I think what I would do in your position is: 1. check the rating of your PSU just in case 2. upgrade

I think what I would do in your position is:

check the rating of your PSU just in case
upgrade the GPU and storage
upgrade the PSU and/or case if necessary
wait and save money
upgrade to AM5 motherboard, X3D CPU, DDR5 RAM, and a better CPU cooler

CChaiQi A second PC will cost a lot more than upgrading one, but it's entirely up to you...

Al-Mumin•1/22/24, 4:09 PM

hard to decide cuz current pc it needs lot things to replace for upgrade but pricey

ChaiQiOP•1/22/24, 4:09 PM

Yeah

look that am5 new hardware they can cost me above 1k so its not good idea

seems 7600 seems better but less vram not good enough for intensive games like assetto corsa as example

ChaiQiOP•1/22/24, 4:12 PM

7600XT would be the ticket, then. $330, 16GB VRAM

Kyle Gospo•1/22/24, 4:13 PM

7600 isn't better

Kyle Gospo•1/22/24, 4:13 PM

it's 30%+ slower in every benchmark

Kyle Gospo•1/22/24, 4:13 PM

6800 is a lot of card

Kyle Gospo•1/22/24, 4:14 PM

you're comparing the high end of the last generation to the low end of the current

KKyle Gospo 6800 is a lot of card

Al-Mumin•1/22/24, 4:14 PM

im aware

CChaiQi This is roughly what I want to build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/sbJt4M

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:17 PM

if i were you, i would change ram and cooler https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BKyNWt

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:18 PM

anything over 6000 ram is unstable on am5

ChaiQiOP•1/22/24, 4:18 PM

Cooler makes sense
The case I picked was because my desk has unfortunate size limits
Good to know, about the RAM

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:19 PM

a 360mm cooler is overkill for a 7800x3d, it wont pull more than 140w

ChaiQiOP•1/22/24, 4:20 PM

I want it to run cool and quiet, and ideally be upgradable

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:21 PM

air coolers are quiet af these days, with a pump you are adding extra noise tbh

ChaiQiOP•1/22/24, 4:21 PM

Point

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:21 PM

if you want some tests, i can give you a video

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:22 PM

and i am going to change my aio to an air cooler soon too

ChaiQiOP•1/22/24, 4:22 PM

Nah, it's alright, saving $70 makes sense

AAlex&Indie air coolers are quiet af these days, with a pump you are adding extra noise tbh

Al-Mumin•1/22/24, 4:22 PM

6600 xt is better than 2070 in long term so it can last me decades and able to play bazzite-deck just fine.

CChaiQi Nah, it's alright, saving $70 makes sense

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:23 PM

just in case

ChaiQiOP•1/22/24, 4:24 PM

85C seems relatively high for a desktop

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:24 PM

top ones are 82 and 83, at full load, with their stock fans at 38db

ChaiQiOP•1/22/24, 4:25 PM

Also a 7700X with the fans barely spinning lol

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:25 PM

swap the fans with some T30 and you can get mid 70s

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:25 PM

or even lower

Al-Mumin•1/22/24, 4:26 PM

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:26 PM

for example, the frost spirit 140v3 can fit three T30s and you can get mid 60s with that setup

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:27 PM

at full load, with fans normalized at 36db

AAl-Mumin ?

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:28 PM

yes, but the 7600xt is even better and will last longer since it has 16gb of vram and can deal with recent vram demanding games

AAlex&Indie yes, but the 7600xt is even better and will last longer since it has 16gb of vra...

Al-Mumin•1/22/24, 4:29 PM

i will wait until comes out and hopefully amd will make drivers for them with no issues cuz im not dealing artifacts and some dumb things yk

AAlex&Indie for example, the frost spirit 140v3 can fit three T30s and you can get mid 60s w...

ChaiQiOP•1/22/24, 4:30 PM

Are you saying buy separate fans and replace the ones in the air cooler?

Al-Mumin•1/22/24, 4:30 PM

i already had enough with my gpu artifacts due to driver bugs or system corruption who knows lol.

CChaiQi Are you saying buy separate fans and replace the ones in the air cooler?

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:31 PM

if you are fine with the stock ones, you can skip that part, but if you want to go nuts and making a quiet af build, yeah you could swap the fans

ChaiQiOP•1/22/24, 4:31 PM

Ah, hmmm

Alex&Indie•1/22/24, 4:31 PM

let me dm you something

Al-Mumin•1/22/24, 5:45 PM

Al-Mumin•1/22/24, 5:47 PM

here image for the details of error

Ripplingsnake•1/22/24, 6:24 PM

For my testing is it possible to disable pstates and use acpi ?

Ripplingsnake•1/22/24, 6:24 PM

Trying a few benchmarks

AAl-Mumin here image for the details of error

Kyle Gospo•1/22/24, 6:24 PM

rpm-ostree update

rpm-ostree update

once

Ripplingsnake•1/22/24, 6:24 PM

Or is pstates hard coded

RRipplingsnake For my testing is it possible to disable pstates and use acpi ?

Kyle Gospo•1/22/24, 6:25 PM

nothing is limited here, should be the same as any other distro

Kyle Gospo•1/22/24, 6:25 PM

rpm-ostree kargs --help

rpm-ostree kargs --help

Kyle Gospo•1/22/24, 6:25 PM

if you need to set any
