>>102851085hey that matches my shower curtain!
>>102851085>MB vendors: 12VO is too expensive, think of the additional power regulators>also MB vendors:
>>102849595kek! that hurts the ears no freaking way i'd want that in my room or even in the garage. get the feeling i'll still hear it somehow. i'd rather just have the pc in a completely separate room thats kept refrigerated to <0 degrees farenheit with insulated wires leading out and back to my room that connect to the peripheral devices.
ugh i have to replace the cpu in my pc, what a hassle it is doing this stuff. has to be done but it's such a slow process since i'm paranoid>turn off pc>leave it there for a while>push and hold the power button for a while to make sure i clear as much electricity as possible>remove panel from the PC case>un-attach the cpu cooler, probably have to remove the attached fans as well or just disconnect them (which is probably more annoying to reconnect)>make sure i have a bunch of towels and cardboard around to prevent thermal paste from getting on the carpet>remove paste from both cooler and cpu>wait excessively just to make sure it's truly dry>place new cpu in slot>put thermal paste on cpu>reattach cpu cooler>reattach fans as neededwhat a slow, annoying, and delicate process
>>102851085>that pcwhat's with these people who make pc's like they're a fashion statement? i blame them for all the disgusting options in design nowadays. just give me a plain black PC! no windows, no rgb lights, no open top fan, no top mounted PSU!!!!!
>>102851085>>102851139>>102851293OMG i want one like that now to match my shower curtain.>the fuck is wrong with me
>>102851277You might want to warm up the CPU a bit by running Cinebench for 10 minutes or so to soften up the paste.Detaching the CPU cooler's heatsink from the IHS can be easier with this step.If the CPU doesn't have pins, twist the heatsink a bit before you attempt to pull it out.
>>102851277>>make sure i have a bunch of towels and cardboard around to prevent thermal paste from getting on the carpetwhat?my thermal paste turns into set cement
>>102851618not that anon, but my paste is always soft-ish and sticks to everything it touches after use
I added another fan to my PC and later opened it up again to check something. In the process I must have flipped the fan's RGB header around and now only green works. wtf.
>>102851390it's a regular cpu with pins. have to be careful so that i dont get my refund denied by intel telling me some bogus claim.>>102851618i made the mistake once of putting a cpu cooler down on the carpet. cpu came with its own cooler but i forgot the paste comes preapplied. it didn't seem to leave anything but it made me super paranoid and i cleaned that area hard, still paranoid and would not set my face down on that area of carpet nor any valuables. this was a few years ago as well.
>restart my pc>it for some reason takes extremely long to fucking boot>monitors dont want to turn on>wtf>plug it off from power>the same instant i get a realization it was probably memory training>verify it by checking on motherboard it that it doesnt past dram>reset bios (it was turning itself off)>everything werks now but i have to setup my bios again bros i hate technology so fukcing muchi fucking technology so fucking much bros i almost cried because i thought my pc broke
btw, those who missed out on the 7800X3D do not fret because AMD will be releasing the 9800X3D at $450 and the 7700X3D at $380
I now have to wait a little longer for lian li to release their wireless fans to compliment the new compact case just bought. I fee like after all that i'll be done buying parts for a few more years
What is the best/safest way to sell my 4090 after buying the 5090?
>>102852253If you're in America, idk. If you live in Europe just list it on Facebook or something
can i get some recommendations for the mobo?use case is gaming and i'd also like for it to have wifi and bluetooth and decent/good audio.
>>102852253ebay
>>102852191That's why you save your bios settings into a profile once your done setting it up
>>102852288for wifi get a dedicated Wifi card.
>>102852513got any recs for that then?
>>102852288ive got the livemixer one and its nice
>>102852288Since you're spending big bucks, get a msi mag x670e. They have the nicest bios. Or just wait till x870e, 9800x3d and 5080 to drop like a sensible person.
>>102852191Exhibit #98636287 for why AMD NEEDS to include some kind of on-screen message/progress bar for when it's doing RAM training and that reboots are normal part of the process. These protracted periods of black screens/boot cycling with no visual feedback gaslighting end-users into thinking their systems are bricked is unnecessary and frankly inexcusable by now.>>102852504>That's why you save your bios settings into a profile once your done setting it upI'll tell more new users to do this from now on.
>>102852221>7700X3D at $380Doubt. It'd cannibalize sales from the 9800X3D unless the 9800X3D has some secret sauce performance improvement that the non-X3D Zen 5 CPUs don't have

>>102852504indeed, even better if you can do it from within Windows
>notice system is running great but internal temps are creeping up at idle because the fans run so little>fix that with german autism software
>>102852950No that's dumbWhat's in the bios stays in the bios
>>102852815>Exhibit #98636287 for why AMD NEEDS to include some kind of on-screen message/progress bar for when it's doing RAM trainingand how are you supposed to do that with no RAM?
>>102852907There might be an insignificant price increase though
>>102853150he said MLIDs "leaked" numbers were totally fictional
>>102852191>memory trainingwhat is this anyways? i've heard of it before but how do i avoid it do this weird shit, like come on, i just want to plug and play but then you redditards who go>like bro just open up le bios and spends hundreds of hours undervolting it and overlocking it etc etc etc>+1 fpsKEK! Look I just buy the overclocked CPUs for the higher speed and stuff, I'm not wasting my time overclocking/undervolting this stuff for hundreds of hours just to find the "sweet spot" only for it get reverted by a windows update or something. These same losers go from hating intel to slurping it right back up because>le 13th/14th gen issue is officially fixed, stop spreading disinfo!!!the same losers who treated it like nothing because intel denied such issues, they really are an annoying batch of consoomers. got carried away kek. i wish tech was simple none of this stuff where i have to do lots of research just to make sure the pc parts i'm buying will work together or finding out this part may be a problem (not the os or isp causing it) and i have to buy something else or a workaround etc etc etc. JUST MAKE A FUNCTIONING PRODUCT!!!!!
>>102853179>MLID>totally fictionalNo, it can't be. I'm shocked, who could have predicted this!?
>>102853286I still laugh at his zen 5 performance predictions
>>102853098>dumbare you actually old enough to post here?>the convenience of being able to change BIOS settings from within Windows is sublime>don't all your motherboard manufacturers provide this?>kek
>>102852907I should've waited 1.5-2 more years before buying a new PC. What a mistake I made.>intel: screwed up with 13th/14th gen>intel: garbage gains for 14th gen>motherboard manufacturers: ethernet selection was questionable along with one having faulty design that would drop internet intermittently>motherboard manufacturers: better not have an ssd and gpu that both use PCIe 5.0>nvidia: meh tier gains from last gen while demanding a high price, could've just waited some more>amd: idk didn't research them much>windows os: oh you want some data mining>etc.I'm so tired bro's, can these losers just make a quality product for once? The faultiness of the hardware seems significantly higher than what I recall in the past. And before any of you say linux, I said quality product, I'm not going through all that hassle just to use an OS. 2 years and I could've gotten a 15th gen intel CPU that has proven itself problem free unlike 13th/14th gen that I've completely discarded as an option regardless of what they say and a GPU that might actually have worthwhile gains like GPU's of the past apparently had.
>>102853331Okay, I'll humor you as someone who used to work in software security for almost a decade.Being able to change your BIOS setting in the OS is beyond stupid. Why? Because a malicious program can easily brick your computer by changing a simple value in your BIOS. It's possible to do it TEMPORARILY ie. Intel XTU, but it is very limited in what it can do. You are fucking retarded if you think people actually want this.
how's this build
>>102853368whether they want it or not makes no difference in a corporate environ and thus, it exists. once you have it, you can tweak your stuff from windows all you want and never have to access the BIOS in a POST menu, ofc it requires elevation. the /lusr/ should not be a noob.here in /pcbg/ i figured all the /tweakanons/ would demand this from their manufacturers (with glowie themes and shit).Have you not seen this before, anon?
>Yep.. its gaymin time https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hmDTbL
>>102853456>here in /pcbg/ i figured all the /tweakanons/ would demand this from their manufacturersNTA but absolutely not, if only because i don't consider any of those solutions reliableyou CAN tune almost everything on ryzen through ryzen master (and it saves in the BIOS), but you don't know if it's going to randomly reset after a reinstall or apply some made up dangerous voltage (because AMD and mobo software is written by pajeets)booting into the BIOS takes 5 seconds
>>102853543>spend $1200>slower than the 9950X
>>102853333>2 years and I could've gotten a 15th gen intel CPU that has proven itself problem free unlike 13th/14th genYou're giving Intel way too much credit atm.There are plenty of reasons Arrow Lake can have teething issues.Maybe Metoer Lake laptop chip releases gave the engineers better exposure to the real issues.
If I tried to find a rock-bottom used 13/14th Gen CPU on Ebay and then immediately RMA'd it for a fresh undegraded chip to Intel do you think it'd go through?
>>102853587you wouldnt get it
>>10285333315th gen uses a lot of bleeding edge tech (similar to 12th gen and that had scheduling problems) so I'd be surprised if it's problem freeIt looks fine now only because it's not in the public's hands
>>102853641possible.. but the price might be a was since new chips are ~ $450
>>102853368>a malicious programkek'd at the "software security guy" worried that some /haxor/ will crap in his BIOS while the sysops scan his traffic for furry porn. the big boys have spent a lot of money on this and /consoomers/ don't know? i cannot fathom the great shithole that is 4chan not knowing. i say demand it from the vendors, they have already developed it for their professional boards so why can't they give you some of dat good shit and make it /glow/? >meanwhile in the datacenter the all-seeing eye filters the porn sites out of your traffic into an Excel file for ... operator review at home ...
Im gonna do it:https://www.youtube.com/shorts/6_euA0qnt3o
>>10285367012th gen was problem free if you disabled the E-cores and used DDR4so, the sensible choice, you even got AVX-512 if you were lucky
>>102853331Yeah that's fucking retarded. Situations like Ryzen master overwriting bios settings and staying there until you physically remove the CPU or even reflash the bios to reset it comes to mind. Even without these issues, you won't be able to access a lot of useful hardware based features like fan speed, RGB, all voltage rails and Loadline settings.
>>102853694Nah it permanently fucked up your windows install with stuttering if you had e-cores enabled then. You'd have to do a full windows install to get p-only working properly
>>102853624I said 2 years since maybe it'd give me time to see if there's any complaints I'd be inclined to believe it unlike redditors who discount it until the company admits it so.>>102853670Yeah it's why I'd wait at least a year. I don't trust them or amd for that matter though but I was likely going to need to buy something new sooner or later so I don't think I'd be able to stall out for too long if I was still in that situation.>>102853694How's 12th gen with Windows 11, DDR5, and enabled e-cores?
>>102853742>DDR5you won't be able to run it fast enough to outperform DDR4XMP above 5600-6000 simply won't work13th gen has an upgraded memory controller>enabled e-coresit's much better nowi think 12th gen even got some thread director updates backported from 13th gen
>>102853546>going to randomly reseti knew it! those bastards are shorting you because you are to them merely a /consoomer/, grist for their mill, the tosser in the three-way between you and their corporate tops. you should raise your own personal army of minions and storm their gates, demanding unified secure, stable, and above all, /glowie/ tools for your /overclocking/ pleasures.>takes 5 secondsnot for long if the early complaints about DDR5 have any merit. also not for me, i'm on a workstation board
/g/ents, how the fuck do I connect this front panel cord to my motherboard? Apparently this manufacturer combined all of the little front panel cords into this one cord. The issue is that the port on my mobo doesn't secure the cord when I can plug it in. On top of that, the cord has 4 wires going to it but 9 pinholes. Why?Motherboard is a B650 Aorus Elite AX and the case is a Lian Li LANCOOL 216 ATX Mid Tower.Any ideas or am I gonna have to buy some kind of adapter?
>>102853854sure looks like it would plug in to the side of the connector closest tot he battery on the board>but i'm not gonna RTFM for you, cordanon.
>>1028537706000cl30 is enough to perform all reasonable ddr4 xmp
>>102853854post pic what's on the other side of the wire
>>102853898on AMD, yes, that's the universal recommendation for a reasonAMD and intel's DDR5 implementations are so different that they should never be directly comparedon intel you need 7000+ DDR5 to outperform a $50 3600C18 DDR4 kit
How bad would a 5800X bottleneck a 7900 XTX? Not sure if upgrading to a 5800X3D or 5950X may be worth it.
>>102853883>the manualThese moon runes do not help at all.
>>102853918less than you thinkbut i'm sure you could find situations where it happens>5950Xwouldn't do anything for games
>>102853770Does this require some sort of bios update? Or is it as simple as Windows simply updating on its own?
If the difference between a 7600 and a 7600x is 40 usd is it actually worth the money?
>>102853940Thanks, I'll put it on the backburner then and maybe just pick one up if I find a good sale in the winter.From what I remember seeing a 5800X3D and 5950X are close to the same performance in most games, the X3D normally edging out a few frames. I think either would be a step up from the base 5800X, but like you said probably not as much as someone like me may initially think.
>>102853911The other end of the wire? It's the one on the far right here. Pic related is the back of the I/O panel.
>>102853921According to the manual shouldn't the cord have 9 wires going to it instead of 4? Did I get a defective case?
>>102853724>retardedhaving a shit bios on a shit /consoomer/ mainboard is no excuse for accepting shitty features that don't work and then posting like an impotent sperglord that "don werk on my /build/ mus be bad">like fan speedabsolute excrement. any goddamn thing the BIOS can do can be instrumented or made to be controllable with end user software, the vendors just don't give a shit about you /consoomers/
>>102853943all CPUs should have gotten the update with windows 11 22H2>>102853962>I think either would be a step up from the base 5800Xthe 5800X outperforms the 5950X in gaming
>>102853918X3D has massive performance boost in select few games with number crunching simulations.Do you need your postendgame megabase in Factorio or 500+ year empire in Stellaris to run faster?Look up benchmarks for your specific games and decide.Though at current price 5800x3d is not worth it anyway compared to 5700x3d.>>102853967Oh. Thought some retard at the factroy might have put in backwards, loose end in case pcb, but no, shit's fucked.
>>102853921you need to look at the motherboard manual now, cableanon, and see if one corner of the socket on the motherboard matches up to the I/O ports>only then can you rise towards being all-knowing about this particular connection point
I think my 10 year old cooler master mouse is finally dying, does anyone want to shill me a replacement? Apparently I have large hands

>>102854046i fell you my last remaining old-school m705 has a hole in it from where my thumb rests on the side
>>102854027>>102854054This is literally all the "manual" says about the front panel connectors.It's been a while since I last built a PC but holy fuck have manufacturers really gotten lazy in the manual department.
>>102852823It does, i don't think there is a penalty for thermal dissipation on the zen 5 x3d looking at the die shots.
>>102854054>only two m.2 slots whats it like being poor?

>>102853854> 4 wires going to it but 9 pinholes. Why?Your shit only has power and reset. Just plug it in and see if it works. If so hot glue it in I guess.
>>102854130read the manual, not "manual"the 41 page long book
>>102854164kek>not even with a rented dick
>>102854146whats it like being blind?
Upon closer inspection it appears my front panel cable has the wrong layout. Wires 6 and 8 are for the reset button and 5 and 7 are for the power button.Meanwhile on the mobo these ports are reversed (pic related).Do I have to buy some jumpers or can I manually switch the wires on this connector? Never ran into this issue before, weird shit.
>>102854247nigga just HAD to cut it off
>>1028542683 is just a poor as 2 4 is the BARE MINIMUM 10 is ideal
>>102854306>a screenshot of your Passmark system drawing for us
>>102854164why not?
>>102854269Looks like cable and motherboard layouts are mirrored so case manual pins 5-7 are motherboard manual pins 6-8 and vice versa. if the plugged up pin is the motherboard pin 10 then the buttons will work.

The memory chips are Samsung K4ZAF325BC-SC20, these are 20 Gbps-rated GDDR6 memory chips.

>been wanting to build a new PC for Christmas but got the whole build planned out in February>stopped paying attention to PC parts, forgot a lot of the details>been looking for a 7800X3D at MSRP>sold out everywhere, getting scalped like mad>whatever>JustWaitâ„¢ >have a job site in a town over an hour away>there's a Best Buy right across the street>go there during lunch break>no 7800X3D>plenty of 7950X, 7950X3D, and 7700X all on the shelf>didn't buy because I forgot why I wanted/needed the 7800X3D and didn't want to blunder out of ignorancewith all this said, what's the 7800X3D got that the others don't? Is it just good value per dollar or whatever? I get that the higher tier CPU you get the more you pay like starting at running PC, then up to gaming, then up to work station. So other than price, what's the difference? Power draw maybe? I don't really know a lot about how a CPU operates, I just know the 7800X3D has been the one to buy for a couple years now.
>>1028550147800xd has a terrible price/perf in gaming and even worse price/perf in general task. It's being shilled so you can buy them from scalpers at a markup
>>102855048but even before it was getting scalped people were touting it as the best CPU on the market for gaming, on here, YouTube, etc etc when I was actively looking at parts earlier this year. What changed? Other than Intel users getting fucked and swapping over, which I guess would create a supply/demand issue for a little while. Would I be better off grabbing that 7950 or the 3D variant at MSRP on the shelf? Or would it be better to wait until the 9000 series drops and see what happens? I don't have the money to buy all the parts right now yet anyways so I'm not chomping at the bit, but I would hate to miss out on MSRP while it's right in front of me.
>>102855122It is the best. But it's overpriced. You should definitely wait and see 9800x3d in 2 weeks.
>>102854968you don't need a warranty for a CPU.
>>102855048only when compared to the 7600/7700, its still the best gaming chip on the market (outperforming $600 cpus) but people need to calm down because its out of stock and not worth buying above MSRP especially when the 9800X3D is going to be out soon.
>>1028550147700X=7800X3D except in 170fps+ scenarios.Here is what nobody ells you about actual CPU performance.You want 1. decent IPC for laoding screens and pre load assets streaming 2. decent multicore for less stutterI'm on 7700x since launch, I didn't ahve any issues with UE engine games everyone whines about. FPS is a shit metric for a CPU and it's really difficult to measure overall "true" gaming performance since it varies and depends on many factors.
i5-12600k vs 8600G for normies with heavy office workload and some occasional photo and video editing>i5-12600kplanned to go 12400, or 12500 for extra clocks, but nowadays 12600k is same priced just comes without heatsink so why not go for that extra clocks and extra e-cores>8600Gsame price, much MUCH more igpu performance and seems cpu performance is the sameI know the answer is - does not really matter both will workbut still which would you pick and why?
>>102855356AMD because it's colder compared to 12600k.

My gaming performance absolutely tanked recently and I'm not sure what caused it. I booted up CP2077 and ran the benchmark, I was getting 90fps average before, now I'm at like 13fps. Task manager says GPU useage is at 2%, should be at around 100%.I used windows update and downloaded a couple of other pieces of software recently. Not sure how to go about remedying this other than a fresh install of windows, any ideas where to start? I already downloaded the latest GPU drivers.
>>102855638If you're too retarded to diagnose it properly you can do an in-place wangblows upgrade. It's the same as reinstalling but you don't lose anything.
>>102855638vram usage normal in these tests?
>>102853946They're the same CPU It's only worth paying for more cores or vcache, not the out of the box clockspeed unless you're already considering the highest end part like 14900k vs 14900ks

>>102855372>>102855854I assume that anon means 8600G because AM5 has a lot longer of a future and also because the igpu is a lot stronger and it runs cooler.the main benefit of the 12600K is that it can be cheaper simply because of DDR4 support.
https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-ceo-presents-panther-lake-cpu-sample-the-first-product-with-xe3-gpu-architectureIntel is releasing next-gen Xe3 Celestial iGPU next year and will take the iGPU performance crown, Intel outinnovating inferior competitorhttps://videocardz.com/newz/amd-apus-rumored-to-use-rdna3-gpu-architecture-until-at-least-2027
i got the AOC 25G3ZM monitor, it's generally very good, 240hz freesync, 3000+ to 1 contrast ratio, excellent panel uniformity, viewing angles of this "wide VA" are about as good as IPS considering IPS glow, pic related gamma is pretty much perfect with user color temperature set to 50-50-50 and the "gamma 3" setting (fuck the lagom gamma pic which seems to be broken and very limited anyway compared to pic related full spectrum ramp), ghosting is not an issue with the medium overdrive setting if you're not doing esports, the panel is wide gamut but you can set color temperature control to disabled in AMD adrenalin and it will emulate sRGBbut what the fuck, reviewers said nothing about low minimum brightness, the black levels are satisfactory for watching movies but not as good as the contrast ratio implied if you could scale down the brightness, if you view bright content it can be too bright in a dimly lit room (dark mode applications are ok), fuck everyone for still allowing these basic issues in 2024
>>102856088>and will take the iGPU performance crownnot so fast, baka.https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-strix-halo-zen5-apu-leak-shows-307mm%C2%B2-die-with-rdna3-5-graphics-compared-to-rtx-4070-80w
i got the ergosolid/northbayou H100 monitor arm, it's so much nicer than a normal monitor stand, you can move it around a lot easily with the gas spring mechanism and you have essentially free use of the whole desk area below your monitor, and it's really sturdy
>>102856219k
>>102856230cope, it wasn't even expensive in my country plus i had a $10 promo voucher, in general it is amazing how much you can benefit your life with technology if you don't get brain rotted and stuck with your old shit forever, even a dell/NEC IPS monitor from 10-15 years ago is no good
>>102856255>>102856219I always recommend gas spring-based arms for their set-and-forget ergonomic customizability. Glad you like it.
So after the scary experience with the failed AIO, I sent it back to Arctic and it turns out the unit sat in a warehouse at the seller for 3 years before I bought it, and the gasket gunked up the loop and broke the pump.They'll offer me a nearly full refund atleast. They also offered to send a brand new unit but I'll be air cooling for a while now for sure.
>>102856088>rumors about a potential panther lake desktop debutgood, people are such faggots for talking about strix halo like it will strictly be for laptops like they couldn't make something similar for desktops a year or two down the line, desktop APUs would start to get more popular if they could just do another gen or two of advancements from 8000G series especially if they can run higher DDR5 speeds officially with next gen motherboards
>>102856219I might consider getting something like this, if it weren't for the fact my 'desk' is not a desk but is actually a space invaders cocktail table(the arcade machine kind). why did I get an arcade machine only to use it as a desk? it was only $100 at a local garage sale and I didn't have much open room at home. >in general it is amazing how much you can benefit your life with technology if you don't get brain rotted and stuck with your old shit forever, even a dell/NEC IPS monitor from 10-15 years ago is no goodI'll stick with my 1080p ips for as long as it stays working and there's no cheaper alternative. I'm used to the thing, anyway
>>102856316i only paid 110 euros for the AOC 25G3ZM although it seems rare to find such deals
so basically, one of my issues with my NEC monitor was that it made an annoying PWM humming noise below 20% brightness, my AOC is silent but it's bright, so the chink fucks can claim having a flicker free design but it's arguably worse in that you don't even have the option of reducing the brightness further with PWM
>>102851085i am forcer to used wifishould i get a mobo with wifi or is a pcie card good enoughneeds free drivers on linux
>>102856278You're getting the refund and a new cooler? >Sitting unused and gunked upYeah that happens. Aios that are used regularly are far more reliable than ones that haven't been used for a while

>>102856430Aren't the new ones not out yet?
>>102856415Oh, no, it was an option between the two, I asked for a refund (80% due to this being the second year of usage), I have a thermalright PA140 now and also bought some case fans into the place where the AIO was before, so I have no use for a new cooler right now. I'll take a break from aios for a while, I'll probably get a freezer 3 if I ever want another one.
>>1028564439800x3d is supposedly releasing on 7 November

>>1028564308 cores is not enough for me and the 16-core AMDs still have a freq CCD that does care about memory tuning.Unless they unfuck the degraded clocks and put V-cache on both CCDs for the 9999X3D or whatever.

Will the Nvidia 50 series have some new tech not available for the 40 series? Really want to go for a GPU right now given how bad the announced specs are.
>>102856725Leaks are not announcements. And yes, obviously it will. Their features are the main selling point. Don't be stupid and wait.
>>102856725DisplayPort 2.1a UHBR20 80GbpsIf you buy Ada DisplayPort 1.4a you're retarded
>>102856445oh yeah thats still great, yeah the Arctic IIs had a recall at the start of their life and I guess the vendor didn't send it back for the new gasket.
>>102856795It might have been that, yeah. Strange because mine had the QC Passed sticker, and apparently that means that the gasket's been replaced already. I guess not being used for 3 years has degraded it even after replacing.
Is there not going to be a b850 chipset for amd? Is everyone just going to be using the x870? Or are people still buying the old ones?
>>102856953there is, its the replacement for the B650Ewhere AMD went dumb is the B840 which is the replacement for the A620
So I have these "HXT" , "VGD" and "ZXWY" cables on the small board behind my case that I have no idea where to putEverything else has been connected alreadyI thinkt the HXT are supposed to be for some leds?

What are the downsides of AM5, Zen 4 and Zen 5
>>102857225>AM5DDR5 is more expensive than DDR4 but its actually not too bad considering the historical price of DDR4>Zen 4no downsides really, it has dropped in price since launch and the gaming performance is good.>Zen 5its more expensive than Zen 4 after two years of that being on the market and gaming performance only has a couple percent uplift.right now the 9950X is the best multi threaded CPU available for consumers.
I have a 4070s and ryzen 7600x.Should I go for 1440p monitor? Redpill me on 1440 please. I play a variety of games, from triple AAA to competitive games.Can I live fine with 1080p?
two questionswhat is the actual performance difference between 6000CL30 and 6400CL32 assuming I can get both working on Zen 4?is replacing my 1080/60 monitor with a 4k60 worth it?
>>102857315get a 3440x1440 monitor and never look back, your future self will thank you
>looking through the 9000 seriesholy fuck this is such a depressing "improvement" compared to the much cheaper 7000 series. Like this 7700 (none x) vs 9700x is just insanely bad uplift for a massive price increase (at current market rates). What the fuck is amd smoking (also lmao 51 benchmarks)
>>102857335they perform the same, and go for a 144hz monitor
>>102857351>unironically using userbenchmarki mean the rest of your post is correct but don't use that site

>>102857367I use Cpu-monkey for CPUs and the techpowerup GPU database for GPUs.
>>102857222should have got a 7600
>>102857285>only has a couple percent upliftIsn't it a Windows problem and with Linux they perform like 20% better?
>>102851315One time I thought it would be funny to find a pink Hello Kitty themed netbook if one existed and load it up with hacker tools (read: install Backtrack.) Actually saw a machine on Craigslist with a pink & black tartan cover that would've fit the bill (just slap a HK sticker on it.) But it was the broke student days, so I didn't.Still kind of want to do it.
>>102857458yes and no, the huge uplifts in Linux are because their scheduler is better for the multi threaded applications that can take advantage of it but the gaming uplift isn't much better than windows.AMD did a huge redesign for Zen 5 that widened everything but the infinity fabric is the same as Zen 4, which means it has the same bottleneck that Zen 4 had for gaming. So the thinking is that X3D is going to be impressive.
>>102857427>I bought this one because the last one stopped working completelydid it have similar behaviour?Cause now there's chances the GPU was actually fine and it was a mobo/monitor/psu issue
>>102857342Why though

>>102857652Sorry anon but it's time to try different monitor/PSU/moboTry a different slot in mobo first even if it's not ideal speeds for GPU just to test
>Adamantine was cancelledfor fucks sake Intel
>>102857367Geekbench (useful since you can usually find different memory configs in the results), Passmark, reviews for usecase specific stuff, any opinion posted to youtube is automatically discarded.Also Userbenchmark is run by totally deranged shills and even Intel groupies ban them from their spaces.
I upgraded from a mobo that only supports PCIe3 and kept my RX 6600 so I guess it's PCIe4 now. I get better scores in benchmarks but lower framerate, about 105fps vs 120fps doing superposition in medium settings. I noticed there's no screen tearing now, maybe that has to do with it?
The 7900xt seems like a good value now
Day 560 of waiting for next-gen GPUs.
>>102857351Zen 5 has amazing IPC uplift when paired with upgraded I/O die and proper memory subsystem on Epycs. AMD just doesn't give a shit about goysumer market ever since tapping into that datacenter gold mine, all the effort goes into ousting intel from the server marketshare and getting the most out of the AI boom feeding frenzy.
>>102857979Yeah pretty good value
>>102858013Oh and Intel is doing the same thing for the opposite reason, they're in panic mode and triaging away every non-essential department.Which is why Barrow Lake is such a nothingburger, and the only exciting part of it is Skymont, which is Intel's desperate bid to catch up to Epyc with Clearwater Forest in the hyperscaler market and retake the lost market share.
>>102858013so basically, wait for the 10000 series where they apply an improved I/O die to the 9000 series and call it an entirely new cpu series.
>>102857759intel overpromises and underdelivers constantly
>>102858092Hopefully, yes, also the Zen5c 16-core CCDs might trickle down to desktop eventually so we might get AMD's equivalent of big.little in the next gen with mixed big core CCD and compact core CCDs.
>>102858141>big.shittle on desktopthat is a horrible idea
>>102858189I think it's a great idea in principle. Intel's abortion of a thread director doesn't make the concept bad. I guess we'll see if they managed to properly unfuck it in Arrow Lake.
>>102852368eBay sides with the buyers too much. I wouldn't trust it.
>>102858253Unless you document every step of the way from packing to shipping. Even then, if the buyer frauds you and sends you back a fake or altered GPU eBay will tell you to fuck off and file a police report.
Just heard about the most recent leak that amd lied about the leak about rdna being slated for Q1 release when its actually planned for a Nov release to throw Nvidia off guard.
>>102858092well its not just a new IOD but also its becoming an SoC in addition to the Zen6 arch uplifts.I imagine it will look like how they laid out Strix Halo but with a much smaller IOD.
>>102858322its been deboonked and rdna4 is still launching next year
>>102858322>AMD liedHave they ever not?
Anons, my gpu temps goes around 63-67 on average which is very good afaik. But a friend started talking about GPU hotspot temps. I checked my and it was around 73-75 average. Is that good? Should I be worried or even care?
7800X3D or wait for the 9800X3D? The 7800X3D's price skyrocketed to €500 in my country.
>>102858520>wait for the chip that will launch in a week at the same MSRP as its predecessor or buy its predecessor at scalped prices well above MSRP
>>102858508if your GPU is under 80°C it's too coldif it's 80-95°C it's fineif it's over that, it's bad
>>102858541Ok thats a load of my shoulder , thanks anon I thought I had to reapply thermal paste or something to fix it
>>102858565yeah "safe" temperatures are different for different parts, for example NVMe drives can't hold up to nearly the same temperatures and those temperatures would likely already be too high for one.But for most parts, by default you'll have thermal throttling, so while you'll lose some performance ,you shouldn't worry about your part being damaged unless you did something horribly wrong (like not install a cpu cooler or use a gpu where the fans don't spin) unless you turn off that thermal throttling yourselfParts try to keep themselves alive, as you might have expected
>>102858531>same MSRP
>>102858531>at the same MSRPI hope so.
How do I de-transition my RGBT pc? The RAM has RGBT, the cooler's fan has RGBT, the case fan is RGBT. I'm sure, I can replace the case fan. Can I replace the RGB fans of deepcool AG620 with Acrtic P12? Will this cause issues? What can I do about the RGB RAM?
>>102858848If you can see your ram you're already transitioning As for the fans, isn't the RGB separate? Just don't plug it in

an honest question, why do you people buy new hardware every year/ two? I bought a r5 1600x in 2018 and i still use it and i will use it for years to come. Before that I used amd phenom II X3 710, with asus mobo that unlocked 4th core and the reason i got a new one is because the motherboard died and was really hard to find another.Do you do it for thrill because i doubt any of you do anything meaningful on those systems, just play games that are just shit these days.

>>102859275You waited for so long, sure you can wait one more year without putting your pickle inside a woman to obtain magical power.
>>102859344>Before that I used amd phenom II X3 710>2009 processor sheeh you used that for a long time
>>102859275keep your virginity and become a grand wizard
>>102859386>>102859364No. I've been waiting for unvaxxed grills. And the only unvaxed qt that I know called me good looking yesterday. Hopefully I don't fumble this one.
>>102857427>>102857222So, I bought a new cable, and attached the pc to the home TV.Nothing, same issue, it doesn't detect anythingCould it be the motherboard? Or the RAM? Or the processor?I am genuinely desperateThere are no good repair shops in my vicinity
>>102859344Bro trust me, the upgrade from my 1600 to 5600x was absurd.Legitimately just buy a 5700x3d off Ali for 135 bucks and you're set for another like 6 years CPU wise>>102859360What frame rate is cap out?With or without dlss/framegen?Do you want max settings or just medium?>>102859419Did you try different pcie slot? It could be any part but I think most likely are psu mobo CPU. Unplug all your PSU cables on both ends and then plug them back in and try.If no work and you have other PSU cables, especially for GPU, try swapping them and try.If no work, switch pcie port for GPU and tryIf no work, fuck with a single ram stick in every slot, try both sticks (unlikely to be issue imo)If no work, take CPU out, inspect, if no flaws reseat and try.If no work I would honestly just buy a new PSU if you can't borrow shit off a friend or go to a repair store.Sometimes PSUs just die randomlyYou're in suffering territory not much to do
Is arrow lake done on a TSMC process?What happened to Intel 5nm or 20A or whatever it was called?
>>102859513>What happened to Intel 5nm or 20A or whatever it was called?Friendship ended with shintel fab.
>>102856111ok i dankened the gamma a bit with windows display calibration tool, while keeping the monitor in "gamma 3" mode the ramps switch smoothly between RGB and CMY tint, right in between where the ramps are grey is the sweetspot and makes bright content a bit more tolerable. "shadow control" in the game settings allow to make everything including the whites darker but at the expense of crushed blacks...
>>102859513only the base tile uses rebranded intel 22nm. the soc, compute and gpu tiles are tsmc built
>>102859413Weak.
>>102859344If I had the feature to sell an older am4 chip and get a 5950x, I'd do it. If I could get a better gpu and sell the old one, I would. These days, you can probably get a used 5950x haha. Its a cheap upgrade. I say this while using a 2018 stinkpad and before that I was using a x230 from 2013.
>>102859565Since I'm a virgin, I could use some advice.
>>102859578virgins are not people and giving them dating advice is basically complicity in rape
>>102859472like 144 fps high settings (not ultra)with DLSS Q maybe? no frame gen
>>102859540ok i lowered contrast in AMD adrenalin and then adjusted gamma with the windows tool to make the bars neutral, gets darker whites without black crush
how much trouble is tardwrangling a 7950X3D (on Windows)?
>>102859626banding could be better but oh well...
Nvmes are fucking complicated man. Dealt with so many issues with them compared to SATA.>They require a heatsink>Even if you use a heatsink they can still overheat from the size difference of the onboard chips>They need firmware updates>Using certain Windows versions causes Nvme issues>There's hidden Nvme driver updates to get their max performance and features>Having the wrong BIOS config makes the nvme run at full power at all times making it idle at 70C>Faulty power management on certain Nvme controllers can make them go to sleep and never wake up until you fully power cycle them>Reviewers get paid and free products to gloat how fast they all are in benchmarks but not how god awful they are to use in reality
>>102859673they don't require a heatsink unless they come with a heatsink
>>102859673you forgot the motherboard PCIe lane headaches
>>102859698PS5 manual says any SSD you put in it must have a heatsink even if it doesn't include one.
>>102859728that is incorrect
$1000>Threadripper 3970X>mobo>64GB RAMthoughts?
>>102859767no, but why would you want it?
>>1028596184070ti Super should definitely cover you in all but the most demanding games4070 super (non ti) might also be worth consideration. You might need to run some games at like medium or settle for like 110-120fps instead but for most games it should still handle high'ish settings 140fps.Obviously as devs stop caring about performance more & more, in a few years, 4070 ti super will hold up better than the normal 4070 super, just thought I'd mention that I think 4070 super for now should serve you fine
>>102859728PS5 has shit thermals and retarded (underage) users so I wouldn't be surprised if they put it there to avoid complaints from retards sticking chinesium SSDs in it and expecting no temperature issues.
>New GPU is Out for Delivery I'M SO DAMN EXCITED
>>102859767You DON'T have a use case for a threadripper.
>>102859767https://pcpartpicker.com/list/wf9pxHa NEW 9950X, with motherboard and 64gb of ram is $1000 and performs the same in multicore but has superior gaming performance.idk why you would

>>102859815which card
>>1028597677950x + x870 pro rs + 64 gigs kingston cl30 ram. All this for the same price. Why would you pick threadripper again? Also, you'd use less power.
