ARL launch slips a week.

https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-core-ultra-200k-cpus-listed-in-canada-similar-pricing-to-14th-gen
Pricing looks competitive though (I am more worried about the price of the new socket mobos)

>>102332070
yeah the motherboard prices are whats going to kill Arrow Lake adoption but I predict they'll be basically Raptor Lake refresh tier but without the death and 300W

>>102332070
>new socket mobos
new socket again?

>>102332070
The motherboards will be worth every penny because they will run ddr5 at 9000-10000mhz

>>102332108
TDP numbers look promising, Intel is seriously on the way to do Core Duo come back in a gen or two, but I don't think they can beat EPYC without going full chiplet design.

>>102332128
>ddr5 at 9000-10000mhz

>hey wouldn't pull another 300w of melting power, would they?
well currently their PL2 is like 2.5x their PL1, and I think actual power draw is like triple the PL1. and PL1 is what they typically advertise as the official TDP.

So i could see "35W TDP" actually being 88-105W

slow system memory is a major bottleneck in computing just like spinning hard drives were

>>102332163
Straighten up those power cables especially the ATX 24 pin. Maybe invest in some right angle gpu power adapters if you're not afraid of melting your card. I don't even know what that japanime crap is but if you like it then ok. Otherwise it looks pretty sick imo

Save us Arrow Lake

>>102332410
Arrowlake will be on tsmc 4nm. Mark my words

>>102332120
Yeah, but it's the first socket change since 2022 and got 3 generations (or really two if you don't count refreshes) which is pretty good for Intel. Also should make ARL CPUs run cooler since they're changing the Socket ILM that caused bendy-dies and not-great contact pressure on LGA 1700.

Damn you're right I memory hole'd Bartlett. Imagine a 12 P-Core only system with 64GB of cheap DDR4 RAM on a $100-130 Z690 or B660 board. Could be a nice combo for min-maxing.

>>102332120
Yep. Arrow Lake and up will use the new LGA 1851 for their new meme technology that they copied from Apple. Raptor Lake and whatever trash after will still be on LGA 1700. Similar to AMD's AM4/AM5 situation. But this time you can actually justify Intel's actions because it's a brand new design.

>>102332298
Obsolete before it even launches. It's just getting pathetic at this point. You don't even wanna laugh anymore, you just feel pity.

It won't damage the mobo but it is a PITA to work with and doesn't meaningfully outperform much cheaper AIOs. I would, however, recommend it for a HEDT build where the large coldplate makes a real difference.

>>102332740
Sure. It's a cool concept and I'm glad to see firms experimenting with alternatives to heatpipes/water. If you're the kind of guy that likes that stuff for its own sake then feel free to spend the money. It's not as if it doesn't work; it's just not 100% minmaxed which is what most people here go for.

I really want to have my new build rack-mounted, but the thermodynamics seem shitty. Like, this shit only has three intake fans on the front and nothing else: https://www.sliger.com/products/rackmount/4u/cx4170a/. For a $100 more, there's a near-identical silverstone that gets two 80mm exhaust on the back. The other option would be to grab this and just sit it on a shelf with some rack ears: https://www.silverstonetek.com/en/product/info/computer-chassis/GD11/
This being said, I've seen like 4 different people cram 4090s into the first case and they all seemed to be fine (one can jerry-rigged a couple fans in the back somehow). Any thoughts?

Why are PS5 and Xbox just soulless AMD APU now? What happened to the days of wild, custom hardware architectures?

Saturn has a dual-CPU architecture and eight processors. Sega of Japan's Katana for Dreamcast. Emotion Engine is the PS2's CPU and Gecko is the GameCube's CPU.

Console exclusives were developed exclusively for a specific hardware and platform, developers used to optimize games specifically for consoles exotic architectures. It's a well known fact that hardware limitations are a good thing when it comes to video games, because it forces developers to be creative and optimize their work.

It's just money. A custom architecture might be cheaper per unit but actually doing the development, or farming it out, is insanely expensive nowadays. The bean counters run the numbers and decide x86 is cheaper overall. No doubt there's deals cut between the firms involved whereby they get a lower price if they both use the same basic architecture.

Running at 10000MT/s won't do shit. You still get mogged by 5 year old discrete gpu in memory bandwith. There are other limitations for igpu but memory bandwith has to be the main one.
GPU and igpu performance will continue to bifurcate even more as cpus and gpus continue to specialize in their own use cases. I'm pretty sure this has been the trend all along. If someone disagrees please tell. I think the difference between gpu and igpu today is much larger than lets say 10 years ago.
People wishing for powerful igpu will continue to be disappointed.

They are under the false pretense that ram speed doesn't matter and don't know that CPU advancements in the last 20 years have been about hiding the memory speed gap (prefetch, caches, pipelining etc.)

it's a problem because the throttle temperature to stop the silicon from completely cooking itself is based on the aggregate temperature, and if the paste is THIS bad and the deltas can be that out of control then it means that it runs a risk of damage in my opinion

Thanks for the links, I really hadn't heard about this issue yet.

I guess yours is only "fine for now". I'm assuming you haven't gone through enough thermal cycles to get pump out and noticeable TIM performance degradation? Do you know if this affect all AIBS/Radeon?

I just repasted a few older NVIDIA cards and the difference is massive from the one I haven't repasted (repasted delta=8ºC, OEM=15.3ºC), so it's probably not a completely new problem.

Hey,
Currently I have a gaming laptop:
Intel i9 14900HX
Nvidia 4080
32gb of DDR5
2 4tb NVME drives

It's on its way out, i've had 3 new motherboards from the manufacturer and they all died the same, long, slow, degredation like death. I've got it under a store warranty that gives me a gift card for it. Saying that,

I'm in the US. My budget is 2500 dollars. I have 2 1440p monitors but i'd like another monitor of some kind to replace the built in laptop display. I have a mouse and keyboard, and i'd be reusing my nvme drives. I was thinking of going linux for this one because of how awful my windows 11 experience has been, so I heard AMD gpus were good for that, but correct me if i'm wrong. The CPU has to be AMD. These recent intel cpus have been nothing but shit for me.
I play a lot of games, only at 1440p but at the budget i have i'd like to have the option to play any game at 4k max settings. I do some video editing and productivity things. I record and stream on occasion for tournaments I run.
Thanks in advance, let me know if you need any more information.

>>102333527
I don't think it's going to end up cheaper or more practical than a high end workstation case, but if you're doing it to save on floor space by using a rack you already have, go for it.

My honest suggestion is that you look into deshrouding and ducting the 4090 you plan to put in there so you don't end up with an extra oven in the office.

bros how badly did I fuck up in ordering my AM5 parts? I'll have to cope hard with RAM overclocking limitations compared to DDR4, not to mention the long boot times. Fuck everyone who shilled for AM5 and new Ryzens, now there's no backing out I should have gone with a 10900k

it uses fsr instead of dlss
its rt and blender performance is poor compared to 4080
ofc if you want to mess around with ai like llm/local diffusion the 4080 is better for that too

in raw raster it is on par with 4080 or even slightly better in some cases and has more vram headroom, but it is more power hungry and you will have to get an 850w psu for it

because of the 4080's 16G vram it needs dlss on to make 4k work too. It's a 1440p card >>102333169

>>102333731
You know one would assume a $1,600 card would easily last 10 years but it’s not like that. These cards are for people who can just buy them, they’re not long term investments. The 20 series was their revolutionary ray tracing card and it can’t even do ray tracing. Besides, once some meme technology comes out it won’t matter what card you have. When DirectX 11 released it didn’t matter how expensive your little DirectX 10 paperweight was.

>>102334157
People didn't really know how to program for largely parallel machines back then, and other aspects of the PS3's architecture meant that it still lagged behind the 360. It's not that it was "hated," but it was seen as a meme. The stupid high price of the console contributed to this further.

>>102333787
theyre crap. theres options in the BIOS that literally do nothing. I was so frustrated when i set a top frequency limit in the bios, but the computer kept just going to its max stock frequency. got rid of the board cuz i was sick of dealing with it. find out a couple years later asrock often uses a single interface, so boards that are less featureful just ignore the options if you choose them

Build advice plx post:
In America, budget is flexible if it needs to be, but I'm spiritually jewish and $1500 dollars is already causing me mild indigestion. The use case is indyshit tier Unreal Engine development, and related software (e.g. Blender). I will obviously not be making Skyrimberpunk 2077: Tears of the Erdtree with this. Regarding monitors, I've got a couple 1080p monitors from over a decade ago that are probably fine. If I need to upgrade, that bridge will be crossed when I come to it.

What I've pieced together is this: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/cLxJjH

I wanted to run it by others to double check
1.) Any red flags that I'm too dumb to notice?
2.) Any blatant improvements/better compatibility with parts that wouldn't break the bank? I might be able to be talked into a beefier AMD processor (I'm aware recent Intel chips a SHIT), BUT various places found via Google suggested a Ryzen 9 5950x plows through UE5 just fine. And I'd rather not have to liquid cool whatever processor I get. I also see very little reason to make the GPU 50% of the final cost when it sounds like a 16 GB 4060 will be plenty adequate.
3.) Any obvious cost reduction options that wouldn't dent performance? I am pretty sure I cheaped out to the greatest extent possible already.

I appreciate any help.

>>102333964
But, in a way; Sony could make even more money by releasing PS5 remasters of PS4 games. It was pretty funny in their PS5 Pro reveal how they kept showing improvements to games that were from the PS4 era.

1080p at 24" is below passable in 2024 but if you already own them, it'd be understandable as a cost savings. Are they just 60Hz?

>3.) Any obvious cost reduction options that wouldn't dent performance? I am pretty sure I cheaped out to the greatest extent possible already.
https://www.techpowerup.com/review/amd-ryzen-9-9950x/9.html
For rendering applications such as Blender, the 13700KF is a bit faster and a bit cheaper than the 5950X. Also DDR4-3600CL18 is the same performance wise as DDR4-3200 CL16 and the latter rated kits tend to be cheaper.

You don't need to spend $180 for a quality mobo either:

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/QJC48d/asrock-b760m-steel-legend-wifi-micro-atx-lga1700-motherboard-b760m-steel-legend-wifi
Both options are pretty feature rich for the same price but make sure they fit your personal requirements for the system (I chose the MSI version as it had an extra PCIe slot).

The difference between NVMEs isn't noticeable in real world applications if this isn't a datacenter. Note that 2x2TB drives would save you about $14 but that's up to you and I'm assuming you KNOW you'll need that much SSD capacity.

For the price and feature-set (Integrated WiFi Support) it's not bad. However, checking competing options at the same price I'd go with the ASRock B650M Pro RS WiFi like >>102334681 mentioned that has an extra M.2 slot for more NVME support as well as an extra USB 3.2 header by comparison and see equal otherwise.

PS2 Emotion Engine and PS3 CELL were nightmares for programmers. the only people who actually got to use it to its full potential were Naughty Dog. People also forget that the reason Sony was so insistent on pushing their custom in the PS2 and PS3 was because they had plans to license out the Emotion Engine and Cell technology for other uses beyond video game consoles.

Kutaragi wanted the PS3 to ship with 1 cell as a cpu and 1 cell as a gpu. Mark Cerny is fucking insane for STILL having only himself know exactly how the PS3 worked and never sharing it with anyone aside from those secret CELL developers at Sony.

They were either falling behind in development, or realized that this was utter fucking stupidity, so they went plan B and asked Nvidia to give them whatever was their best chip at the time, bolted it on, and shipped it.

Mark Cerny wanted PS4 and PS5 to be AMD APUs because it was cheapest and easiest for programmers

FX-8350 @2GHz, a HD 7850 and a 5000 RPM hard drive are roughly equivalent to a PS4.

Ryzen 7 3700X and an RX5700 which are roughly equivalent to a PS5.

My favorite part about the PS2 is how architecturally similar it is to the Saturn, which they ABSOLUTELY shat on.

Thanks, broheim. I want to specifically avoid the 13th gen Intel processors due to the ongoing shitshow at Intel, but the other recommendations sound good. I'll try to scope out a slightly cheaper motherboard with the AM4 chipset too.

>>102335763
if 1440p or above prolly like 1%

1-5% if 1080p maybe idk

>>102335763
1%

Like 3% at worst. Not enough to stress over unless you can get CL30 for a reasonable price.

NP. Now that the Microcode update is out as long as you flash your BIOS immediately post-assembly, building with a fresh new un-degraded 13th Gen Intel chip is no longer a problem.

>>102335671

Holy shit I thought you had to apply thermal paste in the yellow part

practical for getting it to fit without banging into the GPU, the D15S is no less durable than the D15.

makes me sad that we cant just buy a set of components that are a "phone" or a "pc" or "tv" and we all just make it work
cars are literally modular.
why cant i have a phone with 120hz display with 1 camera and a gorillion hours of battery with as slim as the battery can be
holy fuck

LTT Store, Moddiy, Corn Electronics from Newegg/Amazon.

>>102335969
Probably bullshit take, based on general mistrust of any chink sites/sellers, so thats understandable.
I can say though that i bought some upsiren pcm-1 from aliexpress which supposedly performs just as well as ptm7950 and i've had no issues with it; performance upgrade was within expectations.

are dual chamber cases good?
bought a new keyboard recently and pic related (corsair 6500x) caught my eye since I was thinking about getting a new case to make sure a new card fits
so viable or just a meme?

>buy a new case
its gonna be here this week and i will be able to assemble my pc over the weekend
no chances of glass breaking
have to spend money again
>use montech air 903 max
dont have to spend money again
probably going to get it next week
chance of glass breaking and destroying my pc
what do I do bros?

>are dual chamber cases good?
they are good, just not the corsair one. consider the antec c8 or the hyte y40/y60

>>102336337
I don't think they're memes but obviously being that they take more horizontal space they're a bit of a nuisance on a desk. Which is weird because they're made not to tuck under it.
I'm not expert at airflow or whatever, so I don't know if it'd be less beneficial to have a narrower case.
On that note I replaced my Phanteks P300A with a Lancool 216 and good lord this thing is a behemoth. I didn't think the P300A was that small, and now I'm learning this is supposed to be the average sized case. Very easy to build on but it's weird how fan configurations other than default either do dick or make things worse, now I have spare fans that I won't use and a GPU that still takes it in the ass

>>102336353
Are you getting the Montech Air 903 max for free? What's with this "Have to spend money again" business?

bros i have an open case cause my 4090 doesn't fit in it lmoa am i gonna be k or should i get to buzzing this glass door i have

im pretty sure i bought a corsair cable like a year ago never put it in but them niggaz aren't as safe as i thought or something?

there is a lot of fake and clone ptm7950 out there. the real stuff is 0.25mm in thickness but the fakes are 0.20mm or less.

Any yuropeans around?
How does ASUS cover GPU warranty?
Like let's say I want to use that cool PTM whatever (or a substitute) on my GPU, but there's that fucking sticker on one of those screws. It doesn't say "warranty void if removed". Motherfucker is just a red circle now. But it's still there. I thought they no longer did this.
Years ago people were telling me removing stickers didn't void a GPU warranty in the US, but Europeans got buttfucked. Dunno if that changed.

>>102336477
i would just buy and use a new case instead of already paid for montech 903 air

>>102336515
If you paid for that just get that one, don't overspend. Although you could return it, couldn't you?
Anyways more and more cases have glass panels unfortunately. It's a shame, I wish there was some non glass panel for my Lancool 206. After all the only RGB included there is in the fucking front fans anyways and I could kick the case without worrying. I heard the Air 903 is a really good case in any... case

thats not a warranty sticker. thats a tamper sticker. it lets the RMA office know the card has been opened before. if it explicitly says "warranty void if remove" then that's a warranty sticker like on some ssds. doesnt mean warranty is void. as always contact asus eu support and confirm before anything.

>>102336536
Lancool 216*
Also I gotta say, I love the 216 but whoever designed the mechanism for taking out the glass panel needs to get a slapping. You gotta apply a little bit of force to take it out and it could just accidentally fall off.

I guess I'll have to ask. Previous 2 GPUs I bought used so I didn't bother with this before.

>>102335078
>>102335211
Okay, guess I'll check the upgrade to 7900 XT at home and if it doesn't suite me I'll downgrade to cheaper CPU
And thanks for the heads-up with the memory, honestly I picked it just based on manufacturer and price range, didn't look into specifics.

thermal grizzly phasesheet is the equivalent if you're in europe, they also sell kryosheet which is better but not recommended if your ILM and/or cooler coldplate are shit tier

you already posted this last thread
it doesn't matter, you can undervolt one or overclock the other

just pick the colour you prefer

Honestly it's the same shit, you gotta undervolt it so it doesn't get noisy

sounds like you dont know how to setup wifi properly. therefore you lack a fundamental lack of networking knowledge

Built a PC 4 months ago, everything was find (Though DDR5 with AMD slow boot wtf).
Anyway it won't power up. MOBO lights up but no case fans. CPU fan blows.
Removed the RAM, reseated it, changed them, used only one. But nothing, same issue.

>>102337770
Known good earthing from that wall plug? Try plugging into a UPS if you have one or a plug you are 10000% certain is earthed.

You could try giving it a gentle shake, maybe some conductive debris is shorting something out. If you used conductive thermal paste maybe it pumped out onto surface mount components?

>>102338050
oh also try changing power cables, you never know
