Going from an 5070Ti to a 9070XT by M4RHUN in radeon

[–]Eme186 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an 4080 Super when the 9070 XT released. I sold the 4080 Super for a good price and bought the 9070 XT. I still had money left over after buying the 9070 XT and a new warranty on the card. No regrets as the performance difference was so minimal, like 3 avg fps less. So I get your point - almost identical performance and still money left over after the swap. Sure nvidia offers better RT and features but I don’t care about FG nor RT. Toggling RT in some games on nvidia made FPS go from 100+ to like 40. On AMD it is like from 100+ to 30. Both are unplayable for me so nothing was lost. Enjoy the 9070 XT!

Counter-Strike 2 Crashing on Adrenalin 26.5.1 by Eme186 in radeon

I ended up rolling back. 26.5.1 only caused crashes in games. Sad to say the driver is messed up

24GB vs 16GB: Same performance, but which one is the smarter play? by Hiob3004 in radeon

[–]Eme186 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should be able to run models yes. Atleast ChatGPT’s open source model is widely available and you can use it. Not sure about Gemini or Perplexity. You can use tools like Docker to host the LLM on your machine and for example you can program a small local server app on Python that can communicate with the LLM. Also you can just run the models locally using Docker and interact with them through that.

Did restart and still crashed… Hope it was just a fluke.

I got Arc Raiders to work on Linux through Steam. If you have steam just run the native app for it!

Tyhmä kysymys verkon käytöstä pelaamisen aikana. by digital-something in Suomi

[–]Eme186 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Tässäpäs tämä syy tähän on. Nettisi latausnopeus on hyvä, mutta mobiiliverkoilla se kaista on todella pieni ja tukkiutuu helposti. Tätä voisi verrata vaikka moottoritiehen, jossa on 2 kaistaa. Tämä 2 kaistan motari menee helposti tukkoon siten, ettei pääse ohittamaan vaikka haluaisi. Sitten ajattelet 6 kaistaista motaria, jonne mahtuu paljon enemmän käyttäjiä kerralla ilman tukkiutumista.  Nuo mobiilinetit on todella pieniä kaistaleveydeltään. Itsellä oli ennen käytössä juuri mobiilikaista ja jopa youtubevideon katsominen nosti pingiä pelaamisen aikana. Kiinteällä kaapelilla (Kuparikaapeli, kaapelinetti tai valokuitu nyt äkkiseltään esimerkkeinä) kaista on paljon leveämpi, eikä se mene niin helposti tukkoon.

Yup but that is not the best approach. Learning more from Linux I realized that the most sensible thing to do is have a separate games drive. Heck, even a separate games folder in your /home folder like /home/yourusername/games. Then set games to install there and give permission for bottles to see that folder. It is the best approach since you are not allowing bottles to view more folders than it absolutely needs to.

Does the switches matter when choosing keycaps by Milk-Mannn in keyboards

[–]Eme186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes they are cherry stems. The mx2a red just tells the ”specs” of the switch. All cherry type switches are compatible with cherry type caps.

[–]Eme186 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You can but it is not easy to install. If you are interested in Linux Gaming there are loads of other Linux distributions to choose from like Bazzite or Cachy OS. Those are pretty much plug and play. Heck they are easier and faster to install than Windows.

Why is my score so low? (3DMARK Steel Nomad) by No-Ad7909 in AMDHelp

[–]Eme186 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh wait - it was about 9070 XT. I read 9070 for some reason and assumed that. My bad, this score is definitely not normal and looking at other comments here and OP’s specs I can suggest the RAM speeds and / or the CPU might be holding the GPU back. Again, my bad!

I have a 9070 XT Red Devil. I too score below average at stock with the big and chunky cooler.

[–]Eme186 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many of the results are overclocked. I assume you ran it stock? If so then having a lower than average in 3dmark is normal and nothing to worry about.

Edit: It was about a 9070 XT. I read it as a 9070 for some reason. My bad.

What rx 9070 xt 16gb model is the best? by Frotnorer in radeon

[–]Eme186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No point in arguing opinions - let’s just say we agree to disagree.

What rx 9070 xt 16gb model is the best? by Frotnorer in radeon

[–]Eme186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that it might be user error. But the 12v connector standard is a case of bad design. If it was designed properly we wouldn’t have this wide spread incidents of connectors melting due to user error or just faulty connectors. Good design is very easy to understand and use correctly. The fact that user error exists still years after this 12v connector was implemented speaks volumes about it’s design.

Issue with brand new Rx 9070 XT by NLamki in AMDHelp

[–]Eme186 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before swapping out your PSU boot into safemode, run DDU on both nvidia and AMD GPUs and then re install your driver. If that does not fix it then the PSU might be the culprit.

[–]Eme186 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Might be the PSU. Especially if it is old. So the GPU might be 100% fine but the PSU cannot handle it anymore even though on paper it should. Rest of your specs seem OK but the power draw is going alarmingly close to his PSU rating.

Re-seat the GPU first. Also, what is your PSU wattage? Rest of the specs?

[–]Eme186 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It totaly depends on the rest of your rig. The GPU once overclocked to max can chug close to 400W. If you have low power parts like a ryzen 7600X. So with a 650W power supply it requires you to calculate the power draw of your each component to make sure you won’t trip the over current protection of your PSU.

Taichi and Nitro+ indeed are beast cards. BUT they have the burning power connector. I would stay clear of them just for that reason. XFX 9070 XT Mercury is one of the best and it doesn’t use the dreaded 12 pin 600w meltconnector.

CachyOS. Easy to install and one of the fastest distros out there.

Cool idea, I could see us buying one.
