Alright AMD let's hear it. How do you plan to increase your market share from 8% to 40% with RDNA4?
>>102391433What game?
i dont understand all this brand loyalty autism. even if one is better than the other the nvidia and and cards ive owned all played the games i wanted to play just fine.
>>1023914688800XT is going to be $499 and 7900XT tier.
>>102391510all of them
>>102391517That hasn't been the case for me. I owned an HD 7970 and an RX 470 and both were absolutely crippled by Radeon's DX11 driver
>>102391517https://forums.anandtech.com/threads/what-does-the-way-its-meant-to-be-played-mean.1111767/>It means that I for one REFUSE to buy any more nVIDIA video cards untill they stop bloody cheating. You want to know the exclusive features? Here's one: They let you choose "Application Specific" as a setting, but then they completely ignore what the application tells it to do (UT2k3). Since any normal person only stares at the FPS counter on the top right while playing UT2k3 and not anything else, they "optimize" their drivers to increase framerates and while sacrificing image quality. Then again, what does the consumer know? All he did was pay 500$ for the video card. nVIDIA engineered the card, so isn't it only fair that they decide how it works?<-- feeling very frustrated about all this driver 'optimizing' crap. I need to get away from all this.from 2003this is 2024 and this still happens

Is it safe to build with 13th gen intel after the microcode update? Did all the board partners fix their overclocked vdd too? I can’t find shit about anyone confirmind anything on the intel voltage situation
>>102391794No one knowsI wouldn't risk the hassle, although I know 13th and 14th gen are selling cheap right now
>>102391701HAHAHAHAAHA
>>102391683very unfortunate, that R&D money would be better spent improving their architectures
>>102391794do you trust intel? if so, yesit's still running the same voltages but according to intel it's fine now

i have a gtx 1660 super, one day all of my games started running like ass, i tried a fresh windows install and clean instaling my graphics drivers, using my friends old gtx 1060 but still no dice. when i loaded up furmark i saw the power was being maxed out at 120w, and in games like street fighter 6 at max settings 1080po only 20w to 40w was being drawn from the system. what is going on? power supply issue? I also ran a cpu stress test during furmark and my system didnt turn off so i dont know if its a psu issue since i assume it would have turned off.
The average consumer still trust intel more. Of top 100 desktop pc sold, 97 are intel. The most popular AMD desktop is ranked 68. Its over.https://www.amazon.com/Best-Sellers-Computers-Accessories-Tower-Computers/zgbs/pc/13896597011/
>>102392308the average consumer is also fucking retarded so what does that say
>>102392308i believe you. in fact, blue is the most popular color at 42%. I wouldn't be surprised if many just saw a blue cpu and bought that one.

So the marketing fucking them and they aren't fighting back either. It's only made worse here when retards scream at you for buying anything but Nvidia.

Why am I stuttering with this PC? I get microstutters constantly in multiple different games. Elden Ring, Ghost of Tsushima, even Skyrim was stuttering. My temps and everything are fine, there's just seemingly random frametime spikes where I freeze for 2-4 frames. It's not enough to mess with anything but it's enough to piss me off and give me a headache. I ran unigine superposition seven times and in one of those I had two stutters but for some reason the rest were fine.My framerate is perfectly fine by the way. And in Ghost of Tsushima I set my settings all the way to the lowest option and the resolution to 1080p and I was still getting microstutters.
>>102392499Red means death in computer or Nazis because Jews fear them. I don't blame them for being afraid.>>102392491Those paid shills have managed to make a company worth more than the people making your CPU. A GPU cannot operate without a CPU so stifling their growth also hurts Nvidia. Intel isn't going to catch up to TSMC anytime soon.>>102392525And this type of propaganda is why Nvidia is so huge. All it takes is a simple out of context no longer relevant thing to haunt them forever. It's not even the drivers it's Windows WDDM. And they fixed this stuff like years ago like versions of Windows not even supported anymore years ago like 21H2.
>>102392525https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WintelIt's follusok at the very fucking topIntel got sued for antitrust and lostI hope Nvidia gets their shit pushed in by the law

Appreciate any comments on this build. It's been over 15 years since I built something worth more than $500. I know the RAM is overkill but it's been a dream of mine to have 64GB+ of ram since I was a teenager so this is adult me fulfilling teen me fantasty.I'm going to run local AI models, do development and run games from the past 15 years. Hoping it's relatively future proof as it'll probably be that much time again until I buy a brand new machine again.CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7900X 4.7 GHz 12-Core Processor CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15 82.5 CFM CPU Cooler Motherboard: ASRock X670E Steel Legend ATX AM5 Motherboard Memory: Corsair Vengeance RGB 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6400 CL36 Memory Memory: Corsair Vengeance RGB 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6400 CL36 Memory Storage: Samsung 980 Pro 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive Video Card: Gigabyte WINDFORCE OC GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER 16 GB Video Card
>>102392596I assume this is what you need? I have no idea what any of it means.
>>102392667you're not getting DDR5-6400 working with 4 sticks>>102392680first thing i would try is update the BIOSyour chip might need more VSOC for that RAM speed, but try updating first
>>102392637just downclock to 5.4ghz at 1.25v and you wont crash
>>102392667If you're doing AI, I strongly suggest getting a 4090 if you can get a cheaper CPU like the 7800x3D and a cheaper motherboard to try and get it into your budget. The 24GB of VRAM is so useful and Nvidia knows they're jewing you to get you to pay the premium.
Does the motherboard really matter? What's the difference between a $400 ASUS motherboard vs a $200 one? Should I just get the cheapest WIFI motherboard?
>>102392693Thanks for the heads-up, is it a matter of the speed or do AM5 mobo's just complain at having all slots full?>>102392717Unfortunately 4090s around here are basically the entire budget ($3000-3500AUD) of the build.
>>102392742>is it a matter of the speed or do AM5 mobo's just complain at having all slots full?the second one, realistically you won't be able to run more than 4800-5000 with all 4 slots populated6400 can also be kinda hard to run so i would recommend just getting 2x32 6000C30 sticks
>>102392742>>102392717Depending on how often you'll run local AI models, it could be cheaper to rent an A100 on vastai. It should only be around $1/hr
>>102392582Is there any confirmation that's not just an issue with Jedi Survivors? >>102392693Thanks, I'll update my bios. In case that doesn't work, and I don't reply in time, can you clarify what you mean by "your chip might need more VSOC for that RAM speed"? Do you mean increase my CPU voltage in my bios?
>>102392755Thanks for your help, I'll go with the 2x32 sticks>>102392759Thanks for the link, I'll check out renting cloud GPUs while I'm fucking around and learning. A large reason why I want to run locally is there is client data I'd like to train models on and don't want the data going to any 3rd parties.
using an AMD GPU just doesn’t *feel* right
>>1023921244070Super. Happy with it for $600, coming from a 1080Ti it's a pretty massive upgrade. Happy I skipped out on the previous generations but wished I could've made it to 5000 series before my 1080Ti shit the bed. IMO not really worth buying a $1000+ GPU to be able to use the new RT features at a decent resolution without trickery. I'd rather wait till the technology matures and then buy high again. We're at a transitional point in GPU hardware and it's going to age faster than ever.
>>102392788If you're serious about AI shit, don't get a 4090. Get yourself a proper GPU. NVIDIA RTX A6000 is a good start.
>>102392771>can you clarify what you mean by "your chip might need more VSOC for that RAM speed"? Do you mean increase my CPU voltage in my bios?yes, but not the actual core voltage, there's a bunch of other voltages on AMD CPUsthey can be hard to find in the BIOS so i wouldn't recommend messing around with this until you've exhausted all other options, but if you want to give it a try this is what i would recommendnone of this is unsafe but i wouldn't go any higher on VSOCan easier option would also be to try a lower RAM speed like 3200 and see if the stuttering goes away, if that's the case then it's definitely caused by infinity fabric instability
why is nvidia always painted as a bad guy for AMD being behind on technology?
>>102392792>>102392853nvidia has inaccurate hw t&lradeon has been delivering you accurate hd graphics since nintendo gamecube/xbox 360.
>>102392839Oh fuck, wrong thing to paste. I meant to paste NVIDIA Tesla A100. I think it's one or two generations behind. 4090 is a consumer GPU and not for real AI.
>>102392792the moment you use radeon settings, you will not go back.
>>102392863And if you want the latest GPU then you're going to want the Tesla L40. Way better than the 4090.
>>102392881yes I would not go back to Radeon because the nvidia control panel is peak

>>102392885Didn't NVIDIA switch to Adrenalin like control panel recently?
>>102392935reflex must be added by the developer and games with anticheat that try to inject reflex will kick you out or ban you. anti lag works for all games and doesnt ban anymore.>>102392939it has more telemetry out the ass, its even slower, and its missing a large list of features posted up there.
>>102392935>And let's just take a moment that AntiLag got a HUGE number of people b&Ah yes, the feature that was exclusive to the beta version of the Adrenalin Software got 6 millions people banned.

>>102392966lol dogshit game.I'm impressed people still play it but ERPing sovles everything
>>102392966How is that game by the way? I have it installed but I haven't actually played it properly.
>>102392966That's just a knock of of Nvidia's LLM, which is meh compared to Reflex
>>102392973nobody cares what you think little bitch.>>102392974it's great as long as you do the latency optimization tricks that are exclusive to radeon since nvidia gets banned for it.>>102392977not true, they updated it and it works differently for certain game engines. this game is one of those custom engines that scales really well with anti lag and it has no reflex in-game and adding it manually is well you know a ban lol.
>>102392996LLM is available in all games, and has been for a long time. You're late to the partyIt's not Reflex, and neither is AntiLag. Anti-Lag+ tried to be and got a bunch of people b&, so it got completely replaced by AntiLag2, which is in nogaems
>>102393023anti-lag still feels better because theres no nvidia driver overhead. pso2 is a cpu bound game but it can also get gpu bound quickly. it bounces between both like a yoyo very fast actually.
>>102393040AMDelusionalAnyway let's just take a moment to remember AMD's first attempt at Reflex

>>102390824Also a leaf ordering a new PC and a part of me was wondering how worth it it is to simply order to a nearby US shipping site and bringing it across the border. From what I gather, you declare it and whether or not the border guard is having a nice day, he might just wave you through. Pretty crazy, because ordering to the US becomes either a colossal discount, or a minor loss depending on which event occurs and you end up paying dutyNot sure if I wanna risk my IRL luck stat. I also had a nightmare of a time at the border last time for not getting the vaxx, so I 'm probably already red flagged there.
>>102393254it happens on the desktop too, and it only happens with monitor OC mode on too
>>102393264Yeah, I don't think my Dell monitor even has an OC mode. It just natively supports 165Hz.

I just updated my bios and now my monitor has no signal and the red cpu light is on. Wtf just happened?
>>102393357
>>102393431you probably flashed the wrong bios onto it
>>102393431what board? did you turn it off while it was updating?
>>102393462B450 tomahawk max. I was updating and it just turned off. When I turned it back on it did this. I downloaded driver 7C02v3K2. My cpu is a 5800x3d. I tried resetting cmos and it does nothing.
>>102393431what board and cpu. some of them are not compatible with later bios versions.does the board have bios flashbackclear cmos
>>102393480lucky you have the flash button on the back of the board

good morning i hate pc devs
>>102393542Also I tried with rhe latest bios and the previous one on the USB. Neither one works.
>>102393542is. The drive FAT32
>>102393559Yes, it is. I formatted it too. It has that system file information hidden folder that windows adds, could that be an issue? I can't delete it.
>>102393542first of all do a "reset" of the board by turning off power on the PSU for like 10-20 secondsi have to do this before clearing CMOS on my gigabyte board or it gets stuck in some weird low-power statesecond make sure you follow all the instructions in the manual VERY clearly, the file MUST be called MSI.ROM and the flash drive MUST be formatted as FAT32

>>102392124Started off with gtx 770 to rx 480 (4gb) to 5700xt but got tired of black screening so I went and got a new rtx 3080 12 gb for dirt cheap 2 years or so back.I suspect I'll be staying with this one for a while until Nvidia stops being jewish somehow or AMD improves on their tech. A shame since I do want to move onto 4k, though I'm sure my current card can handle older titles. Newer ones might require an upgrade.

Is this the right place to ask about PC audio stuff? I don't see anything in the OP about headphones or speakers.I've got some old Logitech system from the 2000s that I think is finally giving up the ghost. Good plug-and-play 2.1 and 5.1 systems like it seem to be on their way out, and apparently bookshelf speakers are the way to go now, but how does that all work? Everything I see says you need an amp and a DAC and a bunch of other junk to get a setup like that to work. Where should I start looking for all that? The audiophile rabbit hole is a deep one, and I don't care about listening to Steely Dan with $5000 audio snakes, I just want an idiot-proof solution that sounds decent and has proper stereo separation.
>>102393879Zen5 wasn't a refresh, it really was an improvement but they're bottlenecked by IF so only productivity applications got a real uplift, gaming got a minimal uplift but the big problem with Zen5 is the price and they're basically competing with themselves.I don't really blame Intel for only getting a 1% uplift for Raptorlake Refresh but the fact they tried to pass it off as another gen sucks, they should have just called the 14900K the 13850K but w/e.

>>102394282didn't Intel just cancel their 3nm node?
>>102393982I personally prefer separates but there's plenty of PnP 2.1 sets out there. The "good" ones are going to cost you a decent chunk but only slightly more than a similar separates system. If you don't want to go down the rabbit hole just go ahead and buy an S350DB (or variant) and call it a day.If you would like to assemble your own system you'll need a receiver or amp, speakers, sub, and wires. An external DAC is optional but desirable if your PC audio is prone to interference (crackling). Set a budget and have a look at what you can afford. Very roughly speaking, spend about 10% on the amp and split the remainder about equally on the speakers and sub. Stick to 2.0 if your budget is under ~$500 - better to put the budget into the speakers in that range.

A bad one can make it slower though so spend at least enough to get a full mesh front panel.>CPU coolerIf your CPU is "65W" class then the stock one will be fine until you can save up $20-30 for a tower cooler. If it's an unlocked i7 or R9 then those $35 Thermalrights should be the baseline.>StorageGet less capacity and add more as necessary. Probably best not to go under 1TB.>MoboExamine your needs carefully and spend the time to find the cheapest board that satisfies them. You can use an add-in card later if you find you need some other feature.>PSUI'm going to catch flak for this but I'll say it anyway - if your rig is going to pull like 400W under full load you can get away with a B-tier model. I will say that, as with the case, the PSU can be amortized over multiple builds so don't drop it so hard that you wouldn't want to reuse it.>Main silicon (CPU/GPU/RAM)The last place to cut. Be frank about your actual needs - if you're not getting paid for your work then it doesn't matter if your renders take 10 seconds or 10 minutes. Gaming, likewise, is a discretionary expense.

I’ve never gotten a top of the line cpu before, usually go for the 12700k equivalent of every generation. I might try my luck with the 285k or whatever this time…assuming it can be air cooled. If none of intels CPU’s can be air cooled I might go amd this time.
remember to preorder 5090
>>102395095This is why I'm less than inclined to wait for 5000 cards and get a 4070 Ti SuperThey're just going to release an overpriced 5090 and 5080. And then reduce the price for the 5080 only due to backlash.Rumors are already stating the 5090 to cost near $2000. And if that's true then the 5080 is going to be higher than the 4090 and that's already out of my budget.

It'll have 2 radiators, one from the Suprim 4090 and one from the CPU cooler, not sure what the best orientation is, looking to have a glass window at the front and side so I can see my RGB, might want to put a display figure inside too.Also, there's no reason the Samsung drives can't be set up raid configuration, right? Just double checking that's available for M.2 slotsBudget for case: less than $400 aud / $268.20 usdBudget for whole system: $6600 aud / 4425.30 usdCountry: AusfagPersonal taste: I like corsair and Samsung, but, don't really care for the case to be limited to those brands

>>102395428Will that gpu help me run newer games?My rx580 couldn't run wukong on the lowest settings
>>102395472Queensland, the main thing that always gets me is thermal paste.
>>102395510are you in SEQLD?
>>102395503it has the same performance as the 4060
Any CPU benchmarks that span multiple generations? Like going back to intel 9th/10th gen vs current?
>>102395510fuck you queensland nigger
Televisions are all now 4K, 1440p is a PC memealso output resolution does not matter, even before FSR DLSS the consoles were using upscaling technology
>>102395515Yeah mate.100km North of brissy
>>102395548>also output resolution does not matter, even before FSR DLSS the consoles were using upscaling technologyMost PS3 and Xbox 360 games ran at sub-720p
>>102395549ah, if you were on the Gold Coast I'd come help.what are you looking for in a system? gaming? work?
>>102395557upscaling from 720p to 1080p is still upscalingbut that is a different time, when people still had 720p televisions and shit

>>102395235Exactly
>>102395567Just gaming, I haven't had a PC for about 1.5 years, but all my mates are getting back into it with spacemarine 2 so I'm getting back on the horse.
>>102395581>>102395596I don't miss the Vista era bros
>>102395596whats your budget? and are you averse to AMD?
>>102395596>Just gaming, I haven't had a PC for about 1.5 years, but all my mates are getting back into it with spacemarine 2 so I'm getting back on the horse.All you need is 7800X3D and 7800 XT or 7900 XTX if you just want to play some games. Everything else you chose is fine>What about NVIDIA?Wait for 5000 series
>>102395605Probably around $2200I actually prefer AMD, not sure why though.
will the 5090 finally do 4k 240hz?
>>102395605>>102395616>I actually prefer AMD, not sure why though.AMD is the only way if you're just gaming>CORSAIR 4000DAbsolutely kino m8
DLSS 4 will give you 3x the fake frames
>>102395623they'll either market it as a 8k 60 gpu or a 4k 60 PT gpu. or both.
>>102395643>>102395623>muh RTX>muh DLSS>muh SLI>muh geforceI just want to play with my bros
>>102395647sorry but you can never have your formative gaming years back ever again
are they really fake if you can't tell?
all frames are fake by definition
>>102395633I actually installed the thing jsut to see how it runs, 7700x/7900xt I cna't fucking tell, but it manages 60 fps with RT on at 1440p now without upscaling.
Game graphics haven't advanced a single bit in 15 years, stop falling for the GPU treadmill.
>>102395698cope
>>102395693You are way above the specs it's asking for. You would only want a 7900 XTX or 4090 if you plan on playing at 2160p RTX and other gimmicks or just want the 24GB VRAM to last you a long time>Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 recommended specs (1080p/60fps)OS: Windows 10/11 64-bitCPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X / Intel Core i7-12700RAM: 16GB RAMGPU: 8 GB VRAM, AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT / Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070DirectX: Version 12Storage: 75GB available space, SSD required

>>102395698You do not replay many games from 2010.
>>102395769difference between NH-D15 normal and G2 version is huge wow
>>102395782I wish more PS360 games got better DX12 ports
>bought a Toshiba 120gb sata SSD last year because it was $9>Check SMART with crystal disk info>Shows 66TB of writes and 0% health>Check with windows smart command and HDDScan>Both show perfect healthIs crystal disk info fucking up? Which other software shows total writes?
Intel arc a870 needs to be $250 and as good as rtx4070ti. With that intel won.
>>102395903Try hwinfo64
>>102395903Total writes isn't technically a component of SMART so different vendors record it differently. Sometimes that makes for misreporting on drive health in 3rd party programs. Try Toshiba's own SSD management software (if it still exists). I will say that it's probably fine if you bought it new, and not from Aliexpress, but you're on your own if it was second-hand.
My display randomly turned off. Do I have to put hdmi port to my mobo for DDU or is it fine to do it while I'm plugged in to GPU?
why is gpu.userbenchmark so autistically against AMD?
>userbenchmark
Managed to plug a 4 pin ATX cable the wrong way and partially fried my motherboard (using any M.2 slot causes a freeze and I have to resocket the RAM 5 times for XMP to work). Once I get it working and don't touch anything it's stable and passes every test, though, so am I good?
>>102395955Because you fuckers keep giving them ad revenue on your phone. Stop giving SEO scam sites your time thereby money.>>102395941It doesn't matter.
>>102395967how
>>102395962the site that keeps the wintel dream alive
I'm going to do itI'm going to buy an amd graphics card
>>102396190>>102396190>>102396190
>>102396189okay this is based
>>102396098Tight space and I have huge fingers so I had to rip the clip off the cable to get it in, didn't notice it was in the wrong position.
>>102396189Very based and value pilled
>>102391569That was bad at the time, but today you can, even in windows, just drop in the dxvk .dll and it will just werk. I'm not sure if that shows how bad AMD's dx11 driver is, or how good their vulkan driver is, because for me on nvidia, games that have a dx11/vulkan/dx12 option universally perform much better in dx11 than the latter two.
