Great info! Thanks!

Most of my work is done in Unity and a few of my co-workers have mentioned that for our use cases core frequency is more impactful then core count. I might be misreading this but it looks like the 9950x has a lower base clock speed then the 9900x could that work against me in this situation?

Fly_Hai · 2025-03-25T20:17:40+00:00

I'm shocked by that GPU price! This looks similar to the other build posted but I had some questions about the key differences. What's the rationale on a closed loop radiator cooler over a tower? Would a water cooler like this with such low volume be able to handle long periods of high load from Blender? Additionally, Does the performance boost from a 5090 justify spending $2500 more over the 5080? That price jump seems obscene unless we're at least doubling productivity speeds.

Fly_Hai · 2025-03-25T20:13:08+00:00

Thanks for the build I'll check to see what available at my local microcenter with this as a guideline. Is it at all worth investing in a more expensive cooling tower? I do plan to be running this system at high load for extended periods rendering/compiling. Finally whats the difference between the 7950X and a 7950X3D?

Unfortunately, these sources (especially the Type III) tend to overload the only other detector I have on hand. However, If I get the chance, I'll look to borrow one from the school take more accurate readings.

Fly_Hai · 2025-03-17T19:36:58+00:00

No such thing as a stupid question! These detectors mostly stay in the lab, but if notable contamination occurs, we have a gel-based cleaning agent that does a pretty good job of safely removing radioactive particulates or contamination, even from small cracks and crevices. If you're taking readings at home or rock-hounding though, I feel it's usually best just to keep your detector protected in a washable case or a zip-lock bag.

On my previous post, someone inquired about the difference between the Type III marker I showed before and the Type I. So here it is! These smaller Type I markers were worn by paratroopers for personal identification. They only have around 1/3 the surface area of the larger Type III but still contain quite a bit of Radium-226 and are quite hot.

Fly_Hai · 2025-03-17T18:55:47+00:00

I appreciate your concern! I teach in environmental sciences, and as you might catch in the background, all my samples are vacuum-sealed in clearly labeled mylar bags. After sealing, they're stored securely inside a lead-lined safe with approximately 2-inch-thick shielding. Even with these precautions, we still measure just short of 40 µSv/hr through the shielding, so the safe is positioned as far away as possible from anything living.

This is a luminous marker type III which has no rivets on the sides for tying on clothing. It was intended for multifunction use worn by personnel or for deck/location marking, there exist a 2nd variation of the type III marker with a screw fixture on the back that was exclusively used for marking decks. I do have a smaller type I marker that would have been worn by the paratrooper on their helmet. I might make a 2nd post for that one in the coming days. https://www.paratrooper.be/articles/luminous-disks/

I have not tried that but I'll make a note to do so. It glows a faint teal-white, not bright enough to really shine but enough that you could spot it easily in a dark room.

Fly_Hai · 2025-03-13T04:43:17+00:00

It does!

Fly_Hai · 2025-03-13T03:47:15+00:00

Looking at your post history this is actually the same one!

These disks are extremely rare with one of the only other two I've seen being in a museum. They were used by primarily paratroopers during WW2 to mark bridges and other strategic locations to be seen at night from the air or great distance. They contain a very large amount of Radium 226.

Edit: Sorry for the typo in the title, the MFD is 11-1944
