    Over 10 years ago Intel's Skulltrail was almost unstoppable in the consumer space with its dual CPU socket availability and even able to support SLI, but now not so much! Can we breathe some new life in it with some upgrades and overclocking?

    "CPU does not have popcnt" - for those interested, popcnt usually is a hardware intrinsic function, that calculates the number of set bits in a number. Often used for heavy micro optimizations. And usually supported by any cpu, except maybe refered to by a different name. So, two options: Programmers under enough stress to forget fallback options, or a really bad instruction set on the cpu.

    • @angolin9352
      @angolin9352 Před 3 lety +9

      Programmers don't bother telling their compiler what specific assembly instructions to use or not use unless it's already become an issue. The performance improvement usually isn't worth the tradeoff of messing with assembly, instruction set fallbacks, and feature flags, and if you do need the performance then it's usually easier and more impactful to audit your code.

      @@Jambu5ter1 A bit but not that much.
      DirectX9-11 and Open GL in general are not "thread safe" APIs, basically one thread is declared the "sacred thread allowed to talk to the GPU", and well, it is the only CPU that can send draw calls etc, while all the other CPUs can do is to pre-process stuff to make the life of the sacred CPU easier.
      Now on vulkan, everyone can talk to vulkan, everyone can issue draw calls.
      So the D9VK can in theory give the DirectX9 the ability of being thread safe, but no game will use it because as far they know, you can't do it.

    Great to see 32GB of RAM working on this platform! Bit sad about the lack of time for proper overclocking though. For benchmarking in Cinebench R15 I've had my QX9775s at 4.2GHz with about 1.425V, so there was definitely more performance left to be had here. Enabling 'enhanced power slope' would have helped as well. In any case, it's good that newer APIs can now start to favour multithreading rather than singlethreading which really helps when dealing with an architecture of this era. From my personal testing I've seen performance gains up to 50% in Crysis 3 when going from single Core 2 Quad to 2x Core 2 Quad which is substantial.

    I believe you need to cap the framerate below the max refresh rate for g-sync to work.
    So for this monitor you need to cap it at ~238hz with RTSS for example.
    IIRC when the framerate exceeds the max refresh rate of the monitor - gsync stops/gets disabled and tearing comes back into play.
    Just sayin as Linus played CS with more than 240 fps. Cheers!

    Through bios, crank up the northbridge power(this should be 1 to 4 steps into red), cpu power, and lower the ram power(yes, lowering the ram power slightly seemed to work for me). Least that is my experience with this series of intel boards (if I remember the model right, x46). Everything else needs a minor/moderate boost to power to keep up with the overclocking. Also, at the time ATI cards worked much better in xfire than SLI worked on this series. Not sure if that was the card or the motherboard, and that may not translate using modern cards.

    I only want 1080p 60fps and it is a power house while doing that. I never would have thought a 15 year old computer would be running halo infinite and actually run smoothly. I was in shock lol
