and i only want to use the R4S method
i have a...
*Nintendo switch 6.0.0
*R4S Dongle (with rcm jig)
*32gb micro sd-card (Fat32)

if you can, provide the a link to files i need to put on the R4S and sd-card
and please tell me what file goes in the sd-card and what file goes in the R4S

I myself updated from 5.1 to 6.0. You should use choijourn. Autorcm will be disabled, so you have to enable it again if you wish. And remember to download and use the latest hekate after update. I recommend downloading latest tomger sd files.

Thanks! Any simpler method guys? As i said, i don´t care for my fuses
If you don't care about your fuses or downgrading, you can update your system firmware the official way. But that involves connecting online and risking a ban. ChoiDujourNX is arguably the easiest way to update while the console is in Airplane Mode.

How would I go about adding Xor Play functionality to ReiNX, since simply adding the kip file isn't enough and I don't see a ini file for ReiNX where I could possibly add the necessary lines. Do I just go ahead and add that ini file myself under bootloader/ini or is there more to it?

Weird thing is happening. Bought an extra switch today. Updated to 6.1 and backed up NAND. I used ReiNX > Tinfoil to install an .nsp.. everything works, game works. Then I press the power button for sleepmode and now the screen won't turn on again :mellow:. Long pressing the power button helps and I'm still able to enter CFW, but pressing the sleep power button causes an error that I can't see?

EDIT: I see that there are cases where OFW has the same problem. Anyone found a solution?

EDIT: Same question on the other forum
I have the same problem. Tried the latest official release and the nightly build. Neither of them solved it.. Did you find a solution?

^ got the same problem today after flashing ReiNX, it just crashed without a reason, so probably N firmware bug 6.1.0. After crash it went to normal

Bit of a noob question but I just installed ReiNX but I'm on a decently small microsd (32GB). I have a 128GB on the way, and when I get it, is it safe to just drag and drop the entire SD contents from the 32GB SD (including the Nintendo folder) onto the 128GB SD?

Yes, you can just directly copy the contents from one SD card to another.

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
