[3390.72 --> 3400.78] It might have worked for the most part, but it didn't work well enough or reliably enough for Intel to allow this compatibility to make it to the market. |
[3401.22 --> 3404.02] So, they software and BIOS locked off the compatibility. |
[3404.94 --> 3407.72] Most of this was due to Coffee Lake's different power setup. |
[3407.72 --> 3421.04] It was not necessarily that the board didn't have enough power delivery, but the board's power delivery is distributed over more pins to better support Coffee Lake's six core chips like the 8700K. |
[3421.88 --> 3429.62] So, WCCF Tech reported that ground pins went from 377 to 391 and power pins went from 128 to 146. |
[3429.78 --> 3437.08] Something a lot of people don't know is that on particularly a brand new CPU, like I found a really good... |
[3437.08 --> 3439.08] I forget why I was looking at this, but... |
[3439.08 --> 3443.16] I7-920 pin map? |
[3446.10 --> 3446.58] Cool. |
[3447.62 --> 3449.84] This blog, ReEngine blog? |
[3449.96 --> 3450.40] Check this out. |
[3451.18 --> 3457.20] I forget why I was looking at this, but this is a map posted on reengine.org, |
[3457.20 --> 3465.94] where this guy or gal mapped out what all of the different pins are and then color-coded them. |
[3466.36 --> 3469.80] So, you can see here, all this green stuff is memory controller. |
[3469.80 --> 3474.80] All this blue stuff is QPI data. |
[3474.80 --> 3476.80] All the gray stuff. |
[3476.80 --> 3484.80] So, like 70-80% of what's in here, a bunch of this in here, here, probably a good 50% of what's in here. |
[3484.80 --> 3486.80] All that gray stuff is reserved pins. |
[3486.80 --> 3492.34] And those reserved pins might be for different SKUs that have more hardware in them. |
[3492.34 --> 3499.34] For example, this is a Bloomfield, and so it was architecturally very similar to the contemporary Xeons. |
[3499.34 --> 3504.34] So, those Xeons would have had an additional QPI link that would have taken up probably... |
[3504.34 --> 3505.34] Let's go back here. |
[3505.34 --> 3507.34] Probably all the gray ones here. |
[3507.34 --> 3508.34] Yeah. |
[3508.34 --> 3511.34] That would have been the other QPI link for the other CPU that would have been needed. |
[3511.34 --> 3513.34] But there's still all this other stuff. |
[3513.34 --> 3524.34] And a lot of the time, those reserved pins are just in case Intel decides to do like a new CPU with, oh, I don't know, maybe more cores, for example. |
[3524.34 --> 3526.34] They can use those for something. |
[3526.34 --> 3534.34] So, this is just an example of them utilizing reserved pins in order to add more power. |
[3534.34 --> 3541.34] So, going back to our notes here, the modders say that the pinout doesn't matter because they're just left disconnected, |
[3541.34 --> 3546.34] because those pins are reserved on KB Lake except for two, which you can just cover with tape. |
[3546.34 --> 3550.34] So, the extra pins offer about 8% greater impedance. |
[3550.34 --> 3560.34] So, theoretically, lower power chips like the i3-8100 are fine, but you may have issues with overclockable, higher core count, or higher TDB chips. |
[3560.34 --> 3563.34] There's a screenshot here of an 8700K working. |
[3563.34 --> 3567.34] So, you can check this out on a presumably MSI board. |
[3567.34 --> 3574.34] But, no actual evidence of it running correctly or stably. |
[3574.34 --> 3578.34] So, there you go. |
[3578.34 --> 3581.34] It's exactly what... |
[3581.34 --> 3585.34] I don't know if Intel ever publicly said that was it, but that's what we understood. |
[3585.34 --> 3588.34] It's exactly what we knew it was. |
[3588.34 --> 3591.34] It's not that it can't work. |
[3591.34 --> 3594.34] It's that it can't work well enough. |
[3594.34 --> 3595.34] So... |
[3595.34 --> 3599.34] Unless you try super, super hard and use an i3-8100. |
[3599.34 --> 3602.34] It's probably not worth the work. |
[3603.34 --> 3605.34] So, that's where we're at on that. |
[3605.34 --> 3606.34] Yeah. |
[3609.34 --> 3610.34] What else we got here? |
[3610.34 --> 3612.34] Alright, you want to talk about the Fortnite thing? |
[3612.34 --> 3614.34] There's not a lot to say here, but I think it's kind of interesting. |
[3614.34 --> 3617.34] PUBG has been rocking for a long time. |
[3617.34 --> 3624.34] And a lot of people in the community, including myself, are pretty unsatisfied with how they've been kind of doing a lot of stuff. |
[3624.34 --> 3626.34] Tell for the uninitiated why. |
[3626.34 --> 3628.34] Their servers are super garbage. |
[3628.34 --> 3636.34] Their down times that they choose for maintenance, even when they schedule it ahead of time, is in like prime time for North America, which is pretty rough. |
[3636.34 --> 3637.34] And they do all the servers. |
[3637.34 --> 3647.34] There's a huge amount of hacking and that's not being dealt with to a satisfactory level, including hacks like something called ESP, which is like... |
[3647.34 --> 3650.34] Do you remember the Pokemon Go cheating stuff? |
[3650.34 --> 3653.34] Where people would get like a website and it would show where all the Pokemon are? |
[3653.34 --> 3656.34] You can get that except for PUBG. |
[3656.34 --> 3661.34] So, it shows you where everyone on the map is and you can get it running on an external computer. |
[3661.34 --> 3663.34] So, you don't even need to have it on your computer. |
[3663.34 --> 3665.34] So, there's no way to detect it. |
[3665.34 --> 3669.34] Because you can just VPN the other device, they'd have no idea it's going to your network. |
[3669.34 --> 3670.34] Right. |
[3670.34 --> 3676.34] So, even if they did find a way to track it somehow, which I don't think they could, then you can just VPN and there's no way for them to check it anyways. |
[3676.34 --> 3677.34] Because they've just been on a different computer. |
[3677.34 --> 3678.34] So, basically it has like fundamental flaws. |
[3678.34 --> 3679.34] It's a huge... |
[3679.34 --> 3680.34] There's a lot of issues. |
[3680.34 --> 3683.34] There's things that piss a lot of people off. |
[3683.34 --> 3686.34] And, yeah. |
[3686.34 --> 3697.34] They took all this money that they got for having a successful game and instead of when what a lot of people think needed to happen is throwing all of that towards development of the main game, they developed like a mobile game. |
[3697.34 --> 3707.34] And then they did this huge push to get it onto Xbox and like all this kind of stuff instead of developing the core thing. |
[3707.34 --> 3714.34] They had version 1.0 released, which was as far as I can tell a giant publicity stunt because it was garbage. |
[3714.34 --> 3716.34] There was still huge amounts of issues in the game. |
[3716.34 --> 3719.34] Like it's been really frustrating. |
[3719.34 --> 3722.34] You drop in, you have to parachute in. |
[3722.34 --> 3723.34] I know you haven't really played. |
[3723.34 --> 3724.34] I don't know how much you know about it. |
[3724.34 --> 3725.34] You have to parachute in. |
[3725.34 --> 3730.34] And sometimes you have to stand there for a little while and wait for things to actually spawn, like loot. |
[3730.34 --> 3731.34] Sometimes it's there. |
[3731.34 --> 3732.34] Who knows? |
[3732.34 --> 3733.34] It might not work. |
[3733.34 --> 3734.34] You try to parachute into the ground. |
[3734.34 --> 3736.34] It might not let you out of the parachute. |
[3736.34 --> 3740.34] Then when it does, it might just kill you or do a whole bunch of damage because it's like, oh, you fell. |
[3740.34 --> 3744.34] It's like, wouldn't have fallen if the game worked. |
[3744.34 --> 3745.34] Thanks. |
[3745.34 --> 3746.34] There's huge rubber banding issues. |
[3746.34 --> 3748.34] For a huge amount of time, there's massive performance issues. |
[3748.34 --> 3751.34] There's still some performance issues, but not as much as there was before. |
[3751.34 --> 3754.34] Tell me how you really feel about it. |
[3754.34 --> 3768.34] Meanwhile, and I'm not as into the gameplay because I don't like the building aspects and stuff, but Fortnite released their Battle Royale mode after PUBG running on the same engine because they made it. |
[3768.34 --> 3774.34] And it's what a lot of people would classify a better overall experience. |
[3774.34 --> 3777.34] I'm not as into the gameplay because I don't like the building aspects. |
[3777.34 --> 3780.34] You have to like actively build walls and do all this weird stuff. |
[3780.34 --> 3788.34] And some of the fights are just ridiculous to watch because you just watch people like rapidly build walls and stairs and stuff like super, super, super, super, super, super fast. |
[3788.34 --> 3789.34] And then like, one shot. |
