How unlikely is it that both sticks of my RAM went bad at the same time? Started seeing errors on various tests with UEFI defaults. Even getting errors on both sticks individually with memtest86+. Unfortunately I don't have any spare DDR4 laying around to rule out CPU...
>>102267908I'm a poorfag >>102267979https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JosuRSY5eRc&t=92sIt's 6 screws and some basic circuit cleaning, how hard could that even be?
>>102268050Tell the class: are you an Intel or a Radeon fanboy?>>102268057Could be mobo as well>>102268062Not worth it in my opinion
>>102268057what cpuwhat voltage did you run the dimms at
>>1022681145900x. 1.35v, it's CJR that I ran at its advertised speed of 3600 with tightened timings that I tested thoroughly when I finalized them.5900x has been running on 0.9 VDDP, 0.950 CCD, 1.0 IOD, and 1.1 SOC since I got it. No PBO either.
>>102268174sounds good, cjr should not degrade at 1.35Vboth sticks going bad at the same time is sussy.try the cpu at 4 GHz 1.2V or something to rule out cpu degradation
should i buy the 7900xt. i dont want to wait the 4 months, i just want to run these upcoming games well

Played the new Warhammer 40K game today and hit 1.495v and 100C on my 14700K. Really loving my purchase.
>>102268288Now that's GAMING. What's that, over 300W to play a game?
>>102268308250W hehe. Would be higher if it wasn't sitting at 95-100c constantly. Weirdly hits harder than Cinebench? Weird game.
>>102268329Cinebench loads down all the cores leading to hitting the current limit earlier
>>102268215im not buying a 3000 dollar 4090 tard
>>102268406You don't need a 4090 but I would either wait for next gen AMD or buy a 4070TiSuper or higher from Nvidia if buying now. Buying AMD for anything other than low-end is stupid currently.
why aren't there any 5k or 6k monitors for PCs? it's like everything stopped progressing with 4k in 2014. also, does anyone know what settings I should use to calibrate my monitor ? I calibrated it to the "sRGB" settings but it looks sort of weird and yellowish. gamma 2.2 is too dark so i'm guessing I would want gamma 2.0 for playing competitive games and using the monitor on the web ?
>>102268420is the 7900xt not a 4070ti super?
>>102268435No it's not, it's a 7900XT? Do I really need to explain the difference? Typical bar-graph watcher.
>>102268198>7900xt.4080 / 4080 super is the best value right now but ofc it's going to be btfo by blackwell in Q1 2025.
>>102268057I would test the sticks on a different computer if possible to rule out your mobo / cpu being the source of the problem. They should be easy to rma though with the error code screenshot
>>102268460>costs 2/3 more than the 4070 super but only about 1/3 fasterThis is value to you?
>>102268057>>102268174Failing PSU? CJR is fairly sensitive to voltage, the sticks could have been killed by a voltage spike.
Sup/pcbg/, recently my pc has been getting disconnected from my wifi several times. Ive noticed that it ping spikes when im downloading something large or sometimes randomly when im playing a game and it causes my pc to disconnect from my wifi. This doesnt happen with any other of my devices btw. Any tips on what it could be?
>>102268561do you have i225v chip
>>102268525yes because I want playable frames with the ray tracing settings turned up and it is the only card that can do that outside of the 4090. 40 something fps is unplayable compared to being in the 60s. ofc I will tweak some settings to get higher fps but I want the RT cranked up to the max in the games that have them. I also have a 360hz 1440p monitor for it to drive.
>>102268561See whether it still happens after xmp is disabled
>>102268017Shit OP again
>>102268580You get worse visuals not using DLSS with RT due to the lack of Ray-Reconstruction. So regardless these results are useless. The Native Res train left long ago.
>>102268576I do not.>>102268582I've had it disabled before and it was still happening. Im thinking my wifi card might be faulty, I think.
Are the AM5 epycs the same shit as ye olde xeons? Same shit with differrent sticker?
>>102268017>budget: RX 6600; ultra budget: used RTX 2060 Super>1440p: RTX 4070 Super; budget: RX 7700 XTGood luck with that.Why are you recommending cards released in 2019?
>>102268619Yes, when you rent a VPS or dedicated server xeon and epyc CPU's compete with each other.
>>102268427>why aren't there any 5k or 6k monitors for PCs?It's sadly too niche. Not to mention 1440p is only fairly recently become acceptable after YEARS of horseshit "facts" being spoken about it being "blurry" or "poorly supported." When all that was happening was idiots who thought 1440p entitled them to HiDPI and would do fractional scaling or they would mostly work with 1080 stuff with a blur filter. Add to that the bandwidth requirements for 2880p and most monitor manufacturers just didn't want to deal with your average PC user. And 6K is even more niche. It's why Apple can still cling on to the professional market because it's a niche of people with lots of money and the relatively small number of fixed hardware machines means compatibility can be baked in and you don't have to deal with Capt. Dell Shitbox with his crappy HDMI 2.0 chipset failing to handshake with your 6K reference monitor and causing support headaches.>I calibrated it to the "sRGB" settingssRGB is basically the lowest of the low and only there for people who need to color correct for other users of the lowest end monitors. These days you want DCI P3.For gamma, 2.2 is correct for sRGB and PC in general. 2.0 would be "incorrect" but if it helps you see what you're doing better and you aren't doing color accurate work, then do what makes you happy. Mac gamma was always traditionally 1.8 which would appear blown out to fuck on PC monitors with PC content, but mac software obviously was built to that standard and looks correct where it would be too dark if you used PC settings.

>>102268619Do you mean to say that an Epyc is just a Ryzen with a different logo like "Xeon" is just an i7 with a different badge?More or less. Basically a Ryzen isn't certified for 24/7 usage with large memory configurations and full PCIe lane utilisation. If you put 192GB of RAM and some 100gbe NICs and a bunch of NVMe storage on a Ryzen it'll probably work, and it'll probably be fine in a server environment, but then again it might give you some headaches. The Epyc branded version is like the Xeon branded version basically a "Nintendo Seal of Quality" in that AMD/Intel has gone the extra mile to test server configs on server grade OSs and you'll have some comeback if you have problems where you'd have little to none if you complain that your ECC isn't EC'ing on a Ryzen.
>>102268194Tried bumping SOC but still got errors on each stick.I noticed the first failing address on each is always the same. The address is different for each of course.Also tried one of the slots in the pair I've never populated and hit the same address.Oh, prime95 instantly fails on a thread with large fft, but didn't get any errors after 8 hours of small.>>102268493This is the only DDR4 computer I have access to, so I'll just grab a new kit and RMA this one I guess.>>102268532It's a 2 year old EVGA 850 G6. No multimeter but the values reported by the motherboard are well within ATX spec, including under load. But I do have a window AC that makes the lights dim every time it kicks on...
>>102268769>Do you mean to say that an Epyc is just a Ryzen with a different logo like "Xeon" is just an i7 with a different badge?He means to say Epyc and Xeon are server/workstation offerings.

I think the other anon meant running the cores at low frequency and 1.2 V.>Oh, prime95 instantly fails on a thread with large fft, but didn't get any errors after 8 hours of smallAre you running 1T GDM disabled or something? That is notoriously finicky and the best way I've found to test the stability of that is P95 Large. I can pass an hour of TM5 but fail almost instantly in P95. >It's a 2 year old EVGA 850 G6. No multimeter but the values reported by the motherboard are well within ATX spec, including under load.I don't think that would be the reason then, the PSU should "smooth out" external power fluctuations, but I've had a PSU in the past that killed two GPUs due to voltage spikes. B-die, DJR and Rev E can take high voltages, CJR can't.
>>102268696>sRGB is basically the lowest of the low and only there for people who need to color correct for other users of the lowest end monitors.

My main interest is having accurate colors without black crush on the shadows. When I calibrated to gamma 2.2 it was too dark and like this guy on reddit : https://www.reddit.com/r/OLED_Gaming/comments/1c4t7sq/22_gamma_vs_srgb_gamma_pg32ucdm/I set my monitor to "srgb" instead of "wide gamut" since the colors seemed over saturated on wide gamut but i really don't understand what is going on.The main games I play are pc titles and I don't think they were made with wide gamut support since the colors looks so cartoonish. it is all confusing to me since I am not a videographer or phtographer or colorist. pic attached is the srgb calibration info from displaycal

>>102268763>Dell U3224KBAwow, a single monitor that costs $2.5k That res is essentially dead even though the jump from 4k to 8k is massive in terms of processing requirments.

>>102268654>10gb at low settings This is absolutely a true result and can be added to the mix but, can we take a moment to acknowledge that this is retarded? The reality is most people have a 3060 and making the game unplayable on 80% of peoples computers just doesn't seem smart? Feel free to disagree.
>>102268982>Feel free to disagree.I disagree because if we had it your way the graphics would stagnate since devs would be catering to the weak GPUs over and over again instead of pushing the bar higher gradually.

Repost from previous thread:>My current home PC (13700, 4070, 64GB RAM) sometimes struggles with Fusion 360 if I have big assemblies or very complicated parts with lots of features. While it's struggling to compute everything I'm not seeing I high load on any of the relevant components: max 15% on the CPU and GPU, max 2GB of RAM. Is the optimisation just shite, or is the some way I can unleash the whole system to get shit done quicker?>As for my work laptop, it's much worse at doing the same thing. I have asked the IT guy to get me a replacement that isn't slow as balls and he recommends a laptop with an RTX A2000, 13700H and 32 GB RAM. This is all within budget - but will that A2000 fix the problems I'm currently having with the 4070? On paper it should be a slower card for gaming, so it better have some great optimisation for CAD...>>102264101So in that case, there might be a bit of optimisation in the GPU (A2000 vs 4070, for example), but not much? Probably could overkill it with a 4090.>>102264116>fusion360 is single thread performance limitedThose motherfuckers. I understand why, but god dammit that sucks big fat hairy donkey balls.Last night I did some further testing, when I turbospaz complex models it does indeed load my GPU a bit more (up to 60-70%) as does the CPU (up to 40%), but the hangup is with computing the model itself, not rendering it - and that is stuck to single core performance? Jesus christ. Is there any way to go quicker?
>>102269783>Thoughts on the crucial bx500 ssds?Cheap and cheerful but fine for a secondary drive. Particularly if you're out of M.2 slots.>What the heck happened?HDDs have a higher floor price on account of their more complex workings (moving parts etc.). >Looks like it's a good idea to just used SSDs?For ≤2TB capacities definitely. Well worth the extra ~$20 for no noise and fast access times. At 4TB+, HDDs become more viable depending on your budget. These days, however, 2TB is pretty scant for a movie drive if you're not a Yify enthusiast.
Z790-A MAX WIFI Pro doesn't seem to align with the standoff screws (by a few mm) with the pre-installed IO shield. They gave me a standardized manual for one without an IO shield. And there's no real videos for it. Is there some technique to getting it in alignment? I've never done this before.

>>102269970Could be the psu fan or gpu fan or even a noisy HDD.>Is this what they called a coil whine?Possibly but unlikely as coil whine is - as the name suggests - normally heard as a whine rather than hum.
>>102269970coil whine is often more high pitchedIf your PSU has a zero RPM mode, enable that and check if it makes any differenceIf not you could still turn it on without plugging it to anything with a clip and seeing if that's the culprit

Economies of scale settling on 4K for TVs creating manufacturing inertia for monitor market2. Lack of real increase in bandwidth from stagnating display standards (full UHBR20 DP 2.1 is STILL not out). We can barely increase refresh rates as is using extreme DSC, forget trying to do the same thing at an even larger resolution with a 4:4:4 RGB signal:https://tftcentral.co.uk/articles/when-is-displayport-2-1-going-to-be-used-on-monitors>also, does anyone know what settings I should use to calibrate my monitor ?>I calibrated it to the "sRGB" settings but it looks sort of weird and yellowish.>gamma 2.2 is too dark so i'm guessing I would want gamma 2.0 for playing competitive games and using the monitor on the web ?You are probably used to a cooler whitepoint temperature that a lot of displays come with by default since it artificially inflates the brightness of the native backlight and is supposedly better for eyesight in office enivornments.

>>102270933another big thing is diminishing returns4k is already good enough to not be able to see pixels at typical monitor sizeswhich is not to say that more wouldn't be better, it definitely would, especially by allowing scaling by integral factors. a 5k 27in monitor can be scaled at 200% to yield 1440p appearance, whereas a 4k panel would need to use 150%. this would improve picture quality beyond the basic ppi gain, by eliminating any artifacts from fractional scaling. but still, while the gains are real, we are very much into diminishing returns here. 4k is already very sharp even at 32inplus there's a couple more issues, like the fact that media content is also stuck at 4k, or more importantly the whole situation with gpu prices and game requirements getting completely out of hand. who the fuck wants to buy a 5k-6k-8k display, when the gpu requirements to game on them will be beyond absurd and when you don't even need them for media.really, such panels are only for techbros who are willing to drop $$$ just to make the text on their IDE look nicer.

>>102271379does he have any tests where its compared to these graphene pads?
>>102271536because everyone kept buying non x versions. personally I prefer X variant, less OC headache.
>>102269014graphics have already stagnated retardeveryone is trying to make their shit hyper realistic and it ends up looking the same as AAA slop from 5 years ago while requiring 3 times more resources to run
>>102271566there are graphene tests for CPUs, it's meh compared to paste
>>102271571id be interested to see the best looking game from 2019 vs 2024
>>102271557the bulk paste they use is dirt cheap. if they can save pennies thats huge in mass production. also its planned obsolescence on purpose to get people to buy a new gpu or buy warranty service.
>>102271585RDR2, Control
>>102271594nvidia used it for FE cards from what I heard
Intel won
>>102271566
>>102271608yeah cuz the 4090 pretty much needs it. a 4080 on paste is already hitting 100+ c after just 6 months.
Which motherboard should I get for casual 1080p gaming for R5 5600x + Rtx 4060?
>>102271585make sure to compare the computing requirements relative to graphical improvement because only the latter is seeing diminishing returnsinstead of making everything look like the same hyper realistic realer than real life trash they should at least try to make something different
>>102271626B550 of your choice
>>102271617huh, kryosheet looks fine though, I've seen tests where it was at the bottom
>>102271631this is on a cpu where it has a ihs. if you were to test under a gpu or direct die then results may be different. but both arent bad to use.
what junction temperature should I shoot for if I want to maximize gpu life?the default fan curve is leaving a lot of head room before I can start hearing it.
>>102271627>same hyper realistic realer than real lifethat's what I like though, fuck you weeb tastes, I want my hyper realistic spess games and fantasy RPGs, I want to believe in the world I got into and realsitic graphics help to suspend disbelief more
>>102271476If it's for 1tb then yeah I'd spring for mx500
>>102271617theres less than 2 degrees between 1 and 20theyre much of a muchness at that point
>>102271639undervolt it, what GPU? mine goes 100C' and default, with undervolt it hovers around 70C
>>102271639according to the gpu makers, anything below tjmax is "optimal operating conditions" and "not for concern for damage or warranty replacement".>>102271648the real difference is long term use. ptm7950 gets better with age. the rest deteriorate with age.
>>102271598better comparison would be rdr2 ultra settings vs alan wake 2 pathtraced if we're going for best looking of each year
>>102271648that's why MX-4/MX-6 is recommended because its cheap and abundant.
>>102271656dont those graphene pads last long as well?
>>102271661I got 40x80mm sheet of PTM for $8 here, It's going to peoples through wider channels with each year
>>102271660>alan wake 2Movie with signs of gameplay. Doesn't count.
>>102271693>and control countsit's two exactly the same games.
>>102271653rx 6800. but under volt seems unnecessary when it maxes the fan out at 25% to keep the card under 90C. and I can't hear the thing until it hits 40%>>102271656I don't mind not playing at max settings and don't buy every generation of card so I would prefer to keep them in top condition past the warranty period.
>>102271665they last much longer than paste and technically reusuable but if you need to reassemble for any reason (fucked up mounting on install, changing memory pads, cleaning, repair, etc) then the pad rips apart easily. ptm7950 goes back to solid at room temp and easy to remove when its not liquid.
>>102271660I really can't notice any difference in alan wake 2 pathtraced vs raster
>>102271708for rx 6800 the tjmax is literally 110c. anything below that the card will boost beyond its stock speed like ryzen.
>>102271702but only one of them fits my narrative
>>102271712same, they did a good job with lighting2077 is the only example where PT shines, and only in some scenes, I played it last year and kept switching between normal RT GI and PT, some scenes look awful others perfect, normal RT is more consistent imo
>>102271709i reseated my phantom spirit at least 6 times in the last week trying to figure out what was wrong with the pc (turns out it was a faulty 7800x3d) and my kryosheet still finemaybe i was lucky or others are heavy handed
>>102271702By that logic portal or HL2 aren't games either.
>>102271746how did you figure out it was the cpu? what were the symptoms
>>102271746It really depends on the batch, components, age of the pad.For example MBA AMD cards used graphene pads and they pretty much rip apart once the cooler is removed.
>>102271759i took the cpu back to the shop and they swapped it. pc is now being stress tested but it wouldnt even boot yesterday
>>102271709Can you use pm7950 on cpu's?
>>102271610>benchmarksnor remove the estrogen cores from the equation and show the real world data in cpu heavy games since that's the only thing X800x3d excels at
>>102271850yes but they're meant for direct die more than ihs.
>>102271863i hope amd doesnt go down the same route and put those 'c' cores in future zen desktop processors
>>102271892they don't have to, intel can't into proper chiplets yet that's why they have to use e-cores to save on yields while keeping multicore performance competitiveAMD "infinity fabric" was a revolutionary protocol others have to catch up
>>102271455your cpu works harder with the faster graphics card and stresses the vrm to the point of throttlinghow shit is your motherboard?
>>102271892C cores aren't like Intel's cuck cores, they're the same architecture as the main core made in the smallest footprint possible with a sacrifice made to cache and due to its density, clock speeds.Zen6 is going to be on N2 and will probably be 12 core CCDs like Zen4C but full cache, but also the packaging on Zen6 is changing so that's going to be interesting as well. but we're getting ahead of ourselves, Zen5X3D has a bunch of changes and I think it will be a significant uplift over the 7800X3D.
>>102271990It's a MSI MPG B550 gaming plus and the CPU is a 5900xThat game's not even that demanding, what the fuck are you smoking
have 5700x3d, at 1440p, what would /g/ choose,both cards evga FTW, used;3080, used for ~3 years, for 380euros or3080ti with warranty till 2027 for 520 euros?How important warranty for gpu is, or fail rate is low enough not to care about it spending extra 25%?
>>102272135How much is peace of mind worth to you? Does you know how the 3080 was used? Mined 24/7 or peak gaming loads? Was it kept in a well ventilated dust free case?
>>102272115turn off 6 cores and see if you still get the stuttering. alternatively see if your xmp profile is enabled
>>102269857Lost Judgement loves AMD because it was optimized for consoles first. Nip devs don't care for Nvidia unless Nvidia pays them via Gameworks (Sega PSO2)
>>102272135I would get neither and get a 7800XT for 495 euros
>>102272162Quite a lot, thats why im asking. If it was RAM or CPU I wouldnt bother thinking about warranty. Seems nicely cleaned so no idea about dust-free environment. Its non lhr version, so there is chance it was mined with. In benchmark reaches 75 core temp.Guy says it was used only for gaming, but who knows.
I've been stuck for hours thanks to a seemingly completely normal 3-pin fan connector refusing to go in the SYS_FAN header. Why can't even the simplest things just work?
>>102272239Why? Its around 3080 performance in native resolution and doest have dlss. 45 euros extra gives GRE, which goes around 3080ti.
>>102272195No change, XMP is enabled
>>102272276>Quite a lot, thats why im askingI think you know the answer then
>>102272195What makes a change is turning off PCIe resizeable bar on the BIOSIt lowers FPS just like setting low latency to ultra but it get rids of the stutters I guess
should I buy lexarnm790 with integrated heatsink (same price as without heatsink) or use the heatsink on my motherboard?
is +300€ to go from a 7900xt to an xtx worth it?
>>102272276miners usually sell multiple cards at once
>>102272479buy the one with heatsink so you don't have to mess around with thermal pads. store the motherboards heatsink in the box so you don't lose it
>>102272319If it jams, force it. If it breaks, it needed replacing anyway.

since op is apparently unreliable, is the 90 model necessary for 4k? or will a 4080 or new gen equivalent be just fine?
>>102272735yeah i made the same mistake with my first one toothe second build i just took off an entire day, did everything step by step, eating dinner, walking my dog in between and just said fuck it, gonna finish it tomorrow0 mistakes on that one, absolutely smooth sailing
>>102272790if 4k gaming is huge priority for you, id wait a bit for 5th gen to drop4080 can be a bit hit or miss in 4k gaming
>>102272790>is the 90 model necessary for 4k?yes and no, you can do 4k with 4080 or 7900xt, hell even with 7800xt/4070ti/7900GRE but it's not a very comfortable 4k, running it close to that 60fps lower limitwe practically know nothing about next gen, it could be another dud or revolution we are waiting for a few gens now

>D15Ishygddt
Bros can someone tell me the difference between "Full", "Minimal" and "Driver Only" installation types for AMD GPU drivers?
>>102272959driver only means you only get the driver, not the software suite with useful featuresI usually click full install, it doesn't have faggy bloatware like geforce experience
>>102272959driver only you get only the driver, no tools, no settingsminimal they cut recording and screenshot functionality fromw what I remember, I think OC and monitoring functions are infull you get recording and screenshotsI never installed anythign but full, in driver screenshot tool is too comfy to use
>>102272979I get the driver only option but what does minimal leave out compared to full?
>>102272955I got it, soon to be, 8 years back, I think it's worth it for $100 to use a thing 8 years and it will last me another 8
>>102272996You don't get undervolting with minimal.keeps it nice and quiet and you get more performance
a bit out of distribution for this thread, but any good USB wifi adapters? my tp-link is starting to fail me. I need 5G but nothing else really, I'm near the modem.

1440p doesn't seem worth it to me. Having to spend $600+ on a gpu sucks, even if budget 1440p monitors are hardly more expensive than 1080p these days.
>>102272898>but can it leak out under the cooler in liquid state if its vertically mounted?This was my burning question as well
>>102272955i'd buy the tard tower in a heartbeat if my 19-year-old scythe ninja ever stops working
>>102273218Lower settings: Ultra is basically Medium/High and don't play AAA slop.
>>102269014Shoving a higher texture resolution has zero impact on visuals past a certain point so not really sure how graphics would "stagnate" RDR2 is still one of the best looking rasterized games and doesn't use more than 6.5GB at 4K.
>>102273232from the open tests I've seen in it's liquid form it is the same consistency as a thermal paste, so it shouldn't?
>>102273438>>102273232its resistant to pump out over rapid heating and cooling cycles, that's the whole point of the thing. it can still squish out if you exert too much mounting pressure and even then who cares its non conductive and easy to clean.
Damn, what happened to userbenchmark?Last time I was shopping for parts ~5 years ago it seemed like a somewhat legit site, now their AMD reviews read like they were written by a deranged stroke victim whose wife eloped with an AMD employee and who lost all his life savings on Intel calls.

Is there a big downside to buying a one fan card over a dual fan? Is it going to be super loud or overheat way more?

Anons, I currently have a 5600g and plan on getting a GPU first then buy a better CPU after a month or two Which GPU would you recommend on $300 range and a CPU to pair it with later on
>>102274023nta but would the zotac single fan 4060 be bad? I saw a video it performs well, not sure about the heat
>>102273992I think they usually run silent-type vbios on cards like these to keep the temps down a bit, so they're a tad slower than dual fan cards
>>1022740754060 is an extremely low power part so yeah I reckon a single fan card is fine but if you can find a dual fan card just get that for a similar price unless your case is highly space constrained
Day 520 of waiting for next-gen GPUs.
>watching gpu unboxings from 3 years ago>people paying $700-$800 for a 3060 jeez surely nobody selling any of this now can be making any profit on them
>>102274096This is my current setup with a single fan 1660s If I get a dual fan 4060 im not sure if theres any cool air that would reach the tower cooler.Im also considering the Gigabyte 4060 lowprofile , 3 fans but a whole lot slimmer along air to reach the cooler

>>102268017Omeletanon from a couple of threads ago, hereBuilding a new computer for gaming and plugging in my TV to watch YT in the living room.I'd like not to change too many parts over the next ten years.Budget is under 3K€, France.Here's the updated list:https://fr.pcpartpicker.com/list/vtVbWtI'd love some opinions, especially regarding the RAM (should I go for 2x32, for future-proofing?) the case (how do I make it as noiseless as possible?) and the motherboard (will I have compatibility issues/how do I compare with other mobos out there?)
>>102274282dual fan would still be ok in this config since again the 4060 is so low power the air reaching the cpu cooler should not be that hot buy a single fan gpu will still be fine

>>102275984There’s a lot of incentive for them to exist. We’ll see, but I’m fairly certain Nvidia wouldn’t want them around.
Help me understand /pcbg/I keep seeing everywhere people claiming that if you're going to use thermal paste on a GPU die/laptop you must spread a thin layer. It is imperative that you do it this way because apparently too much TIM is bad but so is not covering the entire die. Like you're supposed to spread it thinly, evenly, perfectly. Isn't the GPU cooler supposed to push out the excess anyways? Am I missing something?I was thinking about how with an older GPU I usually had less problems when I just used the X method instead of spreading it. It was a bit of a mess afterwards because some of these pastes are a bit extra viscous, but it did the job. What's this all about?
>>102276195GPU is a naked die. You need to cover everything.
>>102273676Decently just have in your terms that you won't offer tech support. Only basic troubleshooting 30 days from purchase.
>>102275326>90% of 4090 owners don't actually know anythingI'm not sure if it's actually that high, but generally I would agree. The 4090 for gaming is fine if you know exactly why you want it (path tracing), or just want da best, as you're ((((((only)))))) paying paying a $300 price premium for the performance, and against the total cost of the build, probably not a big difference. Still, I'm against consumerism.>>102272790>is the 90 model necessary for 4k? or will a 4080 or new gen equivalent be just fine?If you can wait, I would wait for the 5080, launching in early Jan. It'll be cheaper than the 4090 while having similar performance. Also it might have better RT performance or some new feature (DLSS 4?). It's important to understand that no current graphics card can run 4K native reliably, even without RT. From this perspective you'll often be using DLSS Quality, which is a 1440p input resolution. If you look at the 4080 Super's performance at 1440p, that's a good proxy generally speaking for its performance at 4K with DLSS. The only games the 4080 Super isn't great for are the path traced ones, like Cyberpunk 2077, Alan Wake 2, or Outlaws. If you really want to play those games at the highest possible quality settings, you'll definitely want a 4090. Otherwise the 4080 Super will get the job done.https://youtu.be/-HQPkXGvmA0?si=98vTXLiIdkW7FYbT&t=1679>>102272849Radeon is a non starter unless you play a very specific game or have a specific use case. You're forced to use FSR for 4K, which is garbage. You don't save yourself $50 to lose DLSS. And of course there's all the other compounding problems with Radeonhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfI9rmTnxe8&t=331s
>>102276079i mean, if intel and amd implemented the feature on their GPUs, nvidia might have to follow suit right?
>>102276218I understand that, but the entire die gets covered with enough pressure and enough paste. What I don't get is why the excess of paste is so bad in this situation. Or why "spreading it thick is bad".
>>102276270>$300Have you looked at 4090 pricing? You can't get one below $1700.
>>102275984>muh vramGenerally speaking the performance of the GPU is the limiting factor, not the VRAM. A good example of this is the recently released Space Marine 2, where the 4060 has no problems with VRAM but it needs variable resolution even at 1080p with optimized settings to maintain 60 FPS. https://youtu.be/T9CwH7f1l1o?si=5d0jflyzT3JU3-4c&t=982Space Marine 2 isn't nearly as demanding as UE5 games, where the 4060 needs reduced settings and DLSS Quality at 1080p to get a playable FPS.>>102276325OK, so a $400 premium. My point still stands. The 4090 is about 30% faster in PT workloads, so a linear price/perf increase from the 4080 Super would be a $1300 price point. The premium is what you pay over that. And of course the absolute performance of the 4090 (as opposed to its relative performance) makes PT playable while reconstructing to 4K, so its extra worth is limited to its relative performance increase over the 4080 Super. >>102274687>ten yearsYou're not getting 10 years out of any PC in my opinion. You'd be using a GTX 770 as the equivalent if you built a 10 year PC 10 years ago, and that would be complete garbage. You should expect to drop in an end of the line AM5 CPU (hopefully) and upgrade the graphics card in about two generation, so four to five years.>to watch YTThe above is assuming you're gaming.

>>102274057You don't need a better CPU if you're only buying a $300 GPU. If you're buying new, your only options are the 4060 and the 3060 12 GB. Which one you buy depends on what your priorities are. A problem with your setup is that you only have PCIe 3.0, which can cause issues with the 4060. A good option might be picking up a used 3060 Ti or 3070. Maybe a 3080 would be in your budget if you know you don't need a new CPU>>102273692>Any games where ReBAR actually makes a difference on nvidia GPUs?Yes, IIRC the Dead Space remake was one.>>1022732181440p DLSS Performance looks better than 1080p DLSS Quality, and the performance requirements are the same. Always better to buy a 1440p over 1080p if you're having to buy a new monitor. The monitor is one of the longest lasting parts of your system; you can easily grow into it. And of course older games will run no problem even on relatively weak hardware.
>>102272898>7900XT is perfectly fine for couple more years even at 4kIt's far too weak, but the XTX he's considering upgrading to is also too weak.

>>102276523>>muh vramif only nvidia didn't cheap out on it you wouldn't have to repeat this multiple times per threadwhy is green vram so much more expensive than vram?
My GPU takes a shit if my case fans are just a little bit misconfigured. I don't know how it works but basically I have to go high RPM with these fuckers to avoid listening to some annoying humming at certain RPM (in some of them at 900RPM, some of them at 1100). Happens with all of them (even the noctua one) a bit inconsistently. No silence because if these fans drop just a bit below that RPM it's not good enough for the GPU and fans ramp up a lot quicker. I have a noctua cooler (NH-D15S), 2 Arctic P14 PWM intakes (front) and 1 Arctic P12 PWM exhaust (rear). Pic related. There's one slot for a 120mm (and I think 140mm?) fan on the top but I don't know if that'll end up adding even more noise as an exhaust.Any ideas? Could I fix that humming somehow?
>>102269192DLSS is massively better than TAA and FSR in Starfield, so some Geforce GPU. With settings optimization you might be able to get away with a used 3070 if you don't care about image quality too much, otherwise a used 3080.>>102269115The 4080 is better than the 3090 Ti, retard.>>102268654That type of VRAM chart is not an argumenthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foXX41XkT_E&t=7333s

>>102276769>repeat this multiple timesBecause AMDrones infest this this thread. /pcbg/ used to be an AMD safe space, and old trends die hard. VRAM is the only number where Radeon has a (generally useless) bigger number>why is green vram so much more expensive than vram?Who fucking cares? VRAM != performance. In workloads that actually need VRAM like rendering or AI, a 3060 is better than Radeon's best in terms of performance>cheap outI agree that Nvidia is somewhat stingy with VRAM, but if you look at e.g., the 4060 performance tier (historically the 2080 Super, 3060 Ti, and now the 4060), they've all got 8 GB. It's good to give developers a stable target, and it's also good not to hang your previous customers out to dry. Nvidia could have given that class 12 GB in my opinion (an extension from the 1080 Ti's 11 GB, which is in that performance class as well), but the cards generally don't need more VRAM considering their performance. Additionally, if Nvidia had given those cards 12 GB, you'd be whining about 16 GB anyway, and developers would be just as bad at optimization while filling whatever VRAM cache is given to them.
the harder you try the more I am likely to buy amd just so you get a stroke

>>102276844answer
>>102276916Yeah 16 is mostly a meme on the 4060 but there is no reason for cards as powerful as the 4070 is still on 12GB AND most of the 50 series will be as well according to leaks. Post the SW Outlaws VRAM usage. If the 4070 had 16GB AMD would be forced out of the midrange market too.

SFFchads, are there any ATX3.x SFX PSUs to even consider other than the 2024 version of the Corsair SF750?I try not to give Corsair any money if I can avoid it but their SFX PSUs never had much competition.
>>102277152>Post the SW Outlaws VRAM usage.Literally the only game
>>102277152NTA, and I completely agree with you. The trends clearly show VRAM utilization increasing over time in modern AAA titles. Nvidia has made it clear that if you want to game at 4K, you’ll need to buy their highest range cards such as a 4090.They will continue to cripple each new generation with inadequate VRAM. The 3000 series would have been perfect if not for their greed. Nvidia is doing everything they can to avoid another Pascal situation.
Remember, if it is just one example in favour on nvidia, it is irrefutable proof of the future. If it is not in favour of nivida it is a hack dev job not worth discussing as it is completely irrelevant. Once anons understand this things will be a lot smoother around here.

>>102277323>if it is just one example in favour on nvidia, it is irrefutable proof of the futureQuite the contrary, there are many more examples in favor of Geforce than Radeon, as every new game needs DLSS, whereas very few need VRAM.>it is a hack dev job>amd sponsored flopspokenYes it is. An ugly, technical abomination

>>102277422Any idea why that happened?Obviously that's not just a lack of VRAM.
>>102277422To be fair, I just bought an nvidia GPU with 12GB of VRAM and the game included with it was SW Outlaws. It's kinda funny. I have yet to redeem that piece of shit.
>>102276844If you absolutely need a PC now, yeah looks good if your main goal is gaming. I'd wait for 9800X3D and next-gen Nvidia coming out at the beginning of next year.
is radeon really as bad as anons itt make it look? I feel like it's impossible to get the same longevity and value out of nvidia. A 6750 beats a 4060 every day for less money, new.But oh no, no DLSS or AV1 encoding! (Does literally anyone actually care? Is anyone actually ok with smudged AI frames and a content slop creator?)The only reason I have nvidia right now is CAD software but radeon cards have basically caught up, and for the 5% performance delta between them I get better linux support and don't have to create an account to log into the software that allows me to use all the features of my gpu.

>>102277878> not using upscaling and its still blurry.Disable TAA and use native instead
redpill me on the 7800X3D, i havent looked at pcs in a while. why is it the ultimate cpu?
ah yes the mid-range card with 14900 and ultra xdddd
>>102277951i disable taa in cyberpunk and now everything is fizzling like crazy like lights having a seizure
>>102277878>DLDSRIt basically does what DLSS does but in reverse. Downscales from a higher resolution. So using DLDSR 2.25x and then using DLSS balanced mode brings it back down to native from a higher resolution basically being a form of super-sampling. and removing a lot of TAA nasties when you can't disable it.
>>102277975Fast as fuck
>>102278015Use another form of AA now like DLAA, DLSS, or SMAA. You can't just disable AA, you'll get jaggies.

>>102277820>>102277951>nativeComplete garbage.>>102277878>what is dldsrA setting you can enable in the Nvidia Control Panel that downsamples from a higher resolution to your monitor. It can help clear up some of the blurriness from TAA. It'll provide clarity improvements at a commensurate performance cost. Often it can be used in conjunction with DLSS for extremely cheap supersampling. One note about DLDSR is that it has to be use with exclusive fullscreen, not borderless. Also obviously use DLAA when available
