@acoustic palm got any Newegg 9070xt deals?

Wake up quok

[paper verge]

BRO FINALY BOUGHT A GPU

WOWAHWAHAWO

[fresh timber]

techncily its not bought yet

[paper verge]

bruh

[fresh timber]

i go pickup tommrow and pay

i just reserved one for tommrow

👅

[paper verge]

yhou can finally cancel all those notifs

[fresh timber]

NOPE

IMA STILL KEEP EM

just incase

who knows good deal tommrow might show up

DGPUS ARE DEAD

at the right price a mini pc with these specs wouldnt be .. bad for people who want small pc

[leaden pewter]

issue is most sit above 1k and you can build a pc at that price for its performance and over time its upgrade path is limited unlike a desktop but offers great potential

[fresh timber]

can u match its power efficency and footprint tho

thts it selling point

[leaden pewter]

i do agree but laptops pretty much get there and come with a screen

[fresh timber]

im pretty sure laptops with that chip cost $2000+

[lone mango]

I am unsure if updating my asrock board is a good idea

Apparently the newest revision fixes some voltages but I am doubtful

[mental yoke]

ill date ur asrock board

its a motherboard right?

[lone mango]

Yeah

[mental yoke]

giggity

[lone mango]

I capped my soc voltage and undervolted cores

I am hoping that is enough

I have a b650 board and a 9600x

[fresh timber]

give me a 9070xt

i need good prices now

[lone mango]

Probability of issues is low but still possible

[fresh timber]

os worst, apple or nvidia, i feel like nvidia is alot more predatory

and everyone kinda relys on nvidia more than apple

apple makes silly phones and what not

nvidia.. everything

[lone mango]

When you buy a high end apple computer, at least it will last a long time without any power issues

[fresh timber]

and apple is genuinly good at making products

its suprising but.. apple erally isnt oevrpriced

every company has a overpriced item here or their but nvidia.. every product is overpriced

[worn wave]

Their base models aren't too bad but if you want to get more ram or storage it's insanely expensive

Thankfully the MacBooks start at 16gb now

[fresh timber]

yeah

the higher end models have a use too

u can spend $2000 on a macbook and it sounds expensive but it really is a good product when u buy it for the right reason

i want this if i get non xt

looks fire

[fresh timber]

Oh

[velvet summit]

Me when my headphone dongle costs more than my headphones

[acoustic palm]

No

[slate fractal]

i got my headphones 29 dollars off (from 30) because tiktok hates when people pay full price

and they're good too for that price, clear sound and decent bass

tfw you find out that the start menu in windows 11 is literally a react native application that causes a spike in cpu usage every time you press the start button

X · May 25, 2025, 8:07 PM

Absolute Microsoft moment

[elfin mural]

what

it's a react native app??

[pseudo raven]

most cursed thing ive read in a while lol

[tranquil pebble]

more likely Edge Webview but yes... it is browser based

[elfin mural]

yucky

i would move to linux by now but

one word

green

[tranquil pebble]

Microsoft removed the real start menu again

[elfin mural]

no wonder you can easily restore win 10's start menu

because ms build an edge webview app

[tranquil pebble]

my laptop has Intel UHD and 4060M

[elfin mural]

do you run linux on it?

cuz im lowkey considering it

getting tired of microsoft

[tranquil pebble]

no and I am not going to.

[elfin mural]

oh wait- i use clipchamp

nah nvm on linux

i need a brain-shut-off easy video editing tool for my content creation

lmao

[tranquil pebble]

I use my laptop as a means of playing H3VR, and other games on the go

[elfin mural]

but i can surely use wine

to run that

[tranquil pebble]

Oculus Link works well with the laptop but it can not run on Linux

however I do stuff on my desktop that straight up requires Linux and does not work on Windows

(AMD ROCm mostly)

[pliant berry]

If you use steam im pretty sure their new recording features work on linux

[elfin mural]

im not worried about recording

i can just use obs

but im worried about not being able to use climpchamp-

wait a minute..

it has a browser based version too

since the app is literally just edge webview

[pliant berry]

Oh that’s a free editor

[elfin mural]

ya

free online editor

all the files in my projects can't be stored locally on the web version

that's ouch

[pliant berry]

https://www.reddit.com/r/davinciresolve/comments/wasqdl/davinci_resolve_for_linux_is_it_usable/

Apparently resolve can be used to some extent on Linux

good morning

guess who joined a weight loss bet

me

[rigid sinew]

yes you also joined , you have to send me $50 now and a pic of your weigh in

[slate fractal]

dude i dont have $50

[elfin mural]

lmao

[rigid sinew]

oh so then youre a liar and you didnt join

Gaam-ers

[sinful blade]

Are graphics drivers stored on the storage?

[worn wave]

Nah they sorta just exist on a different plane of reality

[sinful blade]

I cleared drivers on wife’s pc with my nvme

Do I need to do it on mine?

I feel like an idiot

[slate fractal]

yeah you can actually delete drivers on your file explorer and itll still be updated

[sinful blade]

So if i put in this 1660 S I should be fine?

[worn wave]

They're not stored on the GPU if that's what you mean

[slate fractal]

theres something special you have to do to remove the driver from the gpu itself

[sinful blade]

Had a 5700xt

I’m just asking if I should be able to put this 1660S in

With minimal issues

[slate fractal]

one way to find out

[sinful blade]

Guess so

[worn wave]

Just run ddu first

Intel 285k first time powered on since November

[dusk knot]

its more beautiful than i imagined

[dusk knot]

nice. now benchmarks!!!

[proud jackal]

Did

Still not as good as 9800x3d

[mental yoke]

its gooder at being intel and not amd at least

i want a 9800x3d

[lone mango]

Theo computer Theo computer

[dusk knot]

ofc. intel bad

[mental yoke]

the bios blunder soured my view of intel

but in the grand scheme they handled it

i guess?

[lone mango]

Yeah intel did it to themselves fr

[nocturne flicker]

Release date'll be in 2038 and the launch will still be a disaster

[upper rain]

bro why are they remaking the 2nd game when they're already on the 2077th one

[upper rain]

but the melting RaptorLake's didn't?

truly horrible days to be an Intel fanboy (me)

[fresh timber]

GTA 6 better

2177 this time

[proud jackal]

Time to sell the 285k

[dusk knot]

good

it was trash anyways

[proud jackal]

Along with the 4090 hopefully

[random osprey]

reminder to repaste your gpu or cpu if you havent already as well as clean your pc 🗿

also to add on, another reminder, make sure to set your ram to the correct speed in bios. i totally didnt did not do this just now after having this pc for about a year

i would never make that mistake, just reminder

[dusk knot]

L

[random osprey]

L for what? i didnt make that mistake jp

[fresh timber]

Mines isn’t set correctly

[random osprey]

i would never

[fresh timber]

L

[dusk knot]

L..ok

Do better, wolf

[random osprey]

idk what youre talking about

[dusk knot]

Ultron will rule over all

[dusk knot]

An 8/10

Can't wait for a good handful of heros/villains

Doctor Doom is a must, apocalypse, Thanos, daredevil, Black cat, and few of the X-Men like cyclops, and Colossus

[random osprey]

modok as a support or dps

[dusk knot]

Oh right. That would work

We also need the inhumans

And a bunch of other teams

The runaways....would be great

[random osprey]

green goblin would be good to have for more flying to counter other flying characters

[dusk knot]

Oh and the Nova corps and some skrulls

[random osprey]

thatd also be pain, just explosive pumpkins raining down on your team

[dusk knot]

Would be as annoying as ironman

[random osprey]

marvel rivals is 5v5 right?

[dusk knot]

Yes

[random osprey]

damn

wouldve been sick if eventually they added in all the characters to make the sinister six and you got an entire team buff

[upper rain]

y are you selling?

[fresh timber]

What’s worst, mutant or inhuman

[dusk knot]

Worst in what?

[fresh timber]

Worst in powwrs

Also I’m a sentinel so I’m racist to mutants

[dusk knot]

Hmmm

Overall.... mutants

[fresh timber]

I’m ngl mutants and inhumans are the same thing with a different name

[dusk knot]

The inhumans are more proud of themselves and usually when they go through the mist, they wouldn't suffer some really ugly mutations most of the time.

Being a mutant sucks

[fresh timber]

Mutants suffer in the mist?

[dusk knot]

I don't think it would work on them .....

Let me look it up lol

[fresh timber]

I wonder, is their an inhuman who’s also a mutant

[dusk knot]

Yeah they would get new powers

Or altered

[fresh timber]

Ooo

[fresh timber]

It’s crazy how spiderman isn’t just some strong dude

Bros the multiverse

[dusk knot]

Huh?

[fresh timber]

Spiderman can rival weaker versions of the hulk in stenght

And he’s the multiverse cause web of life

The Mcu should explore the fact that spiderman is multiverse not that he’s done multiverse sruff

[dusk knot]

Oh right

The game

[fresh timber]

And in comics

Web of life

[dusk knot]

Not to familiar with the web of life, it's recent I believe

[fresh timber]

Oh

TLDR, all spider people are connected to the multiverse

[random osprey]

well

there was a movie as well that showed all of them in the multiverse

[fresh timber]

I said mcu not what ever miles morales movies are

[random osprey]

its literally part of the mcu

did they not show parts of the mcu? couldve sworn they showed parts of it

[dusk knot]

Ik. Just too exhausted to go into detail. But outside the movies, I'm not too familiar with it

It's hardly touched

[fresh timber]

Same multiverse

They never mixed

The most we got in mcu is that captain marvel fella going to a xman universe and we had the fantastic 4 go to the main mcu universe

Meaning in the fantastic 4 movie, they failed to beat galactic

[dusk knot]

That's the main theory....

[fresh timber]

Leaking the movie before it’s out

[dusk knot]

If the movie is as much as the thunderbolts.....all hope it lost

[fresh timber]

Thunderbolts is a 2/10

Ass

Contributes nothing to the story but saying, hey we have sentry now

[dusk knot]

6.5

It wasn't bad

[dusk knot]

True

It was a self actualization trip

[fresh timber]

They under estimated him too

How tf they make Ironman and Thor look stronger

Hell captain marvel could win that

[sinful blade]

@fresh timber

[fresh timber]

What this

[misty sparrow]

So here’s the thing

If you paid attention in the newest Spiderverse film there’s a line where somebody mentions the events of No Way Home and how it messed up the multiverse

so although the universe in the MCU films is separate from miles morales movies they’re all still canon

[dusk knot]

Indeed

[sinful blade]

The Behemoth

The pc I’ve been building/painting for a month

[fresh timber]

Guess who changed plans and told me microcetner Tommrow

[fresh timber]

Ooo

I need to find a cheap psu smh

[sinful blade]

The pc that I went through 3 CPUs for

[fresh timber]

Yo

I might get the 9070 Tommrow smh

[sinful blade]

Meanwhile, I’m back to using a 1660S

[fresh timber]

lol

[fresh timber]

If money grew on trees for me I’d buy you a used 3060 ❤️

[sinful blade]

If only

[upper rain]

planning on upgrading, or are you inentionally downsizing?

[upper rain]

it does grow on trees you just have to work at the federal reserve

[sinful blade]

How would this compare to the double 7600 I showed yesterday?

[fresh timber]

lol

[sinful blade]

Wife comes first, she’s getting a new pc to replace hers
(3600, my 5700xt)

She WAS using the 1660

[upper rain]

ahhh gotcha. good man

[fresh timber]

9800x3d+5090 for wife

[upper rain]

real lol

[sinful blade]

I wish

[fresh timber]

No gpu today

[upper rain]

wife would probs be pissed lol

[fresh timber]

Tommrow I get it

I woke up too late

[upper rain]

"what do you mean you spent $5k on a PC"

lmao

[sinful blade]

I think imma get this for her

[fresh timber]

YOU SHSY

[upper rain]

same vibe as those Christmas advertisements where one person buys a car for their SO. that's how you get flogged lmfao

[frigid stag]

I think I’ve spent close to that on older hardware over the years 😭

I buy stuff I don’t need that much

[upper rain]

not a bad deal tbf

[sinful blade]

Oh wait

It’s 3 hours away

[upper rain]

oh lol

[frigid stag]

Like 64gb ram for some reason

[upper rain]

what's ur budget mr roomba man

[fresh timber]

im bored

[upper rain]

my little sister's PC has 64GB of ram because when she wanted to get into gaming i had a boatload of DDR3 for no reason lol

[sinful blade]

$600 for her pc upgrade

[frigid stag]

Lol

[frigid stag]

Same for me now that I have it sitting in a box

[upper rain]

she plays minecraft on it mayhaps a smidge overkill

[fresh timber]

W big bro

[frigid stag]

can run infinite chunks

[upper rain]

i think her CPU would explode. it's not bad for what she plays, but uh- old Xeons are still just old Xeons haha

[sinful blade]

Minecraft is probably the best optimized game of all time

[upper rain]

it's extremely single threaded

aside from that the code is clean, but i struggle with calling something that requires extensive external mods to kiiiiiinda sorta use more than one thread "optimized"

to me optimization is getting the most out of the hardware available

[sinful blade]

I was saying it’s optimized in a way that it can run on a kindle

That’s how easy running it is with some applications

[fresh timber]

should i be pacient and wait for a 9070xt to go for $600

[upper rain]

ohhh gotcha, yeah bedrock is something of a marvel

in some ways it's hillariously bad

but also shockingly good in others

the sheer scalability of that codebase is mindboggling

[fresh timber]

i need stock

[sinful blade]

It’s very easy to run, and the ability to adapt to the “marketplace” stuff is phenomenal.

[frigid stag]

They’re nice they have quad channel

[dusk knot]

Did you really buy that $800 9700xt?

[fresh timber]

no i woke up too late and missed my ride

[upper rain]

you can go from decade old smartphones to 5090's and get scaling across all devices- and heck with integrated RT on BE, the scaling isn't useless either. you can run DX12 features if the hardware allows it

[upper rain]

mhm for sure

that's a big help for her since Fortnite is pretty memory bottlenecked

she keeps a pretty consistent 60FPS with her rx 570

[fresh timber]

i need to find a 9070xt for like $700 and a 650-750w psu foro $100 or less

[sinful blade]

I have 2 clips from when I played fortnite back in s2

[upper rain]

did the MC one not pan out?

[sinful blade]

Yes, just s2

[fresh timber]

my ride dad LEFT WIOTH OUT ME FOR OTHER STUFF

[upper rain]

lol

can you try again tomorrow?

[fresh timber]

oh thats when im going

[upper rain]

i'm looking for radioactive watch dials tomorrow

[fresh timber]

ill be left with $100 in my bank after

maybe less with tax idk

[sinful blade]

Mercari might have some

[fresh timber]

the steel legend needs to come back in stock

[upper rain]

yeah but if i wanted to buy something shipped i can just import uranium/thorium ore

i'm in it for the hunt

uranium ceramicware would also be neat, but afaik not super radioactive so kinda a pain to hunt

[dusk knot]

O

[upper rain]

i know just what you should spend it on

[fresh timber]

whats the difrence

i cant tell

[frigid stag]

One has higher boost clocks

[upper rain]

one is probs a 3rd party seller

[frigid stag]

Left one is oc

The other one is not oc

[tiny kestrel]

😂 😂 😂

[fresh timber]

wow let me just manaully boost the non oc real quick

[frigid stag]

Yeah lol

[fresh timber]

oh wow now they are the same!!!!

[upper rain]

oh i didn't catch that

[tiny kestrel]

wife: HOW DARE YOU SPEND 10K ON A PC!@!!!@!$!@%@#%@#!~!!~!#$%#@%~

[upper rain]

@fresh timber spend your last $100 on this
https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808555270903.html?

[fresh timber]

lol,. no

[upper rain]

more for me

[tiny kestrel]

@frigid stag Sup goose

[fresh timber]

let see of bestbuy lets u reserve

[frigid stag]

Hello

[fresh timber]

nvm

[tiny kestrel]

GUESS WHO

[frigid stag]

Idk

[upper rain]

you can buy mine off me if you want

[fresh timber]

oh i can just buy a cheap one at microcenter tommrow

[tiny kestrel]

Microcenter the goat

[fresh timber]

theirs 7900xt foro $700 im considering

[upper rain]

based

[upper rain]

ehhh

9070 xt makes more sense imo

[fresh timber]

theirs a 9070 at $750 theirs a cheaper poo model

[dusk knot]

The only card that makes sense

[fresh timber]

[tiny kestrel]

I really want OLED

I'm looking to buy QD-OLED monitor

[dusk knot]

Save up for one

[dusk knot]

Good choice

[fresh timber]

flip it ill just buy a 9070xt and worry about it later

ill get the money back ish when i sell my old crap and get the rest of my money anyways

[dusk knot]

I thought you already bought a 9070xt

[fresh timber]

NO

i missed my ride

i said that like 50 times

[dusk knot]

:/

[fresh timber]

😭

[dusk knot]

Wasn't paying attention

[fresh timber]

he said tommrow smh

[tiny kestrel]

The one that is like 500HZ I think from ASUS

Or might wait for a Samsung monitor

[fresh timber]

my reservation is ready tho

unironcily the cheapest one they have

chat how good are power spec psus

NVM I DONT NEED PSU

WHOOOOo

its a 2x pcie one

[upper rain]

$800 😭

[fresh timber]

unless some magially good value gpu shows up im spending $800

[nocturne flicker]

Magially

[proud jackal]

BECAUSE I NEED MONEY'S

[fresh timber]

SOMEBODY LIST A 9070xt for $700 RIGHT NOW

[dusk knot]

I can draw one and post it on eBay

What do you think?

[fresh timber]

works for me

[dusk knot]

😏

[fresh timber]

When all else fails

😭😭

[upper rain]

invest in fartcoin

[upper rain]

even at MSRP that sucks

i'd genuinely rather pay $650 for a 9070 than $550 for a 5070

[fresh timber]

i have a quetion, why is 7900xt price bad

doesnt it beat 9070

yeah a 7900xt is faster

why wouldnt you want 7900xt over 9070

[upper rain]

16GB is enough for 1440p for a while going forward, and FSR 4 is heaps better than 3. also more efficient and overclocks better

it's just a better package all around. RT is also notably better

[fresh timber]

so its better for those people who do that stuff

[upper rain]

oh wait i read that the other way aroubd lol

i thought you were asking why you'd go 9070 over 7900 xt 😭

[fresh timber]

i wish techpowerup shown the 9070 vs 9070xt in the chart smh

if you do brain math like 15% diffrence

[upper rain]

it's about a 15% difference

[upper rain]

yea

[fresh timber]

whast the price difrfence using brain math at this price vs cheapest 9070xt i can find now

$100 more for 15%

[icy ore]

[lone mango]

[fresh timber]

im refreshing microcenters page in hope foor the cheaper 9070xt

[dusk knot]

Better than none

[fresh timber]

JHUST PUT THE WHITE ONE BACK ON

[lone mango]

Because amd cut supply to stop the price from going down more

They cut supply and hoped that people would buy them before the next generation came out

[fresh timber]

so it ends up costing the same as the better gen

the vram seems appealing

[lone mango]

I think their goal was to have it be cheaper but not go down to the point where they would lose money from people buying it at such a lower price

[lone mango]

You probably wont use rt very much but you probably don’t want rtx 3rd gen rt performance

[fresh timber]

i wont use the raytracing kek

9070xt is reserved just in case i get triger happy and say F it im doing it

[lone mango]

9070 has 4 gigs less but its a more efficient architecture. 9070 is actually really efficient compared to the xt

[fresh timber]

new egg bring back cheap ones

and guess what id do, id overclock the 9070

[upper rain]

the GRE was mostly a pressure relief valve for this scenario. when the XT started to dip they minimized costs to the absolute bottom that made sense for n31 die and sold it as the GRE on a N32 package with cheap PCBs and coolers and memory

[lone mango]

9070 ises like 2/3rds of the power but has like ~87% of the performance

[upper rain]

i do kinda wonder if they'd have been better off just letting the XT drop by an extra $50 or whatever

[fresh timber]

im trying to think o fan excuse for the vram

i dont need 20gb let alone more than 12

[lone mango]

Oh also rdna 4 has lower idle power with multiple high refresh rate monitors

That was something amd showed at the reveal

[fresh timber]

word

i be using like 50w just for multi monitor

[frigid stag]

Basically XOC’d gre

[lone mango]

And better avc encoding, although they fixed this too late fr

[lone mango]

Fr

If rdna 3 had better avc, then rdna 3 would be better to a good amount of people imo

[upper rain]

probably a chiplet moment™️

i expect that if RDNA5/UDNA goes chiplet again they'll borrow from Zen 6/7 and use an interposer die. should fix a lot of those issues

[fresh timber]

I'm happy idc about power usage

[lone mango]

Idk if it has to do with that because rdna 2 had high idle too I think

But I think rdna 3 might have been higher

Never made a good comparison between the two but both high end cards had it

[lone mango]

I mean its not a big deal its just that its wasted power

[lone mango]

Maybe

It was their first iteration of it so its entirely possible

My 6700 xt uses 33-34w but goes down to nothing with one monitor

Its like 5w

[fresh timber]

Power cheap anyways

[lone mango]

Or 4

Oh rdna 4 also increased hevc efficiency too

11%

not a lot but cool

Amd was pretty good at hevc already but whatever

[fresh timber]

Buy me 5070 super

[lone mango]

What if thats the move

If they keep the price the same…

Its gonna be 600 with no additional cores and extra vram, watch it happen

[upper rain]

oh really? i wonder if it's just a faulty pstate thing with the driver thing

my understanding was that RDNA 3 idle/multimonitor power draw was so bad because you have to keep that organic interconnect on 24/7, and that's pretty expensive power budget wise

but if RDNA 2 is doing the same, maybe some of that can be resolved

[upper rain]

buy me 5090 ti

Nvidia fanboys when Nvidia slaps 1gb of memory on a cheap PCB and relies exclusively on MFG to get 60fps at 1080p for $700

https://tenor.com/view/jontron-ill-take-your-entire-stock-thats-mine-gif-13637000

[upper rain]

tbf Blackwell isn't selling well

[lone mango]

Nah its the cards

[upper rain]

i think their mindshare has taken a hit

[lone mango]

Well

[frigid stag]

It’s been selling out each restock lol

[upper rain]

but all of them? RDNA 3 i can see it, but 2 is monolithic

[frigid stag]

It’s selling pretty well

[lone mango]

They have done some things via drivers but you can only do so much

I don’t think the 7900 xtx using like 130w+ idle will happen again lmao

But it still asks for a lot

[upper rain]

unless their display out architecture is really really bad it should be fixable. the RDNA 2 cards shouldn't have a lot of overhead unless there are some weird design choices

[upper rain]

yeah but i mean a lot of that is surely the chiplet tax

i'm more concerned with monolithic GPUs doing this

since that seems easily fixable unless there is some really weird stuff going on

Nvidia had a similar problem for a while, but it was just pstates misapplying and running the i/o full tilt at idle

2080 ti 22GB >>>>

[lone mango]

I read up on it and its the monitors constantly being refreshed and not letting the vram clock down

[frigid stag]

Too xoc

[lone mango]

Something like that

[frigid stag]

Titan rtx is the way

For more vram

[upper rain]

yeah that was exactly what Nvidia's issue was

you can just... not clock so high. pstates

[fresh timber]

Which cup has more water

[lone mango]

Yeah same thing for amd too

[upper rain]

b

[frigid stag]

D but I’m just randomly guessing

[lone mango]

Actually I think it was more like the vram couldn’t clock down fast enough

But whatever

Apparently rdna 4 fixes this

Csnt see any proof though

[fresh timber]

[frigid stag]

Oh more water

[upper rain]

you'd be amazed how stupid i am in actuality

[fresh timber]

Imdymber

I'm dumber

I’m considering 5070 for cost saving

I missed it

[dense locust]

bigger object takes up more volume

[lone mango]

If you ever get a 9070 xt let us know what idle power is like

[upper rain]

you should not do that

[lone mango]

Nobody talks about it

[upper rain]

buy my 9070

[nocturne flicker]

I'm not amazed

[upper rain]

wow, now i'm stupid AND a disappointment

[nocturne flicker]

Sorry

[upper rain]

How do you tell which CPU core numbers are E cores on Raptor Lake H?

[fresh timber]

Raptor lake

Uhhh

[tranquil pebble]

H, as in mobile part

[fresh timber]

The first numbers are p+t

So if you have 6p you count from 0-11

After that is e cores

T= treads

[tranquil pebble]

yeah 6p, 4e

13620H

[fresh timber]

So threads 0-11 are P cores, 12-15 is E coews

For some reason they start at 0

[sinful blade]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/9JVGRV
the new pc setup

Technically

[fresh timber]

If you use real person terms 1-12=p 12-16 is E

[tranquil pebble]

this is how computer indexing works

anyone with any background in programming recognizes this pretty much instantly

[nocturne flicker]

So you are saying number 12 is both a P and an E core

[fresh timber]

Braid dies

[tranquil pebble]

Cores that rewire themselves lol

nano fpga cores

[fresh timber]

Ngl that would be cool

A core that fan swap operating modes

P and e mode

Rev

[mental yoke]

the core scheduling crap is garbage and a gimmick by intel and windows

[upper rain]

in a very abstract way Intel was trying to do this with Royal Core

[mental yoke]

there even backtracking on it cus how much it suck

[upper rain]

i think Nova Lake (RIP) was meant to demo it

[tranquil pebble]

I am honestly debating on just disabling e cores entirely

[fresh timber]

Don’t

Disable hyper threading

More gains that way

[tranquil pebble]

HT on a laptop is probably excess heat anyways

[upper rain]

gross

HT gud

[fresh timber]

not for intel

[tranquil pebble]

but idk if HT can be disabled on this laptop

[fresh timber]

i get more fps with hyperthreading off

[mental yoke]

ive seen the scheduler eat cpus that offer that functionality alive

[nocturne flicker]

We should eat more cpus

[upper rain]

in some cases you will. but it limits you in certain ways. your cores are able to do less work in parallel, so once you exceed a certain level of usage, you run into issues faster

[tranquil pebble]

nah, datacenters are eating too much silicon as is

[fresh timber]

atleast for me i dont notice a difrence in my everyday task with it off

[lone mango]

We need more data

[fresh timber]

only thing i notice is my cinebench score being lower

[nocturne flicker]

I want an Athlon omelete for breakfast

[tranquil pebble]

not the AI kind though

[mental yoke]

celerin celery

[upper rain]

well yeah you probably wouldn't notice a difference with just four cores either. daily desktop stuff is small potatoes

[lone mango]

There is never enough data we need more

[tranquil pebble]

Imagine AMD branded food

[upper rain]

mm potatoes and celery

[lone mango]

More databases

[nocturne flicker]

For lunch I'd like a cheese and Pentium sandwich

FX was unworthy of being its successor

[fresh timber]

if i can get dual gpu to run in my main rig i can unironcily run multiply games with out much problem

[upper rain]

too ahead of its time and executed horribly

worst combination

[nocturne flicker]

[lone mango]

Brutal

[fresh timber]

i just have tabs open

[upper rain]

wasn't their high end marketed as a pentium killer at one point

[fresh timber]

[tranquil pebble]

Phenom to FX was like Pentium 3 to Pentium 4...

[lone mango]

Must preserve cpu

[fresh timber]

i should but im impatient asf and want it the same day

[dense locust]

everything was lagging as hell

even the task bar

[upper rain]

you're paying 26% more for 15% more performance

and the non XT has more OC headroom, so OC to OC that gap is even smaller

[fresh timber]

you cant compete with amazon delivery

[upper rain]

fair tbh

[lone mango]

[fresh timber]

iv been waiting like ever sense the 9070xt released to get one

[nocturne flicker]

Hi lover of green trees

[upper rain]

the 9070 is a way better deal broski and it has killer memory cooling

[fresh timber]

im aware

i just like the XT in its name

[upper rain]

trade it in? ur probably going to get scammed resell for more

[fresh timber]

yeahhh

[upper rain]

would it not be better to flex on the peasants with your non XT that is faster than an XT?

[fresh timber]

umm i forgot my seral number

[upper rain]

my non XT is in the top 2% TS graphics scores for full XT cards lol

[fresh timber]

Take gpu. Put it beneath a clock

okey

[sinful blade]

What gpu

[safe cape]

i want to do MAX 1417 max

what i should do in STATUT 1/2/3/4/5/6 ?

(amd software adrenaline )

[safe cape]

vega 64

because i started getting white artifact

[nocturne flicker]

Uh. Maybe set Statut 6 and 7 to 1417?

[safe cape]

idk XD

okey

and for undervolt ?

how to ?

[nocturne flicker]

I'm guessing those knobs are tied to Statut? If so I imagine you turn down the last two knobs to be similar to 1100 because you are also turning down STATUT 6 and 7 to a similar clock as 5

I don't OC much and I don't think AMD uses Statut anymore for their current cards so I have no experience with that

[safe cape]

okey

thanks so much

amd recommend this for undervolt

going lower isnt bad ?

[nocturne flicker]

You'd have to test for stability.
