>>102948230I haven't bought a PC in 5+years.How far have things come really?This old bitch is still kicking.
>>1029483372060 btw
>>102948337>>102948344You could upgrade to a 5700X3D or a new platform (9800X3D).If you're not in a rush, it's probably better to wait for the 5060 in terms of video card upgrade.
Make sure to warm up those cope responses for the arrow lake release anons. We've hit denial so far and I would like to see the ball keep rolling.
>>102948403Just wait® for the video card's disappointing launches. Potentially from all three chip designers.
How many more years of this shitty GPU market
pajeet said AMD is bad because they don't have Intel APO when I pointed out they have more draw power and less performance.
not a single person is defending intel not even the fanboysstop fighting ghosts
>>102948429still under nda
not even derbauer, the biggest intel shill, is defending arrow lake on the overclock.net forums. this is a terrible release. if you are in the market for a new gaming cpu, it's time ot unironically consider amd or just wait untl next gen
>>102948386>The Nvidia RTX 5060 is rumored to be released in March 2025Yeah I think I can wait on thatthanks
>cpu $400>mobo $600>ram $200save all that and put it towards a 5090 instead if you have a relatively recent cpu
>>102948440his words were the results looked incorrect and he has not heard/ experienced any of the instability that MLID droned on about
are these real people?
>>102948337AMD killed Intel, then Intel killed itself, then AMD died to AMD of the past, then Intel killed itself once again.Grab 5700X3D and enjoy the shitshow that is all of DDR5 sockets/motherboards/cpus.
>>102948462intel investors are crashing out and paying for bots to run damage control
why is Steve always out of breath?
>slip on banana peel in 2008>get back up and continue slipping on the same banana peelthis has been intel's strategy for 16 years
>>102948462Yes - it takes a brave person to know that advanced marketing was at play and duped them.
>>102948479As the (now classic) line goes - Intel doesn't know how to be number two and they can't bribe their way out of it this time.
i can't wait for the 5090 to come out. reaaaaally want to get rid of this 4090 and put the melting connector concerns behind me
i can't wait for the 5090 to come out. reaaaaally want to shelve this RADEON HD 6950 and put the massive overkill performance behind me
i really want to motor boat some titties but i don't have a girlfriend...or a 4090...

>>102948566too much heat from the ole' blower>not gonna throw her away tho
I heard it's the best. True?
>>102948440Arrow Lake is going to fine and has a good shot at besting desktop Zen5 at productivity. Only obessive number-chasing /v/tards are going to be annoyed. Gayming hasn't been much of a challenge to desktop CPUs for over a decade+ now. We aren't struggling to sustain 30-60FPS because of the CPU, hell you could stretch that ~100FPS these days.
>>102948578Longevity is not proven, but it's a good short-term paste.
>>102948578just get MX-6 or NT-H2
>>102948578kpX? I have some too, gonna use PTM7950 or whatever knockoff I got from amazon on my next build
>>102948578A waste of money at ambient. Before high end paste consider a better cooler, better fans, ihs lapping, delidding, liquid metal, die lapping.
>>102948578False.
>>102948462>power efficiency is marketing BS
Is there a power supply that comes with nice cables already, or do I really have to order custom ones?
>>102948964better performance is also marketing BS to Userbenchmark bots.
>>102948981I like the flat cables that come with some PSUs, I wish you could get extensions like that but I haven't found any.
>>102948996Aren't extensions bad?
>>102949057cheap extensions can be, mainly because they use thin and shitty wire.

So new AMD and Nvidia cards are going to be announced at CES?
>>102950053>amdwho cares?>nvidiaapparently
List of real-world, actual reasons you should aim for DDR5 RAM instead of DDR4 on a new PC:
>>102949966What about some more rare/obscure AIOs like Valkyrie Syn 360/Dragonfang 360, SilverStone IceMyst 360/420 or Montech 360?They are better than Arctic in some tests. Not sure how trustable are those tests however.
>>102950137you buy a new pc
>>102949652If this is 99% gaming PC, the 5700X3D w/DDR4 RAM is the superior buy by being within margin of error of the 7600X (around the same perf as the 5800X3D in picrel) for much less @ $143 on AliExpress:https://www.techpowerup.com/review/amd-ryzen-9-9950x/21.htmlhttps://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806921974699.htmlSuggested PCPP Build with the above: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ypHGBL (~$170 Saved)If you DO need the extra horsepower for more productivity. I suggest a 13600K-based build. Identical gaming performance to the 7600X but with multithreaded power equivalent to the 7700X:https://www.techpowerup.com/review/amd-ryzen-9-9950x/27.htmlLike the 5700X3D it can also leverage cheaper DDR4 RAM like so:https://pcpartpicker.com/list/NygBgB^Same or better all-around performance for $80 less/
>>102950152yeah but why would you waste money on faster ram when there is no real world difference? I'd rather have 64gb of ddr4 than 32gb of ddr5 and it's the same price
>>10295019732gb ddr5 tends to result in most fps in games while accommodating chrome tabs64gb ddr4 doesnt give you any more fps than 16gb while losing to ddr5
>>102950203you won't get any more fps going from 16gb to 128gb rammost games all you need is 16gbbut talking about other uses for high ram, like handling large files, llm stuffyou save so much money building a ddr4 systemI have 5800x3d, 3090, 64gb ddr4 on am4 board and my shit literally shits on every video game 1440p. if my system died tomorrow why would I way overspend on a ddr5 boardtop of the line current year PC barely outperforms but costs 2x
>>102950186 Also meant to reply to >>102950030If you go the 13600K route don't forget to update the BIOS after assembly to prevent degradation with the final included microcode patches.>>102950041Vertical integration I assume with a bit of wage slavery, as a treat.>>102950142It depends on the Socket (LGA1700 or AM4/5). I wouldn't have any problems with a Montech HyperFlow @ $100 or ID-COOLING DX360 MAX @ $90 if I had to cool a 13900K/14900K(S).https://www.techpowerup.com/review/ibuypower-aw4-360mm-aio-cpu-liquid-cooler/8.htmlhttps://pcpartpicker.com/product/xRdG3C/montech-hyperflow-argb-360-762-cfm-liquid-cpu-cooler-hyperflow-argb-360-whitehttps://pcpartpicker.com/product/NpZXsY/id-cooling-dx360-max-85-cfm-liquid-cpu-cooler-dx360-max
>>102950225going to a new platform enables you to use 9800x3d which gives you more fps alongside more fps from the ddr5 ram
>>102950235>upgrade is a single gen stepNah
>>102950249I said when you build a new pc
I started getting into 3D sims which is requring a fuck ton of ram usage. I'm considering upping my 32gb of ram to 94 or 128. should I be waiting for the 5000 series to drop before I do this? pic related is my current mobo + ram setup
>>102950254AM4 is still the more sane path
>>102950286not for new pc's
>>102950233It's kind of weird that pretty much coolers there are 360, and then Arctic is only 240.
>>102950235Yes, it is faster. But it costs way more. And if your goal is to shred video games, there's no point in wasting money because you won't be able to tell the difference between 80fps and 90fps on whatever fancy game requires a highly powerful GPUand if you're a competitive FPS guy you're going to be playing at lower than 4k and running 144fps with settings turned down without using a lot of eye candy and shitGaymers Nexus' fatal flaw is thinking that if you can't play cinematic console ports at high FPS makes the games unenjoyable... what's the point of playing high FPS red dead redemption? the shit runs on the platform it was designed for (xbox and playstation) at literally fucking 30fpsyou can do that with a 3060 and ryzen 3600
>>102950303budget oriented builds may go for 7600 and that gives you decent perf per dollar + benefiting from the faster ram
>>102949767> Intel > Cheaper
>>102950319>budget oriented builds may go for 7600 and that gives you decent perf per dollar + benefiting from the faster ramwhat I'm saying is that isn't budget oriented. if your goal is a gaming PC, all you have to do is beat the consoles. Every PC exclusive game, the best kinds, can comfortably run on a ddr4 system. it's not "budget oriented" to build a ddr5 gaming computer at all. there is no huge leap in gaming performance between ddr4 and ddr5. realistically, you can stick with gen3 nvme storageif the purpose of your machine is playing video games, getting high speed storage and high speed RAM is literally a waste of money
>>102950354if you're that poor you'd be looking at buying someones used am4 system for the savings over buying new
>>102950382we're talking 'budget oriented' all I'm saying is there hasn't been a leap in video game performance between DDR4 and DDR5 for video gamesso for someone who is building in the current year, aiming for DDR5 is a waste of money. that's literally it. My GPU cost more than your car dude, I'm not poor at all. and my current build with DDR4 can get over 60fps at 1440p in ultra (5800x3d, 64gb ddr4 3600, 3090) and I'm still set until 2030 for every game that will come out
>>102950439you seem mentally unwell.
Speaking of games that will come out between now and 2030, one of those games will be Grand Theft Auto 6 and it isn't gonna be on PCfor 300 dollars you can buy a PS5 and play the most highly anticipated game of this century
>>102950439RAM speed only matters for gaming when you're CPU limited. In cases where you happen to be, DDR5 certainly helps Intel CPUs.(AM4/5 are harder to measure, due to only supporting a single RAM generation each.)
>>102950528brother are you realistically saying you can tell the difference between 112 and 98 fps? I think it's bullshitLike I said, if your end goal is enjoying video games if your priority, you're completely fine building a DDR4 system because there is no discernable differenceI promise you that you will not have a bad time gaming at 90 vs 103I swear on everything holy that you can't tell the difference
>>102950554some games the difference is 12fps, some game its 50
>>102950528pro tip for hardware unboxed
How come Gigabyte is thrashing Asus when it comes to the 4080 Super?https://www.a2kmedia.net/post/rtx-4080-super-tuf-gaming-oc-vs-gigabyte-aorus-masterIt has better temps, better efficiency and higher clocks all at once.
one thing to watch out for if you're looking to get an 80 series GPUit's very easy to call it a "gayty" (ie 10gaytyti, 20gayti, 30gayti, 40gayti)you don't run this risk with a 70 or 90 series
>12Gb is totally fine>meanwhile a game from 2016
>>102950648gigabyte tended to randomly die, that's how
Is there a good resource for comparing GPUs in Vulkan (not CUDA) Compute?I'm not rich, so just shoving a 4090 in my homelab server isn't a real option. Looking to maximize performance/watt efficiency.
>>102950764>buy amd gpu>have to whine about vram for the rest of time to justify the purchase while nvidia owners play video games
>>102950554what kind of a pissbaby plays at 100 fps lolbudget monitors are 144 hz
>>102950789>Looking to maximize performance/watt efficiency.performance/$ in all aspects right now is 7900XT if you can get it for $650, it runs ROCm now and amd is generally alright with computelowering clock to 2300 makes 7900XT a 200w card with 90% of stock prformance
>>102948477he's a big guyfor you
>>102950809>what kind of a pissbaby plays at 100 fps lol>budget monitors are 144 hzmost expensive computer around can't play top end titles 4k 144fps right now the kind of games you want that frame rate at 144fps are very easy to achieve that with 7 year old hardware. YOU couldn't tell the difference if you didn't have your little counters on screen between 70fps and 140fps. This shit only matters to hardware shills on youtube like Gaymers Nexus. and the games that are going to come out that require extremely powerful computers are literally console ports that run 30-60fps (console ports)
>>102950863I play everything at 72fps, there is not much difference between 72 and 144fps at 144hz.
arrow lake is worse than a 13700k? really? why would they release it at all?

>>102951037he's probably referring to the cooler/board build quality since nvidia boards are notorious for shitting the bed with amd it is the reverse

If i have 7800x3dAnd use 2x16GB 6000CL30Should i oc the ram or leave it stocki dont understand
>>102951497you enable xmp/expo in bios to overclock it to 6000CL30, ram doesnt come based with the advertised clock speed/latency
>>102951507why not 7200? or even higher btw
>>102951497Enable expo, if you are feeling adventurous, try buildzoid's easy timings.
>>102951533because that also increases latency which is really counterproductive, 6000CL30 is the sweetspot between high clock speed but relatively low latency
>>102951566so i buy ram 2x16GB 6000CL30then enable xmp/expo to 6000CL30?? how much should i set the dram voltage ?
>>102951598dont touch voltage, the xmp/expo settings are all preset which includes that, so you would use xmp 1 or expo 1. it's a preset when you enable those.
>>102951625*for amd it should be expo, xmp for intel I think, can use both for some I think but it should be expo on amd chips

So an Intel "K" CPU should provide the same power and have the same power consumption as the non "K" version as long as you are not overclocking it, right?

Chinks are claiming Arrow Lake is another case where you have to change windows power plan settings because the default cripples clocks.When will they learn?Reject big.little.Return to homogenous CPUs.
>>102952736>Return to homogenous CPUs.and societies, diversity is cancer
>>102952736according to some austrian guy on OCN you need a specific version of windows 11 with the right scheduler
>>102952336Definitely not a prebuilt; I'm building this rig myself. It’s meant for general use and some light gaming. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D will keep things running smoothly, and the RX 7600 should do just fine for 1080p gaming. I’m going with DDR5 5200 RAM for decent performance when multitasking, plus a 2TB HDD for my games and files. I plan to add more storage later on too.
>>102952767Another Early Access CPU release where they will spend six months unfucking the chipset/BIOS/microcode after it gets beta-tested by early adopters.Fucking hate the Current Year.
>>102952757I wonder what kind of performance boost AMD would get if they suddenly made a monolithic CPU.
Aren't zen 5 also 2 CCXs and require windows to handle scheduling accordingly for max performance?
>>102952390Thank you. I'll look into the suggestions.
>>102952779>general use and some light gamingYou don't need an X3D if all you're doing is light gaming at 1080p. save yourself some money and get a 7600 instead. >DDR5 5200 RAM for decent performancetwo things, unless you actually need 64GB, don't get 64GB. and you should with Ryzen get 6000CL30 as that scales 1:1 with the IF.>plus a 2TB HDD for my games and files. I plan to add more storage later on too.with the money saved from the CPU you can just buy 2TB of gen 4 NVMEall in all you're retarded and i'm glad you came here to get your build fixed
>>102952231Only in non-Z moboAnd even in non Z board they will perform better than non K cpu variants
>>102952782just wait for the fixes bro
>check pcpp list>change everything to parts that i bought/wish i could buyi fixed your build
>>102952801yes but its only bad when intel does it
>>102948413I'm still saving money for a new PC so I'm going to wait anyway. Also with new releases the previous generation of GPU might get some discount and I'll grab something cheaper than it is right now.
>>102952789The 8000 APUs are monolithic and can go down to like 50ns DRAM latency (compared to 65-ish for Zen 4/5), if they weren't crippled by having half the cache and lower thermal headroom, they would probably handily outperform the regular parts.
Help me make up my mind, anons.https://pcpartpicker.com/list/gLWtxHBudget: $1000 USDI'll be using it for gaming, streaming and semi-productive things, granted that I'm not a lazy fuck.Current build should be the same as the pcpartpicker list, outside of the non-purchased items. Those being:>GPU: RX 7600>RAM: 2x8GB 3400mhz CL18 corsair ram>Case: Phanteks P400S>Monitor: BenQ XL2411In the case of the monitor, amazon scammed me out of the actual model I paid for years ago and I can't return it regardless.As of right now, I'm not in any need to change my processor since I've gotten it only two years ago, but I am open to looking at the 5700X3D if anything.I'm really not too sure if I want to get a new case, but I'm fine with changing it as I've had this one for over 7 years at this point and I could possibly just make an HTPC with any remaining parts I have.

take with a grain of salt:
on 7th of next month, AMD is only releaseing 9800X3D right? not the higher end X3D variants?

I have to buy a new monitor for my gf. She runs on a RTX2060 and I'd like an IPS screen with Adaptive Sync (Freesync or whatever) but as far as I can see it only works through DisplayPort or HDMI 2.0 or higher. Many HDMI only monitors claim to have Freesync but the tech specs say HDMI 1.4. What's this about? Should I go only for a DisplayPort screen?
>>102953556Xiaomi G Pro 27i
>>102953556DisplayPort is better anyway (almost always higher speeds and better features; royalty-free and open rather than being controlled by some inane patent structure that demands vast payments from anyone daring to add an HDMI port on their device) and the only reason HDMI is still popular is because for some reason normies know of it more than DisplayPort, so in many cases it's the "default" display connectivity.In any case almost all normal monitors have both ports and so do pretty much all GPUs. The only deciding factor is which cable you have on hand. Buy a displayport cable for ten bucks.
wasnt qualcomm going to buy intel
so what cooler will I need for my 9800x3dmy case only supports 240mm aios, am I shafted or is it fine
>>102953508fun fact: the power is misleading cause it draws power in a different way this timehttps://youtu.be/nmK1rCyKbgQ?si=hFnk0thDgWJPwUtlsteve had to make a special bench to measure power draw just for the new chips. so HWINFO might say 120 watts but it's not 120 watts.
>>102953594my 7800x3D has an ak620 and even that is overkill, there is almost no power draw we're talking like 40-60 watts in games. AIO isn't really necessary but 240s would be fine.
>>102953591No that was a bullshit rumour.
>>102953613What do you mean the 24pin connector can actually supply 12v!? Nooooo only EPS monitoring or software reporting matters.

>>102953594get the Arctic Liquid Freezer III>>102953627yeah but the 9800X3D is probably going to be a little more warm, its running at normal clock speeds compared to the 7800X3D and 5800X3D which weren't.
>>102953651This falling out is going to have some far reaching consequences even if ARM can afford (and they can) to completely cut qualcomm off for real and lose out on the money they bring in. I'd lol though if we suddenly see a lot of companies spin up RISC-V teams as they see it as a plan B in case ARM gets even more gung ho.
>>102953594check how many watts your cooler is meant to be able to cool
>>102953651>you were born just in time for Intel to become Qualcomm's sweatshopSmartphones are coming back home, x86 bros.
>>102953667If qualcomm does that, the investors will tear a new one for the CEO, ARM will back track this decision like no other. ARM has no power here. ARM has shit for brains and they are going to turn into some stupid patent trolls if they keep this up.
>>102953696smartphones are going to be running RISC-V in the next decade
>>102953666anything handling 125W TDP should be plenty for the 9800x3D. Most decent air coolers can do 180+ even, AIO would require even less to cool
>>102953697ARM shouldnt be stupid this would be like TSMC telling Nvidia to fuck off. They need each other.
>>102953667>if we suddenly see a lot of companies spin up RISC-V teamsyou do know that basically everyone is working on RISC-V right?
>>102953697You could also view it as a game of chicken and see who blinks first.>>102953717ARM doesn't NEED qualcomms money. Amazon. Nvidia and Apple are aren't going anywhere.>>102953723Sure but not gunning for any real deployment - we could see an acceleration of work as more people get in on it.
>>102953697>ARM has no power herenot who you replied too, but Apple silicon runs on ARM. Having Apple as a client alone gives them "fuck you" money, and they have other clients.and regardless of how people feel about RISC, it's at least 4-5 years away from being remotely comparable even with massive funding
Is there that big of an improvement going from a 7800x3d to a 9800x3d?
>>102953717You are right, I was going to say TSMC can tell Nvidia to fuck off, but they really can't.
>>102953735>Sure but not gunning for any real deployment because until literally about a week ago there was no standardised ISA for RISC-V, now however there is with RVA23
>>102953742
>>102953735This is so funny anon, who runs those companies? Dei hires? Women? (Mommy Su is fine, but not others.)
>>102953737Anon, Applel is a founding member / investor. They get it for free. This is like Netflix losing 1/3 or 1/5 of their paying customers.
>>102953764i blame DEI hires and women for moores law breaking
>>102953742not sure, the clock increase will help but it's the vcache that does the real magic
>>102953742probably not. very rarely is a single generation upgrade actually worth it.if you're on a 5800X3D or older, its more than likely you'll notice a small increase in performance. otherwise more than likely not going to be worth it unless you don't care about budget.
I hate third world pc shops, these fags will give you a year or two guarantee on everything except the one thing that can blow up, the fucking power supply. Spent like a week trying to find that isn't in the avoid at all costs category kek.
>>102953793Just buy Corsair or Super flower they come with 10years of warranty. You don't have to go to the vendor, you can directly RMA.
>>102953773>Anon, Applel is a founding member / investor. They get it for free. This is like Netflix losing 1/3 or 1/5 of their paying customers.No they aren't. Also, that's not how it works.
>>102953747TSMC sells its best nodes to Apple and makes the most money from them 25%, Nvidia and AMD both are around 10% of TSMCs income.
>>102953773I'd sacrifice 20% to stand on business.ARM wants their cut, and they'll get it. They're too big and there are no alternatives. (Though this will definitely scare people into funding RISC dev now, luckily)
>>102953832Do you even know why ARM are asking for more money?
>>102953815Its only time before Nvidia and AMD come for the best nodes. High end data center customers are going to ask for it and TSMC is going to make if for them. Its only matter of time.
>>102953832Bruh, I'd do it to my business as well, but this is a public company, they can't really take these kinds of descisions. Once you become public, you have to leave your dignity and balls at the door and just turn into a money making machine, at all cost.
>>102953838I mean I'm not a financial expert or IS engineer, but my understanding is a company Qualcomm purchased had an insufficient ARM license for what Qualcomm is using it for? Server devices versus a broader-scoped license?
>>102953844yeah but not for a while, AMD and Nvidia will move to N3 while Apple moves to N2
>>102953863You're almost there, Qualcomm bought Nuvia (ex-Applel) who were making chips for server and promising x86 replacements for consumer devices (this is where the x series has come from) and ARM is arguing that Qualcomm did not inherit the license with the purchase because of the share of royalties in their contract vs Nuvia's old contract. So the case is about if it's valid for Qualcomm to be using Nuvia's license and paying their royalties even though Qualcomm already have a contract with ARM. So it's a bit of both companies wanting more money.
>>102953815>>102953844I'm honestly surprised nvidia isn't on the top, considering how huge their compute clients are.Apple is of a comparable market cap but they make complete devices. For apple, LCD tech, wireless antenna tech, various gadgets like facial recognition cameras and fingerprint sensors, laptop keyboard design and laptop thermals in general... All of that contributes to their market value. And of course marketing, since they're b2c.Meanwhile nvidia is pretty much purely b2b sales of computing power, and that alone makes for a market cap nearly equivalent to the entirety of apple.

>>102953906See the article I read from Slashdot specifically said that Nuvia's license was strictly for server devices, not consumer.Going to do a little more digging.

>>102954070I still believe there are some Honest people. Hwbusters, Gamers Nexus etc. Let's see.
>>102953958>>102953946So per Ian Cutress, Nuvia was only working on/had a server license. ARM licensing works vertically, so "pick-your-market". Server, SoC, Embedded, etc. Nuvia's was server, so their license either doesn't carry over for Snapdragon/Oryon or doesn't apply anyways since it's SoC.Apparently Qualcomm is ARM's largest customer by revenue, and historically Qualcomm was thought to have had an ARM license (though clearly ARM's disputing their compliance).Qualcomm said to Bloomberg essentially that they have "broad rights" under their architecture license and ARM's just trying to get more money out of them. ARM said "no comment" when Ian asked them.Looks like the other side of this is Qualcomm trying to circumvent needing to have new SoC licensing for using Nuvia IP and trying to use their old license to cover new development with IP they bought.Theoretically ARM can file an injunction and block any Qualcomm SoC devices from being sold in the United States.

>>102954178Afaik it's something like>qualcomm, under its own broad license, used mostly arm-designed chips but just customised them (so they also paid for the chip design too, a more expensive license than just the ISA)>nuvia builds chips from scratch, so they only need a cheaper ISA-only license, but they also only have a server license>qualcomm buys nuvia and starts using their bespoke designs for SoC>qualcomm now saves money because they no longer need the chip license since they're using their own (nuvia's)>ARM is mad because qualcomm is using nuvia's designs for SoC when nuvia only had a server licenseBasically from ARM's point of view, nuvia never paid a SoC license, but now Qualcomm (without having to spend tons on their own R&D) gets away with not paying for the cortex license thanks to the acquisition.
