or even on-die

lone mango
#

What if unified is the future

hoary zodiac
#

I don't see that catching on

#

At least on desktop

elfin mural
#

on laptops it caught on rather well

hoary zodiac
#

You don't tend to upgrade a laptop

lone mango
#

Yeah its gonna be a mobile thing probably

nocturne flicker
hoary zodiac
#

If I can't upgrade my ram

#

Then why would I buy a desktop

elfin mural
#

intel core ultra 200V series has on-package memory

#

16/32gb

hoary zodiac
#

That kills half the value of having a desktop

#

It would be a stupid choice to make

#

All for numbers on a chart

elfin mural
#

maybe i guess it acts as L4 cache lol

#

if it's on desktop

hoary zodiac
#

I mean it makes sense on mobile

#

Mobile devices aren't exactly in the same market as desktop

lone mango

Does anybody have the kaze flex 2 slim

hoary zodiac

I'm fine with losing flexibility on mobile

To a certain extent

If I can gain efficiency

#

On desktop that matters a whole lot less

oof

hoary zodiac
#

Is the fan blade just touching something

elfin mural
#

that's also possible

hoary zodiac
lone mango
#

Something weird tho

hoary zodiac
#

But I'd still take the laptop for one use case

#

And use the desktop for another

#

It's just different scenarios

lone mango
#

I can move the blades back and forth

hoary zodiac
#

Soldered ram makes sense in one

#

Doesn't in another

the blades can move?

Next-Gen Core Ultra with 28 cores, Arrow Lake-Refresh mentioned as well Intelโ€™s plans for the LGA-1851 socket are still somewhat unclear, but at the very least, the company is preparing a refresh of existing Arrow Lake processors. Whether this refresh will be minor or more meaningful depends on perspective. If we go back a year, [โ€ฆ]

That thing is gonna get rekt in multicore

#

84 E core cpu with 300w tdp wen?

#

Need some low power low power efficient cores

#

What is the point of E cores when they are no longer considered efficient enough that they also have to slap some LPE cores on there too

#

Also how much overhead will be added because they added another layer of complexity to the scheduling

craggy shoal
# rancid juniper

52 cores at 150W. Either a dream come true or it might be another thermal disaster and that the actual TDP will be something crazy like 300W lol. All while costing $700

nocturne flicker
#

I imagine Win11 is mandatoryderpyBlob

rancid juniper
#

im curious if the LPE cores can be overclocked

nocturne flicker
frigid stag
#

yeah dont trust tdp. 14900k is 150tdp too

#

its below 150 in games though

lone mango
nocturne flicker
#

E cores are also supposed to be lower power cores designed to improve efficiency by shunting less resource heavy and background tasks to them while the P cores do the more important work. derpyBlob

lone mango
#

E cores still have the majority of instructions that p cores do

#

Nowadays they do use less power though

nocturne flicker
#

No. E cores aren't supposed to be a ton of cores you shove in to close the perf gap. That is what they are doing now because they have no better alternative, but E cores were specifically rolled out as lower power lower perf cores designed to save energy by scheduling specific tasks to them instead of P cores

#

I imagine they've also shifted scheduling to redistribute some of the things E cores are supposed to be doing to the LPE cores so that they can try and use the E cores even more as bulk pepeg P cores

dusk knot
nocturne flicker
#

Okay, I'm wrong. Intel was also talking about scalable multithreading with E cores when they first rolled them out. The media I saw from them was just the stuff emphasizing power saving and task scheduling

#

Atleast the archived webpage explaining E cores on 12th gen says it

#

I don't have any other source material on hand besides a video of two dudes from Intel saying E cores are for energy efficiency

#

Unfortunate

modern imp
#

E cores are for boosting multicore performance with less silicon area and ring stops

#

LPE cores are for efficiency at idle/low load

lone mango
#

But fr though I do think they were still supposed to still use less power

#

But it was more about scaling instead

modern imp
#

the E cores do pull less power but can be worse PPW

lone mango
modern imp
#

Raptorcove has higher performance per watt than gracemont because it can complete the work in less time and downclock to an idle state

#

Race to idle matters for burst loads

nocturne flicker
lone mango
#

Whatever the codename is

#

Is it raptorcove

nocturne flicker
#

The rest of the details on that page was about size difference and how the performance compared to the P cores

#

They specifically said it is supposed to scale multithreaded performance and save power by taking up background tasks while using less power

misty sparrow
#

heheh, P cores

elfin mural
#

what feels contradictory with the whole design is

#

why have LPE cores

#

when E cores were touted to serve that very purpose

#

but at least it bears fruit in the lunar lake lineup

#

with 20 hours or more of battery life

nocturne flicker
#

I think LPE cores specifically nixes the scalable multithreading portion and just serves the efficiency purpose. Probably by being an even worse E core

#

I'd still like to know what it does to overhead by making scheduling more complex

modern imp
#

so the entire ring/L3 can shut down

lone mango
#

Windows 11 update will peg those 4 baby cores to the max

elfin mural
#

i see

#

and i mean i do like the outcome that intel pulled off

#

20h battery life is a massive improvement

#

on windows at that

icy ore
elfin mural
#

and on smaller batteries as well

#

since many thin laptops tend to use 76wh

#

or less

#

a big batt lunar lake laptop would last an entire day

#

24 hours

modern imp
#

because you can shut off the entire d2d fabric to the main cpu cores

elfin mural
#

that's honestly smart

modern imp
#

because if the laptop was just watching a video and doing nothing else you don't want it pulling 5-7w idle

#

because of the d2d fabric

#

it basically avoids the arrowlake desktop/zen idle problem for just sitting on the desktop

#

it's getting added on nova desktop which honestly doesn't matter much for desktop, but it's huge for HX since that shares silicon

#

5-10w idle on a gaming desktop is a non issue

#

on a gaming laptop that is a huge issue

elfin mural
#

i see

#

so that's why i can never get below 7w idle lol

#

my next laptop might be a next gen intel

More wonโ€™t hurt

royal crow

yeah

#

i have an 850W rn and my system draws like MAYBE 500 under load

modern imp
#

even if all the cores are parked those still have to stay on

upper rain

^

#

having an active interposer base tile massively reduces idle power draw, which is why they aren't idling at like 30w like a lot of desktop ryzens do. but there is still a penalty

But yes transformer model tends to be better than TAA

upper rain

especially in RT titles, but not exclusively

worn wave
#

TAA off shouldn't be blurry at all. Maybe undersampled but no ghosting

upper rain
#

folliage in particular just looks like complete garbage in a lot of games, and while it's far from perfect with dlss, it's at least not tearing across the screen

upper rain
worn wave
#

Yeah TAA is temporal anti aliasing. Temporal causes ghosting

upper rain
#

yes i am aware

worn wave
#

"temporal lighting"?

#

It's undersampled and then TAA or other temporal methods are used to fill the rest in

#

There's aliasing when TAA is off but that isn't blur

lone mango
#

I love slow lighting

upper rain
#

i'm not a graphics engineer, i just like computer hardware. what i am saying is that in games with complex lighting and shadowing, particularly modern/recent ones, and most especially UE5 games, even with TAA off, the lighting and often shadows are blurry and ghost. if the lighting is handled by a TAA pass separate from whatever AA method is used/not used for the rest of the frame then sure, it's a TAA issue. but at that point if i can't fix that bc it's baked into how the scene is rendered then it's a moot point

lone mango
#

I love the brightness slowly increase leaving a room. Itโ€™s like someone is moving a slider

#

Itโ€™s incredible

upper rain
#

whatever the cause, modern lighting and shadows smear, even when i disable TAA/switch to a different AA method. DLSS and to a lesser degree FSR 4 clear most of this up

Lux is light that falls on a surface and lumen is the light emitted in all directions or something

pliant berry

the distance that falls on surface at certain distances from source?

nocturne flicker

What?

upper rain
pliant berry
#

oh i think i see

#

not really because its stupid but ok

nocturne flicker

Basically it is the amount of light hitting a certain area of a certain object

It changes based on the angle the light hits the object, distance from the object and the intensity of the light source

The amount of times I've seen someone use it as a slur here is very high, as opposed to the number of times someone trying to use it (and failing due to ban) to describe themselves. Context sensitive bans requires manual intervention, which is a decent ask for unpaid volunteers to try and get near 100% filter rate

Blue honey
$30/ounce

nocturne flicker
# lone mango How did that change the color tho

The bees are attracted to man made sugars because they serve as a replacement for nectar and or a food source. Nectar is used to make honey and as such the pigments and dyes in the sugar or nectar source effects the honey's color

#

Normal nectar changes the color of honey depending on the flower it is gathered from too

#

There was also an incident in Brooklyn a little before that of bees getting into a maraschino cherry plant and making red honey due to the dyes

misty sparrow
#

Does it taste different at all though

#

and is it safe to eat

dense locust
#

Prob as safe as hfcs can be

#

told Reuters the only similarity between regular honey and their beesโ€™ M&M-tainted byproducts might be taste.

nocturne flicker
#

Well, sugar from M&Ms probably didn't have any significant impact on the taste, the honey's flavor is usually changed based on what minerals and chemicals are in the nectar and how they change the honey during the production process

#

The local flowers probably had more of an impact on the flavor than the M&Ms

#

The M&Ms just provided a strong pigment

genuinely I love how crisp and balanced good cheap headphones sound

#

my first entry was a pair of SR60s at probably 80 bucks, and now I'm here

pliant berry
#

yeah you can get very decent sound without breaking the bank

cedar compass
#

Sennheiser HD599SE is also alright . I got one for 80$ . but I usually using my beyerdynamic dt990 pro which is I bought for 100$ I think perfection

#

but those high ohm headphones need audio interface or amp . since I have good audio interface I don't using amp

pliant berry
#

I forget sometimes how much power the classic sennheiser hd6xx use

#

practically have my gain on double what I usually have with my everyday headphones

DT990 Pro 250ohm is bae

books are not immune to it either ofc but they are far less susceptible

it is harder to get a book published than to spew whatever you want on the Internet

#

books are just as susceptible to the pitfalls of mis/disinformation, but public libraries are good for curating books that aren't fringe conspiracy theory bs and such

places like reddit are the biggest places for โ€œmisinformationโ€ because most people on there dont have more than surface level knowledge

# sour spruce https://newegg.io/fba98eb any thoughts before i pull the trigger over labor day?

Four things:

  1. If you can afford it, get a different keyboard. That thing will have sweat stains within a month, not to mention the fake mechanical switches that it has. "But it's [insert why you want it here]..." Believe me, I used to own one. The mouse is a good pick though imo
  2. Somebody will yell at you about the RAM. What's an alternative? Honestly I wish I could give an alternative. I use G.Skill and it isn't bad, but definitely put more research into the RAM. Corsair is bottom-tier for memory
  3. Is there a specific reason why you want Intel? I mean imo the 14700K isn't a bad CPU, especially after all of the BIOS updates Intel finally through out there. But there isn't much of an upgrade path with that platform
  4. Is there a reason you need Nvidia? Like I get that you need a GPU probably for gaming, but is there another reason such as playing around with AI? If not, go with something like a 9070 XT or 9070 for cheaper

  1. keyboard/mouse is for my kid so he doesnt ruin my switches 2.ok ill do there is gskill for same price 3.not worried about upgrading anytime soon 4. no just gaming ill check out 9070

thanks!

Forgot to add that you can get more performance for the same price by going with AMD. Also, the 14700K might be fine if it's just for your kid. He probably won't need any upgrading within the next few years with that CPU

probably because of how much flow through there is

heat just gets dumped on the back of the motherboard and sits in between it and the back of the card which is where half of the vram is

# elfin mural intel got bailed out

They were always going to get the money. The difference is that the gov't turned something specifically and only allotted as grant money into a direct equity purchase. Intel gets the money directly with no strings attached to it unlike a grant, the US gov't gets 10% of the company in nonvoting shares

elfin mural

so the shares are just there to take some revenue

Theoretically it is probably illegal as it is a misappropriation of money, but nobody gonna do anything about that
