Has theres been a person who goes "Im into gaming and pc graphics" who simultaneously doesn't care about nvidia featureset.
It seems weird to go invest into a gaming pc and ending up with an amd gpu, like what are you doing with your life.

basically, nvidia gives free videocards to influencers, and so zoomies think the 5070 is worth buying. but of course the influencer gets free stuff worth hundreds of dollars, so they will push nvidia.

nvidia is broadly a consumer scam. while xx90 and xx80 have long been quite powerful, the rest of the lineup has massive cost savings, essentially they are selling garbage.

I refuse to allow the idea that upscaling is good for the gamer.

jagged lines put hair on your chest.

also, pop-up makes motion more obvious at a distance than doubling the resolution would. eg the enemy walks over a featureless crest.

>>109433399
(me)

but the really big problem with ai features is they lull you into thinking your game is *that* when actually your resolution or framerate is actually much lower. So you will think you are being robbed, or that people are hacking (why couldn't you see them???!) well, this is all because you used ai to gloss over the raw facts of your actual game state.

ofc games also lie to you with network code, but why add another liar to the mix?

They're visibly struggling because they know they cant offend people for their purchasing decision, monopoly is inherently bad for their hobby so they have to maintain the idea that amd is a fine choice.
At the same time they're admitting one company has been much better for features and support and they're not buying the other companys products for themselves or their family.

>720/1080p video feeds now scale super nicely to my 4K TV

Nvidia really are the kings of tech and features. If you've ever used lossless scaling to upscale video, this is a whole other level of quality.

Are there any anons here who moved from 3840x2160p displays to ultrawide 3440x1440p monitors? How is that like, really? I'm pretty used to daily-driving my 32" 2160P IPS monitor, but I'm intrigued by the prospect of more recent tandem OLED 21:9 ultrawides. Most of the games I play would be compatible, and the res would be easier to run too. Though, I really can't tell how much I'd miss the crisp PPI of my current display. I used to run 1440p on another cheap LCD, but it's been so long that I don't know if it'd feel 'bad' or not to switch back down. I just got my current 2160p monitor ages ago for crisper text clarity, but that's not a strict necessity for my workflow anymore.

>>109433875
>>720/1080p video feeds now scale super nicely to my 4K TV
What kind of dog shit IPTV service doesn't transmit in 4k.

>>109433902
Depends on the feed. My service has 4k channels but some of the live event streams are 720p or 1080p unless I can find a specific channel streaming it in 4k. This RTX VSR implementation covers all possible scenarios for me now. If I can find a 4K stream then great, if I cant then j still get great AI upscaling to 4k.

It's fine, a B-tier PSU (very good / best value) according to a reliable PSU reviewer.
https://hwbusters.com/best_picks/best-atxv3-pcie5-ready-psus-picks-hardware-busters/

>what is the best way to check if I have a warranty on corsair PSU assuming it is damaged.
You need to identify the exact model of your Corsair PSU (ex. RM750e) to know whether you unit is within the coverage period.
Some cheaper PSUs come with five or seven year warranties.
After that, you go through the entire RMA application, get ready to take photos of the PSU that shoes the product model & serial number.

I just like the idea of everything being tied into one interface but you're probably right. The mic quality will probably be better if I get a separate interface.

Eh, from what I can tell, while SBX is nice, you can do the same thing for free with HeSuVi, the Scout mode is very niche, and with my CPU it's unlikely I'm really gonna be hurting for things to be like "oh yeah I definitely want hardware to handle that." It's still probably a perfectly good DAC/AMP but I already have an SMSL C200. I guess all that's left is to get an inline preamp for my SM58 and decide on what XLR-USB interface to get.

I want to build a linux server that can run vanilla minecraft so my kids and their friends can play on it. I expect 2-5 players at most. What kind of hardware do I actually need?

>>109434540
doubt you need more than a core2duo.

>>109434540
put more money towards a fast cpu and skimp on the gpu
something like a 9850x3d / 9950x3d plus a midrange rtx4060ti should be good

Hey /g/uise replying from the last thread about my PSU.
Unfortunately I couldn't find something above the RM1000x (the ATX 3.1 version) that would fit my budget and would arrive within the next week so I went with that option since I need my PC for work.
I would have prefered the 1200x version but I guess that I rarely use my 4090 at max load anyways.
Of course, I got myself a powersurge rated at 2000VA/2000W from a trusted brand.
I'm scared shitless about any of my other components being fucked by the thunderstorm so I'm a bit anxious right now but I've checked the pins and there's no damage or any ozone/burned smell so it should be ok, anyways, thanks for the help.

>>109435108

What's a good or even better equivalent that provides the same wattage?
Also thanks for the advice on corsair PSUs. Are Corsair PSUs actually good and I just got a bad one?

I have an interest in MAG A1200PLS because it offers this safeguard thing for GPUs. I'm not sure if that is a genuine advertising point.
I'd love for maybe a better option(s) with the same features as the MAG advertises. But also with good warranties and return chances.

>>109435137
Actually yeah, it's an ASUS TUF
Do you say this because of the PSU I ordered or because of what has been happening?

alpha omega semiconductor (AOZ) is just a long time dealer of the worst bargain bin powerstages that fail in a way that kills gpu chips. its often found on brands that cut corners like gigabyte, zotac, palit etc.
heck, even Galax uses AOZ for the vram power rail on their crazy premium 4090 HOF which defeats the purpose of having a reliable extreme OC board

QD OLED has been superior to WOLED from the moment it came out, only thing WOLED had going for it was peak brightness but QD OLED is starting to catch up to them even on that. I remember looking at a QD OLED and a WOLED in the store and even with the bright lights I could see that WOLED was inferior.

>>109435194
Yeah, just searched the term and I'm super glad that I went with the ASUS one when it was released.
I live in the middle of the woods living the hermit life and the electricity here is insane. About a year ago, it fried some of my music production equipment (my synths are all fucked up, specially the knobs feelsbadman), even with good voltage regulators and whatnot.
Honestly I'm impressed that my the 4090 has survived for so long. One day around 2 years ago I had a specially bad thunderstorm and even an old lightbulb exploded and my PC started having hard graphic glitches. I thought I was toast but I acted quickly and somehow my GPU was normal after I turned my PC on a few hours later.
I guess I'll have to wait for next week to see what happened.

>>109435222
Nvidia is not abandoning 12VHPWR because their cards look better with 1 connector instead of needing to use 4+ 8 pin connectors. Their fans prefer it too since it's easier to install with only one cable.

>>109435226
yeah, qdoled has higher brightness levels on their rgb stripe versus lg's rgb striped woleds
the only thing that's better on woled is their lower ambient light reflectivity

that is HUGE for amd. Tom thinks that going forward, the unified architecture will let AMD produce big gpu dies every single generation since it'll be funded by workstations/datacentres where any unsold yields can be rebranded as a productivity card.
Simply put, there won't be any generations like polaris, rdna1 or rdna4 without a highend gpu anymore if their strategy holds

>>109435279
Only reason rdna4 didn't have a high end card was because their GPU chiplet design didn't work out like they wanted with rdna3 so they had to switch back to monolithic design and could only do 2 dies, a low end and a midbtier one.

Can you fine /g/entlemen recommend me a good gaming monitor for under 180 Canadian leafbucks?

Also are large desktop mouse pads really a good thing?
I bought a small desk for my small room so the desk space is gonna make things a bit awkward to balance fitting the pad on the computer desk's top and also fitting the monitor on the desk behind it as I think the stands aren't supposed to be balanced on the large desk covering mousepads.

memory temps on my 9070 XT are alright but apparently that's due to Samsung GGDR6 clocking worse, which would make your assertion correct

Might get this bundle for a sff case, aio cooler, and 850w power supply. Can I get a recommendation on a CPU + mobo? I have 16 GB of ddr4 and a 4060ti 16gb but I'm willing to buy ddr5.

>>109436247
The g7 chips on the 5070ti is running a factory downclock so it's one of the cooler running vram chips
They're really designed for 32gbps but down binned by Samsung to 28gbps for yields but most of them do 32-34gbps without issues

>>109436271
I can push it to 32-33 gbps and gain fuckall in framerate at native 4k
maybe 1-3 fps at best kek

>>109436286
5070ti is the least bandwidth starved card of the Blackwell family
Based on the ratio of cuda cores to memory bandwidth, I'd think that the 5090 (and maybe 5080) would gain more from vram OC

Which maker's 9070XT should I go for if my priorities are 1. Low noise 2. Low temp 3. Performance (I don't really care that much about a few extra frames on an already performant card). I see the Asrock Taichi is supposedly a cool and quiet one but it also has the dreaded cable melting connector instead of 3x8pin so I am hesitant.

I regret buying a 5080 the GeForce Nvidia drivers suck

>>109436546
Am on Linux but I still am waffling because CUDA>ROCM, NVENC>VCN, DLSS>FSR (this last one is pretty close now actually).
I'll probably just get AMD though for pure performance per buck and kernel level support. A lot of stores near me have like a million Nvidia GPUs in stock and AMD is like "we can order this shit it might take two weeks idk lol". Says a lot about how close to a monopoly Nvidia is now.

Mobo is a matter of what you features you want out of it: wifi, number of m.2 slots, number of usb ports, etc.
Do a quick google to see if can overheat / has a weak vrm. That's probably the only real concern.

If amd then 5700x3d or 5800x3d. Need the x3d for the chip to touch entry-level am5 system performance.

If intel then 12th, 13th, or 14th gen. Not the 14900 or 14700 though because of cpu degradation issues.

personaly no matter how it works or if it works as intended having a random ticking timer when your monitor decides to shut off does not sit right with me

no timebomb timer
but this is what consoomers think is ok

and most alot montiors still have the 16 hour one AND It's buggy on top. meaning the timer does not reset or trigger during stand by which means it's just on a random timebomb loop

Manufacturing realities.
It would be retarded to have PHYs and scalers that need to support 48gbps or even 80gbps when the display itself doesn't need it but you still want features like VRR.
The decoupling kinda needed to happen because newer HDMI/DP revisions introduce so much more than just bandwidth improvements.
This wasn't an issue previously because if a display didn't need high bandwidth you'd just use an earlier revision and you didn't miss out on anything.

It does mean that manufacturers can dumb down bandwidth support but that's more on the manufacturers than the specifications.

>>109437112
does anything even support 6k? Websites already shit themselves at 21:9.

>>109437150
that makes sense but they should version their stuff better

keep in mind that visually lossless is marketing term and dsc lowers your image quality and there is content and scenes where it is noticeable
it is funny that there are autists that care about every last nit or % of color and then dont care about losing it because of compression

>In actual studies there are consistently participants that can identify DSC in comparisons every time or almost every time.

the worst thing about it is that since the compression ratio is variable, it means that the delay it adds in processing is also variable which may cause judder/uneven frame pacing at the monitor side

>>109437228
true but at least this is (can be) partly offset by higher hz/fps as test results show
also it causes various handshake issues and multimonitor issues
that said it might be worth for some people, but marketing makes it look like there are no downsides

When I have DSC on the desktop looks fake like images look softer and low quality. Color & monitor settings are exactly the same but the display goes from looking through a window to looking at a stream if that makes sense.

only CONSPIRACY THEORISTS will question the effects of DSC
don't listen to those nutters

>>109437276
It takes longer for the image to output on screen due to the GPU holding up the chain. For low fps stuff it doesn't matter but when you're operating at 280-360+hz you start to notice how fake it is.

AMD is the cope solution in the realm of AI.
It's only good for gaming and that's if you're lucky.
Sell it or return it and buy a 5070 Ti.

I couldn't give a shit about RT. Like less than 5% of total games have it. From DirectX8 to 11 none have it and these games are still played today.

It goes deeper than that bro
The scripts 99% of optometrists write are for people who aren't that bad off and the other 1% is for people who just happen to have extreme refractive errors.

Anything more than that and the industry is quite useless to you. Quite surprising and infuriating once you realize it.

for a native signal its faster for your monitor to process it than your gpu. for a non native signal its faster for your gpu to process it than your monitor.

says nothing if it's relevant at all or not

the only time I've noticed DSC being different is when you change refresh rate or when some ancient game uses real fullscreen and it takes bazillion years for the monitor to display image

many such things

Microcenter bundles or their PowerSpec prebuilts.
Retailers will have to cut down on future shipments because the PC building market is shrinking.

Speaking of Newegg, the official Club 3D marketplace is selling their 2 meter DP80 cable for just $30 (free shipping).
People who need a 2 meter DP cable might as well buy this one to future-proof.

NVIDIA Display Stream Compression (DSC) issues include long black screen delays when alt-tabbing from full-screen games, blocked DSR/DLDSR downsampling support, and occasional multi-monitor signal drops or sleep-wake failures.

>>109438508
5000 series updated the display controller so it's not cucked anymore

Everybody talks about how insane HDR is, the difference for me seems subtle at best, though noticeable.

I just don't get it.

>>109438544
lmao no I still had issues with my secondary monitor having DSC

>>109438577
The vast majority of HDR-"capable" monitors and TVs don't do HDR correctly/well enough.

>>109438595
I have pretty top-of-line QD-OLEDs, just that while I think it looks strictly better, I'm not seeing this "wow this changed my life" kinda shit everyone else seems to be losing their shit about.

>>109438602
someone will now tell you that QD-OLED doesn't have enough nits for true HDR and you should get something else. If you get something else then and it's still not impressive it's either the implementation that doesn't work correctly with a list of things you have to do to get the true experience or you should have bought something something else.

Is it possible to tamper with ssd firmware and change the uptime values? I found an used ssd listing that claims 580 boots over only 85 hours

>>109438544
no its still fucked. the downside of fixed function hardware is driver updates cant fix it. it has to be fixed while they're making the die. like how rdna3.5 exists to fix rdna3.

>>109437662
the new AMD cards are less than garbage, their stack is Literally incapable of dealing with anything cool that is coming, is why you have the resdient schizo spamming about drivers issue and trying to trick anons into buying their hardware.

that's why you gotta buy an oled tv, even a C series 42" is twice as bright as the best oled monitors and thats not even good
buy a top end tv G6 or S95 S99H
it really is that simple

nothing to do with qdoleds monitors are just nerfed too hard and power limited

>>109438681
they improved the single display head limit so dsc and upscaling works tho literally half the things he said is improved or fixed

Anyone else worried about the PS6 coming out and suddenly all games absolutely require 16GB of VRAM or more to play at 1440p High settings? I swear I fucking screwed myself by being a cheapfag and getting the 5070 instead of the 5070 Ti.
>bro your shit ass CPU?
I can always buy an X3D, they're not THAT expensive compared to GPUs or RAM.
>bro your 9070 XT?

The HDR quality bottleneck is usually caused by the source media after you properly set up a decent miniLED or OLED display.
Games are authored for SDR first, most of the game studios treat HDR as a post-processed feature which turn out poorly.
These HDR implementations need to be fixed with mods like RenoDX.

Prestige streaming series are produced in native HDR first.
Use an Apple TV trial to watch Slow Horses if you have a good HDR display (preferably with Dolby Vision).
S2 E1 or 2 has some scenes of a guy biking around London during a sunny day, you can see how well the HDR is handled.

What of all the fags with 8GB GPUs? If I'm screwed at 12GB, do they just lose human rights for buying a 5060 or keeping their old 3070, or what?
It's not like 6GB GPUs became obsolete overnight, the 1060 and 1660/Super could run a bunch of shit fine as recently as 2022-2023.

>>109439219
No, the game industry can't afford to price out more customers. The step up to the PS5 caused enough buyer attrition.
Video games are a mass market product, console game development business model collapses if it continues to price out middle class players.
Online game devs need the whales, the RMT/MTX whales need the frugal audience for their self-esteem.

Game devs are headed the other direction; they're trying to port their games to the Switch 2.

>>109439520
have you seen the ports? SF6 upscales from 360p to 720p in portable and 520p to 1080p in docked mode.

>>109439518
You'll probably still be able to run shit at low settings,but you've been told for 2 generations now that new features(dlss, framegen, ai, ray tracing) all need more vram and you should aim for 16gb minimum.

>>109439549
>16gb minimum
Has nobody stopped to think that spending 1000 bucks on a GPU alone (5070 Ti) is a bit ridiculous?

>>109439545
If SF6 is running at a smooth 60 fps at the Switch 2 hardware specs, it's a win.
Switch 2 is still the highest selling console since its release.

>>109439545
either a skill issue or ueslop

>>109439580
>1000 bucks on a GPU alone (5070 Ti)
That's only due to RAM prices going apeshit, realistically both the 5070ti and 9070xt would be below MSRP by now and you could get either of them by around $600-700.

>>109439608
No it's the hardware limitations of the switch2, most game studios are making games for current/next gen PC hardware while the switch is using last gen hardware.
