    Just sitting here with my 1080 Ti not even having seen RT in person before lol I really hope path tracing takes off, I want to see more implementations of it.... and makes me want to wait for a 5xxx class card

    Took awhile in the post, but finally arrived Thank you everyone for organizing this fun little competition!

    Nice, it's been painfully slow to see ATX3.0 / PCIE5 PSUs get released, the Seasonic stuff is impossible to find and stuff in Titanium rating is super rare too.

    Thanks for following up on this

    UPS for me

    For what it's worth, I'm in Ontario and just got a notice from UPS today for a parcel that I have to pay $41 brokerage fee... hope this isn't the mouse but I haven't ordered anything else from... anywhere. So I'll have to see, tracking # is invalid too which makes things extra interesting. @damric pretty sure this is the mouse actually, now reading your comment/post.

    They need to stop using Chrome as a browser embed and move to a Firefox-based fork (or their own... they're big enough now) if they want LTS. It's nothing really to do with Valve but rather Google deprecating support, and I bet this will get missed when people report on this as usually no one reads beyond the headline....

    I was really surprised that wasn't implemented on YT/Google. They really should look at those partners as what they often are; multi-million dollar partners and put in place a lot more safeguards, features, effort into supporting them. I feel like YouTube/Google still gets a pass for some reason on the incompetent things they do because of how laid-back everything used to be.

    Can't wait for it to look nothing like that come release

    I remember when 1mil ppd per GPU was insane

    Nice! Didn't realise how much more powerful hardware has gotten for folding, was surprised how my 'ancient' 1080 TI felt buried haha. Thank you everyone for organizing this event, hopefully when I get a newer GPU, and sort out my cooling for my secondary rig I'll be in a better position for at least top 10.

    Vcache is on slower CCD, but it doesn't matter much. It is technically accessible via the other CCD but induces a latency penalty. Windows so far has been very good at making things prefer the CCD0 (with vcache) without any fuss. Memory timings has been a bit of a fuss for me, but just going bit-by-bit. ASUS, as expected, has too high voltages for things. So make sure you double check them, my SOC/VDD MISC was way to high and had to reduce it to 1.25v / 1.35v respectively. Also benefits more power for the cores that way.

    Lots of ups and downs. Got 4 DIMMS of DDR5 @ 6000Mhz to work just fine at 1.4v - so pretty pleased with that as the Internet seemed to lead me to believe that might be a struggle. However I have had some weird microstuttering when enabling PBO and/or curve optimizer in the BIOS (0922, the latest so far). I've just done an offest of -0.0150V to reduce the temps a bit. So far so good, running 8 hours of y-cruncher all test got the DRAM to 79c so I stopped it there. CPU max temps are super close to throttling but they don't luckily - maxes out at ~85c, ~155w and ~1.075v.

    Personally I gravitate towards more minimalist designs, especially as I feel a lot of designs lately are getting more and more maximalist.

    I'm very interested to see how this impacts my performance in VR, that's my main reason for wanting to go 3D V-cache and a beefier CPU. Right now I am (weirdly) CPU limited in most things with my 9900K / 1080 Ti. It'll be almost comical having a 7950X3D and 1080 Ti but I am still very interested in seeing how/what changes in terms of frame times. Here's my previous session in HL2VR via FPSVR for example:

    This is like deja vu, I also just got this motherboard to pair along with my 7950X3D. Barely managed to snag one before they went out of stock at Newegg

    That's a very good idea, just updated it now and added a ton of tags too haha. Just bought a X670E Hero board, already got 4x16GB DIMMs of DDR5 waiting - just waiting on the CPU now. Going to try and buy one ASAP so hopefully I don't encounter any stocking issues.
