remember not to buy amd gpus or intel cpus (until they release good ones later this year)
>>102119794You are wrong.
3080ti or 7900 gre? Also how better at 1440p dlss quality is better in both visuals and performancw than fsr or even native resolution?
>>102119833FRS is the worst of the upscalers but you need to like watch youtubers explain how and when it sucks.just wait for 5080
>>102119833they're basically the same performance, if they're the same cost why not get the new card?
>>102119759>Web browsing: 12100, 5600G
>>102119858Cuz reading pcbg i have notice an argument if its worth getting amd due to nvidia being superior in dlss by achieving even better quality than in native resolution.
>>102119878you mean the one nvidia shill?
I'm a bit stuck in analysis paralysis:>have a 60hz 4K monitor>would like to buy a new PC plus a higher refresh rate monitor>feel like getting a non-oled at this point is a waste of money>sticking to my 60hz would be a waste of computer power>buying everything I want is out of budget>current PC is too old to upgrade individual parts graduallySo the options are do nothing, upgrade PC and stick to old monitor, upgrade PC and buy "alright" high refresh monitor, or stop being poor (lmao lol)
>>102119910Aint lurking that often to tell whos shilling and not.
>>102119919you would benefit the most from buying a 1440p 360hz qd oledgreat for esports, great for single player with hdr, great for media watching with hdr, will be optimal for whatever pc you get later on
>>102119919Stop being retarded, we are tired of reading your whine here everyday.
>>102119858The AMD is like half the cost.
>>102119938wtf, and the 3080ti is used?
>>102119931What the fuck are you talking about? Link to previous posts or be declared a faggot for ever.
>>102119950Yeah, 3080ti with warranty till 2027for 500 euros ir 7900gre new for 530.
>>102119960Cry me a river, spineless cuck.
What tool should I use to unbloat a fresh windows 11 install ? I heard something about unattended files
>>102119968>till 2027I'm optimistic, I think RDNA5 going to happen in 2026
>>102119950New ones are like 900. No clue what would possess you to buy a used GPU.
>>102119739Thanks for motherboard suggestions.what's the most optimal fans I can get for my budget(7 fans for 250-300)?The setup is 3 120mm intake in front, 3 120mm intake on the side, 360mm Aio top exhaust, and a 140mm fan on the back as exhaust. Hoping that can cool a 4090 + 7800x3d Here's my list againhttps://pcpartpicker.com/list/7s4pt7
>>102119981https://youtu.be/WyLiJl-NQU8here you go, do it carefully though, don't mark all the checkmarks, read up on things you do not udnerstand
>>102119968GRE every day.
>>102119919I decided to do nothing, I can buy 4k OLED, but it's going to turn me into shizo worrying about "the issues", and I can't bring myself to pay $1k for a VA panel. Dual layer OLED we wait.
>>102119993You can get any fan with that kind of budgetIf you want SL Infinities, just get all 7 of them. 7800x3d isnt a hot processor so it can get away with low tier cooling so you don't need good fans like the a12x25 at all
>>1021198335090 no contest.
I think the lowest for each upscalers should beDLSS 1080p quality FRS 1440p quality XeSS 1440p Performance I wouldn't go lower than this.
>>102119872elaborate
>>102120053DLSS and only DLSS. It's alien tech when you compare to the other 2 upscalers. I would attach an image but I'm on mobile right now.
>>102120067>mobile shitter is a dlss cultistThis shit writes itself.
KB1587 lowered my CPU temps too, huh.
>>102119833My 79xtx doesn't 3440x1440p native 60-120fps+ so I'd recommend that for future proof
Do I need to change my GPU thermalpad when repasting? Can I just use thermalputty instead of pad?
>>102120244you can putty
>>102120244yes you can use putty but you don't need to change them unless you think they're falling apart basically.
>>1021200592200G/i3-10100 are more than capable of providing a decade more of butter smooth browsing experience.
>The KB5041587 update, now available as an optional update for Windows 11 23H2, should yield the same performance uplift as the optimizations in the 24H2 update, AMD confirmed today.no updates for Intel?
>>102120472watch the HWUnboxed video, there's some uplifts for Intel too but its on a case by case basis and its mostly scheduling being shit with AMD.
>>102120189how much lower?
>AMD was winning with its hands tied behind the backits Intelover
>>102119759Holy shit. No 13th or 14th gen Intel recommendations.GPU recommendations from AMD.OP is not a corporate cocksucking shillbot for once.
>>102120472>this commentary
>>102120541This thread was made while the nvidia shill is sleeping
ok, after some research, there are two types of people1. people who say 32" is too big for 1440p2. people who have had a 1440p 32" screenI have my choices down to three... incomming
I know this is not a laptop thread but I figured you guys could help me out.I'm using this SYY 157 thing that some people recommend for GPUs and laptop CPUs. After 2 months of a repaste job and not noticing much of an improvement, shit kind of getting bad really, I noticed this. I put a bit too much paste, but only half of it got covered properly.How can I make dead sure that when pressure is placed on the heatsink this doesn't happen? I used a spread method to ensure that the corners were also covered because as I understand it's necessary for an uncovered die to be completely covered.
>>102120560I've tried 1440p on 32" 4k monitor and it honestly doesn't look that great
>>1021205013-4C at very light tasks like playing a video, which is a lot
>>102120567Too much paste, it has to be a few atoms-layered.
>>102120560I was #1 until I got a 1440p 32" for my dad. It's just fine
>>102120567Get PTM7950 pads.
>>102120567improvement relative to what?What do you hope to happen?
>>102120596So too much paste is actually bad? I guess I need to investigate more on this>>102120611Anywhere I could grab these in europe?>>102120627I'm hoping to get something lower than 95C and obnoxiously loud on a ryzen laptop when opening photoshop
>>102120652the heat and fan noise can be controlled with softwareyou can disable pbo, do -20 volt curve offset, set max fan speed to 10% lower so its not annoying, set max thermal limit to like 85 or something
How much should I ideally raise the GPU curve by? Is it something you just gotta figure out yourself? I did a +149 and then flattened at my desired point. Strangely enough according to HWiNFO the max core clock isn't 2834 (what I set it at, stock is 2835) but 2820, which is fine, doesn't really matter much, since the -0.1 voltage drop is pretty good. It's been stable like that for days and I got slightly better benchmark scores. Should I raise it more? Is there a risk of long-term damage by unintentionally starving the GPU of its voltage input?
>>102120560Most anons here and ESPECIALLY /v/ don't know how far from their screen they should be sitting. While personally as desk depth is not infinite I feel 1440p is not enough for 32" at the very least anon make sure you CAN sit within the ideal viewing range.>https://stari.co/tv-monitor-viewing-distance-calculator>https://www.benq.eu/en-uk/knowledge-center/knowledge/whats-the-best-viewing-distance-for-a-1440p-gaming-monitor.html

>>102120667Undervolting just causes crashing if it isn't enough juice. Overvolting is where damage can occur.
I want more of an art productivity angle, as I don't really care about gaming. I watched videos and every time its literally just buy amd because of gaymen but no one talks about rendering, and what I mostly want art etc stuff. Since I'm on a budget I wanted the 4060ti with 16gb but specifically this card is heavily dissed every time I looked on information about it, because it underperforms in gaming, but I don't really give a fuck about gaming. Should I still buy into it, or rather go towards the 70's, but those are like +150eur more here in yurop.
>>102120589>I've tried 1440p on 32" 4k monitor and it honestly doesn't look that greatthat's not the same. 1440p doesn't work on a 4k monitor. the resolutions don't match. You can run 1080 on a 4k, the same way you can run 720 on a 1440
>>102120688I see. Does it vary model by model how much of an undervolt it can take before instability arises?
To all the Intel FAGS who kept insisting it wasn’t windows causing performance issues for Zen 5,lol, lmao even
>>102120251>>102120255Thanks fampai.
>>102120652>Anywhere I could grab these in europe?they sell real ones from Ali, just check out the store not to get scammed
>>102120674Gamuts are essentially standards that cover certain percentages of the visible spectrum, while it isn't linear as some are tuned for different uses what matters is srgb is fucking ancient and a pathetic amount of colour next to what the human eye can see which is why these modern panels - especially those that do real HDR - get listed as doing well over 100% of srgb because the wider gamuts (like DCI-P3) cover MOAR COLOUR. Attached pic is a visualisation of this.Brightness is a mixed bag, IN THEORY the standard paper white (as in, what an actual sheet of A4 paper looks like) is 120cd/m which is also an old standard but for many it is fine. I personally like using about 200cd/m for daily brightness.Contrast ratio is straight up moar = betterHDR gets involved but for LCDs really the only one that matters is DisplayHDR 1000. Check to see if RTingsh ave review of those screens as they do some good testing (along with TFTcentral)>https://displayhdr.org/performance-criteria/
>>102120712Zen5 is still only 2% faster than zen4 anon
>>102120674AOC is using a VA panel, it has unfixable motion blur, why would anyone do that?
>>102120763VA looks good in stills and are cheaper to make
>>102120674>>Contrast Ratio 1000:1 (Min.), 700:1 (Typ.)it means it's shit.monitor color depends on calibration more than the panel itself, you can have two monitors with same exact panel tuned wildly differently
>>102119919your monitor will hold you back if you get a new PC.A new monitor will make you wish you had a better PC.the smart thing to do is buy the parts you want and upgrade step-by step. Like new mobo + cpu + RAM, new PSU, new GPU, SSDs, case etc.
>>102120760imbecile.
>>102120709Yes - that is just manufacturing variance. You might be able to undervolt lots or even a tiny decrease might crash, you just need to find out that yourself. For example I have a 7900xtx - out of the box it runs 1150mv. If I use the auto undervolt option in adrenalin it picks 1125mv. However after doing extensive testing if I manually set 1115mv it is stable, but 1110mhz will intermittently crash in some games.
>>102120787XTX needs 1.1v?My XT runs 1050mv 2300mghz sustained at 200w, feels great.
>>102120787Alright, I'll test it more for a week and then undervolt it again to 975mv and see if it can take it. It runs cool enough even on stock but I'd like to cut down on the power consumption of my system.
>>102120755>Brightness is a mixed bag, IN THEORY the standard paper white (as in, what an actual sheet of A4 paper looks like) is 120cd/m which is also an old standard but for many it is fine. I personally like using about 200cd/m for daily brightness.this was very helpful, and i thought to check my old monitor's specsMy last monitor was 250, and it was more than bright enough. It was also a VA panel with P3 90%, and had 8ms g2g...
>>102120820XT has less coars and clocks so naturally it needs less voltage in. Plus at 200w you are power capping and v/f is not linear - I would actually expect you to be hitting more like 1v at that power limit.
>>102120787>>102120822Forgot to mention the GPU is a Gigabyte Gaming OC 4070 Super.
>>102120773i see... my last monitor was also VA i just disovered. So it wasn't awful but still, i won't buy one like that again. They were very cheap though
>>102119833>Felling for the frame gen/upscaling memeRaw performance always triumps
>>102120839I put clock to 2300 limit, didn't touch power.It's comfy enough, with RT it goes to 250ish.
>>102120846What actual gpu it is doesn't matter, it is just finding that spot where it stays stable. I would find the most stressful game you play and play for 30 mins to get it nice and warm (temps matter for stability) and then nudge voltage down 10mv, play for another 30 mins and see if it holds. Keep going until it doesn't and then go back to the last known good voltage. I would not advise using synthetic tests.
>amd>releases patches to improve performance over time>Intel>releases patches to downclock their CPUs and flush their registers to patch security flawsI know which I prefer more
Hello /pcbg/ I come to you at a time of great need.

>>102120784As one other anon looking to move from a 1080p TN panel after nearly 14 years, and on a machine nearly half that age, I suppose that makes sense. 1440p is a lot of extra pixels to fill.

>>102120962Old intel platforms aren't very upgradeableIt's more worth it to move to a new CPU platformYou can easily reuse your 650W PSU and cooler by going with lower power parts like the 7800x3d (50-90W draw) and 4070 super (180-220W draw). The 7800x3d is also the fastest gaming CPU and recently got even faster with the new windows 11 optimization patch
>>1021209621. buy the identical ram. and i mean identical. the exact same ram from the same brand. 2. upgrade GPU. you can get 1080ti's so cheap now3. get a 27-32"1440p monitor, i'd recommend the 32" and make sure it has a high refresh rateI hope you have at least an SSD
>>102121010Just to hit and sustain 60 FPS at 1080p, with settings set to medium(minimum) at current games I hope.
>>1021210821080p is pretty redundant these days with the power gpus have and upscalers
>>102121061Isn't buying an additional ram like that still a coin toss?
>>1021210821070 is already adequate then, outside of edge cases
>>102121126It is a coin toss for common ram speed/timings like 3000c15
>>102121126Depends on the store and manufacturer, usually ram will be marked without the exact model and revision.
>>102121126with DDR4 it can be if the newer ram is different inside. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTS0ybQ3lCIso perhaps just get some more ram and replace your old sticks? DDR4 RAM is cheap now
>>102121061apart from getting an SSD this isn't the best advice, a 1080ti is an old card now and have been through two rounds of crypto mining, for context a 6600XT has basically identical performance. 16gb is mostly usable and I wouldn't want to try to match the kit, might as well just go AM5 and go to a 32gb kit.>>102121082what is your budget?>>102121133yeah 1070 should be fine and they could upgrade it when it eventually dies or the performance feels lacking
>>102121082set resolution to 720p or lowerif you can hold 60 like that all you have to do is buy a new graphics cardif it still dips you also have to replace your cpu
>>102120560I have a 1440p 32 inch screen and its fantastic. The big problem with small screens is that the UI for everything becomes smaller with it. Thats fine if theres scaling but most programs dont give you the options to make the UI bigger. I dont want to have to lean into my screen 24/7 to be able to see things. 4K in 27 inch must be an eternal game of finding waldo

>>102121360It's really not a bad card but the two slow+ two fan design can only take you so far when it comes to cooling. I'll be on the lookout for 4080 cards at a reduced price when the 50XX series comes.
>>102121307Is the 4080 much quieter than than the 3080? The TDP going from 320 watt to 280 watts would somewhat help but you are complaining about noise issues that start at 250 watts

>>102121126Yes. When I built my current system I bought 2x8gb G Skill. About a year later I decided to buy another 2x8gb. Same manufacturer, same exact model, same SKU. One pair has Hynix chips, the other pair is Samsung.
>>102121397>Is the 4080 much quieter than than the 3080?depends on the model and the coil whine but 4080's have much better efficiency and undervolting potential.

>>102121486>>stopgap resolutioni forgot they called it thatwhat is it, a 70% increase in resolution? and 4k is more than double 1440p?4k is such a massive leap over even 4k, only top 4000 cards can really do it, maybe 5000 cards will be able to do it more comfortably, but i don't see it be coming standard until at least the 6000 seriesThere really should have been a 3k resolution standard at some point, the jump between 1 to 2 to 4 and now people are discussing 8k is absurd.
>>102121515why?you can get 170hz 1440p 27" screens for under $300 right now.
I am about to buy thishttps://www.pccasegear.com/products/65012/viewsonic-vx3219-2k-pro-2-qhd-165hz-32in-gaming-monitorplease stop me if something is wrong with it
>>102121681Well you're buying a monitor with ppi of 92, 250 nits peak brightness and contrast ratio of 1200:1
>>102121665>and now people are discussing 8k is absurd.we need whales to carry us into tomorrow, will be nice when 4k becomes new 1440p thoughgddr7 should help a lot
>>102121712he wants a 32" but doesn't want to pay 4k tax
I'm afraid for the future of out apu's with 8k monitors becoming more mainstream or 4k for that matter.
>>102121754given gpus already gave up on 4k and we're at most upscaling from 1440p to 4k with dlss I don't see 8k ever becoming a thing
>>102121754nah, far from it, 4k is hard to drive nobody wants itforever generation away
>>102121665Well, 8k is probably the most important resolution so far due to every other resolution throughout history scaling up to it perfectly, even useless meme resolutions like 720p or 1440p. So once it becomes common, it's there to stay.
>>102121783ha, never occurred to me that 8k scales with everything, too bad we are 20 years away from it.
Give me 24" 2k or 4k idc. I dont want bigger monitor.
>>102121712>>102121746i have had 1440p 32" before. It is a nice experience. the peak brightness is the same as my last monitors and they are good enough, but what's with the contrast ratio?my old cheap screen had a contrast of 3000-1 according to the online listing, but everything i look at now is 1000 or 1200. what's going on?
>>102121783>useless meme resolutions like 720p720p was world changing. it brought higher than SD resolution to the masses
>>102121882you had a VA, it's an IPSbetter angles, no ghostly apparitions with motion
>>102121783>useless meme resolutions like 720p or 1440p>1440p >meme resautism
If 4k is to be mainstream, hdds need to become cheaper and bigger.
>>102117951Intel needed a new whole OS (W11) for their estrogen core arch to work properly so STFU Intelshill
>>102121906ive checked the AOC VA panel i was looking at, and yeah you are right, it's also 3000-1So it's either a VA panel with better contrast, or an IPS with washed out colors?
>>102121926theres some mentally ill autists who adopt some insane proposition that 1440o looks awful for some magical reason and aren't bothered by the fact that no one else believes in the same thing and no proof existst to support their magical thinking
>>102121938>HDDswhat year is it?

>>102121938they are bigger and cheaper, 16Tb costs like $140
>>102121665native 4k is unachievable because the industry does not optimize for it. The best you can do at 4k is upscale from 1440p or 1080p and even then it looks like dogshit in motion, especially when you're got 30fps or 60fps to work with.
>>102121968>theres some 27" 1440p 360hz monitors around 700-800€ these daysthere really aren't since they all cost 1000€ or more.

>>102121994they have to factor in some people misusing the monitors and getting burn in and replacing them before the warranty period is out

Any leaks about when the rtx50 series should release?
>>102122159do you even understand what I'm saying?can you see big difference between 144 and 72 fps line or not? what monitor do you have 60hz?
>>102122176>can you see big difference between 144 and 72 fps line or notof course I can. It's half the refreshrate and the lower hz has lower motion clarity, as expected with LCDs

>>102120567Way too much paste.The part where you can almost see through it is how it should look before you put the cooler on. Put small blob on it and spread it around with bit of stiff plastic (something like a bag clip or piece of a cup lid works fine).Best thermal conductivity is metal to metal, the paste is only there to fill up the microscopic parts where either metal bit isn't perfectly flat.Some call it "buttered toast" stylehttps://koolingmonster.com/insights/what-is-the-best-thermal-paste-pattern-actual-performance-comparison
>>102122288and you are saying you can't see awful blur from VRR when it goes down to 60hz? really? the fuck? 144hz/72fps is much clearer than VRR 60fps or even 80fps.
>>102122312>I wish somebody did proper chase camera photosliterally every single RTINGS monitor review has these tests and OLEDs are far superior when it comes to motion clarity.

Lancool III or Antec Performance 1 FT? I'm leaning towards the Antec for the extra straps on the back and side, and the easier to remove front panel.
>>102122582I don't know what they do to the photos to make the highlights so red, I am looking at my 24g2 monitor and because it's a bit cloudy it looks more grey than red (but the red highlight is angled on the 24g2, it looks 100% black in some pictures, I think your monitor is flat with the monitor so it might be more noticeable).

My PC table has 3 monitors and I got an LG OLED TV to the left, I sometimes hook it up with a cable, just rotate the chair and grab a controller to play on it.What's the easiest way to play with mouse and keyboard on the TV tho if I wanted to do that? Right now I can't because they would be sideways.Sorry for photo quality I have a 2016 phone...
>>102122899The fact that his Photoshop job was so fucking lazy. How hard is it to just take your shoe off, set out next to the item, and snap a photo? Pretty damn hard if you don't actually own the thing.

>>102122270I have a friend that has that really aggressive one 1500 or what ever, he says you literally don't notice it until someone mentions it. idk i think that nigga zooted
>>102123193you need to either buy a differnet desk/sitting furniture and change how things are locatedorget rid of one of the monitors because why the fuck do you need so many, use 2 monitor arms that allow easily moving the monitors, setup the desk so it faces the tv, then when you want access to the tv move the 2 monitor arms so the monitors dont block the tv and use the tv
>>102123271Curved monitors are fucking disgustingI can understand an enormous one for a DCS super sim but casually it looks like ass, I want a flat portal not some crap warping the image I want to see

>>102123323eh these days I mostly just enable xmp for ram, downlock cpu in bios and use msi afterburner for gpu so it eats a bit less watts
>>102123263better question, 1440p 27" OLED under $500 when?
>>102123361Possibly during Black Friday at the earliest.Many models are sitting at $600-650 now, and one is at $550:https://pcpartpicker.com/product/8KzXsY/innocn-27a1s-270-2560-x-1440-250-hz-monitor-27a1sOtherwise I would expect next Summer to hit sub-$500.
OLEDs are garbage
>>102123438its a shame they need to add like extra 200€ to the prices to balance out people who will return the monitors for burn in warranty
>>102123438Ideally I want $300-350 so I wouldn't feel bad to throw it away in a year or two.
>>102123447This it's just a panel, some are better than others
>>102123447like you wouldn't get one if you could afford to buy a new one every year
>>102123361You have multiple options for a full 4k 160hz 27" monitors that are IPS, stop being a FREAK thinking OLED is so good it's worth paying $200+ extra for less resolution, less refresh rate.
>>102123450production process is really complicated and yields aren't 100%they have to print LEDs at sub sub pixel size without errors
>>102123488enjoy your glow, fuck I miss my 23" 100hz Samsung CRT
>>102123471that guy never used an oled monitor so he wouldnt because he doesnt know
>>102123261I did, he failed miserably. I asked for the same shoe turned on its side so the sole is visible along with a piece of mail addressed to the same name on his payment account, this is what I got.

Question: To get the AMD CPU performance update on Windows does it apply to Windows 11 LTSC out of the box? Or do I need a very specific KB update and if so which one?
>>102124009I learnt today that there are games other than cyberpunk and it blew my fucking mind.
>>102124009i mean you can just gaym in 1080p and do everything else in 4k or whateverlots of us already do this when on battery and also drop the refresh rate to 30hz for this reason.high res is great for coding, documents, drawing, animatng, and such.
>>102120695AMD is better for productivity too. Get a 7700X and a 4070s or 7900 GRE.
>>102124029You need KB5041587
>>1021240094K has always been a joke. It's an open secret that even a 4090 can't do 4K on top of the heat output, power draw, noise, etc. 1080p with high FPS 120+ is what you want OR 1440p 60 FPS if you wanna be fancy.
>>102124049if I'm on 24H2 IoT LTSC does it apply already just by installing the iso or do I need a KB update?
>>102124035>i mean you can just gaym in 1080p and do everything else in 4k or whatevernot when 4k monitors are 27-30" on average. the DPI makes it look like shit compared to a standard 1080p monitor

I want a USB with multiple different OS to install on it. Is there any issue with loading W10, W11, Tiny10, and ubuntu onto a single USB? It will solely be a USB for installing the OS, not planning on dual booting anything. Will having that many on a single drive cause problems or will it be fine?

Probably a dumb question but why doesn't Intel put more cache on the kf chips? I assume there's more space on the die without the igpu, or is it a problem of where the cache is located? Or does intelaviv just not care that much?
