  1. Sorry for the late reply, and thanks! While I can appreciate calling someone retarded on the spot, its not a big stretch to imagine that such a specific PC is required by an institute where funding is not as simple as "take this 2 grand and go haggle with some guys".
  2. Thanks for the recommendations, but I'd like at least a SD 778G/780 SoC, that's why the A52s as the lower bar / fallback option.
  3. What I am looking for is a premium-ish phone (around 500-800 EUR) and the only important thing is battery life. I don't have any other very specific requirement, I expect the other features (camera, screen, build, performance, no quality control issues, etc.) to be good enough at this price point. Notably I am not playing any games or cutting videos or anything demanding. I just watch YT, browse the web, listen to music, take photos (I'm not too picky), navigate with Maps (on foot) a LOT, while on the go, often having very loong days. Anything I start looking at fails exactly in the battery department: S22, S21 FE, Pixel 6, Motorola Edge 30 Pro/Fusion, Xiaomi 11T (Pro), OnePus 9 (Pro). It is frustrating that the best match is a more than one year old Galaxy A52s for below 300 EUR. I want to spend more to get better quality and some premium features.
  4. Budget: max 2500 EUR/USD Country: Germany Usage: ML inference calculations only Other details: So I need to spec out a PC that will only be used for Machine Learning inference calculations. The requirements are simple: an RTX 3090 (Ti if budget will allow it) is fixed, but otherwise we only need some 6core recent-ish CPU and barely any RAM. These are two builds that I clicked together using my passive knowledge from being a long-time LTT-viewer: - https://de.pcpartpicker.com/user/alparius/saved/#view=2xr8Q7 - https://de.pcpartpicker.com/user/alparius/saved/#view=jbvGJx So I think the GPU, CPU, RAM, SSD should be fine. I would like to ask your opinion about the rest: motherboard, CPU cooler, PSU and case. Are these good choices, are they compatible? Where could I spend less and should I spend more anywhere (except lttstore.com gotcha)?
  5. Haven't played anything yet. It is not warm at all during Cinebench though. Ok, so UB is crap, got it. Downloaded R20 as well, got 1200, which I think is in the same ballpark as the 3400 in R23. The system reports that the CPU is running around 100 Celsius, but only sipping 10-15 Watts and running around 1 GHz. It is loud, but not warm at all. Also: https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/10446165, the GPU score is excellent though.
  6. Hello! Just got a Legion 5 Pro (5800H, 32GB, 3070). It was open box, so I went straight to benchmarking it (although I am not too experienced at it). - userbenchmark.com reports that there are major problems with the CPU. 9th percentile... (and with the RAM as well, but this might just be due to this year's typical bad latency RAMs) - on that lead, installed Cinebench R23 (from the Windows store). 890 single core and ~3400 multi core (in multiple runs). This is straight up 4x slower than anything I see online for this notebook/CPU. What could be the issue that butcher my performance so much? I have a fresh W10 installation, fully updated, no background apps, fans and battery in performance mode, plugged into wall, hybrid mode disabled, etc.
  7. I'm definitely doing this one, because I realized in the meanwhile that we could get a cable to any room through the unused chimney holes.
  8. Hello! So my parents live in a two-storey brick house and the ISP-provided router/WiFi combo modem is downstairs, where it covers all the rooms and even parts of the garden, so its fine there. However, some of the rooms upstairs have a very weak signal. Up until now it wasn't a problem, but with school being online, now my sister needs solid signal in her room as well. I'm not into networking but I do have some basic knowledge and I know about several possible solutions. - a better router instead of the current one - a good WiFi box next to the current router - a range extender somewhere halfway between the router and the room - installing a separate router / access point into her room Which of these sounds the cheapest, easiest and most solid solution? Thank you in advance!
