[frigid jackal]

in the h510 case

[shrewd charm]

Ya probably for the best I'm going to buy that stuff you all suggested and get a longer better extension cord

[mossy venture]

Yeah the s12iii is a very bad psu

Like, catch fire bad

[little osprey]

NZXT moment

[frigid jackal]

damn lol

[mossy venture]

I would replace that asap

[frigid jackal]

but yeah my pc died for like 5 minutes and I just waited with it off

[shrewd charm]

lol ya I was warned off these too

[dusty cedar]

you can get some decent ones from amazon for cheap. maybe a 12 or 14g would be better for your usage. just look up on amazon 12/3 or 14/3 extension cables. a 10/3 would be your best bet though with 3 monitors

[frigid jackal]

honestly im not too sure if that's even the one in my pc anymore

[mossy venture]

I would check

[frigid jackal]

they reaplced it twice in thes pan of like 12 months

[mossy venture]

Bc if it is, replace it

[sullen spoke]

It's a Tier E on the list. Apparently lacking OCP

[frigid jackal]

for sure

kinda crazy I had this thing for 3 years lmfao

[mossy venture]

Which is a very bad thing

[frigid jackal]

glad it hasn't caught yet but I will rpelace it

[mossy venture]

What gpu and cpu does the pc have?

[sullen spoke]

don't have to go crazy but here is the list we often use for reference. They have footnotes on a lot of units https://cultists.network/140/psu-tier-list/

[mossy venture]

I'm assuming low power so they haven't put a huge load on psu

[frigid jackal]

I have a 2060 and i5-9400f

[mossy venture]

Yeah pretty low power usages, probably whole pc doesn't use over 250w at max load

[frigid jackal]

still gonna replace it

kinda crazy bc

they said they'd send an emal if something changed

and then they changed their entire line of prebuilts and never emailed me about it or the psu

[sullen spoke]

it's kinda funny to read some of the notes on f tier psus

https://i.imgur.com/AeVAgwg.png

[mossy venture]

Do you have any idea of how much you'd want to spend on one?

[mossy venture]

Lol I haven't read through it

[frigid jackal]

I'm poor asf but I could probably spend $150 maybe

that's if I don't get an upgrade for my ram or anything

[mossy venture]

I'll find you one well under that

Do you plan to upgrade gpu anytime soon?

[frigid jackal]

and I def think I can live comfortably without upgrading the ram

[frigid jackal]

not really

it's held up with any gpu intensive games I've played

[mossy venture]

Kk then, one min

Oh one more question

[frigid jackal]

yea

[mossy venture]

Would you be able to sell the sticks of ram you have?

[frigid jackal]

yeah

[mossy venture]

If not you'd have to check compatibility between that kit and any kit you buy

Ok one sec

[frigid jackal]

I've sold a couple of stuff on craigslist before

or the other one

I forgot

[little osprey]

What’s the most I should be paying for a used 3070 Ti?

[mossy venture]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/rKgwGL

[frigid jackal]

oh dang lol

[mossy venture]

350

[frigid jackal]

only $100?

[mossy venture]

Imo

[mossy venture]

Could go for a better psu if you wanted to but that'll be more than fine with a 2060

[frigid jackal]

ok wait idk cause I don't think you've seen the rest of my build maybe

this

[mossy venture]

?

[frigid jackal]

idk like may something isnt compatible with the motherboard

[mossy venture]

Yeah those two are a good fit

[frigid jackal]

oh bet

thank you

imma save that 🙏

[mossy venture]

Happy to

Make sure you change out all thr cables from thr old psu

[frigid jackal]

lol I thought it was gonna be like $200 to upgrade both because of amazon

[mossy venture]

They aren't interchangeable

(If they're both even modular or semi modular, I didn't check or know)

[frigid jackal]

oh lol alright

[mossy venture]

Nah ram is pretty cheap now

Ddr4 anyways

[frigid jackal]

ill double check or something

[little osprey]

I’m seeing them around $360-$370, but unsure if the price is worth the performance in return

[mossy venture]

Modular/semi modular/non modular means if the cables are all unpluggable or part of the psu, if some of them are, or if none of them are

Modular is the most ideal one normally, but meh

To me it's irrelevant but others care to some extent

[dusty cedar]

modular is better. use only the cables you need. less case cable spaghetti

[mossy venture]

Yeah thats the main argument

For me I just don't care but I can definitely understand

[dusty cedar]

even with that being the case for cable managment. i just stuffed my cables wherever they would fit and not be seen and doesn't block airflow anyways so idc.

[little osprey]

@mossy venture, any major difference between these models?

[dusty cedar]

speakin of power issues people having today. here comes the lighting and thunder.

[mossy venture]

Meh, I doubt it aside from looks

Alright its late, I'm out

G'night everyone

[shrewd charm]

@dusty cedar ok ill just search 10/3 extension cables on amazon

[frigid night]

That Apevia is not modular. I thought it was, but when I got it and realized I had to super cable manage I was like blehhhh

[verbal plover]

Helped my friend build his first pc he got the Spider-Man 4070 ti we don’t know if it works yet 💀

[verbal plover]

It worked but it is now 12:01 am and I wake up in 5 hours for work and I still gotta download drivers

[dim forge]

should I sell my 2060 and get a 6600?

[desert gulch]

Not a huge upgrade honestly

[little osprey]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/pMFGsL

Good list for the price?

[runic spruce]

I’d downgrade to a non ti then try getting cheaper ram

And also changing the psu to an enermax one

Or any other one, besides that it’s decent

[little osprey]

PSU is an A-tier 850W fully modular for $85

I really can't complain there

Also for the RAM like the cheapest it's gonna get is like $70 but I wanted the RGB

Another thing I'd not is if I got the non-Ti I'm pretty sure it'd age worse and lose it's value quicker

[obsidian wigeon]

enermax has no good psu this cheap rn

[fossil cedar]

3070ti are very close in perf neither is gonna age better

[little osprey]

Hmmmm

Well I went to check listings and non-OEM cards sit around $275 instead of $375 or whatever

Bro what happened here and why is it listed as still working

[earnest olive]

might be a rather extreme case of thermal pad oil

[dusky hearth]

Goddam that's like a whole bottle of oil

[cyan ravine]

I can't believe it's not butter

[dusky hearth]

[dim forge]

is this normal with stock cooler? weather temp is 33°C

on load it reaches like 75°C

[dusky hearth]

Pretty typical

75 is fairly cool still, thermal throttling is at 85c for amd or smth?

And like

90 for intel

[dim forge]

It's just that I moved from a very cold city to a hot one

and temps kinda raised a bit so I was worried

[dusky hearth]

You don't need to worry unless your temps are like 90 at idle

Or thermal throttling allt

[wheat coral]

you can go cheaper than that

my a tier modular 650w was 32$

[little osprey]

Wait FR?

Where?

[dusky hearth]

💀

[little osprey]

Wait wait wait

Oh wait it is modular

[wheat coral]

read

fully modular lmao

[dusky hearth]

💀

[little osprey]

You said it was an EVGA PSU right?

[wheat coral]

650 G2

[little osprey]

650W is enough for a 12600K and 3070 Ti?

And some RGB

[wheat coral]

probably

this psu handled a 500w 1080 so

[desert gulch]

You went back to EVGA after last time????

[wheat coral]

for 32 dollas hell yeah

[little osprey]

I can't find a new one

[wheat coral]

uh just look around on ebay for a tier units lol

[little osprey]

I ain't gonna cheap out on the PSU of all things

[wheat coral]

its not cheaping out if the unit is still good lol

[desert gulch]

That's what you said when you bought the b5

[wheat coral]

yeah but the b5 was c tier

[dusky hearth]

Used psus are fine just as long as somebody didn't modify it

[wheat coral]

my g2 has warranty still

for another 3 years or something

and it got transferred to me

[mossy venture]

Plenty

I ran a 6800xt pulling 310w on an rmx 650

[little osprey]

Ehh doesn’t matter much now since I can’t find the PSU

Thought it looks to be like a five year old model at this point though

[mossy venture]

I mean you don't need that specific psu

[little osprey]

We’ll they said it was cheap, A tier, and fully modular

[little osprey]

Hey I'm just now seeing this....

So how do I do this? In the BIOS right?

I don't mind the noise much since I have loud headphones.....as long as the temp stays lower then that's fine. Although since you bring that up, won't it heat something up since the fans will get loud?

[mossy venture]

There's plenty of fully modular A tier psus, but most of them are not well priced right now

[stoic island]

In the bios, different specific locations depending on board

[stoic island]

The heat always has to go somewhere, if you don't get the heat out of the PC, the PC will stay hot and slowly radiate heat into the room, if you get heat out of the PC, that heat goes into the room faster and heats up the room faster.

[little osprey]

But will it keep the PC cooler

[stoic island]

Yes

[little osprey]

perfect

[little osprey]

Yeah, at the time being I have my eyes on the FSB Hydro G

Also looking at the prices on eBay would you say a 3070 Ti or 3070 is better?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/155115215494?

I’ve been thinking something like this

[mortal rampart]

do i need to uninstall anything on my boot drive if im switching motherboards and cpus?

[jagged ember]

You would need to do a clean install tbh

Or else you'll have stability issues and other issues having swapped to a new mobo and CPU

[little osprey]

If you're swapping a the CPU and motherboard, yes a clean install would be recommended

[mossy venture]

Whichever you can find for cheaper

Theyre near identical

And if you don't need nvidia, look at 6800/xt too

[little osprey]

Soooo, should I not be following this list?

[mossy venture]

The 3070 ti is better, sure

But by like 2%

[little osprey]

Hmmmm

[mossy venture]

Tbh personally I'd look for 3060 ti, 6700xt, 6750xt, 6800/xt

[little osprey]

Probably doesn't make the extra $50-$70 for a Ti version worth it

[little osprey]

3060 Ti and 12600K sound fine?

[mossy venture]

Definitely not

Sure, especially if you're at 1080p

Im running 13600k and 3060 ti at 1440p at the moment

Will upgrade gpu whenever I feel the need to

[little osprey]

I wanna do 1440p sometime in the future

Unsure whenever that's gonna be

[mossy venture]

Might be able to find a $350-400 6800xt, that'll handle 1440p like a champ

Rivals the 3090 with the driver updates now in a good few titles

[little osprey]

I'm positive it'll beat my 5700 in 1080p

Are all 3060 Ti's dual fan?

[mossy venture]

No

Dual fan is fine on it tho

Same with 3070

Just not ventus 2x on 3070 imo

It'll be OK enough on 3060 ti, not ideal but it'll work

[little osprey]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/185889126027

This a reasonable price?

$280 and free shipping

[mossy venture]

$320 for a new 3060 ti so I'd aim for$250

[little osprey]

Will do

https://www.ebay.com/itm/275909131017

Cheapest I'm seeing that isn't OEM

[mossy venture]

Ventus 2x worst model, id say like$230 for that one

Do you need nvidia?

[little osprey]

50/50

I would really prefer it for my older games

Because on games like Metro: Last Night it just spasms out on AMD GPU's

[mossy venture]

Ah ok

Could also look at 2080 super and ti

[little osprey]

How long would those last in terms of age?

[mossy venture]

Just as long as any other gpu, I'd just avoid early revisions

A lot of the earlier ones had power issues I believe

[little osprey]

Alright I'll keep an eye out

And holy crap I just realized 2080 Ti is 3070 level

That's kinda cool

[mossy venture]

Yep it's nice

[little osprey]

https://www.ebay.com/itm/145144508062

Looks clean enough but I'm curious if I can find one cheaper

Yeah seems as cheap as I'm gonna get for a non-blower card

[mossy venture]

Idk, I would take a 3070 at that price over it

Oem 3080s might be within your price range

Will run hot but will obviously be better

[little osprey]

Lemmie go check that out RQ

@mossy venture https://www.ebay.com/itm/225622225625

3080 for $380?

Otherwise I'm thinking 2080 Super possibly

https://www.ebay.com/itm/275906841940

$250

[mossy venture]

That's nice

[little osprey]

TBH yeah

Am I insane or is it supposed to look like this? (Top left)

Also would I be out of my mind running a 12600K and 2080 Super since the CPU is newer?

[mossy venture]

Nah

2080s=3060 ti

[mossy venture]

Not a clue

Google the model

[little osprey]

https://www.gigabyte.com/Graphics-Card/GV-N3080GAMING-OC-10GD-rev-10#kf

I guess so apparently

That's really weird

[dusky hearth]

the usbc charger

[dusky hearth]

yeah looks about right

[little osprey]

Improvise

Adapt

Overcome

[dusky hearth]

the gpu can rest just as well without it

lmfao

[mortal rampart]

or should i just get windows 11

[potent portal]

No need to "get" 11. It's a free upgrade from 10.

It'll be able to retrieve and upgrade your license from the activation troubleshooter once you install 11.

[manic cloak]

grade D

basically it has a grading selection and so from the looks of it, some kid prolly bit a chunk out of their GPU, sent it there and they're reselling it

[little osprey]

Yeah I read that section over

Apparently the card is supposed to look like that

[runic spruce]

Bottlenecks don’t really matter as long as your game/applications runs how u want it

[mortal rampart]

It works???

idk how

but i didnt do a reinstall

[unique rapids]

Is it safe to buy Peladn GPUs? Never heard of them but they have cheap $120 5500xt.

[obsidian wigeon]

$120 for 5500xt is trash price lol

Peladn is fine

But don't pay $120 for a 5500xt

Because if you look at ebay for a moment, 5700xt goes for $100-120 these days

Used yes but these are prices from reputable sellers

[potent portal]

Make sure to uninstall the old chipset drivers and install the new ones. And do benchmarks to make sure you're getting close to expected CPU performance. A common issue when platform changing is unexpectedly low scores.

If everything is working how it should and you get expected performance, then you're good to go.

It's generally "recommended" to do a reinstall, simply to avoid the potential of problems now or later.

[potent portal]

To reinforce this point: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=5700+xt&_sacat=0&LH_ItemCondition=2000|2500|3000|1500&LH_All=1&_sop=1&rt=nc&LH_Complete=1

[potent portal]

You can try bidding on this one, ends in 7 hours and I'd expect it to sell at a little over $100. Maybe less thanks to shipping.
Judging from the number of 5700 XT cards the guy sold he's probably a miner, but everyone is reporting that they work correctly.

[tawny violet]

the PC I got is now officially in delivery

the one with specs in nickname

I'm HYPED beyond belief

it's here in roughly an hour

wish me luck to not have any damage in shipping

[jagged ember]

Recommended, not that it'll break windows but it might come up with weird issues during use

[little osprey]

It will work technically but there’s gonna be instability issues

But as far as reading what the others said it seems they’ve already helped you

[little osprey]

Wasn’t really looking at it from the bottleneck perspective per say

It’s just supposed to be a gaming orientated build and having a GPU from 2019 and a CPU from 2021 seems weird

[dusky hearth]

..........

I have a 3700x with a rx570

2019 cpu and 2017 gpu lmao

[cyan ravine]

The goat

[earnest olive]

no bottlenecks here no sir

cpu usage is definitely not at 3%

[fossil cedar]

this is fine

[fossil cedar]

me with my 13600k effectively running 720p

[earnest olive]

igpu gaming

@fossil cedar did i tell you

the highest cpu power draw i ever saw in gaming was in genshin

360 watts

it hit that in loading screen when i was testing igpu gaming

[fossil cedar]

holy crap

[earnest olive]

they must have optimized the loading extremely well or something? since igpu uses system memory as vram buffer

I guess it hit that from hammering the whole cpu to load data into ram

[unborn mesa]

Is there a way for me to use my windows 10 key for windows 11?

[vague oracle]

Can’t beat my combo tho, 3700x with a Quadro FX3800

2019 cpu, 2009 gpu

[vivid zinc]

Just got a 3060 ti for $200 and it's money well spent.
Works like a dream

[late fjord]

Should I build a home server? Is it worth it or too much of a headache? I was given a HAF XB Evo case and wanted to do something with it.

[little osprey]

It depends on your use for it

[late fjord]

I guess I would probably use it mostly for photo video storage. Would like to ditch paying for cloud storage.

[little osprey]

So NAS

Are GPU custom loops hard?

This is $30 after the promo code

[obsidian wigeon]

you ain't even building a pc yet but you're getting waterblock

bruh

your build gonna keep getting expensive

[little osprey]

Hm?

I haven’t ordered it or have no interest in it if it’s gonna be hard

Just looked a fun project

[obsidian wigeon]

It's probably not that hard, but it will add up fast

You'll have to get a rad, pump, reservoir, tubes, fittings and coolant

Min 400+

[little osprey]

Ouch

[obsidian wigeon]

That's excluding cost of paste and thermal pads for gpu

[little osprey]

Okay maybe not then

[obsidian wigeon]

Stick with air or aio pretty much

[little osprey]

I already got my air cooler

I still kinda want an AIO though

I would've bought the Liquid Freezer 240mm B-stock if it didn't sell out so fast at $50

[obsidian wigeon]

Probably limited quantity plus demand

b stocks are returns and stuff

Returns that are fixed ofc

[little osprey]

Well yeah

[vague oracle]

It’s expensive AF, it’ll run you about 6-700 just for a GPU only loop

But actually building it, isn’t too difficult but there are a lot of headaches

Rad will be about $100-150, pump another 100, depending on the GPU 150-300, fittings 75, res 100, coolant 40, tubes 50, paste/pads 50

My loop both CPU and GPU ended up being around 1.5k in total

[little osprey]

JESUS CHRIST I COULD BUILD MY DREAM PC FOR THAT PRICE

[paper summit]

Bro

Just because u bought the highest end water cooling parts doesnt mean everyones is gonna cost as much as yours

[vague oracle]

I didn’t buy the highest end stuff tho

[paper summit]

Still

you can do it for much cheaper

[vague oracle]

Depends on the hardware, your biggest cost will be from the gpu waterblock

And a good pump will be around 75-100ish

[manic cloak]

in the end we know waterblocks are expensive asf

or well, custom water cooled stuff is.

If you do Aesthetics > Performance, I don't think you want a pc

[tough shell]

Cyberpunk benchmark running a EVGA 3080 ti on Ray tracing: overdrive (including ray tracing and path tracing). temps are inaccurate for gpu, but more or less accurate for cpu. Not too bad overall imo 🙂

After looking at it, temps for hotspot and memory are +10°C over what precision x1 reads

[earnest olive]

use hwinfo64

hwmonitor bad

[runic spruce]

Hwmonitor is really inaccurate

Was reporting my cpu temps 10-20c below what my cpu actually was

Said my cpu was at 19c one time on an aio in 77f room

[tough shell]

sauce me the legitimate link?

[obsidian wigeon]

hwmonitor likes to glitch out when reporting my laptop's fan speed

[earnest olive]

[obsidian wigeon]

True

[earnest olive]

hwmonitor is incompatible with existing

[potent portal]

I had hwmonitor report my Ryzen 2700 was using 400A at idle

Just go with the us server

[tough shell]

stronk CPU

[earnest olive]

I saw hwmonitor reporting a 2700x at 6.8 million C idle

[tough shell]

even tho in Canada?

kk

[earnest olive]

lowest ryzen idle temperature

[runic spruce]

Or Canada

Just do whatever is closest to u but it doesn’t really matter

[dusky hearth]

only reason why you would want custom loop is for specific applications (certain datacenter configurations, being able to pipe the heat to a different location, have the ability to have insane cooling capacity)

otherwise, air cooling is better in basically every other way; it's way more reliable

[earnest olive]

it's like a 3 byte download who cares if it's from the US

[dusky hearth]

only (cooling related) thing that would fail in an air cooled system is the fans basically

[tough shell]

yeah imma swap back to a fan when my pump breaks

[tough shell]

takes me 23 seconds according to download window xD

[earnest olive]

if you are still bad after getting better internet then it's your cpu's fault

just find something else to blame

it's the league of legends way

I hit plat 4 in league when I was still at school so thats kinda nice 😄

[earnest olive]

never blame yourself

I have friends who are currently stuck in iron 4 and 3 xD

[earnest olive]

they probably just need a cpu upgrade

[tough shell]

LOL

or a better chair

[earnest olive]

maybe they need to overclock their ram

[potent portal]

Need a 25k gaming mouse

[earnest olive]

need more rgb

I went from d1 on a craptop getting 25 fps on a 60hz screen to gm with 165 fps on a 165hz screen

see it works

just upgrade hardware and it makes you better at the game

[tough shell]

Here's a question for ya, it says CPU #0 - Active Clock in HwInfo, but my clock ratio keeps dropping down from a range of x42-x48, to x8. is this a bug in hwinfo?

[earnest olive]

no its just going idle

that's a good thing

[tough shell]

kk

[potent portal]

480Hz+ monitor or ur bad

[earnest olive]

you just didn't see it in hwmonitor because hwmonitor suck

[earnest olive]

league actually becomes unplayable above 300 fps

[tough shell]

Everything here good?

No bigger number good

[earnest olive]

no you need to overclock your ram or else you're not a real gamer

What is VMX?

[earnest olive]

you would hit challenger if you were running 4600c10

this is completely serious btw

[tough shell]

this is a "HOLD MY BEER AND WATCH THIS" moment

[obsidian wigeon]

Definitely not gonna explode

[earnest olive]

you can run b-die at above 2v no problem

[potent portal]

I've pushed 1.85v through my memory. Stock is 1.2v, XMP is 1.55v

[obsidian wigeon]

Above 2v bdie

[earnest olive]

my ram kit ran at 2.2v

[obsidian wigeon]

Does it not care about volts

But dies when temp gets high

[potent portal]

As long as it's cold it just does not care

[earnest olive]

as long as you can cool it you can volt it

[obsidian wigeon]

lol

b-die moment

No wonder it's popular

[earnest olive]

2.2v under water for optimal league of legends gaming experience

And it will scale the whole way up there too

[tough shell]

RN my cpu is at 1.3V, memory is at 1.2, except for my one that says xmp which is at 1.35

[earnest olive]

water cool your ram it will make you better at the game

[obsidian wigeon]

Immersion cooling

[potent portal]

Need $2k custom loop

[obsidian wigeon]

Dip it in mineral oil or distilled water

[tough shell]

just make sure to wash it while it's powered on, want to make sure you get everything cleaned throughout

[runic spruce]

If u water cool rev e u could just blast the voltage until a capacitor blows up

[potent portal]

Roboclocker
LN2 closed loop

[earnest olive]

I just ripped the capacitors off of my ram before overclocking it

problem solved

[obsidian wigeon]

LN2 closed loop, what kinda pipes do you need for that

[tough shell]

is there a reason VMX is red under "features"?

[tough shell]

^

[runic spruce]

The wireless kind

[earnest olive]

I'm not joking btw

I accidentally ripped off 2 capacitors from some ram while delidding it

[obsidian wigeon]

bruh

[earnest olive]

still overclocked perfectly fine

[obsidian wigeon]

Does it still work

Okay then

[obsidian wigeon]

huh

[leaden mauve]

roboclocker ftw

[earnest olive]

they say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger

surely this applies to ripping capacitors off of your ram too

[obsidian wigeon]

[leaden mauve]

surely

[earnest olive]

oh boy let's see falcie 1v1 me in league

[runic spruce]

Rip the pins off and you’ll get Bluetooth ram

[earnest olive]

I don't believe in bluetooth, can I plug it into my dac/amp?

[obsidian wigeon]

+50ms latency

[earnest olive]

ram to 3.5mm adapter

[obsidian wigeon]

ram to analog

[runic spruce]

Nope

[potent portal]

Only if I get teemo

[earnest olive]

sure

[runic spruce]

Just run command rate 0.5

[obsidian wigeon]

lmao

[earnest olive]

run command rate -1 so your ram travels back in time to run commands

latency problem solved

[potent portal]

Lol I'm terrible at league but I have a lot of fun laying a minefield. I got a triple kill just running away once.

[tough shell]

Zoom zoom

[runic spruce]

Actually putting your ram in a quantum state is slightly more optimal

[earnest olive]

I'm decent at league

[obsidian wigeon]

I just want zen 2 laptop

CO sounds ez and fun to tune

[earnest olive]

not great but decent

[obsidian wigeon]

I wanna uv it while running near stock clocks

[earnest olive]

just top 0.04%, too low to be challenger 😔

[obsidian wigeon]

But maybe I might try lowballing 9750h+1660ti laptop listings

[earnest olive]

lol no CO on mobile

ryzen laptop cpus are so boring

[obsidian wigeon]

You can do it actually

With AATU

[runic spruce]

Those prob don’t matter but u could download evga overclocking software and gpuz for better more organized displays/monitor

[obsidian wigeon]

It's on github

Lets you use CO on amd laptops

[potent portal]

Gesundheit

[earnest olive]

is it not just power limits?

I just googled it and only see it talking about power limits

[obsidian wigeon]

It's a lot more than that

https://github.com/JamesCJ60/Universal-x86-Tuning-Utility

It shifted into this project

With all the goodies

[earnest olive]

interesting

[potent portal]

Will it work on my Turion

[obsidian wigeon]

https://youtu.be/UGHx_Xu8P1Y

[earnest olive]

so these cpus had this capability all along but amd was hiding it

shame, amd

[obsidian wigeon]

In this vid the guy used AATU to tune CO

High clocks lower temps

[earnest olive]

do any ryzen laptops allow ram oc

[obsidian wigeon]

Not sure

Probably not

Unless it's msi? I don't know

No one did it before

[obsidian wigeon]

probably not lmao

[potent portal]

Darn

[obsidian wigeon]

Anything that has CO but hidden however is supported

Zen 2 and above, right?

[potent portal]

Right, zen+ didn't have CO

[obsidian wigeon]

ya

It's only Zen 2 and above

[earnest olive]

idk if I can go back to a laptop that doesn't allow ram oc

ram oc made a night and day difference on my current laptop

[obsidian wigeon]

I never experienced that

Going Ryzen is a benefit for me

[earnest olive]

some games tripled in performance

[obsidian wigeon]

I'm running haswell 4 core

[earnest olive]

valorant went from 180 fps average to 520 fps average

[obsidian wigeon]

Zen 2 6 core is a godsend

And gives me something to mess with

[leaden mauve]

haswell-e

[obsidian wigeon]

But I have non e

[leaden mauve]

[obsidian wigeon]

It's laptop

[earnest olive]

haswell-h

🗿

[obsidian wigeon]

I need an upgrade somehow

Which I see quite a few in my budget

Just couldn't spend yet

Oh all zen 2 and newer mobile cpus does support ocing with the program

But really? cpu ocing in a laptop?

Limited cooling capacity makes cpu ocing pointless, unless ofc you put lm on it

[earnest olive]

sorry I can't hear you over the sound of my all-core oced laptop drawing triple its tdp and making sparking sounds in cinebench

[potent portal]

Bench in the freezer. Works for me.

[obsidian wigeon]

lmao

Imma use the laptop, not have it in freezer

[potent portal]

Sit it right on a bag of ice then

[obsidian wigeon]

I aim to uv cpu with CO and gpu with afterburner

Because thailand has hot as hell climate

An average no rain non cold season day is 30-35c

So I'm already at high ambient temp

[cyan ravine]

You can't touch cpu on ryzen mobile

Pretty sure

[potent portal]

Normally you're right

[cyan ravine]

Wait what's different

[obsidian wigeon]

Normally yes, but now it's possible

[potent portal]

This apparently lets you

[obsidian wigeon]

Scroll up a lil smh

[cyan ravine]

Oh wtf

I should try that

[obsidian wigeon]

Might need to uninstall armoury crate or stuff that messes with power limits

Could clash with the program

[potent portal]

I mean, you should uninstall armoury crate anyway

[obsidian wigeon]

ya

Bloaty crappy software

Openrgb better

I wonder tho does openrgb even work on laptops?

No like the laptops I could get in my budget has rgb anyway

They have fixed color backlight

[potent portal]

Probably does if it has rgb

[cyan ravine]

Armoury crate is unironically good on laptops

It just sucks big time on desktop

[obsidian wigeon]

Hmm

Still I suggest removing it once you're using this program

[cyan ravine]

Cos armoury crate has two neat benefits on laptop

#1 dedicated button

[obsidian wigeon]

It can clash with cpu profile settings

[cyan ravine]

#2 power limit and gpu tweak integrated

[obsidian wigeon]

Not will but has a chance to

[cyan ravine]

It makes mux switching dead easy on mine

So I kinda want it there

If I had another way to switch as easy as that then I would tbh

[obsidian wigeon]

rip

[cyan ravine]

Like I could run, heh, "optimised" (let's the computer decide when to switch) but then I can't guarantee the same performance since the iGPU isn't locked on

[obsidian wigeon]

I'm getting laptops that has useless control softwares lmao

So it doesn't concern me

[cyan ravine]

I mean 4600H shouldn't matter much with OC

[obsidian wigeon]

All tufs with 1650 available here has 10300H or 3550H

Yeah, I just want to uv it with CO

[cyan ravine]

If you have it on a stand, it'll run as fast as it can under tjmax

[obsidian wigeon]

Get the lowest temps

[cyan ravine]

It's already blazing fast

And not gross power

[obsidian wigeon]

ye I just wanna squeeze it as much as I can

Same clocks, less volts

[tough shell]

Fps kinda meh, but considering pretty much everything is maxed out, no OC and no path tracing, I’ll take it. Nice temps too! Used to run 85c on gpu temps on old case.

[obsidian wigeon]

Why no dlss?

[tough shell]

Cant have XeSS with DLSS apparently

[obsidian wigeon]

Well they can't mix

[tough shell]

Does dlss give better perf?

[obsidian wigeon]

Yes

And you have nvidia gpu

Might as well utilize it

[tough shell]

Yeah but cant do frame generation

[obsidian wigeon]

Likely looks better too

[tough shell]

Can do super resolution tho

[obsidian wigeon]

ya that's 40 series thing

[tough shell]

👍🏻

Lets run dis again

[obsidian wigeon]

Maybe have dlaa on too, combo for max clarity

[cyan ravine]

Dlss on cp looks fine

[obsidian wigeon]

It's one of the prime dlss selling games anyway

[tough shell]

Do you know, theres path tracing but the game says its only 4070 or 3090. Why is it selectable for my 3080ti? Does it do anything?

[obsidian wigeon]

Slow as heck on 30 series gpus

Simply lacks the rt cores

Well the newest rt cores anyway

[obsidian wigeon]

The fps would tank into single dogits

[cyan ravine]

3080ti is basically a 3090

[obsidian wigeon]

see it got faster

[tough shell]

Yeh

Even with path tracing on

Xd

[obsidian wigeon]

ye

dlss is sick when you can use it

[tough shell]

Also cant have dlaa and dlss on together ig

On cyberpunk

[obsidian wigeon]

Probably by design

DLSS already does everything DLAA does and more

DLAA is simply for when you don't want DLSS

But want a part of its feature set

idk why it even exists

[tough shell]

Whats the difference? Also now I try with quality preset over ultra performance dlss

[obsidian wigeon]

Quality dlss tries to preserve native quality

Perf increase won't be as big

[tough shell]

20fps with path tracing and quality preset on

[obsidian wigeon]

Called it

[earnest olive]

you should see my 1660ti path tracing

[obsidian wigeon]

How did dlss on ultra quality look btw?

Compared to the fps increase is it worth it to run ultra quality dlss with all the rt eye candies on

[tough shell]

Was too jittery to notice, running it again without path tracing

Also there is no ultra quality xd

Only ultra perf

[obsidian wigeon]

Sorry

[tough shell]

Idk why lol

[obsidian wigeon]

Ultra perf lol

@tawny fiber can I have your old outdated 3080ti

it's trash anyways right you don't need it anymore

I'll help you throw it away

[obsidian wigeon]

away into your pc

[earnest olive]

shhh

[tough shell]

Kills me how you have an old gpu but new cpu haha

[obsidian wigeon]

He had 3090 but sold it

Playing genshin does this to an mf

[earnest olive]

I had a 3090 and my most played games on steam were...

[tough shell]

He’s gotta fund the addiction ig lmao

[earnest olive]

an 8 year old console port (yakuza 0) and a 2d pixel art game (stardew valley)

[tawny fiber]

Selling my 2080ti for 700 helped pay for this gpu

[earnest olive]

nah I don't spend money on genshin

[earnest olive]

bruh

you can get 700 for a 2080ti over there???

[obsidian wigeon]

yep

[earnest olive]

the used market is that bad?

they're 300 here

[tough shell]

Stardew valley is fun but I dont play it solo like most games

[obsidian wigeon]

But 2080ti here only gets me like 300 here

[tawny fiber]

Yes

[earnest olive]

oh definitely lol I do not play stardew alone

[obsidian wigeon]

Thailand's used market is honestly good and bad at the same time

Good for me when I buy

[tough shell]

I cri remembering that I paid $2250 CAD for my 3080ti

[obsidian wigeon]

Bad for when I sell

[tough shell]

[obsidian wigeon]

I had to sell my 1660s pc for $405

cri

[tawny fiber]

There are 2080tis for 450 if you try hard enough here but the the guy paying 700 seemed desperate

[cyan ravine]

Speaking of used gpus I landed a 6900XT for 350

[obsidian wigeon]

nice

Destroys 4090 on Siemens NX

[cyan ravine]

Ya seller took a while but finally they shipped

Nitro+

[obsidian wigeon]

ooo

[cyan ravine]

Ya, a good one

[obsidian wigeon]

gud

[cyan ravine]

[obsidian wigeon]

Good but not bess

OCF bess

jk $350 for nitro+ is a steal still

[earnest olive]

so what are you gonna do with the 3080ti safi? you need help throwing it away?

[cyan ravine]

I'm debating borrowing my friends one as well then trying a day of crossfire benching

[tawny fiber]

Backup if something God forbid happens to this gpu

[obsidian wigeon]

CF still a thing?

[tough shell]

Nice @obsidian wigeon

[obsidian wigeon]

60 at last

[tough shell]

Heh

[cyan ravine]

Eyyy that looks about right

[tough shell]

Is there any other games that have built in benches?

Nice temps at last too

Love this new setup

[obsidian wigeon]

Temps basically matches fps

[tough shell]

My temps used to be 1.5-1.8x my fps

So

(In old phanteks p300 case)

[tawny fiber]

Is that a 4k monitor or are you using some sort of dsr

[tough shell]

Its 4k, but I cant set resolution to 4k otherwise I only get a 30hz refresh rate

So its set to 3840x2160 (native)

[cyan ravine]

That's 4k

[tough shell]

Oh

[cyan ravine]

💀

[obsidian wigeon]

ya

2160p = 4k

[cyan ravine]

I'm glad you see the numbers for what they are tho

Yes, tv's also have 4120p or whatever

[obsidian wigeon]

the k's are just stupid marketing names

[cyan ravine]

1920x1080 is 2k, 2560x1440 is 2.5k

[tough shell]

Then whats the 4k x 2k for?

[cyan ravine]

Oh I have that monitor

LOL

[tough shell]

XD

[cyan ravine]

Yeah that one you selected is right, don't worry about the other ones

Funny EDID numbers

[tough shell]

Im hoping to get matching 4k 144hz monitors once I get a job

[obsidian wigeon]

My phone runs 1440p but it can play 2160p videos

[tough shell]

Burn some of that adult money

[obsidian wigeon]

Just at 30 fps

[earnest olive]

time to run salad on the 3080ti

[obsidian wigeon]

Anything lower is 60

[cyan ravine]

I used to use the U28E590 for xbox games

Man that was aaagggeeessss ago

[obsidian wigeon]

I gave up on salad tbh

[tough shell]

The only salad im running on my pc is the flute salad remix

[cyan ravine]

You should update monitor man

[obsidian wigeon]

U28E

[cyan ravine]

Go with a nice 1440p like a G27Q

[obsidian wigeon]

Old monitor indeed

[tough shell]

It was from first year college (2017)

[obsidian wigeon]

ya a modern 1440p would be nice tbh

[cyan ravine]

Ya, that sounds about right

[tough shell]

The ultrawide was $60 from a friend lmao

[obsidian wigeon]

fps boost too

[tough shell]

But so aids not having the same size monitor ngl

[earnest olive]

I want a fruit salad rn tbh

[obsidian wigeon]

How about cucumber salad

[earnest olive]

really want some pineapple, mango, apple, and strawberry rn

maybe some pears

[tough shell]

My fav salad I get once a year, my mom makes it for christmas - broccoli salad with bacon, rasins, and a white sauce

[earnest olive]

broccoli salad is nice

[tough shell]

Yee

Also, what IS salad on your pc? XD

Is it for stress testing

[obsidian wigeon]

Workloads that pays you back in balance

Can be traded for many things including virtual visas

They pay at a fixed rate

No fluctuations

[potent portal]

It's like crypto mining but better

Because mining sucks now

[obsidian wigeon]

Well it fluctuates sometimes if you don't have good hardware

Because workloads gets assigned to others

[tough shell]

Is it worth doing if I leave my pc on when away? Or does it put a lot of load on it?

And do I need a crypto wallet for it?

[fossil cedar]

Better is a strong word I'd still loose money with salad

[potent portal]

But you'd lose less money than mining still

[cyan ravine]

I'd like a pato salad

Wow no wonder that emoji is top in wegg. 4029 results

[obsidian wigeon]

It's good for first few days when you get a referral from someone

[earnest olive]

it can be worth doing if you have solar and your gpu can handle high memory loads without needing high fan speeds and $10/week sounds meaningful to you

[obsidian wigeon]

I wish $10 a week was possible on mine

[tough shell]

Ig if I find a place with power included in rent

Ill do it

Lol

[potent portal]

If you have solar and still have capacity to spare maybe

[obsidian wigeon]

I get what

[earnest olive]

if it can buy you lunch once a week it's not bad

[obsidian wigeon]

0.05 usd per day

[earnest olive]

if you have to pay for power it's probably not gonna be profitable

[tough shell]

See - currently living at home

[earnest olive]

damn i ran a 3080 for 1 week and got $14

[obsidian wigeon]

It got me to a point where I decided to sell it

[tough shell]

[potent portal]

Still better than mining raven or doge

[earnest olive]

well your parents are gonna be paying for power

[obsidian wigeon]

ye ofc

Just not worth it for me anymore

So I sold the rig

[earnest olive]

we have solar so we legit just don't pay for power

[obsidian wigeon]

Be done with it

[earnest olive]

that wasn't addressed to you

[tough shell]

Lemme mine kodakcoin

[fossil cedar]

You'd be better off just asking your parents directly for like 5$ a week instead of stealing their power

[tough shell]

B)

[earnest olive]

like even if he lives at home and doesn't have to pay for power it's still his parents paying for it

[obsidian wigeon]

I was replying to falcie lol

[earnest olive]

oh lol

[tough shell]

Yeah not actually gunna do it lmao

But like I said if I can go find a rental that has power included

Then fosho gunna

[earnest olive]

"give me $5/week or else I'll make the electricity bill $1000/month"

[tough shell]

Or do both

[obsidian wigeon]

Hey it's better deal

[earnest olive]

you also need to consider whether or not you can do it at low fan speeds

cause replacing gpu fans is not free

[potent portal]

Or do what they did ||jk please don't||

I remember hearing about that

[obsidian wigeon]

I never had to replace my gpu fan tho

Ran a one fan 1660s for 3 years straight

No fan issues

Last time I cleaned it sounds like a whizz

Cleaned it two days before I sold it

[tough shell]

Also idk what happened but my crashing pc is a non issue now

[obsidian wigeon]

The buyer was happy about this little problem tho

[tough shell]

[obsidian wigeon]

It still has warranty left in it lmao

An entire year left

[potent portal]

That's as much as my HDD plus both SSDs

[obsidian wigeon]

They can rma if they want

Good for me

Cause I won't have to worry

I don't have good enough storage for chia

just make the malware reinstall itself on any new systems added to the network

Nah college will wreck your day. They have to spend your money somewhere.

[potent portal]

My college even had a separate internet connection entirely for the computer lab building because they know what goes on there

[tough shell]

luckily I ended my degree with no student debt, and a bunch of cash in savings accs, so that's

[tough shell]

my college res internet was ethernet in EVERY bedroom (no shared bedrooms between residents), and was about 100mbps up/down, then they changed it to wifi that was supposed to be better, got rid of the modems, and paid smthn like 500k for new stuff, and it doesn't work in anything but one of the three res blocks

Lucky me, they changed it right before covid, so my zoom classes were kinda crap

[obsidian wigeon]

yikes

That's a way to waste school budget

[tough shell]

yeah, < ideal

[tough shell]

our residence makes about 2.5m per year for my college

Funny story, I personally designed and installed the security system for that same lab building. Didn't get paid or anything. Didn't count as any kind of internship credit. Just a favor to my awesome professor.

It'll run at the speed of the slowest stick

yes but itll run at the slower speed and it can cause instability because of mixing ram dies, SHOULD be okay ish

should be a key word

[potent portal]

I had a kit of 3200 (c die) that straight up refused to post at jedec stock speed (2933) with another kit I have (4133 b die)

legit using a sata ssd but with higher latency as your ram

[potent portal]

I really just needed to test if it was a capacity issue before I bought more memory. Which it was, I found out after buying more b-die.

[little osprey]

nvm the cycle isn't more frequent but still

[earnest olive]

this still confuses me tbh

like

i still run 16gb in my laptop even

and i can run stuff like path traced cyberpunk without any issues whatsoever

it doesn't make sense to me that your stuff just crashes with 16gb

[potent portal]

All I can say is I'd get crashes in a few games. Errors would usually say out of VRAM oddly enough, but it wasn't anywhere near full.

Now I have 32gb and no more crash

Couldn't tell you why

[earnest olive]

this laptop is actually my main machine if i want to do AAA gaming now

since the gpu is so much more powerful than my desktop

still chugging along happily with 16gb of oem ram with some light overclocking

nothing nearly as fancy as your b-die

[little osprey]

NEVERMIND it was the seating

screw me

[earnest olive]

💀

at least you figured it out

glad i was right in the end lol otherwise i wasn't really sure what else we could try

[little osprey]

updating bios so I can put my ryzen 5 3600 in lol

and then I'll have to die while I configure the windows install that was previously on an Intel machine

[earnest olive]

i'd recommend just doing a fresh install

it's easier honestly

It may be me but I'm genuinely confused as to why my ethernet just stops working after boot does anyone know what this is?

[earnest olive]

go to device manager

find your ethernet adapter

see if it is reporting an error code

on windows 10/11, you can right click the start button to bring up a menu, device manager will be in there

example

[sacred gale]

It says the controller is working properly

[earnest olive]

interesting

[sacred gale]

It's a brand new cord Aswell

[earnest olive]

try reinstalling drivers maybe

[sacred gale]

Even bought a new one for my series x and that one just won't turn on at all

My router is working ethernet is connected to 2 other systems in my house and they all work fine

For some reason my Lan for my pc will work but not when it's turned on, and the one connected to my xbox just won't turn on at all

How would I go about reinstalling the driver then?

[potent portal]

What motherboard is it? I'll find the latest version

[sacred gale]

Rog strix z-690 a wifi d4

I'm gonna go into the bios and see if I can find anything there that's off.

[potent portal]

Windows 10 or 11?

[sacred gale]

11

[sacred gale]

That didn't seem to work, I can't help but feel it's something else. It was working a couple days ago

But if it's not even connecting to my xbox I'm just lost

[earnest olive]

might be a wider issue with your network provider if it doesn't work with your xbox
