I'm not so sure its criminal to run 850w PSUs with 5090s.......Ive used a few 850w PSUs with higher end GPU'S.
Seasonic Vertex GX 850
7800x3d + 4090 (Asus strix OC) couldn't get above 750w draw and that was simply hammering furmark and cpu burner (in furmark)
Was closer to 650w when just...
Since everyone loves E-Cores I figured I'l play around with Process Lasso and only assign E-cores to R26.
Running them at 5.0ghz
Not a terrible result. 16 E-Cores fully loaded was about 160w cpu power consumption
First day hating on intel? Not the first time they release a mobile platform before a desktop platform. Not sure why that's such a big deal. Surely you remember the intel core platform that was mobile first and gave the pentium 4s run for the money before the desktop platform was released...
Haven't really made any progress, tested some other drives with similar (but slightly better results)
And now on to the even more baffling problem.
I used the 4TB SN850x, made a small c: partition for the windows install, and a separate partition for the data.
When I test on the data...
Are you aware how well the Arc B390 performs?
Are you aware how well the panther lake cpu's scale at lower clock speeds vs anything AMD has to offer?
Sounds like grasping at straws.
Using canadian pricing as an example, I don't see an imaginary CPU causing any issues for intel.
265KF is $399
9700x is $460
7800X3D is $550
14900K is $620
9800X3D is $640
9850X3D is $720
285K is $780
Intel is the value leader right now. Given the price of ram. A full $240 difference between...
This problem has me stumped.
Picked up an Aspire 14 From Costco.
226V
16GB LPDDR5 8533
1TB WD SN5000S QLC SSD
Here is the "stock" performance with the WD drive
Since there has been some confusion as to whether Lunar Lake supports Gen 5 SSD's (running them at Gen 5)
I decided to put in...
Locally where I am. Some SKUs of 5070Ti's have gone up about $250 (cad$) while others have stayed the same. My MSI Ventus 3X OC 5070Ti has not gone up (none of the MSI cards have) but Asus and Gigabyte have gone up
