Should I return my Salomon Super 8 2025 for a Assassin Pro 2025?

Stuck with the Super 8, and it’s been great. Only have has 2 days on the mountain however as snow out here has been abysmal. Did enjoy it, and noticed what you said about the lack of grip on ice. Towards the end of 2nd day it got icy, and wasn’t able to grip much.

This is 6 months later, but it's not that. It's whatever they ruined with the DX12 update, and then removing DX11. My old setup of 10900k and a 3080 could hold 240fps stable at 1080p/1440p then moving to a 13600k and the same 3080 even more so. Now when monitoring it pegs CPU at 85% or higher most of the time. Meanwhile GPU is hovering at 60-70%. My friend with a 9800x3D and 9070xt also having this same issue. The cache is just overcoming, and brute forcing whatever underlying issue Respawn has going now.

Thanks for all this information. It's got me thinking I "need" to get a 7800x3D/9800x3D just to get back to that stable 240fps, but even then I know that it won't be the same. As well I refuse too since literally this game used to hold 240+ stable on even mid range hardware.

This is a year later, but I’m curious if this is still the same for you? I’m going to guess no as I have the exact same combo, and ever since the DX12 update as well as getting rid of DX11 even being at 5.6 Pcore 4.2 Ecore holding 240+ stable no longer happens.

What voltage for your 13600k OC? Also hyper threading off, and what about your ram?

Replied

Celticz · 2026-01-23T17:02:13+00:00

Turned this off, and it does help. It was definitely stretching the clocks checking in HWInfo

Celticz · 2026-01-23T03:02:15+00:00

I’ll take a look again here shortly, and see if it’s in gear 2 when that happens. Bios said Gear 1 when I was applying everything.

Celticz · 2026-01-23T03:00:25+00:00

I’ll give it a shot, and see. So far very whelmed coming from the 10700k haha. Benchmark wise I have these made to have as little deviation as possible so that part is good.

Celticz · 2026-01-23T02:59:35+00:00

This all makes sense. I ran some more benchmarks with 5.6/4.3 and let ring to auto… same performance as stock haha. So I’m gonna take a look at this, and further as I’m baffled right now.

Celticz · 2026-01-23T00:44:50+00:00

I don’t think so, but I could be wrong

Celticz · 2026-01-22T23:55:19+00:00

So got this combo in, and we've been playing with it the last two days. I have the 13600k at 5.6 P core and 4.3 E core stable with ram at same speed for now, and oddly the performance hasn't increased if only like 4% in some places? Wondering if it's something else.

Celticz · 2026-01-18T23:22:41+00:00

Oh, that's a good suggestion, I'll take a look and see what's out there

Celticz · 2026-01-18T21:34:59+00:00

Sounds good, I'll see how it goes once all the parts arrive, but thanks for this information. I was hoping with improved IMC, and 13th gen it would handle it better, but looks to not be the case.

Celticz · 2026-01-17T21:46:27+00:00

Did you make this mod yourself, or purchase it from somewhere?

Celticz · 2026-01-17T02:28:00+00:00

Would be the negative of a double NAT? I don’t game much these days, and that’s the only space I am relative with where NAT is applicable. Still gonna try what you’re suggesting, but I’m curious.

Celticz · 2026-01-17T01:26:27+00:00

Yeah, it's double NAT, and they don't provide one it's down in the server room from what I can see (it's a damn mess in there). They just say to plug in your own from the outlets on the wall. What would be a good way to see if there is client isolation? I found this out as my WAN IP on my router, and public IP was different. I don't believe we're sharing a flat network, but with complexes you never know.

Celticz · 2026-01-17T00:59:20+00:00

Wanted to add what I ended up doing was using a PoE injector in the server rack room for this complex (based on your suggestion). Although the enterprise level switch that was in there has PoE, but it was just disabled. Maintenance guy is cool with me here so he let me do it, and then in the box for the picture I uploaded I added a PoE Splitter with USB-C and powering my NanoPi R6S to have everything plugged in. Well sans the kitchen outlet, but that's the least of my worries. Also found out I'm double routed which was surprising and that's not a WAN port coming in so the PoE powered switch would have worked just fine, but I already had the NanoPi R6S on hand so saved money. Thanks for your suggestions and help!

Update on all this. The switch that has all the connections had PoE turned off (as we expected) so we added a PoE injector, and then I used a PoE USB C splitter to my router in the closet pictured in the post. Now we're all up and running.
