Hey i'll take overkill over underkill xD
I used to use a Noctua NHD-15 for a 2700X 😅
2
PCs with bad cooling had only prebuilts from Mediamarkt
its 50° outside on the regular but we got the ac for 19
14900k with one 80 air cooler like the intel stock cooler
Oh we have AC, but it's whole house. So while the house is coolish... my room is not xD
What about next 2 years
B...but why? 😭
Ask multi million company
I've seen enough Gamers Nexus to know that some prebuilts should not exist xD
most* prebuilts.....
cuz money
and probably has RGB
oh and of course, cuz f'ck the costumer* (AKA you)
(sarcasm ofc)
thats probably what the corpos think
You wouldn't think money would factor in with such a powerful cpu.... but~ 😂
every little cent counts 
PlayStation and Xbox removing the Optical port xD
oh yoeash
why do motherboards even have optical ports ? lol
Optical is still used pretty commonly
for what ? 🤔
Sound
Too external speakers. That don't hook up to HDMI
Rostok is still iffy as with frames, i mean it's alot better...
Only my real complaint xD Else she's running sweet as a nut ❤️
will see for me self 
Rest of the game is pretty solid for me performance wise, Just Rostok really dips
godamn, my poor littlre 5600G 
I am still between ptm and kryosheet
Oh no... xD
To get this damn hell machine under control
also @plucky quail how are you doing with the is it placebo test ? (the TSR on AMD VS NVIDIA thing)
nothing
especially since its paired with a 9060 XT 16GB 
Good I still didn’t get the amd finished but by my eyes say it looks the same
If i had the money i'd get a 9070xt
Vram is a bit of an issue, rare though
i think this is quite interesting
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sTYWHB8YN4
Sadly I don’t have dlss to compare but i did test all of the upscaler for still shot with leafs fly and doing ghosting. I also had left and right movement and tested running in a straight line.
just to see what they were ceromending
so thats a pretty solid comparison suite 👍
So young
i also love how for the RT stuf they dont recomend a single AMD card 
Understandably
well, RDNA 2 could do RT (technically) 🤷♂️
I got 7900, so not as demanding
Damn back then the min requirements are really requirement. A gtx 780!
7900 is VERY efficient
I put mine on PBO, and it runs faster than a normal 7900x according to cinebench 😄
could have probably slotted in the 6800 XT for RT minimum and 6900 XT for RT high recomended
though i dont think they had FSR yet back then
RT performance on a 6800xt was abysmal, but rasterisation, it was a beast.
I also did BF6 testing and the highest fps I got with all min settings was avg 220fps I turned all encores off and only used a block of 4 ecores
it was like a 2070 in RT
Just 50 to go to beat the 9800x3d 🙂
yeah, rubbish 😄
And I had a 2070 super too 😄
hold on, they put the XTX right next to a 3080 in raster performance
What

Well, they are compairing 3rd gen RT together 😄
They also did throw the 7800x3d below the 12900k
lol
THATS INSANE
jeez, the devs dont Just hate RADEON, but also **Ryzen **
Yeah, people forget when compairing RT... That AMD are one gen behind. nScamia are currently on gen 4, AMD are gen 3.
Nvidia might as well be GEN 3
cuz Lackwell is just a refresh
So a fair comparison for RT peformance would be the 9070xt v 4070/4070TI, if you was compairing RT like for like.
I think 50 series got a big RT pefermance upgrade, it was the only thing that really went up.
no, it was only an AI upgrade
It had the same uplift as raster I think
they added fp4 support
Not according to reviews from teh likes of HW Unboxed etc... Little raster up life, but a much bigger lift in RT.
Lackwell RT upgrade was focused around RTX mega geometry
5090 was 30% faster
I think I was really fast pointing the disappointment of the 50 series with rt. We are not one step further to PT more we are a toenail further.
Didn’t that come out and it was a massive disappointment. Wasn’t there a digital foundry video?
Found it
I though the performance upgrade was better for RT, but maybe I got my data mixed up... the 5080, is a sack of BS upgrade... offers very little.
Hence nScamia
Let’s hope we get a 9070xt lvl of rt performance advancements next gen
holy shit, im putting together a list of Lackwell perf improvements VS ADA and its freaking disgustung
For AMD yeah... nVidia, just burnt their bridges with me... There is far to much Stockholm Syndrome with nVidia right now.
The practices they have employed recently have been pure scum, IMO.

if not for the 5060 and 5090 that would be 14%~
TPU,
WHHHYYYYY https://imgur.com/a/72a3dKF ?????
WHY USE PERCENTAGES FFS
that is awful really... Intel got slated years ago, for just having a 20% performace lift, gen after gen their CPU's. AMD was producing slop at the time, so Intel had the market. It was expensive and uninspiring. Then AMD came along and blew them out the water with the 5 series, and they aint looked back since.
I just hope Intel and AMD do the same to nScamia.
The gaming industry needs it... Just like it needs steam OS, and windows to die off.

14% uplif on avarage in raster
10% uplift on avarage in RT
improved RT cores my ass 
for all the shit ADA got when it launched, it was a MUCH better gen uplift wise
Isn't Stalker 2 using software ray tracing eitherways?
most UE games do
Dang...
unless there is an option for HW lumen/RT then its SW Lumen/RT
21%
god why is it so slow
What's your internet? 😅
do a bandwidth speedtest
bruh why even try
in stalker you can use everything except HDDs
I mean come on though, Most games now (as that video shows too) do not handle well with a HDD xD
SSD's are cheap as
They should have used 9950X or 14900K for the verifying
the g2 model even had rattling issues
How do you make a Poduct that bad
Vienna, September 13th 2024
We have received reports from several customers and reviewers regarding NH-D15 G2 CPU coolers producing slight but audible rattling sounds when operating near maximum fan speed. The data we have collected through feedback indicates that 98.7% of the users do not experience this behaviour, but we fully understand that this is frustrating for those who are affected. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and have been working hard conducting a thorough root cause analysis and engineering suitable solutions for both existing heatsinks and future production.
Our root cause analysis has confirmed that this behaviour can occur due to severe shock in transit, which can slightly loosen the interlocking of the heatsink fins at the sides of the fin-stacks. If this interlocking becomes less tight and the fans operate near their maximum speed, the airflow may induce a minute vibration of the fins, which can result in slight rattling sounds.
if you cry about 5sec you can actually use a 5.0 ssd but it pretty much useless
its better to get a mid tier ssd with high capacity than fastest one
Crucial P3 4TB > everything unless there is a better deal
they should have made better interlocks for 150€
All that storage for GTA6 
Cake i get now 220 FPS in BF6. With 4 Ecores the game runs the fastest
rockstar optimize their games tbh , RDR2 runs amazing for the graphics it has
Yea tho storage will be higher then stalker for sure.
All the other Ecores are taking too much Cache
if the game itself is good , doesnt matter if the size is big
so disabling Ecores helps 
Yea bigger size doesnt mean worst game i mean it should mean better game
Getting the textures the size of the map. The Coded AI
the cars the phys models
i have done this experiment with 10 games
its 1-5 +/- fps in games
so doesnt matter in the end
and i mostly lost fps tbh
That prob because Other games use the P cores only. BF6 uses E cores too
And them running and using the cache is taking cache form the Pcores that are much faster.
have u tested it with on vs off and seeing the fps gain?
Yes i tested on and off and only 4 E cores enabled
THe 4 method did help the most
how much fps did u get
Tho i dont know yet if less or more cores help it even more there needs to be testing done. In anyways Intel needs to update APO for Bf6.
All Off 200
but it dipped more often and somehow had stutters
few stutters but still had some
nova lake x3d cache models 😼
I like that the Future is so bright with AMD, INTEL, NVIDIA getting their arms ready. Next gen going to be fire
Ye, on all fronts
also Raja making gpus from scratch again with his new team
More big players
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqnjiEOHx78
Lol got it recomended rn
DAMN 2 CCDs with 3D?
gonna be probably more expensive than last time
and 16 P cores
52 cores in total
The 4 LPE cores are really alone lol what are they going to do i wonder
Is HT back? Cuz i did read that they think leaving HT was a mistake
i dunno probably not cus of how many cores there are
i think there was a slide showing remove HT they couldve put like 40% more e cores smth
I mean E cores are just the new P cores by now
they will eventually surpass P cores in ipc and speed lol
ive seen one guy make his e cores faster than P cores when tuning them with arrow lake
Yea they are so fast now. Even on the 14900K you can OC the Cores to 4.8. Big headroom tho the heat of that thing is basically Useless 
only where intel can win is 1% lows with their architecture but amd wins in avg high fps
Yea for sure. Sad that intels fabs are not even really done so they use TSMC. Thats gonna be expensive.
But do you think Intel really going to get a I7 with One hole CCD turned off? Sounds like wastefull. All the 8 Pcores and 16 Ecores gone.
hmm
i thought AMD won there too 🤔
In this gen yea they are king of the hill. but its more cuz AMD has so much FPS that the 1% low is just sometimes over intels Avg
9800X3D: avarage is 37% higher than 1%
14900K: avarage is 39% higher than 1%
285K: avarage is 38% higher than 1%
according to HUB
dunno if they made a follow up for Error Lake
Could be after all the Bios updates the 1% low did fall of. Cuz i remember that intel had better 1% low but thats it.
Maybe it was GN?
Yea its GN he has benchmarks of games that had much better 1% lows % wise
i like crashtor Lake. Can kinda relate 
how many times have you replaced your CPU again ?
god you poor thing
i gotta ask, if you ever need to upgrade, will you consider intel as an option ?
after what they did to you

now no
probably in the future if they get their shi together
no
I am either wait till AM6 or next gen if they are really that fast
||i wasnt asking you : D|| but i wouldnt either
i dont think its a sane choice to get any intel arch that isnt lunar lake
Lunar lake seems pretty damn good AFAIK
my bet is on amd
Zen 6 skipping 2 nodes + maybe specialized TSMC node
6.5GHZ very likely
ZEN 5~ CPU efficiency and ADA/RDNA 4 level GPU efficiency
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltgyS8oJC8g GN is the best
PC HW jeezus has returned
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3638110/Shadow_Project_Demo/
new game (demo) inspired by stalker appeared on steam yesterday, looks really good on paperr.
I think the next gen or two of Intel cpus will be interesting
all of this is good, but ngreedia is the best
worst GPU this gen (value wise)

5060 TI 8GB
best GPU this gen (value wise)

9070 XT
9060XT 16GB
r e a l

thought you'd say 5060 TI : D
i would personally buy 5060 ti 16GB cus i mess around with cuda
But i would recommend to people 9060 xt 16GB for gaming
ahh, yeah, i mean for work and AI NvidAI is just better
As i seem harsh towards AMD is because i know they can do better
Sounds like good way to get instantly banned in any game thats got anti cheat lol
Yea
this is why i somewhat dont like the hybrid architecture
Can be a pain for games and scheduler
My cousin went to microcenter and was able to buy a 9060xt 8gb for $220 lol
It is crazy for awhile 5070 was best value card. Now imo the 9070 at $599 is getting to be good value
I mean, honestly
500-700 bucks for a 12gb vram is hardly a good deal, nevermind a "best value" imo
like yeah, 5060ti doesn't have that much over a 3070 but at least it's 16 gigs and you can get it for under 400
wasn't on the market during the 4ks but the pricing of the 5ks is a clusterfuck imo
5070 feels to me like prebuilt fodder designed to give just enough performance to ensure whoever gets it will be lining up for the 6ks when they come out 'cause half the games they're playing are complaining about their vram
well if the difference betweene xt and non-xt versions is jsut a 100$ - i dont think that it`ll be that good of an option
and 5070 is just a 100$ cheaper then 9070
yeah, 9070xt is the clear winner of this gen unless nvidia gets off their high horse
Reason: Bad word usage
Reason: Bad word usage
wolf pls
lmao, it's so wild to be looking at benchmarks and seeing like "stalker 2: 77 fps"
like it's so wild to me that a 900 nvidia gpu can't even break 80 fps on ultra @1440p
at 4k 4090 got abt 60fps
star wars outlaws: 75, stalker 2: 84, silent hill 2 remake, 9070xt can't even break 60
well as i heard - sh2 is just poorly optimized. as i heard - it renders the fog and everything behind it, even things that you cant see
yeah yeah but I mean isn't it crazy that almost a 4 figure gpu can't break triple digits on games launched in 2024
I mean I'm not sure how accurate these benchmarks are but 5070ti 53 fps at 4k ultra in motherclucking hogwarts legacy?!
well s2 is ue5, sh2 is poorly optimized and swo - is ubisoft game
would love to see the numbers on mohun wilds too
games are not quite good optimized as before, because they now have stuff that can just make frames up and gpus dont have that much of performance gain per gen
yeah, wilds relying on framegen to make it to 60 fps on like 80% of the gpus on the market is... certainly a choice
imo it's less that and more "hey look how much more coke money we can make if we fire the entire QA department!"
"and the game comes out sooner too! it's win win win! snooorrrrtt"
nah i think its more like: we can make more games in less time and get more money for each, even without proper optimisation - why would they care to fix it?
yeah what could possibly happen if videogame companies flood the market with hastily made, poor quality, expensive products
well noone seems to care
good news is that nowadays there's going to be less et cartridges in landfills I guess
I mean idk, I would have to ask monolith, tango gameworks and arkane austin if they care
but I get what you mean, they will get away with it, for a while
well if nothing changes - then they will just get away with it. but at least i hope that ubisoft will cease its existance soon
maybe then companies will start to listen to their customers
I... guess? I mean I don't remember any recent ubi games being particularly badly made or overpriced (for ubisoft)
well actually, come to think of it skull and bones was a gigantic flop of a "AAAA game"
they are being marketed as "AAA" = then they should be treated as such and criticised as such
and general practices of ubisoft like shutting down the crew entirely and not letting people do anything with it
I don't particularly understand why people are getting so hung up on that particular game shutting down its servers
well I mean I do know why, ross scott has been making a huge stink about it for a while now, and he picked that particular one to launch his crusade with
cause its a precident. what is the point of not letting people play at least offline modes?
iyam there's better games to make a stink about than the crew of all things, but yeah, I get it I guess.
I'm more concerned about the price-quality ratio of games released in the last couple years than that in particular, personally.
again, its not the game itself that draws attention, but the intention - you buy the game and then company gets to decide when to just cease its existance whenever it becomes inconvenient for them. the crew is just a beginning - game that not so much people cares about
yeah yeah I've unfortunately been subscribed to accursed farms for like 10 years at this point, I get it.
well technologies like dlss and fg plays a big role in it, but still good optimisation cant exuse poor writing
and also i know about this whole situation wit the crew and other just because of the roach king
93% downloaded 
an entire day went by 
it's weird to me how outputting to 1080p and then upscaling to 4k on a second gpu is less intensive for both gpus than outputting at 2k and upscaling to 4k
I mean you'd imagine it'd be harder on the first and lighter on the second, but no, it increases load on both
it's also true that a 3x upscale looks worse than a 2x which looks worse than a 1.5
rendering at 1080p then upscaling to 4K will of course be less intensive than rendering at 1440p then upscaling to 4K.
if it wasnt then upscaling would be pointless
I mean common sense would dictate that a 2x upscale would be more intensive than a 1.5
...but I guess if you're upscaling from 2k you're working with a bigger picture to begin with
it IS but that cost is outweighted by the fact that you are rendering at a lower res
i'll come with some actual upscaler millisecond costs
the 3070 is only upscaling
why the heck would you do that
CAN you even do that ?
sure, lossless scaling
oh, so you are using FSR 1.0
LOL
ls1 for the scaling
LS1 = tweaked FSR 1.0
been trying the several methods it has, ls1 is the best one imo
point is, upscaling from 2k to 4k loads the 3070 more than 1080p to 4k, only upscaling.
picture also looks better, which I guess makes sense, you're starting with a larger sample to begin with
just use DLSS, its SOO much better than FSR 1
whats the original rendering resolution then ???
I mean I was using 1080p dlaa originally, but dlss quality to 2k looks better honestly
5060 is outputting to 2k, then 3070 is upscaling it to 4k
why? Because I have a spare 3070 that would be otherwise gathering dust
worth it? Not massively. But I won't deny it looks better than just 2k
well, i lied, its cheaper, actually
FSR 4 AA: 07ms
FSR 4 Q: 0.67ms
FSR 4 B: 0.66ms
FSR 4 P: 0.65ms
what i find most fun is how everyone thinks that FSR 4 is heavier than 3.1
meanwhile at native AA FSR 4 is actually cheaper
FSR 3.1: 0.79ms
FSR 4: 0.71ms
"Advanced gaming" AKA minecraft ?
https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-launches-radeon-rx-7400-designed-for-advanced-gaming-with-43w-gpu-power
UH i guess i am GPU limited??? I set Ultra P FSR in bf6 and got straight more fps then before. AMDs overlay is saying GPU is at 99% while Steam is saying 86% idk who to believe
Msi afterburner
Adrenaline I’d trust more.
Advanced gaming aka solitare
Huh?
English please?
so im playing S2 RN
finished downloading it
and surprise surprise, FSR 4 still broken : (
i think i know why too
the quality mode of FSR in game upscales from 721p, which is probably why the driver override picks model 0
when using optisacler and using the right model for quality upscaling the game is just insanely blurry
it is crazy, how blurry it gets
like TAA level blur
Whaat
my CPU is also absolutely dying
im getting less fps CPU limited right now than i was a year ago
thats insane
Also, FSR 2.3 at balanced and below is better than 3.1
TSR is better in this game than FSR 4 if you go below native AA WTF
XeSS straight up sucks
its blurry like FSR 4 but its also somehow more shimmery than FSR 2.3
that is what i'd call an acomplishment
When ill be home - ill test it. I got like 60% usage of my cpu in s2
what's the game called
Stutter 2, heart of the great stutter
Doesnt work.
Yea with FSR P its saying 85-90%
So from german translated they say they tested with searching the same map every time and testing on there.
Now they dont say what res but they say that they used Max setting you can use. So prob 1080P with Max Setting.
Also they have custom power limits by the looks with the U9 at 253W and 9950X3D at 200W.
But at the end they say we cant take the benchmark serious.
12600k is 4 years old not that old ;'D, bro sounding like he didnt build a pc for 50 years

Bro thinks that the upgrade from the 2060 to 5060 Ti 16GB is significant but the upgrade to the 9060 16GB magically isn't 
there's a reason why i don't have reddit 
BF6 won’t let me launch because of secure boot not being enabled, interesting.
So anyway, rip call of duty.
Reddit is another league. I would loose brain cells reading all of that
gotta spread word of amd so they get market share 
Yea they updated half a year BF2042 so that you only can play it with secure boot.
Market share is boring.
no market share no adoption no buy no amd
Strange requirement but okay I guess. Not a huge deal.
BF2042 was locked after i played again in January. DId not get the massage that the game somehow need Secure boot.
Well that game was sorta poo anyway.
Really a crazy time to be alive 
Long as COD finally gets put in its place I’m all for it.
https://prnt.sc/7yYt0Sw_rsGs
i wonder how it is in 2025 now in Q2
cus these are older numbers
gives u the scope
w11 did require secure boot to begin with, I don't think a windows game requiring it would be that crazy
I think it doesn't require it now because bios is hard, but the idea was to require it
maan, no matter what I do I just get several flavors of 50 fps
which I mean it's fine, but I can't seem to dial down the sweet spot
it's weird 'cause I'm getting mostly the same performance on all 4 dlss presets in 1440p, and mucking around with several quality presets, output resolution is the only thing that seems to be a noticeable effect
the only noticeable performance hit was maybe foliage, but the popping in "medium" is just nuts
Anticheat req really

Hope my new gpu will have good OC undervolt
In europe you get 5 year waranty with Zotac
Wish devs just optimize their games so i wont have to upgrade anymore on 1440p
Yes, I’m aware.
don't really know the nitty gritty of it but nightingale upgraded to ue5.4 and performance is night and day
before it couldn't hold a decent framerate to save its life and now it runs like an absolute dream
by which I mean a hypothetical upgrade of stalker 2 to 5.4 could bring insane performance gains
I wonder how difficult it is
not really sure how hard it would be, probably there's a reason they haven't done it yet I guess
To upgrade, i dabbled in game dev but dno about upgrading versions
Maybe it will break too many things, and then they'd have to spend another 6 months to refix all the bugs
And they just want to add content vs refixing bugs
idk, it's not like nightingale has been swimming in success, exactly
though I'm sure there's a million ways to skin a cat when it comes to software development
plus I guess gsc are busy trying to flesh out the sdk first and foremost
Fsr 3.1.4 apparently will have all the features of redstone ?
Such an insane upgrade for 7900XTX users
https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/zotac-rtx-5070-ti-apocalypse-oc.b12559
Makes me mad Zotac keeps this to the chinese market
It had 18 vrms vs 14 of the AMP Extreme infinity ultra
And a beefier cooler (if thats even possible)
wish I could upgrade to a 5800x3d
but it's just not worth it
and upgrading to am5 is way too expensive to make sense as well
Useless, they ont produce anymore
Price are too high
5800x/5700X3D are still good upgrade for AM4
I grabbed 5700X3D for 2 of my entourage when it was 150 eur on aliexpress before it goes out of stock
Such a blessing man.. sad it doesnt stay there as an option at that price range
My friend had a ryzen 2600 told him to upgrade to 5700X3D
Best 150-170 eur he spent for his rig i think
I mean next purchase is going to be an am5 prebuilt. It just doesn't make sense to spend money on am4 at this point
but that's going to be in a year or two, maybe once the next generation launches
nope.
Does anyone know if the amd fidelityFX sdk works same as xess 2.1 sdk ? Like can I download it and manual swap dll files to get latest upscaler/frame gen models in games?
the 3.1.4 plugin/SDK just added some inputs that are going to be required for ML FSR FG
Maybe with the newest update you can swap dll files to get latest fsr model for games that cant use OptiScaler
if fact
i belive you can also swap the 3.1 DLL with the FSR 4 one
might be wrong though
Is like dlss swapper but for fsr ?
From what I read that is what it is seeming to be. Or they are giving us tools to access that easy later when it comes maybe
if swapping the DLL to the FSR 4 one doesnt work
then the AMD profile inspector will
as long as a game has 3.1
The profile inspector does the same thing for me right? It just swaps the dll files needed to get the fsr model i choose or something?
I havent looked into it much yet. Been lazy lol
well it lets you whitelist whatever game you'd like
This is official from AMD software tool?
nope. community, on github
Reason: Bad word usage
In mafia old country my gpu is consistently staying over 3ghz clock at stock adrenalin settings
In like every other game at stock settings I swear im lucky if it hits 2.8ghz usually lol
its a shit optimized game, and runs on checks notes...UE5...
It is running pretty good for me
And replacing libxess.dll files with the xess sdk dll files you can use xess frame gen on most gpus. These sdk's are such nice things
I even played at fsr/xess native 1440p all Epic settings with frame gen on getting 70-100 fps depending on area and i still didn't notice any significant ghosting or input latency on mouse & keyboard
what gpu?
9070
2k only published and it really isnt that bad. The visuals are pretty insane imo. The low fps is justified to me
Hey it was more worth getting the 5800X3D, not having to change the moba or ram. Then it was to get a 9800X3D but having to change all 3 parts xD
The 5090 is truly a great graphics card... just don't look at the price 😉
For 50 series i think the only i personally would consider are 5070ti and 5070
Can get 9060xt for best price to performance for anything under 5070 and anything over 5070ti might as well get 5090 lol unless 5080 super launches fr then might change things up
I was looking at 5070's and 80's.
But a 9070xt is half the cost here (roughly) and performs around the same
Comparing same brand, 5080 to 9070xt
5080 is $2500 9070xt is $1350
Yeah it is a bit less than 5070ti in raster I think 5% and ray tracing 9070xt is still pretty good imo. Path tracing still needs redstone and probably next gen to be truly viable but it technically can be ran
How much is 5070ti ?
I would not even touch 5070 with it bad 12GB. Thats is more a performance loss
$1900 (Going by the same brand/manufacture)
Well here in US there are models for technically under msrp at $548.99 lol
I would get 9070xt tbh
Oh i'm fine with the card i have 😂 But from a sheer cost pov, Amd wins for sure xD
Wait what is cheapest 9070xt vs cheapest 5070ti vs cheapest 5080? Or is there only specific models you want? Oh nvm lol scratch that
even that is not worth it. Why would i buy NVidia if not for the RT and for that the 12GB are just not enough
Yeah was looking at same brand, same oc model. Just the chips were different 👍
Even 9070 beats it sometimes in RT just cuz of the extra 4GB
There are still quite a few games that can play path tracing and/or ray tracing at 4k with 12gb and definitely 1440p & 1080p. Nvidia somehow uses less vram compared to radeon i swear lol voodoo magic
CP77?
Cost is a big factor, Even if the 5080 beats the 9070xt... when it costs nearly double the amount but the performance is maybe 10% more xD Well
On my 9070 somehow when I go from psycho RT ultra everything to path tracing ultra everything I use less vram. ~13gb with psycho and ~11.5 - 12.5gb with PT
Unless that is just allocation maybe. Is FB usage % in RTSS afterburner more accurate value ?
If i had the money i'd buy a 9070xt in a heartbeat xD
Then 9070XT is the better option no? 5080 gives how much? 20% more FPS maybe so to pay 2X is not worth it
5080 is not worth it at all for anyone idc lol it is terrible price to performance
Depends on the game of course, some games have a dif of 10fps. Some have a dif of 40
Which is not double, which is not worth double the price xD
5080 super with more vram for like same msrp as 5080 would be the way to go for nvidia imo
But what does that resolve, It would still come down to cost no for the consumer?
They will do same thing they did with 4080 super hopefully. 5080 super will be msrp of 5080 and 5080 will drop in price
not even then cuz we still would have the 5070TI super with same vram
For some reason I thought 5070ti super was only getting 18gb or 16gb still. Idk for sure
@hollow kettle I will say btw, i got my 3080 at launch for $1500 AUD
Which i think was a normal price here
"Leaks" say its 24gb but if they do 5070TI with 21 or 18 it would make more sense but still the 5080S would need to stay at same price without changing the price of the 5070TI Super
I think they will do 18gb 5070 and 18gb 5070ti super & 24gb 5080 super honestly that is my prediction. I could be totally wrong though so pls dont take this as fact 😂
Make them all the msrp of the base models and then lower base model cost slightly
That would be like printing money for nvidia lol throw 5090ti in here too with 48gb 😂
The 5090 is already $5500-6000 here xD HOW MUCH FURTHER CAN THEY GO!!! 😭
RTX 6090 will be $5000 USD msrp
Double 5090 performance (with 16x mfg 2.0) and 33gb vram instead of 32gb

Super duper multi-wulti frame generator AI edition
and will be a great fireplace that needs a little less energy, then 1 npp can produce
Unless they cripple memory bus thats bs
18gb is not possible since they dont mismatch chips
Only options really are something braindead even for nvidia 8x1GB or 8x3GB
I thought they could do the 3gb gddr7 modules to get 18gb
256bit needs 8 chips
My fan that is making the weird loud noise in MSI center keeps jumping up from ~900rpm to ~10000rpm every few seconds
Rear exhaust fan made like a loud grinding noise the other day and ever since it has sounded wobbly if that makes sense
It is very loud as it spins. Well, at least much louder than any of the other fans. It is almost like a whirring sound like it is straining to spin? Idk hard to describe. Just hope my fan didnt die after not even 9 months of use at 50% speed
I mean it does sound like the motor has giving up on it 🤔
Yeah if i switch it to manual instead of Smart and set it to 75% or 100% it sounds like it is about to fly off there lol
Setting it to 100% it is bouncing between 3243 rpm wnd 2714 rpm 🤔
3000? 👀
The only other fans of same model are my 3 intake. Setting one of those to 100% gets just under 3000 rpm but it is way more steady. Only bouncing between 2850-2992
Lordy what fans are you using that go that high rpm?
Lol my gpu fans are over 3000 even at like 60%
I set one other intake fan to 100% and it shows only 2000 rpm
I normally just set my pump fan 100%, cpu fan 75%, the other 4 case fans on auto smart tune
2800 xD
I'd say the bearing is just gone on it 🤷♂️
Those are some high rpm case fans, just surprised
It is the case fans that came in IBuyPower prebuilt lol Slate 6 Mesh. Actually not bad. Size is good for me and has very good airflow it seems. Temps always low even in a hot room. So I just kept this case for now 
But yeah I never replaced a fan before. Can I just get any fan or?
Usually they are pretty universal, 120mm or 140mm.
Why aren't they making their own game?
These games have been historically made by Hangar 13? When did that change?
Yeah Hangar 13 developed, 2k published
2K owns Hangar 13 though?
Hangar 13 is a divison of 2K.
Cfx.re is a division of Rockstar Games, same concept there, too.
Oh lol I didn't know that
Check this out though it is hilarious 😂 https://videocardz.com/newz/gigabyte-says-pay-smarter-and-promotes-incompatible-z890-i5-14600k-bundle
Depends on what you consider worth it, I mean eventually we're all gonna get new mobos.
if I'm spending 300 bucks on a cpu, might as well do it on a socket I can get a couple gens out of
...then again I'm the idiot who just dropped 80 on a new motherboard in the vague hope that going from pcie 3.0 to pcie 4.0 would do anything for my framerate, so ynow
Ah it was worth a shot. And it made for an entertaining sunday morning.
We are getting there i think, but not quite at the limit of PCIe 3 yet for gpu's
i dont think supers ever had higher MSRP so i doubt
waiting 1.5 years is just such a long ass time tho
how much do you think a 7900xtx used 2 years hellhound should sell for
sold it for 600 eur
(but it was a bad model, heats quite a bit, draws 450w peak sometimes, and only maxes out with oc on 31-32k timespy + coilwhine, and no more warranty)
and bought a 5070ti for 785 eur Zotac amp extreme infinity, should have 5 years warranty if i manage to register it on their website
700€
no way, new is 800-850
32k mhz is actually good no a bad model
But you know that people don’t want to sell that low even if 850€ is new.
Here in Germany people are greedy as hell.
For a old entry 2017 pc they want 400€. With some I5 and 1050.
As we say here "jeden tag steht ein dummer auf" ^^
yea i mean i kept my gpu at 800 then 700
True
for good 3-4 months, in the end i caved for 600 quick sale fkit
One of us
no i mean, i kept it on sale
no one was biting, some guy wanted it for 500 eur, bro's crazy
what should i set for my 2070super? 800,- grand? xD
It’s crazy you can make your offer lower than average and somehow a guy comes in and says that he wants it for 2/3 of the price
I would go on oled full in
4K 240hz oled or one where it has 2 modes for 480hz
I prefer a native 1440p monitor than a 4k one that can do 1440p
Guys is TN that bad? I found a good deal but it's TN

To make a modern game run well
remember when we used to say 1080 ti is a 4k gpu
but they have a limited colourspace
so pick your poision
allright
time to benchbark stalker 2
and test the upsclaers
fastforward to 2025, we pay 1k for a gpu to run a game 4k upscaled from 1080p and use frame generation to add fake frames
no point going for TN unless you are a professional fps player

You can play bf6 at 1440p native res at 80 fps on medium using a b580
really ? damn
thank god someone optimizing games, any gpu 5070+ should be able to run any game 2k high fps
oh shiii i got upgraded, now i got a blue color
long live the promotion
seems the problem comes from just UE
It’s really fast ms and you can find with high hz but not really something for story games
I say after the beta we will have more optimization from so much data

Even using the cpu in bf6 as a server would be faster than that XD
isnt it also not supported on amd
no AMD doesnt have that either
theyve Never had it
since its NGREEDIA proprietary tech
jeez
i forgot how bad this game was
like this game is the showcase of everything wrong with UE 5
blur, boilng, shimmering, stuttering, atrocious performance, crazy CPU requirenments, mid graphics all in a nice big package
FSR 4 even at native AA is blurry AF unless you apply in game sharpening
XeSS/TSR/TAA/FSR 2.1 are all even worse
its insane
then there's the fact that the devs want you to compile shaders EVERY TIME you launch the game
JEEZ
JUST create a godamn shader cache that you can then use forever so you dont have to run it everytime
this serves NO purpose
and no, having a skip button doesnt excuse this
since if you skip it, you are actually just making it compile the shaders on the fly

i told this friendto upgrade to 5700x3d when it was 150-170 eur
but now he is having stutters, i think it's his ram right
i think he' alwas had stutters
just that his performance was so low he couldnt notice
also, that RAM is terrible
Apparently he disabled XMP because it was causing his screen to freeze but he could hear the game still working through his headset, he could move and everything but the image was frozen

have you tried TAA upscaling between 65-80% and get those numbers up.
Is FSR 4 even working properly yet S2?
TAA upscaling ???????thats the worst of the worst, in fact it wouldnt do any upscaling at all
im using optiscaler so FSR 4 is working as intended
even if the game looks like crap IMO
hey
TAA? Sure it does upscalling, I use on my 9070xt
wdym, stalker looks amazing
are you sure you arent confusing TAA with TSR ?
I think it is TAA
does it have crazy ghosting on literally everything ?
if no, its not TAA
Not noticed that
give me a few hours, and I will install the game again, just so I can get things sorted for you.
you dont have to go that far
its fine, having a afternoon nap
Msrp PNY 5080 if you are in USA
I might buy one myself. A grand for only 16gb vram is hard to go through with though
I am going to do a new build sometime before the end of the year. Make it a Christmas gift to myself. And oooo boy im going all out on it idc If I spend $5000 😁
huh
ive restarted the game
and it looks decent again
WTH
Should I do another build or should I get a new case, rgb, make it a updated build to better match the white/grey/rgb of my gpu. Throw 9800x3D in with New Mb and ram 🤩
just wait 5 months for super
i think for 5K you can buy a 5090 
Assuming nvidia doesnt slap extra 300 on the price sake of it
nvidia gotta be looking at numbers and be like "huh so these rubes will buy a 5070ti for 900 bucks huh"
"we don't even need to make excuses with cryptomining or anything huh"
they never made the super more expensive no ?
To be fair its mostly just workspace people who are screaming for that vram since they dont want to pay 5k for workspace gpu
Generally supers are more expensive
Its kinda funny really.. I know few AI startups that were bitching on forum how 5080 had only 16GB vram so they were forced to buy 20 5090 for their AI needs
we need a 5090 super with the new 3gb vram module
Even with staying same MSRP. 5080 Super could have the "shortage" we had before. Drop feeding us
6090 with the 3gb vram module 🗿
Doubt it will happen but you will never know
48gb 3nm 6090
Probably how well 5070 ti super sells to show them people will absolutely buy the exactly same card with more vram
if that doesnt run 4k there is a problem
AI startups will bot the living hell out of it because all they really need is more vram lol
We are in same hole as was with mining craze but now its just AI generated anime tiddies
Would be nice to know how many of these cards are actually backroom dealt or "fall off the truck" since how crazy these start ups act with cards it would not be surprising how they try to get a deal before cards even ship
all of this for them to do 3nm 60 series and make the 6070 as good as the 5070ti super card
but costing the same 
Rereleasing the 4070 Ti Super Extreme New edition
the 6070 will be the new 2nm 600$ msrp 4070Ti Super Extreme Ultra Plus
quote me in 1.5 years when they release
Fever dream to think it will be 600 dollars
2nm at 600(0)$?
ynow what, you do have a point
nvidia looking at people paying 4 figures for a 5070ti like 👀
"2nm" lol it's not 2nm, how they will do when it's will be lower than 1nm marketing description
1000msrp for 6070, 1500 for 6070ti, 2000 for 6080 and a dirt-cheap 6090 for a fair price of just a bit over 2000$ - 4599
I think TSR at ultra quality, upscale at 80, gives a nice performance buff...
Getting around 90FPS in the rural areas.
between 53-65 in Rostok, depending if I am moving around or not
Of course you could go as low as 60-65, and get even more perforamnce.

a whole extra 4fps
but still
and a medium its another 6fps
best middle ground I've been able to find myself on the 5060ti is medium present, 1440p, dlss quality.
it almost gets up to 60 fps when out and about, but most of the time it's 50-55 fps. Which is alright honestly.
then I'll get close to a village and things will slow down to a crawl but that's cpu and there's not much I'm willing to do about it
I'm just giddy to see just how shit things get once I get to sircaa
It’s over

What CPU you got?
R5 5500
yeah, that ain't good at all.
have you looked into getting an upgrade?
to be frank, stalker 2 works like shit with anything am4 unless you're talking 5800x3d
though you may be fucked now cus am4 is finally dead
no more x3d cpus are coming
the supply finally ran out
and I see very little point in dropping 300 bucks on a top of the line cpu on a deprecated socket
it really does suck that a game launched in 2024 is basically incapable of running decently on am4 but it is what it is
with sky rocketing ram prices
as samsung also recently finally turned off the tap for ddr4
running valo on igpu of 7800x3d
what a chad igpu, really wanna see intel celestial
im excited to see the possible dual ccd v cache cpu drop
bf6 might be the first game that could take advantage of it
What do you guys think for new build? Hopefully you can see my parts list. It is mainly for productivity and AI tasks. Plus i want to get into CAD and maybe some 3D design stuff
https://pcpartpicker.com/user/swanny098/saved/#view=VfnkjX
been thinking about it
either 7600 or 5700X3D at this point
Kinda looks like it with it using all of my cores and from people with 9950x also using 100%
it does the same for my 7950x3d
Intel now also like activating brain cells with their 3d with 2 ccd versions and amd doing the same.
You know you could do the gamble and wait for zen6 and if they are fire you could buy that or you do a really low end cpu am5 jump with a 8400f
Only thing intel is doing is laying off its people and halting building fabs
BUT they now realized 3d is the future what they denied half a year ago them saying that there is no worries cuz they are so “dominant “
I was pleasantly surprised with how smooth BF6 ran last weekend, 1% lows were great and CPU/GPU usage were extremely steady on max settings
this is my actual list. sent wrong thing earlier https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hstK9C
what do you guys think?
I mean i just laugh anyone buying intel cpu's so i dont really have any input
Me personally I would say it’s not a good build. First you would pay in to a dead platform. Maybe wait till next gen intel.
Second I really don’t know what exactly productivity means
Why? It is not a gaming rig. Well, it is but it aint lol
But still dead platform and what you can get out of amd
By time i would need to upgrade cpu there will be one socket change anyway so that really is no issue for me personally
Idk which ryzen cpu would match 265k in video editing and AI and stuff and still cost around same price
Doubt cuz if the talks about next gen intel are real then they would have 4 gens on one platform
Pretty much every cpu that has more than 8 cores
The top productivity charts are 9950x and intel with its 9 whatever number in sec
for $280 usd idk any ryzen that can match the productivity performance but i havent looked that hard into it. Just seems like with the intel price cuts this 265k might be best budget option for productivity
What do you mean productivity first place like davici? Adobe?
Adobe premium pro, LLMs and generative AI stuff, trying to get into learning CAD
What abbreviation is CAD?
AI?
"CAD, or Computer-Aided Design, is a technology that uses computer systems to assist in the creation, modification, analysis, and optimization of a design."
from google: "It's used by engineers, architects, and designers to create precise 2D and 3D drawings and models for various applications, from buildings and machinery to entire cities."
Ah that thing. Is your budget 3k or like before 5k?
trying to keep close to 3k as possible lol
Is this something like a momentary fancy or long term commitment?
what do you mean? i had to change monitor and motherboard now here is updated list if u wanna see https://pcpartpicker.com/list/NXqBnp
Yea that’s also something cuz you could start with low end system like the 14600k that you have now. It’s still really good and capable cpu. As long you have k version and not f you can try experimenting with the igpu.
You just need to upgrade your gpu even for more simple things.
Beginner don’t need a really high end cpu, gpu because you gonna run ai and that is dirty slow on 8gb
I mean if this is long term situation get bigger PSU
Since eventually wall will come and you get something as stupid as 90 class to speed up things
there is same be quiet! 12M model in 1000w
If you tho really insist on u7 I would get faster ram ngl else it makes it useless
but that puts me $3023
PSU is the longest lasting part on your pc along with the case tbh
with gigabyte z890 eagle motherboard cant i OC cpu and ram if i want?
I was going to just get 48gb ram but idk if it is enough for the stuff im wanting to do
There is extra ram for intel you can buy for 8000+ mhz but I don’t know the pricing rn
Do you know what it is called?
I mean ram is easy enough to switch in future
I don’t remember but I bet pleb knows
I do?
I guessed since you hate intel that much that u would know it in and out
It’s called cu-dimm
240€ for 8400mhz and 48gb
Kinda salty price
Imo only thing I would buy with ultra CPUs
Yea but not far from his 180$
And mine is Germany maybe cheaper in us
Question here is is the speed or amount more relevant for the workload?
Depending on the task
Since for that price you can go to 64
Or even 96 kits i have seen at that price
Still think its heretical to have 48 and 96GB ram lol
Intel is great. If they’d stop being silly.
They just need to get their head out of their rear
What is this for? This is quite overpriced.
Workstation more or less
Samsung 9100 is…an odd choice.
True but we are talking about a cpu that is actually under delivering with that ram.
Or least buy faster ones. And intel can get really fast with cu beating amd at productivity tho idk how gaming is going vs 3d
265k in gaming is within a few % of my 13600kf
Cheapest 4TB PCIe 5.0 m.2 im guessing
the 9100 pro is -26% off on amazon
So... Cheapest lol
Why does it need to be 5.0?
AI shenanigans probably
$349 for 4tb gen 5 m.2 nvme. For these tasks like CAD i think it is better
not for sure though. I only remember that ssd is what you want for CAD
But idk if that meant any ole 2.5 sata ssd or what
I would say you right on gaming but he going to move large data and 5.0 comes handy
Such as?
Adobe AI and 3d design.
Yeah the AI stuff i think benefits from those faster r/w speeds i think. I know for sure 3D rendering and 4k/8k video editing would benefit from gen 5. Gen 4is still plenty good dont get me wrong. Just might as well get the gen5 if it can help with the things i plan to do and it is within budget
Well my 2 cents is just that get enough headroom with the PSU. Once you know more about your workloads you know what you need and it helps if power delivery is there in place because its always pain in the rear to swap it out later
Now thats more decent
Yeah I got the be quiet 1000w psu now instead of 750w
Reason: Bad word usage
i am super hyped for the next gen intel cpus' igpu
I would upgrade to an AM5 to behonest.
I got my 7900, RAM, MB on a bundle sale from scan... Saved £150
really low end AM5 isnt exactly on the table as an option for me
plus, the 8400F is yet again, a sabotaged 7600
so then im back at square 1
sabotage in this case means : has half the cache it should
just meant for you to be on am5 for next gen for a really low price or a 7500f. Both would be a Upgrade for you.

any chance for texture packs for stalker ?
Cant you change LOD bias on Nvidia? Do that
Megalight from 5.5 will be absolute cinema if they use it
Increase Lumen performance
the biggest improvement will be CPU performance
being able to run zalissya at 60 fps gon be yuge
finally this game will work properly(it should`ve been like this from the beginning)
for some reason UE devs have only really focused on increasing CPU performance so far
I mean you can only improve from "zero"
The uplift don’t count the updates till it. Only the switch update
untill you do i refuse to vote 
They supposed to be % but i forgor @%
i'd say 15% for CPU and 5% on GPU
10% isn’t even that much at 60fps but those Hubs gonna be nicht better I would say.
It just seems more stable and less artifacts/latency than fsr fg imo
it has less artifacts
latency is the same if its XeFG + XeLL VS FSR FG + AL2
plus it can interpolate UI
which means that developer skill issue cant harm it as much as FSR FG
From what I hear, anti lag 2 isnt working in cyberpunk properly. But I heard that before 25.8.1 so idk if it changed
Which is why i switched to use xess fg and XeLL in the first place. I also like how it gives you a frame rate target slider for XeLL in that game
well
in cyberpank FSR FG is just straightup broken too
wassup guys. Pretty new to stalker, basically never played before. Anyways, I have a relatively ok pc, i5 10400, rtx 3060, 24gb of ram. The game has horrible framerates, and I am not sure if its a problem with the fact that im using arch, or if my system is inadequate. Can anyone assist? I get around 30-45 frames on 2k low with dlss on performance, and i get the same framerates on 1080p medium settings. if i enable fsr then i do hit 60 frames, but it still looks kinda janky.
*please note that while the game is native to linux, I am forced to run it through proton since steam is acting like an ass and doesnt let me close the global compatibility for games.
which 3060 do you have
the gigabyte 12g OC rev.2
hmmmm
if the fps doesn't change between resolutions typically that means your cpu just can't hack it
but that doesnt really make sense to me. If that's the case, how come my CPU is at about 30-40% but my gpu is constantly at 99%?
oh
I know, I know, but my graphs show otherwise
I think the culprit is Arch, but I dont have dual boot to test it, It seems like thats gonna be my project for the weekend.
Yeah, its okay, thanks for assisting tho, much appreciated
You might gain FPS with better driver on the windows side.
Also you dont really see if you are CPU limited by looking at % of you CPU. You need to look at the GPU. Anything below 90% is CPU limited
#note a rather prolific youtuber i religiously follow very recently ran a linux vs windows benchmark on very similar hardware.
bottom line was that linux suffered 10-20% worse performance for no apparent reason.
you being on linux certainty not helping is a valid assumption
On a my previous config of Ryzen 7 5800x3d, 3060ti and 32GB Ram i got roughly the same performance you got on 2k with medium ish settings.
#That was on release.
Now with the same ryzen and ram but a 5070 i get 60-70 fps on 2k epic settings. edit/dlaa no fg
The 60 is simply not that hot, it running worse on 2k kinda confirms that.
That should take weight of the cpu incase of a bottleneck there.
Guys when do you think the team will be done with upgrading to ue 5.5.4?
The only thing i would f kill for now personally is better latency, gods knows why mine sucks ass like this.
who knows honestly. as far as i know - no games were updated from one ue5 to later version. maybe they`ll need to update their plugins that were made specifically for s2, maybe there will be a lot of problems, but maybe it will be a very smooth update and nothing will break and everything will be working with better performance
It’s going to take a long long while.
It's certainly not a "click one button and everything works perfectly fine" type of thing xD
Gonna be last min update before Q1
They say it's a target for 2025. I expect it to somehow get delayed until Feb/Mar 26
But I hope I'm wrong
Super cpu limited
I had a i5 11400f before and i upgraded to a 12600k and the game runs way smoother now on my rx 6700
ive seen 2 games upgrade their version of UE 5
and theres a massive diference in how well* the 2 dev teams did it
How?
one game did it pretty much perfectly (Game: Satisfactory 5.2 to 5.3)
no bugs, no major crashing issues, and better performance AFAIK
the other one was the complete opposite (game: ARK smear ascended 5.2 to 5.5)
a lot of bugs, lots of crashes, terrible performance for some systems, and worse performance for most (by like 30%)
how-well*
i'll edit the comment
ARK was already a mess before the upgrade, it just became more of a mess
Satisfactory was already mostly bugs free, it just got even less buggy, that game did release from early access to 1.0 though
Ark had/has many a performance issue xD
All they did there was polish the graphics
so it is very similar to stalker 
Well no? Stalker 2 doesn't have a "ascended" edition xP
similar in that they are both a buggy unoptimized mess.
Eh, true. But ark way more so xD
Really my only complaint with Stalker 2 is performance 😝
Solve/mitigate that, and i'm set (More set) xD
i beg to differ
in ARK my CPU can get 60fps without having much of an issue
in stalker im stuck between 30 and 40
AND ARK looks MUCH better
man
i wish i could make my 5070ti draw like a 3x8 power connector 7900XTX (they can spike up to 530W)
I feel so much juice is left on the table for the 5070ti because of its 300W tdp and it being coded in a way not to go over it
how safe is GPU shunt modding 
50/50
50% your GPU dies and 50% you die
i just want the gpu to think it's drawing 300W when it's drawing 330-350W
3 more power more heating 
I have it tho now a -10% so that the summer heat doesnt kill me
one of the reasons i sold mine
so 350w
but yea apparently the 3 cable one has a lot more room for OC and just flat out better perf
i love how amd just let the card take as much power as it needs, nvidia doesnt let us because they are nerfing the performance ffs
I guess i coulnt do anything against the summer heat. I could have a 400W PC and i would still sweet
you can disable your igpu man
That would not change anything
it does remove 30W
vs 600W?
hey man, trust me any small step helps
it can also help you reduce the heat outputed by your cpu
so your cooler can handle it more easily
IGPU doing nothing anyway. I cant imagine it using more than 2W doing 0% work
check it
a friend of mine was monitoring his 9800x3d igpu and it was consuming like 20W on idle
That might be just AMD idle Power usage
ngl unless dlss 4.5 offers massive perf increase, i think imma get a 1440p oled and not 4k
OK Either i did something wrong or Riva is wrong
No world is a igpu using 120W
Its using the total power of the CPU
I did it! YES @pure ibex Riva works on BF6 now.
Total chud victory
Its using 0.3v idk how much amp
Now this week BF6 more Benchmarking 
and better with better Avg stat. They still need bit better UI on Steam else its fine for one that just want to check quick
Afterburner will never be defeated
The broken corpses of all who have stood against the might riva tuner lay forgotten in the foot notes of history

See you on the Battlefield Riva 
if you smoother it in thermal puddy like that one dude yyou can still aircool.
he hit 9th place on the boards with aircooling on a i think 5090 shunt.
looked like a toddler put playdo all over his pcb thou
2k is imo the perfect compromise between high framerate and good fidelity.
unless you play only certained titles you will never use those 4k displays to the extend they are rated for with max settings
Mmmm yea i might get a 1440p oled
it's just that i find upscalers work so much better on 4k + you need less AA on 4k
i am a bit sad i dont wait 4 more months for a 5070ti super but oh well 4months without a gpu is rough
that is if in 4months it will release at a decent price
i have a bit of a crummy 2k msi 32 inch panel and i personally love it.
looks great and is letting my 5070 stretch its legs without curbstomping it even in stalker 2.
i def only use 70%of the display without fg thou
buts its a budget midrange card
im a bit bumped i bought my 70 recently when they just now annouced the supers.
but i waited 6-7 months drooling while suffering with a 3060ti so i pulledd the trigger
there is always chasing better, it is what it is
i mean a few months ago
buying a gpu wasnt even an option the prices were so bad
so like you feel when the prices were finally good they say oh we're releasing the super in 4months
Reason: Bad word usage
#my bad
i guess not being a saudi kinda blows but it did since 30s release
f word sucks*
#note: i would argue 4k on a 70ti is the same thing as 2k on a 60ti.
it works but honestly not that well.
2k is the way
Well thing is, its only valid on 4K if there is dlss
Cz 4k dlss on performance is better than 1440p on quality
In terms of image quality
let's say in 1 year,
can i do that without the shunt just add thermal padding everywhere and change thermal paste, you think it will change something ?
If you do that why not just upgrade your Vram with 3GB ones
too risky xD
and i genuinely think 16gb is a lot of vram for 1440p, it's more the 350W tdp that i want from the 5070ti super
the reason you shunt is to force more power draw.
more power = more heat = bigger need for heat absorption.
i dont think you gonna get far without that.
if your scared of bricking your card i would say just live in the constraints.
i personally dont think its worth the risk.
i see
sadge 
i wanted the 4070ti super duper extreme
guess I will have to settle for super duper
👆🏼 🤓 RAY TRACING
Super duper it will be
i just wanted my super duber to be ++ 
DLSS 4.5 wont magically make your GPU faster
Nvidia Magic 
Jedi survivor will change your mind
i get 15GB of VRAM usage at 1080p without RT
with dlss ?
he has only 1080P
sounds like a shit game made on ue5.1
its UE 4.26 actually
1080p with dlss quality / ultra quality
no
FSR 4 native at 1080p
you should be able to run anything with any modern gpu
Will be just fine
Only game i have managed to get to use 11GB vram was Cyperpunk with path tracing at 1440p
bruh
cyberprank uses 13GB with RT phsyco at 1080p with FSR 4 Q for me
and you are saying it doesnt use more than 11 with PT at 1440p
sounds like an fsr skill issue
I mean sucks to be you but that is what the software tells me. 12.8GB allocated
did you just try to bait me ? 😠
welp
maybe its something to do with NGREEDIA using less VRAM than AMD ?
Could be
hahaha my ragebait worked
maybe it will
okay imma stop
i should receive the new 5070ti in the next few days
probably saturday
fingers crossed we win the silicone lottery
thats only 100mhz higher than my stock 9060XT
I hoped we’d get like 4ghz but sadly no
But I think the fact it hard caps
Makes me think something is limiting it
On purpose
Silicon is limited intentionally in some way
Make it like fx - 8ghz
Well that card ocs like mad
Can get to like 3.2ghz form 2.6ghz
With unlocked power limit
They don’t even hold the record
14900ks has nearly cracked 10ghz

but mine didnt so 
Did you disable the power limit?
i increased the powerlimit and everything but mine was 2x power connector not 3
It doesnt matter
it reached 450W peak
Unfortunate
You need to modify the card
To reach its full power
GOTTA BREAK OUT DA IRON
And solder 3 wires
yes i modified it, it is now sold
Did you attached an evc2
i sold it for 600 eur
Understandable
What card you got
5070ti for 780 euro Zotac Amp Extreme Infinity
my 7900xtx had coilwhine, high temps, meh silicone and wasnt under waranty anymore, i dont regret it
just wish it sold a bit later that way i would have waited for 5070 ti super
Forgot the “and knuckles” at the end
Thankfully my 9070 xt doesn’t make any noise
so all in all paid 180 eur for the same card (with OC it gets same perf as my 7900xtx hellhound) but Nvidia and 5 years waranty + no coilwhine + no high temps
Oh you had a hell hound
Those are kinda known for being shit
i felt it deeply
Not the Sapphire Nitro+ OC ?
Nah
The liquid devils were binned even higher
They were limited edition
ah it's a liquid cooler (hence the name)
Nah it’s for custom loop cooling
It comes with a pre affixed water block
genuinely think that a 7900xtx made on 3nm will be insane
Rdna5
so the 10900XTX or whatever they decide calling
