Single core, Latency, it's newer, slightly higher clock possible, lower heat output.
For your standard gamer, the R5 3600 obvious choice
TheFifthAce#4128: and if you're needing the extra cores for something
TheFifthAce#4128: you generally dont
TheFifthAce#4128: and youre lying to yourself
Alcyone#2233: zen2 has a decent ipc lift over zen+. even if both are at say 4.2 the 3000 chips will be faster
TheFifthAce#4128: way faster
TheFifthAce#4128: its comparing better than CFL IPC to broadwell IPC
Galilool#3398: AMD said Zen3 will have a pretty high IPC increase once again
Galilool#3398: But, well, AMD says a lot when the day's long
TheFifthAce#4128: well its probably true lol
TheFifthAce#4128: its 7nm to 5nm
Galilool#3398: But hey, they already have the higher IPC rn
SuSSudio#2688: Any higher record with G41 mobo? This is the most stable OC on my Asus P5G41T mobo ever
|
- 3.55GHz
- Vcore 1.136 (1.160v idle)
- 1580mhz FSB
- Onboard GPU
Tested with CB R15 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/633565586013683712/E84CBR15_355G.PNG
SuSSudio#2688: Any higher the system will refuse to POST, reverting to the last settings
DarknessFalls229#2286: I once had 3.78GHz on my Q6600 on a P5N-T Deluxe
DarknessFalls229#2286: Though, pretty unstable
DarknessFalls229#2286: As i had limited voltage control
SuSSudio#2688: Core 2 quads aren't good overclockers, 3,78Ghz is considered lucky
SuSSudio#2688: doubt my G41 would push Q9450 to 3.6ghz
DarknessFalls229#2286: I can achieve 3.6GHz on both my Q6600 on both my P5 boards, havent tried 3.78 on _both_
DarknessFalls229#2286: I did get like 4.2 GHz on an E8400 without trying
SuSSudio#2688: yeah C2D 4.2GHz is average rate for higher end 775 boards |
DarknessFalls229#2286: 8 phases are nice
JustinXenyx#8854: @Abe. With Ryzen 2000 to 3000 it's not just a straight clock comparison, with Ryzen 3000 there was a decent IPC improvement
JustinXenyx#8854: But AMD seems to be pushing the limits with Ryzen 3000 clockspeeds, meaning there is practically no headroom for overclocking over the maximum boost clocks
Tinybox#9112: basically.
Tinybox#9112: just switch on pbo and go.
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I need some help after installing windows on a new drive, basically, I have no touchpad input even though it worked before on generic drivers
wiryfuture🦀#1706: I am now greeted with this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/633812991384485908/unknown.png
Lady Mipha#0611: @wiryfuture🦀 what error did it bring when you went into properties
wiryfuture🦀#1706: this, but I was using it out of the box on generic on my previous install and the drivers provided by toshiba don't make a difference https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/633813808401350668/unknown.png
wiryfuture🦀#1706: @Lady Mipha this but it shouldn't be
Lady Mipha#0611: 🤔
wiryfuture🦀#1706: * i meant shouldn't @Lady Mipha
Lady Mipha#0611: Have you tried uninstalling it
Lady Mipha#0611: Not physically
wiryfuture🦀#1706: can I? |
Lady Mipha#0611: There should be a remove option
wiryfuture🦀#1706: ok, I "uninstalled" it, do I need to reboot now?
Lady Mipha#0611: Yes
wiryfuture🦀#1706: ok, now it's displaying a ps/2 compatible mouse @Lady Mipha , and now it's a synaptics SMBus touchpad
wiryfuture🦀#1706: ok, it's telling me to restart again
wiryfuture🦀#1706: @Lady Mipha it's the same thing after uninstalling the driver, rebooting, letting windows install its thing rebooting https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/633816133442600971/unknown.png

Tinybox#9112: my first board was a biostar |
Tinybox#9112: my second board was a gigabyte
Tinybox#9112: my third board was an asus
Tinybox#9112: my fourth board was an asrock
Tinybox#9112: with which one did I have the worst experience with?
Tinybox#9112: THE BIOSTAR, BECAUSE THE FREAKING CPU NEVER BOOSTED PROPERLY WHICH PISSED ME OFF.
ALSO BECAUSE IT TOOK TO LONG TO BOOT FROM THAT FREAKING SCREEN AND CHANINGGGGG SETTINGS DIDNT HELP IT.
FFFFFFFFFFFFFF
thatubuntuguy#5914: dont hate on biostar
thatubuntuguy#5914: biostar best
SuSSudio#2688: which biostar
Tinybox#9112: from the first PC that I built independetly with no help at all
Tinybox#9112: H81mhv3
Tinybox#9112: this bepic board
Tinybox#9112: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/634023194528972822/iu.png
Tinybox#9112: weird as semi mini itx. |
Tinybox#9112: I wanted to build a mini itx pc back then.
Tinybox#9112: this one still had that one top slot for a wifi card.
Tinybox#9112: and would fit in most mini itx cases, which left a bit of space below the motherboard +had at least 3 slots.
Tinybox#9112: in the end i slammed it into a full atx case
Tinybox#9112: 2 expensive and im 2 cheap
Tinybox#9112: I faintly remember building on this board
Tinybox#9112: but the best experience i had was with my gigabyte x58 ud5
Tinybox#9112: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/634023996953985045/iu.png
Tinybox#9112: it was a nice building experience
DarknessFalls229#2286: a shame the first slot isnt 16x
DarknessFalls229#2286: but alas, x58 usually lack the space for it
Tinybox#9112: yup
Tinybox#9112: the vrm cooling did an awesome job btw
Tinybox#9112: but this was annoying
Tinybox#9112: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/634024320271908865/unknown.png |
DarknessFalls229#2286: yeah, looks like a fine finstack
Tinybox#9112: anyway
Tinybox#9112: now I got this asrock z68 pro3
Tinybox#9112: and I got an x79 board here as well
DarknessFalls229#2286: 970 😎
Flannel84#2980: Replacing capacitors without solder wick really is a pain in the ass. Any tips other then go slow and carefully?
TheGeekster#8508: Go really slow, and really carefully
TheGeekster#8508: Have you got one of those little hand on a stick things? Crocodile clip on a clamp that can reallllly help mounting components
Alcyone#2233: I use tweezers and apply very gentle pulling pressure on the body of the capacitor, only heating the legs of the cap, they usually slide out pretty quickly with a 60w+ iron
TheFifthAce#4128: Trying to use an rx 580 in an hp prebuilt, it will display fine on an optiplex 7010 board (i5 2400s), but will not display in hp pavillion (i5 2400s), but a gtx 650 works fine in the hp
JustinXenyx#8854: The pavilion probably doesn't like the newer card
thatubuntuguy#5914: how come boards don't like cards?
thatubuntuguy#5914: how does that work?
BigPierogi#3368: Because oem pcs are shit
BigPierogi#3368: A lot of the time |
TheFifthAce#4128: because hp shit
Alcyone#2233: try updating the bios
BigPierogi#3368: Last time somebody did that on a hp....
BigPierogi#3368: On this server
BigPierogi#3368: It bricked his system
thatubuntuguy#5914: i mean other than oems sucking ass and being shit
thatubuntuguy#5914: why
Alcyone#2233: prob touched something while updating, shouldn't let you flash the wrong bios, it will fail checksum
thatubuntuguy#5914: no i mean why do some motherboards not like certain gpus
thatubuntuguy#5914: not the bios updating thing
BigPierogi#3368: Because they limit upgrade options
BigPierogi#3368: So you buy a better pc
thatubuntuguy#5914: can't that just be modded out
JustinXenyx#8854: Why the fuck would they limit the upgrade options on a fucking 7 year old computer for a graphics card from 2018? @BigPierogi
thatubuntuguy#5914: is it like those darned lenovo wifi card whitelists |
Alcyone#2233: especially oems, doesnt see a proper vendor id, no post for you
BigPierogi#3368: @JustinXenyx it's 7 years old?
BigPierogi#3368: Oh
JustinXenyx#8854: My guess is that the HP probably doesn't like the VGA Bios because it's so new
TheFifthAce#4128: could it be the dual bios on the rx 580
TheFifthAce#4128: because it'll try to boot to efi first and sandy bridge *sort of* supports efi but doesn't actually, so it'll fail without switching to legacy?
Alcyone#2233: that should just be silent and oc bios
TheFifthAce#4128: no I mean
Alcyone#2233: could be an issue with uefi
TheFifthAce#4128: rx 580 supports efi and legacy
thatubuntuguy#5914: but like what goes on inside that the motherboard freaks out at - like code that asks the board to do something it doesn't know how to do, or it just straight up doesn't recognise it and for oem protection shuts down
Alcyone#2233: I had some post issues using pcie 3.0 gpus in a p67 on an older bios
thatubuntuguy#5914: but p67 is pcie 2 board or smth right
Alcyone#2233: yeah
thatubuntuguy#5914: but its backwards compatible ? :JellyBeanFace: |
thatubuntuguy#5914: how does that even work lol
thatubuntuguy#5914: how does it not like certain gpus
Alcyone#2233: pcie is backwards compatible but it wasnt working right until I updated
JustinXenyx#8854: Backwards compatibility doesn't always work like intended
JustinXenyx#8854: like PCIe 1.0 and 1.1 fucking hate newer stuff
thatubuntuguy#5914: so its like bugs in the board bios or smth?
thatubuntuguy#5914: because they can't predict what pcie 3.0 will be like
thatubuntuguy#5914: so it might not work right until that shit is actually released
JustinXenyx#8854: Basically that
thatubuntuguy#5914: makes sense
ANDEbad#6721: @thatubuntuguy Sandy bridge was pcie 3.0 was it not?
Alcyone#2233: no pcie 2.0
Alcyone#2233: ivy is 3.0
Alcyone#2233: there are some x6x gen3 1155 mobos that will run pcie 3 with an ivy cpu though
Alcyone#2233: otherwise even with ivy x6x is pcie 2 |
Some Ghost#6093: Hi, I have an old pc that I found at the dump, got it booted up but can't get it past the bios
watsonad2000#2000: @Some Ghost probably dead/missing hdd

JustinXenyx#8854: Try manually selecting the drive you want to boot from @Some Ghost
M17bully#0351: Can I be a tech helper cause I'm a literal tech master

DarknessFalls229#2286: although i did do some stream art
TheGeekster#8508: Asking for roles will get you ridiculed, and prove that you don't deserve it

Yeetabix#2959: So could you jump start a car with a computer's psu?
Asking for a friend
Lady Mipha#0611: I’m gonna have to say no
JustinXenyx#8854: oh fuck no dude @Yeetabix
JustinXenyx#8854: Jump starting a car takes so much fucking amperage, a computer power supply would never have soo much amperage on the 12v rail
JustinXenyx#8854: I have a 1600W power supply with 133 amps on the 12V rail and not even that is even close to what a car needs to jumpstart
Galilool#3398: Well, you can, but only once per PSU
JustinXenyx#8854: +It has the added bonus of not killing a PSU that isn't strong enough to even jumpstart a car in the first place
thatubuntuguy#5914: there's a reason your lights dim when the starter engages
killah#6020: unless the battery was stone deed id be bump startin it
thatubuntuguy#5914: might be an auto tho

Abe.#3344: This is not pc related like most of my questions are, but it's really important. How do I prove I own a domain?
Abe.#3344: I've had my Business's Instagram taken down by Facebook for "violating terms", but that's BS, we've done nothing. Literally posted 2 pictures, one of our logo and one of an image I made comparing storage from 1956 to now.
Abe.#3344: No comments or anything
Abe.#3344: And they need proof of ownership and the only thing we actually can present is domain ownership
TheGeekster#8508: Invoice of domain renewal, or ask them how to prove it tbh
tdp2612#3835: maybe like a photo of you holding a newspaper, put that on the site somewhere
TheGeekster#8508: they'll normally say about creating a page or snippet of code
Abe.#3344: They want an image
tdp2612#3835: an image of an invoice, or an image of you showing youre connected to the site
TheGeekster#8508: aye, invoice would work then

HotShot#8006: @JustinXenyx I have a m.2 nvme, gpu and wifi card, I want to add in a pci ssd as well, and maybe another GPU down the line. But of course I am already saturating my PCIe lanes with my CPU. I cant get ethernet because of were my PC is, at least, currently.
TheGeekster#8508: what motherboard do you have? atx or matx? cuz matx you won't have much space left at all, let alone pcie lanes (Just checking)
JustinXenyx#8854: since dual gpus are bullshit nowadays, you'd probably be fine with a Ryzen chip
JustinXenyx#8854: 8 lanes for GPU, 8 lanes for wifi card, pcie ssd etc
JustinXenyx#8854: + seperate 4 lanes for m.2 NVMe drives @HotShot
ANDEbad#6721: @JustinXenyx what kind of wifi card uses 8 pci-e Lanes?
Lady Mipha#0611: ^^^
Lady Mipha#0611: Oh wait he means other cards @ANDEbad
Lady Mipha#0611: Like a wifi card and pcie ssd
JustinXenyx#8854: I said "wifi card, pcie ssd etc" AKA that he has 8 lanes available for peripherals, not just the wifi card @ANDEbad
Tinybox#9112: So, the R9 290 DIRECT CUII PCB from ASUS, looks similar enough....,
I should be able to fix the cooler to a reference PCB R9 290 TRI-X? |
I think the PCB has the same length as well....
Adding to this, quite obviously I wouldn't be able to use the included VRM heatsink..., because **they are differences**.
So, amazon heatsinks to the rescue,,,next issue, I don't have enough to cool the entirety of the board, aka I'd need to completetly leave out the memory chips.
Can I get away with this? ^

JustinXenyx#8854: Cooler should be cross compatible, memory is organized in the same way and if the ASUS cooler has VRAM cooling it should fit fine. You might need some decent VRM copper heatsinks though @Tinybox
Tinybox#9112: @JustinXenyx There doesn't seem to be any vram cooling at all. 🤔 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/635486434589147180/unknown.png
Tinybox#9112: the r9 290 cooler im buying comes with just those two red marked thing, and of course the shroud with the fans
JustinXenyx#8854: you might be able to get away with those smaller copper heatsinks for the VRAM then
Tinybox#9112: alright, so I need to buy extra heatsinks.
Tinybox#9112: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07WSD65HZ |
Tinybox#9112: I bought a bunch of those suckers a few days ago
Tinybox#9112: Think ill be able to use them on the VRM? or vram?
JustinXenyx#8854: Oh fuck those for the VRM
JustinXenyx#8854: they might be fine for VRAM but for the VRM? fuck no
Tinybox#9112: alright
Tinybox#9112: so....I need to get some beefy VRM cooling.
Tinybox#9112: Ill get this cooler for 5 euros.
Tinybox#9112: Oi justin, wait.
@JustinXenyx Since this VRM cooling thingy is included
Tinybox#9112: you think I can just take a thermal pad.
Tinybox#9112: and slap it on there
Sashaaa#1699: .
BigPierogi#3368: .
Tinybox#9112: *hol up.

I noticed asus got properiety fan connectors @JustinXenyx https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/635522486141714432/unknown.png
Tinybox#9112: thats kinda gay, what does the 5th pin do anyway?
TheGeekster#8508: it's the DRM pin
TheGeekster#8508: if it's got two fans, two seperate PWM signals could be used
Tinybox#9112: Alright, got it, um would it be possible to use these fans..? @TheGeekster
Tinybox#9112: Can I just use a wire cutter to yeet of the extra bit
Tinybox#9112: Would both fans still spin :thinking_peter:
TheGeekster#8508: unsure tbh
JustinXenyx#8854: if there are 2 PWM pins and one gets yeeted like that it the fan with the lacking pwm signal probably will run at full speed because there is no PWM signal controlling it
Tinybox#9112: them I'm kinda at a loss of what to do.
If I get this cheap ass cooler, Ill need to yeet off the fans, and ghetto squeze two sharkoon silent wings, or ghetto squeze LC-POWER molex fans on it...or buy F8 fans....,
Plus ill need to get some sort of VRM cooling solution, since I can't get the included ones, without buying an entirely new...R9 290, so I might have some height troubles...,actually I probably will......
Well then, what do I do now?
I could get an aftermarket cooling solution, but under 20 euros, I can only find,
Arctic S2/S1 PLUS, which are supported because they do have the 53*3 mounting holes, Arctic twin turbo PRO, Arctic accelero mono plus, but all those got way lower TDP ratings VS an R9 290s TDP rating, so they might not be enough (I know TDP doesn't mean much, but it sure gives a little idea right?) |
Then this begs the question, are they adequate? Is it worth it?
Tinybox#9112: I guess I should ask, what would you choose or recommend me to choose?
JustinXenyx#8854: Sadly the TDP is a 100% artificial number made up by manufacturers that means literally nothing
JustinXenyx#8854: I'd still go with grabbing the ASUS heatsink, for 5€ you can't go wrong
Tinybox#9112: alright, then I should try figure out the dimensions for the VRM cooling from there?
JustinXenyx#8854: I'd try to figure that out when you have the card and the cooler
JustinXenyx#8854: Because then you can take direct measurements for height etc
Tinybox#9112: alright, I already got the card (the "best" mining card, from that haul), ill get the cooler tomorrow
replicon1#3968: Can anyone advise if it's possible to flash a motherboard BIOS to allow it to use a processor that it's not officially able to support? I have an Asus socket 775 motherboard and was able to get a quad core Zeon CPU that I thought would be fine as it's very similar to the standard quad core that the board officially supports but it won't accept it. Any help would be appreciated (save me having to fork out for another CPU at least). Thanks.
TheGeekster#8508: Unfortunately that's quite motherboard specific, sometimes motherboards will support a wider array of cpu's, sometimes they're quite limited, what board is it specifically and what cpu?
replicon1#3968: INTEL XEON X3330 2.66GHz Quad Core CPU - Asus P5K motherboard
SuSSudio#2688: P5K is P35 chipset, supports most 775 modded xeons
SuSSudio#2688: You just need a microcode mod to the BIOS & flash it with usb drive @replicon1
SuSSudio#2688: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/635799590779617280/775modxeonsupport.PNG
replicon1#3968: Thanks very much! Is that a pretty straightforward process? |
SuSSudio#2688: @replicon1 https://www.delidded.com/how-to-update-cpu-microcode-in-ami-bios/
SuSSudio#2688: Pay attention to every bit of the article, fiddling with bios isn't as easy as replacing lego parts
SuSSudio#2688: @replicon1 Actually, hold on
SuSSudio#2688: Alright, X3330's microcode is 1067A, just follow the steps in the website
TheGeekster#8508: I'd kinda just get a cpu that's compatible... unless it's for a project
SuSSudio#2688: ^^
not recommended if you're practicing with your only system
replicon1#3968: Friend was chucking his old PC in scrap heap, I stepped in and asked if I could try to get it running. Coolermaster Wavemaster Case in fairly decent condtion, replaced the GeForce 8800GT with an old 560ti I had from a while back and replaced the old 5400 speed HDD with an SSD and added a USB PCI card. Just need to upgrade the CPU and it should be capable of running some games at low - medium settings.
TheGeekster#8508: ahhh okay if it's a shits & giggles system, still, for the cost of an old cpu from that gen... would save a lot of time and effort
SuSSudio#2688: Imo isnt X3330 equal to C2Q Q9400
SuSSudio#2688: You'd better off with Q9400 if you havent bought X3330, but i'm probably too late
replicon1#3968: Truedat, I could use the Q3330 CPU in another build that's on the back burner.
SuSSudio#2688: If you wanna feel actual performance, X54xx is the way to go
replicon1#3968: It was only 13 quid on ebay, they said it runs like a Q8400 / Q9400
SuSSudio#2688: Cause they're mostly if not all features 820M transistors & 12MB of L2 |
replicon1#3968: Q9400 best bang for buck on these old boards?
SuSSudio#2688: For me yes
SuSSudio#2688: But people tend to favor Q6600 or Q8400 which has slightly lower performance
SuSSudio#2688: Q6600 was known for its OC capability, but it's still based on Kentsfield 65nm & still features 1066Mhz FSB
SuSSudio#2688: Also if you can find Q9550 with slightly higher price than Q9400 in your market, grab it, it has the mentioned 820m transistors & 12MB of L2 cache.
That will feed most mid 2010s or older games fine
replicon1#3968: Q9550 it is then. Ta
SuSSudio#2688: :TheGoods:
Tinybox#9112: @JustinXenyx you said I wouldn't get away with cooling the VRM with those bois?
+An S1 REV.2 just pooped up, for the same price...**new** would that be a better option, although the ASUS cooler no doubt has more cooling capacity, but perhaps the included heatsinks will make up for the value 🤔
Tinybox#9112: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/635829512973713418/unknown.png
JustinXenyx#8854: I doubt you can cool an R9 290 with an Accelero S1
Tinybox#9112: Well I can't find any 80mm-100mm heatsinks for the vrm with a 9mm width
Tinybox#9112: ;-; |
Tinybox#9112: I guess ill need to settle with a bunch of 9mm bois
Tinybox#9112: @JustinXenyx Although are you sure I can't cool the VRM with those heatsinks?
Tinybox#9112: I need something with more fins right? Or if you can call those things fins
JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah, you need something with more "meat" to it
JustinXenyx#8854: those little aluminium heatsinks just won't cut it
Tinybox#9112: Really can't find any longer ones, that would be able to cover up the entire thing.
So something with more height, or more fins.
got it
Tinybox#9112: if I have to order these suckers from amazon shipping will take ages :GWmythiFeelsBadMan:
Tinybox#9112: @JustinXenyx Ah well it seems the heatsinks are making this entire cooler thing not worth it at all.
JustinXenyx#8854: What about the VRM heatsink that comes with the ASUS card?
JustinXenyx#8854: You could probably use that if you modify it a bit
Tinybox#9112: If I buy heatsinks from amazon....
Can't even find fitting ones other than buying a bunch of these more heavy duty, |
It would cost me just below 3 euros which is no issue, but, the shipping would take ages, and if I choose express shipping Ill be looking at 5-6 euros which is the cost of the cooler itself or more ;-;.
On ebay I can't find anything FITTING at ALL.
On amazon it's only this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/635835698259427328/unknown.png
Tinybox#9112: I'd love to do that.
Tinybox#9112: But it's not included @JustinXenyx
Tinybox#9112: I wouldn't even need to modify it
Tinybox#9112: as my reference model has the screw holes the asus uses
JustinXenyx#8854: maybe ask if he could include it for a slight mark up?
Tinybox#9112: I doubt he'll throw it in, as he responded with.
"it's still on the card, so I can only offer the big cooler". When I asked for it the first time.
Tinybox#9112: but it's worth a shot
Tinybox#9112: oh I noticed something which is omega gay. |
I DONT EVEN HAVE HEATPADS :Hahahahaha: @JustinXenyx
Think I can get away with reusing the heatpads for the vram?
JustinXenyx#8854: Not something i'd recommend because thermalpads are cheap as fuck, but not THAT bad
Tinybox#9112: Well the thing is just..
any cheap asf thermal pads will take ages to arrive :Hahahahaha:
Tinybox#9112: welp the guy said no
Tinybox#9112: not possible
Tinybox#9112: It seems it might be worth it to buy the S1 JUST for the included heatsinks
Tinybox#9112: damn
Tinybox#9112: although funny thing, I doubt these heatsinks are any beefier than these @JustinXenyx https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/635842103108436016/unknown.png

Tinybox#9112: well what do you think I should do?
Tinybox#9112: Should I just eat it, and wait the days out and buy this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/635842284700827679/unknown.png
Tinybox#9112: Or should I buy the S1?
Tinybox#9112: Or should I just use the ones I already bought for another project (those white ones)? |
Exomilav#5434: sooo im going to try to DDU 6000/7000 series drivers with an FX card

Lady Mipha#0611: You would just have to select the other drivers
Raptor#0229: Hello there
Raptor#0229: can someone help me with a 775 system?
tdp2612#3835: hola
tdp2612#3835: go on, i might be able to help
Raptor#0229: Ok thanks
tdp2612#3835: ***maybe***
Raptor#0229: I have a mobo which (according to the site and to cpu upgrade) can support quad cores
tdp2612#3835: whats the board?
Raptor#0229: P5KQL or something like this
Raptor#0229: But the problem is that quad cores seem to thick to fit the socket |
tdp2612#3835: ? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/636127157193801739/1221433703.png
TheFifthAce#4128: are you using a xeon or a c2q
TheFifthAce#4128: because there is a difference between 771 and 775
tdp2612#3835: yeah
Raptor#0229: @tdp2612 Nope, let me restart the system and I'll tell you
TheFifthAce#4128: you probably have a 771 quad core
TheFifthAce#4128: which will not fit
Raptor#0229: Intel Core 2 Quad 8200 2.33Ghz
tdp2612#3835: hmm
TheFifthAce#4128: that should fit
Raptor#0229: P5QPL-AM 775 Mobo
Raptor#0229: On every site I checked it says that it supports quad cores
tdp2612#3835: yeah i mean online it supports it
tdp2612#3835: and its just a normal 775 chip
TheFifthAce#4128: it should be physically the same as the core 2 duos |
tdp2612#3835: did you have something in there before?
Raptor#0229: It still has a E8500
tdp2612#3835: ~~have you taken the e8500 out?~~
Raptor#0229: Nope
Raptor#0229: because I'm using it
tdp2612#3835: i mean when youre putting it 8200 in :DickPick:
tdp2612#3835: nah but take it out and put the 8200 in
Raptor#0229: I'd like to
tdp2612#3835: or just take the 85 out and put it in again a few times, it might just be it feels stiff to you
Raptor#0229: but it physically don't
tdp2612#3835: the e8500 doesnt come out?
Raptor#0229: Nono
Raptor#0229: it does
Raptor#0229: it's the Q8200
TheGeekster#8508: have you built a PC before? |
TheGeekster#8508: Not being condescending, genuinely want to know, because if not, i'd suggest looking up youtube build guides, just as a "ahh this goes there" "this is how you unhook a cpu" etc
Raptor#0229: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/636129624216174603/20191022_110848.jpg
Raptor#0229: @TheGeekster Yes
Raptor#0229: 5 or 6 times
Raptor#0229: the Q8200 is way "thicker" than the E7500 for example
Raptor#0229: and I've never seen a cpu not fit the socket like that
TheGeekster#8508: won't lie, on that picture they kinda look identical, so it physically does not fit in the slot? do the pin arrangements on the back look the same?
Raptor#0229: It's hard to explain
Raptor#0229: like
Raptor#0229: *really professional words in coming*
tdp2612#3835: theyre the same lol
Raptor#0229: the "green base" of the cpu where under under it there is the "gold dots"
tdp2612#3835: the pins stick out on the board though, itll clear
tdp2612#3835: as long as its rotated right, itll go in
Raptor#0229: the 8200 is literally higher |
Raptor#0229: than the others
tdp2612#3835: i promise you it will fit
Raptor#0229: it is rotated right
tdp2612#3835: the height from where it touches the pins to where the heatsink goes on will be identical
Raptor#0229: mh
SuSSudio#2688: There's no way a cpu designed for the socket can't fit
DarknessFalls229#2286: ^
Lady Mipha#0611: ^
Raptor#0229: that's why I an asking for help
SuSSudio#2688: My Q9450 is thicker than E8400 & fits without an issue
SuSSudio#2688: Asus P5G41T-M LX 3 is my board & has the exact same socket design
DarknessFalls229#2286: ive used a E8400 and Q8400 in the same socket of two motherboards
DarknessFalls229#2286: ought to be fine
Raptor#0229: This afternoon I'll see
SuSSudio#2688: If it still doesn't want to fit something must've been bent or you had a manufacturing defect to your mobo |
Raptor#0229: when I'll check it out
Raptor#0229: I'll send pictures explaining what I mean
tdp2612#3835: just shove it if it doesnt fit
thatubuntuguy#5914: that's a great way to bend pins mate
tdp2612#3835: itll be fineeeeeee
TheFifthAce#4128: It's worth more in scrap than as a working board anyways
TheFifthAce#4128: :flushh: :flushh:
Tinybox#9112: @JustinXenyx Bought the cooler and then noticed: They aren't compatible, it would take a huge amount of work to make them compatible as well.
Tinybox#9112: Welp, Ill go buy the S1 I guess, and hope it does the job with a UVed R9 290.
Or ill try find something else
Tinybox#9112: I guess the good thing on this cooler, is that now I have a spare fan for my RX 580
Raptor#0229: @tdp2612 K I'm back
Raptor#0229: so
Raptor#0229: Trying to see if it works
Raptor#0229: i hate Intel stock coolers |
Raptor#0229: I problably broke the mobo
Raptor#0229: nice
tdp2612#3835: if you put it in right you cant have
Raptor#0229: Nah
Raptor#0229: I mean I bent it
Raptor#0229: The cpu fits now
Raptor#0229: just have to see if it turns on
tdp2612#3835: you cant have bent any pins if all you did was take the 85 out and put the 82 in
Raptor#0229: nah
Raptor#0229: I BENT THE MOBO
Raptor#0229: *probably*

Jam#0384: Just get the 2600 if you can find it for sub $40
JustinXenyx#8854: Nah GTA IV is a fuck fest with optimizations
Jam#0384: You clearly don’t know anything about GTA IV
JustinXenyx#8854: Runs like shit on the best of computers because it's a majorly shit port
Deleted User#0000: this is the problem intel had the market from 2011 to 2016 and all they pumped out for the mid range aka consumers where 4 core cpus
tdp2612#3835: i know what its like, its just i reckon i can run it
tdp2612#3835: especially with it being an out of date system, theoretically should be better suited |
Jam#0384: Anyone can run it now. Nobody can run it well
JustinXenyx#8854: No it fucking wouldn't be better suited lmao
JustinXenyx#8854: It runs even worse on systems from it's time
Jam#0384: Honestly considering that you think shorting the power supply pins twice could break something, you shouldn’t be stating things as facts :Hahahahaha:

tdp2612#3835: i take everything back

Jam#0384: You could get an overclockable 2600K one for that if you wanted
JustinXenyx#8854: Well, what did i say? :haha:
tdp2612#3835: admittedly this is 1440 but hes only getting like 40 average with siilar specs
thatubuntuguy#5914: what the hell
Jam#0384: It would probably run the same or worse at 1080
thatubuntuguy#5914: i never knew gta iv was so terrible
JustinXenyx#8854: Oh it's a MAJOR shitfest @thatubuntuguy |
Jam#0384: It’s pretty bad
tdp2612#3835: also i didnt say it would break anything, just somethings getting confused maybe
thatubuntuguy#5914: it looks fucking dreadful
Jam#0384: That’s not how shorting pins work
JustinXenyx#8854: WYM shorting pins? Like shorting pins on a motherboard? @Jam
Jam#0384: Shorting the power pins wont confuse anything :Heyyy:
Jam#0384: Yeah
JustinXenyx#8854: Oh that's not even a proper short
Jam#0384: He said something about how it could confuse something if you did that
Jam#0384: Possibly
Jam#0384: Its literally just like pressing the power button
JustinXenyx#8854: There's no proper voltage on those pins, just 2 open pins that need to be closed
Jam#0384: @JustinXenyx I know I was just using the terminology they were
Deleted User#0000: I think the motherboard is dead
Deleted User#0000: Might give that i3 to my cousin because he only has a lga1155 pentium |

Jam#0384: 1150 boards aren’t cheap even the not great ones
Deleted User#0000: I mean 1150 lol
Deleted User#0000: Got confused
Deleted User#0000: I think it's the anaversery one
Jam#0384: I used LGA1150 until 2019
Jam#0384: Before that I was using a mobile core 2 chip
Deleted User#0000: I think it will make a difference because of that hyper threading and slight clock boost
Jam#0384: It will make a huge difference
Jam#0384: Twice as many threads too
Jam#0384: Iirc
Jam#0384: But two and four cores are really not going to be enough for a good experience starting very very soon
boog#9487: Would a i7 3770 bottle neck a rtx 2070 too much? I'm planning on getting a valve index vr headset (if I can save up) but need to power to run it and I will upgrade my cpu to a ryzen 7 2700x later
TheGeekster#8508: it's not ideal, but it should be okay for now
boog#9487: Alright |
boog#9487: Well time to wait for my shit to sell and then I'ma buy a 2070
TheFifthAce#4128: dont get a 2700x @boog
TheFifthAce#4128: get a 3600
TheFifthAce#4128: far better in games
boog#9487: The 2700x is like way cheaper
TheGeekster#8508: 2700x should be alright for the foreseeable future at the mo
TheGeekster#8508: less efficient but eh so what, use bigger cooler 😩
TheFifthAce#4128: how much cheaper
TheFifthAce#4128: because you wont notice any difference in most games from the 2700x to the 2600x
TheFifthAce#4128: they both have the same single core (actually 2600x boosts higher so its slightly better)
TheFifthAce#4128: so the 2600x might even be a better option
TheGeekster#8508: OHH you meant 2600, you put 3600
TheFifthAce#4128: no
TheFifthAce#4128: I meant 3600
TheFifthAce#4128: the 2700x has been getting cheaper yeah |
TheFifthAce#4128: but theres no benefit to the extra cores
TheFifthAce#4128: might as well cut some extra cost and go 2600x
SuSSudio#2688: or just wait for ryzen 4000
TheFifthAce#4128: ye
TheFifthAce#4128: then get a 3600
TheFifthAce#4128: :DANCE:
MythologicalZ#3752: 2700x is only good if you need it for physics
MythologicalZ#3752: 3600 smashes it gaming wise
boog#9487: Huh
boog#9487: Well Ill get a 3600 it's the same price but if it's better I'll get it
Treeman Terry#1884: hey guys
Treeman Terry#1884: ive got a i5 6600k oc'd to 4.5ghz
Treeman Terry#1884: and i wanna get a new cpu
Treeman Terry#1884: but my motherboard only supports 6th and 7th gen lga 1151
Treeman Terry#1884: so is it worth getting a 7th gen i7 |
Treeman Terry#1884: or should i get a new motherboard
MythologicalZ#3752: I'd sell off your 1151 stuff while it's still worth something and get on Am4 asap
MythologicalZ#3752: Kabylake runs hot as shit and is 4c/8t meme
Treeman Terry#1884: ok
Treeman Terry#1884: i dont really know much abt am4 cpus
Treeman Terry#1884: what would u suggest
Treeman Terry#1884: it would be a while before i could afford one
MythologicalZ#3752: 3600 and a decent B450
MythologicalZ#3752: If you have 2666+ RAM currently you can reuse that
Treeman Terry#1884: yh
Treeman Terry#1884: thats fine
Treeman Terry#1884: ive got a decent ram kit
Treeman Terry#1884: ok
Treeman Terry#1884: which b450s are good?
MythologicalZ#3752: MSI have the better boards atm,just make sure it's a Max version |
MythologicalZ#3752: Reports of issues on the normal B450s
Treeman Terry#1884: https://www.amazon.co.uk/MSI-B450-TOMAHAWK-MAX-Motherboard/dp/B07VB2BG3X/ref=pd_sbs_147_t_0/262-9952491-8272240?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B07VB2BG3X&pd_rd_r=9959a649-72ec-409c-a29e-bd78d355c2f2&pd_rd_w=3ieYl&pd_rd_wg=zfCBP&pf_rd_p=e44592b5-e56d-44c2-a4f9-dbdc09b29395&pf_rd_r=NZQDJK177ZPNW5D3YPVZ&psc=1&refRID=NZQDJK177ZPNW5D3YPVZ
Treeman Terry#1884: like this?
MythologicalZ#3752: Yeah that's a solid option
Treeman Terry#1884: awesome
Treeman Terry#1884: where would you recommend selling my cpu and motherboard
MythologicalZ#3752: eBay or local uses sites
MythologicalZ#3752: I'm assuming you're in the UK, so something like Gumtree would work
MythologicalZ#3752: Could try Cex but they don't really pay much for parts when they're buying
Treeman Terry#1884: ok
Treeman Terry#1884: ouch
Treeman Terry#1884: they only buy for £51
MythologicalZ#3752: Yeah you can definitely get more for a 6600K than that
Treeman Terry#1884: yh
Treeman Terry#1884: ill have a look at gumtree and ebay |
Treeman Terry#1884: see what the prices are like
Treeman Terry#1884: also
Treeman Terry#1884: gpu-wise
Treeman Terry#1884: i only i have sc 1060 6gb
Treeman Terry#1884: is that ok to use with a ryzen 3600 for the meantime
Treeman Terry#1884: while i saved up for a gpu
Treeman Terry#1884: or is it a massive bottleneck
MythologicalZ#3752: It'll be fine
Treeman Terry#1884: awseome
Treeman Terry#1884: ah bollocks
Treeman Terry#1884: need to do a bios update on the motherbaord i think
Treeman Terry#1884: wait
MythologicalZ#3752: Max should ship with Zen 2 out of the box
MythologicalZ#3752: Worst case it has USB flashback so you don't need a CPU to update
Treeman Terry#1884: nevermind im dumb https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/636514236214018059/unknown.png |

TheFifthAce#4128: @Treeman Terry I used an r5 2600 with a 1060 without issues

TheFifthAce#4128: and it has the same vrm config and similar cooling
Treeman Terry#1884: ok thx
Raptor#0229: Ok it works
Raptor#0229: Does someone know a cheap and reliable cooler? Which is not the Intel Stock one?
TheFifthAce#4128: how cheap
IRON MAIDEN#4184: ^
TheFifthAce#4128: cheap as in 10
TheFifthAce#4128: 40
TheFifthAce#4128: 70?
TheFifthAce#4128: like we don't have a frame of reference and I have different reccomendations based on each pricepoint
TheFifthAce#4128: @Raptor
Raptor#0229: Below 20 and Up 30 is no |
Raptor#0229: between 20 and 30
Galilool#3398: arctic freezer 34
Galilool#3398: or Alpenföhn Brocken Eco
JustinXenyx#8854: 20 to 30 what? US-Dollars? Euros? Tunisian Dinar?
IRON MAIDEN#4184: 212?
Tinybox#9112: I took a closer look at the market...
It seems I have no choice, but to attempt to use an Arctic accelero S1 rev2 on this R9 290, its the only cooler that fits in this budget..
Or I buy an Arctic accelero Extreme II (three fans) with a GTX 275 for 18 Euros...
Only issue with that^ I don't know the amount of hestsinks used/I'd still need 2) I got no extra thermal pads...
So my questions are,
1) Is the S1 really compatible? It should be right, it's got a decent height above the PCB, and it's compatible with a HD 5670, and a 6790, so it should have R9 290s 53x53, because the 5670 does too...
2) Will the S1 be capable of cooling an Undervolted R9 290 with 2 fans slapped onto it?
3) Is it worth it's 5 euro price, (I think it is alone for the heatsinks included)
thatubuntuguy#5914: @Raptor deepcool gammaxx 400
thatubuntuguy#5914: Got mine for about £20 |
thatubuntuguy#5914: Enough to cool a 5ghz 2500K
JustinXenyx#8854: Even with a decently undervolted R9 290 i think the S1 lacks the mass to remove the heat from the R9 290 @Tinybox
JustinXenyx#8854: However, i could be wrong with that ~~because i never have owned a modern Accelero S1, only a predecessor of it~~
JustinXenyx#8854: hold on, i DID OWN a Accelero S1 but it was paired with a shitty low power HD5670 with no fans lol
Tinybox#9112: @JustinXenyx
Should I just try waiting around for longer?
JustinXenyx#8854: I'd probably go with the Accelero Extreme II to be honest, it's a nice GPU cooler
yark#6609: What would be a good CPU for me to upgrade to? I currently have an i5 4590.
SussyBalls#4615: Board?
SussyBalls#4615: If you can save for ryzen
if not get a 4770 or 4770k depending on your board and cooler
SuSSudio#2688: ^
Jam#0384: 4770 or 4770K will be a poor investment
Jam#0384: We’re talking like $125-$200 depending on market
Jam#0384: Poor value |
MythologicalZ#3752: ^
Jam#0384: At that point, may as well save up the extra $200 on top of that and get a better platform with a 3600 and 8/16GB in dual channel
MythologicalZ#3752: Not bad chips but most prices will be super high since Haswell meme
Jam#0384: Yep
Jam#0384: I can vouch for Haswell not being bad
Jam#0384: I have both a 4770K and 4790K, but for the price it’s not worth
Jam#0384: I would keep the i5 until you have enough to upgrade to a 2700X or 3600 or 3400, whatever fits your needs best for what you’re willing to pay
Jam#0384: I would stick with Ryzen 3000 for games but the 2700X is cheap enough if you need the extra cores
Raptor#0229: @thatubuntuguy Thanks
Tinybox#9112: @JustinXenyx After ages of searching I found a Xigmatek BIFROST II (aka VD1065)
It's should be 100% compatible, just no heatsinks, but that's fine if he agress to the 10 euros, ill get the Arctic S1 along with it, take the VRM heatsink, and keep the cooler and the other heatsinks, and of course **HEAT PADSSS**
I think it should be enough to cool the R9 290 boi, after all it's got 5 Heat pipes a decent mass, and 2K RPM fans (20DB ofcourse ill use VCC to control them though), and it lies above the PCB by quite a bit. by an entire slot it seems
Troika#3974: What's an R9 390X comparable to against currnet gpus?
MythologicalZ#3752: Essentially a 580 but hotter
Troika#3974: Ty~ |
kittycat959#2895: @Troika i just got the 290x and can confirm it is about the same as a 1060
kittycat959#2895: also enough to overload a small nuclear power station
thatubuntuguy#5914: A 580 but hotter :OmegaxD: :RginHd: lmao that made my day
Lady Mipha#0611: :GWcorbinHolyFuck: :Hahahahaha:
Tinybox#9112: @Tech Helper
damn there is a 1600x for dirt cheap 50 euros, but it's quite far away and comes with no cooler.
If I get that, Ill need to buy another cooler, for 5 euros, and I'd need to drive somewhere to get that cooler as well. ;-;
Might make up for that fuel cost...
And the guy seems to be making an excuse on why he can't test it, I didn't even ask about testing yet
"I got a system rendering, and I don't really like letting people into my home". :thinking_peter:
So the 1600 is 60 euros, comes with a cooler (orignal wraith spire), comes with WLP (MX4) and is even close to me..
So if you ignore the huge amount of wasted time to get to the 1600x, but dont ignore the fuel cost. It would total to 60 euros as well..
So is the 1600x worth it in the end over the same priced 1600?
What would you get?
Tinybox#9112: @Deleted User Try cleaning the fans if they are dirty. |
Tinybox#9112: Or just using an aircan.
Tinybox#9112: @Deleted User I thought he seemed shady too, because bruh "I havent sold anything advanced yet how do I do the testing/show" this was in the first message.
I respondend with "I'd just like to see it in the bios".
"I don't like letting people in my home, and I got a system rendering here"
"So, is no test okay with you?"
Me: (no response yet)
Tinybox#9112: I don't know
Tinybox#9112: I doubt he doesn't know how to test, or how he would do it.
After all, this dude wrote he upgraded to a 3700x.
And even gave "overclocking" numbers.
Tinybox#9112: @Deleted User yea thanks a lot for that chat lad.
I came to the conclusion, even if it's legit it's definently not worth the time I'd spend.
I'd definently pay like 5-10 euros in fuel just to drive there, then I'D need to get a cooler, which is gonna yield me about 7 euros.
Totals above the 60 euros and a MASSIVE amount of time will be spent.

JustinXenyx#8854: that's basically new pricing for that kinda ssd

JustinXenyx#8854: Considering you're upgrading from AM3+ i'd assume you'd have a dedicated graphics card, so why bother with an APU? @mxckzy
Yamas8604#5285: the 2600 is about the same price and is a better buy
mxckzy#0744: I have an r9 280x
JustinXenyx#8854: You're thinking about the 2400G, the 2200G is a decent bit cheaper than them @Yamas8604
mxckzy#0744: Im buyijg the cpu from cex simce i dont have much money
TheFifthAce#4128: get a 1600
mxckzy#0744: I only have 130
Yamas8604#5285: for a new board and cpu?
mxckzy#0744: I have 60 for cpu
TheFifthAce#4128: 2200g is 62 on cex
TheFifthAce#4128: honestly too much money
Yamas8604#5285: how much is the 2400g |
TheFifthAce#4128: 4c4t is kinda lame
TheFifthAce#4128: go for something like an r5 1400/1600
mxckzy#0744: I already bave my gou
mxckzy#0744: Gpu
mxckzy#0744: Ive had it for ages
Yamas8604#5285: 1600 if you can its 6c/12t
mxckzy#0744: I cant afford
mxckzy#0744: I have around 60 for cpu
Yamas8604#5285: there is the r3 1200 but i dont really recommend it
DarknessFalls229#2286: SMT and extra cores makes ryzen really worth it
JustinXenyx#8854: I'd rather go R3 1200 than 2200G tbf if you already have a graphics card
DarknessFalls229#2286: so its nice if you can stretch to a 1400 or 1600
DarknessFalls229#2286: or just save money with the 1200
DarknessFalls229#2286: in any case, get good ram as it IS first gen ryzen
Yamas8604#5285: well he only has 60 to spend on the cpu and on cex the 1200 is 42 |
DarknessFalls229#2286: CEX isnt always the best in deals
JustinXenyx#8854: Pretty sure you can get a regular R5 1400 locally for about 60 quid
JustinXenyx#8854: Yeah, CeX can have some shit pricing sometimes when it comes to PC Hardware
Yamas8604#5285: you could probably get a 1600 for 60 quid if you looked hard enough
JustinXenyx#8854: ~~pretty sure you can get em off Ali for that much~~ nevermind
DarknessFalls229#2286: 99 bucks
SussyBalls#4615: No point in buying apus if you won't use the apu, remember that the apus use previous generation cores, so a 2200g is just a 1200 with higher clockspeeds
TheFifthAce#4128: @SussyBalls 2200g also has less cache
TheFifthAce#4128: since its a single ccx
TheFifthAce#4128: while the 1200 is dual ccx
thatubuntuguy#5914: don't get a 2400g
thatubuntuguy#5914: better off with a 1600 if you can stretch
thatubuntuguy#5914: its a far better cpu
thatubuntuguy#5914: and since you have a 280x you don't need apu
thatubuntuguy#5914: i have a variant of the 280x btw ❤ i have the 7970 which is basically the same card but with lower clocks |
thatubuntuguy#5914: welcome to the club
Jam#0384: I have a 280X as well just not as my main
Jam#0384: It's like my 4th best
Jam#0384: I can confirm it's plenty good
Tinybox#9112: @TheFifthAce oi if you got a little bit time, or of course someone else.
Which one is better, and is it good enough for an RX 580 + R5 1600,
I guess you could say I listed up some PSUs, are they alright or should I spend more, for more reliability?
(The condition I set for them is at least 30AMPs (total for both 12V))
FSP35060APN (Excluding this one)
FSP400-60EMDN
FSP400-60MDN
TheFifthAce#4128: :flushh:
TheFifthAce#4128: Im at target
TheFifthAce#4128: Ping me in 30 min
TheFifthAce#4128: I will look |
Tinybox#9112: alright
TheFifthAce#4128: either of thsoe are prolly fine

Deleted User#0000: yeah fans turn pn
Deleted User#0000: On*
Deleted User#0000: At normal levels

tdp2612#3835: have you tried a different output ie vga not hdmi etc
Deleted User#0000: Vip
Deleted User#0000: Yip*
Deleted User#0000: tried all outputs
tdp2612#3835: have you got spare components to test stuff
Deleted User#0000: Ye
Deleted User#0000: I have quite literally a copy of the system
tdp2612#3835: does that one power on fine
Deleted User#0000: Yes
tdp2612#3835: have you tried swapping everything one by one
Deleted User#0000: Not yet
Deleted User#0000: So far I've tried working ram in the not working system and it hasn't worked
tdp2612#3835: id probably say swap the non working stuff into the working one
Deleted User#0000: Well ima swap the processors next
Deleted User#0000: because ik it's not the power supplies |
Deleted User#0000: Okay so the processor out of the not working one, works @tdp2612
Deleted User#0000: So it's the board
tdp2612#3835: :Oof:
Deleted User#0000: Well that's one out of 6 not working then
Deleted User#0000: pretty decent odds I guess
SuSSudio#2688: https://wccftech.com/europeans-are-leaving-the-intel-train-to-find-the-joys-of-amd/
Ramiere#1840: Best LGA 1155 chip right now?
Xbox 360 1953#2640: I'm thinking maybe the i7 3770k
SuSSudio#2688: https://wccftech.com/amd-outsells-intel-in-korea-for-first-time-in-history-doubles-sales-in-europe/
JustinXenyx#8854: @Ramiere 3770K is the best theoretical chip, but pricy and not really worth it. the i7 2600 is much better priced tho
TheFifthAce#4128: or a xeon e3 1230
TheFifthAce#4128: half the price of a 2600 for similar performance
CaptainFlanger#2563: Owned an i7 3770 (non K) and it works well enough.
tdp2612#3835: @TheFifthAce you reckon?
tdp2612#3835: every time i look theyre maybe a bit cheaper than a 2600, but not by much |
TheFifthAce#4128: I got one for 30$ shipped
TheFifthAce#4128: meanwhile I see 2600s for 50$+
tdp2612#3835: im looking rn and i can find 1230s for 40 to 50
TheFifthAce#4128: and I'm certain you could get one cheaper by posting on hws
TheFifthAce#4128: what country are you in
tdp2612#3835: england
tdp2612#3835: 2600s are like 30 to 40
TheFifthAce#4128: wack

tdp2612#3835: admittedly this is with the i7s basically all being on bids
TheFifthAce#4128: bids dont count

LuminousFuture#5919: how much you guys think a r7 260x is worth?
DarknessFalls229#2286: 15-20 bucks?
mxckzy#0744: hey does anyone know my gpu from the specs https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/639176866573320193/unknown.png
mxckzy#0744: i believe i got it as an r9 280x but my specs and the stuff online dont match up at all
TheGeekster#8508: where did you get it from?
TheGeekster#8508: that's a R9 270x, googled the device ID
mxckzy#0744: maybe it was loll
mxckzy#0744: i cant remember since i have issue with one fan not spinning |
Capsaicin Chips#4051: I've recently gotten this Mobo as an late birthday gift. How good is it overall? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/639179354517274674/198_20191030140605335.jpg
Galilool#3398: AsRock Pro4 boards usually are passable, not too good, but also not rancy. You can have some fun eith it, just don't expect too much
Capsaicin Chips#4051: Alrighty, thanks man
Galilool#3398: Asrock isn't exactly known for the *excellent* VRMs on the Pro lineup, so don't try to hit 5 Ghz allcore at 1,5 volts with this, tho a medium OC might be just right
Capsaicin Chips#4051: Would you say that a 4.0 Ghz all-core overclock would suffice?
Capsaicin Chips#4051: I am rather new to overclocking.
Galilool#3398: what CPU?
Deleted User#0000: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/639183159757504512/20191030_192524.jpg
Deleted User#0000: The good old, lenovo drinking center
Galilool#3398: don't drink and drive mateys
Capsaicin Chips#4051: Core i7 8700k
Galilool#3398: 4 ghz allcore should be in the range of possibilities, but keep an eeye on the thermals
Galilool#3398: coffee lake runs hot af
Capsaicin Chips#4051: I'll keep that in mind.
Galilool#3398: the main problem with cl thermals is that intel insisted on using their excuse for a thermal paste between the die and the ihs, which is the reason why it might run hot despite your huge ass cooler, but that shouldn't be much of a problem at 4 ghz |
mxckzy#0744: anyone know how to troubleshoot a fan thats not spinning
Capsaicin Chips#4051: I plan on using a better thermal paste, since I've seen how bad Intel's "thermal paste" is
Capsaicin Chips#4051: Would the Hyper 212 Evo be adequate for cooling?
tdp2612#3835: i mean its still the best budget air cooler on the market, but for a well known hot chip and overclocking
tdp2612#3835: id say try google it, see if theres anyone who has tried it
tdp2612#3835: just as its quite an expensive setup, might be worth spending the bit more on maybe water cooling
Capsaicin Chips#4051: I would try water cooling, but I am skittish that what I do will mess up the motherboard because of a leak.
tdp2612#3835: ive got space for a big radiator on my new case but im still using my 212
tdp2612#3835: but then i have a shit old i5 locked at 3ghz that doesnt even reach 60 degrees under full load in stress tests
tdp2612#3835: although if i put the stock cooler back on it would get up to 73 and sit there just with a round of csgo
Connor#8613: Hi everyone, about to order a new PC. Just wondering, is the aorus elite b450 mobo compatible with the ryzen 5 3600?
tdp2612#3835: yeah everywhere im looking is saying it would be a solid choice if you were going to keep base clocks, but any serious oc would be an issue unless you wanted to keep it under 4 at which point its not worth it
tdp2612#3835: https://www.gigabyte.com/uk/Motherboard/B450-AORUS-ELITE-rev-10/support#support-cpu
tdp2612#3835: @Connor needs a bios update potentially depending on whats on the mb but yes it will do coming straight from the source
Connor#8613: Okay thank you very much for getting back to me. P.s would I need to reinstall windows on my current m.2 drive which I am hoping to keep. Also, would I need to use my old CPU to update bios upon setting up |
Capsaicin Chips#4051: Alrighty, I'll keep it in mind.
tdp2612#3835: hmmm
Capsaicin Chips#4051: Thanks
tdp2612#3835: thats well beyond my knowledge sorry
tdp2612#3835: i guess looking at the list it looks like theres 3 different versions, i guess use one that works on the earliest revision and you should have it working for sure
Connor#8613: ah okay, thanks for your help. It's a bit beyond me too. As long as I know that they are compatible I can go ahead with the order and think about updating bios when it arrives and is setup. I have a ryzen 3 1200 lying around somewhere that I would be able to use with the new mobo straight out of the box to update it
tdp2612#3835: ah thats listed under F1, so i assume that should work no matter which comes on it
Connor#8613: Oh okay, I'm stressing a bit that I am going to order the wrong bits and be up the creek without a paddle. It's my first solo PC build :X
tdp2612#3835: youre going in the deeper end than me, i just bought a working prebuilt and just dicked about from there :DickPick:
tdp2612#3835: lot easier when i know the cpu wont need a new bios before itll work, considering it was already in there
Connor#8613: ah yeah, I'm trying to do it cheaper than a prebuild will set me back. Either way, I know that the chip is compatible with the board, even if I need to update the bios. Thanks for your help
tdp2612#3835: no problem
tdp2612#3835: what gpu are you looking at then, considering youre already spending big bucks on an r5
Connor#8613: rtx 2060super 8GB
tdp2612#3835: why that over a 5700? |
Connor#8613: I know nvidia better I guess :) I was mainly basing my research around the gtx 1080/1080ti. That lead me to the 2060, which then lead me to the 2060 super
tdp2612#3835: ah
tdp2612#3835: just as i had a mate who was set on a 2060 after outgroing his 1060 3gb, but then at the last minute swapped to a 5700
DarknessFalls229#2286: sounds pretty biased, just go with the best price to performance
DarknessFalls229#2286: and remember to look out for vendors and cooler types
tdp2612#3835: honestly id say just go for the one that looks best
tdp2612#3835: or the one :Shit_company: has in stock :DickPick:
DarknessFalls229#2286: haha no
Connor#8613: thanks, I might have a 2nd look and see if I'm still going to go with nvidia. is the 5700 more expensive?
DarknessFalls229#2286: theyre around the same price range iirc
tdp2612#3835: i have literally no idea, id just check amazon
DarknessFalls229#2286: gamers nexus has pretty good comparable benchmarks for the GPUs, if you dont mind the chatter
tdp2612#3835: i normally just use userbenchmark tbh, always first result on google :DickPick:
IRON MAIDEN#4184: i want to get the 5700XT red devil just for looks xD
tdp2612#3835: sort of weird, on amazon basically all the 2060s are proper but all the 5700s are blowers |
tdp2612#3835: or at least a much higher ratio
tdp2612#3835: anyway though id consider the 5700 just for keeping it all amd
DarknessFalls229#2286: looking at the charts, the 5700 is about on par maybe slightly faster than the 2060 super, the 5700xt is a little bit below the 2070 super
DarknessFalls229#2286: so between the 2060 super and the 5700 just pick the one thats cheaper and has a good cooler
tdp2612#3835: ^ yeah thats probably the best idea in reality
tdp2612#3835: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/639195109073747978/DSC_0110.JPG

tdp2612#3835: in reality i got lucky with my colours
tdp2612#3835: ill ask my friend where he got the 5700, i assume it must have been a decent offer
TheFifthAce#4128: 5700 is generally 100$ cheaper than the 2060 super so thats a dab moment
tdp2612#3835: :dAB:
Lady Mipha#0611: :dAB:
tdp2612#3835: my mate just bought it off overclockers, seems reasonable for one with proper cooling

tdp2612#3835: same colour?
Rinis#2222: yes
tdp2612#3835: woop woop
TheFifthAce#4128: Can I put my 1060 in my pc alongside my rx 5700 and then use either one for a specific game?
TheFifthAce#4128: because the 1060 rapes the 5700 in opengl
TheGeekster#8508: *kinda*
TheFifthAce#4128: this means 2733 right https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/545181464363401216/639223790550646787/unknown.png
Officialy#2961: double it basically @TheFifthAce
Officialy#2961: My question time :P
Okay so, im wanting to do VR right. My mate has a 2060 super lying around doing nothing.
I have a 2070 super in my PC, with 3 monitors connected.
No spare HDMI port.
Would i be able to plonk the 2060 super into my PC, hookup two of my monitors (not my main one) and then connect my vr headset to my 2070 super? |
tdp2612#3835: umm
tdp2612#3835: i mean can you run them in sli?
Officialy#2961: sli is dead
Officialy#2961: and not for rtx
Officialy#2961: also two different gpus
Officialy#2961: 2070 super
2060 super
tdp2612#3835: whats the software sli thing called
Officialy#2961: ??
tdp2612#3835: nah im probably chatting out my arse
Officialy#2961: rtx doesnt have sli at all
Officialy#2961: well
Officialy#2961: technically they do, just nothing really supports it
tdp2612#3835: dw just ait for someone knowledgable to help
Officialy#2961: heh |
Galilool#3398: You can use an additional physx accelerator and I think you can use them as seperate display adapters but this is only possible on some Mainboards afaik
mxckzy#0744: Is the amd a10 9700 any good
Rinis#2222: not really
mxckzy#0744: Would a ryzen be better
Rinis#2222: yea, its a lil bit more expensive but it's worth it
mxckzy#0744: Do i get a better motherboard and worse cpu or little worse motherboard and better cpu
tdp2612#3835: the latter
tdp2612#3835: id argue it will have much less of an effect on performance
mxckzy#0744: Ryzen 3 1300x
mxckzy#0744: 8gb ddr4
mxckzy#0744: Gigabyte h310m
mxckzy#0744: Thats what imma get probably
Tinybox#9112: personally recommend you go for a 1200 instead.
The 1300x is just higher clocked.
2) H310M IS NOT AM4 ding dong, it's Intel, it's prob written on the box 😅 |
Tinybox#9112: The 1200 is cheaper, and it clocks to about the same point.
Tinybox#9112: A lot cheaper.
mxckzy#0744: Nvm wrong site lmfaooo
Tinybox#9112: Papa are you buying new?
mxckzy#0744: Im buying mobo and ram new

mxckzy#0744: A320 m
Tinybox#9112: @mxckzy That motherboard is not for AMD CPUs.
mxckzy#0744: Mobo
Tinybox#9112: you can throw a320m out of the window.
mxckzy#0744: How come
Tinybox#9112: Don't go for anything that isn't
B350/B450/X370/X470/X570
Tinybox#9112: @mxckzy A320 is shit, a lot of features are cut most notably, overclocking. |
Tinybox#9112: Also ignore any Motherboard instantly that doesn't have VRM cooling.
Tinybox#9112: So;
mxckzy#0744: If i get ryzen 3 1200
mxckzy#0744: Ill have 75 for a mobo

mxckzy#0744: May be a stupid question
Tinybox#9112: @mxckzy
Yes you can (to the atx question) , however I recommend buying an ASROCK PRO4 (B450)
Or an MSI gaming plus instead.
Tinybox#9112: Also um I strongly recommend you use multiple websites..., and get at least 16GB of memory..., unless you really need to scrape
mxckzy#0744: Im going to be getting more ram very soon after

Tinybox#9112: Don't get the -f
Tinybox#9112: Can you get the standard one?
Tinybox#9112: The -f is a downgrade.
mxckzy#0744: I could get a pro4 b350 but mot b450 |

Tinybox#9112: You sure you can't get a B450 one?
mxckzy#0744: I cant unfortunately its out of budget
mxckzy#0744: Unless i got cheaper ram
Tinybox#9112: What's the budget?
mxckzy#0744: 160
mxckzy#0744: For ram mobo and cpu
Tinybox#9112: The total in the last screenshot was 146?
Tinybox#9112: should be able to spend about ~14ish on top of the 66 pounds?
mxckzy#0744: Lh yeh it was
TheFifthAce#4128: @Tinybox aaaaa
mxckzy#0744: Didmt even realised lol
TheFifthAce#4128: pro vdh plus is good???
TheFifthAce#4128: why reccomend pro4
TheFifthAce#4128: hoes mad |
TheFifthAce#4128: the pro vdh plus is a better board
TheFifthAce#4128: also the f isnt a downgrade, its the same vrm layout

TheFifthAce#4128: it just has different usb config and has a different display output for igpus
mxckzy#0744: What about this @Tinybox
TheFifthAce#4128: that board is the same as the pro vdh plus it just has a 3rd gen ready bios]

mxckzy#0744: The pro vdh one
Xbox 360 1953#2640: What's LLC?
Tinybox#9112: @TheFifthAce yea the -f is a downgrade in terms of ports, plus I find the pro vdh (non plus), to be slightly worse than the pro4.
Also I discovered something weird..
I was wondering why my Windows was activated, even though I touched nothing.
I used a key finder, and it gave me the key like normal however I felt like I had seen that key before, so I checked the family PC, the key was the same.
So, how the fuck is that possible, My PC isn't on the same MS Account, in fact, my PC doesn't use an MS account at all. |
How did my "OEM" KEY I bought from EBAY be APPROVED ON BOTH OF MY PCs?!
Does my Windows Installation USB have magic powers?! Is it bugged?
Tinybox#9112: @Xbox 360 1953
Load line calibration
Tinybox#9112: Basically it's gives your CPU a bit more Voltage when it needs it..
***I guess*** but this is just a rough way of describing it
This Setting is quite useful for overclocking, but it's usually better to have less LLC and more Voltage.
Tinybox#9112: ---
anyway I misplaced the magical windows usb I need to find it
JustinXenyx#8854: Because it probably isn't an OEM license, more rather a volume license @Tinybox
