DFX4509B | Like, how I can swap out hardware at will on my desktop, that isn't necessarily feasible on embedded hardware in industry. | 06:51:21 |

DFX4509B | (a lot of modern arcade machines are pretty much just custom gaming PCs purpose-built for that particular game nowadays is what I'm trying at) | 06:56:22 |

nagameme | You can disable Bitlocker(last time I tried W11) but it being on by default and can’t be turned off during install is stupid | 07:40:08 |
Element Home Premium ☭ [He/Him] | nah any security feature that doesnt affect normal use should be enabled by default | 08:46:25 |
Eatham | In reply to @bennyhill:genzedong.xyz nah any security feature that doesnt affect normal use should be enabled by default It should be possible to disable it during install, but otherwise yeah bitlocker is fine | 08:57:52 |

Wouldn't any of the x950 CPUs, X3D or not, be kinda overkill for gaming though unless games start requiring 16c/32t CPUs? | 09:00:32 |
DFX4509B | I'd think the x950 chips would be more appropriate for entry-level virtualization or anything else that would actually use 16c/32t. | 09:01:12 |
DFX4509B | That many cores is like entry-level HEDT at this point. | 09:01:45 |
Element Home Premium ☭ [He/Him] | the x3d chips above the 800 series are weird | 09:02:28 |
Element Home Premium ☭ [He/Him] | they are worse for gaming, worse for productivity | 09:02:37 |
DFX4509B | I'd think there were at least some higher-end productivity tasks that could actually use the 3D Vcache though, or else it wouldn't have debuted on Epyc before hitting the Ryzen line IIRC. | 09:03:25 |
Element Home Premium ☭ [He/Him] | at least in the benchmarks GN uses the x3d version are always worse for productivity | 09:04:56 |
Element Home Premium ☭ [He/Him] | because the x3d CPUs have slower core clocks | 09:05:09 |
DFX4509B | So that's why tech that debuted on servers is a disadvantage for productivity. | 09:05:39 |
DFX4509B | Let's hope MS don't start copying Nintendo and taking down third-party PC emulators for ARM like Box86 and Box64 or FEX. https://old.reddit.com/r/hardware/comments/1gm07ip/microsofts_new_emulator_could_bring_more_games_to/ | 09:09:22 |
Element Home Premium ☭ [He/Him] | i think on the multi chiplet x3d CPUs the interconnect was the bottleneck | 09:09:39 |
Element Home Premium ☭ [He/Him] | MS doesnt own X86 anyways | 09:10:38 |
Element Home Premium ☭ [He/Him] | nothing they can do about it | 09:10:42 |
DFX4509B | And they would set off a powderkeg if they tried locking down DX and other parts of Windows to where they can't be translated in DXVK or WINE. | 09:12:05 |
DFX4509B | A powderkeg I don't think they can afford to set off. | 09:12:39 |
