OLED is a huge upgrade; instant response and infinite contrast, and it's totally free in terms of computer resources.

don't fall for the 4k meme, though. scaling is bad.

27" 1440p 240hz+ OLED is endgame territory, and they're everywhere for like $600 now. don't use it as your main monitor though, for many reasons
- not RGB subpixel layout
- white background will use like 300% the power of an LCD, so documents and webpages
- burn-in more likely with all of the static UI of normal desktop tasks

they will last as long as an LCD if you use it for videos and games

>>102351501
All those cons is the reason why I will never use OLED.
I tried OLED. It looks so fucking good, but the fact that I can't use it for everyday stuff is what kills it for me. It's like buying good and expensive plates and cutlery but only using it once a year. I will never understand it.

How do binned GPU's work exactly?
Nvidia produced a chip with 2000 cores, all 2000 work properly, they sell it as-is as something called RTX **90?
Then another chip of the same make only has 1947 cores out of 2000 working so they disable those that don't work plus 147 more and the chip with 1800 working cores is now called the RTX **80 model?

>>102351700
This being the free game from NVIDIA is truly proof of them not giving a shit

>>102351894
some cores are dead. some cores are alive but cant clock as high. some cores can crash at high clocks but do good voltage at low clocks. its complex.

But the number of cores on every GPU model is exact, doesn't that mean that they almost always disable healthy cores in order to meet that number?
OR, do they specifically look for cores that work but not as well as could be, so they disable those and leave only the top performers?
In that case, the models where ~33% of cores are disables could actually have the best per-core performance.

lower the prices
GPUs need to lower their prices

>>102351984
>disable healthy cores in order to meet that number?
Yes, way back when you were able to reactivate these cores on certain products. It wouldn't always work, but it worked enough to be known about.

I only have 2 slots for NVMes
I plan to replace a 2TB HDD I have with a 2TB SSD, but I'd rather have those not populated by this particular drive.
I thought of either grabbing a SATA SSD or an external one, Crucial X6's seem cheap. I don't have much of an use for the external factor though. What would be a better option?

>>102352160
Huh? Just get NVMEs and populate the slots.

I already plan to grab 2 (one for the OS, one for storage and game installs). This is just a "backup" (non important stuff that I just want to keep somewhere) drive, but I want to replace that one first.

>the sata cable from my power supply is not powering my external ssd

Why the fuck is this not working

>>102352279
>external ssd
what

>>102351894
That's how they do it up to a point. There are also binned versions of chips with the exact same amount of cores enabled but higher performing ones (higher clocks at lower voltages) get sold as higher tier products like what happened with "A" and "non-A" rtx2000 gpus where the latter had worse clocks and had a strict locked down power limit.

Also yields are bad to a point such as having 99% of your chips having 80% or more of it's cores working. So to service the lower end of the market, Nvidia and AMD designs smaller versions of the flagship chip and use it in lower tier GPUs so they don't have to needlessly cut away 40-80% of a fully functioning die and waste silicon. So GPUs like the rtx2080 super has the fully enabled version of a smaller die while the rtx2070 gets a binned down version of the same chip while the 2080ti uses a bigger die and 2060 a smaller die

Bros, help.
I have this Asus Z790 Plus motherboard and it doesn't recognize my NVMe M.2 2280 SSDs as a bootable device. I even bought a new SSD and it still doesn't work. I read the manual and it should be compatible with that. In the UEFI BIOS thingy, on "Storage Information", the device appears properly (RAID: KINGSTON SKC3000D2048G) but it doesn't appear anywhere else. I tried plugging a bootable windows USB and it doesn't recognize it either. I updated the BIOS to the latest version (aug 2024).
I am losing my mind.

>>102352160
Usually not a fan of those external SSDs. I still prefer buying internal and using a USB to SATA adapter instead. No real reason other than the fact that if I ever want to put the SSD inside my PC I could easily do that. Externals I have to transfer files over.

I took out the old NVMe because I was worried that it may be interfering with something, so I planned on installing a fresh windows on the new NVMe just to make sure everything is working properly.
The thing is, when I try to install windows on that NVMe, the windows boot installer doesn't recognize it (it is missing even from the 'diskpart' and 'disc list' commands when I access the CMD (shift+f10 in the windows installer)

2) gigabyte FO27Q3 27" but 360hz and REGULAR oled (not QD). i heard people are considering it as an alternative to that msi
3) samsung oddysey OLED G6, 360hz

I also heard they all have forced DSC so no dldsr. of those 3, what should I choose if my priority is long term stable work. I just want to buy something and forget about it for >5 years at least. the prices are somewhat same

How about an ips display that wont burn in.

>>102353937
Option 1 is the best in terms of image quality due to both being QD-OLED and a glossy coating (the Samsung in #3 uses a matte coating that ruins the clarity and lushness of the image). For long term use I recommend also getting a cheap throwaway office LCD for main desktop/web usage and using the OLED for Video/Gaming only so it's doesn't burn-in prematurely.

I want to be able to sort of mute a HDD until I need to access it, which is rarely. Without just buying an external enclosure, all I'm getting now is the hard drive to either constantly spin or wake up from sleep at random even when I rarely access it myself because Windows is just like that.
Obviously I don't think it's great to just open my case to plug and unplug the drive everytime. What would you recommend?
Would mobo SATA hotswap settings help there? maybe under that mode it doesn't behave the same? Should I go bother /fwt/ for a Windows solution?

Samsung 980 is overpriced. Especially for 2TB. Just get a smaller drive, like 1TB.

>do you wanna say that OLED will burn in even if I use it every day with giving a fuck about safety shit?
If you let it run it's panel refresh cycles on schedule it'll be good for at least 3 years. If you don't and treat it like you would an LCD with a lot of static content and don't make use of the included panel safety features it could burn in in 6 months which I why I recommend using your current LCD if you aren't posting from a laptop or getting a dirt cheap one to use for non-dynamic content consumption. Think of OLED like a giant wax candle that is constantly burning it's wick down.

Ask yourself why you need 2TB and think REAL hard if you really need it. You could get a fast 1TB NVMe and a slower 1TB SATA SSD if all you really need is storage. If you are reading and writing large files constatly, and I mean large files and I mean constantly, like 30GB+ and every 30mins or so, then you can justify spending money on a really fast NVMe.

I'm one of the few people that like having my OS and everything else separate. 500GB really fast NVMe, 2TB SATA SSD for my stuff that I access constantly, and a 120TB HDD server.

>>102354325
Yes, any size aluminum heatsink is available on AliExpress, pretty affordable too and lots of sizes or designs.

>>102354325
Most decent motherboards have heatsinks on the VRMs. If not you can buy some, but probably not necessary

Thanks for the help, anons, and sorry for the late answer - fell asleep. Just moved from over a decade old Intel so almost 90°C seemed disturbing.

>I severely doubt that
The thing is, I got the tower used for cheap, with no parts other than the mounting kit for some old LGA. Looked it up - seems like I could turn it 90° with the different springscrew brackets, but the AM5 kit I bought only included the mounting bars. I wonder how it managed to fit at all with those LGA parts, even rotated, but can't complain - didn't cost much and cools sufficiently.

Then no. WaitTM until there's some game you actually need more performance for. E.g., I'm kind of waitingTM on the next Metro game. It'll probably have great (read: demanding) RT/PT, so I'll probably gauge my next graphics card purchase on that

That's surprising actually, I thought yields would be worse now than before because they're working with such small die sizes.

But what I really would like to know is, is it better to buy one of the 100% chips or one of the ones where cores have been disabled?
For instance, the 4070 Ti has the full 7860 cores of the AD104 up and running. That might sound pretty safe (especially when recalling the GTX 970 fiasco) but you might also think of it as Nvidia being lax on quality control here.
If all 7860 cores are running, it's reasonable to assume that some of them only perform "well enough" by Nvidia's standards. Maybe they generate a bit more heat but only around 3% more so it's not a huge deal.
Whereas with the 4070 Ti SUPER, they disabled 1792 out of the AD103's total 10240 cores, leaving only the most efficient 8448 cores active. So you might be tempted to think that that would give you a better per core efficiency.
What do you think about this?

>>102354329
Feel like I'd need to half both the price and size, I'm more flexible on the price. Really I've been playing on a 7+ year old budget TV for a while so sound doesn't have to be too great, just no easy distortion.
As an example shit like this will make my TV speakers absolutely choke lately.

im not buying a new psu for a retarded cable

So my 10 year old build finally kicked the bucket. On Monday I found out that one of my ram sticks burned out, so I ordered some cheap ddr3 ram to replace it, and the parts came in last night. After slotting everything in, I couldn’t get the machine to post so I gave up and handed the machine off to a friend who’s less tech illiterate than me, hoping that he might be able to fix the issue.

I don’t really have the money for a full build atm, I was saving up to get something really nice after tax season. I know you guys generally look down on pre built PCs, but can anyone recommend something under $700 (I can go very slightly higher) to tide me over for a few months while I save up for a more elaborate build? I’m a pretty casual boomer gamer. My current games right now are WoW, FF14, Dota, and Deadlock. None of these are particularly hard to run, they ran just fine on 10 year old hardware.

SLI is gone and nobody cares.

3060Ti is slipping and 5070 will likely be a dud with also 12GB of VRAM. probably will be mid 2025. Just get the 4070S and not wait 8 months, 3060Ti is similar to a 1080Ti with less vram and no tensor cores/DLSS so it's not doing so good even at 1080p.

Upgrading current build components. Initially I was only going for a case and AIO fan upgrade, but I'm debating if I should change from Intel to AMD CPU now to save the hassle.

WD 1TB SDD
>PSU:

Does the current build still sound fine with the CPU Cooler and Case and wait for a sale, or should I go ahead and get the motherboard/CPU upgrade?
I'm going by the sticky recommendations, but if there's other suggestions I should go for, let me know.

It's literally so they aren't used in rackmount cases.
There is no technical reason to have them on the side.
EVGA had theres in the rear but they where more than likely explicitly told it must be on the side and is probably part of the reason they left because it's a ridiculous request all to protect Nvidia's AI racket.

Only recently have Gigabyte been allowed to have a rear 12VHPWR but GB's PCBs are also obscenely wide.

Depends on how much you want to spend and where you live.

>>102357436
Only if you're building top-end. Current CPUs are plenty for any sensible card pairing and next gen Nvidia midrange is a year away.

guys what gpu do i pair with my 12700k? currently on a used 2060

was thinking 7900xt or waiting for 8000 series/battlemage

>>102357527
for 1440p144+

The 3060 6 GB is actually pretty decent. Makes almost any prebuilt you can find viable for some low end gaming. Most PS4 games and below will run quite well

some retarded chink is selling a 7900xtx on ebay for 1100$
would 700$ be a good counter offer?

>>102357708
Depends where you live and if you have a 1050Ti or not.
this link will give you all the cards without external power cable, available

+50% improvement in eight years, i'm honestly a bit dissapointed
why doesn't AMD make a proper 75W card?

>>102357527
>>102357534
You're in the right ballpark. Any of the GRE, 4070S, TiS, 7900XT(X), and 4080(S) would do depending on your settings and upscaling preferences.

so battlemage will be a mid-range card at best...

One of you faggots posted about the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor and got me really infatuated with it. But I want a low profile version of it but they don't exist.

Does anyone here know of anything resembling the Xeon Phi that comes in a low profile variant? Specifically a coprocessor, not a GPU or accelerator. I've looked for about a week and cannot find anything that compares or meets similar criteria.

Get alder lake, or raptor lake with Z mobo
Or just wait for arrow
Honestly sandy bridge would be enough even in 2100+, no reason to upgrade

Yeah just ((why))?
Because AMD released the RX 6600 and it's the best low budget Card currently on the market even tho it needs external power.

4070/ti are 1080p cards, 12GB VRAM is no longer good enough for 1440p

pic related is space marine 2 maxed out at 1440p with dlss quality on a 4080

They say more cores/threads are better for strategy games but the 7800X3D mogs all of them. I guess cache is king.

>>102358025
>depending on your settings and upscaling preferences

>>102358025
I guess. Even a GayStation 5 has like 16GB or some shit but it's shared so not really. Either way, there's more to it than that or else a 4060 with 16GB would destroy the 12GB 4070. Mostly texture quality but a lot has to do with your resolution too.

Almost never about VRAM
Almost always about performance

>>102358108
DLSS is a pretty good futureproofer though

>>102358129
now post ratio without upscaling

>>102357913
Xeon Phi itself barely exists; getting one in a particular format might be asking too much. Which is a shame, ofc, because it is a cool concept.

>>102358138
if dlss3 to dlss4 is as big as dlss2 to dlss3 then not really

Was going to get an i7-13700K but I noticed the KF is $30 cheaper do integrated graphics improve performance in any circumstances or are they completely superfluous?

But why would it matter? They're both too weak for 1440p without reconstruction

QuickSync for video editing, multi-monitor, and as a backup if your card dies. Probably worth $30 for the last one if this is your first build.

>multi-monitor
Interesting I have 4 monitors so this could be useful. Do you have to configure something or does it just help in the background?
>if this is your first build
Not my first build but I do like having a safety net and $30 isn't much in the grand scheme
Thanks.

>>102358279
>Do you have to configure something or does it just help in the background?
It doesn't increase performance or anything it just gives you another display output.

>Not my first build...
Than you probably have an old card you can use for backup instead. Still, could be worth the money if you don't trust your old GPU.

I'm planning to build a very basic home server using spare parts from an old gaming rig I have. The hoarders were right. I don't care about aesthetics so all I need to buy are the hard disks (Ironwolfs on the next sale, if ever).
How much of a disadvantage is it to use the Ryzen 5 2600 which I have as the CPU, as opposed to a CPU with integrated graphics? I have a spare GPU for the initial setup and can remote in afterwards, but how much idle wattage difference will there be vs some AM4 Athlon?

Can't find anything smol enough either. For context, this is more or less how my desk is looking right now (more or less 1px/mm, some objects' dimensions extra simplified, mousepad is super deformed with rounded corners so just dots for a rough outline, some things probably not measured quite right anyway).
I wish good monitors with speakers were real... was so close to going for the XG27UCS.

>>102358412
My nigga that card doesn't work because it was made in some warehouse in Xiazhouchienshang. They should've tried this with a better card.

If your game can't achieve over 60fps at native res on the most powerful cards your game is shit and you should try again

>resolution unspecified
Modern games are built around reconstruction. That's the only way that techniques like Nanite and Lumen are possible with current hardware performance levels

Retard question here. Thinking about getting a 1440 OLED monitor, MSI - MPG271QRXQDOLED 27" to be specific, was wondering if I can turn the refresh rate down to 120hz? I just like it better.

>>102358827
You can but that is definitely retarded

>>102358025
>12GB VRAM is no longer good enough for 1440p
nonsense

>>102358444
something as old as an athlon is going to be incredibly power hungry, and if you want to serve media from said server you're totally gimped with any amd gpu. Intel really dominates the use case you're going for unless you NEED huge media performance in which case ryzen cpu is ok paired with intel gpu

Thoughts?
Will use mainly for gaming at 1440p and general use.
$1500 budget not including monitor which I haven't picked yet. USA.

I would get an R5 7600, considering the degradation problems Intel has been having. Tempting at that price point though.
The Windforce is also one of the worst Gigabyte cards. Eagle or Gaming models have the Quiet BIOS switch

>>102360156
>degradation problems Intel has been having
Shit is that still an issue? I thought they had fixed the microcode.

Good catch on the graphics card I actually had decided on the Gaming model just didn't put it correctly on the image. Thanks.

Who fucking knows. The CPU is cheap but I'm not sure it's worth the annoyance of any possible instability
