bus hustler posted:Yeah as long as the person has an eligible card they can redeem. Not sure if a 3070 can redeem, I assume not. I've seen a few people swapping CoD for Watch Dogs. Cool, will shout somewhere about that once I find my code then--if any goons see this and are interested in swapping out their Watch Dogs code for CoD, give me a shout.

I remember reading here that I should buy an evga from Amazon or evga for some reason. I can't remember what the reason was. I am getting mine from Newegg. I don't want to step up but I want to have a warranty. What was the deal with that?

As long as it's an authorized reseller it should be fine. Neweggs just a lovely retailer anymore. Unless there's something I'm unaware of.

Its either that or the 10/29/20 drivers I installed but this is the score I just got.  Its a 1k improvement and puts me about in the right range as everyone else. Edit ok or not? lol I'm still in the bottom 22% haha.

I picked this up and while my main gripe with it is having some horrible microstuttering (people with freesync/gsync displays probably don't notice) and GPU utilization issues, but one aspect I was really stuck with was the absolutely horrible colour banding in this game, it's something I haven't seen in years. I mean it's a very good looking game overall, but I'm surprised it hasn't gotten more critique on this - it's so obvious and really detracts from some scenes.

MarcusSA posted:Edit ok or not? lol I'm still in the bottom 22% haha. Yeah because your CPU score. I don't know your clocks but people with CPU clocks of 4.3-4.4GHz on the 8700K are getting better CPU scores than you. I believe it should turbo higher than that all-core while stock, shouldn't it? The entirety of the CPU test should be at max clocks because it's short, like 30 seconds, PL1 Tau is default what, 100 seconds? So even as stock as stock can be you should be getting higher CPU scores than that. Is turbo disabled on your 8700K or something?

I should have clarified though it looks like I’m in the bottom 22% of GPU only scores when I did the compare thing on their website. Although that could be because a lot of them are OCing their cards and I’m not sure if you can filter that? I feel like the GPU score should be in the 16k range though?

Subjunctive posted:I don't think I've noticed it. Could you capture an example? Stuff like this, but I remembered it being worse so I checked just now, and a factor was def because I was using AMD's Fidelity FX originally, which made the posterization worse (screenshot below is with it disabled). It's relatively minor though, I'm far more salty about the microstuttering and vsync GPU utilization issue that I can't resolve as DX12 doesn't expose the frame buffer end-user control which I could use to overcome this.

TSMC makes AMD CPUs and GPUs on their 7nm process. Samsung is making the Nvidia 3000 series GPUs on their 8nm process, although Nvidia also has Ampere compute products that are made on TSMC 7nm.

Haven't had a chance to play any games to really test stability but I undervolted my 3070FE a bit to 875 mV @ 1800mhz, to see if it would help temps in my ITX build. Numbers are from running Superposition. Benchmark score went down 0.2% FPS basically stayed the same (minimum +1, avg same, maximum -1.5) GPU max temp dropped 4 degrees C Power draw went from 219W to 190W

I had to squint to see it, maybe its more visible in motion but have you tried playing around with your monitors calibration too? I'm on a pretty low brightness atm and it's barely noticeable.

The JEDEC timings along the bottom are just what the individual stick happens to support, not info from multiple sticks. Unless he's running both DDR4-2400 RAM and DDR4-3200 RAM at the same time and the system is defaulting down to 2400 for both sets.
