Latest Windows 11 security patch might be breaking SSDs under heavy workloads — Phison investigating reports of disappearing drives following file transfers, including some that cannot be recovered after a reboot​

Here are a list of tested and affected drives that did and did not get fucked in the Windows 11 security update

Notably WD Blue M.2 SSD's got turbofucked and couldn't be retrieved.

The error occurs when downloading 50gb or more at once. Seems to affect drives without NAND more.

Now my rig is all SSD's, 1 SATA, 3 M.2. I haven't noticed any issues. I also haven't been making heavy downloads to my one MLC Kingston NV2 drive I use for file storage so... idk , everything else has 3D NAND. But this is something to be aware of if you have Windows 11. Hopefully they fix this fast.

I have popcorn ready.

X3D is old and busted, X6D is the new hotness.

Lisa Su has been playing 6D chess with us this whole time.

Let me guess, pajeet coding triggered massive write amplification and drives can't cope.
Edit. WD drives shitting themselves for good? Where have I seen that before?

Fucked if i know. I just hope it isn't wide spread and is just only fucking with a few machines.

 

[The Ugly One]

1. Is it worth getting an X3D CPU if I never really plan on getting a high end GPU? The highest end GPU I'll end up with is likely the 7900 GRE.

Use-case dependent, meaning go find benchmarks of software you run that isn't instantly fast and see if it affects it.

 

[Susanna]

also also X3D is literally made for gaming according to AMD themselves but they show some benchmarks for stuff regarding their flagship which is the 9950 series, do you want to know the other ones? though luck, alls you get is comparisons to gaming, i'd rather tell you to look at the processor you want in the amd comparison site and work from there.

Phoronix benchmark both productivity software and games performance.

he left windows 10?

AMD Confirms Radeon RX 9060 OEM-Only Availability But Might Introduce The GPU Through Retail Channels

Valve Fremont appears on Geekbench, 6-core AMD custom APU with Radeon RX 7600-level graphics

AMD releases FidelityFX SDK 2.0, FSR 4 goes full open source

Update: GitHub repository has been removed by AMD as a result of the inclusion of files that were not intended to be present. According to uzzi38, one of such files confirmed AMD was working on FSR4 for the INT8 version.

Phison takes legal action over falsified 'leaked' document on Windows SSD issues — says it continues to investigate reports of problems (archive)

On Tuesday, we reported that a Microsoft security update for Windows 11 appears to be causing SSD failures following heavy file transfers. While drives sporting Phison NAND controllers are amongst the drives affected, Phison's tech is not solely impacted, as was erroneously reported elsewhere. In a statement to Tom's Hardware, Phison confirmed it is aware of the issue and is investigating.

In the meantime, Phison says it has recently become aware of a "falsified document" that has been passed off as having originated from within the company, and has reportedly been circulated to various customers. "We wish to state unequivocally that the document in question—reproduced below—is neither an official nor unofficial communication from Phison," the company told Tom's Hardware.

3D V-Cache was originally developed for the HPC market and first appeared on EPYC Zen 3 CPUs.

I have evidence that whoever is in charge of WiFi drivers at ASUS will have a functional nuclear weapon within 30 days. Once this new rig is sorted (posting from the old) it will be my last unless I cannot just plug in an RTX7080 5 years from now.

Whats your new rigs specs.

 

[Gruntgar The Indentured]

Whats your new rigs specs.

9800X3D, B850 Plus Wifi (which seems to be the problem), 32GB RAM, 5080 and the rest. I've seen a lots of reports of issues with WiFi and the board. I'm going to get it sorted tomorrow and some will be enjoying prison. Tomorrow I'll hook up via ethernet and fix this BS. It's what I deserve for notting getting a pair oof 5800X3D's last year.

 

[Mister Fister]

Why are you running off Wifi when you can run of off ethernet in the first place?

 

[Gruntgar The Indentured]

Because it is replacing a 3700X/X570 build that could connect to WiFi out of the box. I've had a few shots of Russian trench water so I'm waiting for Improbability Factor to return to 1:1 before proceeding.

Is this the thread to ask people about parts recomendations and be told your PC parts are shit and you should have bought XYZ instead?

It can be that for you at a moment's notice.

 

[Just Some Other Guy]

Welcome to every tech thread ever where everyone is convinced that their own personal choices are the only "correct" way of doing it.

Fair enough, are you overclocking that 5080?

 

[General Emílio Médici]

Was doing some window shopping for parts just so I have a idea of what to buy when I get the money, why is it allmost all modern motherboards now have in built WiFi? Dunno, feels kinda weird. Maybe I am just paranoid.

Anyway, I am looking to replace my machine at the end of the year. I chose some pieces but I am somewhat lost because the current GPU naming convention is a mess and so I find it hard to tell which ones are recent launches and which one are old. The best way to check if the build is going well in my experience is to show it to other nerds and let them fight over it.

My current PC was bought in mid to late 2019, though I changed the GPU and put a simple watercooler on it. I want a machine that is better in every way for obvious reasons. Here are the specs of my current machine

Spoiler: Specs

Ryzen 7 2700X
A real shit chinesium water cooler
MSI X470 Gayming Pro
32Gb (2x16) DDR4 2133mhz
Radeon RX 6700 XT
500Gb M2 Ssd
2Tb HDD WD Blue

and something I made on PCPartPicker:

Spoiler: New Specs

PCPartPicker Part List

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7700X 4.5 GHz 8-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE 66.17 CFM CPU Cooler
Motherboard: MSI B650 GAMING PLUS WIFI ATX AM5 Motherboard
Memory: Kingston FURY Beast 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30 Memory
Storage: Samsung 990 Pro 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive
Storage: Western Digital Blue 8 TB 3.5" 5640 RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: Sapphire PULSE Radeon RX 7900 XT 20 GB Video Card
Power Supply: MSI MAG A750BN PCIE5 750 W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply

Also really annoying how prevalent LGBT lighting is. I would love to have either a setting to turn it all off or just not get it. Mainly on the fence about the GPU if I should try for a RX 9070 or a RX 7900 XT. The use of X's and XT's with the numbers themselves not apparently being the generation is really fucking annoying, what happened to the good old system where you have 9000 series, 9100 series, 9200 series and so on? Why this new shit that is seemlingly made to confuse you? Are they hoping I am gonna buy a older and weaker card just because the number if bigger as if I am not going to triple check before dropping over 800 Trump on a pc part?

Also: Water Coolers. Should I get one? I have a really simple one that works really well but it is chinesium made, I only found out after the fact (I should have known it was too cheap) that it has a reputation for working flawlessly until a month after the 1 year warranty expires. Thinking of getting a good one if I buy this new PC.

Before anyone can make any recs can you confirm the primary purpose of wanting to upgrade (I can only assume it’s gaming)? What resolution are you wanting to game at? What games do you mostly play? What is your budget? Do you want to do AI shit with the PC?
