dogbone getting destroyed lol. He has absolutely no idea who Louis Rossman is and how important he is for us consumers who love electronics and DIY. Many ignorance, much wow. Going after beloved members of the community is not a good look for YT.

Wow. Why would they do this? Aren't they losing ground left and right to UE5 already? Its like they are speedrunning their way to get everyone to leave Unity and have no income at all

Dang a 4090 struggling? Not having DLSS is not great but FSR2 is an ok alternative that works good enough. (I personally don't care about upscaling or nitpicking between the two) Missing Ray tracing features sounds like a necessity if a 4090 is already struggling lol. 155GB install, sadly par...

I count 19 motherboards at less than $200. Took me less than 5 mins. Not everything needs x670... Also, at least at the high end, Intel using double the power or more is embarrassing. If you want the "best" CPU, I think what brand you go with depends more on the amount of money you have to...

I mean $800 GPUs are "mid-range" now. I think its still crazy that $800 GPUs even exist, let alone $1600 ones...

I guess people don't like the idea of using a traditionally "GPU benchmark", changing up the settings, and using it as a CPU benchmark.

The Windows Scheduler has some flaws, its not terrible by any means, but I wouldn't describe it as "really good", as prioritizing foreground apps should be one of the most simple things for a scheduler to do and is a low bar to hit. I don't play games much these days, but I do like to run a lot...

If by tangible FPS differences, you mean better lows, then yes. Less so if you have CPU to spare Helps especially for borderline CPU bottlenecked setups. See the Steam Deck with Windows for example...

I also want to leave this here: One thing that an alarmingly large number of users forget (even me), is that these reviewers are running "lean" "barebones" windows installs. Just enough software to run the games and capture the data they need. How many of us keep our systems that lean??? How...

So for gaming, why does anyone spend more that what a 3600 costs??? You get 94.5% perf of the latest 13900k. /s Also I would love to see a Quake3 bench lol

10+ more FPS compared to what? 120? The user in question is at 75hz, unless its less than 75FPS then there isn't that much to gain. (there are SOME benefits to higher fps than monitors refresh though if you are a competitive gamer though... ) The user is clearly fine with a hypothetical i3, so...

Well, it won't take much to run 4K 75hz if you're only into gaming. You can get that FPS with a i3, no sense spending more for no benefit, but i'm guessing you have something better than that...

I think we are just having a hard time understanding your opinion on this topic as you disagree with not just HUB, but the entire hardware review media, for gaming focused audiences. It doesn't make sense to skip the "gaming" portions of CPU reviews as that is just more data to backup whether...

I guess you entirely miss the point of testing games at low resolutions then. The entire point is to isolate CPU performance. It is not a "game benchmark". Think of it as a "CPU benchmark" like Cinebench R23 and such. Because "games" are tested in CPU reviews, people get all up in arms about...

LOL! I resorted to baking a 7950GTX two seperate times. Each lasting about 6 months.

I'd honestly take a card that was run 24/7 rather than a gamer who plays everyday and shuts down their computer at night/daily. Usually miner cards are given some great cooling/airflow. The only thing I would be worried about would be the custom BIOS running out of spec memory timings when I get...

Highest causes of wear/aging for PC parts: -Thermal Cycling/Thermal Expansion (e.g. Nvidia solder issue debacle with 7000 series gtx laptop GPUs) -Excessive heat/voltage -Mechanical wear (Fans, Heads, etc on HDDs) There are a lot more wear factors than traditional "mechanical wear"...

looks like decent gains for 1080p visually...

I just built a raptor lake computer for somebody and this thread scared me because it has a 2.5Gb NIC! Turns out, its got a Realtek 2.5Gb NIC, phew!

I had no idea WoW could be such a fast paced game, I've only ever seen my wife and MIL play it. I would think that CPU would play a much larger role in WoW being a MMORPG, although having raytracing probably makes it more GPU bound I guess. Only game I've ever played really competitively is...

I'm sure all of us here appreciate having hardware to run games at 4k 144+fps. But for WoW? Really??? What benefit is there for running WoW at 144 fps capped other than OCD lol?

Driver improvements over time are not "mythical". Cards with more compute power and memory tend to age better with driver improvements. Not to mention this is the first "chiplet" GPU, i'm sure there are plenty of improvements to be made over time. Same thing happens each and every console...

Well yeah, i'm not surprised. If you straight copy paste its output without understanding it you will be in a world of trouble as it very often spits out code that looks like it will work, but won't when you run it. However, it gets you most of the way there. For example, it couldn't after...

This assumes that the teachers are smart and or care...

bruh, that Chat bot is amazing. I've been using it to help write powershell scripts for me instead of going to stackoverflow. Scary stuff

Those are some serious gains for HDD lol

Oh boy

It was Zen 5 that will have "P" and "E" Cores.

I'm sure the loads you work with are more constant than what happens in the RC world. They also don't move. I have a 1/10 3s buggy myself and can attest to the hundreds of amps and harsh environments these connectors can handle and also haven't had one fail or deteriorate to warrant replacing...

Yet again the average user is being underestimated...

Oh they are plenty flexible if the individual wire strands are thinner in the wires, but would require a few changes for PSU manufacturers. Or keep the same 18awg wires but combine them all at the connector lol. (Jk) Seriously though, other people have already done the hard work of designing...

I agree they can make something better, although plugging in 4 connectors is hardly an inconvenience compared to the alternative... Take for instance the RC hobby world. The XT60 connectors are VERY robust and can handle much more than 30 connection cycles and are pretty small relative to their...

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/10/nvidia-is-investigating-reports-of-melting-geforce-rtx-4090-power-connectors/ Looks like the new connector has some very low tolerances and low safety margin if true. Also, Kyle confirmed that RDNA3 will NOT be using the new connector...

LOL They are feeding that thing all the power it could ever want. Intel's process node can handle some serious power draw. We just need cooling solutions to make some progress. Let go back to Direct Die!

This makes sense as to why no one else has chiplet CPUs or GPUs. If TSMC was selling chiplet fabbing options, why wouldn't others be jumping on it since its obviously cheaper to produce chiplet based CPUs with how great the yields are...

Well no surprise that DLSS runs better than FSR on your NVidia GPU. Just like FSR runs better on RDNA 2 than RDNA1 and Nvidia cards. Also, you should check your own posts... Back on topic, I hope AMD doesn't waste resources on frame generation tech like DLSS 3. To me that just seems like a...

You forgot you said "Lies" when talking about his game library... FSR 1.0 yes FSR 2.1 Have you even seen in-depth comparisons??? In general upscaling tech is detrimental to gameplay graphics and I hate using it I agree with you on NVENC but I don't have a use for it.

People act like FSR2 doesn't exist. I myself am still on a RX 5700 and it can handle my UE5 projects that use Lumen fine at 1080p. Although Lumen can be accelerated by DXR hardware which I don't have. I even have room for a 20% overclock using mpt and haven't really needed it yet

For AMD to be "on par" it has to be at least 5% faster in every game and no losses while being cheaper.... Kidding aside, the only part where the 6000 series struggles is if you turn on RT, and don't have FSR to help you. If you don't play anything with ray tracing, then you're good!

Also, I bet the 4080 12GB would even be slower than some of the 3080 AIB cards in some titles (especially without RT) considering how close they were in Nvidia's own perf charts...
