>>103180846>created a new thread at 309Can you not be a massive faggot
>>103180832>getting a 78x3d can i run 6400 1:1?depends on memory controller lottery but you're better of running it at 6000 1:1 and timing your ram to the max
Strix 870-F or Gigadick x870E? Also do either split the pcie slot bandwidth when you use all nvme slots?
>>103180846Is there a tool to find bundles, like how PCpartpicker shows component prices?I'm looking for a 9900x bundle, but might buy a 9700x bundle because I can't find big savings on the 9900x.
>>1031808326200 is probably easier but if you get a good IOD you would be able to do ithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xcn_nvWGj7U
Well this is a pleasant surprise. It's coming significantly earlier.
>>103180960yeah people need to calm the fuck down and anyone who bought from a scalper is a moron
>>103180893>9700xWhy don't you like performance? Why not get 7900x or 7950x?
>>103180960Grats anon
>>103180887I'd stay away from gay-sus. I'd get asrock, but gigabyte is fine too. asrock x870e nova or taichi lite.
>>103180893It's usually Newegg or Microcenter offering CPU/Motherboard/Memory bundles, not that hard to comb through.Amazon's bundle deals are inconsitently offered and in limited quantities.https://www.newegg.com/tools/combo-builder/6675?cm_sp=Head_Navigation-_-Under_Search_Bar-_-Combo+Up+Savings&icid=758623https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/bundle-and-save.aspx
>>103180960Leaks are saying 9800x3d stock is very good so that's expectedFor upgraaaders I recommend selling your 7800x3d asap while x3d pricing is high
>7900x3dthe fuck is this lads?
Anyone do you know a program that can just fill dedicated vram for desired amount of megs?I need this for testing perfomance of shared vram (trying timings vs clocks tests and ram overclock), so i need to fill dedicated/onboard gpu vram (high bandwith) to prevent gpu chip using it. And the tested games will use shared memory insted.AMD ryzen APU youtube tests its a bit not what i need.
>>103181076Figured it out it's 6c dual ccd cpu, garbage lmao.
>>103181076An abomination.
>>103180985>9700xHas the performance I need at a reasonable price.>Why not get 7900x or 7950x?7900x is comparably priced to the 9900x, and I'd rather spend a little more for better performance. 7950x/9950x is more than I'd like to spend, but I could be swayed if I found a bundle inside my budget. >>103181045>Amazon, Newegg or MicrocenterThat's where I've been looking, I was hoping there were more places with bundles.I worry that if I stare at the 9900x for too long, I'll upsell myself, and start buying things I don't need.
I WANT A 5090 I WANT A 5090
Should I be retarded and sell my sealed 7800x3d for 381 to 400 eur? Then wait a bit without a cpu and buy the 9800x3d? Or just sleep in the bed I've made and buy the next one instead.
>>103180874>>103180900So 6400 is a possibly then
>>103181149How much will it cost with a 60% tariff slapped on top?
I WANT A 5090 I WANT A 5090>>103181167ausfag here wealways pay the sloptax
>>103181159Anything is possible but it's a lottery. You will have to waste days stress testing yourself once you get it and do the manual timings over and over again.
>>103181175My usual solution is to up the dram volts to 1.4ish like i did with ddr4 looks like ddr5 no different
>>103181159yes if your IOD can do it
wew these mobo sales for am5 are nuts 800 series sucks but im guessing 600 series selling gangbusters>>103181188iod?
>>103181171>5090 2.8K USD = $4400 AUD>>103181195the IOD is the input output die on AMD cpus, it has the memory controller, pcie controller, USB controller and 2CUs of RDNA2 in Zen4/Zen5
I haven't posted on /g/ or kept up on PC parts in years.My 1080ti is slowly losing it's battle against game developers, and I knew STALKER 2 was going to finally be too much.Was seriously considering a 4090 but I just don't game as much as I used to.Did I do good?>3440x1440@165hz>750w PSU
>>103181216Remind me, wich AMD zen generetions using heatsink under metal plate cover? Or they all dont?
>>103181216it will be 3.5k~ AUD because why would the US Tarif be included in our price and kopite7kimi already confirmed the price has not increased from the 4090
>>103181250I don't understand what you're asking.>>103181261>kopite7kimi already confirmed the price has not increased from the 4090even Jensen doesn't know the price yet, he pulled that out his ass.
>>103181232>STALKER 2Will be not to much. I tried to test Hellblade 2 on gtx 1050 and its 8 fps, but if you turn on photo mode, fps is 20. Then disable some nanite crap and i got 40 fps in some arenas with photo mode, but devs "cap" fps in gameplay or so gods of optimisation, what the hell is happening and why i donno. But thats really weird.1080 will holde stalker for sure.
>>103181275MLID cope, your predictions have been dogshit this year just give up
>>1031812324080s is not a bad pick, see if 7900xtx fits you, might be cheaper too.
Is 45°C max temp on a silent fan curve at idle good? Room temp is about 23°C.
>>103181250To transfer heat from the crystal to metal plate cover of cpu intel used heatsing wich can dry.Thats why people scalp their cpus, to replace heatsing with metal fluid. AMD did use heatsink or no?
>>103181289don't swear at me.what kind of delusion do you have to be under to think Nvidia will gift you more performance for the same money?
>>103181275>I don't understand what you're asking.>>103181310
>>103181261More than 60% of Nvidia gpu sales are in US. If those drop massively the price of the GPUs sold abroad will go up as well.
>>103181155Sure, if you have a backup system and don't need to be gaymen for 24/7It won't be too long until 9800x3d drops to its 480 MSRP and available widely, making demand for 7800x3d far lower, lowering it's resale value
>>103181372>480 msrp+21% that means 550 eur, that's insane I've paid 360 eur for the 7800x3d. I'd have to wait one more year for 2025 black friday or summer to get something even close to that.>making demand for 7800x3d far lowerthat's a guaranteed so say good bye to even the 360 eur price if I decide to rebuy it again. It already sells for way more.I guess I'll have to sleep in my bed for two more years or three.
Looking at upgrading my storage on my build but debating between getting a hdd or another SSD. It's mostly for archival stuff but I prefer the reliability of an SSD over a hard drive. Secondly with tariff's becoming a thing, would it be worthwhile to build a new computer or wait a while longer? From reading the previous thread it seems like some of the AMD CPUS are having issues and the 5000s series have just been announced.Thinking about waiting another year or two to see a bigger improvement in specs.
>>103181446>I prefer the reliability of an SSD over a HDD>buys seagateCount your blessings for that thing still being alive.
>>103181003Something like the taichi lite looks pretty decent, or should I drop down to the 2 sata ports on the riptide and use the 200 extra bucks for a sata expansion card?
>>103181446>it seems like some of the AMD CPUS are having issuesthats not a thing, its just a moron who put the cpu in backwards
>>103181517Never had a Seagate SSD, are they as bad as their HDDs?

>>103181638this has been disproved dozens of times FUCKWHIT
>>103180846Hello, I'm helping a friend with upgrading their PC and would appreciate some advice. It's been a while since I've shopped around, so I'm not familiar with what's good. Here's his rig's specs:GPU: 1660 Super 6GBCPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600GRAM: 16 GB (2x8GB) DDR4Monitor: 24" 1920x1080 144hzHe wants to be able to play games at 1080p on high/max settings. Checking around, I see that the RX 6750 XT is recommended often for this sort of use case - or the 3060 Ti or 3070 for the corresponding NVIDIA cards. Are there any cards you would recommend based on this use case? For the CPU, I'm thinking of the Ryzen 5 5600X. Would this do well with the aforementioned cards?Budget is ~$1,000, based in the US and live near a Micro Center.
>>103181642Wrong
>>103181624it should be a decent 30% jump in performance
>>103181647YES U ARE
>>103181611This is purely anecdotal of course, but out of all the HDDs and SSDs I've had, only the seagate ones have died (3 in total). My longest lasting seagate was, ironically, a HDD that lived for about 5 years. This was about 10 years ago. The last seagate I bought was an SSD from 4 years ago that lived for 1 year.
>>1031816446 cores to replace with 6 cores? Dont do this. If no money just skip cpu purchase.Better check the PSU and buy new one if required and puwerful GPU for 800$
>>103181644ryzen 7 x3drest on gpu which the psu can handle
>>1031816445070X3D and a 4070 TI SuperJust within budget and it will tear apart 1080p
Koorui koorui 24e3benq mobiuz ex240KTC H24T09Ppixio px248 proMSI G244PF E2all good 1080p panels 24 inch with low response time, buy the cheapest
>>103181624Nah.Save more and get something better.You won't notice too much.230 dollars isn't that great of a deal for that card anyway.>>103181446Get ssd if money isn't too much of an issue. Reliability doesn't differ much, but they are quiet unlike hdds.You can make a build now and reuse the GPU. You will see decent improvement elsewhere.
>>103180846What is that painted on the cylinder?I thought it might have been the guy from this music video but I remembered wrong.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRPxao3e_jY
Will it be alright to just use a all thermalright case fans or will they implode at some point? I know they're cheap due to manufacturing reasons but idk if there are some other downsides. I can do up to 10 120mm fans on my build and I don't feel like overpaying on case fans.
>>103181658Oh Seagate. I guess they're great for curing data hoarding, but not good for much else.
>>103181548I bought x870 pro rs wifi for the usb4, wifi and pcie 5.0. Try to get x870 or x870e from asrock, any board.
>>103181737>Save more and get something betterwhat would you suggest?
>>103181857NTA, how much is 7900gre? Can you get that?
>seagate ssdhttps://www.techpowerup.com/ssd-specs/#seagatehttps://www.techpowerup.com/ssd-specs/#crucialreally funny seagate tbw is like almost doubling crucial number. i think seagate lied.
>>103181880$629 I think that's a bit to much for me desu would my PSU even handle the 6700xt?
>98x3d burning up--Oh no, not again...>--in MSI boardsAh. False alarm.
>>103181899You will need psu upgrades too. Are there any used cards around your area?
Why do people say I should buy 9800x3d instead of 14900k?14900k is cheaper and has much faster speeds (6ghz) and more cores?
>>103181924>14900kLiteral ewaste that commits seppuku. If you want cheaper, go with 7800x3d. Still one of the best chips around.
>>103181117Bump question.
>>10318192414900k uses more than double the power and for less performance to boot
>>103181924Unlocked 13/14th gen Intels were degrading (at stock settings) due to excessive voltage. There is a patch out but given the nature of degradation it's not clear it's been fully fixed. Also the 9800X3D is just faster in games if that's your use-case.Anyway, feel free to take a chance on the i9 if you like. It's a strong performer and the degradation issue has cratered the price.
>>103181924>Why do people say I should buy 9800x3d instead of 14900k?Because if you are one of the many unlucky people, your CPU will die, and Intel will not RMA you.>14900k is cheaperBecause of these dying CPU issues, the MSRP of $590 has absolutely plummeted beyond any reasonable expectation for one year. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.>and has much faster speeds (6ghz) and more cores?But if it were stable, it would be a great productivity CPU and a pretty good gaming CPU. However, let's be honest here. 90% of the people here are gamers first, and the X3D chips just fucking demolish intel.
>>103181970the amdrone is lying again
>>103181938>>103181940>>103181963>>103181970But I do more than just gamingI also do multi tasking and productivityalso the games I do occasionally are like sims or building games where I need higher ghz?
>>103181921some 3070 are around the same price as 6700xt6800 up are pretty rare over here unless your buying bnewWould MWE Bronze 650 be good enough for the 6700xt if i pull the trigger?
>>103182021>sims or building games where I need higher ghzno you need faster memory performance for that and x3d is currently the undisputed king>But I do more than just gamingfair. if you need 32 threads then just the 14900k or even better, the 9950x
>>103182021Consider 7900x and 7950x. I bought 7900x as I do not gayme. I'm planning to run vms, heavy ass compiles etc.
>>103182021Yeah then like I said feel free to take a chance on the 14900K. FWIW there haven't been any credible reports of degradation with the new microcode. Just don't come crying if yours does die.
>>103181775Please someone talk me out of buying thermalright case fans (or don't). I also have no idea what the difference between the TL C12C and TL C12B V3 is but I'm gravitating towards the latter fan.
>>103182039I thought 7800x3d was better than 7900x3d or something what was difference again ?
>>103182039>I bought 7900x as I do not gayme. I'm planning to run vms, heavy ass compiles etc.should have gotten an Nvidia cardhigh end AMD is cringe as hell unless you're gaming
>>103182037mwe v2 actually very good.
>>103182063>>103182063apologies, I'm drunk, i thought i read you got a 7900xtmy apologies i hope you understand
>>103181117ask gpt to write a C/C++ script that takes up N mb
>>103182063hes clearly talking about the cpu. who compiles code on gpus?
>>103182055case and fan questions hardly get any answers in these threads
>>103182062When it comes to x3d chips 7800x3d is better for windows because windows cannot handle 2 ccd scheduling. 7800x3d is better for gaymen.
>>103182063Funny enough I'm just using iGPU and I'm on the fence for getting a GPU.
>>103182080dude i read "i bought 7900xt as I do not game" and immediately went to flame
>>103182083Im just confused 7800x3d looks so shit on paper with only 5ghz when most intel cpu's do 6ghz
>>103182071No issues anon, I just wish amd upped their rocm game and gave decent performance of 7900xtx and 7900xt. I don't want to deal with Njudea on loonix. I want amd gpu but it won't find the use case, I want it for playing with llms and more models.
>>103182072Sorry I was unfair, those were before the AGESA patch that fixed the 200ns inter-ccd bug.This is after the patch.
Fuck my words are slurring and my posts suck.
>>103181117>>103182076Pay for gpt 4o, it's the best for programming right now. Your imagination and patience are the limit.
>>103181921Seeing this chart but for cpu perf per watt would be fun
>>103182098X3Ds huge and high performing L3 cache cheats in games anon. It's only downside of low clocks on older models is also pretty much fixed on the latest revision found on the 9800x3d
Does Lian Li have the only aesthetic "Mirror+RGB" fans on the market still?
>>103182128But it depends on the kind of games. When you run big sims or sandbox thats different than call of duty
>>103182082They seem like such an important part of a build, basically half of a system's cooling comes from them.
>>103182055The cheap TR fans are pretty bad yes. Thin and brittle. However, they do work and the price reflects the quality. Plus, case fans don't have a hard job to do so no need for advanced flow optimizations etc.I suppose the actual issue is why you're considering them in the first place? Buy a case with enough, or nearly enough, stock fans and add 1 or 2 to fill out the front intake. Heavy diminishing returns after that.If you want something with slightly better build, but still cheap, consider the Arctic P12. If you're a richfag just go Noctua/NB/BeQuiet.
>>103182098speed isn't everything, bulldozer still has speed records at 8.8ghz
>>103182142Well It's up to use to study it and become the helpers. If I shat money or lived in US where everything is cheaper and refunding is easy and the market for reselling is big I would just buy stuff and test it out myself but alas I rely on you guys.
>>103182154How come when I check userbenchmarks the 14900k is still performing better than any ryzen?
lmao case fans are the gayest shit to overpay on. Buy cheap fans. "muh noise" don't put it on your desk 2 foot from your ear like a brain dead gen z retard
>>103182141https://factoriobox.1au.us/results/cpus?map=4c5f65003d84370f16d6950f639be1d6f92984f24c0240de6335d3e161705504&vl=1.0.0&vh=14900k loses quite badly to the 9800x3d in factorio
>>103182185
>>103182209?
>>103182185The ultra 9 285k would be perfect for you. It's the successor to the 14900k and better in every way
>>103182200I have a 7950x, looks like it does terribly. That's pretty sad, I enjoy factorio.
>>103182145>Why are you consideringMy case only comes with 3 proprietary intake fans so I was looking for an alternative that would let me fill out the rest without paying over 200, I can fill up to 7 more fan slots. Reviewers keep saying these fans are good but idk anymore, they also make phantom spirit which is why I'm wondering.
>>103182185>userbenchmarksLol.
>>103182227agreed. only a poor would be seen with a previous generation cpu.

>>103182185Even Intel themselves, the absolute kings of AMD flaming and hate, think UB is a massive cringeworthy faggot they want nothing to do with.
>>103182227Thanks ill look it up but I thought it was more expensive and also not a bigger improvement over the 14900k thats why I wanted the 14900k
>>103182263>>103182227Yeah no, too expensive, my budget is like 500 max
>>103182267get the 14900k, it's definitely not known for degrading in 2 months
>>103182237Looks like 7900x also is not that great.
>>103182271Isnt there like warrenty?
>>103182281don't use warranty, buy a new one when it fails
>>103182281Well no, that would be antisemitic and you'd be barred from entering god's holy land
>>103182289I dont have much moneyI think about 7800x3d because it is also most popular and most bought on my webshopPic relatedbut yeah, Im afraid 7800x3d is too slow for the heavy sims game I do Is this good combination?
>>103182292Serious replies only this is a lot of money for me and I dont want a slow new system I need high speed
>>103182293you def want to wait for 9950x3d instead
>>103182300What are specs and timeframe and price?
>>10318230416 core with l3 cache under both ccd for about 800€
>>103182276Maybe I should upgrade to the 9950x3d when it comes out.
>>103182308yeah thats too much, i only have 500 for cpu
>>103182321then 9950x is an alternative but you'll regret not having l3 cache for the next 10 years
>>103182293No you are bad at choosing parts

>>103182715(Sorry, I meant case rather than PSU.)This is Netherlands, right? PCPartpicker sez "bol." has 990 pro 2tb for 179.90 euros.>>103182724Right, CPU manufacturers always claim to support only really low RAM speeds. For example, for 7800x3d it's only 5200.That's just a minimum, almost all CPUs can do more than it.
>>103182837okay so 6400 is no problem and best speed lowest cas?thanks ill check out bol
>>103182719No you dont understang. I need just to fill gpu memory (vram) and kinda lock it. But that test is filling it and gpu load is 100% so i suspend the process (no more gpu load) and get what i need, then i run any modern game for test, but windows is moving memory parts by itself from vram to shared vram when not in use looks like. Thats suck.
>>103182844its something like 100% can do 6000, 95% can do 6200, 50% can do 6400, 10% can do 6600 and 1% can do 6800tldr get 6000cl28 or 6000cl30 if you're not keen on manually overclocking
>>103182693Nah, I just didn't want to take a new picture of my build, so I used a WIP one.

>>103182668I had this happen a while back and in my case it was the Samsung 870 drive shitting itself after a few months. Didn't find out until later that there was a bad firmware update.

>>103182895>>103182668This was me on a SN770 drive. Firnesre update fixed it.
>>103182918Firmware*
are we entering a dark age of CPU prices?
>>103182884So pretty. Asrock nailed it.
>>103182941we're already 2 months in
>>103182946the diagonal pixelated print is tacky af

Asus has fallen. Their TUF lineup is now like ROG Strix. Overpriced and not much better quality than other brands like ASRock Taichi. Big example is how the TUF 7900XTX is Tier 3 just above reference but the Taichi and Phantom Gaming are Tier 1.
>>103182918>>103182895I have an SN850x, I will go update its firmware, thanks! That's not something I would've thought of myself.>>103182953It's the best looking white/gray mobo I found. I sent back a taichi carrera because the marble print looked way worse than this
>So 70fps without FG, enabling FG will get you 60fps native, and outputting 120fps with similar to 30fps input latency.who asked for this? This is lower IQ than the Stadia thing.
>>103182941the 9900K was $488 in 2018, the 9800X3D is $479 which is basically $405 in 2018 dollars.so if anything the top CPU price has come down
>>1031829417600 is 200$5700x3d is 170$and now nvidia is entering the desktop cpu space in 2026
>>103183011its something you dont know you need until nvidia makes it
>>103183011You're supposed to combine it with Nvidia Reflex or AMD Antilag in the driver. The input lag is negated mostly while you still keep the visual smoothness. You're also supposed to pair it with a Freesync Premium monitor so Low Framerate Compensation kicks in.
>>103183053Reflex primarily focuses on reducing the CPU-bound portion of the render queue so you CANNOT PHYSICALLY in this cosmos get less latency than the native before frame gen so it would still be slower than say 70 fps native and you'll still have added additional time to the overall rendering process from the interpolated frames so more latency as a base.CPU work -> GPU work (native frame) -> GPU work (generated frame) -> Display. Reflex still optimizes the CPU->GPU handoff for the native frame, but the generated frame adds extra processing time after the initial GPU work is done.
is ray tracing something that people actually play with when its possible or is it reddit fps waste that you get bored of after week of playing with new gpu?
>>103183071Maybe on Nvidia but there's a measurable difference with AMD.
>>103183074FPS waste
>>103183077>AMD can break the space-time continuum.Your image explains the exact same process behind Reflex. Re-read what I wrote.
>>103182707Specs? Idk run whatever gay free benchmark software is meme
>>103183074Ray tracing destroys the artistic intent of the designers that gave their ok for the assets and how scenes look. You'd need a game built up from start to finish at all levels of production with ray tracing for it to be coherent.Otherwise it's not different from gaymers adding 8k textures to san andreas, puttin in assets from modern games and using reshade.
Would you pay 50$ extra for 3 fans instead of 2? On 4070 super
>>103183139I would compare the models in a less one dimensional fashion
>>103183139I would save the money and buy a 50xx gpu instead
>>103183074You use that if you are on a 4080 or 4090 to comfortably take the hit on games where it actually brings noticeable change.Otherwise it is just FPS waste yeah.
>>103183139Chances are the 2x fan model is already doing good, check reviews, hardware unboxed gives info in depth for these things. Use AI to extract their info in table format. Also rely on techpowerup and other websites that give even more info.
>>103183139Does paying like 8% more worth quieter operation to you?I would if I am not on a tight budget, but I am not you ultimately.
>>103183189Wait for 5070 Super in february 2026 or maybe buy it during summer/bf.
>>103183084reflex is nvidias method for direct x games. amd has literal anti lag+ extensions built into vulkan api that nvidia doesnt have.
>>103183074Waste.Ray traced reflections are cool though.
>>103182996>It's the best looking white/gray mobo I found. I sent back a taichi carrera because the marble print looked way worse than thisMental retardation. But I shouldn't be the one to talk because I chose an expensive board because I didn't like the pg lightning.
>>103183229Reflex is API agnostic.>but what about.. x, y, z>whataboutism instead of admitting being wrong or attempting to refute the central point in case you believe I'm in the wrongat the end of the day none of these things can do magic, sorry, there's simply more latency at the end of the chain if you measure it with frame gen hence why it's a moron feature
>>103183074Nah I do love how beamng looks with maxed out reflections looks really nice especially at night however it's not raytrace based i think it's voxels? Looks and runs nice in vr maxed anyway
>>103182846I DO get itbut I don't want to support your pointless retardation, of which you didn't even name a reason for
Anyone know a PSU that comes with nice flat, flexible cables? I got be quiet straight power and the cables are so thick and chunky it's very inconvenient for cable management. Especially that ATX 24 pin makes a big U shape routing it back to the grommet.
ddr5 6000cl30 vs 6800cl34which are better kit
>>103182941we already did, when the 7800X3D went from 330€ (including tax) to 450€also thanks to Intel, for literally killing itself
>>103183011working as intendedthe RTX 8090 will be GeForce now exclusive
If you had a old gtx 1650 lying around, what CPU would you pair it with ?ideally something I don't have to spend over a $150 for a motherboard / cpu combo as I already have spare RAM and hard drives lying around from another old PC.I want to make a semi-decent mini itx shitbox for piracy and emulating old games in HD.
>>103183331Assuming AM5, get the 6000cl30. Running 6000 cl30 at 1:1 is going to be faster than running 6800 at 2:1.
>>103183371an old ryzen like the 2600 or 1600af
>>103183331Also, to get better performance, you are looking at ddr5 8000 kits and very expensive motherboards.
>>103183330You need thicker and higher gauge cables for certain things anon.
>>103183331why not 6400 cl32 its what I wanna buy
>>103183371> ideally something I don't have to spend over a $150 for a motherboard / cpu comboNothing so cheap on pcpp, there is on ebay. MicroATX instead of ITX has more options.
>>103183371Try something used, 4600g, 4650g, 5600g for board, itx boards are expensive. I'd go asrock for boards, though. 150bux and itx don't go in the same line.
>>103183425would there be much difference between a 2600 or 1600X ?the latter is only $30 secondhand here whereas the 2600 is $50.I already know a ITX am4 motherboard will run me $100 - 140, it'll probably be the most expensive part to buy.
>>103183457Get that only if it also comes with a 6000 expo profile.
>>103183445I used to have this cable set for a Silverstone PSU. Was very nice for cable management in a smallish case.
>>103183370how can anyone be that fat
>>103183324>your pointless retardationWhat? I defined the point at the beggining.>I need this for testing perfomance of shared vram (trying timings vs clocks tests and ram overclock)
>>103183457good luck running that on ryzen only a fraction cpu can do 6400 and an even smaller number can do that at low voltages
>>103183493i dont know what that is>>103183523oh yeah I saw it too it can only support max speed of 5400maybe i should also get 6000 instead of 6400 then if I wanna go with ryzen?
>>103183505Americans with too much money and too little self control
>>103183382Can 6800cl34 kit do 6000cl30
>>103183531If you look at the spec, it should list all the expo profile that it supports, if it doesn't do 6000, you might have to end up doing undervolting and shit. Better to go with 6000.
>>1031835316200 is the true sweet spot but no recent kits are rated for thatThe next best would be 6000cl28 or cl30
>>103183543If it doesn't come with a 6000 expo profile?
>>103183492get the 2600 if possible. its has a lot better compatibility with ram and in general better.
is it normal for my monitor to looks slightly yellow-ish when its "color-accurate"? It does match extremely close to my phone srgb mode with somewhat more deeper colors
>>103183554you set it manually
>>103183585might as well buy green hynix sticks and pocket the difference
>>103183589you wont able to get 6000 with green stick manual or not
>>103183599bullshit. those use the same ICs and its what overclockers bought before all these fancy xmp kits launched and they can do 7200mt/s just fine
>>103183601good luck getting lucky with that
If I buy an AM5 motherboard with a 5+2+2 Phases Digital VRM Solution, is it a bad idea to buy a high-power CPU like a 9950X?
>>103183564make sure you don't have warm colours activated if you are using windows.I set mine to come on a night to reduce eye strain and it basically yellows out the screen.
>>103183613Getting lucky with buying hynix a die by searching the exact part number? Lol ok
>>103183555okie dokie, thanks anon.
>>103183626yes you fucking retard
>>103183505Cheap food, childhood traumaAlthough for people that fat, it's actually pretty damn expensive to maintain that. If they ate the "average" amount of calories for an American they would drop 10lbs a month with no other effort.
>>103183626Search for the exact right memory die is overrated, just get something on your boards QVL.
>>103183637ok stop talking about yourself now
>Can 6800cl34 kit do 6000cl30can anyone else who isnt a retard tell me can you do this
>>103183666you can but buying an xmp you cant use is retarded
>>103183672Xmp for retard like you
>>103183675bold of you to assume i use xmp
Can a GPU overclock pass stress tests and be fine in games but cause occasional freezes during light use?
>>103183694yes
>>103183694dynamic frequency scaling is a thing on cpus & gpus. stress tests max out the power on all cores so they cant boost as high. light tasks will boost individual cores higher.
>>103183697>>103183698And why does this happen exactly? Should I use a curve instead of a flat offset so the low power state clocks aren't too high?>>103183710Does this happen on older cards, too (mine is a 1070Ti)? And if so, is the reported clock just the highest across all cores?
>>103183734nvidia cards have had it since gtx 600https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/technologies/gpu-boost/technology/
>>103183740Now that I think about it I do sometimes see the max clock value in HWInfo reach about 25Mhz higher than what I set it to. Should I just relax the OC a bit or can this behaviour be disabled?
>>103183694Nvidia? no, because they allow you to adjust every voltage point of the curveAMD? yes, because they are lazy niggers and only give you an offset
>>103183769>Nvidiaforgot to say, if you crash with them its a skill issue/user errorand for AMD you're just fucked because you don't get granular controls
>>103183753you lower the power limit or lower the clocks. whichever is the limiting factor first.
>>103183779>>103183769Stupid phoneposting cunt
>>103183780What does the power limit have to do with crashing? If your PSU can handle the spikes you just leave it on max.
>>103183614as you can see the shittier boards throttle it but there is no need to get a fancy $200 luxury board
I changed my motherboard preset to> PBO, Tjmax 85C, curve optimizer -30mvIs this good? I have no idea I'm just kind of going through different presets to gauge the performance vs temps.
>>103183789>If there’s extra power available, a Boost Clock is enabled increasing clock speeds until the graphics card hits its predetermined Power Target. the boost is determined by the power limit or clock rate.
>>103183794how do you know it's stable
9800x3D MSRP is $479, but last night and this morning there's a very shady seller on Amazon trying to sell them for $439.I say shady because the seller page says it's "newly established", they have nothing else on their seller page other than the 9800x3D, no reviews, and their location is somewhere in China (but the address is entirely in Chinese letters, so IDK where)So I can only assume it's a scam.
>>103183810it's 50-50 whether it's a scam, I'd say it's not worth the risk nor the extra wait time.

>>103183925OCCT (set it to variable load, run for at least an hour). Ironically, if the undervolt is too much it might crash right after you finish the test.
>>103183819Oh no the 50 people still employed at rtg got firedAnyways And I say that as a amd GPU fan the drivers are fucked had to reinstall ones from 4 months ago just for it to be stable maybe it's my old PSU but still wtf if it still happens on a new build I feel like RMA and getting a 5090 I think its definitely a driver issue but suddenly not being able to OC or uv UC in adrenaline makes me think it's power related

>>103184093It's not a scalper it's a retailer charging 100aud over msrpThe actual scalper is the one selling a 78x3d for 350usd used but that's my backup
>>103184053lol no9800x3d already bottlenecks the 4090. A gpu that's 30-50% faster will be in bottleneck city until the 19800x3d launches
>>103184062It'll be a pretty big difference, the cable currently makes like a big U shape out of the grommet then immediately back to the board. I got angles for the USB headers already since I'm less worried about them melting or something but the ATX one looks kinda sus.
>>103184097its the early adopters' tax. I dont think this will go on for long since its not like crypto where every wannabe miner bought infinite amounts of gpu when they're in stock. Eventually, 9800x3d's supply will surpass demand and it will fall to msrp and even below msrp given enough time.
>>103184094Based on leaks it's 50% faster than a 4090 at the same priceAMD gpus are dead until udna rdna 4 is a flopRdna 5 probably as well we will have to wait until 2026 to find out which puts udna 6 at 2027 minimum Next 3 years is gonna be bleak no competition from amd or Intel in gpus battlemage mia Intel also shitting the bed in every other way including CPUs and Nvidia competing against themselves for almost 5-10 years running in gpus
