Quite a few gamer boys are the reason we've gotten to where we are today (flooded with trashware and jokeware). But I'm not going to cut everyone across the board. Some is damn awesome. Just look into this forum. But I don't want to change the course because of the damage🙂 Exactly what the modern gamer-boys/girls want... Aiming for the battery life crown.... And Single threaded performance is more important than ever. Intel launches Lunar Lake: claims Arm-beating battery life, world’s fastest mobile CPU cores Dell Unveils Core Ultra 200V “Lunar Lake” Power XPS 13 Laptop, Up To 26 Hours Battery Time Starting at $1399 Thermal Grizzly Presents RGB-infused Intel Mycro Direct-Die RGB PRO V1 Water block Press Release by Yesterday Thermal Grizzly Holding GmbH presents the Intel Mycro Direct-Die RGB PRO V1, an optimized version of the Intel Mycro Direct-Die water cooler. In addition to a new design, the Pro version offers one thing above all: better cooling performance! Various changes to the microfin structure of the base plate, combined with a revised water flow, enable up to 6 degrees Celsius lower processor temperatures under full load.

As I said, this card is boiling slowly to death. Wonder why he don't bother do something about it. What I see is around 65-70C for the different 4090's in this game. Probably depending on what fan speed settings they use. And what ambient temp they have in the "kids" room🤐 As well the 4090 is already above 1 year so with what Igorslab said about cheapo thermal paste, then expect higher temps than what the cards had right out from the shop.

Something has to be quite different in the settings. Because the Suprim X run at around 40-45 FPS and the card is cooking at +80C. And that 4090 card haven't bad cooling @electrosoft from what I know.

If he continue like this... Yes.

What temps do you reach on your 4090 in this game? +80C seems damn hot😎 Try same settings and see how it goes. Fan speed is locked at 70% and 4090 Sunprime X.

That looks like hot as hell😁 Here home... The last summer day today, no sun and warming 13C. Can't beat that summer temp. Maybe I should travel longer North to find the real heat, LOOL This summer have been a disaster. I can't remember it has been so bad. And all 3 summer months have been darn awful. Look at the black line graph and you can see max temps for every day in etc July 2024. Only one day above 20C. I take that Volcano heat in Island any day over this😁 More disgusting, but from Intel..... Power efficient Cpu's for Mobile computing and ARC GPU's for AI is the future. Also AMD don't bother offer maximum peformance. They go for maximum profits instead. https://hothardware.com/news/amds-upcoming-radeon-rx-8000-rdna-4-gpus-may-not-have-a-geforce-rtx-5090

Intel Core 13/14th Gen Instability Update - Future Products Unaffected + Current Gen Product Updates..... now termed “Vmin Shift Instability issue.” Intel/forum ‎08-30-2024 08:35 https://community.intel.com/t5/Processors/Intel-Core-13-14th-Gen-Instability-Update-Future-Products/m-p/1627440/highlight/true#M77071 Intel definitively claims its laptop chips aren't crashing.... Theverge.com Norway and the well known Northern light. From Today... Enjoy the pictures. EKWB's future looks grim tomshardware.com Although the company has not declared bankruptcy, we’re unsure how long it can survive. This latest departure of top talents could mean they already see the company as a lost cause and are jumping ship to save themselves. Critical employees abandon EK Water Blocks amid financial issues EK Water Blocks has lost one of their leading engineers The loss of Joe Robey will hit EK hard. Many of the company’s major product lines were designed by Joe, including many of what we will class as EK’s best products. This includes EK’s recent Direct Die CPU cooling solutions. Beyond that, we know that Joe had designed almost every distribution plate that EK has ever produced. Before this time at EK, Joe Robey was a famed PC modder that created custom distro plates for many of his PC builds, before such purchasable products existed. As it stands, it looks like the end of EK Water Blocks may be in sight. The company may not exist in its current form much longer, which has huge implications for the liquid cooled PC market. This is sad. Because EK is my only option here home in Norway☹️

Yup. You can still have some fun if you only can afford $75 USD on graphics cards. Buy a few cheap games and there you go.

More of the same.... Tech (performance) enthusiast have no value for todays/tomorrows tech industry. The tech enthusiasts being pushed further out into the cold. We are a dying breed bro Fox. All left is for gamer-kids and the average computer Joe. We saw it with DTR's, now we see it for everything related to tech. The screw is tightened tighter and tighter until it bottom out and the fun is all gone. End of the Road: An AnandTech Farewell

See. As I said yesterday. The only shop in Norway that offer watercooling parts is now bankrupt. They will continue with web shop with much longer time to deliver parts (And it will have a much smaller selection). I checked a EK dual pump that was well priced due the bankrupt... Only obe for sale. Checked it out but I needed the reservoir for the pump from EK. Hmmm... The only reservoir for the dual EK pump combo from EK is now EOL. What the heck.... You can still buy the pump but no reservoir? HMMM.What is happening here? See.... EK-XTOP Revo Dual D5 can be paired with EK-RES X3 150 Lite reservoir. I followed the link from the shop above.... END OF LIFE... https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-res-x3-150-lite Then why offer a damn expensive dual pump you can't have with a water reservoir? What are EK doing... See also below. Also their Dual pump is now out of stock. Maybe it will come a new dual pump but with a reservoir (the old reservoir is now EOL as you see). But don't bet your hard earned $$$ on that. Maybe the end is here. EK is dead. And custom water cooling follow the same paths. EKWB: the end of an era? overclocking.com Gamer kids just want an AIO. Or better say want an modern tiny Air cooler that help you boil the Cpu to death (or they just downclock their unlocked Cpu). I can clearly see it here home. You have almost no options if you are an PC performance enthusiast. Zero to none. Back to stupidity. The single core boost is trash. Just a gimick to sell overpriced Cpu's. High number sell. On one a single core. Stop implement useless Mobile tech into desktops with normal cooling. Mobile tech as single core boost and power efficient E-cores should only be used in laptops/tablet and smartphones. Not in desktop PC's.

Remember Windows 11, version 24H2 (OS Build 26100.1591) is targeting Copilot+ PCs Joke's devices. What did you expect? Isn't that build optimized for (Windows on) ARM? Of course the idiots break the OS once again to try make their modern Joke-plates perform better.

Microsoft is locking down it's latest and greatest OS more and more. Soon you won't be able to make/change how Win 11 looks and feel or make it more like like the older slight better Win 10. And more and more (reg) settings and functionality will be removed from the OS. Yup, Win 11 is bad. Very bad. Bad by design. The GUI and settings (apps/in short everything) will go from bad to worse. And if you change how it works to your likings, the Redmod bastards will change it back to how they want it or just make it not to boot once they throw out an new (bugged) Security CU patch. Win 11 is only useful for a few benches but that's all. Nope. I don't want it as my core/main OS.

Here's the test with Windows 11 23H2 (new released Windows update KB5041587 fix for Ryzen gaming performance). Not as good for the Ryzen 9 9950X. I really hope for the Red fanboys that Microsoft don't have to withdraw some of the performance gain later, because Ryzen chips is at risk become more vulnerable to security issues from this new optimization patch. Nothing will last forever🙂 Zen 5 tested with Windows Update KB5041587

Enjoy🙂 And the day have come.... From worse to worse for computer enthusiasts (water cooling) in Norway. Now we have only one real computer shop here home, but for the most part offer AIOs, bling bling and gaming gears for gamer-kids. And a couple of pc web shops where you have to wait for ordered parts 2-4 weeks. The best one is now out of business. This is just sad☹️ The enthusiast shop Digital Impuls is bankrupt

Next Gen.... You mean Nova lake with real mobile desktop processors? Or you mean next gen Intel with the Arrow Refresh? Me see Arrow lake Refresh with either more babies or upgraded NPU. And guess what will do the most for the AI hype? Not more babies in the die. You can't have it all (more babies and upgraded NPU). The best will be the usual 200MHz higher boost clock and upgraded NPU. Not exactly very exiting, is it? But it's what it is and we will finally see real mobile processors for our DIY desktops. The future looks damn bright for enhusiast performance techies. NPU for AI, more power efficient E-Cores and all in an mobile Cpu package for desktops. But......... You can just buy an thin Jokebook. It have everything what an desktop offer. Me.... By then finished with computers. In the rocking chair I go and will enjoy last years of good life before the lid lock over my face...

Very easy to understand bro @Mr. Fox See bolded text. I expect it's due the lack of good enough binned chips (remember they also save up for the X3D chips). And they need only one of the die's that meet expectations and the second one can be everything. A real lottery. But be you sure, the elite/choosen ones get glued together chips with two good ccd's.

What with a change in branding the new mobile graphics cards as etc RTX 5060 Max-Q Light ? NVIDIA's next-gen GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU: RTX 4070 performance, consumes LESS power During that chat, he talked about some details about NVIDIA's next-generation GeForce RTX 50 series "Blackwell" GPUs. The Hasee chairman said that NVIDIA's next-gen GeForce RTX 50 series Laptop GPUs will use GDDR7 memory, and power consumption of the 60-level cards will be "greatly reduced" from 140W to 115W. This means we're going to see a new world of thin-and-light gaming laptops powered by NVIDIA's new GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU Tempting? 🤢🤮🤢 Oh' Hell no! The taste of disgusting. What we will see in ads and promos.... Thinner than ever.

$360 vs $500 USD. And the winner is.... AMD😁 Poor those stupid gamers that pay or paid full MSRP for the new and shiny BulldoZen5. See also...... Timestamp from 1:43

Also Vex see the same as me. Nvidia helping out China with AI servers to avoid the US ban. And they really need all the vram and big boy die's they can get. And Nvidia want all the profit they can get from it. Hence they lock their eyes and let em double up vram for gamer cards as etc 4090(D) and 4080 (Super) - intended with only half ov the vram for GAMERS Screwed. The U:S ban is an Joke and Jensen know it. Nvidia doing Nvidia things and put up the middle up finger to the screwed gamers and the idiots in the U:S Governments. Nice.

The most fun I have seen today. AMD Zen5 chips (RYZEN 9000 SERIES) is now rebranded to BulldoZen5. Yup, this one really made my day😁 Final conclution from Hardware Unboxed. Yup, this did not come as a big surprise bro @Mr. Fox The flopp is real! Greedy, unethical testing and false claims come at a price.... AND AMD PAY FOR IT RIGHT NOW. See the time stamp 20:38 AMD rather prefer sell high cost overpriced re-branded boards instead of offering cheaper options....
