how

digital hill
#

Hardware monitor

proud trellis
#

i dont think its temps

supple bane
#

not all drives have temperature sensors in either iirc

digital hill
#

True though motherboards have temp sensors

supple bane
#

at least not ones that windows can access

proud trellis
#

will i have to end up reinstalling windows ?

signal acorn
#

Hey can someone help explain why everytime I try and start a match on bf4 on my ps3 it just freezes?

supple bane
#

idk probably because its 14 years old lol

#

its older than a lot of the people in this server

signal acorn
#

I go over to ds2 and it works fine so it's not the age mate

supple bane
#

ds2? destiny 2?

signal acorn
#

Dark Souls 2

#

Destiny is D2

proud trellis
#

ds2 is old tho

supple bane
#

its about the same age as bf4

signal acorn
#

My ds2 works fine tho

supple bane
#

try repair or something. id be impressed for a hdd to last 10 years without failure, once you reach 14 id be anticipating things to start to break

Hey guys my pc keeps freezing randomly while gaming and I lose power to my mouse and keyboard forcing me to do a hard reboot once I reboot a red led light turns on my motherboard by the DRAM but eventually turns off and my pc works again.

#

I’ve tried reseating the ram and that hasn’t really made the problem go away

#

I’ve also changed my power setting to high performance

#

But still happens

#

Any suggestions

#

?

#

I’m running a stress test right now

#

To see if it will find any errors

proud trellis
#

@prime jasper if the test reveals anything and you find a fix can you tell me please , my pc also freezes and I have no idea why

prime jasper
#

@proud trellis will do!

quick locust
#

check event viewer

prime jasper
#

I did...says kernel-power

#

Id 41

#

No idea what that means

quick locust
#

just a generic error after a crash/bsod

#

Do you only crash in gaming

prime jasper
#

Yeah

#

Only when gaming

#

And it matter for how long

quick locust
#

any OC?

prime jasper
#

Sorry what’s an oc

quick locust
#

overclock

prime jasper
#

Oh overclock

#

No

quick locust
#

hm

#

could be both software and hardware

#

too generic

#

try using DDU on gpu drivers then get newest

prime jasper
#

Okay

#

I will give that a try after the stress test

#

Thanks

#

But as far as I know all my drivers are up to date

quick locust
#

Yeah, just trying to pinpoint since it can be many things

prime jasper
#

I really hope it’s not my gpu

#

Apparently gigabyte 3070 have a lot of problems

quick locust
#

3070? lucky

#

Anyway it can be both hardware and software, so you need to attempt to pinpoint issues - drivers, thermals, windows being stupid, etc

prime jasper
#

Okay thanks for the help

#

Hopefully this stress test finds uncovers something

storm osprey
#

if you get a red light on your MB by DRAM doesnt that mean your ram is bad?

prime jasper
#

That’s what I’m thinking

#

But I don’t have any other ram to test if that’s the problem

#

Oh just found a way to check ram so I’ll do that

storm osprey
#

running memtest or whatever its called fixed my old ram problems

prime jasper
#

Sweet that’s exactly it

#

Thanks

#

Will do that

prime jasper
#

Nothing on the stress test

#

And the ram test either

#

CPU, gpu, and psu seems fine

#

Could it be the mother board?

#

Or software?

proud trellis
#

i think i might need to reinstall windows to stop it tbh

#

so i just went onto steam and half of my games are uninstalled

#

wtf

supple bane
#

Go onto download settings,

#

Library folders

#

And add any ones that are missing

#

It happens to me some times

noble ore
#

A Linux Phone?!?

strong breach
#

hey just watched that :D

#

it did suck and was awfully expensive cause made in US

digital hill
#

Finally

#

I can run arch on my phone

pastel lily
#

Nice!

#

Next stop: Temple 😄

quick locust
#

Pinephone is more reasonably priced

quick locust
#

It really needs software improvements though

Intel Alder Lake-S with 16-cores and DDR5 memory Intel’s 12th Gen Core Alder Lake-S processor has been discovered on the SiSoftware website by @momomo_us. This isn’t the first time this 16-core Alder Lake CPU had appeared in the leaks. Back in October a similar SKU has been discovered on Sisoftware website. Another Alder Lake CPU […]

#

Intel 12th gen with DDR5 coming this year

#

My advice: skip 11th gen

molten coral
#

imagine buying intel right now

latent light
#

12th gen will be over 30% faster than 11th gen

#

In single-core alone

#

AMD is in trouble, Zen4 with DDR5 expected a whole year later

storm osprey
proud trellis
#

i would come and live next door to you nyphon just to put RGB all around my house

#

and piss you off

storm osprey
#

ill paint mine all black

proud trellis
#

i will rebuild mine with RGB bricks

supple bane
#

RGB, Red Green Bricks

weak girder
#

lego house

latent light
#

12th gen Intel i9 gets 12, 16-core models, i7 gets 8 and 10-core

weak girder
#

wow

latent light
#

There will be 16-core i9 in laptops

weak girder
#

how can you put that in a laptop

#

I thought the maximum was 6 cores in a laptop

latent light
#

8 core Ryzen laptops been out since late 2017

opaque saddle
#

nah they used to have workstation machines with xeon processors

#

that is a laptop workstation tho

#

i dont see the points getting rgb

#

my monitor is rgb, why dont i stick a screen inside my case

turbid verge
#

oh a cpu that supports DDR5

#

can't wait to pay 200€ for 8GB of DDR5 Ram

proud trellis
#

lol

opaque saddle
#

true

#

at least i wouldnt. quite happy with my rig and nothing needs to worry about

solar kestrel
#

so im thinking about getting the 1070 gpu when all the prices inevitably go down so how much should I pay for it

latent light
#

@solar kestrel don't buy an outdated graphics card brand new

solar kestrel
#

ok

latent light
#

GTX 1070 is 5 years old

solar kestrel
#

i know its still a card that will do everything i need

latent light
#

Get GTX 1660 Super or RTX 2060

proud trellis
#

is a 1660s better then the 1070 ?

latent light
#

About equal

proud trellis
#

oh

solar kestrel
#

yeah

#

but since the 1070 is older ill be able to get a used one for less right

#

that makes sense in my head

latent light
#

If you can get a used 1070 for like $170 or less that would be ok

solar kestrel
#

yah ok

#

thats what i was thinking just making sure

proud trellis
#

would a 1080ti be worth getting ? or are they expensive

solar kestrel
#

right now nothing is worth getting

#

but i have a friend who has a 1080 ti and he says its a nice card

quick locust
#

right now everything has 0 stock

solar kestrel
#

well that oo

#

too

#

MeowTriumph \

quick locust
#

but yeah 1080ti still decent but it was the first pascal card to end production and its been in decent demand

#

but good if you can find one cheap

latent light
#

Nothing older than RTX 2000 is worth getting brand new, Nvidia never drops prices of older tech

solar kestrel
#

now is such of a bad time for me to upgrade my pc and i didnt even relise it till i needed a gpu

#

so now i got a temporary GT 640 hand me down from my cousin till i get the 1070

latent light
#

Don't spend more than $200 for a 1070 lol

solar kestrel
#

yah i know

#

i wasnt planning on it

quick locust
#

i wanted to find 5600xt for friend but those seem higher price too

latent light
#

If anything, just look for a GTX 1660Ti or 1660 Super

solar kestrel
#

nah those are more expensive and the 1070 has similar performance

#

most 1660 s when the prices were good were like 250

#

if not more

strong breach
#

i sold my 1070 for 150€

#

was a good gpu

solar kestrel
#

yah thats 5 dollars more then 200

quick locust
#

cant find any 1070 here so cant compare pricing

solar kestrel
#

so not a bad price for a card that can do just as well as the 1660s for about 50 bucks less on a good day

#

yeah

#

is there a reason that they are out of stock with basically every card to exist

#

i assume its because of covid

quick locust
#

well they ended production some years ago

#

plus demand

#

hard to find most pascal here

#

except 1030 and 1050

strong breach
#

Nvidia also just released a new Pascal GPU

#

gtx 1010 LUL

quick locust
#

yeah 1010

#

useless

#

lul

strong breach
#

im honestly curious how it'll run games like cs:go or rocket league

solar kestrel
#

wait so they dont make 1070 any more?

modern gull
#

is it real or a joke?

strong breach
#

it's real

modern gull
#

lol

quick locust
#

no @solar kestrel

solar kestrel
#

darn tootin

#

ok

modern gull
#

might aswell revive the 8800 series 😛

quick locust
#

only pascal in production is 1010 which you shouldnt get

strong breach
#

it's the gpu nobody asked for

solar kestrel
#

fr

modern gull
#

ya we past the 10 series leo

quick locust
#

Best Buy and Walmart: Finally, something new we can overprice prebuilts with

strong breach
#

it runs GTA V 40fps on 1080p all low

#

🤔

#

pretty good for a 50€ GPU tho

modern gull
#

oh only 50 eur?

strong breach
#

it's cheap as heck

modern gull
#

not to shabby not gonna lie

#

but integrated gpu dont they perform like this?

#

or atleast close

solar kestrel
#

some yah

quick locust
#

vega and xe does

strong breach
#

720p gaming

modern gull
#

ah i see

strong breach
#

seems good for 1010

modern gull
#

lol

#

720p ancient res. even 1080p close to ancient i'd say

strong breach
#

Speccy doesn't know that my cpu is 9700k

modern gull
#

haha

#

nice pc

solar kestrel
#

yah fr

strong breach
#

i just need 32gb of ram

#

and then im happy

#

getting close to using 16gb sometimes

solar kestrel
#

honestly i dont see a point in 32 gb

#

at least for most people its nice but isnt necissaary

quick locust
#

i wonder what montrosity 1010 oem versions will be

modern gull
strong breach
#

im sometimes up to 15gb usage

quick locust
solar kestrel
#

oh my

#

15 GB? i use like 10 sometimes

quick locust
#

cities skylines: all your ram is mine

modern gull
#

stock ram speed is 2133 something without xmp leo

strong breach
#

im using 7.5gb ram when just "idling"

#

aka discord + Chrome

modern gull
#

oh

solar kestrel
#

that doesnt seem good

modern gull
#

many tabs on chrome?

solar kestrel
#

how the heck did you manage to do that

strong breach
#

✨ Chrome ✨

modern gull
#

lol

solar kestrel
#

i use frefox

modern gull
#

me too

solar kestrel
#

😉

quick locust
#

my idle ram usage is about 650 MB

modern gull
#

5 tabs and not 400mb

solar kestrel
#

isnt it supposed to be less thengoogle

modern gull
#

wait i see you have 17 tabs now

strong breach
#

i got 17 :(

solar kestrel
#

like the usage of everything

modern gull
#

ya that explains it

solar kestrel
#

oi got a solid 20 tabs open with a bunch of coding things

modern gull
#

when i scroll long time on reddit i get like 6gb+ at times

strong breach
#

but yeah 32gb is my next upgrade

#

😴

#

sometimes

#

there's no rush to it tbh

solar kestrel
#

my ram is at a solid 8gb rn

quick locust
#

cities skylines eats rsm

#

ram*

modern gull
#

lol

quick locust
#

ive had it use 26 GB

solar kestrel
#

my gpu is bottelnecking my cpuj like an absolute b*tch

modern gull
#

bf5 eats cpu

quick locust
#

yeah

#

can max my 8700K sometimes

solar kestrel
#

anything i play eats cpu to 100%because my gpu is so bad

digital hill
#

Cities skyline

modern gull
#

even had to overclock my cpu a bit to get more fps

digital hill
#

Man you should open 20 chrome tabs

#

Thats a big ram eater

quick locust
#

cities skylines beats chrome

#

if you have mods

digital hill
#

True

#

but you have chrome extensions

solar kestrel
#

ive never played it

quick locust
#

i havent used chrome since like 2010 i think

modern gull
solar kestrel
#

no mate

quick locust
#

which cpu

solar kestrel
#

i got a 640

quick locust
#

and gpu

solar kestrel
#

GT 640

#

look it up

modern gull
#

lol

quick locust
#

which cpu

solar kestrel
#

I-5

modern gull
#

but if cpu is at 100% you wouldnt benefit much from stronger gpu anyways tho i'd say

quick locust
#

Thats unspecific

solar kestrel
#

i-5 10400f

quick locust
#

There's hundred i5s

#

ah

solar kestrel
#

10th gen

#

so no integrated graphics

supple bane
#

if your gpu is bad then your cpu usage would be really low

opaque saddle
#

f series

solar kestrel
#

yeah ik not the best

storm osprey
#

f series just doesnt have an igpu

#

outside that theres nothing wrong with it

solar kestrel
#

yah

#

thats why i got it

storm osprey
#

it being a 10th gen has nothing to do with igpu or not

solar kestrel
#

i know

supple bane
#

if every game you play pins your cpu to 100% when you have a gt 640 there is something seriously wrong with your system

modern gull
#

lol

opaque saddle
#

gt 640 is really bad...

solar kestrel
#

i know

#

its horrid

opaque saddle
#

i got the GT 630M (not 630)

supple bane
#

if you have an 10400f, with a gt 640 id expect like 10% cpu usage at most

solar kestrel
#

its temporary tho casue you cant get any gpus for a decent price rn so my cousin gave me his ancient one

opaque saddle
#

and it is slow. really slow

solar kestrel
#

yea

#

its nasty

#

im gonna get a 1070 when things are reasonable though

storm osprey
#

not worth

solar kestrel
#

why not

opaque saddle
#

dont get the 1070

storm osprey
#

unless your used market is good

opaque saddle
#

too old

#

too bad for the price

heady totem
storm osprey
#

because that card is 2 gens old

digital hill
#

Press ctrl shift and esc sorry

weak girder
#

you can get better for cheaper now

opaque saddle
#

i would get a brand new card with warranty

quick locust
#

get 5600xt/5700 or 1660s or better

solar kestrel
#

i know but it performes as well as the 1660s

weak girder
#

its more exoensive

supple bane
storm osprey
#

again, unless you have good used markets its not worth

opaque saddle
#

unless you can get it for 100 bucks

heady totem
#

thanks

molten coral
#

or just do ctrl + shift + esc

quick locust
#

or right click taskbar

solar kestrel
#

but why would i got for a 1660s if they performe similarly

heady totem
#

how do i post my screenshot?

supple bane
#

you cant, you need regular role

#

you can dm it to me and ill post it

digital hill
#

^

opaque saddle
#

it takes time to earn. and spamming wont get you the regular role

supple bane
#

or that

heady totem
#

nvm

heady totem
#

yeah

#

thats mine

digital hill
#

You got an alienware

opaque saddle
#

you meant to check the ram usage?

heady totem
#

no i don't actualy

supple bane
heady totem
#

its a dell g3

storm osprey
digital hill
#

Oh that makes sense

quick locust
#

dell owns alienware

opaque saddle
#

gaming laptop?

storm osprey
#

seems youre stuck on a 1070 for some random reason

opaque saddle
#

or desktop?

heady totem
#

gamin laptop

opaque saddle
#

no

weak girder
prime jasper
#

Can I get away with running some games off my external hard drive

digital hill
#

Yes you can

opaque saddle
#

thats the max q version of 1070

heady totem
#

uhh i have a nvidia gtx and a core i5 i belive

supple bane
#

i do that, its fine

quick locust
#

yes some games are just slow with external hdd

solar kestrel
#

1070 because i can get it for cheaper then a 1660s right?

storm osprey
#

what price?

#

how much are 3060 there?

#

what is your use case?

supple bane
#

my EHDD has read speeds of 100MB/s, which is plenty fast enough

weak girder
heady totem
#

idk what else im 13

digital hill
#

Well sad news 3060 ti in the us is going to be 400

heady totem
#

im dumb

opaque saddle
storm osprey
#

3060 is msrp 320

heady totem
#

idk its connected to a bigger montior though

supple bane
opaque saddle
#

wait up, the G3 has the 1070 max q

digital hill
#

In the us

prime jasper
#

Mine says up to 5,000Mb

solar kestrel
#

in the us rigt now a 1050ti is about 350$

storm osprey
#

he is na

weak girder
prime jasper
#

So that should be more than fine then I guess

#

Sweet

heady totem
#

ok

storm osprey
supple bane
weak girder
supple bane
#

because no external drive is reading at 5gb/s lmao

digital hill
#

usb 3 or usb 2 maybe?

solar kestrel
#

I wanted something below 225 but ill pay a little more if need be

storm osprey
#

imo its 100% worth spending 100 bucks more to get a 3060

solar kestrel
#

keep in mind in only want to play games at max res and such at 75 htz

prime jasper
#

@supple bane you’re right it is!

#

Fuck how do I find out the reading speed

#

It’s WB 4TB

opaque saddle
#

i think the 3060ti is like a few percent faster than 2070s

storm osprey
#

the market right now is so fucked that youre gonna spend 200 bucks on gpus that are not even close to worth that price

solar kestrel
#

yeah i know

weak girder
#

Im planning to buy the 3050 ti

prime jasper
#

145mb

storm osprey
#

so try for a 3060, or basically get screwed

weak girder
prime jasper
#

That probably sounds more right

opaque saddle
#

i always aim for one grade higher

solar kestrel
#

thats why i have a gt 640 temporarily till the market gets better

opaque saddle
#

like if i wanna get a 2060, i will ended up getting 2070/2070s

storm osprey
#

3060 is overkill for what he has mentioned already

#

but it will be his only chance at a reasonably priced gpu

solar kestrel
#

originally i was gonna go for a 1650s then i decided that i wanted a 1070 because it outperforms and isnt to much more

weak girder
#

1650 s is already a nice upgrade

solar kestrel
#

yah fr

quick locust
#

5600xt too if you can find one

opaque saddle
#

i think the 1070 is faster than 1650s...

solar kestrel
#

much

#

its closer to the 1660s\

storm osprey
#

yea but at these prices

opaque saddle
#

yeah

storm osprey
#

fuck buying any of those at those prices

quick locust
#

market is ded

opaque saddle
#

i wouldnt get 1650 or 1650s

latent light
#

1650 Super is slightly slower than regular 1660

solar kestrel
#

yah

storm osprey
#

unless you can get these used for like 100-150 i wouldnt even bother

#

and knowing the market good luck with that

weak girder
#

I wouldnt buy used

latent light
#

RX 570 on eBay goes for ~$70

opaque saddle
#

coz those amd cards used to be for crytocurrency mining

latent light
#

RX 570 almost as fast as 1060 6GB

storm osprey
#

i doubt that price, even for a 4gb 570

solar kestrel
#

arnt nvidea cardfs better for power sonsumpotion as well

latent light
#

Not anymore

weak girder
#

^

solar kestrel
#

with older cards i mean

storm osprey
#

with older cards yes

opaque saddle
#

290 or 390x are examples

storm osprey
#

yea even 4gb 570 are overpriced on used market

latent light
#

RX 570 still being used for mining

opaque saddle
#

yeah

#

same as 480

weak girder
#

rx 580 is great as a budget card

storm osprey
#

not anymore

solar kestrel
#

ive never really understood what crypto mining is

opaque saddle
#

i would rather get a brand new for that price

storm osprey
#

its like no one is listening to me

opaque saddle
#

not 570 of cause

storm osprey
#

prices are fucked, new and used

solar kestrel
#

we know

storm osprey
#

doesnt seem like it

opaque saddle
#

unless bitcoin or other crytocurrency price crashed

storm osprey
#

closest 570 i can find to 70 bucks on ebay

opaque saddle
#

then i guess you will be able to see a normal price for a new card

storm osprey
#

is defective

opaque saddle
#

bids

latent light
#

I see people sell broken cards for almost retail prices lmao

opaque saddle
#

do they even read description lmao

#

clearly dont

storm osprey
#

@solar kestrel join stock drops, and try to get a 3060 at launch

solar kestrel
#

i dont want a 3060

storm osprey
#

anything else results in you getting screwed over unless you find a hell of a deal

#

why dont you want a 3060?

latent light
#

I wouldn't even buy a dead RTX 3090 for $50

solar kestrel
#

i mean it would be nice but then id have to upgrade my psu and it would just be to much

opaque saddle
#

unless you know how to fix the card

#

i mean to repair it by yourself

solar kestrel
#

id also have to buy most likely a 144htz monitor if i wanted to actually get to use it

opaque saddle
#

and you know it's more likely can be revived

storm osprey
#

450w psu is recommended....

solar kestrel
#

oh

#

i have that

storm osprey
#

and yes, a 144hz monitor would be nice, but its not like you neeed it

opaque saddle
#

i got a viewsonic vx2758-2kp-mhd (1440p 144hz 27" IPS display) for 310 USD

#

but more likely you will need a better card to run it

#

maybe 1080p will be enough

solar kestrel
#

doesnt sceptre make good monitors

storm osprey
#

anything else other than a 3060 will result in you not getting your moneys worth unless you get stupidly lucky

solar kestrel
#

i was gona get the 1070 used

storm osprey
#

that falls under "result in you not getting your moneys worth unless you get stupidly lucky"

opaque saddle
#

with your 10400f. you can pair with anything. but people will recommended pair with a better card

solar kestrel
#

also how much is a 3060 usually cost when the market is how it is

storm osprey
#

3060 hasnt launched yet

#

msrp is 320

solar kestrel
#

oh

#

oops

storm osprey
opaque saddle
#

if you got a better card, you wont be regretting in a few years time, or even before your card is time for retirement or replacement

storm osprey
#

1070 used are selling for 320

latent light
#

3060 gets 12GB of VRAM and costs only $330

storm osprey
#

a 3060 will shit on a 1070

latent light
#

3060 is faster than 2070 Super

solar kestrel
#

🙂

opaque saddle
#

i thought the ti is between 2070s an 2080s

molten coral
#

I like how the 3060ti is around 550-600 euro

storm osprey
#

again "anything else other than a 3060 will result in you not getting your moneys worth unless you get stupidly lucky"

molten coral
solar kestrel
#

i have a freind who flexes ther 2070 s this is somethign i can get behind

latent light
#

3060Ti is faster than 2080 Super

opaque saddle
#

depends on the game tho

solar kestrel
#

agian tho

in raw performance. yes a 3060 ti is faster

solar kestrel
#

i wouldnt need all that

storm osprey
#

...

#

so you want to get a 1070 for 320 that is way worse than a 3060?

opaque saddle
#

right i give up

solar kestrel
#

no lmao

storm osprey
#

so whats the point in saying "i wouldnt need all that"

solar kestrel
#

i wouldnt tho

opaque saddle
#

i meant we dont want you to be upset

storm osprey
#

you dont

latent light
#

1070 is a pretty risky card to buy used, you could end up with one that was used in a mining rig for like 5 years

solar kestrel
#

ill just wait till evrything gets better

storm osprey
#

youre gonna be waiting a long time

#

if i had to guess, at least 3 months

opaque saddle
#

we were trying to give you a suggestion, where you can get a much better card for the same/similar price

solar kestrel
#

yah i know

#

i enjoyed the conversation

#

so when the 3060 launches itll be how much?

latent light
#

Wait until RTX 3050 and 3050Ti

solar kestrel
#

when do those come out

storm osprey
#

unannounced

solar kestrel
#

oh it is supposed to be a decent price

#

cheaper then the 3060 but im assuming it will out perform the 1070

latent light
#

3050Ti is gonna use the same GPU chip that the 3060 has but with about 10% of the cores disabled

#

Also half the VRAM

#

Speculated to cost ~$200

solar kestrel
#

so basically what i am hearing is wait for the 3050 to come out

storm osprey
#

if you can wait, yes

solar kestrel
#

i can wait

latent light
#

I would wait until at least April to buy a GPU

solar kestrel
#

oh for sure

storm osprey
#

but if you want a 3050/ti i doubt youll get it at launch so youll be waitinf quite a while

solar kestrel
#

ill probably just go for the 3050

#

no ti

latent light
#

Nvidia supply is supposed to start meeting demand by April

solar kestrel
#

i hope so

storm osprey
#

is that 3080 supply?

#

will 3050 even be announced?

#

speculation

solar kestrel
#

is there any info on the 3050

latent light
#

Yeah not guaranteed lol

storm osprey
#

no info on 3050

solar kestrel
#

yah

#

i just looked it up

prime jasper
#

@supple bane hey so when I plug my external hard drive in it doesn’t show up on my pc

latent light
#

RTX 3050 does infact have no more than 2304 CUDA cores

prime jasper
#

@supple bane do you know how to fix that?

latent light
#

Because it's chip doesn't allow for more

solar kestrel
#

do we know the release date for the 3060

storm osprey
#

feb 12th iirc

latent light
#

RTX 3050 - 4GB memory @14 Gbps, ~2304 CUDA cores, 90W TGP

solar kestrel
#

its supposed to be like 350 at launch tho

storm osprey
#

no idea what you are asking

solar kestrel
#

i didnt ask anything... did i?

storm osprey
#

"its supposed to be like 350 at launch tho"

#

let me rephrase, no idea what youre saying

solar kestrel
#

one of the card we were talking about

storm osprey
#

the 3060 is supposed to be 320 msrp

solar kestrel
#

cant remember now either the 3060 or the 3050 is supposed to be around that price

#

yah thats what i was talking about

storm osprey
#

i was confused if you were talking about price or typoed "3050" to "350"

#

3060 msrp is actually $330

solar kestrel
#

yah i re read it and confused myself cause i thought i typed something wrong lmao

storm osprey
solar kestrel
#

zoinks

storm osprey
#

basically your best bet for probably the next 6 months is to get cards at launch

solar kestrel
#

mk

storm osprey
#

so you just have to decide your budget and when you want to jump in

#

other than that youll have to monitor the used market and decide what is worth it to you

solar kestrel
#

yea

#

thanks for the help

storm osprey
#

if ever you see something used that might be good you can dm me to double check if its worth

solar kestrel
#

ok

#

thanks

wind pagoda
#

ok

storm osprey
#

ok

storm osprey
#

hmm, msrp of 3060 is 330, but theres no founders edition card, which is normally how these cards hit msrp...

molten coral
#

Just gonna try some stuff before contacting nvidia

proud trellis
#

awwwww thats peak

storm osprey
#

isnt this your 2nd 2080ti as well?

molten coral
#

Yes

proud trellis
#

second ? holy shit

storm osprey
#

well, if anything its an excuse to get a 3080

digital hill
#

I'll take that broke 2080ti for free

turbid verge
#

@digital hill problem isnt the fact its broke

#

its the 2080ti founders have problems on their micron chips

digital hill
#

Ah that makes sense

molten coral
#

Hmm reseating the GPU worked somehow

#

although i've my doubts

#

it will work for long

#

as this is kinda the same thing what happened with the first 2080ti

supple bane
#

could run furmark for a bit

#

or timespy stress test

opaque saddle
#

Just wondering for those of you who have 3 monitors, what do you usually use it for?

#

Coz I got a 34” VA 3440x1440p 144hz ultrawide for gaming

#

But I tends to swap over the other 27”. Both IPS.

2: 2K 144hz 131% sRGB
3: 4K 60hz 100% sRGB

digital hill
#

Damn

opaque saddle
#

The problem is my 2k 144hz is collecting dust but the colour is great

digital hill
#

I just have a 1080p 144hz va monitor

opaque saddle
#

I love my monitors but I don’t use 3 at the same time

molten coral
opaque saddle
#

I use two but swap those 27” between, over and over again

#

Using my 34” as my primary

#

Not sure what do you guys do if any of you do have 3 monitors

quick locust
#

2K is around 1080p

supple bane
#

#

2k is 1080p. 2.5k is 1440p

quick locust

I just use a single 2560x1440 165 Hz TN rn, 24 in

so no ray tracing or dlss

storm osprey

tried ultra, got 50fps then high and 50-55 fps

proud trellis

wtf

storm osprey

no vsynv or frame cap?

faint flame
#

set the resolution scale to 100%, now 130+fps

#

thanks

storm osprey
#

youre welcome

digital hill
#

@prime jasper I recommend to look in game resolution and change to your monitor resolution

#

That happened to me in bfbc2

prime jasper
#

i have gtx 1650 with i3 9100f with 16 ram , on a tv 1360x768
i installed all the drivers and i set the display to 1360x768 but the screen looks blurry i did everything like unnistaling the graphic card drivers ... updates ... rebot , but still no fonction but the thing i dont know is in advanced display setting i see on information of the resolution of the desktop 1920x768

can an1 help me with this

latent light
digital hill
#

@prime jasper Change your pc resolution also

#

Look in settings

prime jasper
#

i did change it to 1360 ( native but still blury )

arctic makes white fans

No

Not boring white

Glowing white, LEDs

I want the lianli fans

Not rgb, just white

No control, just white

youre both just young, your pallet will mature

what does RGB actually stand for tho

Arent those the ones isuni got and refunded ?

your computer taste is equivalent to this car taste

all white gives me a headache

what would you do if you get bored of white fans

supple bane
#

I never get bored of white

molten coral

White is good

storm osprey

thats racist

proud trellis

molten coral

because you can use all colors

storm osprey

yes ice, you

supple bane

Hehe yea

it has nothing to it

i have a bit i could give from my money jar

yo thats like 1.3k for me

supple bane

950 euros is about 1200 dollars

Is the 2080ti ded then? @molten coral

molten coral
#

Not yet but I think it will be soon

#

It's the exact same behavior when my first card died

storm osprey
#

i wonder if thats something else

#

like mb or bad power

supple bane
#

Thats so strange

#

Its not bad power

#

He got a new psu not so long ago

molten coral
#

the first card that died was tested in a few rigs but never worked

storm osprey
#

ah

#

hopefully you get a 30xx replacement

molten coral
#

ngl if it really dies i'm gonna have to wait until may before I can order it

#

Saving money for other stuff right now

supple bane
#

Well somethings killing them.

molten coral
#

yes the chips on the card haHAA

supple bane
#

How long you had it?

molten coral
#

Got this one for a year now I think

#

I did run furmark for 45 minutes though so it's stable

#

oh well, will see how it goes.

#

if it dies it dies

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

supple bane
#

God i wish I had that attitude lol

#

I enter panic mode whenever my pc does something wonky

#

I blue screened the other day, just 1 and I was shitting bricks for 24 hours lol

#

It was probably just an unstable overclock. I was running ram, gpu and cpu all maxed out lol

#

When I built this desk pc, on final assembly I didn't put in the Eps power, and when it didn't post I was sweating, shaking and had a heart rate of like 170 lol

quick locust
#

i only panic when i hear that cursed crystaldiskinfo chime

molten coral
#

Well to be honest, I don't really play that many games anymore. I currently use my PC mostly just for media consumption and running virtual machines most of the time.

#

It will suck but it won't be the end of the world.

ashen oak
#

Xbox master race shall rule above all else

molten coral
#

And the gpu was free so can't complain.

supple bane
#

This is true

quick locust
#

I've no use of vms

#

ram oc can really take time

supple bane
#

Not for me it didn't lol

#

Just banged 2666 into the box and called it a day

quick locust
#

i got the trfc down to 230 or something

#

i think

#

ive forgot

supple bane
#

Was stable, and it was scoring 99th percentile on userbenchmark

quick locust
#

well i cant hit 3733 or above on this mobo

#

so i just do timings at 3600 as much as i can

#

maybe i can do 3700 idk

supple bane
#

Id love some faster ram but its just not worth it

#

If I was building a new pc 100%

#

But upgrading ? Spending 100 pounds for 5 fps?

proud trellis
#

oh

quick locust
#

my ram is decent for next few years

#

and rest of pc

supple bane
#

Besides I just broke out of my pc part addiction, I don't wanna buy any more 😁

proud trellis
#

anymore OpenEye

supple bane
#

I was buying something new like one every 2 months. Its been almost a year now tho since I brought something so I'm improving lol

quick locust
#

i usually dont buy that often but in 2019 i bought gpu twice

#

cause my vega 64 came dead

molten coral
#

I usually buy something every 3-4 months

proud trellis
#

only things i have bought is like 3 things for my pc and i had it almost a year in 3 months

molten coral
#

but for now i'm good as I've most things I want at the moment.

quick locust
#

Only thing my pc needs rn is some dust removal

molten coral
#

my PC is dusty as well

#

But don't really care about it lul

quick locust
#

my 180mm fans are dusty on the blades

proud trellis
#

mine gets dusty so quick god knows why

molten coral
#

My room gets overall pretty dusty

proud trellis
#

is it because its a small case do you think ?

quick locust
#

before this pc i used a laptop for 6 years until the gpu fan died (the gpu was rather slow anyway, gt 750M ddr3 variant)

#

idling around 100C made me just disable it

proud trellis
#

so my pc just froze and cpu went up to 100% on task manager but my disks never went above 10%

quick locust
#

lol

proud trellis
#

discord needs some spec requirements wtf

fallen harbor

🤷

weak girder
proud trellis
#

my pc can’t even handle BF1 well rn

#

this thing is fucked

weak girder
#

dude just sell the parts seperately and buy a new one

prime jasper
#

Im losing my mind. My pc keeps freezing and losing power to mouse and keyboard!

#

I’ve tried everything

#

That I can think of

weak girder
#

what are your specs?

prime jasper
#

Especially bf5

#

Crashes sometimes in main menu

#

Ryzen 7, 3070, 16gb ram

weak girder
#

whats your psu?

#

it could also be a driver problem

prime jasper
#

600W bronze

#

I know bronze sucks

#

Or is not as reliable as gold

#

But this should be enough to run my stuff without any problems

#

I’ve run stress tests on cpu, gpu, and psu

#

No problems were found

#

I’ve tested the ram

#

No errors found

#

I’m completely lost

#

I think all the drivers are update

#

Quit abusing the carriage return. Finish your sentences, then hit enter.

prime jasper
#

Sorry

weak girder
latent light
#

450w will run a 3070

weak girder
#

yeah but not his entire system

latent light
#

More than enough

weak girder
#

450w is what Ice has and that's the minimum for his system

latent light
#

My brother has i7-8086K OC @5.3 GHz and RTX 3090 on a 600W platinum PSU

weak girder
#

idk it's just that a lot of people have a 850 watt for the rtx 3080

prime jasper
#

Fuck I think SEB is right

#

“NVIDIA recommends a 650W PSU for the RTX 3070, but if you're currently working with, say, a 600W PSU, you might get along just fine depending on other hardware in your system.”

latent light
#

What Ryzen 7 do you have

prime jasper
#

3700x

#

8-core

latent light
#

Doesn't consume much power

#

3700X is rated for 65W

latent light
#

3700X draws around 110 watts under load with boost

prime jasper
#

Hmm

latent light
#

RTX 3070 is rated at 220W TGP but can peak around 280 watts

weak girder
#

you need an extra 100 watt for comfort

#

for your psu

latent light
#

Could be a bad +12v rail on the PSU too

#

600 watts would run 3700X + RTX 3070 fine normally but not all PSUs with same rating are the same

#

I've seen some 450W PSUs do a better job than 600W ones

prime jasper
#

Man this really sucks

#

I regret getting a prebuilt

latent light
#

So many possible problems

raven reef
#

What settings would you guys recommend for BF4 on a 2070 super?

latent light
#

2070 Super is completely overkill for BF4

#

Even if you got 4K display

raven reef
latent light
#

You should be able to play with graphics maxed out and your GPU still wouldn't even touch 50% utilization

latent light
#

Yw

proud trellis
#

im done with this shit

weak girder
#

1660 super is quite good, it's a shame you got it in a prebuilt that doesn't work

proud trellis
#

a R9 5900X with a 3070 lmao

weak girder
#

wow easy on the cpu

#

you can get a r7 3700x

#

and it'll work just as fine

proud trellis
#

it should come out to about 1.2k as i already have shit like the ram and AIO and some storage

#

but i just need to save every penny

prime jasper
#

Could it be my mother board?

weak girder
#

I don't think

proud trellis
#

i want to play BF6 easy

#

not sure if 8 cores are enough for it

weak girder
#

8 cores are more than enough

#

i5 9400f is already a great cpu

proud trellis
#

i will still be saving by the time BF6 is out probs

weak girder
#

I want to buy the 3050 ti when it comes out

proud trellis
#

im not gonna just put this pc to no use , im gonna give it to my brother

#

he plays games that arent such high demanding

weak girder
#

yeah

#

or you could sell the parts

#

and make cash

proud trellis
#

idk if i should sell the gpu

#

and cpu

prime jasper
#

It stopped freezing on games like Warzone and other battlefields

#

It’s just bf1-bf5

#

That do it

weak girder
proud trellis
#

i could sell , my gpu , cpu , PSU , my old ram with is the 2x4gb

weak girder
#

companies dont usually modify the gpu or cpu when building a pc

proud trellis
#

then that leaves me with the motherboard and some HHD and the case

weak girder
#

is the case good

proud trellis
#

its the company own case

#

its a mini atx

weak girder
#

could your problems also be bad airflow?

proud trellis
#

nope , temps are decent

weak girder
proud trellis
#

idk wtf is wrong

weak girder
#

me neither lol

#

seems like your problems come from outer space

proud trellis
#

ik what people will be saying when they see this convo

#

"dont sell your pc"
"DONT GET A NEW PC"

#

idc anymore

weak girder
#

I would buy a new one if I were you

proud trellis
#

yeah

#

its for the best imo

weak girder
#

when your pc is fucked might as well buy a new one right

proud trellis
#

yup

magic gust
weak girder
#

uhhh yes

#

do you have the money tho

magic gust
#

Yeah

weak girder
#

what do you plan to do with this beast lol

#

#

a lot of graphic rendering

#

ik

#

the company is being a bitch tho

#

im not able to get a refund

magic gust
#

I played battlefield for very long but i don't get the performance and graphics on xbox. Plus a lot of games i would love to play are only on pc like Escape from Tarkov

weak girder
#

you don't need that beast of a pc to run games well but you do you

#

32gb ram is a very lot

#

and r9 5800x too

proud trellis
weak girder
#

yep

proud trellis
#

its still in beta

magic gust
#

Oh i know that, i just don't enjoy really playing of xbox anymore and a lot of my friends moved to pc before the new consoles released.

weak girder
#

@magic gust is it your first time building a pc?

magic gust
#

they will help me

weak girder
#

for a first timer I think that build is a bit excessive

#

you can spend a bit less on the cpu and ram

proud trellis
#

the specs that i have rn should be able to run EFT at 1080p

weak girder
#

does it?

magic gust
#

So its less than you think

weak girder
#

is there a huge difference?

magic gust
#

2.8k usd

weak girder
#

but except if your gonna do extreme cpu heavy tasks you don't need a r9 5900x

magic gust
#

wait where do you see this i ryzen 9

#

it should be r7

weak girder
#

oh my bad

#

still a bit much but ig you could

#

its gonna be a huge gap compared to the xbox

magic gust
#

I mean i worked my ass off to get the money and i pretty much have nothing to do in quarantine since half the time the xbox is taken. The pc will last me a lot of years as long as i clean the dust once in a while so if its going to stay in my room for that long i want to make it look good.

weak girder
#

nothing wrong with that

magic gust
#

And i am aware that its overkill for the time being but with the new gen consoles coming out, sooner or later, game devs will make games that won't be held back by the previous gen consoles

weak girder
#

already started

#

2020 games are seriously heavy

magic gust
#

Plus i cba to use a mac for work anymore lmao

weak girder
#

uhhh sure

#

what type of work?

magic gust
#

Just everything in general, its an old model so the fan keeps on blowing hard no matter what app i use

weak girder
#

hahaha

#

macs are cool for work

#

but I wouldn't buy a new one just for work

magic gust
#

I think i bought it like for 3k when it came out. Of course back then its one of the nicest looking laptops but now, i wouldn't buy a mac

proud trellis
#

@weak girder

#

already have ram , AIO and a 1tbssd

weak girder
#

looks awesome

#

you can just remove that hdd on there

proud trellis
#

you think ?

weak girder
#

yeah

#

except if you rly need it

proud trellis
#

then again i can always add a extra ssd later on or something

weak girder
#

yeah

magic gust
#

Whats the issue with the pc you have right now?

weak girder
#

HAHAHAHAHHA

#

a lot of things

proud trellis
#

umm

#

everything

magic gust
#

Sounds bout right
