Thermaltake PCIe Gen 5 Cable feels like one from aliexpress. Can't beat that feeling, LOOL How is your opinion on Thermaltake's PCIe Gen 5 Cable bro John?

It does make sense.... Intel's new Tick/Tock process: -2 Cores/+2 Core😀 Tick... Tock... Tick... Tock --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Galax will be the only option that offer dual 16-pin power connectors. With monopoly now as EVGA is dead you are able to charge a nice premium for their best card. And Galax usually only offer custom firmware and custom software for the very few. And Galx is a no option most part of the world. What a sad direction for performance enthusiasts. GALAX GeForce RTX 4090 HOF is the first Ada GPU with dual 16-pin power connectors https://videocardz.com/newz/galax-geforce-rtx-4090-hof-is-the-first-ada-gpu-with-dual-16-pin-power-connectors GALAX RTX 4090 HOF is probably not yet ready for launch. The company usually sends bare boards to extreme overclockers for testing, while they prepare new coolers for retail launch. Those are not needed for extreme overclocking with liquid nitrogen.

AMD Is Investigating Reports Of Ryzen 7000 Gaming Performance Anomalies In Windows 11 hothardware.com AMD has issued an advisory regarding reported Windows 11 versus Windows 10 performance deltas in certain games with its newly minted Ryzen 7000 series desktop processors. While the company has not observed any usual performance characteristics so far (and neither have we, for that matter), it is looking claims by those who say they have.

As I said in previous post. Double price vs retail/item price is +1600$. Then there is a question about freebie from EVGA. So it should be 1600-2000$ or near half way to an custom 4090 if you spent the half on a new Cpu (or just buy two 13900K/KF and resell the worst bin for the profits). But whats matter most is whats fits the user's need. AMD goes all in for the environment and energy saving😞 (so no smoke, melting and fire as Nvidia offer)😁 AMD goes the opposite way of nvidia. Referance will be 2x 8-pin or max 375w (included power from the PCIe slot). 20% lower power budget vs Nvidia's top dog means that AMD will leave 2-5% performance on the table. Could be that the performance with the new cards is good enough to reach the top without maxing out possible power budget. We'll see. AMD Radeon RX 7900 graphics card has been pictured, two 8-pin power connectors confirmed https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-radeon-rx-7900-graphics-card-has-been-pictured-two-8-pin-power-connectors-confirmed

More on the topic. I would push for double the price of retail price + freebies he mentioned. Remember Evga is still not out with their new Z790 motherboards. I think Evga will promote good bench results for the release. So I would speed up this with Cens now if gaming is your priority nr #1. Gigabyte did the same for their motherboards. Great bench results to help the sales of their new boards.

Not sure when the KS version pop up. But at that time it will lose lots of value. Also did you get answers what he thought regarding EVGA stuff? Maybe you can sell the freebees you may get as well (+1000$ for the Cpu).

It seems Hwbot will force you to run latest Benchmate version for benchmarks which requires it. Will be fun with old ancient hardware. HWBOT news Update your benching Osses !! It's time to update them benching OSses ladies and gentlemen, from the 29th of October plz only use BenchMate 10.12.2 or newer version. Grab the latest version at the BenchMate website

Remove features to add them back later is also Microsofts way do it. This way you will feel you get something back if you upgrade🙂 Moving on, we have the 15th Gen Arrow Lake-S Desktop CPUs which will bring back the 24 cores that we get on Raptor Lake CPUs today. The Arrow Lake-S top die will utilize up to 24 cores which will be a combination of 8 Performance Cores and 16 Efficiency Cores. In the older days we was stuck with 4 cores in a long time. Now we will be stuck with a flood of Baby-cores. So in short... Intel's new Tick/Tock process: -2 Cores/+2 Core😀 Edit. Who moderate Nvidia's reddit forum? Nvidia themself?

High core counts processors and incresed IPC for baby cores. Remember AMD Ryzen mainstream will most likely be stuck on with 16 cores. Or they are forced to do as Intel to keep being competitive on price. Bigger cores will always be more expensive.

The future is less of P-cores. Will AMD follow Intel and offer less performance cores and offer 75% of the cores as baby cores as well? Don't games need more than 6 real cores in the future or/will small E-cores be better for gaming? The transition to trash cores continue... And why go down to 6 P-cores then add 2 more for the refresh on same socket? A nice way to milk/offer an performance upgrade path? Remove cores, then add them back to offer something new. Almost as Dell did with their gaming laptops @Ashtrix+++ Based on the leaked slides, it looks like Intel's 14th Gen Meteor Lake-S Desktop CPUs will take a step back and reduce the number of P-Cores while retaining the number of E-Cores. The lineup listed in the charts includes five different SKU configurations with the top variants featuring up to 22 cores in a combination of 6 P-Cores and 16 E-Cores. The P-Cores on the Meteor Lake CPUs are based on the brand-new Redwood Cove architecture while the E-Cores will utilize the Crestmont design. Intel Meteor Lake-S CPUs To Feature 6 Performance Cores, Arrow Lake-S With 8 P-Cores On LGA 1851 Socket And more about Nvidia's disaster. Jon Gerow, aka Jonny Guru (Director of Research Development @ Corsair), has posted a write-up about the 12VHPWR connector. SO, YOU’RE GOOD WITH THE 12VHPWR CONNECTOR? Unfortunately, as of this writing (10/29/2022) Nvidia’s included adapter uses solder, some terminal I’ve never seen before (it has two splits instead of one) and I don’t know what else. Which turns an otherwise excellently designed connector into a disaster. IS THAT IT? Probably not. Let’s consider this a living document as we find out more and more about the new 12VHPWR connector and its potential issues.

Yep, but I think nvidia will be plagued with this a long time if not all the buyers get a notice from where they bought the cards/notice in their bloatware package (GeForce Experience) to warn people about the danger using their stupid engineered adaper. Will be fun see what nvidia will say about this topci in coming press releases. Will they try talk it down (fire fighting to reduce the damage on own reputation) and say only a few adapters are affected by the flaws? We'll see 🙂 Buildzoid isn't fully sure the problem Igorslab have found is the only one. But weird this badly designed adapter slipped through Nvidia's quality control/validation. Maybe they test own products in the same way as Microsoft do for their CU patches? Only a few tested, then rush it out to meet deadline. Only 4 today🙂 October 29 Link Here Gigabyte 4090 Gaming OC 4x 8 pins October 29 Link Here Asus TUF 4090 4x 8 pins October 29 Link Here MSI Gaming X Trio 4090 3x 8 pins October 29 Link Here Gigabyte 4090 Gaming OC 4x 8 pins Thanks bro @electrosoft🙂

HeHe. What is a day without new smoke and fire? New one out. But where is Nvidia? Planning, an escape route without looking stupid? Just start the recall!! The longer they wait, the worse it will be. Just don't let the stupid engineers that said the adapter was good enough to be shipped with 4090, examine the burnt cards/adapters😁 40 minutes ago Another 16pin Adapter Melting (around 8hrs total use)

Nvidia's reputation is at stake. And this only a few weeks before AMD launch their new graphics cards. AMD could'nt get a better before Christmas gift than what Nvidia gave them this time. If you have a melted 4090 connector in the US you can report it to the Consumer Product Safety Commission here. saferproducts.gov/ Fellow Canadian RTX 4090 owners, remember if you experience any melting issues with your adapter/connector, please report it to Health Canada health.canada.ca/en/hea... And this is just amusing... Always be prepared if you game on newest Nvidia graphics. Always have your fire extinguishers right beside the "ticking bomb". What can goes wrong here?😁 Btw... Who will have to pay for filling up the fire extinguishers after the fire due unsafe Nvidia products? Nvidia or you? Hehe And some others like to live on the utter edge... Cardboard packaging is as you know flammable😁

Two new in a rove. The smoke and fire show continue with nvidia's new modern power adapter. New has to be better. Always. Also Microsoft think so. Nvidia wanted to cut costs with this new design. 1600$ for the graphics cards isn't enough to make big enough profits. Hence they was forced to cut costs. MSI Gaming X Trio RTX 4090 adapter burned A Friend Messaged Me to check on my 4090's connector Btw. What you think about the airflow direction on the fans below the fried 4090? Why use the bottom fans as exhaust fans? So he could smell the smoke faster?

Remove older 5000 seriec Ryzen chips from that list and there you have the sales numbers for AM5 platform. Edit. Why not just reduce the price for the Cpu and MB and let the people determine themself what memory kit they want to buy?

Why?😃 Because.... 😁 😁 😁

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 OC Shootout: ASUS, COLORFUL, FE, MSI, GAINWARD tweaktown.com The ultimate GeForce RTX 4090 overclocking showdown: ASUS vs COLORFUL vs GAINWARD vs MSI vs Founders Edition... which overclocks the best? Best Overclocker You'd probably think it was the ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 OC Edition that is the best overclocker, but you'd be wrong... the ROG Strix RTX 4090 was topping out at just 2940MHz but your results may vary. The best overclocker that I've got here with my pile of custom GeForce RTX 4090 graphics cards is NVIDIA's own GeForce RTX 4090 Founders Edition which hit 3080MHz (but crashed) but was perfectly stable at 3060MHz. Fun seeing Nvidia eat up their partners🙂 A good beginning before we see next chapter "eat their own" (5x90 FE). Have control on chips and memory chips bin quality/supply chain, pay off. Give it one of the best price tag help as well. Nvidia vs AIB partners = 1-0

Nvidia confirms Windows 11 Task Manager reporting is broken with latest 526.47 driver neowin · 5 hours ago 6 Nvidia has acknowledged the false reading issue that is currently affecting its graphics cards. The company has provided a temporary workaround for the problem with its latest 526.47 display driver.......

Nvidia instructs AIB partners to send RTX 4090 cards affected by power connector issues directly to headquarters notebookcheck.net | Today The fun part.... Nvidia warn about use of 3rd party adapters 🙂 Edit. A new one today. And as usual... And CableMod reps strike while the iron is hot 🙂 Edit. And here is an new. But from MSI. The nightmare for NVIDIA has just began. When will we see the first house burned down? We've got out first MSI 4090 that melted (Suprim X)

Every single KF chip will be used as KF (only binning will be for clock speed). If Intel was really smart they would release an 13900KFS 🙂

He meant his own chips, so I don't count in Intels 11th gen failure (backported to Intel's 14 nm+++++++ process node)🙂

11th gen Mobile is on 10nm. 12th and 13th gen is 10nm+++++++ Edit. And older mobile on 10nm have a lot less cores, so.

You need to compare amount cores, clock speed and what power budget the Cpu have. You can't compare Intel chips tuned to be in Jokebooks. A sidenote.... 12th and 13th gen have same IPC, so... All boils down to castrating the chips so it can be able to be used in thin and flimsy From what I remember he have 12800H aka 10nm chips (12th gen).

The horror has a face – NVIDIA’s hot 12VHPWR adapter for the GeForce RTX 4090 with a built-in breaking point Summary and conclusion The overall build quality of the included adapter for the GeForce RTX 4090, which is distributed by NVIDIA itself, is extremely poor and the internal construction should never have been approved like this. NVIDIA has to take its own supplier to task here, and replacing the adapters in circulation would actually be the least they could do. I will therefore summarize once again what has struck those involved (myself included) so far: The problem is not the 12VHPWR connection as such, nor the repeated plugging or unplugging. Standard compliant power supply cables from brand manufacturers are NOT affected by this so far. The current trigger is NVIDIA’s own adapter to 4x 8-pin in the accessories, whose inferior quality can lead to failures and has already caused damage in single cases. Splitting each of the four 14AWG leads onto each of the 6 pins in the 12VHPWR connector of the adapter by soldering them onto bridges that are much too thin is dangerous because the ends of the leads can break off at the solder joint (e.g., when kinked or bent several times). Bending or kinking the wires directly at the connector of the adapter puts too much pressure on the solder joints and bridges, so that they can break off. The inner bridge between the pins is too thin (resulting cross section) to compensate the current flow on two or three instead of four connected 12V lines. NVIDIA has already been informed in advance and the data and pictures were also provided by be quiet! directly to the R&D department. Some heads has to roll at nvidia's engineering team. Because this adapter is a fire hazard and should have never seen the light. What with the 12VHPWR connector on the GPU PCB? Hot running connector on the adapters side won't make it more reliable in the length. Plastic will wear out faster from the added heat (even if you replace it in time - before the smoke, melting and fire).

Microsoft fixes Windows vulnerable driver blocklist sync issue Disabling the driver blocklist Microsoft also says that starting with the Windows 11 2022 update (version 22H2), the blocklist is enabled by default on all devices.
