8600 cl36

#

8266 cl32

zinc cargo
#

what 7200 do u have

stoic island
#

there's 8240c32 with 32b

cyan ravine
#

Me? I have the kit you ordered but like 2 years old

zinc cargo
#

memory controller of intel is better than amd right?

cyan ravine
#

I also have 6400 cl32

zinc cargo
#

btw I feel like intel is more responsive than amd

cyan ravine
#

5600 cl28

zinc cargo
#

because of the L2 cache size

cyan ravine
#

6400 cl34(?)

zinc cargo
#

thats my theory but yea

#

and the intercore communication

#

and the fact that amd has the I/O die physically away from the CCD

cyan ravine
zinc cargo
#

so IF is involved

#

so i think thats why intel feel more responsive

cyan ravine
#

AMD X3D has L3 cache tho

zinc cargo
#

yeah but when L2 cache exceeds it goes to L3

cyan ravine
#

Direct on die cache at that

zinc cargo
#

while intel has larger L2 it wouldnt need to go to L3 that much

#

so its faster

cyan ravine
#

I think it's more just an ipc thing

#

Idk, I'm not a cpu engineer

#

Lol

zinc cargo
#

yeah just theorizing

#

but I love how intel feels tbh

#

( in gaming )

cyan ravine
#

Wow @potent portal

#

Like the top 6 on ycruncher 1b

#

They use exotic cooling

#

Below that

#

Practically xmp on some*

#

💀

#

I remember when this sport was more popular

#

Tho that LN2 pot do be pushing the fast cpu clocks

#

7000 cl32 on this one from luumi

zinc cargo
#

7k cl32 is the lowest?

cyan ravine
#

Ye

#

At 7.3GHz cpu

#

Most of these are in the 8000 range

zinc cargo
#

Wthhhh

#

7.3ghz cpuuuuu

cyan ravine
#

Jfc a uni x made it into the top 20

#

That's rare

#

They really did fix that board

#

Oh oops it's top 40

#

Even still 8200 is great

#

Eh well anyway

zinc cargo
#

Yeah i aint going near anything

#

😭

cyan ravine
#

Can't see anything that's resembling 7200cl26, but a lot of the ones I did mention are easily faster than 7200cl26 anyway

zinc cargo
#

Yeah

cyan ravine
#

Most of those names are pretty veteran in the space too, they know what they're doing and use exotic cooling

#

A good result for an aorus x would be more like

#

And I'm going to preface this as stable for valorant

#

7600-ish

#

If you're lucky cl32

zinc cargo
#

Sheesh

#

Okayy

cyan ravine
#

Probably around 38 38 38 28?

zinc cargo
#

32 u mean?

cyan ravine
#

No those are the primaries

zinc cargo
#

32-38-38-38-28 ?

cyan ravine
#

Yep

zinc cargo
#

Dang

cyan ravine
#

Something like that

#

Maybe 39 39 39 30

#

Trfc you want relatively low

#

Trefi 64K and no higher (You can corrupt windows at 65K+)

#

Oh wait no that's ddr4

#

Trefi...

#

261K

#

All the remaining secondaries and tertiaries are more or less the same for everyone on ddr5

#

Which makes it a lot easier than it could be

#

But balancing voltages are what makes it take weeks to overclock

#

You can be off by like, 0.005v and it's completely unstable

#

Becomes a very annoying voltage puzzle

zinc cargo
#

Thats some deep technical sh

cyan ravine
#

So yeah, tread into that at your own peril

#

I learned a lot since being out of the sport

zinc cargo
#

U must superhuman fr😭

cyan ravine
#

Just a few hours of google and a bit of self-study here and there

#

Before you know it you're a couple years deep in this and it starts making a little sense

#

Lol

zinc cargo
#

Well done bro fr😂👏

Does anyone have a recommended graphics card for my build? Parts down below

Ryzen 5 5600
16gb ddr4 ram
512gb ssd
600 watt psu

Budget of 200 dollars maybe a little more, the graphics card is all I need to finish the build.

cyan ravine
#

5700XT, 2070 super

#

How much is the ram, psu and ssd tho

silk prairie

Wdym

crimson zinc

2080ti if you can get a good deal on it**

cyan ravine

# cyan ravine 5700XT, 2070 super

This is the simple answer, but you may have a lot more budget you can leverage for the gpu (or if the PSU isn't good enough, less)

mossy venture
#

model

#

also do you already own the rest of that

rustic shoal

Hey all, I’m looking to put together a system for my sister in law. It’s strictly for work, with Microsoft office, but she will be doing some video editing and Clipchamp calls. Really nothing too serious, but I didn’t want her to just go to Best Buy and overspend. What would you all recommend for a cpu / gpu combo? Budget probably $600 max. I’m going to build it in a basic case with some fans and a decent tower cooler.

pseudo pollen
#

$600 for the entire system?

rustic shoal
#

Sure. I will go used parts.

pseudo pollen
#

alright so I'm guessing not really gaming focused, but it will still be good to have a good gpu

#

I'm of out the loop for pc lists right now, but I should be able to put together a decent list for that price, someone else can check my work afterwards

rustic shoal
#

Yes. No games. Just video editing some.

mossy venture
#

can certainly do a new system too

pseudo pollen
#

I haven't done pc lists for a while so I have to refresh my memory in order to get an idea of prices and such

rustic shoal
#

True. A prebuilt system with a gpu would be fine. Cyberpower and ibuypower have $800 minimums.

#

Which is pricey for a rtx 3050.

#

I could get her an Optiplex with an 8700 and my gtx 1070. lol.

pseudo pollen
#

that would actually be completely fine (ish)

rustic shoal
#

True. I just have to explain the differences between a new system and an “old” one. Windows 11 might be a thing for her. In that case has to be 8th gen intel or above.

pseudo pollen
mossy venture
pseudo pollen
#

weird thing is that prices have stayed relatively the same since I left 6 months ago ish

mossy venture
#
#

three build options

#

can go up to 1tb ssd, can swap case/fans as youd like, can fill in gpu as you want for the last list

#

the first two lists are using igpu

#

can do much cheaper psu as well

pseudo pollen
#

5600gt is a new thing, right?

mossy venture
#

basically the same as 5600g

#

minor clock diff i think

pseudo pollen
#

yeah that's what I thought

#

since 5600x was almost same price I just went with that

mossy venture
#

its $10 cheaper than 5600g rn

#

yeah but 5600x doesnt have igpu

pseudo pollen
#

if you have a dgpu it's fine right?

mossy venture
#

yes

#

5600x is much better if you dont need the igpu

pseudo pollen
#

with the $600 budget you can def fit a dgpu

mossy venture
#

yes

#

thats the last list i made

#

$410 and cpu doesnt have an igpu

pseudo pollen
#

true

#

not keeping in touch with deals nowadays, since I'm not building anything

silk prairie
pseudo pollen
#

what is psu

silk prairie
#

Power supply

pseudo pollen
#

no I'm asking you what your psu is

#

my grammar is not very good today

cyan ravine
#

It's ok

#

His psu is his power supply unit

#

💀

cyan ravine
#

Full name not just the brand

silk prairie
#

Aight one sec

#

Ok so the instructions dont clarify

#

All i can find is that its an Aresgame AVG500

pseudo pollen
#

that's really bad

#

but possible that it will work

mossy venture
#

i would highly suggest a replacement before boom

silk prairie
#
#

Heres the link on amazon

mossy venture
#

big boom

silk prairie
#

Some details in case you want them

silk prairie
#

None of the reviews on any of them mention booms

mossy venture
#

aresgame has a single mediocre psu and every other one is prone to killing pcs

silk prairie
#

welp

#

i'm not gonna buy another one until this one (might) explode tho. I don't have enough cash on me

#

my friend has a very sketchy psu, and he says its great

mossy venture
#

its great... till its not

potent portal
#

The problem is when a power supply fails, it's often going to take other parts with it

cyan ravine
#

No, let's elaborate further

silk prairie
cyan ravine
#

It will take other parts with it

silk prairie
#

so which one do i buy

#

again*

cyan ravine
#

$50 gets you an apevia prestige 600w

#

10x better than any aresgame or gamemax

#

Those two brands are dumpster fires for psu safety

silk prairie
#

if it explodes, i'll let you know

cyan ravine
#

Good psus ship with protections that often kick in when something goes fatally wrong

mossy venture
silk prairie
#

but i really cant change rn

cyan ravine
#

Aresgame do not ship good psus

mossy venture
potent portal
cyan ravine
#

And a 500W one at that, I can't even recommend the same gpu anymore

silk prairie
cyan ravine
#

I would recommend a 75W 1650

cyan ravine
silk prairie
#

THATS WHAT EVERYONE SAYS BUT THEY NEVER EXPLODE

cyan ravine
#

Until they do

silk prairie
#

bro

cyan ravine
#

💀

#

I ain't gonna defend that psu

#

No way

#

I recommend a 75W 1650 LP

#

Nothing else

silk prairie
#

my friend bought a sketch one like 2 years ago and it's fine

potent portal
#

The problem with aresgame is they send different units to the 80+ qualification tests than what you get from a retail box, so you could get literally anything. It's a grab bag of parts. Maybe it's fine, and maybe it'll catch fire if it's under load too long.

silk prairie
#

we'll just have to see with mine then because it ain't even finished

#

i still need the gpu so thats what i originally asked for advice for

potent portal
#

The same with units they send to reviewers, they're manipulating the results which you would only do if you are hiding something

silk prairie
#

seems too antagonistic

#

they aint that evil

cyan ravine
#

We don't normally rat on things like this unless it's actually bad

#

They have a reputation for undermining reviewers

silk prairie
#

uh huh

cyan ravine
#

Well don't say you weren't warned

potent portal
#

We bought one of the best-selling power supplies on Amazon, the AresGame AGS850 80 Plus Gold, and found it doesn't meet the requirements of 80 Plus Gold. It didn't explode, though!

thats what im sayin

potent portal

Didn't explode is like saying the used car you bought only needed the entire cooling system replaced

silk prairie

hey, older cars that need fixer-uppers are still better than teslas

cyan ravine

Truly a pcmr moment

4070ti ventus on fbm for 500$..

#

I could..

#

Should I?

cyan ravine
#

That's really nice provided it's not got some disgusting catch 22

potent portal
#

Is it the ventus 2x or 3x

cyan ravine
#

Yeah was about to ask that

#

Idk if 4070 ti has 2x

potent portal
#

It does

cyan ravine
#

If it does it's cursed

cyan ravine

Oh god.

potent portal

Flashbacks to the 3070 2x overheating

It's a usable 4070ti

potent portal
#

Make sure to get a copy of the original receipt just in case for warranty. Don't tell MSI you bought second hand.

stoic island
#

Doesn't MSI have transferrable warranty?

potent portal
#

No but they won't ask unless you mention it

#

They do very much require the original receipt or invoice

stoic island
#

they just base it off manufacturing date instead of purchase date

potent portal
#

It might be different for GPUs because they flat out refused to warranty my mobo without the invoice

stoic island
potent portal
#

Weird, I wonder how they define each of those

stoic island
#

yea I dunno

cyan ravine
#

Oh wait I misread

#

No that's only if they can't provide invoice

Okay so - The dude selling the 4070ti MSI Ventus 3 E OC for 500$ is taking pictures of it later today, he has original box, bought in November (which is good because E OC came out around that time) and he seems like a solid seller. Only issue is he doesn’t have a monitor to test bench it.

#

This would be the build if I bought it

#

Just I would have to sell my 7800xt Pulse

dusky hearth
#

Idk if it's worth the upgrade from a 7800xt

manic cloak
#

I mean the resell value is good though

#

500$ and just resell to 600$ ig

Though who knows if it’s even worth the time

hey guys is the r5 7600x good?

mossy venture
#

7600 is 1-2% worse and comes with a stock cooler

#

And uses a lot less power

mossy venture
#

4gb less vram

stark quail
cyan ravine
#

7600 is the same chip

manic cloak
cyan ravine
#

They just didn't give it an X and the factory binning spec is 100MHz lower (one is also unlocked on power, but both can be unlocked)

manic cloak
#

I don’t play really any heavy vram games

cyan ravine
#

Performance wise they're within like, 2% of each other

manic cloak
#

For now atleast, it’s so pointless to have on. Not worth the extra power draw or even usage

cyan ravine

Less a scam than cuda tho

#

Lol

manic cloak
#

True

cyan ravine

At least fmf is universal out the gate

Ya but none of the games I’ve played really worked with FMF

The only one would be Roblox 💀

cyan ravine

Hmmm interesting

I mean it's not supposed to feel faster

Just look faster

manic cloak

It’s supposed to feel cleaner

cyan ravine

Ye

manic cloak

But it’s choppy

cyan ravine
#

Smoother

manic cloak
#

Especially rust

cyan ravine
#

But latency won't drop

#

Latency if anything increases

manic cloak
#

Cause it’s constantly developing frames

#

Latency does increase

#

Usually at 6ms

cyan ravine
#

Ye

manic cloak
#

But rust it peaks from 27-68ms

#

So I just turn it off cause I’d rather suffer

#

Than suffer even more with FMF on kekw

#

Anywho I mean a 4070ti for 500$ tho

cyan ravine
#

Rust is a pain on the cpu

manic cloak
#

That’s like a decently priced deal

#

13600k eats it up

cyan ravine

You can do a lot to fix rust with ram oc

cyan ravine

Then again I’m on DDR4

cyan ravine
#

Another factorio moment

manic cloak
#

I want to upgrade to ddr5

#

But it’s not even worth it rn or even worth

cyan ravine
#

Not worth

manic cloak
#

I would have to remove everything, reinstall it

#

Then who knows what junk I’d have to transfer over or redo

cyan ravine
#

Well to me you want to sell everything to move up

manic cloak
#

I have the traders mindset

cyan ravine
#

You need to offset costs down to about $40 spent overall

manic cloak
#

The YBA mindset 😭

#

“Trading stand for stand skin pls pls”

manic cloak
#

Due to Microcenter deal

stark quail
#

is this any good Cooler Master MASTERLIQUID ML240L RGB V2 for the r5 7600?

cyan ravine
#

That cooler works fine but don't buy it new

#

Get a single tower for $20 instead. Those are already overkill (some better than aios due to coldplate contact on 7600)

#

Thermalright assassin spirit 120 evo is good

#

If you want rgb

#

Id cooling se 224xt or se 214xt also good

#

Ml240l in comparison is like a 5 year old design at this point, designed for no chips sold today it's grossly out of it's depth

#

A good aio but not worth buying in today's environment

#

I still have mine packed away I think lol

stark quail
#

sheeesh bet thanks

manic cloak
#

If you really wanna spend money on an AIO go ahead but that money could be added to like an upgraded part

#

Personally the air cooler is the best choice, I didn’t think it was but it fits with my system really well & the pa120 SE cools a powerhouse chip really good so !

stark quail
#

what mob and gpu should i get that can do ddr5 ram with a r5 7600 cpu?

potent portal
#

I only bought it because I got it for $50 and good air coolers didn't exist at that price that could handle my 5800X.

mossy venture
cyan ravine
#

Would never buy it tho now, not ever

#

I still use it for things tho

potent portal
#

It barely kept up with my 5800X but it did keep up during gaming. Multi core loads would still hit tjmax.

Anyone can recommend me a good aircase for airflow and an liquid cooler also. I'm switching to new case coz of hot weather

crimson zinc
burnt spruce
#

Yes I think so. Because recently my pc suddenly shutdown or sometimes it suddenly freezes

I only think the reason is the temp of ssd is 50 degrees

burnt spruce
cyan ravine
#

@burnt spruce what cpu is this for

#

And motherboard

stoic island
#

If your CPU or GPU are hitting like 95c and 85c respectively, there's a chance that it's overheating and hitting the thermal limit under certain loads

#

There's a decent chance that the freezes and shutdowns are more software related, should prob look at event viewer or smth like whocrashed to check the reason for it shutting down

Actually my gpu temp is just 50-60 and cpu is mostly 50-60

Idk but sometimes suddenly the screen freezes

cyan ravine
#

Sounds normal

stoic island
#

whocrashed just finds and reads it for you but you'd have to download it

burnt spruce
#

Or sometimes suddenly restarting or shutdown

cyan ravine

Screen freezing or restarting could be a whole swag of other things

cyan ravine
#

AM4 is a bounty of random things most often related to AGESA and the AM4 chipsets themselves

burnt spruce

I only encounter this during this week

Screen freezes or shutdown so I thought its the ssd temp which hits 50-52 sometimes

cyan ravine

Nah ssd's like being way hotter

About 80-ish they're happy

Up to about 95 when they throttle (or supposed to)

Ram is like this too

burnt spruce

So any solution to diagnose the problem?

stoic island
potent portal
#

Any notable changes recently, like updating your GPU driver etc?

burnt spruce
#

I didnt update gpu driver etc

potent portal
#

Checking the windows update logs can help too, sometimes it's just M$ being M$

burnt spruce
#

Actually its way outdated

burnt spruce
potent portal
#

If it's too outdated then windows update becomes more likely to force you to update it... which often breaks things

burnt spruce
#

even temps are just like this rn

potent portal
#

Thanks microsoft

burnt spruce
#

not totally outdated I guess ?

stoic island

You should check temps under load, not while idle

but it shouldn't be running into thermal issues with 5600g with a freezer 34

Should be another section below for "driver updates"

stoic island
#

22h2 is a bit old, I thought they were forcing 23h2 updates, but maybe thats only for w11

burnt spruce
potent portal
#

Ok so no recent drivers

#

But you did recently update to 22H2 so you probably need to update a few drivers to match that

#

Oh wait that's 2023

#

nvm

burnt spruce
#

I opened who crashed now

#

what else should I do ?

stoic island
#

click analyze on whocrashed

cyan ravine
#

Gonna suggest it if it's not already said, bios update might do something

burnt spruce
potent portal
#

Corrupt dumps

#

hmm

stoic island
#

prob sfc then chkdsk

burnt spruce
#

sfc and chkdsk ? how should I fix it ?

stoic island
#

type cmd into windows search and run as administrator

#

then type in sfc /scannow

cyan ravine
#

Would also consider a ram test

burnt spruce
#

what else should I do ?

stoic island
#

assuming your windows drive is your C: drive, type in chkdsk C: /f

burnt spruce
#

also in cmd line ?

stoic island
#

yea

burnt spruce
#

so should I restart first ?

stoic island
#

I think you can do chkdsk C: /scan to do read only scan without restarting if you want

#

the /f flag tells it to try to fix anything it comes across, but if you just want to know if there are problems, just scanning will be fine

burnt spruce
#

its still scanning if its like this right ?

stoic island
#

yea

#

should look something like this after a moment

burnt spruce
#

I think it will take a while. Kindly wait for the result if ever

languid nimbus
#

/delete system 32

cursive wharf
burnt spruce
#

still doing the scanning right now

stoic island
#

uhhh

#

that doesn't seem right

burnt spruce
#

I tried to open new cmd line and re run the command you sent

stoic island
#

well something is wrong with the disk

burnt spruce
#

whats the best way to fix this if ever ?

#

I rerun it

#

What should I do after this ?

#

drivers being funny prob

limber oyster
#

My Bluetooth is also not being detected by my device manager even after a fresh windows and drivers install

dusky hearth
#

You sure your wifi chipset supports bt as well

limber oyster
#

Yeah

#

It was pre-installed by Asus and I've had the board for over a year now

dusky hearth
#

Also how many dbms are you getting if you're on wifi

limber oyster
#

I play 95% of my games via Xbox controller

dusky hearth
#

Signal strength

cyan ravine
#

Doubloon meters per second

dusky hearth
#

Also if device manager isn't even seeing Bluetooth, maybe try reseating the wifi nic

#

I'm assuming it isn't soldered on since you said pre-installed

limber oyster
#

Id have to take apart the IO shield

dusky hearth
#

Oh

#

That's weird then

limber oyster

And remove this beast

I want to get the Wifi7 BM200 but it's $30 and isn't supported by AMD rn

#

Might just get the same card, AX200, for $19

crimson zinc

#

Defrosted meat per serving

dusky hearth
cyan ravine
dusky hearth
#

Technically it's dBms

limber oyster
#

I'll just wait and get a new ax200

potent portal
cyan ravine
dusky hearth
#

But if it's a shoddy wireless signal, that may not help

limber oyster
#

I want the wifi 7 BM200, but it's not compatible with AMD systems

dusky hearth
#

I mean compared to your current chip

limber oyster
#

It's not compatible at all

#

According to intel

#

I saw a MSI variant that does

cyan ravine
#

Depends what the slot spec takes

limber oyster
#

But it's a PCIe adapter

#

It comes with the bm200 installed on it and plugs into a pciex1 slot

potent portal
cyan ravine
#

It'll just be a case of drivers if it's a pcie card

#

Only needs sufficient bandwidth

#

The drivers do the rest

potent portal
#

It's not detected in windows so drivers aren't even loaded

cyan ravine
#

I mean the wifi 7 card

potent portal
#

Yeah

#

The wifi card is not detected in windows

potent portal
#

But it is detected after a BIOS update sometimes

cyan ravine
#

Sorry typing from phone I guess that was misleading lol

dusky hearth
lone flame
#

how can i properly tune my gpu to use a bit less power/heat so i dont cook alive this summer without crashing

cyan ravine
#

Yeah but it'd be compatible

#

My point is it'd be compatible no matter what it's called, so long as it has the pcie bandwidth

dusky hearth
#

yeah it theoretically should since it uses the pcie interface

cyan ravine
#

Ye

#

Pcie is designed to be reverse compatible

#

If you don't have a slot, you can use an ngff adapter

dusky hearth
#

some intel wifi chips use a different interface which isnt compatible but this one should, though there have been users saying that it didnt work for them

potent portal
cyan ravine
#

Again ngff would fix a slot issue

#

Not e key compatible? Turn one into e key lol

#

The cheap aliexpress ones are probably even fine here as it's just a wifi card

#

Lol

lone flame
dusky hearth
#

the issue people were reportedly having were the mobo/windows not detecting the nic at all

lone flame
#

obv not in a game

cyan ravine
#

Only way to do it

#

Swap to lower power vbios if you have it

#

Use MPT to manually flash lower power when you turn on the pc and power cycle

lone flame
#

idk what those last 2 messages are

cyan ravine
#

Undervolting isn't a thing on radeon

cyan ravine
#

MPT - software for radeon oc

dusky hearth
potent portal
cyan ravine
#

It's true, undervolting is how you overclock

#

Omg gboard

lone flame
#

it yells at me

dusky hearth
#

legal disclaimer

cyan ravine
#

Radeon cards will always target the power limit or temp limit no matter how low you make the voltage

#

It purely makes them go faster

#

It's like Ryzen CO

dusky hearth
#

real

potent portal
lone flame
potent portal
#

Some GPUs might be able to do it

#

But it's less likely

#

95% is a little more realistic

cyan ravine
#

Some cards like a little voltage drop

#

Some like a lot

#

Either can be faster than the other it's all down to asic quality

#

But again, won't make it cooler, only faster

lone flame
#

what if i just a fan curve like this would this damage my graphics card over time

potent portal
#

That won't change how much heat it gives off

#

Just how hot it runs

cyan ravine
#

Just hold it in more

#

Yeah

lone flame
#

i know that but like

lone flame
#

if its running a like 80

#

instead of like 65

cyan ravine
#

Why can't we just reduce the power limit

lone flame
#

im going to

#

i was just wondering, it was a random question i had

#

sorry

cyan ravine
#

Not annoyed or anything

#

Just felt like we were skirting lol

limber oyster
#

Looking at getting the be200

#

But Intel says it isn't supported

#

Sorry, phone died

potent portal
lone flame
#

sorry I should of worded that better to begin with thats kinda what I wanted to ask

potent portal
#

The temp limits are far below anything that will cause damage

cyan ravine
#

@dusky hearth @limber oyster it's hardware locked

dusky hearth
#

theoretically it shouldnt be though

potent portal
#

I've seen people on B450 and X570 get BIOS updates that let it work

dusky hearth
#

intel has made no mention of it

dusky hearth
#

the intel specific wlan chips use a different interface than pcie

#

it uses inte's civiop or however you spell it since im too lazy to search it interface

cyan ravine
#

Apparently this has long been a thing

dusky hearth
#

cnvio2

#

yeah

cyan ravine
#

So it's hardware locked despite being pcie

dusky hearth
#

but intel has specified that it uses the pcie interface

cyan ravine
#

Yes but that doesn't stop a lockout

dusky hearth
#

and all their NICs that use cnvio2 list cnvio2 in their specs

#

give me a second

cyan ravine
#

You can program it to not work with a competing system

dusky hearth
cyan ravine
#

Yeah this whole thread is big

#

Someone says it works with 8th gen lol

dusky hearth
cyan ravine
#

Interesting

dusky hearth
#

previous generations (ac200, ax200, etc.) are working fine on amd

#

their ax201, ax211, and such are intel only

#

they didnt have an ac200

#

at least ax200 and ax210 are amd compatible

cyan ravine
#

Learning a lot reading this, there's no pinpoint answer on why it's not working

#

So probably, they need BE201 to be amd compatible? Which doesn't exist yet

dusky hearth
#

but assuming that they follow the naming convention, which intel (unlike a certain other company) does so relatively consistently, be201 should be the one that is intel only

#

but yeah idk

#

weird situation with be200

cyan ravine
#

I noticed this too, the pinouts are different

#

And there was a similar follow up post to this in the other thread

#

It was talking about how MLO isn't enabled unless it's on new intel systems

#

i.e lga1700

#

/sp5?

#

/w790 etc

#

Apparently it works on a 2700x board.

#

....lol

dusky hearth
#

honestly speaking, not many people can even take advantage of wifi 7 anyways, most people dont even have wifi6e lmao

#

and the be200 is only 2x2

cyan ravine
#

Apparently it works on AM3

#

💀

#

Wth is this mess

dusky hearth
#

literally have no clue if it's amd or intel's fault

#

☠️

cyan ravine
#

There's something to it

#

No AM5 can run it

potent portal
#

It's an optional part of the spec that some board vendors might not implement is my guess.

cyan ravine
#

AM4 kinda runs it

#

All intel runs it

#

AM3 runs it

potent portal
#

I saw people on Z490 have issues with it

#

11th gen

cyan ravine
#

Or the pinout change has led to the lack of proper function

#

like plugging in a usb and nothing comes up

dusky hearth
#

considering that people have been omitting sata from their m.2 m key slots, probably

cyan ravine
#

Mmmmm

potent portal
#

Ugh I ran into that issue

#

B650 livemixer is goated in every way, except only 2 sata ports and no sata m.2

#

It's not even hard to use one of the chipset sata ports and disable one of the wired ports

cyan ravine
#

That board has that x670 upgrade too iirc

covert vapor
#

For some reason I can still find them in local parts stores

cyan ravine
#

Lol

#

AM3 on top for this one

cyan ravine
covert vapor
#

Local place in NY had boxes of them back in 2019

limber oyster
#

So I should just stick with the chipset I have now

#

Gut it

#

*got

#

And just get a new one

cyan ravine
#

Well for the time being unless you can find a wifi 7 card from someone not intel, it's probably off the table

#

Gigabyte has a pcie wifi card that I've seen pop up in a number of these threads working without issues

#

Tho nothing with am5 yet if you're on am5

potent portal
#

There's a realtek chipset with wifi 7

cyan ravine
#

There's not really a huge advantage to gain over 6E anyway in these early stages

dusky hearth
#

But it's realtek

cyan ravine
#

Like Fal says often "First gen releases never go well"

potent portal
#

Applies to both computers and cars

dusky hearth
#

Go for ax210 if you want wifi6e

cyan ravine
#

Lol

#

6 and 6E should be good enough for the normal day to day

potent portal
#

6E is the one that's required to be tri band and uses 6GHz channels

#

6 is just 5 with WPA3

cyan ravine
#

I'd be looking at what's causing such a low signal

#

Iirc the pc is in that pelican case?

#

If the antenna are stuck inside the case then that will interfere with the signal

dusky hearth
#

Getting new wifi5 for client stations doesn't make too much sense, especially yeah RSN is quite a bit more secure

cyan ravine
#

Antenna orientation also matters

#

Flat for vertical range

#

Tall for horizontal range

cyan ravine
#

Apparently it's a radio station here

#

Lol

potent portal
cyan ravine
#

i?

potent portal
#

yes

cyan ravine
#

First I heard of i

#

Then again I kinda stopped paying attention after n

dusky hearth
#

It's not a wifi version

cyan ravine
#

MBG-GC-WIFI7

#

That's the gigabyte card

potent portal
#

It was originally part of the i spec but it's been included in later editions starting with n

dusky hearth
#

Also it wasn't RSN I think, it was SAE that I was referring to... Or maybe it was right, I forget exactly

#

Yeah RSN was wpa2

cyan ravine
#

GC-WIFI7 appears to be intel

potent portal
#

If you're talking about WPA3 then yes it's SAE

#

That makes it a lot harder for a deauth attack to grab keys

cyan ravine
#

There are so many like

#

Fake wifi7 cards

#

Omg

potent portal
#

Oh yeah same thing with ethernet cables

cyan ravine
#

Just intel be200's with pcie ngff

potent portal
#

Most of the cat7 and cat8 cables are fake

dusky hearth
cyan ravine
#

B a g n ac ax be

#

Idk about i

potent portal
dusky hearth
#

And then there's a bunch of other standards for features like r for fast BSS (faster roaming between APs)

cyan ravine
#

I think this sums it up really well, wifi 7 still isn't an official standard yet

#

So there still will be wide compatibility problems

potent portal
#

It's just a draft standard yeah

dusky hearth
cyan ravine
#

So intel.saying their z790 refresh having "wifi 7" is not official

#

And if they up the spec then those boards will be invalid

#

So it's just, not really a thing yet

dusky hearth
#

I mean, the hardware requirements has been finalized I think? Just the software stuff that aren't completely finalized yet, but idk I didn't look too closely lmao

cyan ravine
#

Which would make sense if the drivers simply aren't detecting the card as there's probably been no engagement to create the detection to begin with on a software/firmware level

#

So you end up with what is essentially a lockout as only intel is working on intel compatibility

potent portal
#

In the past draft specs have almost matched the official standard, but how close it is depends on when it was made and what the draft was.
I remember N being a draft standard for 4 years or something

dusky hearth
#

Seems like wikipedia (trusting the editor rn) says that yeah the hardware is basically finalized

cyan ravine
#

It's conjecture but I'm guessing work allocation has probably resulted in this situation

#

Think I'd wait a few more months before considering wifi 7 as even a thing yet tbh @limber oyster it seems like a mess of compatibility rn

#

There's so many knockoff cards wth

#

And they're all stupid cheap

#

Cheaper than wifi 6

#

I bet you buy one and it's like wifi 4

#

💀

potent portal
#

Prob wifi 5 chips hacked together

cyan ravine
#

Yeah

dusky hearth
#

Considering that the standard is supposed to be ratified by the end of 2024, I doubt any major changes will occur in the next few months

cyan ravine
#

Inb4 "new max speed 7400"

potent portal
#

If I had a dollar for every time I said "I doubt that'll happen..."

dusky hearth
#

But yeah I'd stick with 6e for now

cyan ravine
#

Intel's wifi 7 turns to 6.5

#

We get a repeat of hdmi 2.1

obsidian wigeon
#

Wifi 7 is just too early rn

dusky hearth
#

Or even just wifi6 because most people don't even have 6e

#

Ong

obsidian wigeon
#

Specs not even finalized ffs

cyan ravine
#

I mean 300Mbps is fast af imo

#

I've spent my life under 100

#

Can do a lot with 300

#

You pass the point of practical and reach the point of scalable

dusky hearth
#

The human brain can't really even actually fully comprehend how fast 300mbps is

cyan ravine
#

But you can even stream 4K120 over 300mbps

#

Probably at a good bitrate too

potent portal
obsidian wigeon
#

Most of the world doesn't even have wifi 6 yet

cyan ravine
#

It's excessive for most normal things

#

If it's for a business I'd say different

dusky hearth
#

When did cod become the standard measurement of network speed frfr

#

They didn't teach this in ccna

potent portal
#

When cod games hit 300GB

cyan ravine
#

The network equivalent of "can it run crysis"

dusky hearth
#

I fear the day when games get so big that you need to swap drives like CDs to play a different game

limber oyster
#

To answer, case is the hyte revolt 3

cyan ravine
#

They just pioneered new optical cd tech

dusky hearth
#

Games just ship in a sata ssd

cyan ravine
#

100tb per disc

limber oyster
#

And I've been having issues ever since tff Bluetooth portion stopped working

cyan ravine
dusky hearth
#

But can it run a game that is locked to the clock speed

potent portal
#

Good old console games

cyan ravine
potent portal
#

Overclock the processor to speedrun

cyan ravine
#

Bt and wifi commonly corrupts on windows

limber oyster
#

I've done driver wipe, reinstall

#

As well as a full format of every drive and a fresh windows install

dusky hearth
limber oyster
#

Via USB

#

I also went from w10 to w11

cyan ravine
#

Networking drivers are ass, there was one time I've had to install bluetooth 8 times over before it finally worked

#

Realtek much on the same playing field

limber oyster
#

The device isn't even SEEN

dusky hearth
#

☠️

limber oyster
#

Not that it won't connect or turn on. The pc says it doesn't exist

cyan ravine
#

You don't even get something like "unknown network controller" in device manager?

limber oyster
#

The wifi is read just fine

#

Wifi controller

cyan ravine
#

This is a built in wifi card yes

limber oyster
#

But not Bluetooth

cyan ravine
#

Yes?

limber oyster
#

No strange unknown device with an exclamation point or anything

#

Yes, came with board from asus

cyan ravine
#

Hmm

potent portal
#

RMA?

cyan ravine
#

Yeah sus

dusky hearth
#

Actually yeah it's only a year old, probably still under warranty

limber oyster
#

Wiped drivers, got drivers from Asus, didn't work. Rewiped, got drivers from Intel, didn't work

#

Bought board used awhile ago

dusky hearth
#

Oh

cyan ravine
#

Tried bluetooth troubleshooter?

limber oyster
#

At the time the Strix b550-i was $450 new

limber oyster
dusky hearth
#

Damn expensive

cyan ravine
#

Tried cmos reset

#

Power cycle

limber oyster
#

Yep

#

And bios reset

potent portal
#

Reseat?

limber oyster
#

And bios update

dusky hearth
#

Bios and cmos reset is the same thing

#

Bios is stored in the cmos

cyan ravine
#

Was it still working after you took it out of the pelican caze

limber oyster
#

My board has two separate buttons for that

dusky hearth
potent portal
cyan ravine
#

Ok so it didn't self-immolate in the hotbox

limber oyster
#

This started less than a week ago

dusky hearth
cyan ravine
#

Hmmmmm

limber oyster
#

I've done everything I can think of except tear apart my PC due to the difficulty of it

cyan ravine
#

Yeah you probably want to open up that mobo io shield and take a look then sadly

#

If you have a laptop you can swap that card in

#

Or second pc

#

And see if it works

limber oyster
#

Only pc

cyan ravine
#

If they're both 6/6E should work

limber oyster
#

If I'm gonna go through the trouble of opening it, I'm just gonna replace it once

potent portal
#

Fair enough

limber oyster
#

The hassle of removing my gpu and CPU cooler is too much

dusky hearth
#

I mean

limber oyster
#

My CPU heatsink sits on the io cover

dusky hearth
#

You may want to deep clean dust out every once in a while

limber oyster
#

The heatsink has to come off

cyan ravine
#

Alternatively

#

Bt dongle

limber oyster
#

That won't help wifi speed

cyan ravine
#

Decent one yoy can just plug in

limber oyster
#

And then I'll have conflicting drivers for wifi

cyan ravine
#

Yes it won't

dusky hearth
#

It's not that hard to take off a cpu cooler

Me with a secufirm2 mount

limber oyster
#

If I get a wifi dongle too

cyan ravine
#

But we had a long like 40 minute discussion learning that wifi 7 isn't ready for am5 lol

potent portal
#

There's dongles with BT only

limber oyster
limber oyster
cyan ravine
#

So if you put the pc next to the router

potent portal
#

Yes, but that also means you won't have any conflicts

cyan ravine
#

Is it still getting 6mb/s

limber oyster
#

Router is in parents room across the house

cyan ravine
#

Try next to the router

#

Distance and interference 1000% affects speed

limber oyster
#

It's in their room

dusky hearth
#

Ap being across the house usually is the cause of bad wifi speeds

limber oyster
#

And this is a new issue, literally today

#

Haven't had this issue before

#

Even before we switch to fiber back in January

cyan ravine
#

So before today, it was 300mbps?

dusky hearth
#

My gf's router is also in her mom's room and her connection is... Terrible lmao

limber oyster
#

Give or take 30mbps

cyan ravine
#

Ok then yeah something's up with the module

limber oyster
#

It changed on weather and temp

dusky hearth
#

The installer put the router in the most convenient place even when asked to put it in the center of the house ☠️

limber oyster
#

But its been consistently above 200

cyan ravine
#

If you can't brute force it with software to detect it might have burnt out

limber oyster
cyan ravine
#

Wifi cards on itx don't really get much of any airflow being stuck under an io cover

#

Even with a tiny 20mm fan

limber oyster
#

Router used to be in the living room by the tv

cyan ravine
#

40mm fan

limber oyster
#

Then we switched to fiber and got the lines ran to their room

cyan ravine
#

So it's quite possible something is physically wrong with it

dusky hearth
#

If the living room is in the center of the house, then it makes the most sense

#

Ah

#

Why didn't you have it be placed there as well though

limber oyster
#

Up to them
