I'll repeat my same comment from YT...... "Pls pls pls be playable with a 6900XT at 4k. At least give us FSR capabilities that make it so."

Ahhh yes, the Tide Pod generation is building computers now.

Interesting problem, and interesting solution I suppose. What's wrong with busting out a paper towel and rubbing alcohol again (or a Q tip)?

This x2.

Have you been peeking on what I'm getting ready to write up for my reviews?

I must've mis-remembered his power, he's using a Peavey CS-800 in that video. He was using 45w each BEFORE that video, that must've been where I got it from. Here's the thread: Build your own 2x12" TH (The Kraken 212 TH) | Page 4 | diyAudio WWW.DIYAUDIO.COM You got pics? it looks like a box in the back of a van, this box, Reed Exodus Anarchy 25hz Tapped Horn - AVS Forum scaled up about 20%... Obviously you can't build that same setup TODAY since those subs are no longer manufactured or sold. But the same concept could hold true. Tapped horns can be absolutely mean, but they're huge usually.

I wrote a couple (bad ones) on audio gear I bought. I don't think it matters that much what you're writing about, so long as its tech oriented and you enjoy it. Games would certainly fit that category.

Build yourself one of these then. That's 2x 12" JBL subs I believe it was, off just a "measely" 100w RMS to the pair of them (50w each). The enclosure is what makes the sound with subwoofers most of the time. Watch the left corner WALL of the room.....that's his sub box.

Unneeded bump. We're definitely lacking in the amateur reviews section guys! C'mon, review your garbage you're buying! I see you guys posting in the "What did I buy today" thread. Review it!

The Logitech system is "boomy" because its tuned higher than the Klipsch subs are. I've stated the solution already, get better front speakers to replace the Logitech 2.5" or 3" speakers you're using now, so you can use a slightly lower crossover frequency on the 12" subs. You're missing probably 60Hz-200Hz or so as is, even WITH your crossovers on the subs set to a really high point. A 12" speaker just doesn't do higher frequencies as well as a smaller speaker does (usually). A good pair of bookshelf speakers or a pair of those same center speakers you have would extend down to 50-60Hz no problem and fill in that mid bass section that the Logitech "sub" does on its own. You probably wouldn't even NEED the 12" subs at that point to compare to the Logitech z623 setup. But of course, dual 12" Reference Klipsch subs rattling your bones down to 30Hz and below, why wouldn't you? You also said you bought the z623's for another setup anyway, so I'm not going to yell and scream too much about it. But yeah, getting rid of the Logitech speakers in favor of some better front Left / Right speakers WILL give you that mid bass "thump" that you're after with the Logitech's sub.

Gorgeous shots man! I don't smoke anymore, but the offer to hang is still valid.

I'll just leave this here: Logitech z623 Review NOAUDIOPHILE.COM They're noise makers. That's about it. If you're only about making loud noises with them, they'll do fine. PC Gaming, they'll do "fine". But hey, I'm all for experimenting. Give them a listen! If you don't like them, Amazon should take them back no problem. Honestly, these would've been a MUCH better buy, as you could easily add in a powered sub to the setup later (possibly with very easy to do slight mods, or can just use an RCA splitter). Monoprice has an okay enough 8" for like $60 $90 (price went up apparently). Assuming the Edifiers alone didn't pack enough of a punch. Amazon.com WWW.AMAZON.COM

Hey, I'm only about ~300 points behind you at what was it 4.7 all core? 4.65? Either way, seems like mine is NOT performing that badly afterall at least! Glad you got a better run than I did. That just means we're doing something right....moar free internet points! Exactly. I've been having a BLAST doing these runs. As I said earlier, "technically" my first time actually competitively benching (for hwbot). Keeping it fun and not an ACTUAL competition where feelings can get hurt is what its all about. We score whatever we score, and we had fun doing it.

We only have a good chance because we're all helping out. Teamwork was important in this competition, and we definitely seem to have that down pretty well here. Sorry to hear about all the things you're going through mate. Things will get better. Sounds like you've got most of the important expensive bits handled so far. Not going to lie, I was kind of hoping to see you run some of your gear, but at the same time was dreading it too because it'd knock us down. But it'd just make me want to try to improve my own subs too anyway, so whatever. I'm definitely limited by my cooling capacities, so it is what it is. Nothing wrong with keeping some of your "secrets" to yourself, you're here, and you're helping us out where you can. You still hold several #1 spots, so your advice is definitely appreciated. Take care of the things you need to first. HWbot will always be there, but sounds like you need to focus your attention elsewhere. Definitely keep yourself in good health, so go handle your doctor related stuff. If you do happen to get some runs in, it'll be an honor to compete against you. If you don't, there's always the next competition for you to kick my butt in. I figure since you helped with my old boards, its only fitting......I'm going to TRY to bust out that A8N32 again to see if its capable. I know I've got a good clocking x2 for it, I just need to figure out what the problem was last time I had it out. I can't for the life of me remember why I didn't want to use it. *shrugs Short of one, ONE CPUz submission years and years ago, and one DICE run using somebody else's name on hwbot (may he R.I.P.), this is my first REAL run with hwbot too. The DICE run, he was using my equipment for the run because he didn't have Skt 939 equipment, and I wasn't doing any competing for hwbot at the time. So brought it over and we had some fun with it. Good times. Yeah I gave up on my 5800x. I can't for the life of me figure out the RAM stuff on it. I'm scoring less in Cinebench right now than a 3800x does.

CPU-NB clocks, get those up higher. 2.8-3.0GHz should be easy at 1.45v CPU-NB. You're under water, maybe you can get by with more. The more the better, but I'd expect around 3GHz. CPU-NB was the key for Phenom II back in the day, it was almost as important as CPU clocks IIRC. I mean it was for daily use / gaming rigs, I'd assume it'd be the same on benching. I know what you're about to do....... Well, not really. You're going to show me up on my old school knowledge, I know that much. A little friendly competition isn't gonna hurt anything. I wish you nothing but luck, and its awesome that you've been chiming in and helping us anyway.

That's right, "1440p" would be basically 2/3 right on the nose, so yeah 0.6 is just a hair under. 1080p being 1/2. Silly numbers. Honestly with modern dynamic resolution scaling options, its really not even all that bad going with a lower resolution if you absolutely have to.

So its basically a render size difference of what, 1920x1080 on top vs approximately 2560x1440 on the bottom screen then right? Yeah, that's about the right amount of a jump. I've been having a "fun" time tinkering with resolution scaling too since I'm back on an RX 580 for a little while myself.

I thought gore pics were outlawed!

If you want to properly restore that card that you glued the fan back together on.....you CAN buy replacement fans for it. gtx+460+75mm+fans: Search Result | eBay WWW.EBAY.COM Buy and sell electronics, cars, fashion apparel, collectibles, sporting goods, digital cameras, baby items, coupons, and everything else on... Just a generic search, but the Hawk Twin Frozr is just a 75mm fan, same as all of the ones listed in that search. Depending on if yours are wired together or separately would determine which one to buy since you can buy a single fan or the pair. Most are going to be coming from China though, so it'll be a few weeks wait. If you wanted to restore it properly of course.

Are you going to sit on the desk or your subwoofer? It'd be kind of redundant to put them on an existing giant vibrating box...... You're supposed to put them somewhere where you will FEEL them. The project you're talking about is more suitable with full range amplifiers and using foam sheets hanging off the ceiling to replace speakers with a transducer-ed sheet. Not subwoofer frequencies. By all means play around with it, I do encourage that. But what you bought was a sub amp for it, and the intent (I thought) was for lower range frequencies. Unless you're going to be sitting on your desk or your sub cabinet, I'd say attach it to your chair. Those little transducers are not suitable to make AUDIBLE sub bass frequencies, but they "can" be used to make full range noise.

Its supposed to be mounted to your seat, whether it be a chair or a couch. They're also useful in cars too.

UPDATE: Found some new vehicles and figured we should put those into the server too.

I just caught that list, wow....... A smart toothbrush, floss, an easy bake oven for adults (isn't that called a regular oven?), and a smart condom and wine bottle? Seriously, people need to put the screens down more and go outside. If you need to order yourself a new bottle of wine without putting down the one in your hand, I think its time to admit there's a problem........ I don't blame you on the dog cam, seems creepy too. I don't like the fact that I have smart phones in the house myself even, but I can't deny their usefulness either though sadly.

What ended up being the issue?

Want me to run my ASRock 990FX Extreme 3? I can....... I don't have a 960T though, and I definitely tapped out my 965BE, so kinda pointless anyway. We've got to work on your Socket 754 run too. I'll bug you on discord about it, but I'm sure we can get you to squeeze out a little more MHz out of it. It's a K8, so in theory it should tap out around 2.5GHz-3GHz+ depending on the chip. It should do really well with RAM too assuming the IMC's not damaged already. NF motherboard so you've got a good board to start with at least. Could be worse, you could be like @PCSarge who swore up and down he could beat @Bastiaan_NL with his 5700XT, and then never ran it again. C'mon PCSarge, this isn't StockclockedHardware.net! Yeah yeah yeah, shots fired..... I'd like to see us break into 4th place though. We were knocked back down to 6th though right now.
