    Discussion Zen 5 Speculation (EPYC Turin and Strix Point/Granite Ridge - Ryzen 9000)

    I feel you, and respect you for what you do. That's just not what I'm looking for. The platform costs alone for Epyc/TR are insane compared to AM5. I'm good with 16C/32T, 64GB memory per machine. Tried to do 145ppt power limit. Max all core 4.7ish, 145w package power. But I need speed, so I run...

    Discussion Zen 5 Speculation (EPYC Turin and Strix Point/Granite Ridge - Ryzen 9000)

    That was all in the plan bro. Eagerly waiting for Zen 5, I'm lurking and reading. Not even looking at Intel. This "farm" can encode 2000~ 24min videos to AV1 1080p per day. A 30%+ MT perf increase at similar power? Dang I'm drooling. These beasts all do min 5.1Ghz all core MT encoding 24/7.

    Discussion Zen 5 Speculation (EPYC Turin and Strix Point/Granite Ridge - Ryzen 9000)

    Agreed. I built four 7950x systems. In the end still cheaper than a Epyc/TR and much faster overall when the encoding fps is combined vs a single 64 core machine because of faster clocks.

    8GB VRAM not enough (and 10 / 12)

    Surely those hololive girls are going crazy over this card. 😀

    Question Cpu usage question

    Handbrake can do up to 8 simultaneous encodes within one instance. I have to run 3 parallel just to max out a single 7950x. All this in AV1.

    8GB system DRAM in 2023

    @aigomorla Going OT, but why not use AV1? I'm getting really good results and since you have a 4000 series Nvidia it supports hardware decoding. I have better quality then H265 and the files are smaller, using SVT-AV1 in Handbrake.

    Question Zen 4 builders thread

    I thought so too. The advertised allcore is 5.2. Is this close to a golden sample? All settings are stock except for XMP on a 360 aio. Both running Windows Server 2022.

    Question Zen 4 builders thread

    Built 2 7950x rigs recently for AV1 encoding. Comparing to my 5800x desktop, they've been really, really good. At preset 8 and QP 34 the 5800x totals around 90fps and the 7950x about 280-330fps, despite having double the cores it's over 3x as fast. Must be the zen3 vs zen4 architecture, cache...

    Question Bent pins on brand new Gigabyte X670 AM5 socket?

    It's nice to know that you're getting a new product when you actually order one. Amazon has been dropping the ball lately and I've been extremely disappointed. I've ordered two new corsair h150i capellix coolers in the last two weeks and both I've received refurbished units. Not only that but...

    Question Bent pins on brand new Gigabyte X670 AM5 socket?

    Yes I agree. The thing about motherboards in all my years building is that the boxes aren't shrink wrapped. The only thing keeping them looking like a new product is that tape that seals the static electric bag.

    Yes I bought it from Amazon. I have bought a new one and since returned the broken board for a refund.

    Question Bent pins on brand new Gigabyte X670 AM5 socket?

    Hey guys I am building a new Ryzen 7950X rig and finally received all my parts. First time with AM5 here. While I was about to install the CPU I noticed the socket looked a bit strange. It appears there could be 2 bent or missing pins on the socket, I'm not too sure but don't wanna take a...

    Question What's the slowest CPU you have tortured in your history of personal computing?

    I took a Duron 750 to 900mhz that was sick. Ran hot, remember briefly cooling it with a Thermaltake orb. Also a i7 920 2.66 stock to 3.33ghz. And as well my Sandy Bridge 2500k to 4.6ghz

    Question I oscillate between 8700k ,6800k or 7820x

    If you can't afford a modern setup like a 5600+b550+16gb ddr4 then save up a little bit more. It's not worth buying old tech especially skylakeX. You're worried about the TDP but what did you expect from a 7+ year old HEDT? There's nothing compelling, it's all compromises. If you need AVX512...

    Question are video card prices headed down yet?

    I got tired of waiting for the prices to drop. My 1070ti died last week and I got lucky on a XFX Merc 6900xt for $950 cad on Amazon. The card is huge! It didn't even fit in my Corsair 680x with the 360 aio in the front, so I picked up a 7000x and refreshed my build. This card is super cool and...

    Discussion Speculation: Zen 4 (EPYC 4 "Genoa", Ryzen 7000, etc.)

    Not sure if this was mentioned, but maybe this is AMDs planned SKU eventually: 7600X 7700X 7800XT 7900X 7900XT 7950X 7990XTX All XTx series are 3DV cache, pure gaming CPUs. Nothing Intel can really counter with. What do ya'll think?

    Question Why don't we have a massive push for ARM chips in desktop computers and laptops?

    Exactly! I know people who adore their QNAPs and Synology's, but I've always scoffed at the prices. You really pay for the simplicity and convenience. I'd rather do a DIY pc with internal drives on top of Windows. But these days finding a nice chassis with plenty 3.5 bays is a rarity.

    Review AMD RX 5600XT Review Thread

    That VBIOS last minute shenanigans is retarded. We consider ourselves enthusiasts but I have plenty of friends/acquaintances that wouldn't touch a BIOS update within a 10 foot pole. They just don't trust bricking their hardware. This isn't going to be good. A lot of regular people are just...

    Totally true! Up until Ryzen, AMD were using Intel platforms to showcase their Radeon GPUs.

    Do you care about graphics card aesthetics?

    For the most part, no. In a regular case the fans face down so you can't even see the fans. But any card I buy must have a backplate.

    Discussion What is the minimum dGPU and VRAM for gaming 2019.

    Depends on the games you play. Triple A games like the ones that are used for reviews? It all depends on the resolution. I would say a 1060 TI level-card is minimum for 2019 at 1080p. I have been playing more of the Korean made MMOs and I have no issues getting great performance and 60fps at 4k...

    Shadow mask versus Trinitron CRT

    Lol you registered just to post that. Back in the early 00's I was shopping for a new monitor. I was looking at either the Samsung 755DF or a LG Flatron. I ended up getting the 755DF because it supported 1600x1200 and I was learning graphics on Photoshop 5.0, and I was 19 at the time. I used...

    When was AMD / ATI last performance leader for singel GPU?

    Yeah I felt the 5870 was a winner too. I had a GTX295 and then upgraded to the 5870 for single gpu. The GTX480 was fast but had heat issues so the 5870 wins that round. The 9700 Pro was sick too. I bought a 9500 Pro instead and BIOS unlocked it. It was bliss.

    Vega/Navi Rumors (Updated)

    I agree it just doesn't make any sense either. AMD and their partners would just be thrilled to sell every single card they can produce.

    Vega/Navi Rumors (Updated)

    Well the FE card has 512 less shaders but does have a 347mhz clock speed advantage (going by ATs estimate). With architectural improvements it could at least match 480 C.F. minus the multigpu disadvantages.
