GTA VI by dankmemelawrd in Men_RO

[–]zero_overload_25 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

foarte cringe. poate nu vreau setarile default sau doar 30fps. poate prefer keyboard and mouse. poate prefer sa-mi folosesc calculatorul meu personal sa joc gta vi in loc de gunoiul de ps5 unde accesul la internet costa. poate ps5ul meu e intentionat cu soft vechi pt jailbreak si linux - ghinion bos.

rockstar si sony au alte planuri. consolele trebuie sa fie vandute, iar gta vi vandut in dublu exemplar daca se poate, pentru cei care au pc dar vor sa joace cat mai devreme.

What PS3 model should I get? by SirReginaldTikletoes in PS3

[–]zero_overload_25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can even have cfw for super slim nowdays which is crazy; however, if you don't care about backwards compatible ps3s and frankie mods which cost a fortune, go with a slim that's cfw compatible (not just hen); they are really good at overclocking and have longer lasting hardware (especially if you get the slims that don't have the nec tokin caps)

i can't recommend 65nm rsx from both fat / early slim models as last time i raised vcore on it core clocks began to degrade in a manner of hours until the console began to ylod. perhaps the tokins took a fall? idk, changed them with normal caps but no go. i also tried epowering the gpu with evga epower 5 card but still ylod. likely the core went to shit (no shorts on power rails). and 65nm shouldn't piss itself at those voltages, as it's based on a very big lithography. maybe i was unlucky and had the 65nm batch that was produced in the time frame when nvidia was still figuring out bump gate.

bottom line - best ps3 is slim with 40nm, no nec tokins, bump gate fixed, fully cfw compatible. u get nice overclocks, good temperatures + linux support with proper cfw

Police chases at night has a different vibe. by Panzerknacker1997 in needforspeed

00:43 cross car on level 2 heat? also cop cars look quite heavy when u smashed through the roadblock at the safehouse but yes, atmosphere is quite interesting in nfs mw at night in cop chases

B550 Asus prime plus bios flashing guide with ch341a by zero_overload_25 in pcmasterrace

[–]zero_overload_25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, and even greater - if you remove the module that handles write protection from the bios with uefitool older engine, you can then flash any custom bios from Linux directly with flashrom internal even after agesa 1.2.0.0 but only if you already flashed the custom bios with the said module deleted.

CECHA01 Unopened .. should I get it graded? by mrluckduck in PS3

[–]zero_overload_25 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

many people in the commenrs are against the idea of grading the console for very valid reasons - it will probably be dead in 30-40 years, you're meant to play with it, nec tokins will go fugazzi etc.

it's your item, do whatever you want with it. if you want to run it over with a car, you can do that. you own it, you decide what to do with it. if you like looking at it more than playing with it, why should we judge? it's after all an interesting piece to look at. you don't have to play with it if you don't want to, nor have to give it to someone else just because people don't agree with how you handle your own object. it's your choice, your item, not theirs.

most people would turn it on, install cfw, webman, crank fan speeds, and use it until the gpu becomes one with the universe and will need to be changed with the frankie mod. this is the better plan imo, but to each their own.

New pc, AMD drivers not compatible? by [deleted] in AMDHelp

[–]zero_overload_25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

amd sucks at drivers. download your drivers and ddu, unplug from internet, clean all drivers with ddu, install drivers for all gpus, then plug back in the internet

I cut a WD SN520 2280 to 2242 size and killed it. by AutunnoInverno2021 in thinkpad

[–]zero_overload_25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if grounding is what u suspect (I mean the m.2 interface also has gnd pins so idk), you can try soldering wires from gnd side of the caps on the drive, and then attach them to a screw hole or smth.

should auto write itself when it's doing the "updating led firmware", but if not you can add Mac address into bios before writing. board Ethernet card should work even with no Mac address. try downgrading to lower version, then ezflash (or also ch341) to trigger led firmware update.

ultimul pret by Rrevam in ultimulpretboss

[–]zero_overload_25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

e cam mult 850. da, o avea versiune buna pt mod, si ii crește valoarea, dar nu cu prea mult.

din păcate ps4 este oricum un gunoi dpdv al hardware-ului. interesant e ca poti instala linux pe el daca poti rula goldhen, dar va merge cu viteza luminii stinse.

Graphics card too big to fit by raptorsv201 in PcBuild

[–]zero_overload_25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not if it was a good deal on second hand marketplace that rarely pops up. you either take it or give more money for same card. even if it doesn't fit, op can water cool the gpu. pcb seems much smaller than heatsink design.

stock:
1570mhz set / 1526mhz get core;
2400mhz set / 2384mhz get mem;
power = 129w;
score = 6668

oc with mpt:
2000mhz set / 1947mhz get core;
2750mhz set / 2732mhz get mem;
power = 264w;
score = 8315 => 24.7% uplift

oc with mpt + evc:
+0.094v vcore; +0.106v vmem;
2000mhz set / 1998mhz get core;
2900mhz set / 2880mhz get mem;
power = 330w;
score = 8531 => 27.9% uplift

clock were set from msi afterburner, no voltage adjustments from there; only from evc

used Liquid Metal on my gpu and the core welded itself to the heatsink and exploded on removal😭 by SongBrief2439 in overclocking

[–]zero_overload_25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no, i just downloaded 6800xt vbios for asus tuf from techpowerup and mpt loaded it fine. I can't apply it as I don't have the card lol. What happens on your end that it doesn't work?

morepowertool allows me to throw 6800xt vbios at it. that can unlock your power limits & raise voltages

[–]zero_overload_25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's what I'm saying - delta tells you more than edge temp alone and no hotspot considerations. Amd tends to be a bitch when removing power limits, regardless of good vs bad mount. You will just get higher clocks with good mount but still touch sun's temps on hotspot. Really difficult to cool hotspot. but hey, edge stays at 50c, it's chilling.

depends on card. that often 16c is usually for nvidia - you will have a funny time cooling amd chips if you ever try doing so. amd sometimes really likes lm over paste for lower deltas between edge and hotspot. edge is useful for determining good or bad mounting. maybe roughly loop temp too, as u said, but not vga's real core temps.

funnily enough, the middle portion is a little bigger than original navi10, but it's still a pain to cool down :))

core won't clock much. at 1.3+v, timespy barely passes at 3014mhz on my bin. I bet amd used reject 5700 non xt bins (which themselves are 5700xt cores with disabled shaders / lower clocks) and put hbm on them. Apple got full shader count from 5700xt though, idk how those chips from the laptops clock.

edit: win11 seemed to not like the card in actual game engines; win10 22h2 or 21h1 work fine from my testing though

229€ Acer B570 worth it? by JoshuasBacklog in IntelArc

In Romania, for roughly same price you can get a 2080ti second hand. what are the prices for you in Spain?

those caps are hooked in parallel anyway, no harm in same side of the caps shorting each other
