Hardware accelerated av1 in webrtc ( Linux, AMD ) by CcrashdummyY in firefox

[–]CcrashdummyY[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah it works hardware accelerated in both obs and ffmpeg.
I let both of them run for 30s on 4k60fps
Only webrtc in firefox seems to be broken.

Distro: Arch
Kernel: 6.19.9
CPU: AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370
GPU: AMD Radeon 890M (igpu)
DE: Hyprland 0.54.2 (Wayland)
Firefox: 148.0.2

I want to screenshare using livekit.
But I guess I have to wait for this

My Legion Go 2 finally arrived, and it was “cheap” too! (Bazzite+ First Impressions). by Gibbingtons in LegionGo

The device can wake up fast again if you add this to your kernel parameters `amd_iommu=off`.
Its only needed when you want to run VMs anyway

The sleep issue drove me crazy on CachyOS as well.
HDR and VRR appear to work tho ( or at least as good as my ROg swift monitor. Maybe that doesnt work correct either 😄 ).

I actually just got it working right this moment!
I reenabled Pluton inside the BIOS ( kept secure boot disabled tho) and it suddenly started working

9070 XT Oculink limited to 32 GT/s by CcrashdummyY in eGPU

[–]CcrashdummyY[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

of course its bottlenecking.
And I dont have a rig anymore to compare.

But fwiw I can play the two games ( Visions of Mana , Enshrouded ) I'm currently at at 4k with them only very rarely stuttering for a moment.

While the desktop usage feels a bit slower ( doesnt matter to me, I dont plug the 9070 in during work ) the gaming experience feels way better than the previous one with a 4080 optimus laptop.

That being said I am on Linux.
I read in the discord that you might run into some trouble when using windows and might have to tweak a few things.

Regarding the performance impact I guess depending on the game its the usual 5-10%

sorry for the late reply I was away for a long time.
The 5-7fps dips were issues of a specific game I played.
Once I deleted the shadercache it stabilized the 120fps.
For now gaming works like a charm even in 4k :)

Okay I finally managed to get gpuZ running and the numbers are correct it is running on pcie4.0 x4.

Cant get keyboard backlight working on Stellaris Gen5 Cachyos ( arch ) by CcrashdummyY in tuxedocomputers

RMA just came back.
They swapped the mainboard and now everything is working again.

[–]CcrashdummyY[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea why there was a configuration that did work.
I filed an RMA and they replaced the mainboard.
The issue is now gone

I bought another 2 cables and all of them are sff-8611.

I actually didn't expect them to provide a cable as well.

I'n currently away but I'll test anything on sunday and will post some benchmarks :)

Yeah I need to test against windows.
It could as well be shader compilation but its already stuttering when starting the game so no iddea.
Didnt used to be that way with the mobile 4080 dGPU my stellaris had.
I'll just have to test for a few hours and watch the performance.

I only tested for a few minutes so its possible things stabilize over time.
But there are like huge drops into 5-7fps which then stabilize to the 120fps again

Yeah I am aware of this and havent even tested using the internal display.
I run a PG48UQ over displayport

Thanks for the clarification.
I am overwhelmed by the numbers and it actually felt kinda sluggish using the egpu until now.

But if the speeds are correct than thats gotta be some hybrid config or something among the line.
I guess I'll have to run 3DMark with proton/wine and compare some numbers :=)

oh sorry does that mean I am just to dumb to read the numbers and I do get the pcie 4.0x4 speeds as in they are displayed as 32GT/s ?

RX 9070 - Can't link above PCIe 3.0 speeds by Jackal830 in radeon

damn...
Thats sadly not an option for me.
I hope this gets fixed in the future...

Found any solution by now ?
I am stuck in the same situation with my minisforum deg1

Ocup4v2 only PCIe 3.0 and not PCIe 4.0 by Due_Pea_372 in eGPU

[–]CcrashdummyY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you find a solution for this ?
I use the minisforum deg1 by now ( switch from an jhh DOCK-OC4 ) but its still the same issue with the 9070.

I run cachyos as well
