So I have the G.SKILL Flare X Series 16GB F4-3200C14D-16GFX module, it runs at 2400mhz right now. When I built my PC ages ago I set it to run at 3000mhz but for some reason after checking recently it skedaddled back to 2400mhz. I tried to manually overclock it to 3200mhz and set the latencies accordingly as described by the manufacturer and set the voltage to a recommended 1.350v, now I noticed curiously at the time that the voltage of the DRAM was only 1.2~v. Anyways fast forward to booting up I got a glore of start-up issues and BSOD's of various registry files and VGA issues and had to switch to HDMI to get any video. This instability disappeared after I set back my RAM to 2400mhz and higher latency clocks. How do I get my RAM to run at the advertised speeds? XMP and memory try it! don't work. I'm afraid manually overclocking again might send me into another maelstrom of issues and instability

Should I buy an RTX 2060 or Vega 56? I haven't overclocked/undervolted in my life, but I am willing to learn if it will give me significant increases in performance.

So after replacing my power supply and cleaning out my shit as good as I possibly could, applying new thermal paste, and installing another fan, my PC still crashes when trying to play games that aren't all that demanding. Specifically Borderlands 1 (not the HD remaster version). Used to be able to run it flawlessly with no issues at all, max settings on pretty much everything iirc so I figured it's a good starting point to benchmark my shit. I spoke to a guy at Best Buy about it today and he told me it sounds like an issue with the motherboard. Said something about the socket or capacitors? I don't remember which, honestly. Just got off work and I spoke to the guy almost 12 hours ago. Is the guy full of shit or could either of those things cause frequent crashing? Anyway, I'm gonna try to roll with replacing the motherboard as the solution. If it doesn't work, then at least I'll sort of be forced to upgrade my entire setup since I built it in 2015 anyways, and even then most of the tech was already a year old or so. My second question is, what is a good motherboard replacement that I can fit in my case and that will fit my graphics card? The card is kind of humongous. The biggest standalone piece inside my tower by a good margin. It's my first and only build and a friend walked me through a lot of it so I'm not exactly sure how to shop for this stuff. Boxes are long gone.

>>71000832 Anon, are you sure you didn't cherry-pick that specific game? Because you're already showing only the 0.1% low for 1080p, presumably because the average and the 1% low don't fit the point you're trying to make.

>>71000796 Different anon here, but I game @1440p 155Hz with a Vega64 (Strix) no problem. Settings are maxed except for ugly shit like ambient occlusion. No AA obviously, as at this DPI level it isn't really necessary anymore. Relatively consistent frametimes, GPU never goes beyond 70°C. Yeah the Geforce 2xxx series will be faster, but Vega and above do pack a punch and enable high frame rate gaming even at higher resolutions.

>>71000832 Of course he's not recommending the 2060 when the Vega 56 costs less right now. When the 2060 first came out, it was the better buy because it was cheaper than the 56. 2080=VII, though I can see why he'd recommend the card with more VRAM if all else is equal.

I just looked up the video somebody else posted last thread. If you want to say cherry-pick you are in your right to do so as it's one game and I myself don't think 1 games good or bad performance should dictate somebodys purchase unless they really care about that game that much. >Because you're already showing only the 0.1% low for 1080p, presumably because the average and the 1% low don't fit the point you're trying to make. I don't get it, when you look at intel vs amd you guys always scream "look at the low 0.1% it stutters! As soon as it's gpus and in favor of AMD you go that 0.1% doesn't matter, please make up your mind. Incidentally I agree on the 0.1% mattering as who cares if you have 1000fps if your lows are in 20fps. As an exaggerated example. >>71001041 >Of course he's not recommending the 2060 when the Vega 56 costs less right now. If people find vega 56 for a siginificantly lower price, go for it. But when that wasn't the case AMD shills spammed 6GB IS ENOUGH meme to hold people over until shit like this happened and navi comes out. If vega 56 is significantly cheaper and with a custom cooler, go for it. But don't go for it because MUH 6GB IS NOT ENOUGH meme. Simple? >2080=VII, though I can see why he'd recommend the card with more VRAM if all else is equal. Radeon 7 is hotter thus louder. Something most users care about. It also doesn't have ray tracing.

Almost any GPU will handle almost any game fine if you reduce the settings enough. That's not the point the point is relative performance between the two fucking cards. And even then you did NOTHING to address the point of performance difference between the two cards, you just said buy vega because if you reduce video settings it will be fine.

What case should I get if I want to house two custom cooled GPUs (air), at least one (probably two) expansion cards, and my olden NH-D15 because it still rocks? I was thinking about the cases with custom gpu mount - leave one on the mobo and put the other int the mount. Bonus points for no gaymen shit (windows, rgb, dumb decorations) and eATX support. I think I'll go ATX either way, but who knows. Extra bonus points for horizontal mobo layout. (I already know of TT X5/X9, would go for the latter if it weren't so fucking long) Let's say that I'd like to spend no more than 250 bucks, but finding something half decent concerns me more that fitting in the budget.

Honestly, there's little point in recommending as long as it fits into your budget and is a reputable brand. The biggest decision for you is if you want to go for an IPS or a TN panel.

Hey, I have this power supply that I want to use in my new PC, however I’m not that great in my knowledge of parts. Would this be fit for use? It looks pretty much brand new from the outside but the sticker looks old/different from the ones that I see when I search for Corsair HX series. It also came in an old Alienware case that I got for free from a relative. It’s missing some cables too and I’m wondering if the ones from the Corsair website would fit. Can anyone help please?

10 hours later 71004279 Anonymous
>>71004213 >How does the refresh rate affect GPU? If you're looking to hit 144hz then you have to worry about what resolution you're feeding it first. 1080p is ez modo for your card @ 144hz and can pull off 144-300hz depending on title and your settings. When you up the resolution to 1440p, you have to use more GPU power to get there and some titles won't hit 144hz or will experience some drops depending on your settings. For non-FPS titles this can be a big concern. >I've read so many conflicting things You will, people suffer from buyer's remorse and shill their favourites. Look at reviews for a monitor before you buy it from a reputable site. IPS has a big benefit (viewing angles) but meh black levels (like most displays). IPS also has glowing issues with the backlight occasionally so it's up to you with how autistic you are if you can tolerate it. Go for a 1080p panel if you're not looking to upgrade your GPU too, It's just a question of selecting panel type and size at that point if you're only looking for 144hz. >>71004230 Yeah, I could update my monitor right now to a 1080p 240hz display from 1440/165 and believe it or not.

Henlo frens. I've finally decided to evolve from a gayming laptop virgin to desktop chad. For reference I'll be moving from a 960m 2gb, i7, 1080p laptop and my budget will be in the ballpark of at least $1500 as I'm starting from before square 1; I need to purchase a computer, monitor, desk, and keyboard. The only thing I really have is a g502 mouse. I'm leaning towards a 1440p setup to really treat myself and give me that wow factor after going through 2 low/mid tier laptops. As this is all new to me, I read that all your parts need to compliment each other, so I'm leaning towards a 2070 and i7. I assume I really can't go wrong with either a 8700k or 9700k depending on my end budget, but what brand/specification should I get for the 2070? I figure I'll ask about this build in pieces as I come to it as I'm still basically in the preplanning phase. But if anyone has any further suggestions for anything I'm happy to hear them. Also, is it worth it to buy/build a pc through one of the websites instead of building it piece by piece myself to ensure I don't fuck it up?

Is it even worth upgrading from an i7-4790(locked) Haswell to an overclock-able (air cooled) AMD ryzen 8+ core or one of intel's newer i7/i9 processors? I've been waiting for a good while for an 8 core processor with noticeably better single core performance as I still use software that focuses heavily on a single core. 1080Ti is good enough, my use case is mostly gaming 4k/60Hz,1440/144Hz, VR, and once in a blue moon emulating consoles including more recent ones like PS3 and WiiU. I also compile applications from the AUR every once in a while. Most of the games I play are not very recent and usually crunch hard on a single thread. Like COH:BK mod, Sots1/2, IL2:BOS.

I think I've killed my gpu lads. I bought an RX580 on eBay that I can only assume was used for mining thanks to the stability issues I have been having. I originally OCd it in Wattman at a 4.5% increase in frequency, which worked fine for a while and then started to crash. I let it stay stock for a long time and then decided to try using Afterburner, which worked fine in benchmarks but in Mordhau I was getting bright flashing green lights on certain textures. I kept dialing the core clocks back until it was stable, yet now I get flickering shadows and problems with certain textures, even at stock. Should I Just Wait™ for Navi and suffer, or is there something else I might try to make it stable again?

Don't post here at all, but what the hell. Bought a cyberpower tower a bit ago, love it to death, though I've been having troubles with overheating, while the system itself is perfectly fine, the glass door on the case is retaining the heat, and getting crazy hot, like, hand-on-stove hot. I'd rather not have it explode one day and send shards of scalding hot glass all over my feet, any ideas on how to manage this, or a replacement door?

>>71004619 I am not in a rush to upgrade. I'd rather wait some more then and see what gets announced especially after the instruction pre-fetching security vulnerabilities. My upgrade budget is around 2k USD for a CPU, 24~32Gb DDR4 RAM and a Mobo. Reason for the excessive RAM is that I want to take another swing at GPU passthrough using two dGPUs (I have a 980 lying around) this time instead of an iGPU+dGPU. iGPU+dGPU setup was not convenient for me since I like to watch stuff on MPV with post processing effects that my iGPU can't handle and I don't want to download/watch my shit on windows. I just want to use windows for gaming/compatibility without dual booting constantly. Furthermore, rebinding the dGPU on linux with systemdicks requires you to log out which makes you loose everything in your session and you have to shutdown the VM so it no longer becomes a seamless experience. Despite the hassle and autism involved in setting it up, it was nice to have the option to spin up multiple VM configurations with your OS of choice (w7,w10,XP) and set an offline only windows VM that never ever never connected to the internet, ever. Not having your system rendered unusable every time windows has a major update was another nice bonus as well. Looking glass worked suprisingly well too, especially with a KVM switch so I didn't have to even switch monitor inputs and can run everything from within my host OS. I'd have to wait even longer to see if people manage to pass through successfully on certain mobo+cpu combinations without kernel patching. Extra CPU performance would offset the hypervisor CPU penalty which is around 5%.

On that note, does anyone have experience with RTX cards on Freesync monitors?

>>71005330 I don't personally. I've seen people post here getting flickering and brightness issues with Freesync on RTX. You're also limited to monitor choices with display port.

>>71007050 I don't remember an emulator that gives you a performance boost with more cores. I know the most recent ones stopped penalising you for buying AMD, but I don't think it would give you a perf advantage.

15 hours later 71007109 Anonymous
>>71007050 Only in RPCS3. Cemu only uses 3 cores max. 2600X and 2700X perform around the same in it, but that's fine since 2600X gets 60fps in BotW. RPCS3 is the real difficult one to emulate. Nothing really runs it great, but you get 60fps at times with the 2700X which is better than most options. Look on youtube for better answers. >>71007002 It sounds like you haven't actually enabled PBO like the other anon said and are confusing XFR or basic truboing for it.

>>71007325 Now I'm starting to see the fucking picture. I use hyper-v and have svm enabled so I don't usually use ryzen master at all. However because I noticed the lower clocks I disabled svm to launch ryzen master and noticed that the EDC levels were at default again, I just assumed ryzen master opens at default values or something. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Lates t-AGESA-firmware-can-brick-Precisio n-Boost-Overdrive-on-AMD-400-series -motherboards.414884.0.html

Kingdom Come Deliverence. Star Citizen. Maybe some others I'm not thinking of. But it seems clear that developers were really held back by 4c/8t being "high end" and have now been able to make games demanding. With next gen consoles also being 8c/16t it looks like that might become the sweet spot soon enough.

>>71007454 Yeah, you can roll back to the previous version but it takes a bit of effort and honestly not worth it when the new bios could be releasing next week.

>>71007414 insofar as silicon-semiconductor tech goes, it's just fucking hard to keep making it smaller. it is not a matter of laziness. the process is limited. I suspect the curve will flatten until a completely new manufacturing method comes along, or a new material: we're due for a revolution if we want that nice 'exponential' curve back.

Guys, what about a build for gaming at 60fps, programming and image-editting, having BRL 4.000,00 as the budget? I was thinking about getting a GTX 1060 6GB, Ryzen 2600X, still dunno about the RAM, MoBo, storage, or the case. I do have a good power supply as of now (CX600) that I wish to use on that build. Any help would be appreciated

Hey /g/, about to order the parts for this system, do you think there's anything i should absolutely change? Are there any conflicts that i'm not aware of? I hear the RAM clearance under that cooler isn't enough, but i've seen images of them together so idk. Also yes, i know, Intel fucking sucks right now, but i don't have time to wait for Zen 2 in Q3 right now, maybe i'll just upgrade then if it's that much greater.
