  • Unfortunately these chips had voltage issues on launch. Whenever I do a new build I manually tweak my CPU in the bios while also testing my configuration using stress / torture tests on prime95 (mprime). They have since released bios updates that address the voltage issue. My understanding is the chips do not “degrade” over time, but instead could experience “damage” when used on a unpatched bios. More so when using the advanced overclock settings.

    that could be your problem and there’s nothing you can really do about it since the CPU itself is flawed.

    I don’t think so. This is a Linux bug. This bug doesn’t exist when booting into Windows.




  • Hi there. i9-14900K

    On my setup, game launches automatically trigger the CPU Scheduler/Governor/Energy Profiles to Performance.

    So went ahead and switched the CPU Scheduler, Governor and Energy profiles to defaults and powersave. Then put them all back to performance. Game is more than playable, its just not the same buttery smooth it was before the sleep.

    Thanks for the suggestion.

    Edit: dmesg

    I have scanned my logs like I mentioned above, which includes dmesg and nothing stands out during wake or sleep.



  • Great to hear. Because this was certainly not the case just a couple years ago.

    Edit:

    Would someone like to speak up instead of downvoting everything I say?

    I’ve managed my own digital collection since the late 90s. I recently cleaned up a few divx files over 20 years old. Really don’t need a lesson on how that works. I have a family and sometimes you need to use what you need to use. That’s how it goes.

    A few people around me who followed the android scene more than me were also constantly running into issues at the worst times. At the very least there was always some kind of major compromise. Or it would work for a while then things would be iffy until some kind of update / fix. The one thing i needed to always work, became unreliable.

    For example: We were traveling and while the bank app seemed to work, notifications were broke, completely leaving my friend in the dark as serious issues were going on with his account and payments being rejected while traveling. Some apps didn’t play nice with contactless payments. Etc.

    That’s a fucking deal breaker for most people. So I’m glad that’s no longer the case. Maybe I’ll play around with it again soon.












  • Yes. Jellyfin is mostly awesome, now. I would recommend it to everyone.

    Plex has been around a long, long time and the experience from backend to the front is still for the most part unmatched. It was really nice to have proper full featured clients on all devices. Built in skipping intros and ability to download content for offline use was really nice and would be very useful for me at this time.

    I have a lifetime pass from the very beginning and was spare change compared to what they charge now. A common misconception is they took away the ability to log in locally on the lan without phoning home. You can still do that. But ultimately I decided to move on.
