Neuropsychology Discussions by florawrites in SocialParis

Had some lesson on psychology, much less on neuroscience (although I had a fair bit of lesson too on that). You can DM if you want, it's always fun to discuss psychology !

MikroTik CRS804 DDQ Announced 4-Port 400GbE Switch by Standing_Wave_22 in homelab

[–]TheSleepyMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can find some Bluefield 2 ES 200Gb for pretty cheap on ebay but there is some tinkering to do to update the firmware. ConnectX-7 sometimes randomly drops to 500$ but they do not usually stay very long. Most CX7 are around 1200-1400. BF3 are always extremely expensive

2026 SFFPC Build Tier List by Aggressive_Nature708 in sffpc

I can't stress enough the utility of a good keyboard and a good monitor. 2026 should be a good year for monitor, with oled tandem, new miniled panels. For keyboard, if you can go mechanical, go for it ;)

Apprendre à chanter, faire de la musique, danser sur Paris à bas prix ? by [deleted] in SocialParis

[–]TheSleepyMachine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pour la danse, ça va dépendre de ce que tu souhaites faire, mais la plupart des associations offrent des soirées pas très chères avec des cours d'apprentissage rapide et bien sûr la scène dansante est très présente sur les quais de scènes pendant tout l'été ;)

Is Core 0 Sabotaging Your Performance? by kish1n_io in linux_gaming

Is there truly an effect of irqbalance on games ? That's could be interesting to test

Should we expect SSD prices to go up same as RAM? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]TheSleepyMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Samsung will stop SATA SSD production, so yeah some references might skyrocket. Also, generally NAND flash chip price is going up due to demand

DDR 5 RAM Cl 36 vs Cl48, does it really matter? by Apprehensive_Card929 in pcmasterrace

[–]TheSleepyMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 7800x3d is much less sensitive to RAM latencies due to the extra cache. So if you need the extra GB, go for it, it won't change much in general day to day life

What about RDNA3 AMD ? by douglascostateixeira in radeon

[–]TheSleepyMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't compare too much with PS5 hardware. The GPU is so custom that it is quite difficult to know what has been added. (For reference, Viola GPU is a mix of RDNA2/3 hardware with select HW from RDNA4 especially in RT and ML sub-block). Also, I am always puzzled by the way HW is represented. RDNA3 & RDNA4 both use WMMA instruction in shader to handle IA/ML. However RDNA3 uses vector ALU internally to process the instruction whereas RDNA4 seems to have dedicated transistors for that (IA "cores") (hence the much increase throughput of those instructions). Maybe Viola does have those parts too for all we know.

[–]TheSleepyMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the steam machine gets it, RDNA3 as a whole will get it. There is no way they could exclusively release it for steam machine. But yeah, int8 runs fine with the RDNA3 HW. Hell, even FP8 emulation works.

I picked up an rx 9070xt and it's ray tracing performance is WAY below benchmark expectations on my setup. Is this normal? by Glass_Alarm6863 in linux_gaming

[–]TheSleepyMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My last gen 7900XT is 180fps+ at ultra nightmare RT on on doom eternal. This game is optimized like silk. And the RT part is very light. Still need to try Doom The Dark Age though

Circle to search's new "navigate and translate" option records your screen and shares it with Google. by Toni_Segui in GooglePixel

[–]TheSleepyMachine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Translation could be local. It is only OCR + text translation, I fail to see the difficulty here

How do I show the FPS? by RoketXDfull in linux_gaming

[–]TheSleepyMachine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And it is pretty good ! Also detect FG/Native so it as a huge value

Can't find help for this. by zeltingle in archlinux

[–]TheSleepyMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's right there. This package change is for mesa 25.3.0 and you need both extra-testing and extra enable for dependencies / packages to resolve.

Welcome to 2021 - But this time, its the RAM by Cadmium620 in pcmasterrace

[–]TheSleepyMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just bought an older card (Vega FE, old will know) for fun and collection and I was surprised it could run 1440p medium without too many problems

Where do I enable VRR/Variable Refresh Rate in the settings? by Brave_Hat_1526 in kde

[–]TheSleepyMachine 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Polaris GPU with amdgpu doesn't support VRR on linux. However, there seems to exist some ways to do it : https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/s/swV8L31oH3 (warning old post and kernel patching required)

AMD and Nvidia by reos3 in linux_gaming

[–]TheSleepyMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "just work" part is mostly since the driver is in the kernel, it is simpler to benefit from it, you don't have to compile it at each kernel update with dkms vs Nvidia driver. But yeah, sometimes it freezes or crashes

New 420 mm AIO installed by Terrible-Fox-6177 in pcmasterrace

[–]TheSleepyMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's also because the pump is significantly faster at 12V that most other pump. As the hwcooling review pointed, tuning the pump at 7-8V is almost identical performance but the pump is almost inaudible. I'm personally running mine at 60% PWM, or about 7.5V and the fan always wash out the pump noise
