TheoKondak got a reaction from kelvinhall05 in DAS Mechanical Keyboard insane chattering
When I have some time, I will disassemble it and try to see how these switches are built. Maybe I will find a way to clean the interior and save the keyboard. Thanks for your tips.

TheoKondak reacted to Juular in CS:GO Lag spikes - Rubberbanding - Teleportation
Unstable power delivery can cause all sorts of strange shit, don't really know if it can cause smth like that, since if it indeed affects the network card so it loses packets it still would appear in software as so. But getting a new PSU would be my first call since you already know that it's faulty. Also, be sure to get smth serious, that GPU will appreciate it. Be sure to check that thread to pick a new one. What PSU do you have currently i'm curious ?

TheoKondak got a reaction from Specer in Ryzen productivity benchmarks?
Well it is not a matter of CPU, it's rather a matter of software. Lightroom and PS wont be able to use all the threads. Other than that 3700x is a beast, and will handle both with no problem.
I did some testing the other day, I had Lightroom recreating my photography catalogue (more than 100 thousand files), while I had open Davinci Resolve and Photoshop (with an HD image and a couple of layers), and at the same time a Chrome browser with more than 50 tabs, CS:GO and Ashes of the Singularity running as well. The system was running smoothly and it was still super responsive.

I think it is not worth it that much to be honest. Outer Worlds seems nice. From some reviews I checked, they say it reminds a bit of the Fallout.

TheoKondak got a reaction from Thready in Ryzen productivity benchmarks?
Hm not sure what to suggest to you my friend. I'd try to go for the new stuff. The new CPUs consume less electricity, heat less, they have better computational power, and they will receive more performance upgrades (we will get one bios update with more than 100 improvements they say during November).

TheoKondak got a reaction from Thready in Ryzen productivity benchmarks?
I recently got the 3700x and I m working on productivity tasks every now and then. Photoshop, Lightroom. Resolve and Handbreak.
CPU: 3700x (Tuned using Ryzen Master: all cores @4.2Ghz 1.243v | Temps on load Max 73 average 60-65 Celsius).
GPU: Gigabyte 5700xt OC
RAM: 32gb 3000mhz cl16.
The 3700x just eats anything i throw at it. I can edit 4k footage from my Mavic Air without even creating optimized media. The CPU doesn't even break as sweat. If you want me to perform any specific test to give you more info let me know.

TheoKondak reacted to LukeSavenije in Motherboard Tier List (EOL)
newer version can be found here:
Credit to: @Jurrunio @GoldenLag
The following list is based on facts, ranked on power delivery and known problems. The list will include modern motherboards for both Intel and AMD chips From Asus, Asrock, Biostar EVGA, Gigabyte, MSI, NZXT and Supermicro (chipsets will be listed). We’ll include the recommended chips we would do with the boards.
For advanced users: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Smj5dh97n32wJqm5dkdDcQt8ID7vH52-lKzaaXUUQx8/edit?usp=sharing
AMD (AM4 Althlon 2xx, Ryzen 3, Ryzen 5, Ryzen 7, Ryzen 9)
All current draw figures are based on Prime95 small FFT with AVX unless otherwise specified, in other words the worst case scenario. Only the top end SKU of CPUs in the same generation and core/thread count configuration is named, others share the same rating. Zen scales down frequency and voltage according to EDC (current limit) and TDC (thermal limit) settings of the motherboard so in theory you won’t cook the VRM of any board at stock, you just lose frequency.

TheoKondak got a reaction from Vejnemojnen in Cheap DDR4 16gb of ram?
Today I've purchased some Crucial Ballistix Sport 3000Mhz CL15. They are in the cheap end, bought 32GB for 160€, but I see that people can easily achieve 3600Mhz CL16 with some OC. So I guess they are some of the best options for your case.
That's what I purchased: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/22vbt6/crucial-ballistix-sport-lt-32-gb-4-x-8-gb-ddr4-3000-memory-bls4k8g4d30besbk

TheoKondak reacted to trevb0t in New Build with Ryzen 3700x in Europe
Frankly unless you're rendering massive scenes or somesuch, the 3700X is hardly a compromise. It's a great piece. It rivals and in many cases beats out the 9900K in production at 60% of the price, and it games really well. I'd just grab one and be happy with that purchase. Until great sales hit, the 3900X is just too damn pricey.
Comparing what Linus was finding with 3600 vs what Steve Burke found with 3200 (obvious 2 different environments, but pretty applicable) there is a distinct difference in performance there. But again, RAM can always overclock.

TheoKondak reacted to trevb0t in New Build with Ryzen 3700x in Europe
That could certainly bump your workload performance a solid amount! In gaming, the results won't change a whole lot.
If you do so, I would go with a decent X570 series board instead of the B450. Like this AORUS model:
https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/nHxbt6/gigabyte-x570-aorus-elite-atx-am4-motherboard-x570-aorus-elite
Also note that in either situation, your CPU is going to want faster RAM than that 3200mhz. If you get into loads that you need to improve, I would do a little research in RAM overclocking. See if you can get it up closer to 3600mhz.

TheoKondak got a reaction from trevb0t in New Build with Ryzen 3700x in Europe
My case has such capabilities so if I am about to save 20€ for something that will not bother me that often, I guess I will just skip it and go for a good non-modular one, and I guess I will do the same for CPU fan for now. That's 50€ savings just from these two parts Maybe if I can save some more, I can push my budget to get the 3900x!

TheoKondak reacted to LienusLateTips in New Build with Ryzen 3700x in Europe
Very loud. Actually, in the modern market is a BAD solution for the price. The Freezer 34 eSports and others people have chosen in this thread would do a lot better while being less loud.
NEVER watch a Linus review, they're usually shit...
The 660p or P1 will do; the 970 Evo has ZERO real world benefit.
The Vega 56 has similar performance to RTX 2060, a bit less than 5700. If you are looking to spend less, you can go for that.
Please, I see you've said you will be buying in September, come back and ask then, prices change daily.
FALSE. The difference is usually less than 1%... you would likely be better off just getting smaller PSU and using the saved money to cover the cost. 550W and 650W is already overkill.
Corsair does not make any power supplies. They share the same factories with almost everyone else in the industry (SeaSonic (rarely), HEC, CWT, Flextronics), may I know what model you currently have?
-
TheoKondak reacted to trevb0t in New Build with Ryzen 3700x in Europe
Watch any review videos for the Hyper 212 Evo. It is literally not worth your money.. watch one where it's pitted against the included Wraith Spire.
I chose the eSports Duo based on performance reviews. It's a solid dual unit for a really good price.
750 is fine if you want it, but if 650 is a savings, dont waste the money. Grab a BitFenix whisper if you want modularity.
The problem is not all PSUs are high quality. Xilence is not, like across the board.
MWE Gold, Corsair RMx or TMx, EVGA G1+, BitFenix Whisper are all solid and modular.

TheoKondak got a reaction from Jon Jon in 570 board with no wifi and usb overclock?
The trick is to let it go for a while I've managed to wait for so long, I will probably manage another month
-
TheoKondak reacted to Jon Jon in 570 board with no wifi and usb overclock?
As @TheoKondak was mentioning, there's a lot of changes specific to supporting PCI-E 4.0. The chipset has over an 11W TDP, so it requires active cooling, which is driving up the price.
Really, for the performance benefit that you will get for PCI-E 4.0, it is worth it. Really, X570 is for the content creators who can make real use of the new Corsair NVME 4.0 drives that can push 5GB/s Read/Write on PCI-E 4.0 and are looking to leverage that Ryzen 9. It really feels like HEDT without requiring a separate platform.
-
TheoKondak got a reaction from Jon Jon in 570 board with no wifi and usb overclock?
Well, X570 mobos are going to be more expensive, due to PCI-e 4, and many more. There are a lot of changes, and extra heatsinks etc that are required, so a premium price should be expected.

TheoKondak reacted to Stefan Payne in 3700x vs 3900x: what to expect on the electricity bills and temps department?
Ähm....
You have an old, inefficient Q6600 and wonder about electricyty bills? RLY?
The old C2D parts are pretty awful when it comes to idle and such. And that's not with the Dual Dous...
So the old 65nm Parts I'd expect to idle around 100W, with an age appropriate GPU up to 150W...
And that's not taking the old, 60-75% PSU into account.
So yeah, your new system might not actually consume more, on the contrary, it might consume half as much under low load conditions...

TheoKondak reacted to aisle9 in Any Chance an Socket 1155 CPU Fan can fit to an AM4 socket?
The Sella has different fin shapes. I'm pretty sure that's an Alpenfohn Brocken, which is a 120mm fan.
Regardless, @TheoKondak, AM3 and AM4 have different amounts of space between mounting brackets. Not by much, but by enough that I've had mixed results on getting AM3 coolers to work on an AM4 board. If you've got the crossbar, there's no harm in giving it a try in a horizontal position and checking your temperatures and mounting pressure to see how strong the hold is. Dropping coolers on your GPU is no bueno.

I think you can still use the single mounting bar (am3 style) if you're motherboard provide it.
