Boring board game

#

Guys i have a question

#

I was doing some final testing on my 4070super and just noticed it developed a coil while

#

Do u think coil whine may be a valid reason to use the warranty

heavy dew
#

Should I bid on an Xbox 360 dev kit

unreal trail
#

do you develop game

heavy dew
#

Does that qualify

sinful blade
#

I’ll give you my gpu, just give me yours

Fsr4 is great

#

I can’t really put my gpu to use cuz I don’t play newer games

Yup this shit’s coil whining lol, even turned off my case fans to make sure

#

Its weird cuz i never heard this sound in the past year of using this thing

opaque sedge
dusk knot
#

I remember all my cards having it

opaque sedge
#

Bad enough to be concerned abt it because when i got the card i made sure it had no coil whine or did any funny business

acoustic palm
#

RMA, then sell a brand new in box 4070s

Im gonna take it to microcenter have their warranty under it

Can someone help me. My son knocked my pc over and now when it boots up there’s no video. The cpu light stays on and I can only power it off by flipping the switch on my psu or unplugging it

Hello @shut shale! It appears that you're asking for help. Please ask again in the appropriate category so you can get faster help from people specializing in that field. Your question may not be answered here.

Try reseating the gpu

shut shale
#

Did that when I took the cmos battery out

#

I’ve reseated everything and still nothing

dense locust
#

Am4 or am5

shut shale
#

dense locust
#

If something broke it can be the cpu motherboard or ram

#

But I don’t see how it would break from just falling over

shut shale
#

I checked the cpu and no pins are bent thankfully

dense locust
#

Try moving the gpu to the lower pcie slot (if you have one)

#

BocchiPlushStare
It always hard to diagnose issues when you don’t have extra parts

shut shale
#

Yeah. I been needing to upgrade but I was trying to atleast make it to income tax time

dense locust
#

You can also try using 1 ram stick if you have 2 or moving the ram to a different slot

Time to buy a broken 5090 and then a 5090 with no core and vram

Now I just gotta spend a few years learning to reball a core

whats the point of making these

If I let my 9070 draw 265 watts, I get like 10% over stock

dense locust
#

if i let my 5080 draw 1000w it dies

nocturne flicker
#

If I force my 6950xt to draw 8000w my PC will blow up

dense locust
#

funny how the 5090 actually got smaller

lone mango
#

I guess that is how op double flow through is

dense locust
#

board design is stupid

#

but other than that its a well built card

lone mango
#

But that is the tradeoff you have to make for this design

worn wave
#

Yeah can't have the double blow through fans without a wacky pcb

dense locust

i would not trust that card horizontally

# worthy meteor less go boom

yeah not as easy to go boom but some have trouble handling certain unstable power conditions which can be a problem. typically the worst that can happen is it fails and systems connected turn off

Just play as female Ryder

i don't typically play as female characters when given the option but sure

what if i just started with andromeda first because you'd first experience whatever it is and maybe get some enjoyment, then play the trilogy

so i wouldn't keep comparing them both

It just has a mediocre story full of clichés and generic tropes.

so i can't complain much

misty sparrow
#

apparently for their OG spec requirements they overcompensated the actual demands to run the game

#

i found that funny

2 was undercooked compared to 3 and 3 only truly shined in multiplayer

Andromeda is almost completely disconnected from the main trilogy besides some prologue plot points and understanding the species and factions that are relevant in both the trilogy and Andromeda

dusk knot
#

Is anyone here interested in marathon?

misty sparrow
#

i saw that trailer which was really good

#

but nothing much other than that

nocturne flicker
#

The problem with starting with Andromeda is that you'll be jumping from rather polished combat to Mass Effect 1 Oh_No

misty sparrow
#

I played a little of Mass Effect 1

nocturne flicker
#

Not to diss ME1 too much, I rather enjoy the weapon system and the equipment variety, but it is a bit clunky compared to any of the other games even with mods and LE to round out the edges

lone mango
#

The game is old let it rest

nocturne flicker
#

Hey man, it still has a better main storyline than ME2 derpyBlob

#

Doesn't start with magical resurrection machine costing insane amounts of money from a privately funded terrorist organization derpyBlob

misty sparrow
#

you know i haven't played any of them right

#

is that a big spoiler

nocturne flicker
#

No. It ties to an event that happens within the first 5 minutes of the second game

#

Well, more like 10 minutes after cutscenes and certain camera angle restoration mods kekw

Quick question, I got a defective item and now the item is out of stock. Will submitting the replacement order even go through? Or would they just refund me sale also ended 🙁 so no idea where I'd get the same item

misty sparrow
#

or Andromeda

nocturne flicker
#

ME1 is quicker to finish and has more interesting characters. Andromeda is longer, has better gameplay but is largely disconnected from the trilogy except for a few specific call backs and the story is a bit meh

#

If you are doing 100% runs Andromeda has a lot more filler than any of the other games

#

You'll probably enjoy Andromeda more if you play it as a standalone though

misty sparrow
#

so start with that first?

nocturne flicker
#

If you want. It won't hurt you much

#

Andromeda was made in a way that the events of the trilogy had to have as little impact on the game as possible

#

The most you get is cameos of certain names from the trilogy or of specific factions. You'll get a little of some of the backstory of the various species but mostly it is just a scifi game that just so happens to be Mass Effect

#

I'd not play Andromeda at all tbh. The writing was terrible. 1 was okay, 2 was one of the best games of all time, 3 was mostly good.

misty sparrow
#

well, i bought it

heady plinth
#

If you see a character do something and wonder, "Why did they do that?" Andromeda is an absolute slog to get through.

#

Combat mechanics take a big step up in 3.

nocturne flicker
#

When you learn to ignore it because the answer is because the writers didn't know what they were doing, Andromeda gets easy to play

#

I've put 90 or so hours into it, did everything worth doing and moved on

heady plinth
#

I think it's the only mainline bioware game I haven't 100%ed.

nocturne flicker
#

I did like, 98 or so percent

#

Iirc one of my quests bugged and since it is abandonware nothing could be done

misty sparrow
nocturne flicker
#

Actually no, I think I did 100% it

heady plinth
#

Veilguard sucks and all your companions have 1 personality but I might actually play it again some day. Andromeda was really bad. There are Junior High schoolers writing better fanfics than Andromeda.

nocturne flicker
#

Actually thankful that Origin exists and isn't as incompetent as some other game platforms and has cloud saves, because there was no way I'd still have my save from 2018 on my system derpyBlob

okay quick question

CES is short for consumer electornics showcase

so why is it focusing on ai products

that's actually cool for lower end pcs

#

i have a 4050 in my laptop, so that's good to hear that i can cope with more upscaling lmao

opaque sedge
#

Reflex 2 still isnt out it seems

ashen swan
#

idc tbh

elfin mural
#

especially seeing as nvidia is re-releasing the 3060

#

or is planning to

ashen swan
#

i mean

#

i'd try

opaque sedge
#

What are they even gonna price it at?

elfin mural
#

i used to be against upscaling but since dlss 4, it was resonably decent

opaque sedge
#

The 9060xt is such a bargain rn

dense locust
#

Watch the video

ashen swan
elfin mural
#

10gb 3060 doesn't exist

ashen swan
elfin mural
#

unless nvidia is forging a new variant

dense locust
#

11gb 5060 ti super

elfin mural
#

dlss 4 was the first time i could confidently say that upscaling is at least okay to use at 1080p

#

but now this? i'm curious

dense locust
#

I can’t wait for companies to say dlss is required

#

For every game

elfin mural
#

sadly

#

that'll be the case

dense locust
#

“Hollow knight silksong 2 need dlss to play 60fps at 1080p”

opaque sedge
#

Look at nioh 3 system reqs

elfin mural
#

but imma crash out when 2d games require dlss

ashen swan
#

apperentaly FSR4 or redstone ? apperntly is coming to 200 games

elfin mural
#

rn tho? with upscaling being this good?

#

i don't mind it

#

but frame gen.. i won't go over 2x

#

i don't like the extra latency above 2x

ashen swan
#

i'm prob gonna buy a used 5080 and try DLSS 4.5

#

but it's not worth it usally

#

Nvidia GPUS are like 200+MSRP

#

even the cheapest models are 140 over msrp

#

and that's usally only one model

#

i'm undervolting that thing and it's still going like

I think Intel cooked with panther lake this gen

assuming good prices

#

eh

#

Amd needs to step up their game with radeon ngl

where the hell is the 9950x3d2, amd derpyBlob

It’s funny how 9950x3d2 had more rumors but 9850 x3d is the one that was revealed

proud jackal
dense locust
#

It’s a stupid cpu

#

It better not be more expensive

elfin mural

it will be

#

the numbers say it all

proud jackal

of course it will be

dense locust

6%
2%
3%

proud jackal

"we're wasting money on these non ai consumers, might as well overcharge them"

elfin mural
#

bigger number = bigger price

dense locust
#

9950x3d2 will be $100 more

dense locust
#

Remember when an extra 3d vcache was “too expensive”

So what's the difference between ram and vram

remote geode
#

but i assume you mean ddr vs gddr

#

ddr is what's used in your motherboard (but sometimes in low-end display adaptors too)

#

and gddr is usually found on gpus (and sometimes socs)

#

there's a great reddit post that'll explain your question better than i could ever do

sharp charm
#

I'm guessing both are affected by the ram shortage

remote geode
#

pretty much

#

you need insane amounts of both for an ai datacentre

#

oh, and there's hbm as well

sharp charm
#

Maybe the ai data centers just want to play gta6 better than everyone else

remote geode
#

which is what nvidia uses for their really high performance cards for datacentres

#

You see perry the platypus I'll just buy out all the ram and make my pc better in comparison, and then I'll become ruler of the tri-state area
