Saying Hello, and 2 years update after my PC Build Journey
(lemmy.tevtra.com)
Two years ago I made a post on Reddit's pcmasterrace (under same username) that somehow made it to /all and trended for a while.
Fast-forward to today, and I’ve found myself slowly distancing from Reddit with all the drama, weird decisions, and the feeling that any post you make can get nuked on a whim by a power-tripping mod (see: r/art).
So I wanted to anchor this moment with big chungus here on the fediverse as I start a new chapter on Lemmy. Looking forward to hanging out with everyone here and having fun again.
By the way big chungus is alive and well, the same can't be said for the 4090 though, i'm getting coil whine from it and had to live with that until 60 series...
it's not affecting me that much when i'm fully immersed in VR due to wearing headphones, but when i'm using it with local LLM for chats the noise can be unbearable. Not sure how undervolting can affect that particular use case yet so i've never done it.
Do you get coil whine on idle? Or only under load? Maybe just a frame rate limit might reduce your coil whine
Totally no whine on idle, only under load. Like i said in other reply, on stable frame rate it can almost be like white noise due to constant noise, but when running LLM it makes a very distinctive rhythmic noise, and the noise pattern is different with every model and its VERY annoying.
Yeah maybe frame rate limit, power limit, under volt, under clock... Those kinds of things might help
