LabRat

I find it a bit 'disturbing' seeing a(nother) former LucasArts' namesake attached. Outlaws (1997 video game) - Wikipedia EN.WIKIPEDIA.ORG NtM, this has all the hallmarks of "Modern Audience, Western Developer" https://www.neogaf.com/threads/star-wars-outlaws-main-character-already-hit-with-criticism-due-to-ubisoft-changing-actress-apperance.1669385/ Hot dang! Girlboss Protagonist is just plain nasty lookin'. I feel bad for the model; she's pretty. Even, Horizon's Girlboss player character looks more 'put together'

Thing is, the GRE is faster, generally (in rasterization) and does RT 'fine' w/ XeSS or FSR Scaling (or lower Native-res. 1080p 144hz, here)

"Revised" uArch in the APUs, makes sense. I do wonder if we'll see a Navi 3x dGPU revision, though. (Ala RX 590) ROCm 5.6 has listings for RX 7950XT/X, etc. So, maybe it is in the cards? AMD Lists Radeon RX 7950 XTX, Other Unreleased Graphics Cards | Tom's Hardware WWW.TOMSHARDWARE.COM AMD's ROCm 5.6 lists numerous unannounced Radeon RX 7000-series graphics cards.

mmmhmmmm.... No errors on the 7900GRE this whole time, either. Only the MI25s and the R5 5600 'spat out' bad WUs at any point. (and that'd been corrected yesterday) At this point, I'm assuming my Name and CodeKey is 'cursed' (low-reliability listed?) Next comp, I'll be switching to my other 'handle' of LRK-GT, and use a diff. email for a fresh codekey.

Dunno how I did that)

Funny they mention specifically using less VRAM; nVidia's been skimping us for awhile. Leaves me wondering if even Devs/Studios have been wanting more VRAM/memory efficiency, too. 'Love the concept. AMD's SSG was attempting similar, years ago (no DXR, ofc) At the least, I'm looking forward to more broad use of DirectStorage.

A donated MI25 w/ bad HBM made a bunch of bad WUs. My fault for not 'generically' folding. 1st thing I did was enter my codekey, name, and team. Ended up submitting at least 4-6 bad WUs. Oops. -What I deserve for not thinking ahead lol.

Working on bringing 3x MI25s online in my 'Media Reclaimer' build. I'd take pics, but it's a bit too LabRat even for LabRat there are former mining risers and PSUs involved, with an open side panel, and 2x MI25s sitting on top... Edit: Finally, they're operational. ~100W ea. + the R5 5600 in that machine.

Fixed. Yes, it was the driver. Apparently AMD 1st Party Adrenaline doesn't equip-enable OpenCL. Ended up using this driver package (after clean uninstall w/ DDU) https://www.amd.com/en/developer/resources/rocm-hub/eula/licenses.html?filename=AMD-Software-PRO-Edition-23.Q4-Win10-Win11-For-HIP.exe

Correct. Though, now I'm getting a 'loop' of ready->dowload0->ready->download I've got errands away from home to go run. If it hasn't sorted itself by the time I'm back, I'll fix it then. 23:34:41:WU02:FS01:0x23:Attempting to create OpenCL context: 23:34:41:WU02:FS01:0x23: Configuring platform OpenCL 23:34:41:WU02:FS01:0x23:Failed to create OpenCL context: 23:34:41:WU02:FS01:0x23:No compatible OpenCL platform is available 23:34:41:WU02:FS01:0x23:ERROR:125: Failed to create a GPU-enabled OpenMM Context. Guessing the Adrenaline driver is unhappy/missing ROCm. Will fix on return.

Anything look amiss? (No CPU folding, it *cooks* my 5800x3d lol)

Countdown pulled up on secondary screen :D Haven't been feeling well but, will be contributing AT LEAST my 7900GRE (power detuned). Will have an MI25 or 2 going by end of day too (hopefully).

I'm only on Win11 because of my last GPU setup. 11 was the only reliable way to get AFMF from a 6500XT w/ rendering from a Vega. I know I have a 'dirty install' @ this point and had intended to do a clean single-OS reinstall after my old new case comes in. If you need Windows-compatibility, I highly-recommend Win10 Ent IoT LTSC. -It's what I'll be going back to, now that I'm on a single-card (again). https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/a-multi-boot-adventure-windows-10-x64-enterprise-iot-ltsc-21h2.314847/ Mainstream support until January 12, 2027 and extended support until January 13, 2032.

Just got done spending over 4 hours troubleshooting GPU, Power, fTPM, NVME HMB, etc. I was having major stuttering in games like Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, and HBS'BattleTech. 'thought it was a bad PCI-E 8-pin power cable (again) but, no. So, After a bunch of (mostly pointless) troubleshooting, I uninstalled the Update that installed earlier today. Suddenly 'all better'.
