I canceled the fans that I was going to use to add more fans into the case, P12 Max 5 pack so that I can re-evaluate how much fans to add into the 4000D. Its not leaving anytime soon. Unless my friend wants it and I can afford a Fractal North because holy fucking shit these things cost the same as a regular B650 motherboard.
So you have four 120mm fans now? What I would do is put three of them in the front, and one at the rear (the slot behind the CPU cooler). That way you'll get positive pressure and straightforward airflow (air comes in from the front and supplies the CPU, GPU, and motherboard surface with cool air, CPU air is exhausted directly at the back and GPU air is exhausted through the back and top.
I still have the stock fans. I am currently re-adjusting my order so that I have enough fans without overpaying for it. I should have just have 5 P12 Max fans with a fan hub next week, using the stock fans for exhaust on the top and the rest of the P12s occupying the 1 rear as exhaust, 3 front and 1 bottom as intake (while removing the HDD hub near the PSU, still have to find a way to connect the fan there since there is no screws on it). I do like the North but as I said, damn what a really hefty price. Its like the price of the 4000D and the Lian Li Lancool 207 combined lol.
In that case, at least lock the top fans to the lowest speed. You don't need them and having them actually remove significant amounts of air will harm your cooling, especially the front one (the air path for the first front fan will literally be right out the frist top fan, without having passed any components at all.
GPU chiplets scale terribly the higher you go, an AMD 4090 equivalent would pro have been chugging back 800w and been quite unstable.
I've been using Rider since EAP and it's very competent up against Visual Studio. It's not super great if you work with Forms a lot, but it can do previewing of WPF applications and probably supports Forms previewing now. Performance and responsiveness absolutely shits all over Visual Studio, especially considering how slow ReSharper is.
So they weren’t comparing the 50 series to the updated super versions of each card? If that’s the case then the performance uplift numbers are actually even worse that at least for the 5070 and 5070ti.
compared to the supers these really aren't more than 5% at most, especially if you don't include the DLSS. a decent OC gets you there.
Nvidia wiping their ass with gamer bux yet again. But it's all good. Just turn on 4x interpolation bullshit and suddenly 5070 = 4090, didn't you read the marketing?
Yeah, something tells my I made the right choice picking up an RTX 4070 Ti Super when I did.
thats another part people don't seem to understand, if you read through the list of games that support DLSS 3.5 and will most likely support DLSS 4, they're mostly shit, and as we showed the only reason to buy a 5000 series card vs a 4000 super is if you want to play those games.
If it's a relatively simple update utility, you may be able to get away with live booting HBCD PE and running the utility inside of that. It's not guaranteed to work as WinPE is so cut down, but I've had success with this method when updating firmware on Dell servers.
Jumping from Skyrim at 720p to Skyrim at 8K (36x the pixels) is going to be so epic.
