Yo /pcbg/, I got a 14600K recently and while my computer's thankfully running, I'm also noticing that spicy bitch is just chilling at 100c when the computer's idle or when I'm doing some basic internet browsing. I haven't had too much time to fuck around with it because of work so I'll ask here.

What kinda settings should I mess around with in the BIOS to help resolve it? I've set lite load to Mode 1 for right now and I already have the BIOS update for 13th/14th gen. It seems like the BIOS update changed a lot of shit and by default it made my 14600K set to Mode 18 for some reason, which was just insane.

This is on an MSI B660 motherboard, so any help would be appreciated. I have a feeling it's definitely a BIOS setting I need to adjust to help calm this thing down.

i just pre-ordered the silverstone flp-02 case. i plan to just slowly migrate over from my current repurposed dell t5600 workstation that I bought for $150 and chucked an rtx 3060 12gb gpu into. Unfortunately the gpu is the only thing that I can really use in the new case.

depending on how long i take to actually start buying parts, I'll probably go for the ryzen 5 7600 cpu and probably the b650e-e mobo as the platform.

>>107026843
Why would you buy this meme case. Stop watching so much techtuber slop it's rotting your brain

>>107026859
I've been wanting to do a "sleeper build" for a while and this will make it much simpler for basically the same price because nowadays everyone with an old pc knows they can gauge people and sell for more $.

i also just like the look of it. I have a realforce topre keyboard in beige that my work bought for me and this would look cool next to it.

>>107026869
I guess that's fair enough. Now that I remember from the videos they actually designed it to have decent airflow despite the old aesthetics so I guess it's not that bad

How dare you call me a nigger, also I run a 9070xt with a 650w unit so that’s kind of overkill there.

you can get a 750w psu if its cheaper
motherboard any b650 well reviewed or a b850 well reviewed if you want a couple more features and the slightest of future proofing, not that big of a difference

MS did take bigger and bigger steps against user agency and privacy with each iteration of Windows. 10 was outrageous at the time of release, but it's absolutely dwarfed by what they're doing now. 11 literally recording your fucking screen and taking screenshots (with OCR reading the fucking text on them!!!) and feeding it into AI is a whoooole other world of hurt.

Yep. Whatever the current version of windows is is hated and the previous loved. I remember when windows 10 came out and everyone called it the spawn of Satan. We will have windows 11 nostalgia when 12 comes out just watch. I never take crying about the current windows seriously.

I like space for air to flow, aka your dumb ass sees it as "empty space"

I have a 9800X3D and it always runs hotter than people say theirs runs online. I am using an ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 aio and it still idles at 50c, sometimes hitting 75c under full load (cinebench). Why is my chip running hotter than other peoples?

>>107027589
ITX boards are usually higher end and have 2 DIMMs meaning you can clock the memory higher. mATX boards are usually budget so they're as anemic when it comes to I/O. mATX will have two M.2, maybe three M.2 except the third one requires bifurcation and running the GPU x8. Functionally identical to ITX with two M.2 due to space constraints. Might have more SATA but are you building a PC or a NAS?
And if you mean form factor itself it depends on what you want to put in there. Do you want an air cooled 9950X? It'll be tough to fit a decent tower cooler in ITX. A big graphics card may be a tough fit unless you go for those expensive custom ITX cases.
You need to be more specific t.bh

>>107027661
The other people are lying, those are hot chips

>>107027661
Cinebench isn't full load, and those temps are fine.
>Why is my chip running hotter than other peoples?
Probably because you don't have the exact case & cooling setup, and there's differences in ambient temp?

on am4 you could slot a 5800x3d on a b350 but it would be better on a b550
same thing here whatever gets released in the future that is am5 should (bios updates withstanding) work on any b650 board but is probably better on a b850

Yeah, though it would be really weird to pair some cheap ass speakers with a DAC since they cost so much and anyone who wants dedicated audio probably cares enough to spend money on speakers and drive them properly. If that isn’t you, onboard audio is more than good enough for most people these days.

>>107027815
For me it's the NH D15 G2 LBC version. Keeps the 9950X in check and doesn't have an annoying pump noise. That said, Thermalright is ⅓ the price and like 99% as good probably. Noctua is a scam.

>>107028776
>OLED
YOU FOOL!!!!

>>107028776
Depends on your use case. If you aren't using it 15+ hours a day and keep the taskbar hidden it shouldn't be a huge problem. Don't run it at 100% brightness either and you should get at least 3-5 years out of it before any sort of burn in happens.
Also remember that burn in isn't this all or nothing thing. It might be there for a while before you even start to notice it. And usually you can't even see it when you're actually using it for games and such so it hardly matters.

>>107028500
Doubt you can find a better IPS miniLED monitor at that price.

>>107028776
You'll have to lower the brightness, hide the taskbar, change the wallpaper, etc.
The risk is there; prepare to replace it in 5~7 years if it comes to that.

ok, thanks. yea, im very used to just leaving my monitors on all the time with no issues and im in front of a computer pretty much at all times when i am not sleeping or at work so ill have to be aware of that.

>>107028776
Burn in is equivalent to lifespan. The less hard you run the monitor's pixels the longer it will last.

>>107028776
>is burn-in actually something
Burn in is real, if that concerns you to the point where you'll be thinking about it constantly, forget it, just go mini led. A mini led va panel gives you most of the benefits of oled (also cheap as hell now), but you won't have to sit there worrying about your taskbar.
Though there would be some concern on reliability long term with mini led it's nothing like oled

Could also just get a regular va panel, the "new" stuff is kind of overrated anyways and the ghosting/black smear issues are way less then they used to be even on budget screens.

It's an issue specific to the 9800x3d. He did extensive tests on it with 3 of them, there's no way it was just a one off accident.

Hey anons. Im wondering what parts work best for Xbox360 and PS2 emulation. Im torn between using the AMD AI Max or AMD 8745 APU. I wanna take a mini PC and disassemble it to put the parts inside of an old PS2 I have so it could be a sleeper build. My only worry is space, cooling, and performance. I want to save money where I can and make it as cost effective as possible. Does anyone have recommendations or how I could achieve this build realistically.

>>107029896
Minimum haswell i5, rx 570

>>107029911
The issue with running a GPU is space constrants of the PS2 case itll be going in. The verticle clearance isnt enough and Im unsure how Id find the space for a card even a single fan GPU. Using an IGpu saves on space and can be cooled from a single fan.
Ill take a look into low profile GPUs but from what Ive already measured and researched it just isnt feasable.
Theres also the option of running an external power supply through a Pico but that only goes to 300w iirc.
Any advice on getting around the small size of the fat model PS2? Is there something Im just missing or too stupid to realize?

>>107029959
You can use an igpu. It's just more expensive.

So whats the consensus on PBO? Im building a Ryzen system and I have no idea wheter to activate PBO or just leave it on default settings.

Combine PBO with a slight undervolt? Lower tjMax?

Its gonna be an aircooled 7800 x3d. Does PBO even matter for gaming or am I just gonna fry my cpu for 2 extra fps?

>>107030617
PBO can't fry your CPU
it might fry your motherboard but not on an 8 core chip

>>107030632
Fry as in running excessively hot for negligible performance boost.

>>107030664
that's not what "fry" means but PBO isn't gonna do anything on a 7800X3D anyway
that chip is cucked by AMD's firmware and you need BCLK overclocking to get any meaningful gains
just try it yourself, you aren't going to destroy anything

Reading PC enthusiast forums just makes me realize how "not worth it" this shit is for normies. Like, just the fact that buying high-end components and assembling them isn't enough for optimal performance (BIOS settings, EXPO profiles, timing tuning, CPU/GPU overclocking, enabling/disabling features in Windows, modded drivers on Linux, etc. etc. etc.) seems like it would be an instant and massive dealbreaker for someone who just wants to push the power button on their PC case, boot into Windows, and play some vidya goymess.

You dont need to min max a 7800x3d and a 5070 to play at max settings 1440p and medium settings 4k

>>107030759
>PS5 and a macbook
That's the setup of a friend of mine. He wants a desktop PC but the best he could afford in theory is a R5 7500F + 5060Ti combo, and he's mixed feelings about whether or not it's a proper upgrade over a base PS5.
He also has a 5+ years old Lenovo laptop with a mobile 2060 that he keeps around just so he can play Star Wars Battlefront 2 with mouse aiming. I think that's kinda based.

>>107030785
Are other 7000 ryzens "unlocked"? Is it worth messing with the PBO settings?

Should I have gotten a 14600k instead of a 9600X?

>>107030814
>Are other 7000 ryzens "unlocked"?
Yes.

>Is it worth messing with the PBO settings?
Sometimes but generally in the opposite direction. Lowering the PPT to ~150W on the R9 Xs drops the power significantly with negligible performance loss. Raising it a bit on the 9900 non-X does unlock some performance but you might as well buy the X version if you were going to do that.
The 6- and 8-core models get enough juice from their stock PPT to where gains are negligible. You can still use PBO to undervolt them if you enjoy tuning for its own sake.

>>107030737
you're vastly overrating the value of all of that shit

>>107030836
For a gaming rig? No. If you need multicore for work, yes.

>>107030814
They're unlocked but they're also much slower than the 7800x3d in games. 9800x3d is basically a fully unlocked 7800x3d

From a raw FPS:$ perspective the 14600K is technically better value already but it has a lot of caveats that eat into the relatively meagre savings. Especially now that DDR4 is $100 for 32GB.

>>107027130

>>107030917
>Especially now that DDR4 is $100 for 32GB
i think you would only use DDR4 if you already own a decent kit
or you could try your luck on ebay
though if you're gonna overclock a cheap board won't limit your maximum frequency on DDR4, it's easier to achieve peak performance with DDR4

Yeah I'm just saying that 3 months ago the value offering from Intel - cheaper boards and cheap DDR4 - was a lot stronger. Parting it out on PCPP, it looks like you save ~$30 by getting the 14600K whereas it used to be closer to $100.

msi introduced forced 16 hour accumulated usage pixel refreshes, which they later had to walk back to 24 hours, this may or may not cause problems still due to buggy implementation, entirely depends on the screen sleeps and pixel cycles on time
this behavior awarded them a place on the oled shit list, now later upgraded to king of the shit list, due to them being the only ones updating 16h -> 24h, many other manufacturers are still stuck on the 16h counter
they also don't allow you to turn off pixel shift
both these functions are completely useless to have in this implementation and forced like this, they only exist to keep msis warranty going as long as possible
there is no force from the panel manufacturer for them to behave like this or something, it's entirely up to the monitor makers, remember that they forced this on you unwillingly, enshittyfing your display

How about no, you greasy kike.
The Ryzen 9600 isn't even available for purchase anywhere so it is a paper launch. Not a real product. You don't even see them at Microcenter.

Sure, it sounds good to get a 100-200MHz slower chip with a free cooler and I actually WANTED TO DO THIS MYSELF for a budget build, but these fucking things don't exist. You can only buy them from nobodies, third party sellers, or foreign countries.

hallo sirs thank u sirs finally bought a 9070 XT Prime when it dipped in price for like two hours, from an absurd 940 bucks to a way more acceptable 780 bucks. Not great but literally nobody, not even shady tax-dodging shops, sell those for any cheaper, so that's fine.
All that's left for me to upgrade is an SSD since I have a 500gb samsung SATA one, and a monitor since I have a really ancient Full HD Flatron one. Any monitor suggestions for 2k and like 144hz? I've heard there's practically no difference between 144hz and 300hz or whatever, so I don't particularly care about going overboard, plus I am anyways past cybersports age so even if here is a tangible difference I'll soon get too old to notice. I know literally nothing about MiniLEDs vs OLEDs and so on, just want a good monitor.

>>107031475
I have the Odyssey G5 G50D and it's great. If you want to spend more you can look into AOC and KTC's budget miniLED VA monitors. If you're buying a standard LED-backlit LCD monitor go for an IPS panel instead of VA or TN always.
OLEDs are crazy expensive and probably not worth compared to just getting a bigger, brighter and higher resolution LCD for the same or lower price. Think 27inch OLED 1440p vs 32 inch 4K IPS.

they realized having more shit in the way of your legs was not good
last time I was at Ikea I had to test how if the steel beam theory of hitting legs in middle was true or not, being a manlet I almost suffered being fully close to the table
it's very close to hitting legs
maybe if I am less fat I would be even closer then it would hit
if you sit precisely up against the table that is

Ooh, the Odyssey seems like a really solid rec. Good specs, the price is actually reasonable and not an absurd 3x markup some other monitors sell for where I am. Thanks, anon, this saves me a bunch of hours of staring at random Asus and Xiaomi monitors.

>>107031516
I have 0 problem on my old desk from 20 years ago, the tray is not hitting my legs even when I sit cross legged
You'd need to adjust your chair to have a proper position for it
I tried a desk without tray but I feel like I'm too close to the monitor, I like how I can choose how far I am from it with and adjust the tray length

I want to buy a monitor but according to a youtube review it has poor overshoot rating at 60hz
What does that mean? Do games look bad at 60 fps?

>>107031944
60hz monitors for gaming isn't a good idea. It looks choppy, input lag is high + if it's not Freesync / gsync compatible then it's going straight to the trash in 2025.

So essentially the 600mhz speed increase is cancelled out by the slight timing increase?

>>107032025
6600 requires manual tweaking in bios and u can most likely not run it either more like 6400 tops
and most likely you are running x3d so its all even more pointless
so literally who cares

>most likely you are running x3d so its all even more pointless
Sorry but what do you mean by that?

It can go up 160 Hz but my pc can only run modern games at around 60 fps so I'm worried

x3d chip on ryzen, so giant cache, so ram matters even less
inb4 spergs pop up and says ram still matters
ram gains are bigger on non x3d that is all

>>107032093
if it's 144hz it's probably an older panel, if it's 165hz also old
they are all 180hz now or 200hz on the latest ones non oc
higher color gamut better
all good monitor deals happen outside of bf, I don't think it will dip below 135€ here for the current poverty king monitor, same monitor which is double on other outlets other than amazon, varies wildly by retailer and periods, market is volatile, same store sell one monitor for 3x the price

okay i updated it to at least 180hz which makes sense
im basically hoping for any of the decent poverty screens that are right now 200-250€ to get any sort of discount, i dont have any model already in mind
If i can shave 25€ on a well reviewed poverty monitor thats enough, im not hoping for them to get massively cheaper

Just adds more confusion for the scheduler

I don't even think that the e-cores are that bad since they're on the same ring bus. But the lpe cores have got to go

>>107026502
Anyone here using Ryzen 9900x? Is it normal to get 50ºC idle on a 20ºC room on these things?

>>107032743
you put in the fridge for at least 20 mins and only take it out when you're absolutely ready to apply. it will be a hard pad for at least 5 mins until it starts melting like ice cream. its hard to remove the plastic tape once it starts melting.

>>107032757
9950x3d at idle is reporting Tctl at around 50, but the ccds are at ~35c

>>107032770
I did that and still managed to fuck it up... how long until I need to replace a kryosheet in comparison?

When do you think the RAM shit will end. (If ever.)

>>107032787
tomorrow anon

>>107032757
50°C idle is normal because the hotspot is on the IO die and that part never goes to sleep.
If you have EXPO enabled, you most likely have VSOC set to 1.3V this is the most likely reason for higher power draw in idle.
Nothing to worry about.

>>107032776
I don't understand, what's the difference? My last CPU would idle at 35ºC and 50ºC seems to high, I'm afraid I did something wrong...

It depends on what you put it on. The higher the heat load the faster its gonna degrade. A 65W ryzen CPU? maybe its entire life. a 500W RTX card? probably 2 years.

>>107032804
Completely normal, tctl is the highest temperature measured on the chip.
At idle its the IOD, at higher loads its the CCDs

thx famalams
I was worried because I set the max temp in the BIOS to 85ºC but since the idle temp is so high there's not a lot of headroom, plus this thing jumps to 65ºC the moment I do something small like open a folder in explorer. And yes, I enabled EXPO so that my ram runs at 6000 CL30.

I truly hope that the thermal pads tech takes a leap soon before my next pc
