NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 spotted reaching 3.0 GHz and 616 Watts with GPU stress tool - VideoCardz.com by kagan07 in nvidia

[–]joeymp 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Look at the screenshots and read the article again.

“The 3.0 GHz clock was performed with the default test called “msi-01” and 616W was recorded workload called “Furmark-donut”. The latter is much more power hungry.”

Different instructions use different amounts of power per cycle. Similar to AVX instructions on CPUs, which usually require a downclock to remain stable, there are certain power hungry instructions you can perform on GPUs. The Fuzzy Donut program runs these specific instructions which increases the power draw so vastly that the clock speed must be lowered to remain stable, yet you are still drawing way more power than a normal benchmark running at 3.0GHz.

I am most looking forward to playing Racer RTX because I love ray tracing and want to see the future of games.

AMD and Qualcomm Collaborate to Optimize FastConnect Connectivity Solutions for AMD Ryzen Processors by _hiddenscout in stocks

[–]joeymp 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Qualcomm makes wifi chips for laptops called the FastConnect 6900. All this report is saying is that laptops that have the FastConnect 6900 wifi chip and a AMD Ryzen 6000 CPU will be more efficient than laptops that pair the FastConnect 6900 wifi chip with another CPU (Intel). While this is a nice small benefit for people choosing to buy an AMD laptop over an Intel laptop, this is not market moving news.

also have you updated your bios? The newer bios for the asus z390 boards lowers your quality %. Presumably because the original bios is from August and they have seen higher binned cpus since then so they had to adjust their data.

So even with the higher power limit the oc scanner did not take advantage of the extra headroom and is still topping out around 2025mhz, however the power monitor is showing higher power usage at the same frequencies. Now hopefully, this bios update will allow even higher clocks through manual OC but right now all it seemed to do was consume more power at the same frequencies as the old bios.

oh wow, I didnt know there was a bios update. I’ll update and report back.

So I played around with evga precision x1 a bit and it turns out the xc only has a max power limit of 112%, unlike the xc ultra which I have seen to have 130%. I also tried the new oc scanner and it increased my stock boost from 1905mhz to between 2010 - 2025mhz. I havent had a chance to do proper OCing but I’m certain you can push it more than this. Interestingly I got a higher OC on the oc scanner when the voltage slider was at 0 vs 100.

Will do. Ya, all the reviews seem to be for the ultra version.

That’s weird, I chose the free (slowest) shipping, so that can’t be the discrepancy.

Same exact thing happened to me. Ordered a EVGA 2080 XC as soon as it was available on newegg after the announcement and it shipped yesterday.

Why does my Xs take no HDR photos at all? by SonnigerTag in apple

[–]joeymp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same thing is happening to me on my Xs Max. It doesnt matter if I have Smart HDR or Keep Normal Photo on or off, it will always save one picture to my camera roll (which doesnt have the HDR tag on it).

Majority of Americans support Mueller’s probe of Russia, Trump campaign by dont_tread_on_dc in politics

Thats one specific month. If you actually look at the month-to-month polling the gallup does you will see that it averages to about an even number of democrats and republicans.

[–]joeymp -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The poll is skewed.

Democrat 32% Republican 25%

This is not a good representation of the country according to national surveys which say the breakdown of party affiliation in the US is roughly 30% democrat, 30% republican, and 40% independent.

REDDIT AD FOR RACIST SITE URGES WHITES TO 'CONTINUE THEIR LINEAGE' by radical_vegan in Fuckthealtright

how is this any different than if there was an ad for blackpeoplemeet.com? Is it really racist to only be attracted to someone of your own race?

Pred 6-piece build recommendations? by motorcitymuscle in thedivision

[–]joeymp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As far as I know base stam has always been 535 for pvp and pve. I’ve never seen someone claim the base stam was 740.

[–]joeymp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope its 4. Try it yourself. Your character has a base stam of 535 not 740.

[–]joeymp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Remember if you want the 9k stam in last stand/skirmish then all 6pc’s must be rolled to stam and you need atleast 4 stam mods since the classified gear is normalized down to 1272.

Is there a cap for stats on PVP modes (Skirmish/last stand)? by deepfriedcooky in thedivision

[–]joeymp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes it does but as long as you have all 6pc’s rolled to stam and atleast 4 stam mods then your stam will be over 9k in last stand/skirmish.
