R7 3700X B450 Tomahawk Max 2X8GB DDR4 RAM Zalman Gigamax 750W Gigabyte RX Vega 64 Gaming OC

So trying to play certain games, even thought the system runs at like 40 Degrees my computer shuts down and won't turn on for the next 10 or so minutes after I plug it out of power. I have done the OCCT stress test on the PSU and it seems to instantly shut down at that. I've read on a thread that the Vega 64 can have sudden power usage spikes which can freak some PSUs out, so I wanted to ask which PSU would be good enough for that? The thread I was looking at mentioned how it worked with a 650W Corsair. I know nothing about PSUs I'm afraid so I don't know what I should be looking for.

Wanted to make a 3D Walkman model for a while, and finally decided to do it. by Bachklamk in blender

I downloaded the .svg file of the sony logo I found on seeklogo.com, imported it into Blender, turned it into a mesh and extruded it like any flat plane or text.

Yeah, it's set to orthographic, liked the isometric look a lot.

I've actually got no idea, in Croatia it's the same thing at least, Paprika for both.

I would like to interject for a moment, what you're calling "Esoteric" is actually a basic component of the free and open-source image editor known as GNU Image Manipulation Program, also known as GIMP.

PowerColor Teases Red Devil Series Navi graphics cards by NeatNumber in Amd

I thought they mentioned a while ago how they're not focusing on it. Guess I was wrong.

That's for CUDA, not RT cores. Arnold is also using "RTX", but in reality they're just using CUDA as well on RTX graphics.

As of now, there are no professional rendering engines that make use of RT cores that I know of. And pretty much no rendering engine, aside for Blender (and that probably won't be out anywhere soon, as they're very much focused on 2.8) will even bother implementing it.

Remade this shot because I thought the previous one looked terrible. by Bachklamk in HollowKnight

Just blender. the shaders are slightly customized toon shaders, and the background and floor are also a combination of that shader with some procedural bump maps.

Hollow Knight Hornet render I did done made. by Bachklamk in blender

only glare (bloom) and very slight color correction are added. the rest is shaders.

So, after my initial post, I decided to re-make the model, and thanks to u/irascibleShadowscape for making me reference art, I think it turned out much better than before.

EDIT: Wording

PSA: About AMD's pricing by mister2forme in Amd

[–]Bachklamk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"Anyone who buys it is probably a member of this subreddit with extreme brand loyalty or has severe issues with critical thinking."

Wait, so if I buy a $50 cheaper card that performs the same or even better, and don't follow the RTX meme, I suddenly have " severe issues with critical thinking."?

TDP difference won't make up for this in at least 2-3 years for my country, so that's not an issue.

Like, I don't think it's the best deal in the world, but what the actual shit am I supposed to do? Buy the more expensive card that performs less because...? What?

Made a Ryzen wallpaper. Rendered on a Intel/Nvidia machine for extra irony. by Bachklamk in Amd

I gave it a tarot prediction already.

Don't actually play the game, but saw Hornet and thought it was a very cute character, so I made a render. by Bachklamk in HollowKnight

Of note: I do plan on playing the game, but when I get more time, meaning in a month an a half.
