[fresh timber]

ill tell you whre if u show me

[grand kernel]

nvm

i see it lol

it didn't show up until i loaded a save file

[fresh timber]

lmfao

[grand kernel]

yeah

[fresh timber]

i was confused too

[hoary zodiac]

Every game I want to play doesn't need the dgpu

[fresh timber]

dont worry

[hoary zodiac]

Bruh

[grand kernel]

i was looking at it in the menu and that was empty

[safe cape]

FACTORIO

Lol

[hoary zodiac]

Oh

💀

[dusk knot]

Lmao

Downloaded season 1

[hoary zodiac]

That's way before the good stuff

[grand kernel]

should i use frame gen from within optiscaler?

or continue using the game's frame gen

[hoary zodiac]

Even by season 1 standards

[safe cape]

game ?

[grand kernel]

cyberpunk

oh wow this FSR4 definitely does look better when moving

[fresh timber]

your welcome ❤️

[grand kernel]

game looks almost as good as it did on the 4080 now

with same fps

[hoary zodiac]

aaaand I can run this on the igpu

It's harder than I thought

finding a game I actually want to play that can use the dgpu

might just run the game at 300Hz

at max settings

that'll do

[safe cape]

u can play indie games

[hoary zodiac]

no

[safe cape]

run 60 ez

[hoary zodiac]

I'm trying to use my dgpu

[fresh timber]

oblivion remasted

[upper wedge]

Try running WoW

[fresh timber]

marvel rivals

fortnite

[hoary zodiac]

none of those games run on linux

[fresh timber]

indiana jones

[lone mango]

[safe cape]

ohh

[lone mango]

[fresh timber]

[upper wedge]

Minecraft with shaders

[safe cape]

try risk of rain 2

[dusk knot]

Airplane mode time

[safe cape]

will run ez

[hoary zodiac]

I don't play crappy fps games

I'd rather play CS2

[fresh timber]

rivals isnt crappy

tf

[upper wedge]

what’s your rank

[fresh timber]

havent played rank

[lone mango]

Believe it or not he can play that with the igpu

Crazy

[hoary zodiac]

lmao

I can run GTA V with the igpu too

although that's a really low bar

[rancid juniper]

LOL

[upper wedge]

you can run gta on anything tbh

[rancid juniper]

lmao even

[hoary zodiac]

yeah you can run it on what

a GTX 580

[upper wedge]

Just reset your cookies

[rancid juniper]

i wont do that

ill find a way

[upper wedge]

Not all of them

[lone mango]

The io die igpu can run gta 5

[hoary zodiac]

can lego star wars run on the igpu

[fresh timber]

i know a way, buy oyutube premium

[upper wedge]

Just YouTube’s cookies

[rancid juniper]

ok

[hoary zodiac]

It's not even the good igpu

it's a vega

[lone mango]

I saw a guy running it with a 7800x3d

[hoary zodiac]

tf?

[lone mango]

Yeah am5 igpu can run gta 5

[upper wedge]

They steal enough of your data to figure out you’re running an ad blocker, just let them keep stealing over n over

[hoary zodiac]

yeah lego sw runs on the igpu

sigh

[upper wedge]

Can you play rust?

🔥

[hoary zodiac]

Mass effect does in fact run on the igpu

[fresh timber]

play no man sky

and helldivers

[lone mango]

[rancid juniper]

maybe i should block em from using cookies then

[hoary zodiac]

rust...

[upper wedge]

I actually got banned from helldivers discord funny enough

[hoary zodiac]

rust doesn't run on my igpu actually

[fresh timber]

how

[upper wedge]

Delete them

[hoary zodiac]

I might scrape by actually

by lowering settings

could probably run fsr through proton

[rancid juniper]

just did

[upper wedge]

Some guy was flexing that his pc was 14k usd with 20tb of storage, and I accused him of something..

[hoary zodiac]

while technically I can run it on the igpu

at that point I'd just run it with the dgpu

[rancid juniper]

now works

thanks

[hoary zodiac]

for less hassle

[lone mango]

I have my browser clear cookies when closing

Except for a few exceptions

[hoary zodiac]

I have sniper elite 3 I guess

[upper wedge]

I mean I hate signing in n out of google

[hoary zodiac]

oh wtf that runs on nothing

[upper wedge]

But if YouTube ad blocker stops working, I’ll sign in again

[upper wedge]

Is this I have no mouth but I must scream

[craggy shoal]

Bro my hobbies include logging in and out of websites 💀

[hoary zodiac]

sniper elite 3

[fresh timber]

chat can a 1660 super run 1440p on rivals and roblox at 60fps

[upper wedge]

Damn

[rancid juniper]

absolute pain

[hoary zodiac]

alright screw it

I'm just gonna play war thunder on my igpu

don't need the dgpu

[fresh timber]

wt runs good on anything

[hoary zodiac]

can't find a game that I actually want to play

[upper wedge]

Play wt on stretch res

[hoary zodiac]

that uses the dgpu

[lone mango]

5800h igpu getting 40-45 fps on cyberjunk 720p low

[upper wedge]

With an igpu

Or dgpu

[craggy shoal]

Yeah I also remember wanting a 4K monitor to pair with my RX 480

[hoary zodiac]

I'm going to play navy

👍

[safe cape]

genre you like ?

[hoary zodiac]

uh

Not AAA slop

ahh Scharnhorst my beloved

gonna take forever to grind

[lone mango]

https://youtu.be/7fHmkKaz-Wc

[fresh timber]

5600g with a 9060xt, i wonder how it would go

[acoustic palm]

@fresh timber

[08:58 PM] Level 319 ➡ [320]

[fresh timber]

i got my friend to go for a 1440p monitor instead

[fresh timber]

me and my friend was just talking about it

[safe cape]

for 1440p not bad

[fresh timber]

yeah

[safe cape]

i have one

[fresh timber]

im having my friend go 1440p with his 4060 until he upgrades

[acoustic palm]

trust gimme stuff

[lone mango]

Totally unnecessary but I want to get it

I just got the 6700 xt like two months ago

[safe cape]

@hoary zodiac

just started im rank 3 right now

[worthy meteor]

oh no

another wart hunder player

[safe cape]

i think i will stop on the spitfire

[worthy meteor]

They're adding bismarck next update soooo

[safe cape]

rank 4 max

[worthy meteor]

there is no end to the grind

you cannot stop

[hoary zodiac]

tbh

[safe cape]

yes i will XD

[hoary zodiac]

I welcome that change

[safe cape]

can you help

wich ammo i should use againt planes in arcade mode

[hoary zodiac]

you can actually play the battleships people care about

[worthy meteor]

air targets

[hoary zodiac]

not that people don't care about the Scharnhorst

[worthy meteor]

default belt with early hispanos might still have practice rounds that do nothing

[fresh timber]

how hard is it for no man sky to include fsr 4.0

fsr4 supports so many games at launch yet it feels like so little

[hoary zodiac]

I like how Gaijin fixed navy arcade

which was just

"click on circle simulator" before

[lone mango]

Not really its pretty small

[fresh timber]

fsr4 not wokring on vulkan damn

[lone mango]

.

[fresh timber]

oh warzone has it

damn

[lone mango]

Dont even work on cyberpunk which is silly

How cdpr not gonna put it

[hoary zodiac]

I wonder if you can train modern computers to fight a ww2 style naval battle

[safe cape]

dont have that why ?

[hoary zodiac]

Imagine an Iowa armed with computer controlled turrets

and AA guns

[worthy meteor]

use whatever has the most HE/HEI/HEIT

[safe cape]

okey thanks

[hoary zodiac]

AP is best for armored cruisers right?

heavy cruisers***

[worthy meteor]

use whatever you need to pen what you're firing at

AP against heavy things, SAP against smaller ships

SAP has more HE, does more postpen damage

[fresh timber]

the only reason im not selling my ps5 is cause gta6

[hoary zodiac]

I'm basically trying to sink heavy cruisers with a light cruiser

[worthy meteor]

yea uh load AP and good luck

[hoary zodiac]

does it even have enough caliber?

see the problem is

[worthy meteor]

you're not going to do much damage but good luck

[hoary zodiac]

the heavy cruisers are going to spam me

I might go in on a torpedo boat

and kill the cruisers

before going in on my cruiser

[worthy meteor]

yea naval uptier is just kinda screwed for you

you're not going to be able to reach them in a torpedo boat

[hoary zodiac]

I mean

[worthy meteor]

unless they get into dumb spots they're going to be far from any cover

[hoary zodiac]

now that the game's less of a point and click sim

I could try to troll

[worthy meteor]

and you will get spammed with secondary guns

[hoary zodiac]

hmm

DD?

that's a bigger target sadly

[worthy meteor]

same thing, you won't be able to get close enough

[hoary zodiac]

so I'd need a cruiser

at least

[worthy meteor]

yea

[hoary zodiac]

WT just becomes a sniping match

at higher tiers

[worthy meteor]

torpedos are kind of long range hope and pray tbh

[hoary zodiac]

honestly that'd work

with how many players that just

[worthy meteor]

it does work

[hoary zodiac]

stop their ships

[worthy meteor]

basically every single torpedo kill I have gotten is at long range

[hoary zodiac]

Every torpedo kill I got is close range or point blank

I love trolling in torpedo boats

and destroyers

[worthy meteor]

every time I try to do close range it's within the arming range and it just doesn't do anything

[hoary zodiac]

you're not going to believe this

[worthy meteor]

only ever worked like twice

[hoary zodiac]

I was in a cruiser once right?

ok so there was this heavy cruiser

I got within point blank range

in a cruiser

and torpedoed a heavy cruiser

... IN A CRUISER

and he didn't try to shoot at the massive target that's next to him

[worthy meteor]

people are weird

[hoary zodiac]

He had to be zoomed in the whole time

to miss a whole cruiser

Are the WW1 era ships even good tbh

I feel like the panzerschiff can take on the battleship/battlecruisers

except for armor

[fresh timber]

i should buy syberpunk

[worthy meteor]

the fire control really really really really sucks

[fresh timber]

id buy cyberp-unk just to never play it

[worthy meteor]

it's incredibly slow and inaccurate

[hoary zodiac]

so you can quite literally just run circles around a dreadnought

with a panzerschiff

[worthy meteor]

I mean if they zero you in and hit you, you'll have a terrible time

[hoary zodiac]

yeah but funny pocket battleship

plan z larp

big guns go boom

I have a soft spot for the panzerschiffe

stupidly oversized guns

[worthy meteor]

glass cannon

[hoary zodiac]

They're good against merchant ships

but since there was ya know

no surface fleet

In reality they were pretty useless in a strategic sense

especially when one of them was just sent to die in south america

[fresh timber]

i might get rdr2

[hoary zodiac]

top ten naval fails

Imagine getting gaslit into scuttling your own ship

[lavish stag]

late ass response lol. I'm just curious what memory timing is in general

[fresh timber]

https://a.co/d/3OUzPjc do i cop

[worn wave]

The main things to know are the speed and the cas latency.
Speed is the big number "6000mhz" (really MT/s) and case latency is after the cl; "cl30"
The speed is how much data can be transferred per second and the latency is how many clock cycles it takes to start fetching requested data

6200cl30 or 6000cl32 are kinda the sweet spot for am5 CPUs

[lone mango]

https://a.co/d/dRxmHvZ

[worn wave]

Yeah looks like 6000cl30 is the cheapest rn lol

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/4cCCmG/patriot-viper-venom-32-gb-2-x-16-gb-ddr5-6000-cl30-memory-pvv532g600c30k

[lone mango]

I just learned something new today

The nouveau driver for linux is almost entirely based on information obtained from reverse engineering nvidias driver

[upper rain]

looking fir shopping advice or knowledge? shopping advice is to simply get whatever is cheapest at a speed that makes sense, without majorly comprimising advertised timings. but XMP and EXPO suck, so there is not a meaningful difference unless the difference in timings is really quite significant

but knowledge of what these timings do is rather more complicated, if that is what you are after

[lone mango]

I love teamgroup ram

[upper rain]

i don't think i can say what i read that as in this server

i'm tired man

[lone mango]

How is nouveau legal

[upper rain]

was it from that leak/breach nvidia had in 2021?

[lone mango]

No thats the open source nvidia driver for linux

Its almost entirely based off information obtained from their reverse engineering tool

I have no clue how they got away with that

Must be because its different enough from the nvidia driver

Like its not the nvidia driver but it is compatible with nvidia cards

Typa stuff

[upper rain]

ah

i was more asking if they were able to reverse engineer it because of leaked information. but it's even more interesting that they seemingly did not

[opaque sedge]

How would one play music simultaneously while gaming?

Tried apple music absolute garbage app on windows

Keeps logging me out

[lone mango]

Ok so its not illegal because their tool basically looks at how the driver behaves, and not disassembling the code

I was like

Bro how did they do this

[worn night]

"breaking"

[tranquil pebble]

what the vehicle would be doing

[worn night]

lol

[craggy shoal]

[acoustic palm]

@rancid juniper help

i did something now my gpu aint being registered

[rancid juniper]

what did you do and wdym by not registered?

the gpu not responding/showing up in device manager?

[acoustic palm]

i accidentally pressed a setting in adrenaline then unselected it, my screen flashed a lot, now my gpu aint showing in adrenaline or task manager

[rancid juniper]

WTF

[keen wind]

Rip

[rancid juniper]

AMD adrenalin killin cards now?

[lone mango]

Still being vague

What did you press

[rancid juniper]

it could be some OC setting

and probably went too far automatically

[acoustic palm]

like eye smth?

[spark halo]

Have you tried reseting the bios

[rancid juniper]

AMD eyefinity?

[acoustic palm]

maybe?>

[rancid juniper]

bro was too curious

[spark halo]

Yep

[keen wind]

to eyefinity and beyond

[acoustic palm]

i accidentally pressed it

😭

[rancid juniper]

ok can you atleast boot into safe mode and DDU the gpu?

[acoustic palm]

ugh

[dense locust]

yeah ill reinstall drivers

[rancid juniper]

why tf did yall tell me to get these fans

[fresh timber]

I would buy but no reverse blade

[acoustic palm]

im actually about to crash out

why tf didnt yall tell me about these

[lone mango]

[fresh timber]

[acoustic palm]

shut up bro

[fresh timber]

Bought cheaper fans

Just want airflow

[acoustic palm]

im just gonna go sleep now

I won't contest it

[lone mango]

I think you can run drg with the igpu

https://youtu.be/PtcE816IJ0k

[fresh timber]

fsr4 at native is good

[lone mango]

Is there a discernable difference between quality and native

[fresh timber]

i love how i get no improvment

[lone mango]

https://youtu.be/8uwn7ioUHTk

We love profits, we love scale

It must increase

[sinful blade]

Why would a 3060ti not allow some games to run? Like beamng for example.

Trying to get this 3060ti for $65if I can figure out a fix.

[upper wedge]

is it broken or smth?

cause no way there isn't something fishy with a 3060ti like that

[sinful blade]

It still works, he just doesn’t have the issue on most titles. Just a select few

[upper wedge]

What model? If it’s an Eagle they like to die pretty fast, artifact, cracked this, broken that, etc

[sinful blade]

Pny

[upper wedge]

they run hot, just simply cheap cooler. i've seen some appear on facebook with "instability issues" but that's probably cause of overvolt with the cheap cooler, no clue if you're able to meet with them but possibly try undervolting & test stability?

[sinful blade]

They’re like 3 hours away

[upper wedge]

I guess it depends on what event viewer says after the crash too

[sinful blade]

Hmmmm

[upper wedge]

ah shucks

[sinful blade]

Do I risk $75

[upper wedge]

I thought it was 65 😭

imo i'd risk it, somebody's willing to buy a "broken" gpu for $100

cause if it has instability issues on beamng but perfectly plays fortnite, cs2, rust, minecraft, roblox, somebody's going to buy it

[hoary zodiac]

Does it run stable on Dese?

[misty sparrow]

Just like that gooner GPU in #tech-deals a while back

should’ve snatched it while you had the chance

[upper wedge]

this is like the equalivent of ohnepixel's mac 10 💔

https://tenor.com/view/mac-10-incident-iem-katowice-2025-ohnepixel-gif-8824609454322277622

[nocturne flicker]

Sadly those do not have enough volume to be stable

[hoary zodiac]

💀

[slate ice]

My PC keeps crashing on me. Anyone interested to help?

[elfin mural]

what kinda crashes are you experiencing

pc suddenly shuts off with no errors or bsod's?

bsod?

game frozen?

[lone mango]

Maybe

There is a game called hell is us and its trash

Mandatory upscaling to get a good fps and it looks old even though it uses ue5

The character moves like a 2010s game

[lone mango]

4090 cannot run it native

[upper wedge]

he sold his mac10 for like a few grand, then like 5-6 months later or smth it like 3-5x in value I think & ppl give him crap for it

also who here is near a microcenter

because usually they all do the same open boxes at each store, blah blah blah, open box 4080S for 791$

[lone mango]

I see why people hate epic. I mean they hate them for other reasons but their current engine and ray tracing are the biggest scams pulled off in gaming, with ray tracing being the biggest one ever

[lone mango]

Open box 9060 xt would go so crazy bro

Ngl

[upper wedge]

is the 9060xt really that good atm?

[lone mango]

Only unofficial benchmarks but its basically a cheaper 7700 xt

I was assuming this for a while and it turned out to be true

It has more vram, better scam tracing performance and better video encoding

Supposedly will cost 350 but you know what powercolor and xfx will do

Who is ready for a $450 9060 xt

Because they are

[upper wedge]

hopefully microcenter keeps it msrp

[lone mango]

Not up to them, thats the board partner

There will be some msrp models of course

Maybe like 1 or 2

[upper wedge]

well ya, but they're advertising the "starting at 300$"

[lone mango]

I am not paying a dime over like 370, ideally 350

[upper wedge]

with the crappy asrock dual

https://www.microcenter.com/search/search_results.aspx?Ntk=all&sortby=match&prt=clearance&N=4294966937&myStore=true

[lone mango]

[upper wedge]

whoops wrong link

[lone mango]

16 is 350

[upper wedge]

ohhhh

[lone mango]

Yeah dont fall for it

[upper wedge]

welp, we pray for open boxes in times like these 💔

[lone mango]

Open box tracker

[upper wedge]

also put in the st louis park store in, see if there's any open boxes that are worth

[upper wedge]

i've wanted to find one but it's gatekept so hard

[lone mango]

Idk if there is one for micro center

I was just saying it idk if such a thing is real

[upper wedge]

I mean there's 100% trackers for it, but probably built personally

[lone mango]

I had a massive consoomerist urge to get one but there is no point as my cpu handles av1 encoding just fine

[lone mango]

Most realistic outcome

[upper wedge]

I'm going to ask my paid chatgpt subscription if it can write me a discord bot code for something like that 💔

[lone mango]

Ngl grok goes super hard

[upper wedge]

plus microcenter supposedly updates their website every 15 minutes for new items/open box

[lone mango]

This is valuable information

[upper wedge]

I genuinely think chatgpt made a working script, just I have no clue how to do python

[elfin mural]

https://wccftech.com/tsmc-1-4nm-angstrom-process-said-to-cost-45000-per-wafer/

45k per wafer

[lone mango]

Apple exclusive

So we dont have to worry for a bit

Amd will go on to 2nm

By then 1.4 will be viable

[lone mango]

Idk I have never created something from scratch before

Only have made modifications to code

Also they should drop the naming because the nm stuff stopped having meaning a long time ago

What’s their other way of saying it

N1.4?

Do something like intel with 20A, 18A or something in that caliber

[upper wedge]

I made the bot do it's thing, only issue is that my pc needs to stay on & it's currently not detecting any open boxes 💔

[fresh timber]

I’m lost on what stutter

[frigid stag]

Probably Fortnite or something

[fresh timber]

I’m not stuttering

Confusion 100

[frigid stag]

They used to in performance mode

Idk how they are now

[mental yoke]

9070s stutter so bad 👿

9070xtutter

[tranquil pebble]

[tranquil pebble]

Well, was slightly annoyed but that is all.

[acoustic palm]

What is he saying

[craggy shoal]

Just an Nvidia fanboy

[wary fjord]

ill upgrade when we hit 0.1nm

[hoary zodiac]

Isn't that the size of an atom

Is it even possible to make transistors that small with silicon

[wary fjord]

trust

[proud jackal]

[hoary zodiac]

Based????

Ok this is just pathetic

Wait

Does it get outperformed by a Chinese card

AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

Generation performance ladies and gentlemen

This is something I expect to see from sandy bridge to ivy bridge

Not on a gpu

[chrome mirage]

That looks pretty bad

[hoary zodiac]

And I thought the 4060 was bad

Wtf is this

Hey at least they matched the last gen TI card this gen

Good job nvidia

👏 👏 I hate nvidia so much

[frigid stag]

Gpu performance also kinda peaked

[craggy shoal]

Wow a GPU from 2020 does better than a GPU released five years later

[upper rain]

so it's a 3060 ti for $300? we had this years ago, even new lol

[frigid stag]

It wasn’t that cheap but ye like 399 or something

[craggy shoal]

$500* (fake MSRP or something)

[spark plume]

So Since Windows is no longer using IE an is using ME do I really need to Keep IE?

[craggy shoal]

Honestly I don't use either of them lol

[rancid juniper]

Just delete IE entirely

Thing so outdated it can probably catch a virus in a couple seconds

[spark plume]

Thats what I was thinking

[upper rain]

$400 was MSRP but just before Ada and RDNA 3 launched you could routinely get them for $350, $300 wasn't that uncommon if you shopped open box or B stock or whatever

why is my bios so small on this monitor LOL

[craggy shoal]

Turn on full HD mode (forgot what it's called in ASRock BIOSs)

[grand kernel]

it's on

[craggy shoal]

uhhhh

idk

[grand kernel]

well, it's auto

but the only settings are auto and disabled

so i assume auto is as enabled as it can get

leaving the bios area with my mouse causes it to draw white rectangles wherever my mouse is lol

[proud jackal]

I don't have any good one

[nocturne flicker]

You can borrow this

[dense locust]

If that monitor is 4k looks like it’s full hd to me

[lone mango]

[upper rain]

pine needles in water homie, it has natural yeast to make it fizzy

you just add sugar and juice/syrup and wait a few days

[lone mango]

[upper rain]

it'll be good, trust

i'll send a vid of me drinking in it a few days when its done

[lone mango]

How mad but chill

[upper rain]

i'm not mad!!! i'm feeling quite good

i had an extra day off, and i made pie and soda, and i still have time to do other stuff

[nocturne flicker]

Bro is making soda not beer

[upper rain]

yeah that's what i said lol

i might try to make mead at some point also, but i'm doing simple stuff first

[nocturne flicker]

I guess if you throw juice in it'd be sweet wine instead of beer

[upper rain]

if i ever make anything alcoholic it would be for friends/family. i don't drink really

[nocturne flicker]

I don't drink either, so I dunno this stuff

[tranquil pebble]

Wine is very specifically made with fermented grapes

why do they make the melatonin gummies taste so good

[royal crow]

Cuz they want you to get addicted

[fresh timber]

Why they mad at the better card

[icy ore]

Silly

Unfortunately msrp for 9070xt was supposed to be $599 smh

[upper rain]

5070 ti is better than 9070 xt

[lone mango]

Because the gigabyte is supposed to be $100 cheaper

[fresh timber]

Wrong

I seen benchmarks

[upper rain]

right

[fresh timber]

They are the same thing

[lone mango]

Still should be $100 cheaper anyway

[upper rain]

yeah but 5070 ti has better upscaling and RT

[lone mango]

That will soon change

[fresh timber]

Is dlss better than fsr4.0 also raster better

Atleast our launch drivers didn’t brick cards

[lone mango]

If only the card was a little over $100 cheaper

[worn wave]

Dlss4 is better than fsr4, yes

[fresh timber]

Redstone will fix that

[lone mango]

It is better but not by much ngl

On average its in between dlss 3 and 4

But thats an average

[fresh timber]

So why shouldn’t you just buy 5070ti

[worn wave]

The transformer model image quality in motion is a good deal better. But the performance overhead is also a bit larger I believe

[lone mango]

Sometimes it really is similar to dlss 4

[lone mango]

Yeah

[lone mango]

Werent you just blue last night

Who is doing this bruh

[fresh timber]

Blues

[worn wave]

Personally I really value the in-motion clarity and I think stills are a bad comparison for upscaling

[lone mango]

Yeah its like taa just dont move bro

[worn wave]

Yeah just look at the still image, don't use your mouse and keyboard ffs

Look, it's better quality than native when you don't move at all!

[lone mango]

Play with a controller on low sensitivity for the optimal experience

cinematic

[fresh timber]

I just played rivals on fsr4

I’m ngl

[velvet summit]

oh hey, may dac supports mqa

[fresh timber]

Idk the difference between 4 and 3

Gameplay wise they feel the same

[lone mango]

I guess you could do 4 and then turn down the resolution one more click to get more frames

Thats basically the takeaway from the new upscalers

[fresh timber]

Wanna know what’s funny

[lone mango]

They are like an extra toggle up in upscaling

Balanced becomes quality

[fresh timber]

My friend has a 9070xt and 5090 and he swears 9070xt visually looks better on oblivion remastered

Amd is giving away 9800x3d upgrade

So I need

[lone mango]

I definitely dont

Or want because of the board I have

Doomed to never use x3d

[fresh timber]

lol I want a upgrade but like, I don’t

On the sense I think my cpu is fast enough

I’ll upgrade if I still can’t reach 240 in my games

[velvet summit]

which mf did this

[lone mango]

I gotta see if asrock updated bios versions again

[fresh timber]

If I sell my desktop I would just make a new pc around the 9070xt

Of course I’m getting a better cpu than quom

i need $1500 https://pcpartpicker.com/list/sY7tBq

[frigid stag]

Pretty much

[fresh timber]

time tto sell main rig for $1500

[frigid stag]

You’re actually selling it?

Why

[fresh timber]

im selling my pcs

2nd pc and maybe main pc

i could go x3d if i sell main pc and still pocket money

[misty sparrow]

I wonder if bottlenecking is real or if it's only if you have a really outdated CPU

[fresh timber]

bottleneck is real

5500 is bottlenecking 9070xt in rivals

[acoustic palm]

NO WAY

[misty sparrow]

I always did wonder if my 8th gen intel CPU would bottleneck a rtx 3xxx series card

so I never got a new card for that build

[fresh timber]

why are fans so expensive these days

$130

[misty sparrow]

I thought they were pretty cheap

case fans, right?

[fresh timber]

yes phantex d30 are $130 now

they used to be $80

[frigid stag]

Probably not unless it’s an i3 or something like that

[fresh timber]

3090 and 9th gen i5

[frigid stag]

If it’s unlocked it’s fine

[fresh timber]

they say that until ur on a cpu game

rivals

[frigid stag]

That’s mostly gpu bound

[fresh timber]

nuh uh

[frigid stag]

It’s gpu bound even on low settings, like 99% gpu usage

[fresh timber]

9070xt and 7700xt get the same fps

explain that gpu bound

[frigid stag]

Is it lower gpu usage at least

[fresh timber]

nah its maxing its just low fps

im sitting at 60-80

[frigid stag]

Ye idk that’s strange

[fresh timber]

13600kf+7700xt will get 130fps easily

[lone mango]

https://www.serversupply.com/PROCESSORS/AMD EPYC 16-core/4.2/AMD/100-000001145_402213.htm

[fresh timber]

its a cpu thing

[frigid stag]

Usually it’s sitting like 85 to 90% if there’s more to go

[fresh timber]

from what i found, usage doesnt repersent the true story

u can max a gpu out and still be bottlenecked

[frigid stag]

🤔

[misty sparrow]

okay guess my i5-8400 shouldn't be a problem

[frigid stag]

Uh maybe if it’s a 3060 or something

[misty sparrow]

not that it's any loss, the case itself won't fit a 3-fan card

[frigid stag]

It should be ok

[fresh timber]

if i like these fans im buying a bunch for my main rig

[misty sparrow]

if you like them

[fresh timber]

yeh

i bought them

[frigid stag]

They look like Lian li clones

[fresh timber]

yup

for cheap

and @acoustic palm will never get them

[frigid stag]

[fresh timber]

im using these fans in a flip

i unironcily wanna buy some of those lian li lcd fans

[fresh timber]

why

[acoustic palm]

So I will not be getting new ram

[fresh timber]

just sell ur ram on ebay

[acoustic palm]

He’s getting a console and monitor since he doesn’t play games that much

[lone mango]

Understandable

[fresh timber]

consoles suck

my p s5 is a show piece

[acoustic palm]

Since 400 for a series x and it’ll do everything he needs it to do

[fresh timber]

ps5 better imo

[lone mango]

400 for that is pretty good

[acoustic palm]

Nah

Gamepass

[fresh timber]

thats what pc is for

[acoustic palm]

I told him I can always sell him my old pc

[fresh timber]

sell it for $400

[acoustic palm]

But he just doesn’t have time

[fresh timber]

but he has time to buy the xbox

[acoustic palm]

It’s literally way less time to get and setup a console than a pc

[fresh timber]

it took me way longer to setup my ps5 than it was my pc

my pc took 20mins, pst took about a hour

[acoustic palm]

That seems like a skill issue

[fresh timber]

console updates, making account, etc

pc needs no accounts

[nocturne flicker]

150ms latency

[tranquil pebble]

but seriously I don't mind turning graphics down if need be, but the game should still look good

and especially it should not look like PS2 era textures lol

I accidentally benchmarked my Intel UHD with Saints Row IV... it was able to run the game on Ultra but it was not very smooth. Switching to the 4060M made it run Ultra really good though ofc

I think my laptop iGPU only has like 2 Xe cores though

[lone mango]

Did they try hiding the smear by exporting to 1080p

Well it still smears in movement

so

[dusk knot]

😂

[lone mango]

Its gonna be one of those where you turn down settings and get very little improvement

Like doom or oblivion

Just guessing but thats what i think

[tranquil pebble]

Doom The Dark Ages runs pretty well on my laptop

1080p, no framegen, no upscale

nvm they cost $250

Thats cheap

for printers at least

Also that video is in 60 fps but it looks like 30

I wanna 3d print new wings on my gpu

[lone mango]

You gotta spam the printer to get the most out of it

Making brackets and fitments or attachments

250 pays off over time
