Funny meme though

[sinful blade]

Why is that a paper

Why

[velvet summit]

there's a myth that people swallow like 2 spiders in their sleep in their lifetime or whatever

though it's not like it's impossible to ever get a spider in your mouth in your sleep, especially if you're a mouth breather

[plush path]

It's highly unlikely because the sensitivity of your skin if a spider were to crawl onto it, you would wake up

[bitter ridge]

Maybe it is because I live in a high rise penthouse but very lucky that I have never found a spider

[velvet summit]

eh, it depends
i've gotten bug bites while sleeping and only finding out in the morning
granted they're probably smaller than spiders but i am a pretty deep sleeper

[plush path]

Bug bites anesthetize you

You don't feel them, and as you said, they're much smaller

[velvet summit]

must be a weak ass anesthesia then because it hurt quite a bit when i woke up

[plush path]

So yes, you're very correct

No, the bite usually injects anesthesia type

I'm not an expert but you can do some googling

So you don't feel them bite you

[velvet summit]

though theoretically i would have noticed them walking to where they bite though

[plush path]

Yes, theoretically you would have

But they exert such small pressure compared to a spider that it's rare to feel them crawling

Similar to the mites in your eyelashes, the size matters

You don't feel those

Beside the ram, is the cpu and motherboard good?

I’m gon upgrade my 3070 rtx gpu to something better in the future

[elfin mural]

it's worth a try to look at the refreshed cpus tbh

270k plus or 265k plus

[dusk knot]

There has to be a cheaper motherboard out there

Or that’s just intel

-50 has been solid so far haven't tried pushing further

[rancid juniper]

keep
pushing

Nvidia and Intel can finally let you pre-compile shader

wtf is amd doin?

amd being amd

[rancid juniper]

fr smh

[lone mango]

Games already load quickly, I don’t understand

[rancid juniper]

you forgetting games like marvel rivals?

[neat plover]

I might go with AMD ryzen 7

[rancid juniper]

that takes a while to load up

[lone mango]

Idk never played

[rancid juniper]

oh

[lone mango]

I guess what I play doesn’t need it then

[grand kernel]

well I haven't even been on -50 for long enough to decide if it's stable yet

driver crashing due to oc instability should cause the oc to reset right?

[lone mango]

Yes

[grand kernel]

when cyberpunk crashed in photo mode the oc didn't reset

[rancid juniper]

dang, cyberpunk crashed on the main menu (2nd run)

😡

[grand kernel]

so I don't think its due to instability I think it just ran out of vram lol

[lone mango]

Could be a soft crash that wasn’t hard enough to initiate a timeout

[rancid juniper]

gonna run it at default to see if its because of pathtracing being enabled

[languid drum]

I been trying the divison on cellphone looks like it has different options to start shooting. But I keep having problems with it shooting when I'm not touch the screen..

[grand kernel]

maybe... first time seeing it though

[rancid juniper]

send me your vram chips

mines quirky

[grand kernel]

I also need to try out this vulkanmemtest thing

I'm pretty sure I can push past 2780

2780 was just what I put to be safe cause I couldn't be bothered to limit test the stability until I figured out core

[rancid juniper]

omg YES, IT CRASHED AT DEFAULT CLOCKS YES

thought my oc profile was cooked

[grand kernel]

performance keeps rising until 2806

[lone mango]

Idk i remember getting higher speeds on memtest than in game

[grand kernel]

so I feel like I can get it stable at higher than 2780

[rancid juniper]

this is my results from vulkan memtest

[lone mango]

For memory I would keep increasing the speed until you see the framerate stop increasing

[grand kernel]

I just want to test for error correcting vs. what 3dmark told me

[rancid juniper]

bandwidth stays somewhat stable

just minimal drops

[grand kernel]

are you on 26.3.1

[rancid juniper]

yes

[grand kernel]

ah okay

[rancid juniper]

facts

[grand kernel]

I was gonna say only 26.3.1 can run cyberpunk with PT

[rancid juniper]

thats when ECC kicks in or something

[grand kernel]

well these are my 3dmark results

2806: 7612, 7615, 7606, 7624, 7614 = 7614.2
2804: 7608, 7607, 7620 = 7611.7
2802: 7608, 7606, 7613 = 7609
2800: 7604, 7593, 7604 = 7600.3

I averaged 3-5 runs in the area of interest

others just 1 run

[rancid juniper]

so 2808 is the second best

and my goodness thats a lot of runs

[grand kernel]

speaking of overclocking

decreasing my VDDG CCD/IOD from 0.910V to 0.905V reduces my performance by 35% in VT3

that 5mV is doing a lot of heavy lifting

especially when the minimum is... 0.900V

@rancid juniper https://github.com/GpuZelenograd/memtest_vulkan/releases/tag/v0.5.0

is this correct?

[rancid juniper]

yea this is the latest version

[grand kernel]

ty

[rancid juniper]

np

[grand kernel]

ayo

ok i got tons of errors at 2806 LOL

so 3dmark is not reliable for determining where ECC begins i guess

[rancid juniper]

yo...

thats wild

better dial it back

[grand kernel]

less than 10 seconds to find errors

[rancid juniper]

This tool is so good, managed to find proper vram clocks for the 4060 mobile

[grand kernel]

maybe i'll try it on my laptop too

my laptop is running a fat vram oc

[rancid juniper]

like at +2000mhz there wasn't any errors in games, no weird flickers and such
but this tool found errors fast and i had to dial it down to +1200mhz

my 9070xt on the other hand... oof

just dropped it down to 2776

nvm laptop just exploded

[languid drum]

Well try division game on cell phone with razer raiju moblie on cell phone. Great fun makes me consider a new upgraded controller now but that was fun.

[rancid juniper]

division getting a mobile game was not on my bingo card

whats next, crimson desert mobile?

wait that might be likely

[grand kernel]

where do you think this 9070xt will be stable at

[rancid juniper]

2750mhz at best

[grand kernel]

down to 2774 now

it's still erroring pretty fast, within a few mins at 2776

laptop sat with no errors for like 5 mins at +1550 then exploded into error spam

pretty cool to see the laptop getting 471.5 GB/s bandwidth when advertised for 3070M is 448 GB/s

9070xt is getting lower than advertised though despite the oc 🙁

[rancid juniper]

the vram on the 9070 xt probably has an exaggerated spec

[grand kernel]

getting 606.5 GB/s compared to 644.6 GB/s

passed 5 minutes at 2770

so probably not too far off now

lol got an error right after typing that

but yeah probably should be 2766-2768 stable

[rancid juniper]

errored out of spite

computers be petty

[grand kernel]

all my computers probably hate me

[nocturne flicker]

Prices shall remain high until morale improves

[shrewd karma]

they are expensive since most are coming from Asia

[sinful blade]

That’s all I’ll say on the subject

Also help #cases-psu-and-cooling

[nocturne flicker]

The tarrifs are mostly off the table right now. The current high prices are due largely to high quantities being bought by datacenters, the war is only starting to impact prices

[rancid juniper]

wake me up when they make rockets that can hit 100k mph ez

and im talking manned rockets

[nocturne flicker]

And if you want to talk about economics, the space shuttles were well over 2 times more expensive to get into leo than single use rockets. One of the parts of the reliable and routine bits of the mission was that it was supposed to be cost efficient too

Not to mention the fact that they were so expensive that they practically killed any bigger, more ambitious projects, especially after 2 of them blew up and they still continued on with them for many years after despite the budget cuts those explosions caused

[icy ore]

yes sirrrr. We built the upper stage for this one at work

Apple has issued an emergency recall for the new Neo laptop after discovering a critical design flaw: it’s repairable.

Internal testing revealed the device contains replaceable parts and a battery that comes out without adhesive. Unacceptable for their standards.

[sand hill]

hey does anyone still use the ddr4? cause my brother found a prebuilt pc that's has a ddr4 and release in 2026

[nocturne flicker]

Many people still use DDR4 yes

What about it

[sand hill]

well to be honest i thought it was outdated wasn;t it? cause i heard it

[nocturne flicker]

It isn't the newest type of ram, yes. Doesn't mean a lot of people don't still use it

The prebuilt will have an older cpu and mobo though

The cpu and mobo is likely 3+ years old

Or rather that is age of the products when looking at release dates rather than the actual parts used

[heady plinth]

Or a refresh of an older cpu like a 5800xt or an intel 120f.

[unborn wind]

Is this overpriced in USA idk why but I got this suggested on marketplace even tho I’m nz, it’s a US listing

[heady plinth]

Depends on the monitors but yeah.

[nocturne flicker]

Ddr5 is cheap in nz at right place

One place is selling brand new 64gb G-skill neo 5 Rgb ddr5 6000mhz for 995nzd like 572USD

U would think scam site because 99% of other retailers it’s normally like 800-900 for just 32gb but nah it’s legit I’ve bought am4 mobo, and ssd of em no issues at good prices

it might just not be showing up cause you have no drivers? but i feel like microsoft basic display adapter usually shows under display adapters...

💀

oof

anything under unknown devices?

[thick echo]

HypeSquad has been discontinued

[grand kernel]

what does it say

yeaaah that sounds like a gpu that's not being recognized

which gpu is it

[dusk knot]

[grand kernel]

oh polaris

so rx 400/500

yeah it might just be dead

maybe a victim of the crypto wars

yeah i've never seen a gpu show up as pci simple communications/sm bus controller before

i've seen code 43 microsoft basic display adapter

oh

you know what

[frigid stag]

well idk if thats the gpu or not its just a random thing

[grand kernel]

it's possible that it's alive but it's flashed to a mining vbios...

i wonder

it's most likely dead

but that's a possibility

https://www.techpowerup.com/download/ati-atiflash/

uhhh maybe

worth seeing if gpu-z picks anything up at least

do you know which model it is

or have a pic

or is there a sticker on the back that indicates what card it is

if it's a 4gb card the likelihood of it being stuck on a mining vbios is much lower

if it's 8gb then higher

oh right polaris x60 exists

are you sure 460?

polaris would be rx 560

rx 460 is called baffin

nah they're often both referred to as polarise but polaris is a refresh gen

rx 460 = baffin
rx 470/480 = ellesmere
rx 550 = lexa/baffin
rx 560 = polaris/ellesmere
rx 570/580/590 = polaris

oh did you find the whole pc?

i thought you just found the gpu and tested it in your own pc

well there's definitely some sort of chipset drivers installed

probably not up to date

but i don't think that's the issue

microsoft pnp is not gonna allow you to not have chipset drivers

[frigid stag]

whats that

[grand kernel]

plug n play compatibility

[frigid stag]

ah

[grand kernel]

the thing that auto fetches drivers

so your grandma doesn't have to load display/wifi/bt/chipset drivers onto a usb during windows setup lol

anyways i can tell you nobody was mining on an rx 460 in crypto wave 2 (~2020)

but maybe they were in wave 1 (~2017)

[thick echo]

I'm in love

Blankets :3

[grand kernel]

i mean by wave 2 the ETH DAG exceeded 4gb in size

so 4gb cards simply weren't able to mine ETH

[worn wave]

Well the miners eating up cards inflated the whole market

[neat plover]

W build

[grand kernel]

🤨

yeah demand from budget gamers that got priced out of better options

[ashen swan]

I need power bank for my framework 12 any reccomendation ?

[ashen swan]

Coffe lake compition ?🤨

[grand kernel]

yoooo

any maplestory players in the chat

[heady plinth]

My pc broke after getting knocked off the desk at about the peak of the second wave of crypto nonsense. I ended up using a 1060 3gb for about a year. You needed at least 4gb for eth mining.

[worn wave]

Same vram, cheaper, only a little slower ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[grand kernel]

AMD has some wild architecture names

[frigid stag]

i dont remember the specifics

[grand kernel]

yes, 3060ti and 3070 had identical mining performance

but 3060ti consumed a little less power on average

and of course cost less

[heady plinth]

It was mainly memory bandwidth dependent wasn't it?

[grand kernel]

yeah 3080 was way better than 3090 for mining

but 3090 was still profitable

[worthy meteor]

Everything was profitable at the peak lol

[grand kernel]

yeah prettty much

any miner that knew what they were doing would downclock the gpu a ton to save power cause the gpu was much less important

[ashen swan]

So whats the diffrence between 3070 and 3060 ti

like

is it worth the 1000 dollars plus

[worthy meteor]

Stronger core

[grand kernel]

1000 dollars plus?

what

[worthy meteor]

Whoa what since when was 3070 $1000 more

[ashen swan]

NTD

NTD

Taiwan money

[grand kernel]

💀

ah...

[heady plinth]

Is that like 5 to 1?

[grand kernel]

1000 ntd = 31.24 usd

[ashen swan]

so it's like
170 smt to 250 smt

170 being 3060 ti
250 being 3070

or a 3070 ti being 270

[grand kernel]

for that difference get the 3060ti

[worn wave]

What's the percentage difference in price?

[ashen swan]

around 1000 NTD

[gleaming sedge]

what would cause my youtube video to stop playing but audio to keep going when playing certain games and tabbed into the games? it gets fixed when i tab out of the game

[worthy meteor]

If it's $170 vs $250 then 3060ti, if it's only a $30 difference so $170 and $200, I'd say prob 3070

[heady plinth]

They perform measurably different but maybe not noticeably different without an fps counter.

[worthy meteor]

I'd put the difference at somewhere around 10%

[ashen swan]

Paired with a 270K plus

or

I could just save for a 3080 or 9070

[grand kernel]

don't bother getting a 270K plus with a 3060ti/3070

unless you plan to upgrade gpu very soon after

just get the 250K

[worn wave]

Honestly even at 170 vs 200 the 3060ti might be better

[ashen swan]

this is not for games

[grand kernel]

ah

well

[heady plinth]

What is it for?

[ashen swan]

I'm doing Gimp (so exporting stuff)

it's basically Photoshop but avilable on linux

Blender might be smt + editing

[grand kernel]

3060ti and 3070 are the same chip but 3060ti has 38 SMs enabled and 3070 has 46

same 8gb gddr6 with 448 gb/s bandwidth

same 256-bit bus

[heady plinth]

And now that extra 3gb look a lot more useful.

[grand kernel]

ok 2080ti was not close to 3080

[worn wave]

Well, more than a bit (iirc)

[worthy meteor]

$170 vs $200 is a lot less clear cut as which is a better option either way, I'd personally take the 3070 at those prices

[grand kernel]

you would probably need epower + a chiller to get a 2080ti to match a 3080

[worn wave]

Didn't you have a power mod?

[grand kernel]

what was your time spy result?

my bottom tier 3080 model that lost the silicon lottery really badly got 19042 graphics score in time spy

[worn wave]

Also one anecdotal example doesn't mean you can say 2080ti = 3080

[grand kernel]

that was the worst gpu i ever owned

in terms of silicon lottery

best it could do was +45 core/+430 mem lol

i got a red screen of death at +440 mem

[ashen swan]

I’m just gonna get a 3070 tbh higher peformance then a B580 and possibility to mod it 16gb

[grand kernel]

3070 16gb mod is not something you should be seriously considering

[ashen swan]

It’s like a side project if/when I upgrade my GPU

[grand kernel]

nah 2080ti was nowhere near 3080 unless you were doing something really exotic with the 2080ti

[ashen swan]

Not smt I will do once I get the card

[grand kernel]

i'm talking about time spy

a good 3080 can do 20840 on stock air

for 3080???

🤨

i think you are either looking at overall score

or extreme cherry picking

[worn wave]

All of 30/40 (and maybe 50?) series don't OC as well as previous generations

[grand kernel]

rank 1 air cooled 2080ti on hwbot is 17490 graphics score

[heady plinth]

Might depend on model? A lot of 4070 had a single 8 pin so they wouldn't have much room to increase power limit. The 12vhpwr ones could have that higher.

[grand kernel]

so the rank 1 air cooled 2080ti was still nowhere near my absolute lemon of a 3080

rank 1 air cooled 3080 is 20840

17490 vs 20840

probably thrashes the 3080 as soon as >10gb vram is needed

[manic trail]

I love my 3080

[grand kernel]

looks at my 9070xt crashing from running out of vram

at 1440p

cyberpunk

yeah

[lone mango]

Interesting https://discover.hubpages.com/games-hobbies/the-wii-u-gpu-latte

[grand kernel]

I have texture mods that increase the vram usage by ~1.5gb

I have to close some background stuff to not run out of vram lol

well the 3080 was marketed as a 4K card when it came out

was true when it came out but idk about now lol

[neat plover]

:sada

[grand kernel]

3090 was marketed as an 8K card... wasn't even true when it came out

8K 10 fps

[leaden pewter]

So I’ve done some testing and have came to some results about the new dynamic FG and 6x mode, simple to say 6x isn’t worth the use unless you don’t care about image quality, but their new FG model (preset B) is better with image clarity and stability and this is running it on ultra performance at 4k and any dlss 4.5 title

[grand kernel]

perfect

SLI was long dead by the time the 3090 came out

[leaden pewter]

1080ti was the peak of sli and the final king of a true rasterization

[grand kernel]

i have no idea what the use case of 6x frame gen is

the games that you want super high fps in are also the games that care enough about input lag that you wouldn't want any frame gen, no?

[heady plinth]

Pretty much.

[grand kernel]

not like these 50 series cards are gonna struggle to hit like 800 fps in cs2 or whatever

[heady plinth]

They can put bigger number on bar graph though.

[grand kernel]

you really need 6x frame gen to push it to 4800 fps?

[leaden pewter]

High refresh rate monitors but mainly to push 8k at “playable frames”

[ashen swan]

A 2080 ti seems pretty good ?

[grand kernel]

i mean there's still that base fps requirement to really be playable

[leaden pewter]

Hint the quotations

[grand kernel]

fair

[heady plinth]

And frame gen will lower that by a significant amount when you turn it on. Like turning 60 into '100'.

[grand kernel]

i don't think anything beyond 2x really matters

there's an argument i can imagine for 3x

4x is already just unnecessary

[leaden pewter]

Tho in cyberpunk I did get 350fps avg with PT at 4k which looked smooth but again brought upon image instability

[grand kernel]

not surprising

[frigid stag]

maybe not but the 5090 being even higher above that is

[grand kernel]

is that just the rx 9070? or 9070 and 9070xt combined

[frigid stag]

non xt

[grand kernel]

cause I really doubt the 9070 is the most popular radeon gpu

[frigid stag]

not sure

[grand kernel]

interesting

[frigid stag]

it is a bit cheaper so maybe

[heady plinth]

The 9070s main purpose in life was to be a price anchor to ge you to buy a 9070xt.

[grand kernel]

hmm yeah steam appears to detect my 9070xt as a 9070xt and not a 9070

[leaden pewter]

The new dlss FG preset B also reduces usage on some resources to help boost more base frames and clarity and text is a lot more readable and closer to native but only at 2-3x and with ultra perf preset (model L)

[frigid stag]

and get the same performane

[grand kernel]

ok i just checked the steam hardware survey

not surprised by the top radeon gpu

7800xt, 1.1%

[heady plinth]

Is it 580?

[frigid stag]

580s prob near the bottom

[upper rain]

that is... remarkably poor value

[grand kernel]

though i would personally just group the rx 6600/6600xtt/6650xt together

in that case that would be the top at 1.42%

[neat plover]

enlighten me with a gpu

[frigid stag]

i thought it was in cad

[upper rain]

my modded 9070 non XT gets roughly 5080 performance. but that's also with vmod

they overclock really really well

[worn wave]

Fwiw this hardware survey had some odd results

[heady plinth]

6600 had a different core, 6650xt had different memory spec.

[grand kernel]

rx 580 is kinda hanging in there

[upper rain]

5070 ti can be found for like $850 and performs 10% slower than the 5080, you also overpaid for CPU, board, and RAM

[grand kernel]

i mean... you don't see different listings for 3060ti GA104 and 3060ti GA103

or 3050 8gb and 3050 6gb

[upper rain]

6600 is n23 same as 6650xt

[grand kernel]

or 2060 and 2060 KO

[neat plover]

do u have same product cheaper price

[grand kernel]

or 3080 10gb and 3080 12gb

[upper rain]

no, but that's not terribly relevant

[grand kernel]

rx 580 is above all of rx 9000 combined lol

[neat plover]

ig bro, any other alternative

[heady plinth]

I meant core*s, not die. Or 3060ti, 3070, 3070ti would be same too.

[frigid stag]

oh wow

probably a lot of budget buyers

[upper rain]

they overclock better from stock than the XT bc they're gimped with a low PL. i think of it as a discount XT bc once you push them both the extra CUs don't really net a tremendous difference

[upper rain]

ah, understood

[heady plinth]

Not paying $400 extra for a tuf would be a good idea.

[upper rain]

yes, any 5070 ti that is priced at or below $900

[lone mango]

My 9070 is at -90

[grand kernel]

3050 6gb has 18 SMs, 3050 8gb has 20 SMs, but they're grouped together as 3050

[lone mango]

[ashen swan]

thats a 5070

not a ti

[lone mango]

240w, so it undervolted is probably faster than a reference xt

[upper rain]

https://www.newegg.com/asus-prime-rtx5070ti-16g-geforce-rtx-5070-ti-16gb-graphics-card-triple-fans/p/N82E16814126757?

you save close to $700 and get 10% lower performance

[lone mango]

I have it at 200w and it matches the 240w at stock values

[leaden pewter]

Also spent months wondering if my partners 13400f might’ve been updated a bit too late cause we kept having instability in every game because cpu kept getting pinned until I found out he had amd anti-lag which ate through his cpu like it was nothing, we spent months wondering if his 7700xt was too much or if his cpu had corroded

[grand kernel]

i would say the rx 6600 is more similar to the rx 6650xt than the rtx 3050 6gb is to the rtx 3050 8gb

[neat plover]

yo this is actualy not bada

[grand kernel]

the 13400f shouldn't be subject to the instability issues at all, it's not even a raptor lake chip

[upper rain]

this one is $850 but doesn't come with free game (bc open box)

https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-windforce-gv-n507twf3-16gd-geforce-rtx-5070-ti-16gb-video-cards-triple-fans/p/1FT-000A-008X9

[heady plinth]

Which isn't a good idea for them. 1060 would be another one where the have the same name for a 3, 5 or 6 gb version. 580 had the 2048sp or whatever it was called too which might get lumped in.

[grand kernel]

oh wait, misremembered

[leaden pewter]

Wasn’t the issue across the 13-14th gen

[grand kernel]

13400F has two different steppings, one of which is alder lake and one of which is raptor lake

[neat plover]

u got any ethusiast items for cpu, mobo, and ram? u just saved me a thousand dollar, while so i am still reconsidering but yea

[upper rain]

13400f is alder lake

[grand kernel]

yes but only the higher end stuff

[leaden pewter]

12th gen is alder lake

[upper rain]

so is 13400f

[grand kernel]

the issue is caused by voltage requests being too high

13400f is not requesting high voltages

[upper rain]

a lot of low end 13/14 gen is alderlake

iirc i5 K SKU up is RPL, the non K i5's and lower are ADL

probably a few exceptions

13400f is literally just a locked 12600k for example

[grand kernel]

i5-13400f max boost is 4.6ghz
i9-13900k max boost is 5.8ghz stock

[heady plinth]

13400f and 14400f had B0 and C0 models. They supposedly aren't very different for perofrmance though.

[grand kernel]

there is a raptor lake stepping for 13400f but you have no idea which one you're going to get

either way there's no real difference

[tranquil pebble]

craptor lake

[upper rain]

interesting. that should have measurably better performance since RPL has a much larger l2 cache

[heady plinth]

Even the unlocked i5s were pretty unlikely to run into the problem though.

[grand kernel]

🤨

[upper rain]

kinda depends on silicon quality. the i7's were hit hardest because they were crap bin i9's so they had to request a toooon of voltage to hit advertised clocks. i'd be willing to wager a lot of 13600k's are even crappier i7's requesting too much voltage for their clocks too

[leaden pewter]

We saw cpu being pinned even in games like phasmophobia, arc raiders, at 1080p low- medium settings and weren’t even getting about 100fps and then performance kept dropping significantly and stuttering

[upper rain]

a lot of i5's have problems, but whether it's disproportional to how many were sold vs i7 and i9 i have no idea

[grand kernel]

i don't think it was enabled on the RPL 13400f

[upper rain]

ew, gross. that's Nvidia level segmenting

[grand kernel]

at the very least, intel ark shows same L2 for 13400f and 12600k

and intel ark is claiming 13400f is raptor lake so i assume the specs on there are for the raptor lake stepping

[grand kernel]

ah yes, flashbacks to my 13700k wanting 400w at stock

[upper rain]

raptorlake is the codename, ig i should have been more clear. it uses Golden Cove P cores

[heady plinth]

Cove isn't the same as lake. They are all raptor lake because they're 13th gen.

[upper rain]

as opposed to Raptor Cove

[grand kernel]

🙃

fun naming

[leaden pewter]

9950x3d so good they had to make a sequel

[grand kernel]

rx 580 and rx 580 2048sp are separate listings on steam hardware survey

interesting

would expect them to be grouped together given how they treat nvidia cards

[upper rain]

exactly. raptorlake (generation codename) CPU using Golden Cove (core design codename) cores

as opposed to 'real' RPL which uses raptor cove

[lunar bobcat]

i love it when something doesnt install

[upper rain]

both use gracemont E cores

[lunar bobcat]

[upper rain]

steam hardware survey is weird

[grand kernel]

not a single rx 9000 card is even on the list 😔

[lunar bobcat]

im using a rx9070 too im shocked its not on there

[upper rain]

which is bizarre because all indications seem to be that Navi48 is selling far better than GB203, and both 5070 ti and 5080 are listed above 9070/xt

[grand kernel]

my guess is that radeon might be doing well in diy market

[upper rain]

i had a 9070 for a while, great card. just got another for my brother in law

[grand kernel]

but as usual diy market is completely irrelevant compared to prebuilts

[heady plinth]

Selling better diy but not in prebuilts, yeah that would be my thought too.

[grand kernel]

i still rarely see prebuilts with radeon

[upper rain]

that is the argument, but i doubt that it's so much bigger that minimum 80% greater sales in DIY wouldn't at minimum balance the scales

[grand kernel]

well...

[upper rain]

how many people are dropping $2500 on an acer prebuilt with a 5060 ti in this economy?

[grand kernel]

the prebuilt segment might be 100x the size of the diy segment

most of them, as soon as you leave the bubble you're in

💀

[upper rain]

most of the normies i know buy dells without GPUs lol

which is remarkable because Intel iGPU is also really low on the list

[heady plinth]

Alienware, ibuypower, abs, cyberpower, etc... sell a lot of computers.

[upper rain]

which you wouldn't expect

[grand kernel]

i mean... normies that care enough to buy a gaming pc

[upper rain]

oh, i mean to imply that they think they're buying a gaming pc lol

[grand kernel]

though there are quite a few non gaming pcs/laptops that bundle an nvidia xx50 gpu for whatever reason

[upper rain]

they just look at the i5/i7 badge and then complain when it only plays minecraft

[heady plinth]

It's steam though. It's not the microsoft outlook hardware survey.

[grand kernel]

i mean... i don't think steam is something you have to be knowledgeable about pcs to be on

the same people buying a dell with no gpu for gaming are probably still on steam

[ashen swan]

someone is selling a 2080 at the same price as a 3080

[heady plinth]

I don't think there are many of those. Maybe the light gaming laptop crowd or the epic games launcher and roblox crowd.

[ashen swan]

[neat plover]

how much the pc shown in this discord banner bro

[ashen swan]

smt like that yes

[upper rain]

if you plan on hanging on to your CPU for 5 or more years, 270k plus. if you plan to upgrade sooner than that, 9900x. the former is a better CPU in most respects, the latter has a better upgrade path

[unborn wind]

I love how no one in comments picked up that bros cpu is 53c with AIO in bios

[velvet summit]

its not that strange

idle temps depend on fan curves

loop could have been preheated since they may have had the pc on for a while

or maybe they didnt plug in the pump

but they'll notice it pretty quickly when they start actually doing anything

[unborn wind]

Yeah

[grand kernel]

53c in bios is completely normal for ryzen cpu

[upper rain]

modern CPUs are also really hard to keep at low temps even at idle, they're really quite dense and IHSs make it even more of a problem

[rancid juniper]

you got your vram clocks finalized now?

now i'm just leaving it running cyberpunk torture test at -70mV while i play a switch game instead lol

[rancid juniper]

almost aggressive uv for a game

[lone mango]

There is a sustained load put on the cpu in the uefi combined with no power management from the os

Equals high boost on probably a single core given the high voltage

Which is why the temperature is elevated but not high

[grand kernel]

optimal overclocking setup

[pseudo raven]

are you left handed

[grand kernel]

no

[pseudo raven]

ok it looks like you have no mouse pad space to me but

maybe you just keep your keyboard more to the side than I do

[grand kernel]

i have like

12 inches of space for my mouse?

[lone mango]

Ah

[grand kernel]

i am a 2400 DPI gamer so 12 inches is overkill

[lone mango]

You have the keyboard across the desk

[grand kernel]

not really

it's slightly left of center of the main monitor

i have a vertical monitor to the left

[lone mango]

I forgot how much 2400 is

I was thinking of 1200

Understandable then

[pseudo raven]

I keep my keyboard in line with my monitors left edge almost

and then my mouse goes off to the right

[grand kernel]

2400 DPI means i can move 28800 pixels in 12 inches of space

which is uhh

[pseudo raven]

yeah I use 600 dpi

lol

[lone mango]

Same

[grand kernel]

almost 8x what i actually need

for 1200x1920 and 2560x1440

[lone mango]

Im either 550-600 I forgot

[pseudo raven]

you only really need low dpi if you play shooters

i really don't anymore but

I'm used to it already

[grand kernel]

i would need a minimum of 1.6 inches of mouse space for my setup

so 139g

[pseudo raven]

5 times the weight of my mouse

damn near

[grand kernel]

wtf

your mouse is 28g?

[pseudo raven]

yes

[grand kernel]

🤨

[pseudo raven]

well technically right now my mouse is 39g

sora v2

but I'm getting one tomorrow that is 28g

https://shop.g-wolves.com/products/lycan-8k-wireless-mouse

[grand kernel]

bro my keyboard switch actuation force is 2x your mouse weight

[pseudo raven]

💀

[lunar bobcat]

question for the peanut gallery....how do i install gpu drivers on linux for amd gpu's

[grand kernel]

55g actuation 63.5g bottom out

which linux

[pseudo raven]

Ok wtf

Heavy ass switches

[grand kernel]

i only know about arch

[languid drum]

Good evening

[lunar bobcat]

catchy uses arch

[pseudo raven]

I think my keyboard is like 35g

[grand kernel]

if it's arch you don't need to install them

they are installed automatically

[lunar bobcat]

thanks

wanted to make sure

[pseudo raven]

I don't know why I even buy new mouse still

Purely for the love of the game I think

[grand kernel]

lol i been using the same mouse for like 10 years

[pseudo raven]

i haven't used a mouse longer than about two years

[grand kernel]

it's showing a lot of physical wear but it still does what i want it to do

[pseudo raven]

and it's never because it's broken

[grand kernel]

think i built this keyboard 5 years ago? still fine

[pseudo raven]

yeah keyboard wise I'm sticking to mine for a while

it's already basically the best I can get I think

boog75

[grand kernel]

i mean you upgrade mouse every 2 years

i used to upgrade pc hardware every 2 months

it is what it is

[pseudo raven]

you see there's some innovation in mice at least

every couple of months the weight drops a bit

[grand kernel]

i like heavy

💀

[pseudo raven]

I started with an 80g mouse, went down to 70g, 60g, 50g, 39g and now 28g

[pseudo raven]

yeah you and most people

sheeple

[lunar bobcat]

Nasa needs some gaming pc's keep all the screens and have less keyboards and mice on the desks lmao

[grand kernel]

120g is too light

i'm not sorry

[elfin mural]

i don't care how light or heavy my mouse is tbh

i just want something that actually lasts in terms of switches

double clicking is annoying

[worn night]

when friend groups fight its hilariously chaotic

[grand kernel]

people say logitech mice die fast by design

cause they use wrong voltage on the switches to make them die faster

but i have not been kind to this mouse and it refuses to die so idk

[dusk knot]

my G pro wirless died in about 3 years

[grand kernel]

yeah this g502 going strong after 10+ years

[pseudo raven]

yeah g pros have somewhat shoddy build quality

[elfin mural]

older logi was better

[random osprey]

my gpro superlight only has some slight double clicking issues and sensor/tracking issues on some mousepads

[queen briar]

dude, this is exactly how my co worker sounded today

[upper rain]

i've been using the same logitech for four years with no signs of trouble. idk

[elfin mural]

my g304 double clicks intermittently

the scroll wheel is a bit wonky

[pseudo raven]

i use my artisan mousepad at school now

[grand kernel]

honestly i'd expect my next mouse to last 10+ years too so maybe i'll be disappointed

[queen briar]

he said he cant get into PC gaming cause he likes the haptic feedback on the controller

[upper rain]

i love my g300s... they don't make them anymore. i had to buy an open box one off of ebay when my original died

[pseudo raven]

because I like the razer pro glide better for actual use

[queen briar]

i told him if he wants something that vibrates, ill get him a little somethign something. they have vibrating gaming chairs now. dude couldnt stop laughing.

[pseudo raven]

so it was collecting dust at home

slightly funny because most people that see it every day have no idea I wasted 40 dollars on it

[queen briar]

you a CPU tweaker. i gota a small questionario

[random osprey]

my mom looking at my mousepad stack thinking theyre each $10-$30 each

[pseudo raven]

are you into iems too by the way?

don't remember if you are

but I bought this $8 Samsung wired pair and it's genuinely mind-blowing

[grand kernel]

i have moondrop variations

[random osprey]

not super like i was with mice/mousepads. i have had 2 pairs of moondrop aria's, chu's chu II's, i have the truthear x crin red and truthear x crin zero2 rn

[pseudo raven]

and my baseline is quite literally 400 dollar xenn tea pros

[elfin mural]

i have come to dislike iems because they're so much hassle to fit right in my ears

the sound profile can sound different depending on the way i put em in

[pseudo raven]

yeah it's hard to find a good fit sometimes

but I think they're a pretty good value for the sound quality you get

[queen briar]

its there a brand that make ear buds that fit to your ear

[grand kernel]

are you gonna ask your question 💀

[queen briar]

the ear piece comes off and if you put it in warm water, itll be maluable

[pseudo raven]

yeah when I win the lottery thats the first thing I'm buying

or maybe like

#4

[elfin mural]

im not interested in custom brands, they tend to be hella expensive

[queen briar]

oh, i didnt know you meant me 🙂

[elfin mural]

i just solve the issue by using headphones

[grand kernel]

if you have a question just ask don't make me ask you to ask your question

[pseudo raven]

there's companies that take hearing aid scans

[queen briar]

so I was browsing online earlier and some dude was asking how to get win11 to work on his pentium 4

[pseudo raven]

and then make custom iems for you based off them

[queen briar]

i thought you were ignoring me 😭

[grand kernel]

well first of all why

[pseudo raven]

like 64audio

[queen briar]

not sure, but someone replied to him with instructions how to get win11 to work on it

but like... pentium 4 is a 32 bit processor, no?

[grand kernel]

no

[queen briar]

oh, then im wrong

[grand kernel]

there are a lot of cpus named pentium 4

the original pentium 4s (willamette) were 32 bit yes

64-bit support was added somewhere in the prescott era

[elfin mural]

p4 is quite a huge lineup spanning into 2006 iirc

[grand kernel]

there were 7 generations of pentium 4s

[opaque sedge]

Guys… https://www.newegg.com/sudokoo-sk700-v-amazon-sk700-v-120mm-amd-socket-am5/p/13C-012U-00001

Should i bite

[frigid stag]

Jk

[elfin mural]

lga 775 has many variants and chipsets

[grand kernel]

willamette, northwood, gallatin xe, prescott, prescott 2m, prescott 2m xe, cedar mill

[opaque sedge]

It looks pretty cool tho

[queen briar]

oh, alright

[elfin mural]

and yeah you can't plop in a c2d into a board made for early pentium 4

despite it bring 775 socket

[frigid stag]

Eh only single tower tho

[heady plinth]

Is that like the old ak500?

[opaque sedge]

High performance single tower

Gamersnexus covered it

[grand kernel]

pentium 4 went from 180nm and 1.4ghz to 65nm and 3.6ghz with HT

[opaque sedge]

And its uh deepcool’s single tower cooler

[grand kernel]

of course none of them are officially supported by windows 11 but with some modification you should be able to get it running on any of the 64-bit ones

you definitely shouldn't... but you can do it

[dusk knot]

only 60 bucks. doenst hurt to buy

[elfin mural]

don't think it would even boot win 11 due to the lack of cpu instructions required

[opaque sedge]

Only other aesthetically pleasing air cooler with screen option is this https://a.co/d/073Ttrm8

Which is mega expensive

And only 6 heatpipes but given how thicc it is prolly doesn’t matter

[grand kernel]

at the very least there's proof of it running on cedar mill

[elfin mural]

interesting

[opaque sedge]

Ik that thing would up my pc’s aesthetics easily

[elfin mural]

ah it has SSE3

[frigid stag]

How slow is it tho

[elfin mural]

that's why it works

[frigid stag]

U can get aio for that much tbh

[dusk knot]

you got a clear photo?

[opaque sedge]

For 60 bucks or 130?

[frigid stag]

60

[opaque sedge]

I dont trust aios

Cuz of my 5080
