Set this up for rendering. The cards fitting side by side just looks so rad, and this x299 workstation board is one of the few that can fit so many 2 slots for a reasonable price. Unfortunately, even with power reduced to 70% across the whole set of cards, the top card was just too starved for air, hit 80plus degrees while the bottom was around 50. That may not seem like much, but this machine is for sustained rendering, and 3 cards that can run cooler at 100% is better than 4 hot cards and 70%.

>Buckley examines the "huge success" of Palworld 1.0. "Thank you, gamers," he says. "As cliche as it might sound, we didn't expect it to go that well. Genuinely. 900,000 CCU, insane amount of sales yet again. We're really, really happy. Again, very life changing for the studio."

I impulse bought this right before the manufacturer's rebate ended and promptly found out my wife is pregnant, thankfully Costco has a great return policy

EDIT: The baby is planned, just thought it would take longer to get pregnant. It's also just about priorities. We could still afford the baby and keep the computer but the money will be better spent on baby necessities and I can just use my 3080 rig a bit longer

I did some testing in Goat Simulator using a mouse because people in this group have told me that GFN is pure magic. I'm using Wifi 7 in both ends and a $300 router. I get that some single player games might work, but come on. This is unplayable for anything that uses a mouse or fast reactions. I'm 800 miles from the server. It passes all the check points according to Nvidia.

I'm ready to get downvoted in a PERSONAL computer subreddit.

Edit: this is 25 ms. Apparently recommended Ms is 40 according to Nvidia.

So basically they are comparing native fps vs dlss 5 + frame gen set to 6x, and showing like dlss 5 increases your fps, not lowers it. Very very lame way to lie

Doesn't feel 8 years old at all

Second and third pick for the result.
I tried to bend it back but it’s very hard and it could snap.
This is unacceptable for a 1200€ card

ngl this is like download more ram at physical hardware level instead of software. Anyone willing to try? it cost like 250 dollar… wtf

The load seems pretty heavy for older gen hardware, but still impressive due to some compatibility.

Even for RTX 3000 series gpus, the performance overhead is high, but what's impressive is that Nvidia did not go out of their way to block it officially because there are mods to unlock it (optiscaler I reckon).

Still, Nvidia could block it IF they want. But given the performance overhead, I think this new tech is not worth it for 3000 and older series users even though there is a good bit of photo realistic look (which Nvidia is claiming). I understand photorealism less. Here owning an Rx 590, honestly, I'd STOP at dlss 4.5 if I can ever own an Nvidia GPU in the future. Why I said, "ever own"? Then oh boy, you have gotta check out my previous two posts in this sub.

Planning on going Radeon next (given the current prices), but not sure when I can afford to. I REALLY HOPE Radeon's FSR 4.5 (no talk about it on the internet; I'm conjecturing) is at least indiscernibly near DLSS 4.5 so that there is 1. Great competition between the two and 2. that there is no regret buying Radeon for me in the future XD. Personally, I'm not sold on the photorealism of this bleeding edge tech. Maybe it's great! And you can opine that way, and I'd gladly read about it, but ME AM personally not liking it (so far) based on what I have seen.

But hey, we all want tech to progress to make our experience better. So, hoping for the best.

For like two weeks my PC would randomly black screen and reboot maybe once every day or two. Temps were fine, stress tests were fine, RAM passed everything and event viewer wasnt telling me much.

Was looking to upgrade my PSU because that seemed like the next obvious suspect.

Then yesterday it happened literally as I leaned back in my chair. Turned the PC back on, leaned back pretty hard again and it instantly rebooted.

Turns out one of the wheels of my chair sits right beside the leg of my desk. When I leaned back it would slightly push the desk sideways. My front USB C header wasnt seated properly and that tiny movement was enough to make the cable move and occasionally cause the whole PC to freak out.

Unplugged the header completely last night and I havent been able to make it crash since.

I spent two weeks testing RAM and GPU drivers because my chair was basically rebooting my computer.
