Anyone with a miniLED VA that has local dimming for SDR? How is it? Do they really lag in kicking in the dimming? I really want high contrast but OLEDs seem like a waste right now, 10k hours for $1k shekels is too expensive.

>>102908491
furmark places a maximum non scientific, as in, non custom mathematical kernel load on the processor and brainless nocoders have been saying for years that it sucks because it works, and reveals that nvidia primarily ships garbage GPUs which are unstable under maximum load yet stable under graphical load. so unstable bitcoin mining and doing ai or scientific loads but stable in skyrim
that's it, its a very useful tool and overclockers who buy reference budget designs find out that their garbage is garbage by using it get mad because they want to overclock their barely functional at 2.1ghz GPU to 2.2ghz and find out that it won't. its also helpful in finding out if the card is in a suitable ambient environment or that the heatsink, thermal interface, and so on are capable of keeping temperatures low and thermal throttling away. the only thing it doesn't do is put a kernel load down, which we may see soon and that hopefully standardized interfaces between custom loaded mathematical and memory managing kernels because of ai make that happen soon. as it is right now they were a mess and that's majorly why software hasn't come out that would do that as a stress test, not that overclockers would enjoy knowing that their garbage is already shit from the factory design, but what can you do.

As long as you run let the panel run it's automatic compensation cycles it should be good for 3-4 years, and if you reserve it for content consumption (video, comics, and games) and keep your current display as a secondary monitor for web browsing/productivity it should last 7-10 years easy.

how do you oled owners put up with the panels auto-dimming when theres too much whitespace shown?
i tried using my friends c1 for a weekend and it was annoying as hell. he said you get used to it but i doubt ill ever stop noticing it dimming my entire screen just because i opened a new tab
apparently its even worse by default because he bought some service remote that disables some other shit that auto-dims even more often?
it does look good for movies where that brightness quirk isnt such a big deal, ill give it that

Auto-dimming was a problem specific to using OLED TVs as monitors and first-gen OLED monitors. Now modern OLED monitors come with a True Black 400 mode alongside a 1000nit peak mode that doesn't get eye-searing bright, but doesn't dim regardless of white window size either.

Looks solid. Ideally you'd want a bit more CPU but the 7800X3D is scalped right now and Intels are either degrading or nerfed. One minor change I'd make would be to get 6000-30-36-36 RAM. Has a few advantages that I'll go into if you like. Also your PSU is good but slightly suboptimal - $90 should get you a strong 750W unit.

Just what the fuck is the point?

Between this and aquarium style cases I don't understand modern builds anymore. They seem to be spending so much money re-engineering the wheel for little to show for it and a loss of features/support. Why orient the GPU with it's fans choked right up against the side panel wall (and require an extra riser on the motherboard to install it)? Why bother with 9-11 god damn fans, just run the system open bench on the cardboard box the mobo came in at that point (you're never getting sub-ambient) then take a data vac/leaf blower to it once a month. My Define R4 was $140 10 years ago, has noise insulated panels thick enough to be used as makeshift riot shields, 3x Stock Fans that are still working, and vibration-resistant cage mounts for 8 drives + 2 ODD spaces.

These new breed of cases seem more designed for reviewers to have something to talk about and tinker with than for consumers to actually buy and use.

You're not doing anything fancy so just put in the specs you want and sort by lowest. It's currently a Silicon Power Value kit which has a good low profile and unassuming design. RAM is a commodity so the best price will vary by the day - if it happens to be something with a taller heatsink you'll need to check compatibility with your cooler.

Having more power phases directly increases your chance of something bad happening. But high quality power stages used on highend motherboards can help save your hardware by shutting off power when there is a short which makes the board salvageable if you remove the dead component

At that capacity I'd say your options are
A) Whatever basic Elements/Portable/Partner/etc. drive is on sale. Mystery meat but dirt cheap.
B) If you want something known, get a couple of Red+ or other confirmed CMR drives and some enclosures. 3.5" models need external power.
C) With $200 you could go SSD. More durable, faster, and portable but needs to be powered on a few times a year (tbf HDDs need this as well just less frequently).

>Not sure if I need RAID?
You can't realistically use RAID with external drives so don't worry about it.

>>102909997
>Would buying a couple of (A)s for redundancy a good idea?
I thought that was your original plan, no? If you don't want redundancy then just buy a single 4TB model (either A or B route).
If you want to go "full data integrity" then you should have legitimately redundant backups - basically a NAS with RAID. That's not realistic at $200 unless you have an old rig lying around. If you do, or you can scrounge one, then get a pair of Red+ or IronWolf 4TB and mirror them.

>I am looking for reliability
Enterprise drives might be technically more reliable but there are a couple of problems. #1 is that you're only buying two so 0.5% differences in AFR aren't going to show up - you don't have enough coverage for the data to be meaningful. #2 is that enterprise drives at this capacity are going to be pretty old so you'll see a lot of "refurbished" or NOS.

>>102910068

>>102909997
>Any significant difference between consumer and enterprise ones? I am looking for reliability (use case is backup)
No, other than SMR (shingled) vs CMR (conventional) both types of which are present in Enterprise & Non-Enterprise Drives. In theory, shingled drives are cheaper but in the real world are basically the same $/TB and carry performance penalties of 20% in sequential read/writes:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=rC0UDtCiYgI
Otherwise WD & Seagate are NOT spending millions of dollars running separate factories to assemble different lines of special drives for different customers. It's all the same spinning discs inside just with different certifications most of which don't matter to end users. For reliability sake in theory if you pick a drive that meets your capacity needs using the least # of platters (and therefore smallest number of read ahead motors and actuators) you'll have the longest lifespan but again that's theory and you're still at the mercy of the Law of Large Numbers. See the database for specs here:

More RAM only helps if you're actually going to run something that uses it. You need enough RAM for your use case. If you don't have enough, performance falls off a cliff or shit begins crashing outright, but more than you need won't really do anything for speed.

I meant that is buying a cheap drive a good idea?
But judging from comments looks like (A) is an acceptable option. If the drives are cheap I may buy 3 instead of 2.

>>102910080
Thanks anon! The reliability stats look useful.
>>
>>102910089
That's not strictly true, e.g. on windows having more RAM means more headroom for the page cache which translates directly into a more responsive applications, even though the RAM occupied by the page cache is not listed in taskman.

>>102910136
>judging from comments looks like (A) is an acceptable option
Yeah it's fine. This is just a backup so if it dies you still have your originals. Having a standard backup like this protects you from 1 drive failure at any time. Having a proper NAS setup would protect you from 2 or more which is obviously much less likely.

>The reliability stats look useful
They're not that useful to you. The smallest drive Backblaze runs is like 12TB so their reports don't really apply to your purchase. You can make a bit of inference if you know what you're doing but it's nowhere near a sure thing.

Yeah this would be with the 980Ti, basically figuring out in my head the new costs and whether it'd be worth it as with a used £40 GTX 970 I was told £190-220, with a GTX 980ti for £85 to £250-300 is iffy in my head cost ratio wise, but it might be still worth doing.
>>
>>102910510
I think you'd be better getting a 1070 for 100 from like CEX or ebay or some shit. 8GB of VRAM is necessary and would definitely push it up to the 300 mark for an extra ~15
>>
>>102910519
Think I'll go for it, it'll be something like £48-52 in costs so far, going to £152 for £300 doesn't seem too bad. Just afraid of it becoming a money hole I don't end up selling.

Ngl, I kinda regret buying a 1080p display instead of a 2160p display in the current year even if it'd be 1600ish PLN instead of 900ish.

What are some 2160p displays that have high refresh rates and low latency whilst also being suitable for work like graphic design/color grading? HDR and good colors/contrast ratio and backlight bleed are important to me.

Hard to rate "current" setups since who knows when you bought it, so I'll just rate it as if it's a new build you're planning

Personally, I'd get two different monitors, one 1440p high refresh rate & one 4k 60hz (or higher ofc) so you can have one for gaming and one for media or random shit off to the side.
That CPU is ass, it's bottlenecking you pretty bad, even at 1440p
Those speakers don't seem very popular

If you ARE going last gen (I'd suggest just going current gen), I don't know if that ram is worth the extra bucks, performance increase is likely minimal over 3200 CL16

This is my current setup. I was mainly going for 1440p. 4K monitors are too expensive.


I understand about the CPU. I got it as a hand-me-down for free from a friend. I'll probably buy a new one on Black Friday.

Speakers have pretty high Amazon reviews and sound pretty good to me.

My storage setup is from 2019, don't really have any qualms about it from since then. If I get a SATA SSD along with my HDD and m.2 I think I'll be set for the next couple years when I plan to upgrade my motherboard.

>>102910890
They had more than enough thermal headroom from the node shrink and chose to use it to maintain AM4 cooler compatibility.

They needed to elongate the die for the new architecture and didn't want to increase the price of the ILM.

Hope that helps guys.

It's not even a sure thing that the 5800X would bottleneck at 1440p. It's plausible that one could force a CPU bind in a lot of games by lowering settings but it's not realistic. Why buy an $800 video card to play at medium?
Anyway, if you're on AM4 the 5700X3D makes the most sense for an upgrade. Again you could force it to bottleneck but it'll give you more headroom for FPS if you should choose to run low settings. Plus better low% which is always nice.

Be wary of sponsored reviews with cherry picked games that showcase the wins, ignore frame drops and gloss over the losses. Also watch out for AMD’s army of Neanderthal social media accounts on reddit, forums and youtube, they will be singing their own praises as usual. AMD continue to develop “Advanced Marketing” relationships with select youtubers with the obvious aim of compensating for second tier products with first tier marketing. PC gamers considering a 7000X3D CPU need to work on their critical thinking skills: Influencers are paid handsomely to promote overpriced niche products (X3D, EPYC, Threadripper etc.). Rational gamers have little reason to look further than the $300 13600K which offers comparable real-world gaming and better desktop performance at a fraction of the price. Workstation users (and RTX 4080+ gamers) may find value in higher core CPUs such as the 16-core $400 13700K. Despite offering better performance at lower prices, as long as Intel continues to sample and sponsor marketers that are mostly funded by AMD, they will struggle to win market share.

I swear, X3D cpus are so good, shills focus on trying to knock them down and completely forget cheaper AMD cpus also exist.
Only intel cpus worth buying are MAYBE workstation ones (I don't know about that space) or super budget builds where you get older gen cpus like 12100f/12400f or even older (maybe in like shitty prebuilt office pcs where you just slap in a gpu & some ram)

yeah, imo if you want a budget build & you don't have a zen board already, 12th gen intel is likely all you need and offers that cheaper than a 5600. If you already have a zen board, just slap in a 5700x3d (mainly if US) or 5600 & off to the races you go

The full speed thing is a holdover from older fans that needed a big kick to get moving. It hasn't been necessary on mainstream PC fans for a long time (like 20 years) but I guess they left it in for safety reasons then decided to take it out at some point.

>doesn't seem to ramp up as much
The new BIOS probably enables hysteresis by default. This is something you should have done when you bought it btw - modern CPUs boost on a hair trigger and it's much quieter if you let that soak into the metal. Especially if you have an aftermarket cooler on there.

>Is that normal?
It's a bit weird to change those settings with a BIOS update but it wouldn't surprise me to see a manufacturer mess around like that. Often the BIOS department is like 3 giga-autists in a shed so random tuning is to be expected.

I didn't even know it was a thing in the BIOS. Everything seemed to work well and I didn't mind the noise, so I just left things as they were. But now that the ramp-up noise gone it feels weird.

>It's a bit weird to change those settings with a BIOS update but it wouldn't surprise me to see a manufacturer mess around like that.
Makes sense. It's a four year skip, too, because I never updated my BIOS since 2020. I did make sure to check the list of BIOS versions beforehand to see if there were any I had to update to first before I could jump to the latest one, and they didn't mention anything.

Performance per dollar for cooler. They'll do the same thing (and thermalright coolers look ugly). Same for the CPU. The 7800x3d, especially at current prices is simply not worth it. Over double the price of a 7600x for small gains. For the card, 4070 super is the perfect sweet spot. 7800xt is a good alternative but it's weaker and since he wanted the ultimate 1080p card, that's it. Other workload like emulation is also much better on nvidia.

No need for the 10900k unless you have specific programs that needs a monolithic low latency 10 core
7800x3d's & 9800x3d's are available and 11800x3d's will probably be homogeneous cored too and not need a special scheduler

I think they look pretty good, but of course it depends on how good your components look combined.

That layout protects retards from melting the PSU side of the connector, it's mostly used by Super Flower & Corsair.
It's not some kind of cheap compromise, just try to get a ATX 3.1 spec unit if you're buying a new one.

The spec doesn't require a native 12VHPWR or 12V-2x6 connection to be on the PSU's power panel.
It only requires the unit to be able to connect to new video cards with a 12VHPWR or 12V-2x6 power header.

ASUS TUF has good build quality, you might have to repaste the GPU TIM if your card has got the rapidly deteriorating one applied.
This affected ASUS' 4080 and 4090 cards including Strix, not sure about Supers yet.
If you're in the US, there are decently priced alternatives like Gigabyte Eagle or Gaming OC, you might have to tweak the fan curves if they run loud for you.

>>102912978
Nigger, no. Intel can't even give a straight answer as to whether LGA1851 will support additional CPU generations.
So people are paying a single-generation, new platform premium for a CPU that's barely better than their 14th-generation refresh sets.
It's practically guaranteed to perform below the 9800X3D.
>muh power efficiency
The tiles will incur additional power draw at low-loads/idle just like the Ryzens.

Node means fuck all if you can't design a great compute cores.
Intel practically accepted Zen 5 X3Ds, with CCXs in N4P, will outperform Arrow Lake.
N3B is a mediocre 3nm node anyway, I doubt Zen 6 will be on that.

give it some time
if it doesn't boot after like 20 min, shut it down, take out both ram sticks & put one of them in a different slot, then try again. If that doesn't work in 20 min, try the other stick

I have an AMD 5500GT running Linux, Micro-ATX board and 400W beQuiet power supply, 80 plus gold. Can you estimate the power consumption w/o HDDs when using this as a NAS + AdGuard DNS? I wanted to buy some kind of small pc where I can attach some sata drives, but it appears that this isn't easy, as I cannot connect HDDs to a minipc. So I thought about just using a regular desktop computer instead.

Easily <50W on average and probably more like <30. Naturally if you load it, eg. encoding for Plex, that'll go up.

I've heard on the grape vine to not buy a graphics card because the 4070 will be as strong as a 4090 with their new type of vram.
>>
>>102913660
Yeah low power states and dynamic clock selection has come a long way. Though >100W seems a little high for that system. Was it a high-end GPU?
>>
One of the RAM sticks is fucked desu.
>>
>>102913649
Did you test each of the memory modules in B2? That would rule out memory stick issues for now.
Try updating the BIOS to 3.08, not a guaranteed solution.

Did you last look into them during some gpu shortage where a low end card went for $500? There were tons of fake sellers promising cards at msrp during that time. Amazon is fine, I’ve bought almost all of my parts from Amazon and have had no issues. If you really are worried, record yourself unboxing your card, Amazon usually has good customer support in my experience anyway
Oh, and don’t buy anything not ship & sold buy Amazon, unless it’s the company you’re buying it from

>>102913027
ASRock ProRS WiFi is generally good value for money, whether DDR4 or DDR5.
MSI Pro motherboards were also popular recommendations.

Some of the high-end Z690 boards (+$500) are sold below $250 now, like the Taichi & Strix E.
