense locust]

I mean it’s still probably magnitudes faster than ram but still

[frigid stag]

Well at least they’re doing 12 p cores this year

That’s huge

[upper rain]

that's good

[frigid stag]

And it works on your 3 generations old motherboard

[fresh timber]

amd is doing 12P ccds, is intel?

[frigid stag]

Yeah 12 p cores lga1700

[fresh timber]

im ngl i might buy a 12p core amd chip

[fresh timber]

lga1700??

[frigid stag]

No e cores though

Yea

[fresh timber]

i want

I WANT

[upper rain]

yeah. intel's l4 implementations have basically just been ultra low latency on-package dram tho. Adamantine was meant to be an active interposer/cache layer that could scale up to gigabytes of usable l4 cache, but intel cancelled it soooooooo. idk what's up anymore because to my knowledge that was supposed to be their Vcache alternative

[rancid juniper]

Kinda wish Intel experimented for once and kept LGA 1700 alive a bit longer

[fresh timber]

they could have kept it

[rancid juniper]

LGA 1851 is stupidly short lived

[royal crow]

Yeah same

[fresh timber]

lga1700 could have had the new chips easilly i bet

[frigid stag]

[rancid juniper]

Facts

[frigid stag]

It’s getting another generation

[dense locust]

Intel try not to move to a new socket every 1 generation challenge

[upper rain]

afaik this is not coming to consumer. also it's raptorlake and not fixed raptorlake either

[royal crow]

And like why did they abandon the thing they had

[lone mango]

Arrow lake now is actually not that bad at all

[fresh timber]

if intel just came up with a way to give cpus more cache to compete with AMD they could win, Intel doesnt have the ccd latency issue AMD has

[lone mango]

Especially after all the cope updates

[upper rain]

strong disagree. architecturally and performance wise it's a massive L imo

[lone mango]

Most recent one was them increasing their memory controller clocks

[royal crow]

They had the fastest cpus and now, well, they have ai

[fresh timber]

false https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrmTYza6m1g

[frigid stag]

It’s coming to consumers apparently

[dense locust]

intel still has majority marketshare

[lone mango]

Derbauer shows how it is now

[rancid juniper]

I like how instead of tackling the high power problem 13/14th gen had. All they did was kill off hyper threading as a whole and saying "there, that fixed it!"

[fresh timber]

every pc i see in the wild is intel

[lone mango]

It is not slow anymore

[rancid juniper]

Intel is mad goofy

[frigid stag]

There’s been a ton of bios updates by now

[upper rain]

wrong reply orrrr?

[frigid stag]

It’s probably closer to 14 gen now

[fresh timber]

intentional

core ultra is good for editing

[rancid juniper]

Game dev ah wannabe

[upper rain]

i wouldn'r but raptor lake tbh

[upper rain]

yeah because opinions are true/false statements

[frigid stag]

It’s Bartlett lake

[dense locust]

did intel make ultra using their own fabs or is it just TSMC

[fresh timber]

saying a cpu is fast or slow is not an opinion when facts can prove its not slow

[royal crow]

I think they used their own?

[upper rain]

ah well at least they're ridiculously expensive CPU with terrible margins moderately beats older CPUs in one particular workload

[lone mango]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CzuusJmklU

[dense locust]

i know their gpus use TSMC

[upper rain]

read my message again but with your glasses on this time dude

[fresh timber]

once again sometimes people just need that workload to be good

[dense locust]

im happy for the 7 people who bought it

[rancid juniper]

No wonder why it's soooo good (driver overhead aside)

[lone mango]

[fresh timber]

performance is good

[lone mango]

Brutal

[upper rain]

sure, and for those people it's fine. but that's not the majority of the market

[nocturne flicker]

Except for the part where they've internally realized it hurt margins too much and said they won't be doing it again

[upper rain]

it's not

[fresh timber]

okay

[rancid juniper]

Oh yeah, layoffs happened too

✅

[fresh timber]

your fired

[rancid juniper]

Thanks boss

[dense locust]

intel should really move it internally tbh

[upper rain]

did they say this about Lunar Lake in particular? or are you referring to their old Broadwell line?

[rancid juniper]

Really? I'm hearing mixed stuff about 18A

[fresh timber]

does arrow lake have budget options yet

[dense locust]

its a bad thing to rely on just 1 fab

[rancid juniper]

That is true...

[dense locust]

intel needs 18a just as we need it

[nocturne flicker]

They said back in November it was a one off with Lunar Lake and going forward they'd be going back to traditional memory layout

[rancid juniper]

I hope they finally make a winning move

Instead of something dumb af

[dense locust]

are they still having trouble with yields?

[upper rain]

makes sense. i wish they'd do like a proper L4 with adamantine.... may it rest in peace

[proud jackal]

I have mine sitting under my bed and haven't updated it since release day

[rancid juniper]

Brb

[dense locust]

intel cpus can at least do productivity well

especially the cheaper ones

[upper rain]

yikes. is this recent? i thought they were starting to make it work...

[dense locust]

3 months ago im sure they are at least at 31%!

[upper rain]

suboptimal, truly. 18a seemed good performance wise. the last thing Intel needs is for Foundry to start failing alongside their floundering core architecture teams

[lone mango]

Its gone up since then but idk how much it has gone up

[lone mango]

[dense locust]

hopefully it has hit at least 50% or at least close to it

How
Much are they

[frigid stag]

More than they’re worth

And they’re blower cards

[icy ore]

[rancid juniper]

pretty recent to me

[rancid juniper]

definitely not 69%

[dense locust]

what % is high enough for production

[fresh timber]

why the bolower style

what makes them blowers

[dense locust]

fans

on the gpu

[frigid stag]

Idk but most of them are

[chrome surge]

Fire

[worthy meteor]

Intel tries to stretch the definition of "production" to say 60% is production lol

[fresh timber]

unironicly id downgrade to a 12900k

same performance as a 13600kf in gaming

[rancid juniper]

why?

[fresh timber]

cause it has a K instead of a KF

[rancid juniper]

🗿

[fresh timber]

and i bet they go for cheap

cheap ish i just checked

ok they suck on ebay wtf

too close to faster cpus

new 13700k is same price as used 12900k logic 100

new 12900k cost too much to loose to a 13700k lmfaoo

[frigid stag]

8 cores

[fresh timber]

im ngl i forget i have 6 p cores

[frigid stag]

Can run hyperthreading off that way

And not have a hit to fps

[fresh timber]

the Ecores dont make me feel like i have 6 P cores

[rancid juniper]

interesting

[rancid juniper]

how much u wanna spend?

[fresh timber]

$0 and $0 cent currently

[rancid juniper]

good

[fresh timber]

maybe after 9070xt ill consider, but not now

[frigid stag]

~~ what about KS ~~

[fresh timber]

ok if i had the chance id buy a 14900ks

and just thug it out with ddr4

[frigid stag]

Nice

[rancid juniper]

"I can fix it"

[fresh timber]

14900k in it self is worth upgrading to ddr5

[fresh timber]

if i can get a post id just prey its unstable and run lower clock speed on it

*wait can u run lower clock speed on a non K cpu..

[rancid juniper]

i think you can

[fresh timber]

good

hey compooper guess what im doing

[rancid juniper]

K allows for overclock not underclock

wat

[fresh timber]

im getting a m.2 E+a key to m.2 M key adapter

wanna know why

[rancid juniper]

uh why?

[fresh timber]

so i can plug a nvme into this wifi card i have

[rancid juniper]

tf

[fresh timber]

i have a wifi card rn, i can just remove the wifi thigy it self and use the m.2 slot

i hope its pcie 3.0..

ima plug it in real quick and see

[rancid juniper]

pcie 2.0

😏

[fresh timber]

how fast is 1x 2.0 even 😢

[rancid juniper]

legit around SATA III speed

[crimson scroll]

Yall fw fenvi wifi bluetooth adapters?

I got one brand new for like 8$

Works nice

But the antennas tho bro

Suck so bad

They are soo loose

They just flop around

[fresh timber]

ddik sata III speeds

@rancid juniper how do extentiosn and such determin pcie gen.. if its just direct traces to the device couldnt it just handel any gen

i dont see no chip or anything that could determin it

[rancid juniper]

you mean on your motherboard or the card itself?

because both are easily identifiable if you look it up

but if not, just use hwinfo

[fresh timber]

both, how does devices negotiate when their on a riser. what make a 5.0 riser diffrent from a 4.0 one

[rancid juniper]

never used risers so i dunno if it affects speed

[velvet summit]

What chipset

[crimson scroll]

Ac1200

Its what i use

I upgraded and downgraded from tplink ac1200 pcie wifi card (wifi 8) to fenvi ac1200 bluetooth wifi pcie (wifi4 and Bluetooth 3 i think or something lmfao)

[velvet summit]

Intel then I think

[crimson scroll]

Yep

I use intel

[fresh timber]

im saving my wifi 6 card for any device thats like wifi 5 i might get

i dont think ill ever use it

[velvet summit]

Honestly
Pretty much all wifi NICs are the same within the same chipset

[fresh timber]

until mediatek

[crimson scroll]

Mediatek good?

[fresh timber]

no

[crimson scroll]

Oh

I think something in my pc is mediatek

Ive seen it in settings or device manager

[idle nexus]

I couldn't locate one of the HDD cage/mount things even tho I probably have like 6 of them somewhere. They're usually the first thing out of a new case... anyway I had to improvise. Related, HDDs use 6-32 screws lol

should hold it well enough I think

there are 4 screws holding it. Two aren't visible from this angle lol

[lone mango]

I forgot to say but the wifi on this new board is cracked

Remember when I said I get like 2/3 to 3/4 of what I was supposed to get on my laptop

Well I get the full speed now and its real good

Get the 9600x on newegg

It comes with monster hunter wilds and a 500 gb ssd

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3p3PGJ

Also that ram you had was not very good and costs the same as this cl28

Yes, vengeance is overpriced

Oh I thought I was helping you save with the board but this one is the same price as the msi board

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bjJKdb

I hope that card comes down in price

Even if you dont get it on newegg, the 9600x on amazon still comes with wilds but no ssd

[fresh timber]

I’d print two the.

[lone mango]

+4% perf over stock at 1.1v with +200mhz oc

Thats crazy

5% single core

I draw a little less power than stock while being a little faster, like 60w vs like a little over that

I wonder how little voltage it will pull when I remove the overclock

I think I saw it at 1 volt or something

The drive I record videos onto and game on has 10.5 tbw, the 2tb drive I cloned onto has 7.5 tbw, the third drive I render to, which used to be my dad's os drive for an old laptop, has 5 tbw

I think my drives will last a while

[lone mango]

What now

Wow 5.62ghz single core thats crazy

1ghz higher than 5600

5.15 all core

[lone mango]

Oh yah 5.63 in game

[dense locust]

[proud jackal]

MSI gaming trio or msi vanguard 🤔

[dense locust]

Are you actually getting a 5090

[dense locust]

What’s the price difference

[lone mango]

Please wait bro 🙏 💔

A 5080 tho

[proud jackal]

I had a 4090 trio and it was solid , vanguard is new and gamery

[dense locust]

If you’re gunna spend 99% of the way there just go to the 100% and get the vanguard
