You probably don't want to hear this, but just RMA both the board and the processor. You shouldn't have to do those things to have a stable system, oc or no. I'm assuming you're not doing anything silly like reusing an ancient power supply

The thing is, the problem is intermittent and I don't know which component exactly to RMA. At this point I'm beginning to suspect the veteran video card, which is out of warranty anyway, because I've been noticing some video tearing in Youtube/Firefox when the card is under load, causing tab crashes. Well drat, there haven't been any blowouts this afternoon while the GTX 970 had been idling. But then again, the system and the video card have been running under full load for months with no problems, the rash of BSODs is a new thing. I need to investigate more. Will start with a can of compressed air and a fresh install of Win10.

The best part is I can get the lock screen to return by RDPing into the machine. But after a few RDP log-ins, the "Interactive Login Service" or whatever fails and every RDP connection instantly disconnects without bringing the lock screen back. :windows10: But this is the AMD thread, so I digress.

I thought the majority of games running 4k on consoles were all running some kind of rendering trucks like checker board. To get the visual quality they do at 1080p in 4k, I doubt any consoles could do legitimate native 4k. The 1070 barely does 30 fps in Ghost Recon Wildlands and less then 30 in Deus Ex, surprisingly gets ~50 fps in BF1.

I have everything configured to perfection. But I finally have to reinstall because my Windows is on a MBR disk and I guess it's time to move to GPT, separate recovery partion and all that. I guess there's no way to migrate old MBR windows installation to the new system? E: apparently creators update has a new MBR2GPT tool to fix this issue. Wow. So I'll just clone my current disk to a new SSD, Upgrade to win10 and see how that works. Ihmemies fucked around with this message at 13:44 on Oct 31, 2017 |

A lot of games also do a TON of dynamic resolution scaling at various parts of the render path. DOOM is a great example of this.

AMD CPU thread might not be 100% the place to talk about this, but the XB1X is a ton more powerful than the PS4P and is somewhere between a 1060 and a 1070 in power. Also textures tend to be lower-res in consoles than the "ultra" texture options in PC, which would help framerates. Consoles are still targeting 30fps in general, and tend to either do dynamic resolution scaling as mentioned, or accept some framerate drops from 30. Native 4K on the XB1X seems feasible with that expectation.

If you don't like wasting time setting up everything after a Windows install, make a disk image just after you set everything up and you can restore from that. Then you update Windows and just update things as you use them later - feels like a lot less of a slog than a fresh install IME

I know that in the real world, Vega is worse per clock than Fiji, which was worse for clock than Polaris.

On hardware, the boneX has 40 GCN CUs @1.2, and thats dang good for a console. With some console "optimization" tom-fuckery, which is often less optimization and more just building the visuals out with some cut corners cause you know nobody is gonna be running this thing 12in from their face at 4k or 144hz, they can squeeze some extra juice out of the fruit. Its the same story as always. Is the console 100% as good as a PC for gaming? No, of course not. But it can get 80% of the way there for 60% of the price. (Of course there are other trade-offs and variables and stuff, but im simplifying here!!!)

I'm so hoping we can get 12+CUs for 45W+ Raven Ridge. Did we ever confirm if the GPU on RR is connected to the CPU by Infinity Fabric? That might make the RAM clock lock make more sense to my lay senses.

Combat Pretzel posted:Hmmm, I find that a little hard to believe. We sure that it doesn't "cheat" by using checkerboard rendering or jokes like that? It's what the devs themselves are saying, albeit reading the quote again it's possible 'support' native 4K will mean it won't run at 60fps in that mode, but that would be a first for any console version of this - PS4/Xbox One/Pro all run at 60fps. I don't think it's outside the bounds of reality given the heft of the OneX's GPU, but that is quite a leap over 1440p.

Clockspeed still obviously matters but those are impressive number nonetheless with the 1920X considering the latency penalties. IIRC, 7nm Zen2 is supposed to be 12C/24T since Rome is supposed to be 48C/96T, so will be interesting to see the 3800X vs the 1920X at similar clockspeeds. Also means much better SKU variation for AMD, since it can't support imbalanced die configs that means Zen2 is 12, 10, 8 and 6 core SKUs while Raven+ picks up the slack at low end with 4 and 2 cores. TR4 gets 24, 20, 16 and 12 core SKUs.

Seeing the 1800X ahead of the 7700K in FPS and 99th percentile is a pleasant surprise. I really hope AMD can squeeze out more ST performance with the next shrink/refresh. Overclocked CFL vs overclocked Zen is roughly a 50% difference in singlethread performance and that more than makes up for missing cores in most applications, even with excellent scaling like that.

EDIT: Content https://twitter.com/CPCHardware/status/925348852147908608 So doubled cores, quadrupled L3, doubled PCIE lanes for Zen2 is what they are predicting/leaking. CanardPC was responsible for some very accurate leaks about Ryzen early on the 5Ghz single core on air notwithstanding (apparently from a CPU-Z dump?). Would mean the base processor for the AM4 platform is a 16C/32T monster and everyone will feel weird about Threadripper until the 32C, 28C, 24C and 20C TRs get released. Can Intel reasonably keep up with core counts at that point? The absorb all the burden on huge die designs, and since not everything shrinks the 56C or so response Intel on 10nm++ would be pricey for everyone involved.

RE the AC:Origins benchmarks, the 4C/8T 7700K being 50% faster than the 4C/4C 7600K is pretty crazy. It's too bad they don't have the 8600K on the list as a point of comparison against the 8700K.
