Their slides show a mediocre gaming uplift but a good boost to production applications. If you were planning on building a high-end gaming system but were put off by the OOS 7800X3D and degrading RTL chips it will be worth considering. For productivity it's obviously a matter of time to break-even vs. now discounted older gens.

First time buyers tempted to consider the RX 7700/7800 XT by AMD’s army of Advanced Marketing scammers (youtube, reddit, twitter, forums etc.) should be aware that AMD have a history of releasing benchmark busting, heavily marketed, sub standard products. Although Nvidia’s 4070 only offers comparable performance, it has a broader feature set (RT/DLSS 3.0) and offers far better game compatibility (drivers). PC gamers looking to join AMD’s “2%” GPU club (Steam stats: 5000/6000/7000 series combined mkt share) need to work on their critical thinking skills: Influencers (posing as reviewers) are paid handsomely to scam users into buying inferior products. Experienced gamers know all too well that high average fps are worthless when they are accompanied with stutters, random crashes, excessive noise and a limited feature set.

>Do I want the igpu?
It's okay, the iGPU is good to have as a backup insurance but if the discount for the KF is more than say $10-15 and you already have/plan to have a dGPU I'd say don't worry about it.

bro i just realized the prebuilt pc i bought last year had all of it's chassis fans(RGB) cable daisychained into a SATA connector which ends up in PSU

and ofcourse the chassis fan not detected in bios, in mobo software, in openrgb etc...

but when i try unplugging all the fans, take the 4pin connector and plug into the motherboard chassis fan header
and it wouldn't work
fan won't spin and heats up instead, lights off, and no device detected in bios/software

what am i mistaking here
does rgb fan needs to go into RGB header?
if so is my fan RGB or ARGB?

i don't need the flashy RGB, i just want a way to turn the lights off and quiet down the fan

thanksbro

Haven't heard about it for DDR5. Maybe an esoteric OC thing. Anyway, the reason you don't want to run 2DPC on DDR5 is that it cuts a lot off your max speed. Signal integrity is hard to maintain at 3GHz+ and doing it with daisy-chained DIMMs just isn't feasible with today's boards and controllers. FWIW, you got the same effect on DDR4 but the lower clock speeds and generally mature controllers pushed that "cutoff" into the 4GT/s region which nobody but overclockers ran.

sounds like this affects you https://www.reddit.com/r/CYBERPOWERPC/comments/wyu078/cpgeneral_solved_finally_found_out_how_to_control/

tldr plug it into the rgb header wherever that is on your board
also google your issues first
>>
>>102761268
Conclusion:
Ensure you're using the correct connectors: The fan power connector should go into the chassis fan header, and the RGB connector should go into an RGB or ARGB header (only if you want RGB control).
If the fan doesn't spin when plugged into the motherboard fan header, it could be a proprietary fan from the prebuilt system, in which case you may need to replace the fans with standard PWM fans.
To disable RGB: Unplug the RGB connector, or use motherboard software if possible. If neither works, consider using a fan hub or controller for better fan speed management.
Let me know if you need help identifying connectors or any other details about your fans!

The node isn't the problem it's the memory bandwidth. You'll always be limited by the 64b bus and DDR speeds. Maybe fixable to some extent with cache but then ofc you can put that on a dGPU and we're back to square 1.

Right now for me the i3 14100f is only like 15$ more expensive than the 12100f, but from what I see the performance difference between the two is extremely minimal? Even their power consumption is the same I think. Which would I be better off going with?
>>
>>102761202
Zen5 is a decent upgrade. It costs less to fab than zen4 and improves performance by 2-100% depending on workload. It'd already close to 20% faster than zen4 if you discount all the windows bugs
>>
>>102761296
Is it really going to be on a new socket? I find it hard to believe after LGA 1700 getting both DDR4/5 variants compatible across Alder Lake, Raptor Lake, and the Refresh than they'll go back to a single-gen socket vs. AM5.
>>
>>102761334
For just $15 more, the i3-14100F is a better choice. While the performance difference is small now, the newer architecture gives it slightly better future-proofing and optimizations. It's a low-cost upgrade for a bit more longevity in your system.

The games run smooth and the screen is bigger but that's it.
It's a jump from 1080p 75hz to 1440p 240hz and I don't feel like it was worth the hassle. It doesn't even look any more impressive than it was.

dude i've mentioned nothing detects the chassis fan, not in bios, not in openrgb, not in asus mobo software

i have no manuals for the fan, it's a prebuilt pc, the shop people gave me no box no package and no manual for the fans
in fact i can't even find a product page for the fan's model it's probably a chinko knockoff so there's no way for me to tell if it's pwm or dc or argb or rgb or anything

Got a HAF Evo 700 from Cooler Master, case build is nice but holy fuck the instructions are dogshit bad. I have it all laid out according to the "instructions", the fans work and run and the RGB itself works but the stupid ARGB controller refuses to be detected by literally anything. Not openRGB, not signalRGB, not the mobo software, and certainly not the MasterPlus+ software it's supposed to work with.
the argb hub has:
>plug from fan hub
>SATA power adapter
>micro USB that connects to USB header on mobo on other end

Save up your money and try an OLED then. You are probably just feeling empty running up against the fundamental deficiencies of LCDs' poor contrast, colors, viewing angles, uniformity ,etc.

They are cheaper than they used to be, down to $550 starting:

>>
>>102761334
It's just a clock bump; not a new architecture. Still though an extra 400MHz peak boost isn't nothing and the increased stock power limit will let it hit that more frequently so for $15 it's not the worst idea.
With that said you should check pricing on the 12400(F) because if you're willing to pay $15 for 400MHz you might be willing to pay $30 for an extra 2 cores. IMO that'd have a bigger impact if you're doing something more demanding than web browsing and office.

The common wisdom I keep hearing is that if GPU core and hotspot temps are within 10-15C of each other at all times then the card doesn't need repasting, but is this really true? Wouldn't a uniform but ultimately too thin layer of thermal compound cause high temps but keep the hotspot delta low?

hi
dont have many plans so money isn't a barrier
have an lgc2 from building my Pc last year 4090 7600x with intentions to up the CPU when the good shit came out
Wondering if monitor wise, we have any indications of "better" stuff than the 480hz 2k monitor that just dropped, i think it really is diminishing returns at this point but i can afford it so why not.
so im asking is there any new screens i can wait a bit for to play my "esports" gay shit, and if i need to upgrade my CPU to make the monitor purchase worth while.
thanks guys

I suppose if you had a big sample you could make probability judgements like that. If you've got one card and it's either throttling, or has a big delta, then SOP* would be to reset to factory, visually inspect and clean, then repaste if the problem persists.

*Assuming an RMA is out of the question.

can components take out other compnents

1. Power Supply (PSU)
Risk: A faulty or poor-quality PSU is one of the most common culprits that can cause widespread damage. If the PSU delivers incorrect voltages or experiences a power surge, it can fry components like the motherboard, CPU, GPU, or storage drives.
Protection: High-quality PSUs from reputable brands often have built-in protections, such as overvoltage protection (OVP), overcurrent protection (OCP), and short-circuit protection (SCP) to prevent this from happening.
Solution: Always use a well-rated PSU from a trusted brand (e.g., Corsair, Seasonic, EVGA) and avoid low-cost, no-name power supplies.
2. Motherboard
Risk: A faulty motherboard could potentially cause damage to connected components like the CPU, RAM, or storage devices by delivering improper power or voltage.
Protection: Most motherboards have built-in protections to prevent short circuits or overheating, but a faulty

Ways to Protect Your Components:
Use a High-Quality PSU: Always opt for a reliable, well-rated PSU with built-in protections like OVP, OCP, and SCP.
Surge Protectors/UPS: Use a surge protector or uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to guard against power surges.
Proper Installation: Ensure all components are seated correctly, and cables are connected properly. Double-check your work during installation.
Test Components Before Full Assembly: As mentioned earlier, testing your components outside the case (like the motherboard, CPU, RAM, and PSU) can help prevent major issues later on.
Monitor Temperatures: Keep an eye on system temperatures to ensure your cooling solution is working effectively. Overheating can damage your CPU, GPU, and other components.
Conclusion:
While it’s uncommon for one component to take out another, it’s possible, especially with a faulty PSU or improper installation. Being cautious during installation and using quality parts significantly reduces the risk of widespread damage.
>>
>>102761757
>2. Static Electricity Precaution:
3. Install the Power Supply First:
Check the PSU First: Before connecting it to your components, test your PSU using a PSU tester or by doing the paperclip test (carefully!). This ensures it’s working correctly and avoids the risk of it damaging other parts.
Connect Cables Neatly: Route the power cables neatly and avoid bending or pinching them. Use the correct power connectors for your motherboard, CPU, and GPU.
4. Install CPU, RAM, and Cooler on the Motherboard:
Install Outside the Case: Before installing the motherboard in the case, install the CPU, CPU cooler, and RAM on the motherboard outside the case. This avoids the risk of bending pins or damaging the motherboard due to awkward installation angles inside the case.
Align and Fit Correctly: Ensure the CPU is aligned with the socket and locked in place without forcing it. Similarly, make sure the RAM sticks are fully seated in their slots (you should hear a click when they snap into place).
5. Test the Motherboard Before Full Assembly:
Do a Test Boot: Connect the PSU, CPU, RAM, and GPU (if required) to the motherboard and power it on before mounting everything in the case. You can use the motherboard's power pins or the PSU’s paperclip test to check if it powers up correctly.
Look for POST (Power-On Self Test), which is an indication that the system is functioning properly.

Get the 4K, those specs should last 3 years or so easy and worse case after than just lower some settings to High/Med is all I predict you'd need to do. You could also at that point run games with lossless integer scaling at 4x1080p Internal Rendering. The higher resolution is not the only benefit for OLED like it is with LCD, the higher PPI of the 32" model makes color fringing for these non-RGB-based displays finally all-but-gone on text/desktop while it's still a problem on the 1440p models.

HUBTim talks about this in his very first 4K OLED Monitor review here and has been consistent in pointing it out ever since:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qywLwR7KT9M&t=275s
Also look at the difference in clarity between the 1440p 27" & 4K 32" MSI models RTINGs tested here:
https://www.rtings.com/monitor/tools/compare/msi-mpg-321urx-qd-oled-vs-msi-mpg-271qrx-qd-oled/47132/47131#test_4264

The actual increase in the physical panel size from 27" to 32" also contributes to higher immersion.

Intel lowering the launch price of their newest client chip is an acceptance these products don't merit a higher MSRP.
This is like the RX 7800XT releasing at $500 because it's within 3% of the discounted 6800XT's performance.
>>
>>102762924
Yeah, especially with their e-waste cores and 500W power draw. Maybe you'll even get lucky and get a CPU that isn't already defective from manufacturing.
Not even shilling AMD, they're both absolute dogshit right now. Fucking desktop DIY stuff has been shit for years now.

That's not a good thing, only relevant to the very few consumers who upgrade CPUs that often.
The flaws in Meteor Lake & Arrow Lake's tile design is already addressed in Lunar Lake and will be in Panther Lake.
You want products with those tile fixes asap, not refreshes of an inferior chip design.

One of the most disappointing aspects of modern PC launches is that the performance is so lackluster that they can't offer a good value on launch over competition not just from rival companies but even previous iterations of their own offerings that are meant to be replaced. Arrow Lake looks like it's going to compete with Zen 5%, but also Zen 4, and Raptor Lake Refresh, AND Vanilla Raptor Lake, and also Discounted Alder Lake.

2 years, 2 companies, 4/5 generations of products between them and they ALL cluster within +/- 10% of each other in price and performance. Anyone that tells me competition is good for consumers needs to answer for themselves because it's been more than a decade since CPUs were this close together but the resulting value is not getting any better as a result (for ARL with new mobos that may be on a DOA Socket) or actively getting worse in the case of Zen 5.

I'm for reduced wattage though. My PC (12900K, water-cooled) is a goddamn space heater. I've been gaming a lot lately and the room it's in is consistently hotter than the rest of the house. If I can get improved performance AND dramatically improved performance per watt, well, Intel has my attention.

Things only seem like this because it seems like everyone following hardware is brainrotted retards that think the only metric to performance is 1080p gayming.

Instead of just accepting that you have hardware good enough for the time being you screech because your not given an excuse to consume.

Get a grip on yourself.

thats basically the trend for next gen. same performance if not 5-10% better but more power efficient. like rdna4 flagship is 4080 super but not guzzling so much power and at a price people can afford.

Except one card exists irl, the other's just your imagination.
You're betting AMD can design a more performant chip in both raster & RT on the same node as the 4080, and make it smaller to profit @ the 4070's price point.

Radeon wouldn't be in such a bad position if they had the competence to achieve this in the first place.
