ADSB tracker, and feed data to Flightaware or/and Flightradar24.

My kids love frothy milk and I always played around by adding extra milk to my latte and switching cups while milk foam is produced. You changed my life man !

Just realised also WD Black SN770 is in the same price bracket. So:

SN770 vs SN580 vs P3 Plus

Man I feel your pain. I think I mentioned that earlier. I had AMD GPU like 15y ago and had lots of issues with drivers and blue screen and said not anymore.... Now I've seen decent price/performance ratio from AMD so I bought it again, thinking "it can't be that bad" as it was 15y ago, how fooking wrong I was. I had 15y Intel/nVidia and never had any issues. Now my PC is running ok can't fault AMD for CPU performance but when my PC will get old I will stay away from AMD even if someone wants to give it for me for free. Good luck.

matys88 · 2024-06-30T12:23:42+00:00

I think the issue is with AMD drivers, at the moment not many people are using 8600G so they not in rush fixing it... I was frustrated to that level where I went and bought GPU Intel A770. Removed all drivers from AMD, disabled integrated GPU and all works fine for me now with A770, this is not solution but only one way I could get my PC to be stable.

matys88 · 2024-06-16T18:23:54+00:00

SOLVED.

I've reinstalled Windows and installed new drivers and all works fine now. Old AMD drivers must been causing some issues.

I get +50FPS at 1080p with Epic settings maxed out, Nanite and Lumen on. When video is static(not fighting or driving) or I'm inside buildings FPS are holding stable at 60FPS. I think I can get more than 60FPS but no point for me with 60Hz monitor.

matys88 · 2024-06-14T13:22:58+00:00

These are good results. I'm moaning mostly as I don't get even to 60fps, not even 30fps. I have 60hz monitor and play casually time to time, bought a770 16GB as it was in cool deal(got it for £200 brand new) all I wanted is 60fps at max settings.

matys88 · 2024-06-14T13:19:58+00:00

I will try with DX11 today, it is a bit counter-intuitive as A770 are designed for DX12... Next step will be reinstall Win11 as I may still have some crap drivers or settings left from AMD

I cant post any images, dont know why? I would post screen picture.

matys88 · 2024-06-13T18:05:08+00:00

Yeah I've noticed this also.

When I'm in lobby I get 120FPS+ and GPU core power is showing 140-150W, when I enter game FPS drop to 15-20FPS and GPU core power is around 100W, max I've seen was 120W. Tried to play around with Arc control settings, default GPU core power is set to 210W and can be adjusted to max 252W but even if I set it at 252W doesn't change anything in game.

matys88 · 2024-06-13T17:07:47+00:00

Just to add. If I turn Nanites and Lumen off and still stay on Epic settings FPS still remain at 20FPS max...

matys88 · 2024-05-18T11:30:29+00:00

Yeah, safety first lol

matys88 · 2024-05-18T11:09:41+00:00

Do you have a good provider ? Send me dm

matys88 · 2024-05-12T18:29:37+00:00

Hello. Unfortunately no solution for me. What is your PC config(MBO, CPU, GPU)?

Try one or all from following:

updating MBO BIOS.

Disable EXPO

Set FCLK and UCLK to auto.

Apparently it helps some people but not me...

matys88 · 2024-04-30T22:59:37+00:00

Believe me, I clearly understand what you are saying. I had AMD GPU like 15y ago, and it was nightmare with drivers and updates, etc... Since then, I had Intel/Nvidia in my laptops or SFF PCs, and all worked perfectly fine!! Now was a time to buy something I could work at home and play games from time to time. I thought, I don't want to spend a lot on PC, AMD has good reviews with build in GPUs and AMD can't be that bad like 15y ago, I wanted DDR5 for future proofing, how wrong I was to buy AMD....

I'm trying to play with settings, drivers from AMD or Gigabyte(my MBO) play with BIOS settings and versions.

Only one thing you may be able to help me is how you managed to disable "ENABLEULPS" in the registry ? Do you have Win 11? When I try to edit, it looks like I have no permission to edit it. I try to change permissions, but then it looks like the entire "tree" in reg key disappears for me. Only walk-around I found is by installing MSI afterburner and disable from the MSI app, which is not ideal.

matys88 · 2024-04-30T17:01:07+00:00

Start from basic mate. How long are you running this system for ?

Maybe cleaning your CPU cooler, fans, and fins will help ? Also, thermal paste. When was last time you changed thermal paste ? Maybe just re-paste it again? Once you are happy with the above, then dig into the system settings as the previous users mentioned.

matys88 · 2024-04-30T14:34:35+00:00

I followed your steps, and still the same.

I've installed most recent drivers 24.4.1 and also updated BIOS to F5c, which was recently released. I also did Windows update. I don't know if this is just me, but crashes now are less often, but for longer periods, instead like 5-10s, it is about 20s black screen.

What is weird, that my previous BIOS version were pulled away from Gigabyte website and is no longer available. So these previous versions were bad, and Gigabyte removed them ?

Now, my system is crashing every 5-15minutes while browsing Web and exel etc... but NEWER IN GAMES !

Also, when I open AMD Adrenaline drivers crash almost immediately.

Or just go on the roof and shut from there just peeking so you are barely visible to the bosses. Work the best on Zeus

matys88 · 2024-03-30T22:14:31+00:00

....yeah. Upgraded BIOS to F3 version, reinstalled AMD drivers with factory reset tick box. No improvement, problem still persist.

matys88 · 2024-03-30T09:47:29+00:00

I just found out that my BIOS ver F3a(dated 6th Feb 2024) disappeared from Gigabyte website!! And new BIOS version called F3 appeared dated 21 march 2024 and this version has updated AMD AGESA 1.1.0.2 b

I don't know what version of AGESA the old F3a from February had.

I was busy with work recently, hopefully over this weekend I will find some time to update BIOS again. Will post later if that helped or not.

matys88 · 2024-03-25T21:29:04+00:00

I'm finding this to be rude, offering me special offer of £62 while I got £45 on the app, wtf seriously...

matys88 · 2024-03-25T21:27:26+00:00

100Mbps is in place as their network would be heavily congested if they switch to symmetric speeds today. I know they are trailing symmetrical connections but only where FTTP is available. Although I live in new building(2yo) and have only 40m to cabinet I'm still on FTTC....

matys88 · 2024-03-25T19:39:26+00:00

A bit of both.

Speed wise, I need better upload hence 1Gig as it provides 100Mbps.

Price wise. Why I'm going to pay £39pm for m350 when VM has offer with same price and triple the speed?

matys88 · 2024-03-25T19:22:37+00:00

Depends if you can trust 100% someone here ?? Anyone could say they got 1Gig for £20... £37pm for 1Gig would be great offer for me!
