[worn wave]

Oh boy

Ue5 slop

Ultra performance for 60fps on a 3090 doesn't seem quite right though

https://youtu.be/pGCkriyhcoM?si=t19MGZ5vNAIqCt97

[fair onyx]

there is a singular setting that makes a big difference, but it makes the game look absolutely horrible if you turn it down. Global illumination

I guess I will just have to wait and see if they improve it, cause its unreasonable in its current state

[worn wave]

I think on top of poor performance your system might have an issue with the game. Cause in that video^ the 4070 is around 60fps at 1440p very high settings with dlssQ

I have heard some people are getting tons of crashes and some aren't so maybe certain hardware is having more issues than others

[fair onyx]

I haven't had a crash, so far

I might play a bit more, but its just unreasonable. I can't justify it, even as much as I like the game

[fair onyx]

ahhhh, cause it has frame gen. Thats the only reason lol

also sucks to see the 4070 hitting VRAM walls lol

Yeah, that performance video shows basically the same issues I was running into

I have one other thing to try and see

[fresh timber]

oh i meet the recomended

https://tenor.com/view/haii-hai-cat-cat-face-colon-three-gif-7065253899130675783

[chrome mirage]

is that why the reviews are so negative

I'm getting tired of games having performance issues. I didn't buy a 7900XTX to lock Nioh 3 to 60fps and still have it drop to 30fps.

[fair onyx]

Yeaahhh, unfortunately

[bitter ridge]

High on life 2 is out ?

[fair onyx]

yeah

came out today

yesterday? I don't remember lol

[elfin mural]

god, all tom's hardware articles are ai written slop now

actual humans are still behind em but the text is so obviously ai assisted

[fair onyx]

Their specs have been really bad on their site for many years now. They have unfortunately been unreliable for a while

[bitter ridge]

Hmmm going to buy it after going home then

[fair onyx]

they still have incorrect flop values for the 3090

[bitter ridge]

I would hope 9850x3d,5090 breezes through it

[fair onyx]

I wouldn't get my hopes up too high. it might find a way to disappoint you

I have been considering upgrading my 3090, but there really aren't any good options. I have the 4090, which isn't much better for what I do. And then the 5090, which is just a flat out horrible deal. I feel like PC building is in the biggest hell it's ever been in 😭

[bitter ridge]

https://youtu.be/x_41l3Wrs1c?si=GyD8evea0TuTABGU

Wow the game looks significantly better than high on life 1

[fair onyx]

it looks really good, yeah. if you have a 4080 or higher 😭

if not, it looks worse IMO

[bitter ridge]

More reflections bouncing all around and better Global Illumination

[fresh timber]

where is the game on

i wanna try

[fair onyx]

steam

$60

[fresh timber]

ew

[fair onyx]

yeah 😭

[bitter ridge]

That is definitely AAA pricing for a AA game at best

[fair onyx]

I mean, $60 isn't even AAA anymore, which is really annoying

[fresh timber]

im guessing the game pulled a starwars outlaws by giving you ALL the settings and graphics?

[fair onyx]

notttt really lol

[fresh timber]

oh

so theirs no insane pathtracing RTXC insanity?

[fair onyx]

most settings don't do much. The only one that does anything major is global illumination

Change it from high to medium and the game looks abysmal. Turn it back to high and kiss 60% of your performance goodbye

[fair onyx]

nope

As seen here

only difference is global illumination medium vs high

[fresh timber]

im downloading the game

@misty sparrow did u find a girlfriend?

[bitter ridge]

Pulling a star wars outlaws is a big compliment

Not many games out there which are that technically competent

[fresh timber]

to be fair, outlaws is REALLY prettty

modern hardware cannot handel it

[fair onyx]

Yeah, high on life 2 is not that lmao

[bitter ridge]

Lol

Dudeeeeee https://www.facebook.com/share/14UPoxf4YXm/?mibextid=wwXIfr

[pliant berry]

why is storage expensive now

[lone mango]

Because “ai” is demanding in every aspect

Processing power, memory, video memory especially, gpu compute, and storage to hold the model

And power demand becomes a byproduct of all of that

We are currently all paying for it with higher electricity prices right now

[dusk knot]

*the people behind AI

They're the root cause.

[pliant berry]

man I just need another ssd so I can put my drive in raid 1 and i don't lose all my docker and vm setups

[lone mango]

To run the full version of deepseek you need about 1.4 tb

Rounding up 60 gigs

1,342 gb

Oh shit that’s at fp16

Lmao

Ok so double it for full size fp32

[tranquil pebble]

These super massive models seem like an irresponsible use of money to me ngl

[lone mango]

Yeah you lose very little accuracy using quantization, I have heard

Like the full model at 8 bit is better than the lower parameter one at a higher bit

But I have a feeling these guys are actually running the full size models and making them bigger too

With how these storage prices are

[tranquil pebble]

yeah ofc

at the rate things are going I'll have to make a RAID of HDDs

[lone mango]

Well they went up too because of people flocking to that, like how people are making ddr3 go up by going there before other people do

[tranquil pebble]

yeah the whole situation is a mess

[lone mango]

At 8 it is 670 gb

Which isn’t so bad tbh

If I delete some stuff I could probably fit that

it’s got some ssd in it and the rest is hdd??

[sinful blade]

Yes

Apple used them for their macs

[nocturne flicker]

Basically just a HDD with a big cache

[sinful blade]

Pretty sure Apple called them fusion drives

They are EXPENSIVE

(For the larger ones)
You can get cheap ones on eBay for small storage

[worthy meteor]

people used to grab separate ssds and hdds for cheaper for the same purpose :p

[nocturne flicker]

Though SSHDs have smaller caches than a lot of hard drives do nowadays anyways

2tb Firecuda had like, 128mb iirc?

A lot of normal drives have 256mb now

[worn night]

Bruh that’s nothing

If they made a 128gb 1tb ssd hdd hybrid it would be great for budget pcs

If priced well

For now I’ll stick to 500gb ssd 1tb hdd

Next pc gonna have 4790k and 1660 super

[sinful blade]

https://ebay.us/m/XKf7NO
like this?

[nocturne flicker]

Wait, no maybe it was 8128mb

Ah, yes, I just checked a Firecuda spec sheet, it has 8gb, sorry

The buffer is 128mb though

[worthy meteor]

there was also the hybrid optane drives

like 32gb of 3dxpoint and 1tb of qlc

[nocturne flicker]

Or just Optane in general that you used software to make it cache

[worthy meteor]

yea that too, that's why they had like the 40gb drives

[median kelp]

Why does best buy take so long to ship to store vs to your house 😭

I have to pick my new monitor up so my husband doesn't kill me

[nocturne flicker]

will wait a bit longer so I can have a powerful arm hand

[velvet summit]

I assume they only do one truckload a day or every few days for shipping things between stores
Or even shipping things back to the warehouse before being moved to a truck that goes to that store

The warehouse I worked at, like HR documents and shit got sent to the warehouse and then shipped together to head office

Within the same city

Though best buy also might not get deliveries every day like the supermarket would

They might be getting weekly or bi-weekly shipments

Because they don't sell as much volume, as they have higher value products

For a supermarket, it was daily deliveries since you need fresh produce on shelves

Which also meant some days the trucks may be half empty

[acoustic palm]

dude

macos is pure bloatware

my grandpas mac mini was using like well over 10gb with nothing open

[median kelp]

Mac OS preloads most common apps until ram is needed

So if you often open safari for example it'll keep it pre loaded in memory unless it needs that memory for something else

There's almost no performance penalty for it doing that and makes people feel like their computer is faster

To apple how fast the computer feels has always been more important than actually performancr

That's why they were one of the first laptop companies to start shipping with SSDs even though they'd only have 128GB drives in them, they felt stupid fast even on the 2 core i3's

[velvet summit]

Macos isn't bloated at all honestly
Windows on the other hand...

[median kelp]

Mac OS uses everything at its disposal in a very clean manner imo

Any "bloat" is the computer using the whole computer for your benefit

Windows on the other hand runs stuff you don't need for no reason

Tell me why my windows laptop will go from lasting 10 hours one day to 2 hours the next even though I'm doing the same stuff

I go look at battery usage and it's windows services using 60% of my laptop battery sometimes

And sometimes it's under 5%

[velvet summit]

If there's anything that apple benefits most from, it's optimizing the os for the hardware

They can easily do this because they don't have to make an os that works decently well for any hardware configuration

Especially now that they're using their own cpus

[idle nexus]

my first inclination is to blame adobe lol

https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/s/rcP2Xsmc2b laptops dont have fuses built in or smth?

[nocturne flicker]

No

Why would they?

Fuses are to prevent excessive current from being driven through a circuit. That laptop had a battery short that resulted in the battery and the laptop burning up internally

A laptop charger'd be the device that would have a fuse

If they put one in

The US doesn't have as strict standards when it comes to using fuses

Europe tends to do better on that

Well, the UK does

Each socket has a dedicated fuse

[opaque sedge]

Well damn laptops kind of suck then

[nocturne flicker]

Well, the mobo may have small integrated fuses, but not the type of fuse you can replace or would prevent a battery shorting

[dense locust]

Lithium ion moment

[nocturne flicker]

Back in the day when they were lithium ion batteries in hard cases they'd tend to have fuses iirc

[dense locust]

Too expensive

[tranquil pebble]

Adobe, Nvidia, Microsoft, OpenAI... all acceptable companies to blame everything bad on

What windows laptop do you use

[median kelp]

Asus tuf A16

Ryzen 9 270 and RTX 5070

[fair onyx]

My performance seems in line with this guy's stuff, but any recording on the system at all leads to those horrific hang frames

I don't even have to be recording the game. Any recording at all and it just tanks everything

That guy might be using a capture card or something, I have no idea. All I know is that no matter what I do (moonlight, shadow play, windows gaming toolbar, OBS, discord, signal) if any program is recording on CPU or GPU, no matter the resolution, it gives me those same severe frame time issues. Even with my GPU at only 50-60% usage

[wraith fern]

people are so stupid

nobody is buying your 2013 macbook for 300 dollars

[opaque sedge]

Apparently people who record gameplay have a separate pc with a capture card doing the recording to not lose any performance

[wary fjord]

Rich people do that

Me just press record 😄

[random osprey]

thats if they just have a second pc laying around or if as tomie said, rich people

[opaque sedge]

I could have a second pc if i had 900 bucks

700 for a new cpu mobo and ram and 200 for storage….

[random osprey]

i used to do that when i upgraded from my 2070 super to my 3080 since that pc was just collecting dust and i couldnt sell it, so i just made it to a recording/streaming pc

[opaque sedge]

Alr have an extra psu case and gpu

[random osprey]

however, the audio issues that came with having a 2 pc setup isnt worth it imo

[opaque sedge]

I dont think i can sell my extra hardware idk why i get attached to things

Genuinely wanna find a way to put my 4070super to work

[random osprey]

could be wrong, but isnt there a way to have a second gpu in your pc and just use it for just that? couldve sworn i saw something like that before unless it was something else

[nocturne flicker]

It'd more likely than not result in bifurcation

[opaque sedge]

I think there some level of technicality with how many pcie lanes ur mobo has as well

And mine’s a budget mobo

I doubt it would benefit gaming much tho

[nocturne flicker]

Budget mobo doesn't impact amount of PCIe lanes, chipset and cpu does

Budget will just impact what slots you have and what the board can do software wise

[opaque sedge]

I have a b650 mobo and a 7800x3d

My pc also has two gen 4 nvme drives in it

[nocturne flicker]

All B650s and B650Es have 36 PCIe lanes from the chipset

As standard for 7000 series, the cpu provides 24 lanes

[opaque sedge]

The gpu consumes 16 lanes cuz x16 right?

[nocturne flicker]

It should, yes

NVME drives tend to do 4 each

[tacit geode]

hello

[opaque sedge]

Damn so i’m out of pcie lanes

[nocturne flicker]

Some will be reserved for SATA connections and back io

[nocturne flicker]

No you aren't

CPU does 24. The board does 36

You have 60 total lanes

[opaque sedge]

Ohh

[nocturne flicker]

You've probably used the CPU's lanes, but not the chip's lanes

[opaque sedge]

So nvmes use the cpu’s lanes?

Or?

[nocturne flicker]

The fastest or northern most one on the board tends to be the one directly linked to the cpu's lanes, extras tend to get routed through the chipset

[opaque sedge]

Hmm i think i have the nvmes in the top two and the gpu obv in the top one

[nocturne flicker]

You are lucky that we are in the age of having plenty of PCIe lanes

Chipsets used to give basically nothing

X370 got 4 PCIe 3.0 lanes from the CPU and turned it into 8 PCIe 2.0 lanes

Wait, I'm stupid

I tire

The entire thing gets 36

Maybe I shouldn't say things running on a couple hours sleep over many days

[tranquil pebble]

or just double/triple check things ig

My first desktop had 0 PCIe lanes

[nocturne flicker]

Tbh I'm barely here

[tranquil pebble]

AGP, PCI and ISA lol

[nocturne flicker]

You'll still have used the CPU's lanes entirely most likely. 16 for the GPU, 4 for the first slot and most likely 4 for the second if the GPP lanes haven't been redirected for somewhere else

[nocturne flicker]

Then your chipset will split the 4 reserved lanes into 12 more for other things

[opaque sedge]

I’m gonna need an equation or smth to process this

[nocturne flicker]

I've got one in my phone actually

[opaque sedge]

damn

[nocturne flicker]

The wonders of keeping random stuff

[opaque sedge]

Also what the hell why doesn’t b850 have pcie 5 for the x16 slot

Stingy amd

[nocturne flicker]

B850 is a rebranded B650 with a faster M.2 slot slapped on

X870 is B650E raised to a higher price tier

[tranquil pebble]

I hate the chipset naming nonsense ngl

[nocturne flicker]

And X870E is just X670E but they refresh the prices

And B840 is pain

[tranquil pebble]

B840 is named to trick people into buying a Axxx chipset

[nocturne flicker]

Because honestly I don't know if 2 more PCIe lanes is better if they are all PCIe 3.0 instead of 8 with 4 4.0s and 4 3.0s

[tranquil pebble]

All this stuff made me think B650 had PCIe 5 support when it doesn't ngl

[nocturne flicker]

Well it isn't mandatory

[opaque sedge]

Ik it prolly doesn’t matter but man i wish i went with a 7800x3d bundle that had a b650e chipset

[nocturne flicker]

I think the board makers get leeway

[sinful blade]

I just got the weirdest trade offer for my 9060

[tranquil pebble]

[nocturne flicker]

[fair onyx]

Yeah, that's what a lot of people do for YouTube videos. Either that or inline capture cards

But yeah, I'll probably try restarting my PC sometime soon. My PC is an absolute nightmare to reboot

[opaque sedge]

Oh how do inline capture cards work? Do they allow u to record and play with one system without performance loss?

[velvet summit]

Honestly I have no clue but apparently there are some sneaky workarounds that make you be able to run vr on Linux and stream it to a quest 2 and have it perform even better than winbloat

[fair onyx]

Any time my PC restarts, it goes through a random assortment of like 5 BSODs until it stabilizies and then it's fine for weeks

[opaque sedge]

Damn is ur pc possessed

[fair onyx]

It's a device that sits between your GPU and your monitor. You pass the video stream to the capture card, it records it as it goes through, and then it passes it to your monitor. It's like a mini dedicated PC just for that

[tranquil pebble]

Unfortunately when I looked into that it requires sideloading which is blocked on Quest now

[opaque sedge]

Oh shit is that what digital foundry uses to capture framerate data on consoles?

[velvet summit]

Maybe....
They've had it setup for a few years now so if meta changed some things then maybe they broke the ability to do it now

[tranquil pebble]

the Frame is the best hope I have for being able to do VR without some corporation sabotaging it

[fair onyx]

Very likely, yeah

[opaque sedge]

Damn computers have such a wide spectrum of uses and applications

[fair onyx]

Or you can do the two PC thing. That's more robust and reliable, but also requires... Two whole computers lol

[opaque sedge]

Sucks its gonna be a thing of the past for personal use soon

[velvet summit]

Capture cards are like a reverse GPU frfr

[tacit geode]

how has everyone been?

[tranquil pebble]

Orange Pi can serve as the recording system too

and doesn't cost much more than a capture card

[opaque sedge]

Wonder if i can use my steam deck as a recording system

[velvet summit]

You can get capture cards as low as like 5 bucks

[fair onyx]

In a round about way lol

If you haven’t tried already, try using wivrn as a streamer to bypass steamvr

[tranquil pebble]

the problem is getting a Quest 3 to connect with something on Linux

[pliant berry]

Since the quests cause so many issues with that, better to skip it altogether

[tranquil pebble]

yeah which is exactly why I can't use my Quest 3 on Linux

[pliant berry]

My current setup is wivrn streamed from cachyos to a quest 2 on a dedicated router

You also have to watch the ports since some distros have their firewalls turned on by default to block incoming connections

[tranquil pebble]

that requires being able to sideload

which I can't do

[tacit geode]

well have a good night yall

[tranquil pebble]

my Quest 3 blocks that

[pliant berry]

Really? I thought the wivrn app was just in the meta store

[tranquil pebble]

oh nevermind that one is

I'll have to try it out at some point

[pliant berry]

For linux it has by far worked the best for me. It’s just a bit of additional setup with the launch options and the fact that it doesn’t use the steamvr ui

I'm still going to want the Frame for the much higher tracking frequency

Don't they hire someone else to do the cutscenes and trailers? And didn't they fire the composer?

[nocturne flicker]

I wasn't interested when I still played shooters and I don't play shooters anymore, especially not MP shooters

GPUs shall be unobtainum. Your GPU shall be repossessed by the National Reclamation Army. Do not resist, resistance is futile

[heady plinth]

Are they going to smash it up intoa cube?

[nocturne flicker]

Would anyone know any good earbuds that could be hidden behind earplugs?

[velvet summit]

huh???

[onyx merlin]

appprently Marakpiler made a movie with Troy Baker

guy who voiced Joel in the games

its called Iron Lung

[lone mango]

Hello everybody my name is Markiplier

[velvet summit]

there's nothing that goes deep enough for you to put earplugs in front of it
most things would fit with ear defenders though (over ear hearing protection)

[cursive oasis]

Darn, work doesn't allow earbuds of any kind, so I'm just trying to get something that's small enough to be hidden

[velvet summit]

how strict are they about it

both places i've worked at technically don't allow headphones or earbuds at all

but they wouldnt care if you did

(factory and warehouse)

[cursive oasis]

They are pretty strict. It must be earplugs or earmuffs

[wary fjord]

U can 3d print a wireless earbuds that looks like hearing aids 100% working

[velvet summit]

oh well

[velvet summit]

you could try bone conduction headphones

[cursive oasis]

What's that

[velvet summit]

you can listen to music but also have earplugs in it

though they arent discreet

[wary fjord]

Neuro link can stream music direct to your brain

[worn night]

bro finally spoke

[velvet summit]

basically headphones that vibrate the part of your skull near your ears so you can hear sounds, but it doesnt go in or on your ear

[worn night]

do not get neural link

[cursive oasis]

That sounds like something from metal gear solid

[wary fjord]

Yeah real life stuff caught me off guard it is what it is

https://tenor.com/view/banbert-tired-work-work-work-gif-20963547

[worn night]

sorry to hear

[velvet summit]

you wear them like this

it's not hidden but your ears stay open

[cursive oasis]

I might actually ask about that holy crap

[wary fjord]

Then the hearing aids disguise as earbuds is your best solution.. no one can rip that out of your ear without feeling guilty

[worn night]

the s word is fine lol

[wary fjord]

I don't know the treble on that one

But 100% sure good bass(low)

Since direct to the bone

[cursive oasis]

Oh, I remember getting called out for cursing

[worn night]

if automod dont flag it, its fine

[velvet summit]

if they only have this as their option then it's their best option

[worn night]

no f bombs no slurs

[velvet summit]

being able to say "shit" is a recent addition

though it's the only word that's allowed

f word b word c word etc. still not allowed

[wary fjord]

Hmmm 🤔 hard to make that allowed

[velvet summit]

probably won't since they are either used as only insults or have sexual connotations

or both

[wary fjord]

yeah.. and its kinda bananas to moderate that.. we have to prove the context used by that word is not harmful etc blah blah.. and council has to agree too much work..

[worn night]

what is this gpu???

its got a 16 series era of cheap msi coolers but it says rtx

the pcb itself is too small to even be a 1650

am i missing something

[velvet summit]

could be a 3050

[velvet summit]

might be the MSI Gaming RTX 3050 Ventus 2X https://www.amazon.ca/MSI-RTX-3050-2X-6G/dp/B0CTK1SFVD?th=1

[worn night]

yeah it is lol i found it

Anyone here like Dragon Ball ?

One of my favorite moments of whole series was when Bardock went up to fight Freiza in epic final stand even thought he knew it was a lost cause.... (Talking original Bardock not that Retcon DBS version)
