How do you install the IO shield? Please post a video for that.

I have only a Noctua U9S with dual Silent Wings fans on it in my HTPC build. Does great in the temps and is near silent.

Thank you, exactly what I was looking for! I wanted to tweak my 6000 CL30 for games but looks like it doesn't do much tweaking this more than EXPO

Good video

Amazing Work man 🤘🏻🤘🏻🎉 Maybe you can test Avatar @ Unobtanium Graphic Setting (Digital Foundry explained it). There are additional Quality settings that can be unlocked. Fantastic comparison, i tell my mates all the time they need no 300 buck+ cpu for Max gaming4k xD😅

@8:49 i wonder why on Linux there are only 5 Levels for "Specular Reflections", ☀️🤏🏻☹️ on Win11 are 7 Levels according to Digital Foundry. Seems no Raytracing on Linux. So Playing on Linux should mean pay max 700 Bucks for gpu because all games that need faster card will run drastically slower on Linux.

thx

how about RT off ? i dont use it anyway, althou i have RTX

So i'm debating whether on getting phantom spirit thermalright or arctic freezer 3 360mm. My build R7 7800x3d & 4070ti super (H9 case). I was initially going for Lian Li Galahad with the LCD screen but thought why not cut a little bit of the budget. Thoughts?

Have you tried Endeavour os? Mybe it will be faster than nobara.

Your data is useless without either SPL measurement or noise recording. Also, I highly suggest you get open bench like Streacom BC1 V2, closed cases have very large and unpredictable effect on cooler performance.

Ich habe einen R5 7600 und bin am überlegen ein Upgrade auf den R7 7800x3d zu machen ... nach diesem Test hier macht das allerdings wenig Sinn ... werde wohl meinen 7600 behalten 😊 ... Danke für den Test 👍🏻

Bro keep this up most of peoples dont even,know you could play games on Linux we need benchmark on Linux

I'm going to buy an amd ryzen 7 7800x3d and i was going to go with 6400mhz cl32 because for its price and what it provides for 2x16gb 32gb it is a solid ddr5 ramkit for the prices you can get them at (although not the most budget concious, just practical preformane gain) but I heard it had instability past 6000mhz with people saying it works and it doesn't work dependent on so much different variables that are in and out of your control, would it even be worth it to go through that grief to even attempt it if I could with this mobo and ram G.SKILL Flare X5 Series DDR5 RAM 32GB (2x16GB) 6400Mhz CL32, ASUS B650-E TUF? Because if not then I'll just save myself the time and buy cl30 6000mhz because i can afford it and that cl is still the sweet spot so it wouldn't be a waste of money anyways.

Appreciate the video man. Great stuff and we'll presented Just picked up a 7600x and a 4080 so let's so how that combo goes

Why is the linux stutters so much? I don't care if i have like 10+ FPS if i gonna vomit from the constant stuttering.

Thank you very much for this video. I have plenty of Arctic coolers (p12 ARGB and P14 both regular and ARGB) And I was considering getting the Ps120 for a 9800x3d build (currently I have a 5900 with a custom 360mm radiator cooling it). I knew temperature improvements wouldn't be that much better but I was hoping for at least a 3c. Thanks for the test regardless, a shame you couldn't add a noise comparison. Higher end smartphones have pretty accurate decibel estimations, and even recording the tonal profile of the coolers would have given an idea of which is less annoying to have around. Thanks regardless.

seems nvidia has a much bigger performance hit compared to windows, while amd seems to be on par or higher than windows from what i've seen. another reason for me to switch to amd

air is safer cuz it’s easier to build and there’s no fragile pump

I own both a ps5 & a pc with the same gpu/cpu combo. Honestly I just play between both whichever has the game I want. Such as I get to play Enshrouded on pc with everyone ahead before console. Or if I want to use a controller and kick back on the couch & use the TV instead of sitting to stare at my monitor. I don't always wanna sit on for the desktop experience, sometimes I wanna be lazy and be on my couch. It's all preferences and whether I want to wait or not for different feel. Games like FF14 is terrible on ps5 vs the pc it's so much smoother and better using an mmo mouse also. My wife and I like switching between console also, such as the Switch has fun coop games when we ran out of coop games on the other platform. Both has pros and cons I will never understand these fanboys over one platform....

Compare Linux vs Windows 10. Differences will be even bigger by 5 to 15 fps.

Thanks man i will buy a 7600!

Hi. Are you able to control fan curve on Linux? You have good card. I am sure that fan curve is not controllable on Linux. Yet, your temperatures between two platforms are identical.

Awesome rewiev i was wandering would it still be almost the same with the back intake setup (so the one fan is on the rear) but still running the front to back airflow

Awesome review! exactly what i needded.. seems like the cooler is made fot that fans.. also seems like more airflow has better impact than stattic preassure in the custom fan.

This is more for anyone reading the comments. For optimal mouse performance (it can't realistically get better) 1k + 3200dpi or higher usually saturates it. Using low dpi is always a mistake no exceptions, just use a lower sensitivity. If you are worried about relearning your sens, you can use a sensitivity calculator to convert your current settings to your new ones. The responsiveness will be as good as your mouse is capable of and the rest is up to your skill issue.

I still use 1k even for competitive games

Great vid just what i was looking for, i have a matx case and was thinking about 240 aio or nh-d15 G2, but will get LF 3 240 instead

What polling rate do you use?

The first game, shows higher AVG FPS on Linux but there's some pretty huge pacing issues on Linux and stutters that the Windows version doesn't show.

Good video

I really am pissed with my rig ( 7800X3D) my room temps are from 27c to 29c and my pc idles at 55c/61c and when in big intense games like Once Human and Still wakes the deep I go up to 80s and as soon as it starts hitting 86c to 87c my pc will crash back to windows. I am thinking of going to AIO Cooling. I am currently using Phantom Sprite air cooler

You should be using lower resolutions and in game settings so you max out the usage on the cpu and not the gpu. You need to be cpu bound to truly see the difference in cooling between air and liquid in gaming.

its nobara 40 official , kde or gnome version ??? i want to try

Great video. One more subscriber

For anyone confused, the greatest difference between CPUs will be seen at 1080p. I'm not sure why that resolution wasn't tested, but I'm sure you can easily find a comparison video if you need one.

7900XTX is better in raster performance and runs close to 4080 in Ray Tracing. Overall I think 7900XTX is the winner here.

Why a lot of people say the gpu has dat temperature, this so good for 2fans

Are you using Wayland or X11 here? I've found more comparable performance with X11; for reference I5-3570K - GTX1060 6GB - 8GB RAM. It's still less than Windows performance, but it gets closer and significantly more playable. Might be a worthwhile future test with your setup.

I have a pair of 64GB Corsair Dominator Platinum RAM, CL 32, 40, 40... running with a 7800X3D and a 4080S, what is the best option for speed and latencies?

Hi, I had a question regarding the snap/tap feature. Since I move in CS2 using the arrow keys, my left and right arrow keys correspond to A and D, respectively. Is it possible to assign the snap/tap feature to my left and right arrow keys, or is it only available for A and D? Thanks for the video btw.

Even DirectX 12 works better on Linux than on Windows.

My GMMK2 hast the option to load custom firmwares.. I uploaded one wich lets me activate snap tap too

Thank you for taking the time to do this comparison! It's amazing how far Linux has come!

The power limit is the same as in Windows. Linux shows the TGP (total graphics power), which is just the power of the GPU core. Windows shows the TBP (total board power), which shows all the power of the GPU, including the memory (the memory at max clocks can use 70W). You can see this in HWINFO64 in Windows as it shows both values. This is the most misunderstood thing there is. The power consumption is the same, and you can also test this at the wall, which I have. Linux needs to show TBP and stop this confusion. Thanks for the video!

Idea for a future video. 7900xtx performance for generative AI (windows vs linux comparison)

i hope windows comes to an end and we progress with more choices for gaming OS

This is even better than what I was expecting to be honest. The results are much closer and its most trading blow even in Avatar which uses ray-tracing by default. This unfortunately also proves how much Nvidia is holding linux back. Hopefully NVK will fix this.

Thats why most linux users have AMD graphics cards
