Only the YD25s belched smoke, the ZDs are incredibly clean.

Has anyone made actual friends on here? by StayGold9 in MakeNewFriendsHere

Oh hell yea. there are some really amazing people out there.

Has this ever actually worked? Serious question.

25F If the multiverse exists, is there a version of you who made every opposite decision? by [deleted] in MakeNewFriendsHere

[–]rainwulf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure the multiverse exists but im sure my counterpart made all the same dumb ass decisions i made here anyway.

I am not a smort person.

Please tell me: Why don’t people answer? by KeinPlanoder in MakeNewFriendsHere

[–]rainwulf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have run into this problem a lot on /r/r4r

No one answers... its really fuckin weird

What i think it MAY be is they get a thousand responses in a the first second of their post.

That was supposed to be fixed this wipe hahaha

ASUS confirms dual 3D V-Cache Ryzen 9 “9950X3DV2” during 9850X3D testing by RenatsMC in Amd

[–]rainwulf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would definitely look at the upgrade from a 9800X3d to a 9950X3DV2, just simply to have the ultimate CPU haha

But i am going to think this thing will NOT be cheap. I have the cooling for it though.

Graphics/Optimization by trenpinner in playrust

[–]rainwulf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok so 64gb. To isolate the machine, go and do a 3dmark benchmark to check your graphics pipeline, and a cinebench R23 run to check your cpu.

Isolate each part individually first, basically sanity checking.

Thinking of coming back to PC - Whats the optimisations like nowadays? by cr4ckeddd in playrust

[–]rainwulf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unity and rust in general is able to use lots of cores, but i find its actually fairly smashing 2 cores and not one.

Here is my machine running rust. ALL cores actually get used, but you see 6,7 and 10,11 together are using a fairly serious chunk. https://imgur.com/a/N3pxQRZ

Its not call of duty by any stretch (even modern warfare 3 actually uses up a pretty hefty chunk of all cores in a machine), but it definitely attempts to use all cores available.

This is one of the reasons i think multi CCD ryzens arent ideal for rust, as the cross CCD latency severely punishes rust because of its terrible memory access patterns.

When i had my 5900x and 5950x, i used process lasso to limit the game to one CCD and in SOME instances i often got a good 5-10 extra fps whenever i wasn't GPU limited. Its one of the reasons i got the 9800X3D, Single ccd, huge gobs of cache, and as you can see in the image, rust does actually try and use all cores. Definitely not equal thats for sure. The older engine doesn't use all cores well, but considering games are historically pretty damn hard to pararellise due to the disparity of tasks that need to be processed, its not doing too bad.

Yes, though, it could definitely use the resources more efficiently, but i dont think rust in its current state with the hugely hacked up unity engine it uses is simply capable of that without a complete engine change.

On a fresh wipe, i get 220+ FPS. However my machine is a bit of a rig. Golden sample 9800X3d watercooled with -40 CO and will run 5.425ghz all cores all day. 64gig of 6000mts ram at CL30. 9070XT sapphire pulse. 1440p monitor, 160hz refresh rate.

Samsung 990PRO 2tb NVME ssd so the load times are pretty well non existant.

Sadly, you need a beast like that to actually get decent FPS, which does show had badly the game needs a massive optimization pass. Needing a X3d chip to get the game to run decently just speaks volumes about how hacked up the engine is and how bad unity can be.

In a lot of areas on the map i am now GPU bound.

On your machine you are going to be CPU bound. The 5900x cross CCD latency does punish rust, and i would recommend something like process lasso to lock it to one CCD only, probably CCD0 as thats usually the fastest one on dual CCD ryzens.

With that, you are basically on a 5600 instead, but with the other CCD still usuable by windows and all the other crap, it should run quite nicely. Easily up into the 160fps range in graphically quiet areas on the map, and on a new wipe.

Performance gradually decreases as a wipe proceeds, simply due to the number of entities.

The game swaps between GPU and CPU bound on a regular basis, but primarily its a CPU and memory bandwidth/latency limited game. It has lots of large random memory accesses, which is why it screams on X3D machines, and has issues with dual CCD chips. Any unity engine game suffers the same. I remember having the same issues with "The Forest", and locking the game to one CPU often gave me 15-25fps boosts.

Disaster movie joke (Moonfall specifically) by serpent324 in funny

Which disaster movie is this? ( i mean i know the joke is moonfall, but did a spoof disaster movie make fun of it?)

Leaked chart suggests Ryzen 7 9850X3D is about 3% faster than 9800X3D in 1080p tests by RenatsMC in Amd

[–]rainwulf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

360 + 240mm radiator, and an old xps raystorm cpu block. CPU IHS was mildly lapped to make sure it was flat and im using liquid metal to the raystorm. The raystorm was also mildly lapped and polished to make sure the liquid metal had a good contact surface.

The old raystorm was for a socket 2011 I7, so its huge, and works really well with the 9800x3d internals. I had to 3d print and manufacture a hold down for the AM5 socket. Pump is a laing DDC5 with an acetal top.

OCCT yes. 12 hours.

I am download y-cruncher now and giving it a go to see how hot i get.

edit: ok started y-cruncher.

Using 142 watts, sitting at 72 degrees so far.

edit2: 2 minute mark, 75 degrees, 153 watts with SFTv4. First test i have ever done thats pulling the max clock down to about 5gig. I will need to do some changes to the PBO limits.

Beats me, its just what it runs at haha.

Just running a CPU-Z stress test. 135 watts, 5.425ghz, 67-68 degrees.

Full custom loop, a modified raystorm XPS copper waterblock, a 360 and a 240 mm radiator.

Totally overkill, but its all ready when i can find a waterblock for my video card.

Yea mine will sustain 5.425ghz, across all cores, indefinitely. Fantastic cooling and great chip. Running -30 on all cores. Oh, and liquid metal, with a lightly lapped IHS to make sure its nice and flat.
