This isn't quite the ideal thread for this, but there's not really an obvious better option:Does anybody know anything about MST hubs?I have two monitors, but I don't wanna have two cables running from my laptop to both displays, and would rather have a single cable going from my laptop to a hub, and then a displayport (or USB C to displayport) cable from the hub to monitor A, and a HDMI cable from the hub to monitor BIs that possible? I looked at some hubs on Amazon but I didn't see any that seem to have both Displayport/USB C and HDMI outsIn general I can't find much info about MST hubs and I'd rather find someone or a guide that explains what to look for or avoid with them rather then just buying one at random

>>109825951there is even a vram fix on linux for any gpu that uses the mesa driver. it basically gives all the vram to the game and offloads everything like the desktop and browser that may run in the background into swap. leaving more usable vram for the game. it works trough the desktop and c groups. ofc only possible on linux and with mesa compatible hardware.

I've ordered the MSI MAG 272QP QD OLED X24 but found it it isn't TB400 certified. Should I return it?
Finally bought my own big rig recently. Has an XL sized sleeper cab that'll allow me proper room for gaming on the go. I play single player games 99% of the time and have been on the fence about building a PC or just buying a gaming laptop.>inb4 gaming laptopI know I know, but it would make things far more convenient. Power efficiency is a real concern of mine as well as reliability. Would I be better off building a lower power PC or just getting a laptop from a company like Sager? Are laptop "RTX 5070's" actual 5070s or just vastly cut down ones? I was looking to build something with the 7800X3D in it and a 9070 GRE, downclocking it all. Would have to be an ITX build.
>>109826588just get a laptop nigga having a pc in a setup like that is incovenient af. also no the laptop 5070 is not a desktop 5070, i would push for a laptop 5070ti at the very least for the extra vram. this video has more benchmarks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EN7aGYNvZx0&t=730s
which hdr mode is better true black 400 or peak 1000?
>>109826572>SDR: 200>HDR: 400 (Typ.) It has the lower bin panel, the costlier QD-OLED monitors can guarantee at least 250 nits maximum SDR brightness.The official spec sheet is claiming it can't guarantee all panels can't hit 400 nits peak brightness with HDR enabled, but most can (typical peak HDR brightness).https://www.msi.com/Monitor/MAG-272QP-QD-OLED-X24/SpecificationYou should read the store's monitor return policy carefully before you unbox the monitor (restocking fee etc.)The brightness specs don't matter too much if you usually keep SDR brightness near 100~150 nits.
Found out my PC was randomly restarting with a kernel power 41 error because of a faulty CPU. Serves me right to buy one from a physical store. Just bought the same model online and haven’t experienced any random restarts for 3 days. It’s too bad I didn’t try this 4 months ago. So much potential gaming time has been lost, and I won’t be able to spend much time on it now that college started again.
>>109826649Peak 1000 gets brighter highlights like explosions or sun glares, but it can artificially brighten dark scenes.True Black 400 prioritizes accurately displaying dark scenes, but highlights won't be as bright (400 vs 1K nits peak highlight). True Black 400 tracks the industry-standard PQ (Perceptual Quantizer) reference curve with higher accuracy in dark-to-mid tones, ensuring shadow detail isn't crushed or unnaturally boosted.Try out both and pick whichever you prefer.Monitor Unboxed HDR performance review section covers this stuff.
>>109826626Looking at pic related. Hoping the cooling system is actually up to snuff. I figured I was going to have to spend $150k on a semi truck of my own and it came in under $86k by buying from a friend of a friend of a co-workers brother, so I figure inflated gaming laptop prices aren't a huge deal. Wish me luck.
>>109826690Did you get a refund on the faulty CPU?
>>109826505>Convince me not to buy an UW oled monitorI will notthere are no ones that are better than a qdoled>>109826649both are mid, buy a tvif you ask about hdr, just buy a tv(no im not kidding)
>>109826709Ive never heard of that brand but apparently they work with Clevo so its definitely at least a real company. If i was spending that much on a laptop id make sure the after sales support is good, lenovo/dell usually the best with that stuff. Good luck.
>>109826505i missed the not well thats pretty easy
>>109826746Yeah Sager is basically Clevo in the US. They use basic Clevo chassis and are very plain compared to companies like Alienware for instance. My buddy has a very basic Sager with an RTX 3050 Ti in it he bought years ago that is still going at 100% with no downsides or problems so far and he's been using it for gaming and actual school work. That was only a $1500 laptop then, so surely a laptop 4 times more expensive is just as reliable? We'll find out.
>>109826658Yeah if I want to return it I'll just let the monitor at the pick up point until it's resent to them. I actually usually keep the brightness very low, in that case does the HDR peak brightness specs matters?
>>109826721Not yet. My second CPU is still within the refund window, so I can still send it back or keep it depending on whether AMD gives me a refund or a replacement part.
>>109826792>in that case does the HDR peak brightness specs matters?That monitor appears to not support Peak 1000 nits HDR mode, so maximum HDR brightness will be capped to 400 nits.I'd only keep the monitor if you got it at a really nice discount.Return it if you spent a decent chunk of money.It's not "bad", but it's hard to say whether you'll be fine with the HDR 400 nits brightness cap without seeing it for yourself.I use TB400 for HDR but many other ppl, including Monitor Unboxed Tim, prefer the peak 1000 option.The monitor is TB400 certified, at least MSI's official store page claims it.https://us-store.msi.com/MAG-272QP-QD-OLED-X24
Lmao are they serious??????5080 standalone or whole ass PC with 5070ti + games
>>109826941the white man picks the 5080 btw
>>109826941when GPUs are prices this shitty they just end up selling more shitty prebuilts these companies never lose
>>109826963If you sell all the parts of the prebuilt individually you make more than what you spent.
>>109826941A 265K/5070TI system should cost around $1700 btw
>>109826987SSDs & DDR5 make it way more expensive
>>109826878It was a really good discount to be honest, in fact this monitor has never been cheaper, but at the same time for only 45eur more I could have the X28 version with a higher refresh rate and all the proper certifications including 1000 peak brightness. I wish buying monitors wasn't so fucking confusing. About the TB400 certification, I've seen a lot of people claim it's not, on multiple seller pages it's not mentioned, and the specification PDF does not mention it either compare to the X28. I don't mind paying more, and was also considering 4K monitors or 4th gen QHD ones.
>>109826941I knew I recognized that buildI guess it sold out lol
>>109826987at 5070ti is like $1200 by itself

>>109827144can't get worse
>>109827158i know a few ways it could get worse
>>109827158
replaced my 9070xt with a rtx5080 and got a good boost in performance
>>109825628AC6 is one of the few games that really looks good in HDR.AC6 is also one of the very few games that know how to automatically enable HDR on launch and reset to previous OS state on exit.
>>109827168Well, yeah. It's like twice the FPS in a lot of games.Getting a 9070XT over a 5080 when it was at MSRP was King Retard shit, now it's more understandable given the gap.
>>109827168this is a paid post
>>109827186i got lucky with selling my 9070xt and buying the rtx 5080 cheap from the store >>109827194what
>>109827158just hope dxvk will be ready for it
>>109827150So even something more expensive can technically be worse or useless?But yeah that's the problem, I'm not even sure what I want or need, just wanted a better monitor than my IPS.
>>109827194Novida is looking desperate lately
>>109827339Paying 45 EUR more for the guaranteed TB 400 certification is worth it, even if you find the 1K Peak HDR mode to be a meme.At least read the conclusion of the TFT article I linked (full screen content can be overall dimmer in 1K Peak mode vs stable TB 400 HDR).The faster refresh rate might be worth something as well if you play online shooters.
I just realized something ridiculous.I could sell my used RTX 3090 and 64GB of 128GB DDR4 ram to upgrade to a brand new RTX 5080 and have a little leftover cash.I skip all the risk of a failing card and get a performance uplift, isn't this a no brainer?What do I fail to see for 4k144hz ?
downgrade to a brand new RTX 5080*
>>109826941Afrimericans might get a 5000 cuck e cheese bribe from orange man soon so theyre getting ready to collect, those retards will absolutely use it to buy trash and thats a good thing
>>109827438I mean, yeah. You could do that.You'd get a performance boost and probably wouldn't notice the RAM difference. But, you could also just sell the 64GB and keep the cash.
>>109827438How are you going to run big MoEs without 128GB RAM?
>>109827511Sure, currently I'm not that strapped for cash.I just don't want to keep on carrying the risk of hardware failure during the current prices.>>109827540I bought 128GB for 200€ just to experiment anyway. 4 tk/s is way too slow for my taste. 20€ subscription is more than enough for me.As for the VRAM loss, it'll be fine, probably. Ultra video settings are overrated imo.

>>109827425>full screen content can be overall dimmer in 1K Peak mode vs stable TB 400 HDR Yeah I read the full article, and considering I usually turn my brightness very low, I probably won't enjoy or need 1k peak mode.

Just installed a 5800x3d to replace a 3900x, and I'm having trouble figuring out what's normal for the hotter chip, and what might be me fucking up the thermal paste or the cpu cooler being too loose. (NH-D15S, Arctic) Or maybe some kind of fault/defect.CPU usage % always seems a lot higher than the 3900x, obviously because it only has 2/3 of the cores, or is this is a "positive" result of the 5800X3D taking up more tasks due to being moderately faster and having the X3D features? It seems to spike a lot in certain uses, and plateau at a level that I literally never saw with the 3900x even in stress tests. For instance, with a low-speed fan curve the HWinfo stress test would get the 3900x to around 79C, cinebench something similar. In HWinfo the 5800X3D with the same fan curve seems unworkable at 86C. I didn't work out an ideal fan curve for the 5800X3D because I'm worried it's not working as intended, but with CPU and case fans at 100% (not a long-term solution), it's stable at 75C, still a few C hotter than 3900X would be, but expected.In-game performance is peculiar - when loading games it spikes up over 80C and if I have a youtube video in a browser it glitches out with crackling pauses. Is that normal in a core-limited scenario or is this CPU weird in throwing all its multi-core attention at games?In 3D games (SM2, 2077, RDR2) it seems hotter but relatively moderate at the high 60s, but in CPU-heavy games like EU5 it spikes over 82 regularly and the steady state is 75C (admittedly this was observer mode testing max speed, but slowing it down didn't change much).The 3900X typically was in the 60s when gaming, worst case ~74C in a heatwaveIdle temperatures are reasonable - it gets as low as 43C when nothing is happening, maybe spikes to 60-65 when web browsing. Wattage doesn't seem particularly high when drawing these temperatures, worst I've seen is 125, but it gets in the 70s C when it's barely 80W, and 105W spikes it over 80C

>>109827938yeah anon is retarded it's called mass loaded vinyl or mlv for short, both terms usually pull up what you want
>>109827945Could be that, I remember it having a more scientific name though.
>>109827940If you use Ryzen + Windows you have to learn how to use process lasso or task manager, else you get all these problems.For starters unblock your browser and/or games from core 0. That will solve all the stuttering.Temperature is normal the L3 cache sits ontop of the CPU cores acting like a heat layer. They changed it with 9000 series where it sits at the bottom.
>>109827983My 9700x never stutters whereas my previous intel desktop stuttered a lot, it was bad, the sound got distorted, every intel cpu ive had did that
>>109827940AMD's thermals are kinda just dog shit across the board.They use cheap IHSs and it completely nukes the thermal performance. Your only real solution is to either delid it, or accept that the thermals are bad-but-not-overheating. They run fine, it's not going to thermal throttle unless you use a tiny cooler, but the number is just higher than it really should be for what they are.
>>109827997Not every machine is the same. One may have high DPC Realtek/Razer/Shitty SSD.
>>109828004It happened on a quad core on windows 7, had a soundcard, happened on two different desktops including the last intel one i7 7700, intel is just shit
>>109827882Drill a hole in your wall and put fiver optic cables through it and keep your PC in a different room.
>>109827871AIOs don't last forever. The liquid volume decreases over time due to permeation even if the pump continues to work.Keep the D15 G2, that thing is supposed to easily last you over 10 years.
>>109827938>It's not foam though, it's very solid.Yeah, because most case makers (Fractal, Cooler Master) use the cheapest possible panels that don't actually dampen any sound. Be Quiet has the Silent Base series which has actual thick dampeners and a custom side panel that curves on the top panel which also helps blocking noise.>>109827945Mass loaded vinyl is the outer most layer you put on soundproofed walls, on top of layers of fiberglass or foam or wool that actually absorb most sound. It's the same concept as snow creating dead quiet in the winter: all the small empty pockets in a semirandom structure will dampen the amount of movement the air can do, hence silence.
>>109828024The last time I was on Intel was sandy bridge and it was the smoothest platform ever. I pushed the chip to 5.4ghz and it was happy not a single crash or weirdness.
>>109828031I know that be quiet! AIOs have a port that let's you put new water in them.

>>109827983>For starters unblock your browser and/or games from core 0. That will solve all the stuttering.I haven't heard of that, I'll look into it, thanks.>Temperature is normal the L3 cache sits ontop of the CPU cores acting like a heat layerYeah, that was really apparent in HWinfo, the L3 cache temperature was up to 20C cooler than the CPU cores. And the Tctl/Tdie was always around five or up to ten C hotter than the cores.>>109828001>or accept that the thermals are bad-but-not-overheatingI'll see how it goes in actual use before trying to repaste it a third time, having made a bit of a mess with it (the pictures on the Arctic website showed a lot more than is needed). I was a bit spoiled by how little fan noise the 3900X needed (it would have been even less on a 3700X), so getting used to a hot CPU will be a new experience for me (apart from back in the day when I knew nothing about computers and the noise they made brought a positive Pavlovian response). Tuning the fans will be a hassle, I might set it to a continuous moderate speed instead of spiking when the CPU is going crazy.I did notice HWinfo never said it was thermal throttling, though with how PBO works it probably does self-limit in the 80s. Its clock speeds go all over the place compared to the 3900X where it spun up and then stayed relatively steady according to the demands of the game.I don't think there's any stuttering within games, it was only starving the web browser that annoyed me. The brief period of running games for fifteen minutes at a time seemed to suggest the performance was where it should be - space marine 2 was night and day, no stuttering/framedrops.I'd be curious to hear from anyone who went from a 5800X3D to a 9800X3D if they've ironed all this out.

no really.

>>109828584it's not that you have bad dreams when you try to go back to sleep, it's that you always have bad dreams but when you go to sleep like that you don't complete a full REM cycle and your brain doesn't offload the dream, so you remember it when you wake up.

just came to get some advice on how to fix a problem.so i bought a USB DAC amp for my IEMs and they worked well on my phone.so i tried using it on my PC and i hear this popping/distorted noise when i play games or click through a video on youtube.i tried all the bullshit solutions I've seen and went as far as reinstalling windows to see if that did anything and it did nothing.did anyone else have this problem?and if you did do you have a solution.just so you can understand i'll just give a scenario:I played Euro Truck and turned the radio on to listen to music, while i'm driving i hear random pops in the audio that happens for like 0.5 seconds then audio goes back to normal. and it happens a few more times while driving and even if i parked the truck.
>>109828097but i have a nas also nases need IO for many hdds how can it be perfect for one? usb?!?
>>109828681What does this mean, how would I check for it, and what should I do about it? The CPU is stock, the RAM is 3600mhz on XMP.What I mean by crackling is that if I have a youtube video in the browser, and then something else pushes CPU usage to a high usage, the video just shits the bed and stutters. This seems reproducible, eg: running a youtube video and then starting the HWinfo cpu stress test, though I also noticed it when loading up EU5. It stops as soon as I stop the CPU-stressing programme. It doesn't seem to produce a WHEA error in HWinfo or event viewer.
>>109828851Try tuning vsoc down

So, I need to pull the trigger tonight so I dont spend the weekend on HDD lelAt basically the same price right now at 1TB>SD ADATA Legend 900 PRO 4.0>SSD Acer Predator GM9 5.0I should get the Acer Predator right?there's other 3 5.0 options from a brand "Biwin" that i've never hear about so...
>>109828685the nvidia overall package experience that doesnt happen on amd because they have fixed it a hw level.
in the market for an oled monitor. cheapest I found was an Acer Predator X27U W1 for $315. reviews for it are practically non-existent but then again its acer. all the budget oled monitors are $350 currently and I don't want to spend more than that. any input would be nice on what's the best bang for buck currently.
>>109828857Is there a guide or pointers you'd recommend on overclocking/undervolting the 5800x3d, or whatever else can be done that is useful? I was kind of hoping this would "just work", though I have heard that people like to undervolt it because AMD released it with very strict settings. I think my MSI motherboard has Kombo Strike, which is a BIOS setting that would more or less automatically undervolt the CPU, if I understand correctly?
>>109828888QUADSNvidia drivers suck ass
Recently bought an Intel Arc B580 as a backup in case current gpu bites the dust. Installed it in my system (i7-12700k, 32GB ram ddr4, CachyOS) and was shocked at how well it performed. It easily averaged 60 fps (45 fps 1% lows) Helldivers 2, 1440p, medium/high settings, no anti-aliasing, native (no upscaling). It is a genuine steal for $250. I get that it is considered a meme card but maybe that is in the past now with the matured drivers.
>>109828910There's like zero benchmarks for it because all the dumb tech reviewers did it at release when it had no drivers and torpedo'd it right out the gate.
>>109828763>USB DAC amp.on windows, your fix may involve zadig
>>109828910well yeah its linux. open source gets shit done way better than closed source. 7900XTX on linux is faster than 5090 on Windows and this isn't just some cope shit its actual backed by CS2 data.

I get the sense that could be like >>109827983 said, a software issue, where the web browser gets sidelined undesirably when more demanding programs want all 8 cores.I'll return the CPU to the factory stock settings to get used to those and see that it works, it was mostly the temperature that had me worried, but if it wants to run in the high 70s or even mid 80s instead of the low 70s, I'll just let it and have my fans faster.Thanks for the inputs.

>>109829350my dude, the processes tab in the program literally tells you whats causing all the hard faults.its when something cant be found in ram and has to access the drive. excessive hard faults means the cpu/ram is basically locked down as its searching from disk.

>>109831768I already told you before that using both 6+2 pin power connectors of the pig-tailed cable is safe for that Sama G- PSU.Higher end PSUs (that Sama G- is A- tier) PCIe cables are most likely spec'd to safely deliver up to 300W (or more accurately 25A) per 8 pin PCIe connection.http://jongerow.com/PCIe/index.htmlThe important distinction is to use at least two separate 6+2 cables>GPU with 3x 8pin PCIe power headers: One 6+2 cable + both connectors of the pig-tailed cable (if higher end PSU)>GPU with 2x 8pin power connection: One 6+2 cable + one connector of the pig-tailed cable (not single pigtailed in this instance).>GPU with 3× 8-Pin Headers ( 300W+)Use at least two separate physical cable runs from the PSU.One dedicated single-connector 6+2 cableOne pigtail cable (using both of its GPU-side 6+2 connectors, assuming your PSU isn't garbage)>GPU with 2× 8-Pin Headers (300W or lower)Use two separate, single power cables if your PSU provides them, or one single cable + one power connector of a pigtail cable.

I want to pirate games. I don't exactly 100% trust the Denuvo hypervisor crack so I was thinking about building a dedicated, offline, PC just to play games. But computer parts are so expensive right now. While I do have the money and I can spend $3k-4k CAD on a new PC I wanted to ask this first.Is playing modern games on a SATA SSD really bad? The PS4 uses SATA SSD and I actually didn't mind the speed. If possible I'd also like to put the OS on the SSD so I don't have to buy an NVMe just for the OS and a SATA SSD for my games.
>>109833257>Is playing modern games on a SATA SSD really bad?It's fine for most games. A handful of new titles leverage NVMe SSD's faster loading, but NVMe storage aren't a strict requirement for these games.But I'd expect GTA6 to run much better on an NVMe drive.
>>109833257it's fine it's just not worth penny pinching over 30 bucks at most
>>109833194>I am smart everyone else is retardedPlausible theory but seems unlikely when every techtuber is burning theirs upis everyone retarded? could be
>>109833257>I want to pirate gameswhy, there aren't even enough games to buy to warrant thaton top of that dealing with all the update mess if you are too poor to buy games you are probably too poor to actually play games and own a pc toounless the game is delisted and the only viable option is to get it that way or emulationpirating is aids unless the game is abandonware and finished at that point
>>109833293>unlikely when every techtuber is burning theirs upExcept these content creators have a financial incentive melt these connectors.HW Unboxed Steve literally admitted he's been trying for years to cause the 12+4 connector to melt.Jayz2cents Astral connector melted when he was running the card way out of spec (over 1000W power draw) to break personal OC records, and he had the decency to admit it.
>>109833318>if you are too poor to buy games you are probably too poor to actually play games and own a pc tooI'm not spending $120 on one video game. And I already said, I have the money to build a new PC but I want to avoid it.>>109833278I already have a couple 2TB SATA SSDs. I just have to take them out of some miniPCs and put it on my PC. I don't really need to buy anything.>>109833274Is there an article on how much faster NVMes are compared to SATA SSD when playing games only?
how do i even sell my 5090 without getting ripped off

>>109833408Everything because CAD -> USD is shit right now.
>>109833408I pointed out your premise is false, since there's plenty of techtubers willing to make content ($$$) out of melting connectors.Gamers Nexus' video on this topic showed they had to set their 4090 FE connector extremely loose to start a melt on theirs.The truth is always in the middle.

>>109833436>to start a melt on theirs.If they did it on purpose for testing it also does not count
>>109833140I think it's more along the lines of iron sights vs. red dots.
>>109833463>you didn't debunk HWUBSteve literally posted a YouTube comment on that Daniel Owen video page admitting he's spent years to try and cause a melt on these 12+4 power cables.
>>109833476So HWUB's instance doesn't count either.The truth lies in the middle.
>>109833463>I hate you retards so much for mixing up AUD CAD and USD all together under the same "dollar" acronymI mean, if you read my original post you can see that I wrote "$3-$4k CAD". That should tell you that I'm using Canadian dollars. So when you ask how much a game is, I'm going to believe that you're not retarded and know that $ = CAD.
Can I just turn hdr on and and be done with it or am I supposed to do a lot of tinkering? I wouldn't even know how to properly adjust the colors It's an IPS btw

>>109833558On my IPS monitor it made things look worse for me. But I like the high contrast look of srgb mapped to the maximum gamut.The weird thing is that firefox and edge have a different results. On edge, it will treat all the color spaces the same and max out the gamut. On Firefox, it will adjust srgb tagged content to be less colorful than true high gamut content.This is with HDR mode OFF.https://www.wide-gamut.com/testIf I turn on HDR mode, edge behaves similarly to firefox. But then firefox looks more desaturated (the colors are completely different than edge now, the hdr content is not correct either).But I probably have a weird setting I enabled and forgot about in firefox, and I didn't restart my PC. You should just test it yourself and compare. Also I bet while gaming, the nvidia auto RTX HDR thing is probably worth using, but then I would probably turn off HDR when I'm done gaming (but I don't have an RTX nvidia GPU).

>>109833877>I think it means he has been using the connector normally since it released and nothing has happened until now"Trying for years now" doesn't mean he's been using the GPU & connector normally since release in that context.Good on you for outing yourself as an ESL. Your thoughts don't matter.
I bet this guy fried his shit the one time he tried overclocking and it really hurt his ego hence the "noooo it's not funnnn" and "you're gonna breaaak it" anytime somebody brings up the subject lmao
>>109834000>"Trying for years now" doesn't mean he's been using the GPU & connector normally since release in that context.making assumptions to fit your agenda, you are reaching to fit your narrative like a mfagain, you are still behind debunking every techtuberstop being hung up on HUB stevehis use case is not "Normal" in the sense he is doing testing and unplugging it more often, you are again jumping to him purposefully trying to sabotage the connector on purpose, if that's the case why hasn't he been successful until now?>Your thoughts don't matter.Cope and rope you haven't debunked anyone yet and Jensen won't send you a free 5090 either
it takes a PC far beyond extreme overclocking to get the going into games machine running. It's a lost art that barely anyone achieved in first place.

>>109834057Ok, explain exactly what things he has done to try to fry his connector on purpose? Oh wait you don't have exact details on everything he tried? Sounds like almost you are reaching and making stuff up in your own mind as to what he did or notno, "He did not use it normally" with assumptions does not count or imply anythingHe has been plugging it in and out more than a normie because of test, that's about all we knowdo you know more?You made everything up in your mind so far by the way, waiting on the debunks on other techtubers also>>109834024Enjoy your bios screen lil bro>"you're gonna breaaak it"stop making up stuff I never said HAHA
>>109834110>Ok, explain exactly what things he has done to try to fry his connector on purpose?You don't seem to understand that's not the important part of that comment.He's clearly expressed an intent ("tried") to cause a melt on his power cable, for years.It's not surprising that a guy who's "tried" to get his -90 series GPU power cable to melt eventually caused one.I wonder why HWUB Tim never managed to get his -90 GPU power cable to melt. Probably because he never deliberately tried to exacerbate it.Typical ESL.

>>109834252Should be fine with the latest BIOS.Not many Ryzen 5 CPUs were affected.That board probably has safer auto settings to begin with.
>>109833482I see your line of thinking, but, the core issue is that ammo (games) from 10+ years ago still function fine in new guns as does new production ammo function fine in old guns up to 70+ years ago provided it's not some Bubba's pissin hot levels of firepower.New Winchester white box 9MM Luger works in a Browning Hi-Power from 1972 the same as it works in a Glock 19 Gen 6But with games; that is in no way true. We're being effectively shoehorned into near mandatory upgrades for critical components to keep up to par with new games (ammo); at exorbitant rates entirely due to the rise of AI and adjacent sectors kneecapping the production capabilities of major manufacturers in terms of consumer components.
