think 9800x3d is capable of doing around 58ns? or 55ns with "gaming mode" enabled or whatever (don't actually use this all it does is cheat in aida while lowering your real performance)

if you're just using xmp/expo high 70s or even 80s probably normal

iirc ram oc dropped my laptop from like... 116ns to 60ns

also if you're running 6400 xmp/expo that's 1:2 mode

my kit is also 6400c30, I daily 6000c28 on it

[pseudo raven]

oh ok that's cool then

yeah man my most played game is still league so

[grand kernel]

sorry for your loss.

[pseudo raven]

it'll run at a crappy 80 fps no matter what I play it on

😎

[pseudo raven]

real

[sinful blade]

I’m going under for surgery for the first time in like 15 years with anesthesia, and I am scared out of my mind

On the second

[grand kernel]

idk with a 9800x3d you can probably hit league's engine limit with 8gb ddr5 running at 4800c40 jedec

[pseudo raven]

good luck

[pseudo raven]

yeah man my game just randomly halves it's fps every once in a patch

surely league 2 will not have any optimization issues

[grand kernel]

interesting

you got something else going on besides hardware I can tell you that much

[velvet summit]

The liability release forms before surgery is like always scarier than the actual procedure

💀

[grand kernel]

I got 120 fps in league with ryzen 5 1500x, 8gb single channel ddr4 3000c16 xmp, and a dell r5 240 with 1gb gddr3

[pseudo raven]

yeah might be my drivers

also every once in a while when I start a game

my pc makes this beep kind of noise

something is recording

and I can't find where to turn it off in adrenalin

relive probably

Ahhh

Thats most likely it

[worn night]

the FIRST FRAME is the epstein files

oh wait

[dusk knot]

soo.....

[ashen swan]

Yeah

[unborn wind]

@$nEaKy: Ryzen 5 9600X RTX 5070 32gb Ram how much will I struggle playing games like these in 4k? Cyberpunk 2077 BeamNG, Forza Horizon 4/5 GTA V, Far Cry 5, Resident Evil 1,2,3

[worn night]

need 5080 🔥

[sand hill]

the case along with ryen and powe supply is the same and want to do this and it cost 2,170.21 and of course it's expensive isn't it?

[unborn wind]

It should be able too do it

[sinful blade]

5070 is just not it lmao

If you want 4k, you want a 16/20/24 gb gpu

[pliant berry]

nah need 5090

[unborn wind]

My 6800 could play those games in 4k

[worn night]

FOMO fear of missing out

[pliant berry]

maybe 6090

[unborn wind]

Nah 5070 will be fine

[worn night]

7090 ti super

[unborn wind]

If my 6800 could do it fine

Yes lol

[worn night]

then why ask

[unborn wind]

idk

[mint sundial]

Hopefully I’ll be able to get a 5080 this summer

[unborn wind]

If my 6800 can do it

[sinful blade]

Get me one too

[pliant berry]

for real though it really depends on your target framerates and desired detail level

[unborn wind]

My 5070 can

[sand hill]

and of course it's still a no despite i change the parts and yet it might be bad, expensive or both....... thanks newegg!

[unborn wind]

also DLSS will help

[sand hill]

(yes it's sarcasm)

[worn night]

vram

[unborn wind]

It will be fine with dlss

[pliant berry]

personally, I still don't consider even a 5080 capable enough for 4k but im crazy

[unborn wind]

Just not maxed out

Mate it’s a highly suggested card for 1440p

[sinful blade]

Yeah
Not 4k

[unborn wind]

can do 4k fine

[mint sundial]

I’m using my sons extra gpu atm a 4060 dose well on iracing gets 100+ in 4K

[unborn wind]

just not maxed out duh

Also in Forza 4

It will be a dream

That’s light game

[worn night]

then why ask for our opinion bruh

[unborn wind]

yeah sure

idk

Eh

I didn’t pay for it

[sand hill]

thanks for the help there

[unborn wind]

If I got the choice

I would’ve gone 9070xt

It’s not like I chose it specifically

yeah sure

U don’t know what ur talking abt

Many other ppl say it’s fine

At right settings

And with DLSS

no

Ok

I did

I mean most games I mentioned

Are low requirements

[pliant berry]

well dlss is the thing. you can alleviate the pressure a ton with dlss but some people (myself included) don't use dlss and probably won't use dlss for a long time

[ashen swan]

Fomofoundry.ai

[unborn wind]

I’m gonna use

[mint sundial]

Is a 3080ti a decent card?

[ashen swan]

Yes

Very much so

[unborn wind]

OH FORZA 4 IS GRAPHICALLY INTENSIVE

Bruh it ran mint on my old pc r5 7600 RX 6800 100+ fps 4k

[mint sundial]

Evga has a waterblock card it’s decently priced I was looking at that

Oh did I make level 3 color is by my name

[pliant berry]

good

[mint sundial]

Thanks 🙏

Ill have to look them up

That’s some pretty cool pc they do

I’ve been a plumber for 20 years so I love copper and that’s why I went that direction. I’m hoping when the pc is done it will look like an oil cooler for a motor

[dense locust]

jp you not seeing what I’m not seeing

[dusk knot]

i see nothing wrong here

[grand kernel]

with my 6400 profile

no idea why aida is reading it as 6377 lol

[worn night]

perhaps but may I inquire did that guy get muted for spam lol

[dense locust]

He has ram get em

[worn night]

he was messaging quite fast

[dusk knot]

hm

[grand kernel]

now watch me destroy this ram with 5 volts

this 1.63v is too tame

lol wait my pbo disabled itself on the 6400 profile

interesting

[worn night]

alrr

[grand kernel]

oops I forgot to resync tPHYRDL too

tiny bit better but not much

at least it actually says 6400 now

[worn night]

https://klipy.com/gifs/shockwave-logical

[grand kernel]

this profile is stable I just prefer not to daily vsoc this high

already pushing my luck being on an asrock board apparently lol

I'm gpu bottlenecked anyway no point pushing the last bit of performance out of the cpu

vsoc llc isn't topped out so the 1.295v nominal is 1.275v under load (at least according to svi3 tfn) but still

no cpu boom for me plz

I bought this cpu off of r/hws warranty might be a headache if I ever need it

[dusk knot]

yes

[worn night]

yes

[grand kernel]

yes

cpu boom

[queen briar]

JP, you dont have a working pc do you

[dusk knot]

Ofc I do

It’s 100 percent functional

Build it myself as well as 3 others

[misty sparrow]

I really need to set up a local LLM on my PC that can do basic chatbot things and read attachments

[dusk knot]

I don’t play around with CPU/RAM timing or tuning like sips here. Thats his passion. Stock or some PBO is all I need

[rancid juniper]

CPU tuning is somewhat fine, ram makes you go mad

[dusk knot]

I’m not brave enough for that

Also real world performance is going to be marginal

[grand kernel]

this specific scene is absolutely destroying my poor 9070xt 💀

all that cpu/ram tuning to be gpu bottlenecked at 32 fps

[dusk knot]

L

[rancid juniper]

🗿

[grand kernel]

at least it doesn't stutter

[rancid juniper]

low ah framerate at 335w

[grand kernel]

this is with frame gen lol

[rancid juniper]

peak efficiency

[grand kernel]

so it's 38 fps

[rancid juniper]

even worse

[bitter ridge]

Most custom engine games don't stutter

[rancid juniper]

😩

[grand kernel]

at 1440p

with fsr quality

[lone mango]

2800 mhz damn that shit is hitting the gpu hard

[bitter ridge]

Hopefully cdpr pulls a rabbit out of their hats for Witcher 4

[lone mango]

furmark type beat fr

[grand kernel]

yeah -50 mV undervolt as well

[lone mango]

i am not expecting much

at all

[grand kernel]

i mean honestly this is playable...

my stealth pistol build doesn't really rely on low input lag

[lone mango]

if it is ultra stable yeah

[grand kernel]

yeah it's a flat line

just a flat line at a very low bar lol

[lone mango]

nice

[rancid juniper]

have you tried AV1 recording on AMD gpus?

can't lie it looks/feels choppy to me

[lone mango]

yeah those clips i send in gaming are av1

[rancid juniper]

maybe its just obs goofing around

[lone mango]

possibly

what do you have on there

[rancid juniper]

im torn whether i should use quicksync h.264 or use AMD HW HEVC (h.265) instead of AMD HW AV1

[grand kernel]

i've been using HEVC i remember AV1 not working on discord

[grand kernel]

maybe they recently updated?

[rancid juniper]

av1 works on discord now

[lone mango]

yeah av1 been supported for a bit

[grand kernel]

ooh nice

switching to AV1 now then

[rancid juniper]

i export videos with av1

[grand kernel]

i personally got better results with AV1 than anything else

[lone mango]

yeah i see nothing wrong

maybe it is the media you are recording to

[rancid juniper]

mkv?

[dusk knot]

Hm

[lone mango]

i had a really slow drive that would start micro stuttering every so often because it could not keep up with the random writes

[lone mango]

sorry i meant media as in drive

[rancid juniper]

wild because its writing to a gen 4 nvme ssd

[lone mango]

is it full

[rancid juniper]

no

[lone mango]

ok so its not that either

[bitter ridge]

Best practice usually is to have a entire streaming pc

[rancid juniper]

eh

[lone mango]

have you tried recording with adrenaline

because adrenalin recording is pretty good

[rancid juniper]

i have, and it felt smoother with av1

[lone mango]

yeah i would stick with that then

[rancid juniper]

sucks because OBS is robust with features

[lone mango]

i only use obs for my capture card

[rancid juniper]

i see

[lone mango]

i record natively on the computer for pc stuff

[grand kernel]

wow 26 fps here

[lone mango]

like replays (clips) and whatnot

[lone mango]

my man has infinite storage

[rancid juniper]

are you using pathtracing?

these are crazy low

[grand kernel]

yeah

[rancid juniper]

videos gets saved to the local disk

[lone mango]

true b frames do reduce the size a good bit but somehow adrenalin recording is really efficient even without them

[rancid juniper]

RT ultra/psycho is enough

[grand kernel]

idk what's up with this area, most of the game runs at 40-60 fps with path tracing

[grand kernel]

see that's what i thought

but oh man

[lone mango]

my main issue with adrenalin recording is static bitrate

[grand kernel]

when you do a side by side

[bitter ridge]

The dlc is next gen only

[rancid juniper]

setting b-frames to 0/1 makes the recording much sharper and closer to lossless

[grand kernel]

the difference is massive

[rancid juniper]

light bleed goes crazy

[lone mango]

its actually kinda crazy i tried 5 and it was not overloading

[grand kernel]

even through discord image compression

[lone mango]

the encoder is powerful

[rancid juniper]

wait, the more b-frames the better or less?

[grand kernel]

path tracing actually looks so much better

[bitter ridge]

Discord is the best place to share gameplay pictures

x is soo much worse

[lone mango]

more is more demanding but lowers the size further yes

[rancid juniper]

oh

[lone mango]

but even on 5 i had no overloading

which is kinda nuts honestly

[rancid juniper]

gpu is just that strong

[lone mango]

this vcn iteration is strong

even the 9060 xt is like this too

[rancid juniper]

Drop fsr to performance

[lone mango]

in fact i tested 5 when i was on the 9060 xt

[rancid juniper]

and it didn't look blurry?

🤔

[lone mango]

yeah

[grand kernel]

nah 40-60 is genuinely enough fps

[lone mango]

is it supposed to or nah

cuz i thought that more b frames means that it is taking vectors from more frames

[bitter ridge]

Wouldn't be surprised if it is actually that high

[lone mango]

and using that data to make the file size smaller

[rancid juniper]

bro what?

[grand kernel]

when the gameplay looks like this you don't need high fps lol

40-60 before frame gen

[rancid juniper]

felt like it should've been blurrier but i guess the card can still output fine quality

[rancid juniper]

when the sandy activates:

[grand kernel]

40-60 fps after frame gen would definitely not be playable

[lone mango]

it looked great for me

try it and see

[grand kernel]

we under 2800mhz now

[rancid juniper]

recorded 2 minutes of 1440p 60fps gameplay with 5 b-frames

[lone mango]

on linux 4 b frames is the max but va-api is not able to properly take in the context in b frames so it freaks out and has micro jitters from not supporting it properly
#gaming message
but if you get past the micro jitters it looks very very clear

[rancid juniper]

footage doesn't look too bad

[lone mango]

given the bit rate

[rancid juniper]

i see

[grand kernel]

damn

my 9070xt crashes in photo mode

[rancid juniper]

unstable

smh

[grand kernel]

i think it's running out of vram LOL

it's not a driver crash just a game crash

[lone mango]

in fact all those clips up until that skyline tried killing me had b frames

[rancid juniper]

Footage does look clear

[grand kernel]

dude

[dusk knot]

PT ay

[rancid juniper]

^^^ bro is gushing over pt

[grand kernel]

photo mode increases the ray bounces from 2 to 6

[dusk knot]

its the best

[rancid juniper]

Have any of you tried that new shader comp thing from Nvidia?

[rancid juniper]

The chair

[rancid juniper]

To play at 30fps

[dusk knot]

on AMD

[lone mango]

crazy that a bloom effect is halving the frame rate

[grand kernel]

i'm genuinely enjoying this more at 40 fps than 100 fps rt psycho lol

[rancid juniper]

PT still runs mid on Nvidia. Gotta wait till the rtx 8060 do it right

[lone mango]

rtx 8086

[grand kernel]

the 8gb or 16gb model?

[lone mango]

9

[rancid juniper]

4gb

[dusk knot]

i get like....70fps with PT on with just DLSS. thats a win to me

[lone mango]

ah shit dude i forgot about that ai memory compression

tru....

[rancid juniper]

How about, PT without upscaling

😳

[dusk knot]

[rancid juniper]

Gottem

[grand kernel]

how about PT with supersampling

render the game at 16K

[rancid juniper]

That requires 8 rtx 6090s

💰

[grand kernel]

the 4gb model?

[rancid juniper]

4.5gb this time

[grand kernel]

or the 64gb RTX 6090AI Ti SUPER AI

[rancid juniper]

64gb from system memory*

[dusk knot]

30 fps

[rancid juniper]

Dunno man, sounds like an L there

[dusk knot]

33

[rancid juniper]

Expedition 33 frames

[dusk knot]

just turn DLSS ON. smh

[rancid juniper]

Keep it off and let the real image speak for itself

[dusk knot]

36 fps

im going to vomit

[rancid juniper]

😤

[rancid juniper]

With 6x multi-hallicinations that can be 180fps or something idk

[lone mango]

i like the color grading but the game is pretty damn blurry

[rancid juniper]

Actually don't do that

[rancid juniper]

Peak UE5 slop

[dusk knot]

native doesnt look or feel any better than with DLSS.

btw...6x is out right?

[rancid juniper]

Yea, just need to download the latest Nvidia app

[lone mango]

why do they think 6x(7) will save gaming when nobody used 4x

[dusk knot]

ugh...idk

[rancid juniper]

I'm gonna shove 846392924 jolly ranchers down your throat

[dusk knot]

does cyberpunk support it?

[rancid juniper]

Yes

[lone mango]

at least it isnt as demanding but it does fit that dreamlike fantasy vibe

just dont get too close to the screen

[rancid juniper]

It's crazy how noisy/grainy the game can get

Without upscaling it looks like a mess

There are some good looking areas tho

[lone mango]

it looks like anti aliasing is a lost art

[rancid juniper]

Done on purpose tbh

[grand kernel]

oh you're near the end of the base game

go go go

[rancid juniper]

To force people to rely on upscalers

(it worked)

[lone mango]

you know

a couple days ago we dropping some stuff off at goodwill and i was in the car looking at the trees

shit was shimmering like crazy

People with good eyesight probably seeing the world at msaa 8x or SSAA 4x

[pseudo raven]

yeah ok i was getting around 72-76

[grand kernel]

this is with my best profile

[pseudo raven]

yeah I had the impression I was supposed to be getting low 60s on a daily for some reason

but it's cool then

[grand kernel]

that would be true for some older platforms

like zen 2 you'd expect a mild tune to put you in the mid 50s

coffee lake pretty easy to hit sub 40

[rancid juniper]

Isn't ddr5 supposed to be hitting over 100000MB/s?

[grand kernel]

well yes

70308 MB/s is over 10000 MB/s

[rancid juniper]

Bruh

Whoops typo

[grand kernel]

but yeah the ddr5 bandwidth is severely limited by FCLK and being a single CCD chip

you'd see way higher numbers on like, arrow lake

[pseudo raven]

yeah I just got 72ns while having a bunch of random crap open

I'm ok

[rancid juniper]

Betalake

[rancid juniper]

Did you do a run without anything else running in the background

[pseudo raven]

I'm a bit busy at the moment so I don't want to close everything else

[rancid juniper]

Alr

[pseudo raven]

But it'd be a little lower I guess

[grand kernel]

lol i could probably set my cpu to 3ghz and ram to single channel ddr5-2400 c20 and see the same performance i'm getting now in cyberpunk

the gpu bottleneck is too strong

[pseudo raven]

Yeah I'm not switching cpus for at least 5 years

maybe more

[rancid juniper]

Spider-Man 2 managed to bottleneck my 13600k when RT is enabled

Even with a heavy oc it still didn't do much

[pseudo raven]

Yeah my 5600x was running into issues by the time I got rid of it

[grand kernel]

oh you think consumer hardware will still exist in 5 years

[rancid juniper]

Heh

Ya like subscriptions?

[pseudo raven]

5 years? Definitely

15-20 who knows

[grand kernel]

DLSS 8 generates your pc for you on the cloud for only $500/month for the 8gb ram/4gb vram plan

[pseudo raven]

I can't imagine convincing someone like my parents to give up their laptops for a subscription

[rancid juniper]

Waiting on ddr6 so that people go nuts on ddr5 and then spend on a ddr4 kit

• not me

[pseudo raven]

don't think I'll ever get as lucky as when I bought ddr5

[grand kernel]

yup

i built brand new pc right before all the prices exploded

[rancid juniper]

I got mad when I bought a ddr5 sodimm kit too early and there was a lower CL version for the same price literally a week later

🗿

SSD prices are affected so bad as well

[grand kernel]

well you'll still be able to buy a lovely laptop with 1 core and 512mb ram that runs windows 12 so you can log into your cloud computer

[pseudo raven]

trident z 6400cl30 for $80

[rancid juniper]

Where?

😭

[pseudo raven]

hardwareswap

[grand kernel]

windows 12, the first OS to be fully coded by AI

[pseudo raven]

it was bnib too

[lone mango]

"ai"

[misty sparrow]

i thought 32gb ram for $65 in september was too high

[lone mango]

please put quotes

[pseudo raven]

And then I confirmed the purchase like 4 months later when prices were like 3x already

[lone mango]

because this is not "ai"

[pseudo raven]

lmao

[lone mango]

the "intellegence" these "ai" models have did not come from them

[grand kernel]

I got a BNIB 9800x3d + BNIB 32gb hynix a-die + lightly used 2tb WD SN850X bundle from r/hws for $430

[rancid juniper]

Can't spell scraping without ai

[pseudo raven]

Lmao

[lone mango]

it came from scraped human work

[lone mango]

[grand kernel]

the ram is also trident z but doesn't matter I can't see it under my ram fan anyway

[pseudo raven]

wait also literally did you kidnap their family wtf

that's like almost a good price for the CPU alone

[grand kernel]

lol

I just got lucky

[rancid juniper]

I'm not jealous

Not at all

[pseudo raven]

turned off all the rgb on mine tbh

my pc is a dark box of doom

[rancid juniper]

Black box

[pseudo raven]

I got a microcenter warranty on my 9070xt

[grand kernel]

i turned off the rgb on my ram

[pseudo raven]

apparently you can just say the gpu is "running bad" and they give you credit for a new one?

not why I bought the warranty but

that sounds too nice

[rancid juniper]

Finally, you can get the better binned models lol

[pseudo raven]

Forget better bins lol

I can just get a better gpu straight up

but prices haven't really come down

[lone mango]

we need more of this

[rancid juniper]

Real

[dusk knot]

is DDR5 finally going down?

[pseudo raven]

I'd love to swap my 9070xt in for a 5070ti in a few months

But it's not happening xd

[dusk knot]

or just 5080

[dusk knot]

really now???

well damn. i feel like I barely started

im still a brokie in game

[elfin mural]

at least you have a few other paths to take in the story to replay again

[queen briar]

no i was asking to see if youre able to game

[sand hill]

i feel like people are gonna jduge me but i'm gonna show it again and this time all the price are low

[dusk knot]

Yes. I can game

[queen briar]

if i buy you a game, will you paly it with me

[sand hill]

(the case i have along with power supply and 4tb and sata are still the same) are this parts good? or no? (it's coust 2,170.21) i doubt it's good

[dusk knot]

What game ?

[queen briar]

Cant narrow it down

project zomboid for starters/

[dusk knot]

[dusk knot]

Isn’t that game super realistic?

And difficult?

[queen briar]

depends how you play it

thats like saying minecraft is super difficult and realistic

i mean it does have a stat system for pborken bones or health but that can be changed via mods

[dusk knot]

Hmmm

I’m looking at gameplay

[queen briar]

ive played alone with AI mods where i get survivrso

i had a camp of 25

but they only get you so far

me and my friend played it, i ran the server

but we couldnt get any traction

[grand kernel]

don't worry

the end of the main story is nowhere near the end of the game

💀

[dusk knot]

Wow. The game is soo much more complex than any survival I’ve ever played

[dusk knot]

Got it

[queen briar]

it is but it isnt. like you can cut yourself on glass and you need to disinfect bandes or clothes,. zombie bodies can make you sick or infect you

but its pretty fun if you get a group going

[dusk knot]

Holy attention to details

[queen briar]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYvzr0OTQ1U this guy makes amazing videos and this is what made me want to play so badly

this is 100% solo too.

you cant get AI in MP. even with mods

there is away to do it with steam family share but it takes way too long to get up and running

[dusk knot]

3 hours

[queen briar]

im on the PZ discord but its just so... everyone has like 50+ mods or its vanilla.

and vanilla is really hard, but i usually run like 12 mods

and its simple QOL, like inventory management or icons having discriptions, and a few extra cars or decals

[dusk knot]

Hm

[queen briar]

i cant take the " every gun is common, ammo stacks x10, weapons have 10x more health "

this is basically what i run

[dusk knot]

[dusk knot]

Just don’t have much time on my hands

[queen briar]

i mean the server stops when i turn it off btu all data saves. so theres no real loss with it but how much time do oyu have

[dusk knot]

Let me think about it

[queen briar]

ok

do you know anyone else whod be interested?

[dusk knot]

Maybe

[queen briar]

im aiming for this saturday to see if i can get a gorup interested

i think @sinful blade is going for a minecraft server

which id be down for too, i justwant to get a group together and play SOMETHING

[dusk knot]

I c

I’m still watching the vid you sent. I’m liking it

[queen briar]

hes super good at story telling

the other side of the shit coin is this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWb-kKg_NEA

theres also dedicated modders, liek this dude made 80's arcade cabinets in game

theres 2 people dedicated to modding every car in game as well

theres a third one but hes doing like... ice cream trucks and snow plows

but every once in awhile he does a military vic.

[dusk knot]

Cool

God. I’m sleepy

But this video is entertaining

[queen briar]

actually, its 10:30

i gotta be up at 5 for work

[queen briar]

i watched it for 20 minutes while i laid in bed to sleep

sometimes i fell asleep on it

its kindal ike one of those audio books

[dusk knot]

East coast best coast. It’s 1:46 am

[queen briar]

If that was true, newegg wouldnt be on West coast 🙂

[nocturne flicker]

Why would we want Silicon Valley over here? None of us want to be guinea pigs for the new self driving murder machines cars or have them driving up property values like they do in Cali

[elfin mural]

@lone mango i have a feeling my laptop's screen is shitting itself

or maybe it's just loose connection of the display cable to the mobo

idk, i'll take it apart like tomorrow lmao

the artifacts are now appearing even in the bios

[lone mango]

it can either be the connection or the display or the gpu

[elfin mural]

i ddu'd both drivers on igp and dgp

[lone mango]

the gpu failure is pretty rare though

[elfin mural]

i sure hope it's not the gpu

[lone mango]

you know whats crazy bro

[elfin mural]

tomorrow imma reconnect the display cable

[lone mango]

there was a guy in here that had an intel cpu with a failing igpu

that was the first time i have seen something like that before

[elfin mural]

oof

[desert axle]

Is there a channel so I can ask questions about what prebuilts to buy?

[dusk knot]

Ok I really dislike how the game deletes survivors….

[queen briar]

?

I mean... they come back to life

Oh you mean how you have people but they dissapear?,

[dusk knot]

When his game crashes, he loses everyone

[queen briar]

That's a game issue

[dusk knot]

That were at his base

[queen briar]

So they dont get deleted

They are put on the world

They just leave party

For some odd reason

[dusk knot]

Smh

[queen briar]

That's a old video though. Theyve done some work to remedy it

Doesnt happen as often

[dusk knot]

I hope so

[queen briar]

Its rare now a days

Your structures can be deleted too

It's really weird

The crashes doesn always save so it reverts back to last Dave state of server

[lone mango]

bro think he funny

[elfin mural]

bro the behavior of ai bros makes my skin crawl while i laugh at the childish behavior they have lmao

"let me trust an LLM to take control of my whole pc, nothing could go wrong right"

[sand hill]

did anyone see this

[sand hill]

i can't help myself with this, but are these parts good or i'm gonna be lied by newegg with this?

[cedar compass]

I just interested why you buying extra cooler while 9600x comes with 240 aio

[sand hill]

I…..got it from picker but is it fine?

[cedar compass]

I think it'll be alright for 9600x . also keep in mind this board don't have wifi

and check newegg combo section . if you willing to buy these from newegg , you may find them cheaper in combo

[elfin mural]

i'd just use the aio that comes included with the cpu

buying the air cooler here seems redundant

[sand hill]

Ok but I just wanna know about it’s the the price is almost low (sorta) or I’m still being lied on this and I wish there’s a way to lower the price

[elfin mural]

5060 for that price can certainly be changed for a 9060xt 16gb

[sand hill]

What does that mean?

[cedar compass]

https://www.newegg.com/asrock-challenger-rx9060xt-cl-16go-radeon-rx-9060-xt-16gb-graphics-card-double-fans/p/N82E16814930140?Item=N82E16814930140 you can get this one for little higher price but this is alot better gpu

[lethal jasper]

1 week without my main pc 🥀

This will be hell

With the 1060

[sand hill]

Is this the cheapest one? Is there anyone else that nots $400?

[sinful blade]

I have this

[lethal jasper]

And the 60 hertz monitor

😭

[tranquil pebble]

low refresh rate really hertz

[unborn wind]

Hi guys

[velvet summit]

https://youtube.com/shorts/CaKZVYQ_47k

[craggy shoal]

Why the 5060 8GB? It's 2026. Give yourself at least 12GB (just get a 9070 XT so you have 16GB)

Also, this belongs in #building-and-recc-chat

[bitter ridge]

Techpowerup went the extra mile for today

[tranquil pebble]

one of my minecraft mods bricked my game as a "joke". Not very funny.

I hate april 1st

[sinful blade]

https://www.newegg.com/hp-w2207h-22-wsxga/p/N82E16824176091

traded this for

[craggy shoal]

I know the 9070 XT can get a higher frame rate. Does that include ray tracing?

[sinful blade]

Bit older, but rarely used and no bad sectors

[craggy shoal]

Thank God this monitor works with Windows Vista. I was worried it wouldn't be compatible

[sinful blade]

[elfin mural]

it also comes with a hdmi port

woah, so futuristic

[unreal trail]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkFdqqyI8y4

[bitter ridge]

I think these days the HDDs would be more useful than that monitor

[craggy shoal]

It's been eight years since this released

[unreal trail]

its a vid of terrain gen lol

gg bethesda

[elfin mural]

it's april 1st

i don't trust any release announcements at this date

[bitter ridge]

Original Rog Ally was a real thing announced this day

[elfin mural]

[unborn wind]

Is res evil good

[velvet summit]

depends on if you like the type of game

but yeah

[unborn wind]

I haven’t played yet lol - resent bc didn’t wanna stack messages to much

[velvet summit]

none of them?

[elfin mural]

requiem in particular is a survival horror and action horror game

[unborn wind]

Not yet but I bought all 3 bundle on special

[elfin mural]

it's like 50% of each

it's how i'd put it without any spoilers

[unborn wind]

Im rlly excited to try cyberpunk but probs gonna have to lower res haha

[velvet summit]

cyberpunk isnt actually that hard to run at reasonable settings

[unborn wind]

Eh I’ve seen it struggle in 4k 5070

I mean it’s playable but eh depends on settings tbh

[velvet summit]

key words: at reasonable settings

[unborn wind]

yeah imo it should be fine in right settings

[velvet summit]

i played cyberpunk at launch on a rx570

[unborn wind]

I’m excepting ultra with ray tracing etc frfr

[unborn wind]

my friend doesn’t like the game because it’s never changed apparently

[velvet summit]

it's an ok game

[elfin mural]

i'd pop on some upscaling if you wanna run 4k while keeping settings high

[unborn wind]

Honestly not sure how it will run

[elfin mural]

upscaling from a lower res to 4k doesn't result in much of a quality decrease tbh

it's almost free perf basically

[unborn wind]

Apparently it can run like 80-90 fps but artefacts?

I was watching some dudes yt video trying all res

[elfin mural]

4k rt ultra in cp2077 seems to max out the vram

granted with dlss set to performance mode

[unborn wind]

Yeah 12gb so

[sharp charm]

what is should I get?

os

[sinful blade]

Windows 7

[sharp charm]

hold on I have a screenshot

[sinful blade]

You don’t technically need any of those

[sharp charm]

I want windows 11 but I'd ont know which one

oh

[sinful blade]

@elfin mural give the questionable sources

[velvet summit]

Fedora

[unborn wind]

I love how Microsoft makes u buy a new key every time u change ssd to new pc

[velvet summit]

None of them

[unborn wind]

that should be illegal

[sinful blade]

That shouldn’t be
It’s tied to your account

[sharp charm]

starting to feel like a drug deal now so you got the stuff

[sinful blade]

[elfin mural]

to windows?

[sinful blade]

Yes

[unborn wind]

Idk man

[elfin mural]

ok

[unborn wind]

For me it said my licence has issues

Bc new hardware detected

[elfin mural]

uhh do you need an iso too or just the "key"

[sinful blade]

You have been paying unnecessarily

I’ve had the same windows key for 11 years lmao

[sharp charm]

idk

[unborn wind]

wild

[sharp charm]

probablly

[elfin mural]

for iso just download it from microsoft

[unborn wind]

I think it’s a new thing

[velvet summit]

It's not

[elfin mural]

run it thru rufus to make a bootable media

[sinful blade]

Nah, it’s been the same for a long time

[unborn wind]

Bc I never ever had it until now

And I have a few windows ssds

Not until recently

[sharp charm]

so how come those like trashy laptops from Walmart are under 60 bucks if the os isnt

[unborn wind]

And I’m always swapping around one of the ssds in test bench’s

[sinful blade]

Yes

[velvet summit]

Wait

Where do you find laptops under 60 bucks

[sinful blade]

Walmart clearance has a ton

[sharp charm]

well they used to be not sure now

[velvet summit]

Damn???

[unborn wind]

Used market

[velvet summit]

I guess this is just in the US walmarts

[sharp charm]

it was liked really shitty laptops like Intel Celeron type stuff

[velvet summit]

Never seen anything like that on Walmart.ca

[elfin mural]

@sharp charm sorry for the dm, but i sent you the stuff over there

[sinful blade]

https://www.walmart.com/ip/15009259423?

[sharp charm]

idc if you dm me

[unborn wind]

Why does it say ip lmao

[sinful blade]

It doesn’t

[velvet summit]

It's an IP grabber ofc

[sinful blade]

I’m gonna smack you

Unfortunate for the children on that platform

There are many many perverts on that game

I’m surprised baszucki isn’t on a list

“Safety” adds stuff that can ruin that In a second I’m sure people can bypass the filters

[elfin mural]

roblox chat now requires age verification, a system that is way too easy to bypass too

[unborn wind]

still

yeah

What the hell is considered trusted

trusted can be anyone no?

WAIT

IM SLOW

[elfin mural]

yeah

[unborn wind]

APRIL 1ST

Bruh

[elfin mural]

trusted connections are real tho, but images and voice messages might be a joke

[lethal jasper]

Connections 😭

[unborn wind]

I can’t believe I fell for it

Oh no the pc was stuck at 150fps w 5070 even changing card same thing. Was a timing thing or whatever cmd fixed it

[tranquil pebble]

April 1st sucks ngl

[bitter ridge]

I almost fell for this one

[worn night]

actually tho theres so many trolls

fake ping

[tranquil pebble]

the fake pings have gotten old and dont surprise me anymore ngl

[worn night]

yeah ts is not original or funny

[stoic cosmos]

What do I upgrade to if I have a amd ryzen 5 5600x 6 core processor and it needs to be able to power a 3070ti

[worn night]

your cpu does not power your gpu, your power supply does

[stoic cosmos]

My motherboard is good though

[stoic cosmos]

I need more fps

[worn night]

just make sure you have a good power supply, probably around 600-700w

[stoic cosmos]

I play cpu based games

[worn night]

so your pc currently is a 5600x and 3070ti right?

[stoic cosmos]

Yes

[worn night]

do you play at 1080p

[stoic cosmos]

I need an upgrade for my cpu but I dont wanna spend 500 dollars

[unborn wind]

Omg

2 years ago today I had a hp

[worn night]

you dont really have to spend that much

[stoic cosmos]

On newegg its that much

[worn night]

which one are you trying to buy

[icy ore]

Not fast enough

[stoic cosmos]

9850x3d was recommended to me

[worn night]

the 9850x3d is not supported on an am4 motherboard, to get that cpu you would need to upgrade your motherboard and ram

[stoic cosmos]

Okay good

[worn night]

you can find a decent upgrade on ebay, look for a 5700x or a 5800x

heck, if you need the cores you could even get a 5900x

[worn night]

what motherboard do you have?

[stoic cosmos]

I dont even know my brother built it and gave it to me

[worn night]

oh

[stoic cosmos]

Is it a lose cause

I got 32 ram though

Everything is up to date besides the cpu

[worn night]

32gb of ddr4 is really good to have nowadays, your brother is generous

[worn night]

nah

[unborn wind]

I’m gonna probably finish the budget budget am4 pc tmrw
R3 3200g
Gtx 1650 super
B450M Board
8gb ram
120gb ssd
240nzd
Under 140usd

😀

[stoic cosmos]

He bought it back in 2024

[worn night]

nice that means he got everything for good prices

[stoic cosmos]

Did it gain value or something

[worn night]

a LOT

ram and storage prices have quadrupled

[tranquil pebble]

96 GB of DDR5 could be had for less than $300 before this mess

[unborn wind]

Don’t even know how one of the MSI stickers came off

[worn night]

This is sick

[mint sundial]

Good morning

[hidden scroll]

Morning

[worn night]

sick

[stoic cosmos]

@worn night

My cpu temp is 72c

[worn night]

while doing nothing?

[stoic cosmos]

Yeah

[worn night]

Install fancontrol and set everything except GPU to 100%

https://getfancontrol.com/

[stoic cosmos]

Well what do I do about my cpu cooler and ny fans the leds arent working

[worn night]

could I see it?

[stoic cosmos]

Dms

[worn night]

so yeah your cooler is probably just spinning very slowly

[stoic cosmos]

How do I fix

[worn night]

The fans can be as fast as they can go but if the pump isnt pumping then theres no point

[worn night]

https://getfancontrol.com/

Install this, let it automatically detect your fans, then set everything it detected to 100%

your pc should then sound a bit louder

but itll be much cooler

[unborn wind]

What’s the guys name who is the main guy in METAPCS

[worn night]

might even move some dust around

[worn night]

pc papa

zach shutt

[unborn wind]

Huh

Zach?

[worn night]

Not Zack with a k from ZTT

Meta pcs has Zach with an h

[stoic cosmos]

its making me download windows x64?

[worn night]

it will require the desktop runtime

[stoic cosmos]

ion even know what that is

[worn night]

dw i gotchu

which one did you select

[stoic cosmos]

fan control v264 .NET 10

[worn night]

The installer or the zip

[stoic cosmos]

installer

[worn night]

ok good thats the right one

[stoic cosmos]

ok good bc im jus assuming LOL

[worn night]

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download big purple button

[stoic cosmos]

i have it pulled up

sensor settings??

do i mess with anything

[worn night]

What screen are you on rn

[stoic cosmos]

it just labels off everything

[worn night]

this?

[stoic cosmos]

mhm

[worn night]

ok click the wrench icon at the top left

then click pair controls automatically

[stoic cosmos]

everything is testing and fixing itself

everything is so loud

everything is set to 75 and still testing

[worn night]

that means its working lol

your fans were probably at like 10% all this time lol

if you can stand the bit of noise, having the fans going fast is better for the pc

[stoic cosmos]

wait so do i need to upgrade because when i play games i only get 130 fps or less

im still confused about that part

[worn night]

Which games do you play

the 3070ti is strong but its a bit dated by now

[stoic cosmos]

simple games like minecraft fornite cod roblox marvel rivals

[worn night]

and by the way you dont need to set your gpu fans to max as they are the loudest, they can be at like 50% or just leave the controller off cause the nvidia software will control its fans

[worn night]

hmm

for cod, fortnite and marvel rivals that seems like a normal fps

minecraft and roblox should have hundreds more

[stoic cosmos]

yeah im only getting 130 on a high end game on roblox

[worn night]

where are you seeing your fps count

[stoic cosmos]

fps logger that i have

[elfin mural]

not all roblox games run well

[worn night]

yeah

[stoic cosmos]

ohhhh

[elfin mural]

it might seem like an easy game to run, but some more demanding games can be rather heavy

i'd watch for temps and clock speeds

[worn night]

this is probably a dumb question but you made sure the displayport or hdmi is connected to the gpu and not the motherboard right

and is it 130 fps in every game?

[stoic cosmos]

i have the best hdmi cable on the market plugged into my main and then a normal into my secondary monitor

[worn night]

ok it might be you using an hdmi cable thats bottlenecking 💀

[stoic cosmos]

these big ahh words i dont understand

also what does this curve thing mean

[elfin mural]

i think we might need to look at where the hdmi cables are connected to on the pc

[worn night]

he needs green role if possible

[stoic cosmos]

green role

what am i a test subject

[worn night]

nah lol you can send images here now

[elfin mural]

the role is given by chatting here

and it seems you've leveled up enough

[stoic cosmos]

ooo

[worn night]

it does seem that way...

[stoic cosmos]

you wanna look at my cables

[elfin mural]

yeah

[worn night]

yeah lets see the back of the pc

[elfin mural]

where your hdmi cables are hooked up to behind the pc

that's where we wanna see

[stoic cosmos]

theres that purple tag i dont know what that really means if it means ayhting

[worn night]

ok looks correct, but that looks like a displayport u sure its an hdmi?

[worn night]

lol its showing how to remove it

thats a displayport cable

[stoic cosmos]

ah

[worn night]

they are better than hdmi for pc gaming

[stoic cosmos]

is that why it wouldnt fit in the normal slot

[worn night]

probably

you cant plug displayport into hdmi

[worn night]

so wait

did you get 130 fps in every game?

consistently?

[stoic cosmos]

a lot of the time its lower but on like a loading screen i get 240

[worn night]

you might have an fps limiter somewhere

i dont have much experience with the nvidia software hmm

[stoic cosmos]

my gpu is getting 37c now

also what does curve mean

[worn night]

thats good

[velvet summit]

huh

[worn night]

the curve is it going faster when the temperatures are higher

i would leave that off and just set every fan except gpu fans to 100%

[velvet summit]

according to the steam hardware survey, over 9% of all windows users on steam use a rtx5070 specifically

actually over 9% between all platforms as well

[stoic cosmos]

rich people

[velvet summit]

it's the most popular gpu on steam currently

[stoic cosmos]

yo i feel stupid compared to yall i dont know what anything means on my pc

[worn night]

its alr man that what we're here for

[velvet summit]

to be fair

there's so much shit on a pc that even people who know alot about pcs still dont know about some things

[worn night]

lol

[stoic cosmos]

yess i need more help now once more so back to my led for my cpu pump and fans

[worn night]

if theyre off it means two things

theyre either disabled in the bios or theyre not plugged in

[velvet summit]

or they're dead

[worn night]

you can control your lights with this https://openrgb.org/

[stoic cosmos]

i tried to change the color of them by installing a thingy to change the color and i didnt do it right and it messed up and now it doesnt turn on

[worn night]

ohh

is the controller you installed still installed?

[stoic cosmos]

wait

its the same one

i installed this but it isnt detecting anyhting

[worn night]

run it as administrator

[stoic cosmos]

it found the ram

but still not the fans

[worn night]

The fans are part of your motherboard in the software

so click msi mpg b550

[stoic cosmos]

I FOUND MY MOTHERBOARD

[worn night]

yeah its in there

and then fans are one of the LEDs or zones i dont remember lol

[stoic cosmos]

onboard??

[worn night]

yeah its probably lights built in to the motherboard

just mess around with it, sent them to colors and see whats what

[stoic cosmos]

i put it as white but the gpu is still green and blue

the leds on the gpu arent turning off either

[worn night]

it might not be controllable

[velvet summit]

was it not jrgb1

[worn night]

the gpu was its own category in the previous pic

[velvet summit]

i thought this was for case fans or smth

[worn night]

the gpu fans arent changing

i mean rgb not fans

[velvet summit]

uh.. I just like action games bro

it's not really that deep

[bitter ridge]

One off is fine but I saw takes like every game should have hyper sensualized proportions like this which I absolutely disagree with

[unreal trail]

and every game doesn't

there are plenty of games where the PC is shaped like an ogre or a stump

tbf though, I think there shouldn't be an inordinate amount of vitriol dispensed whenever we do get a game that showcases artistic beauty, which is what the studio was doing with Stellar Blade. It's not like its in Compile Heart territory where its distasteful
