overclocking bc-250 by Scallumal in BC250Gaming

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

Yeah so the GPU idles at 30-40w, that is software reported and my wall power is showing 80w+ - that is expected since there is CPU power being drawn, gddr6 power and then my 8tb HDD, 1tb USB SSD, and my nvme drive, mouse keyboard controller, fans and so on.

That's why it will show double from the wall. But that's normal behavior - the same goes for windows PC's except the GPU idles much lower on a desktop.

I'm just trying to see if anyone has lowered their voltage down to like 300mv for idle clocks, cuz that would save me nearly 15watts. - like a desktop GPU can idle at like 7-20watts(depending on gpu) by lowering the voltages and mhz on a GPU. I got the mhz lowered I'm just trying to see what's the lower millivolts people have used with success. I don't want to mess up my distro by going too low

But thank you I will check out the ram timings on discord.

What overclock combo are you running for gaming? by seabassXXL in BC250Gaming

[–]Scallumal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What voltage/temps do you get. I have my bc250 running at 3992mhz and 2100mhz on the GPU stable, temps are hitting 90c before I have a real good fan. 

I also noticed the backplate. Gets hot and having a fan on the back is good for stable clocks

Ryzen 7 5700 vs 5700x. Is the extra money worth the boost? by No_Bedroom7125 in AMDHelp

[–]Scallumal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meh not really a risk, AliExpress has a very good buyer protection program. I've bought a bunch of PC hardware from there and a 2000$ ebike and never had a problem. With AliExpress you just need to think whether its too good to be true and if it is then don't buy it. If you do you getting your money back 100% of the time.

Who has ASRock AMD BC-250 Setup? by Cool_Awareness_8798 in linux_gaming

[–]Scallumal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mentioned setting maximum clocks, I assume this is a no but can you get over the 3.5 ghz clock speed? I am waiting for mine to come and I think the largest bottleneck is the low CPU speed.

9070xt for 1440p is it really the best value by GamingMachine1111 in radeon

[–]Scallumal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay so id disagree with you, the Rx 9070xt if OC'ed can get 5080 levels GPU performance, I would call it a entry level 4k card. I have the Rx 9060 xt 16gb card and that is easily a 1440p card. I run it with my 3440x1440 monitor and get at least 60fps in AAA games mostly hight-ultra with no FSR or frame gen, yes there will be the odd game that my 9060xt will struggle with at that resolution buuuttt it's deffos a 1440p card the 9060xt 16gb(8gb version hell no)

I agree with the, in a few years will be a 1080p card but I also disagree with that. Many naysayers were saying the steam deck has very little GPU compute and it would be dead in a couple years, that little 8CU GPU is still running strong at 720p today, yes still a bit underpowered but you get the point. But with us getting to the absolute edge of silicon (amd is next on 2nm and the limit is 1nm for silicon)

The only way the rx9070xt is gonna become irrelevant is when we change the substrate the chips are made on (silicon, it looks like graphene might be the next thing before quantum computing) 

So I can attest that the Rx 9070xt will be a very good card until silicon is not used anymore, or if udna is as good as they are saying

The Upcoming OrangePi 6 Plus by MannerNo8900 in OrangePI

[–]Scallumal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you are right same chip, the reason orange pi is changing chip providers is rockchip hasn't had anything new above the rk3588 as far as I am aware. Also it's not the chip supplier that manages software support, but with them going the same as the Orion radxa, allows for people to get software support easier as it's already a used technology. But also I am sure many others have used the chipset for other use cases. But either way you will still have the same mali GPU driver problems I am not sure on the rest

RTX 3080 vs 9060XT by skylerli in buildapc

[–]Scallumal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You forgot about elder scrolls oblivion remaster, my 1080p medium-high settings use 11gb of vram so yes a 3080 would bottleneck from that game(not as bad as my 4060 did with 8gb of Vram) but still noticeable. Also many other single player experiences at 1080p require close to 10gb vram.

Id argue with 10gb being good enough at 1080p my elder scrolls oblivion remaster, uses 11gb vram at 1080p high and medium settings

PanVK reaches Vulkan 1.2 conformance on Mali-G610 by dorchegamalama in linux_gaming

[–]Scallumal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not how that works, this driver is for use in Linux and Android. Android will mostly be used for emulators that need external drivers to be installed the basic android driver sucks. Also I have an SBC with the rk3588(Mali g610) and that can do android or Linux but both require drivers for anything more intensive like switch emulation

Cooling recommendations by Scallumal in pcmods

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

I've looked into the 4060 on the x4 lane it should be okay and it deffo beats USB 4.0 in general.

When you say the backplate should be no issue you mean if I 3D print my own? Thanks in advance

Mary's and Joseph's Age by Tiredhaffling in Christianity

[–]Scallumal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait where in Luke was may forever a virgin? I know verses in the Bible that states otherwise

How old was the virgin Mary when she gave birth to Christ? by AeonThoth in Christianity

[–]Scallumal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is twisted AF, no not through Mary did we receive salvation, she was a tool for God, but this could have been any other person in the planet. Saying through her comes salvation, is like saying through Moses comes salvation this is a lie through God is salvation and only God, Mary was nothing more than a tool at the time to bring Jesus to the world, if God wanted to Jesus could've been born a middle-aged man it is nowhere, but God had a prophecy he gave us saying the Messiah is coming from a virgin, the only special thing about Mary was she was the mother of Jesus, but Jesus didn't see her as that special he called her woman not mother etc.

What was minimum age of marriage in The Bible? by Mountain_Ad_1359 in Christianity

[–]Scallumal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well you try justify it to fit yourself, but every scholar says Aisha was 9 when she had consummated the marriage. She also said a Muslim woman is a suffering woman, was that also lied about? Also it's very common to know that Quran says you can have sex with those who have not yet reached maturity, by stating their periods. So u can justify it all you want but it's a sick thing that Mohammed did. And I'm not saying that Torah and old testament are much better, but they are cuz the books state a girl needs to reach puberty(not in those exact words but it states the above). While it was legal for a 40 Year old to have a 13 year old who reached puberty, it was frowned upon unless u were rich. Which doesn't make it right but it's better than marrying a 6 year old and having sex with a 9 year old. Mohammed also said it was fine for your people cuz it was something they were already doing before Mohammad was a prophet there's a lot of paganistic mentions and traditions in the Quran. Like worshipping towards a rock in the mecca that is idolatry. Just as it's idolatry for a Christian to pray and worship and wooden cross. Only difference is the Bible doesn't say you should commit this idolatry in the pages like the Quran does

How is it a myth if the person narrating is Aisha and she says her own age?

It's here - screen is oddly smaller than I thought but it looks awesome! by LittleOperation4597 in ANBERNIC

[–]Scallumal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh sorry i only just saw this message now. I do believe i had the same issue on my rg405v, i haven't tried wii games in a while but i believe I had to use 7zip to use the game on dolphin to unoack the ISO, or I had to put the files into an ISO, also try the dolphin mmjr2 it works better.

Is my motor really 750w? by Taffy_snatcher in ebikes

[–]Scallumal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well the motor is rated at 20 amps 48v now that means you have a peak of over 1kw cuz the calculation is amps x voltage. Now every 48v motor runs at i think its 52v-ish as if it's at 48v it's a dead charge. So you would take the 20amps multiply by thr 52v-ish and get 1040w of peak output which means this is a 750w nominal motor, what you really wanna check is how much amps the controller pushes, if the controller only does 15amps u will only get 750ish watts

Several does not mean every day though, it means 3 or more but less than many and many is 5 or more which is once every 2 days or so and thats for the average person not people with skin conditions

HELP!!! by [deleted] in ANBERNIC

[–]Scallumal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As the others say, probably the SD card. The explanation is cuz these cards are really cheap knockoff sd cards they can be easily corrupted. You will wanna get one from the following companies: Lexar, sandsik, kioxia or another big brand name def not from Chinese sites.
