I dont believe this is the issue here. Nothing to suggest there is something wrong with the design of those CPUs that make them fail at shader compilation. People run them without any issues. Those that had issues, had increasing failure rate and some that RMAd their CPU saw those issues go away...
I would follow their advice. Performance degradation on CPU is common due to electron migration (any overclocker site have had those discussions when it comes to OC and how long the CPU can last), which many suspect this is. You have a CPU that has been pushed hard from Intel, then pushed even...
Then perhaps you also use CPL rarely to begin with, yes? I can understand that. I have also resorted to third party tools, because the old CPL is too much of a chore to be useful. The new one seems to give more reason to actually be used, instead of avoided unless you are forced to use it. I for...
This ^ . The old CPL have been shitty for decades when it comes to configure games. The more games you have installed, the more pain it becomes to find the game you want to tweak and use it. Some might disagree, but I think for most people out there, the 3d settings part of CPL is the one people...
I would still consider 4070 super. Your powersupply is only 320W. GPUs in classes over that have spikes that can trigger your PSU. Even though the 7900 XTX actually gives you higher frames per watt, that GPU also have 20ms spikes up to 391W. The 4070 Super have 239W and on this chart the 4070 TI...
I second that. It sips power compared to other CPUs with similar performance. In addition, when you start capping games, reducing settings, using upscalers and also old games where GPU is more then enough, it have given me more boost in smoothness then many GPU upgrades I have had even with the...
I look forward trying it out this weekend! I hate the old Nvidia control panel to the point I avoid using it unless I have to. About time they made it more streamlined and modern. Still Beta, but looks like it already have the most important features that I use.
My two cents about this is from my own experience tuning systems for image consistency and low noise, but steps are same to reduce power consumption (which is not a factor for me other then reducing noise). Take what you want from that and see what you can use for your project. :)
I have two...
In the example provided by Nvidia (reflex is dynamic and adjust according to framerate, so they used 100fps/10ms only for illustration), the time spent in render queue is also 10ms, so holding frame for 7ms, then spending 3ms for CPU to ready image for render queue, means that next frame can...
I have used Nvidia for many years now due to VR. My greatest joy after getting a 6950 XT for a HTPC build (went AMD due to trying out steamOS/chimeraOS for a while) is the control panel from AMD in Win 11. It contains everything you need for general tweaks on game to game basis on the fly...
I have no idea. Was written 8 of August, so cannot be anything from current gen (7800XT and 7700XT). For the pro and compute cards, newest announced card is MI300X (announced in June I think), which is a GPU with 8 GPU cores, unlike the MI300 non-X, which have 3 GPU cores and a CPU core. He is...
Thank you for your suggestions, but my point in this thread about SteamOS and also when it comes to my personal build for a PC gaming console, is not about replacing a Windows OS with Linux in general. I think you are more arguing about benefits of replacing Windows or general PC usage on Linux...
Oh, I know how Nvidia performs in Linux both good and bad, having used Linux on and off for a decade. I am by no means a Linux expert, but not a total newcomer either. Also how the Linux community feels about Nvidia in general. However, this is not about general Linux support from Nvidia, but...
Lets just hope this doesn´t end with being partially a vendor lock porting those games, where you get less performance or features on an Nvidia card or Intel card, because it doesn´t support AMDs secret sauce for some FSR 3 features to make it viable. We dont need more of that.
Lets hope its useful enough. AMD seemed excited about it at least. And, lets hope Valve gets it into their SteamOS and gets proper Nvidia support for SteamOS soon. I tried ChimeraOS on older hardware (8700K and GTX 1080 first, then with RTX 2080 TI) for fun. Had to use Intel iGPU for Gamescope...
It will be interesting to see and a bit fun that it can be turned on almost globally. FSR did wonders for Steamdeck. Sure, there might be somethings not optimal, like with current frame generation from Nvidia, but it looked good if only to judge on the videos AMD showed on stage with it in...
Looks better. Raytracing in current games have seemed a bit off to me, since its very visible in some objects, making the raytraced objects seem out of place. This looks more like full scene raytracing and looks leaps and looks less "gimmicy". I look forward to see independent reviews of this. :)
You mean by his definitition. This is of the few direct quotes about this from AMD employees. Appreciate I took the time to share it when I spotted it just now. :p
After all, its this is a speculation thread ...
If the winner of the auction for the waterblock reads this, please send the waterblock to GN for review! Would be very interesting to see their take on it.
Are you going to produce content of value (in $$$, not sentimental value) or just tinker a bit on a hobby basis/educational purposes? If its actually money generating work, build a dedicated system for it without any crap you dont actually use for work. Dont dual boot if you can avoid it. Unless...
This might be true in this generation. Nvidia have a new VRM design where they claim 10X improvement in power management response time. Might lead to being able to have more refined voltage curves, needing less voltage overhead for stability:

On previous generation AMD...
Route 1, depending on your resolution a little bit.
Your 3070ti is still a capable card and those games benefit greatly from a 7800X3D. Its especially in the 1% lows, but also in minimum FPS you will notice it. With a strong CPU, you can dial down graphical settings and get more in return if...
I only have a limited experience of a 6800XT ish (XFX 6950XT with reduced power limit), but I am positively surprised. Had it for only two weeks now. My first AMD card for many years (I think Fury was my last AMD card), since Nvidia have been best on VR for many generations. My computer cases...
5600x is still a decent CPU. :)
Baldurs Gate 3 is a very CPU intensive game, so using power limit for that game would not be a bad thing for your system.
I often buy games on offer, then don´t have time to play them. Then a new game comes along that seems interesting, I buy it to see and then have no time to play. A bad circle and its creating a huge backlog. I comfort myself now that Armenius is 3 times worse then me buying games on Steam. :P
Temps he have can be run 24/7 without a problem (but if he has bad paste and/or poor airflow, it might be higher after extended use). I think noise is his primary problem. I totally agree with capping the FPS and downclocking/power limiting the card. As many have stated, the loss is not that big...
Because of his second screenshot taken after an hour with full fan blast. Techpowerup takes its measurements 2 minutes after card have reached its thermal equilibrium after a period of 100% load. Clearly thats not the case for OP from initial screenshot vs second one. Bad airflow or shitty...
Your card should not be that hot and loud by default:
https://www.techpowerup.com/review/zotac-geforce-rtx-3090-trinity/31.html
Perhaps try to run it with side panels of the case off to check if its starved for airflow. If still hot, this card might need repasting and new thermal pads as people...
I think you are missing my whole point, so let me boil it down a bit: Raytracing is available on some games, while only a few of them have any significant implementation of it. In addition to that, for a gamer, provided that one of the few games that have any significant raytracing in it are...
I mean no disrespect, but really dont have time answering by microquote, even though microquites might be more precise. :)
Raytraced objects in games, especially glass can have too much realism compared to the rest of the gameworld and though it looks cool, they become out of place. My "Roger...
This.
And to make things even muddier, high refresh monitors and greater focus on game fluidity are more mainstream today that RT, even outside of competitive gaming, so RT might in some cases be more valuable off due to performance hit for the overall gameplay experience. In some cases, RT can...
Its better you only use 3 of the 4 plugs. Sense pins should detect that only 3 is attached and limit wattage to 450. Avoid using the second plug on a PCI-E cable as much as you can.
Price is too high for this to be mainstream yet. But, in pro segment, it has many uses. Construction companies in my country use BIM models for all new large projects, there are presentations in other business segments that can benefit greatly from a decent AR and VR. VR is uncomfortable to use...
