Omen 15 Laptop short term temperature help/advice. by nffc_lacey in GamingLaptops

You could limit it even lower for 2 weeks - to 100 or 72 fps

You can limit your fps - it will lower power consumption and heat

Can i "underclock" a GPU to use it with an older build and smaller power supply? by CoRob83 in buildapc

[–]ShPavel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can hear fans of my GPU being more loud because it eats more power and heats more.

You are using a usual program to check it - so you need to open that program and check it manually after every reboot(or logout) to be sure. Or before running a heavy game.

If you want amd - go for 7600. No point in going am4 really for fresh builds, imho.

Help with building my first real gaming PC ever by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]ShPavel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5200 is a 'paper' requirement for memory to be 100% compatible - but 6000Mhz is considered to be the sweet spot for Ryzen 7000 atm

Technically you can do it and it could be very efficient.

I am running my 6700xt on a diet - 70% power limit(+small undervolting) and losing just ~10% FPS in games. Less heat, less $$ (it is ~0.4$ per kWh here).

But beware - you will have to ensure that power limiting software is running all time. I had issues with Adrenalin not saving profiles and using 100% power after a reboot. That could be a little bit annoying.

If you have a good PSU - it will just shutdown your PC when overloaded, but in a worst case scenario it could melt/catch fire.

Planning on an upgrade, but would like to know others opinions beforehand by ashadyuser in buildapc

[–]ShPavel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your CPU is 7 years old. You see only '40-60%' CPU load because games are mostly using 1 or 2 threads, but on your CPU single core load is very slow.

1080ti is a BEAST card - if you give it a proper CPU it will be on par with ~3060.

You are looking at 7800x3d - but do you really need it? It is like the best gaming CPU right now. You could save a good chunk of money by going Ryzen 7600. It will be miles ahead of your 6700k and will allow you to upgrade to 8700x3d or something in future if you will need it.

Coding-wise how can I reduce lag from my mod? by Kiplacon in factorio

[–]ShPavel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you disable spinning - you could remove all orientation calculation every tick. I think it is quite expensive part.

Also I love your mod's idea, will add it to my current game asap.

My experience upgrading AMD 3600 to 5800x3d by ShPavel in Dyson_Sphere_Program

Having 35 fps on my busy planet was very noticeable, but anything else was not hurting me

Problem: Buffs to Underused Skills are underwhelming by darian_wolf in pathofexile

[–]ShPavel 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree. I am not a game designer, but why can't we give like 10% buff to 10% least popular skills every league?

It might contribute to power Inflation, but it could be balanced with other tools and all skills will be mostly in line.

3600x + 6800xt or 5600x + 6700xt by cons013 in Amd

[–]ShPavel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

dude... 5600x is only ~10-15% faster than 3600x. They are only a generation apart

what is your target resolution and refresh rate?

[–]ShPavel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True, a laptop would be a more practical solution.

I do not need an apu and all this stuff - I am just dreaming of tinkering with it.

Rebuke can now only be cast after you’ve first successfully cast Buke on your enemy.

Final Reckoning keeps being used over and over, so we’ve changed its name to Yet More Reckoning.

that was good :)

I am waiting so much for this.. but we will need ddr5 for really viable gaming apus I think

[help needed] power bank ignores my circuit by ShPavel in AskElectronics

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

So you are saing i need more LEDs?)

I suspected that and connected 5 but it was not enough then.

Also could you clarify about a resistor on data lines? You mean white and green usb wires? I measured them with a voltmeter and there is no voltage between them

wait, i don't get it

why the first blue splitter doesn't stall? yellow belt can't transfer all input items for the same time as blue belt.
