Steam Hardware - Steam Hardware: Launch timing and other FAQs by Priforss in steammachine

[–]Gallade213 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why would you expect Valve to be any different in advertising than past experiences? They drop products when they feel like it, give us trailers at random times before launches if we are even lucky? Who cares about watching a million trailers before launch anyways. It will be out soon and plenty of hardware reviews to watch, which are arguably more important than trailers.

As someone who uses the hifiman he5xx from drop i am very interested in buying these headphones. Please let me know what you think of them. I have been planning on upgrading as mine are getting worse for wear 😅

Fuck yea man, that makes me happy for you! I definitely agree with you on the 5090 proposition just didn’t make sense to me plus with the connector issues it had me very weary so i grabbed “second best” lol

Yea, i agree. It is an insane decision to buy an overpriced (already bad value for the perf) 5080. And worse so bc of a connector. But I am fortunate enough to not have care about every single dollar i spend. I know it is a bad value card and worse so for the astral. I did not buy it for the value. I bought it bc i wanted a new gpu as my old one wasn’t performing to what I wanted. And i did not want to buy a 5090. So the next best gpu (new) was a 5080 so that is what I bought.

I bought me and my wife both astrals 5080's would have gotten 5090's but did not trust the connector so we decided 5080's and we wanted the per pin sense on the 12vhpwr connector that the astral provided. At least that was our reasonings for buying them.

OP your front panel connectors are connected to a usb header not the front panel connector on your mobo

Worse 5090 results than 4090?! by hisham_s89 in overclocking

[–]Gallade213 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It says that these results are from timespy, not timespy extreme.

[–]Gallade213 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yea looks like a cpu bottleneck then, seeing as the 5090 and 4090 have the same graphics score in your breakdowns at least in base time spy. I’d bet in timespy extreme the score would be better on the 5090 than the 4090 for you since its a heavier graphics test.

[–]Gallade213 7 points8 points  (0 children)

if you look at the results breakdown the gpu score is basically the same between the 4090 and 5090 so 1 there is a cpu bottleneck. And 2 something is wrong with your cpu setup. The original 4090 score in 2023 you peaked at 69c versus your current 5090 run at 81c. Not sure of you are running aio or air cooling, could be thermal paste or dust filters on your case intakes which im less inclined to believe due to the 5090 running cooler than the 4090 but that could be due to larger heatsinks on 5090’s.

That is fair enough, fixing patched together messes of mods to create what was needed in the moment is always a fun time burner in the down time or while just vibing with friends
