From the Babylon Bee
COLUMBUS, OH Researchers at The Ohio State University have concluded a decades-long study that confirms once and for all that it really is all Steve's fault.
Whether the nuisance be bad weather, a flat tire, or a severe case of acid indigestion, in the end it all comes back to Steve.
The science is clear: it's all Steve's fault, announced lead researcher Dr. Kevin Marrone. Eventually, every one of your problems can be traced to something Steve did. He really is the worst. Steve.
Scientists who conducted the project were shocked by the results, as they kept believing they would find something that wasn't Steve's fault. I just kept thinking surely there was something out there Steve wasn't responsible for, said Dr. Emily Rataski. A famine in Africa, a typhoon, something. But it turns out, Steve really is to blame. Ugh, that guy.

Thanks Steve!
I've been confused as to why there are multiple repeated cpu overclock/memory overclock settings in different areas, and if there were any rhyme or reason.
I agree, while 2 settings are confusing, 3 repeated settings in different bios areas would cause mind meltdowns here.
MSI x670e 9950x Tforce 6000 MTs: I think it took MSI 4 or 5 bios updates(November) to get the mem overclocking
stable to where i felt comfortable making memory changes.
While you quickly realize either setting makes the changes you want it still made no sense as to why it was set up that way.

Intel is scaling way better with RAM tuning, like you can get up to 33% perfomance just going from 6000 to 8600 RAM, but AMD Nexus will not get enough views from such a video. He would rather test Intel with the same 6000CL30 kit as AMD because there is not much difference, right Wrong. Also he knows how to fix degradation on your Intel CPU but will never tell you that. Its better if YOU will lose your money instead of him. Consumer Advocacy, what a cringe.
I think he got offended on Intel because one day they said something wrong to him and hurted his ego lol

I miss how AMD use to engage with the community online, they would have videos going deep into the new CPUs and Motherboards, letting us know exactly what to do and what not to do, best overclocking settings and general tweaks, safe voltages and temperatures... Now all we have is a bunch of people online in forums like reddit, arguing back and forth about what's / who's right vs what's / who's wrong. Just one big stick measuring competition and most of the time no one actually knows what they are talking about they just want to appear as though they do!

Happy to see AMD trolling Nvidia in actually good ways - i.e. doing the good things Nvidia has done previously, but is now using as a cudgel to enforce adherence to their desires. Still, I hope there's follow-through here - not just cool engineering deep dives, but competitive products at great prices, GPUs targeting Nvidia's weak points, and more. Yes, the AI bubble is profitable, but the gaming market is huge, and much more likely to be stable long term. And we want to buy new, cool hardware, if anyone is willing to make it and sell it to us.

My Asus laptop with Intel graphics is stuck in an infinite loop where the Intel app updates drivers, then windows 11 reverts itself back. Oh, and it auto installs 7 non existant components to my computer for telemetry in device manager causing immense CPU usage....I don't think I'll EVER but another Intel product again if I don't have to. Everything has been FLAWLESS on my gaming pc (8940hx/5070ti) by comparison.

Quick search indicates that MITT is Multiple Interface Test Tool a test tool for validating hardware and software for simple peripheral buses, such as UART, I2C, SPI, and GPIO. MITT uses the FPGA development board and includes a software package with firmware, test binaries, and drivers that provide an inexpensive test solution. which Microsoft provide (or used to provide)

I want to design a AMD MAINBAORD!!! GIVE ME THE STUFFI NEED PLEASE BILL Alverson .... WITH BIG NAVI (N21/N31) (OR N48) 16GB or 20GB (7900XT) ON TEH BOARD WITH A SINGLE ( OR DUAL ) LARGE VAPOR CHAMBOR HEATSINK , GPU IN x8 mode X4 X4 (for 2x extra m.2 NVME SSD) teh main 2x m.2 NVME from teh I/O PCI-E not from teh 16x GFCX lanes... Bifurcated x8 x4x4 (= x16)

Guy from Reddit regarding MITT/WITT
MITT - Motherboard Internal Temperature Trip uses the motherboard's own thermal sensor (typically near chipset or VRMs).
WITT - Wireless Internal Temperature Trip uses a CPU-proximal sensor or possibly the SMBus-based internal sensor (rarely used unless system has wireless modules, which this board does not).

Exactly. That string would never be found in a JEDEC compliant SPD, possibly outside of a model name. Since EXPO is TM for this technology, it wont be used as a model name most likely. If a user writable block is present, it would be after the location of the EXPO profile. Take care

I was super impressed with how well the 9800X3D undervolts from the default settings while maintaining a decent overclock, as well as the seamless ram OCing. From completion of assembly to overclocked and running was so much faster than other builds in the past!

24:45 love the home made north bridge cooler on a system that does not have a north bride. No idea what it is cooling. But i use a north bridge heat sink and one of the small fans powered by USB to cool my TrackIR 5. Damn think gets like 90 c without it

Wow, only 3:00 in, and his MoBo triggered a trip down memory lane, reminding me of my good old Asus P55 T2P4 rev 3.10 ! I know, not the same purpose, but it's been a very very very long time since I saw a MoBo with this much connectors / jumpers pins !

a temperature difference of roughly 300 degrees and if i understand that correctly it was running the whole time in a full blast configuration. That is some space approval shit. Chips that can withstand the harshness of space are the future ;o))

5:48 MITT/WITT The MITT/WITT Selection option in the BIOS of ASRock motherboards, such as the ASROCK X470D4U, allows users to configure settings related to the MITT (Microsoft In-Target Tester) and WITT (Windows In-Target Tester) hardware testing tools.

They are sitting there talking about BIOS reprogramming and I'm sitting here owing an older ROG Gaming Notebook with an socketed R7 1700... They never offered an Bios Update to switch out the CPU against something newer....

LOVE talking to engineers, they are always the most interesting pleasant people. If only we could get rid of all the departments that insist on existing between engineers and customers with the products they created.

When you turned on that U-DIMM programmer, the beep it made gave me a moment of panic, since me hearing sounds like that usually means something is having an error.
my eyes went wide for a second instinctively

How do you manage to get AMD engineers on interviews with you Or any of the people respnsible for product development It so cool that you get to talk to them first hand and learn stuff people could wish for.
