y'all didn't know gamers were fed through gaming?
we do not need money
we however need gamer girl pee to quench our thirst
wat?
I told you guys a 16c/32t on am4 was coming
You aren't the CEO of Gearbox are you?
But you guys didn't believe me
anyways
"golden showers on minors"
thanks doot
LOL
I think I'll keep that in mind
Lisa Su messed up at computex and confirmed it
we knew it existed, just not the release date
USD 749 though
I was expecting 699 though
But intel has no competition at those prices
Looks like the 12c/24t Ryzen 3900x at USD 499 is a much more appealing deal...
Of course
USD 749 is 50% more but with only 33% more cores
Oh well for the majority of us I suppose the 8c/16t Ryzen 7 3700x at USD 329 or Ryzen 7 3800X at USD 399 is sufficient for the next several years
I wonder if they're gonna market it for gaming
With the price, I wouldn't think so
cuz i can't imagine its faster for gaming
it has a slightly slower clock speed
and an insane price
I think they will though
although its great for streaming and such
"World's first 16 core Gaming CPU"
Yeah would be appealing to those doing dual streaming and recording at the same time
intel has absolutely nothing to counter tho lol
their cheapest 16 core is $1489.99 lol
dafuq
There's the 9900KS but we aren't sure of clocks or pricing
its a 16 core?
Nope only 8 though
ah
So which monitor was I told to get?
It's been a long while since >~>
Ping me whenever someone will respond to this >~<
Alright thanks
That's mine anyway
Freesync
Easy fix
Buy a keyboard and an individual monitor
Plug them in, and close the laptop screen.
It should work
Will the new Windows 10 May 2019 Update increase gaming performance on Ryzen?
Hope so, especially for e-sports and older titles that are latency sensitive but only require 2 to 4 threads (can fit all into a single CCX)
@lost iron @fleet canopy @harsh terrace @hexed horizon @bronze cloak
Let's just ping @everyone for good measure
RYZEN CCX AWAKEN
How dare you ping me. You scum
Dang... 1ms? I don't believe it
Loki
This SHOULD surely help with all those games where Intel is beating AMD Ryzen due to latency
I'ma ping you
Don’t you do it Doot
Games on Ryzen can gain up to +15% !!!
Night Doot 😂

Everytime I hear something about ryzen this year it just gets better lol
Hehe
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/vkqDtg Made some changes o-o
Now at 2.2K
Just like it's always been for 666 years
Oof 1080 ti and a 1080p monitor
Ay does anyone know any AIO's that are above average with performance? i can't seem to find any reliable benchmarks
Yes I know
It seems the monitor is idefk
I could do 1440p 144Hz I guess, but should I?
And I never really experience 1080p gaming yet, so it doesn't really seem a good idea, as 1080 Ti struggles to do well on 1440p
@harsh terrace the only thing I'm not 0% regretting on my 2yo 2k€ build is taking an AIO
my CM 240M is about as powerfull as a very good ventirad (noctua big boi or dark rock pro) while being more expensive
it's still looks good and gives a lot of space around your hot components like ram and gpu
I know that because 2 of my friends and myself took the same cpu (7700k)
1080ti for a 144Hz 1080p sound good, a few badly optimised games runs lower than 144fps on my 1070 (the worst was around 40fps on DoW3, garbage game)
@fleet canopy a 1080ti should run 1440p just fine
And if you want high res and don't mind losing some vram, a 2080 is a tad cheaper than a new 1080ti
mmk
So I guess it's getting a 2080 and 1440p
Which manufacturer for 2080?
Asus ROG Strix?
Oh yeah I'm also gonna be getting a monitor as a present so it might be 1080p 144hz :c
Unless I can find a 2560x1440p 144hz at a similar price of what 1920x1080p 144hz is
I mean, I guess my dad wouldn't mind 100 USD extra
And it'll probably run bad on a 1060 3GB with a 7700K
If it does, at the meantime, i'll still continue to use the 1600x900 I have
Zotac is the cheapest non blower card I believe
Okay time to finally understand watercooling
Well I got the Asus rog strix OC
But I’ll think about your suggestion
And no, I never bought it yet or anything, I just have it on my part list sorry for misunderstandings
Hardold I would suggest going with the Ryzen 2700 cpu instead of the 2700X as the 2700 is also unlocked for overclocking, and unless you need that much more CPU power for extra tasks on top of gaming, it is overkill for pretty much any games you'll run. I have a 2700 overclocked to 4GHz with a Noctua cooler and even in Metro Exodus at Ultra (not extreme) settings with my RTX 2060 I get 120+fps with high ray tracing and my gpu is my bottleneck, my cpu barely goes over 45% in games.
A 2700x is overkill and just extra money for performance that you most likely will not need.
Alright cool
unless you will be using you rig for video editing/processing/editing and simultaneous streaming at 1080 60fps.
I never really learnt or at least know much of AMD CPU’s so I assumed it would be a good choice
you should also be able to get a better performing and cheaper card than the 1080ti in something like one of the RTX cards, or the new GTX 1660 Ti. Less VRAM (11GB to 6GB) but it is a major speed step up from GDDR5 to GDDR6. My friend is getting a MSI Ventus OC GTX 1660 Ti and it has roughly the same performance as my RTX 2060, just no Ray Tracing
I put in an Asis rog strix OC 2080 but belle suggested a non blower so I might get that
def non blower style
my ROG STRIX RTX 2060 has 3 fans and a massive heatsink, my gpu never goes above 64 degrees celsius
I feel I should specify I also only run games on 1080p with my 144Hz monitor. I don't have 1440p to know how that handles firsthand
Also, for ram, should I keep and get that or use my current 2x8 GB ram
32 is really only required for all the extra tasks, like gaming and recording and streaming at the same time. Most games don't need any more than 16GB currently.
unless you like to open like, 20 Chrome tabs lol
lol gg
I’ll reuse my 16 GB ram
G. Skill RAM with 3200 MHz is good for Ryzen cpus, they like fast RAM
do you have an SSD?
(I'm secretly editing your pc part picker build lol)
1 TB SSD and a 250 GB ish SSD
kk, that works
and normally I wouldn't suggest buying a $100 copy of Win10, generally can get it for cheaper from other sites 😛
Of course, but idgaf lol
haha fair enough
Whenever you’re done with edit that pretty much fits, along with the Zotac 2080 non blower, DM it
bam
reduced to $1500 ish
I didn't put the Zotac non blower in that list yet though
just the 1660Ti
give you a prive reference
price*
otherwise there is a Zotac AMP extreme 8GB for $779 from Newegg
I honestly don’t mind the extra money to get that GPU
Yeah
I’m sure it’s not that much different
wait... this comparison isn't the correct model, hold on lol
Asus rog strix OC 2080
Once you have gotten that done, DM it to me since I’m on mobile and I have nowhere to store that list atm
nvm, the Zotac is better actually
Oh, really?
the comparison showed me a 2080Ti ASUS instead of the regular 2080
Oh lmao
Hehe, I sure it doesn’t make much of a difference
all performance benefits, the ASUS is only smaller and narrower for other cases
def go Zotac
?
for the ASUS?
I don't see that at all :/
maybe you have more vendors allowed on PC [art picker
I only allow Newegg, amazon, and Mike's Computer Shop
most others are sketchy af
Ah I see
but I'm also form canada so my options for ordering are more limited
I guess that’s why
could be, just keep an eye on the prices, and where you order it from. Double check reviews for the vendors selling them, might be a scam or just poor quality
Maybe
other than that you're build is good to go to handle basically every game coming out for the next decade lol
your*
I’ll be going now though, take care
have a good one
Cyberpunk 2077 partner with Nvidia for Ray-tracing. I guess they are going to work way more to optimize a RTX over AMD card
I mean the only game that was optimised for amd stuff was division 2. of what i remember
otherwise alot of studios will go for nvidia most of the times.
the new AMD Navi video cards are stated to support Ray Tracing in 2020
neat maybe it'll actually be a useful feature by then
maybe, we'll have to see I guess
Apparently 4 games are made alongside AMD currently: The Division 2, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, Gears 5, and Borderlands 3.
Interesting that an decided to go with ray tracing
When they've had Radeon rays since like 2009 or some shit
Which is just ray tracing but for workstation stuff
Ah
So it's not NVIDIA ray tracing
I'd say it's just the evolution of Radeon rays then
Next Gen RDNA = 2020?
Ugh ray tracing
Yeah can't wait to see their flagship
I'm hoping they go back to the 295x2
I would like to see 2x 5700XT on one PCB using infinity fabric link
That would really shit on competition
I noticed the pc part list has a 650 watt psu
it does, yeah
I have the almost exact psu
EVGA is a good PSU supplier
that should work just fine then with the build
preferably get a G2 but a G3 will be no problem either
good stuff
I think I saw it have G3 on it tho
generally a year old PSU isnèt an issue
Ik it’s better st least
G2 is better than G3, don't ask me why they did it that way
as long as it is Gold+ rated, should be all good
if so then you shouldn't need a new PSU
Now imma check whether to go for a 1440p 144hz or 1080p 144hz
if you're running a 2080 I'd probably try to spring for the 1440p
never hurts to look
EVGA is poor at quality control
I'd never buy another EVGA part again after the 900 series GPUs
The last great thing they did were the classified motherboards
Those were sexy
only thing I buy from EVGA is power supply. They've been known to fail less often than Cooler Master and Bitfenix
the G2 series are considered the best on the markewt
and Corsair PSU's have reports of high-pitch noises coming from them
other than EVGA I'd probably get a Seasonic
So fren needs a pc upgrade
800 Euros, and has to exceed the revealed specs for new Watchdogs game o-o
I’m looking to get an EVGA keyboard, the Z10 is really cheap right now and it seems pretty good. They’re coming out with an RGB version but I’m just gonna get the old red one.
running Watch Dogs Legion shouldn't be tough
not sure how accurate this will be since it's predicted, but this is what I found for recommended specs to run the new Watch Dogs.
Recommended Requirements, Predicted
OS: Win 7 64
Processor: Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz / AMD FX-8370
Graphics: AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060
VRAM: 3GB
System Memory: 8 GB RAM
Storage: 40 GB Hard drive space
this PC build should be able to run it, and it's around $800 US
unless he wants to play it at higher than 1080p lol
sorry, $900 USD* not 800
which should be around 800 euros
that build should let him play pretty much everything 1080p 60fps
unless he has different vendors in UK, some of those parts might not be available to him
That motherboard is way overpriced, you can get a nice B450 board for that
oh probably
depends on his UK vendors though
preferably I'd rather go with x370 or 470 but that's just me
also the tomahawk is one of the best 350 boards on the market, why the price is higher
oh shit
why is the b350 so much more than the same 450 right now? o.0 lol
even cheaper with the 450 now lol gg
also, might be worth waiting for the new line of Ryzen cpus and motherboards
the Ryzen 3000 line is coming out, and the new boards the x570's are coming with them
Eh, X570 looks like it could be expensive, and unless you’re pushing some higher overclocks 4xx chipset boards should be fine with a new bios
I do plan on getting an R5 3600 though
Maybe a 5700 XT down the line
X570 will be more expensive then previous and chipsets
But in saying that, it will probably be cheaper then some.intel boards too
X570 runs quite hot so it needs active cooling
There's already the ASRock meme liquid cooled one for 1000USD
I imagine Asus will have a strix board with an actively cooled chipset (via basic bitch fan) which will suffice quite well for around the 150-220USD mark
good thing the 3000 series works on x470 boards, but the pcie 4.0 on 570s is real nice.
hope they get the heat issue worked out
I wouldn't put a high end 3000 chip on a 400 series board
That's bottle necking like a mofo not to mention that 500 series boards will have 14 phase power for the chips to take advantage of
The heat issue is combination of the 14 phase power and the chipsets use of it
It's not so much a problem as a symptom of the technology
The solution of which is active cooling on the Mobo hich only went out of style in like 2012
as far as I am aware there is a specific BIOS update for X470 boards to allow 3000 series chips that also removes PCIe 4.0, you'll still be able to utilize the cores, threads, and clock speeds of the cpu normally, shouldn't be much different from the current 2700/2700x cpus
to be clear I also only mean this as a means to an end, which is finding a good x570 mobo that has active cooling on it or something. But in the end, obviously this is all more expensive and not really required at all for gaming currently
There is specific bios updates to allow Ryzen 3000 chips to work on a 400 series board
But it's like putting a modern 4 cylinder engine into a Mustang
If you aren't going to buy a 500 series board don't buy anything more then a Ryzen 3600
The old boards just won't keep up with the better chips
You will see bottlenecking between the Mobo and the CPU
The 3000 series chips are designed to run on 14 phase power systems
Or at least designed to take advantage of such power systems
I'd put a 3300 or a 3600 on a 400 board but I wouldn't spend any more money on the CPU then that if I wasn't going to buy a board to unlock it's full potential
oh I agree, which is why I clarified that I'd only buy one of the higher end 3000 series if I was planning on getting a better x570 board in the future to take full advantage of my cpu
but I already built my new pc only about 3-4 months ago 😛 X470 Taichi/Ryzen 7 2700/ASUS ROG STRIX OC RTX 2060
I'm just waiting on GTFO to finally release lol
Not a bad build
Does someone maybe have overclocking advice? I try to get this cpu over 5000mhz.
Outside of having the cooling capacity and power delivery there is no other advice
You could attempt to just get one core to over 5
Ahh, thanks
Can you guys make a build with a 400 dollar budget I bet you can't
can't do less than ~1500 :p
Used to be able to build a decent AMD rig on 400 bucks. Not sure it's possible anymore.
You'll be lucky if you can get a mobo, cpu and RAM for 400 bucks.
I used to game on an overclocked i7 920 with 10gb of ram. Those are still realy cheap XD
500 dollars with AMD APU?
@hexed horizon I can do a build which will be fine at 1080p for 350-400USD
But it would only work if you could buy the parts as refubs
Thats the point
It's easy in America
If you tell me your locale and any PC stores that do refurbs I can help
I can also see if I can get something together with Newegg America and have it shipped over but the shipping is gonna kill it
In Australia and America it's very possible to do what you want
And of course it's made on refurbished parts
Not brand new
Using the 2400G you can make something half decent cheap though
That's on a 2400G
And it would do in a pinch
he's in Hungary
@hexed horizon has a PC, what are the specs again?
Ryzen 5 1500X
8GB DDR4
I got a 1500X, 8Gb, and an OC 1050Ti
When Ryzen 3000 comes out that would swap to a 3300 for the CPU
And then cost about $510
Which would be within reasonable margin of budget
@hexed horizon 's PC seems ok
I know
wait a minute, isn't supposed to be It's a black pug
or Black Pug whom on thin ice
It was 700 dollars tho
Pug challenged me to make a worthwhile build for under 500USD that's all
(challenge Pug to buy a new monitor)
But I refuse!
AOC c24g1
Daka kotowaru

Aunty always said, go to be doot doot
It's 9pm
So I'm gonna listen for once
Catch you all later
sleeping so early?
Yeah I'm fucked from this shopfitting
So I'm having an early night, catch you all later
Where do you guess live? It's 4am here
he is Australian
Ah
@harsh terrace You're either in California or Canada?
Mhm... Computers are a bitch to cool here
nice gals though lol
Unfortunately the good ones are straight ;-;
Not for me... I'm gay
g or l ?
gay or les?
(always thought the term gays only applied to males who aren't straight)
for porn research queries
Lol... ig = I guess
Lol
when you meant unfortunately the good ones are straight - my mind was like "hmmm, if you'd prefer them lesbians, then you gotta be a girl yourself rite?" LOL
(it's not like my username gives it away or anything)
you can't trust anyone online, girls are very rare
and a lot of boys are claiming being girls
you know 1/3 my male online friends have lady nicks, half have lady profile pics, and the rest play lady avatars in-game
look at my profile pic
LOL
Ig lol
@abstract kite gotta vet Rav real real closely LOL
what does that tell about me? I'm a cute bismuth crystal
I meet trans grils more than catfishers tho... So idk
let's get back to the topic
so I got this from AMD reddit
Does anyone know which mobo's will be 3950x ready?
the last Define S2 vision blackout is very nice, if I had to choose a pc case right now it would be this one
No... X570
ofc
oh probs ALL of em right?
I don't imagine the lower end ones will
they'll be available with pcie 4.0, ofc you'll have a different mobo
especially if we were to constrain the 3950X to its official TDP of 105W
I mean... Im gonna oc
No
such accent
Absolutely dumb question cuz I've never had an amd chip or proper desktop... Can you raise the TDP?
Ah... I'm dumb lol
Assuming the chip is ran strictly in accordance to its "usual" / normal mode with no special boosts (e.g. PBO / XFR) or all-core overclocks (e.g. MCE)
But you're planning to get a water cooling setup?
Mhm
that's pricy rite?
(of course if you can afford a 3950x its not?)
custom wc is usualy around 500€
Idk if I'll go custom yet or not
wawie
aio are kinda bastard
Cuz the chip and Mobo are already destroying my wallet
I advice taking one of the best ventirad rather than an aio, it's cheaper and about as effective
(and Nvidia but i have no choice)
Maybe...
Idk...
Doesn't Corsair have a cheap custom loop?
Maybe...
also lowest total lifecycle costing
asides from not requiring a ton of maintenance (open custom loop) or inspection (custom AIO)
Noctua's D-15 is the best, correct?
Yeah something along noctua or dark rock high ends
wonder how good are Be Quiet though?
dark rock vs big noctua are about the same
just a fan on a piece of metal you know
and heatpipes / vapour chambers
Won't the tempered glass choke the air cooler tho? Idk... I plan on getting the the luxe refresh
not heard of that case tho
more exactly, NH-D15S is about the same as a DarkRock Pro 4
are you not tempted by a small cute mini-ITX build?
makes me remember a dumb 1600€ config I made
No I prefer full atx cases
Tempered glass, RGB lighting, long GPUs, full height 160mm tower coolers
(I'm really short, totally not compensating)
- 1600€
- smol form factor
- 10Gb ethernet
- case with handle
- 2060
- 4x raid 0 M2 SSD
the perfect LAN computer
you don't happen to have a first name of Isabella do you?
Isabella's ITX
rhymes
LOL
Lol
UwU
Nah... But I'm going with a full atx... Just because the amount of fans and hard drives I can put in it
the cool thing with raid 0 is that you add the capacity of your drives while also adding the bandwidth
in win are dumb fucks
almost as good as apple
selling you a bent sheet of aluminum for 700€
worst value case EVER
worse the In Win A1 Plus is bent steel
lol
there was a company that makes silent computers... and the whole case is one big heatsink...
Silverstone cases are nice
i wonder if they sell the case separately....
would be expensive though
I know that it's best size, but should I get 24" or 27" on 1440p
It still is 144hz
as I moved from laptop to desktop I found 24" way too big
now after 2 years it's ok but I wouldn't go bigger
Well I was playing on a TV for 2-3 years, and played on monitors before, now I have a 22" monitor
And the PPI will be amazing since it's at 24"
24 inch is comfortable
I prefer 27 because my vision is ass
31 inch
44 inch television
Maybe
Projektor
4K 65"
Projector?
Movie theatre
Maybe
Gameboy color screen
Anyways
24 to 27 inch is loved by many
I guess If I upgrade I'll go with 24
Guess I'll go 24"
does anyone know any high performing cases that aren't from 2013? I can't seem to find a case thats fully built for airflow with some modern features
chiming in late here but I would go for air cooling vs water every time
Very similar temps with a Noctua vs an AIO, and Noctua is quiter than a water pump
quieter*
the case I bought is huge, very open, and has plenty of airflow. But it's a massive full tower with 4 tempered glass panels
room for my 9 case fans though
it's a Thermaltake View 71 TG RGB
way too big to fit on my desk though
blueeeee
(pls ignore my old af chair lol)
b l u e
prpl
I like some purp too lol
i'd love to get that case
but im too weak to even pick it up, much less build in it
CoolerMaster masterbox if I'm not mistaken
They are nice cases
Oh wait no
That's a Thermaltake
@pallid cedar it seems like the tempered glass chokes airflow, at least from what I've been seeing
not with the 5mm spacing between the glass and the plastic
my case has amzing airflow
5mm? That kills airflow
especially with 9 fans lol
it really doesn't
my fans don't spin up above default
my gpu never breaks 62 degrees C, and my cpu (overclocked) only goes to 70
It depends on the case
I can easily fit my fat fingers between the glass and the plastic chassis
lol
lots of air being pulled in
Some tempered glass cases are garbage but the properly thought out ones don't choke it
this thermaltake view 71 has been specially designed to allow great airflow
I can't speak on the other models
But the grills on the front actually allow a heap of air in, and then input 4mm spacers on the top exhaust
It's an Aerocool DS230
They are discontinued now but they were available for about 4 years
yeah my case has 2 fans on bottom to pull air up inside, 3 on front to pull air in, 3 on top to push air out, and 1 on the back to help push air out as well
Due to the generous internal size of the case I was able to mount a fan in the back panel to provide airflow over the CPU socket and back of the motherboard
Plus mount a 5.25" drive bay within it that is accessible from the side
side access is a good thing, my two sides panels of glass are on hinges so they act as doors
Not bad
suuuper easy access
The thing that sold me on this case is that it's got high quality sound proofing lining the insides
Makes a big difference
sound prrofing is a nice touch fo4r sure
my case seems to dissapate sound alright, nothing special
I would disagree but cases are all subjective in the end, get what you like 😃
I would really only suggest my case if you really need the room
it has 2 extra HDD drive sleds that hold 4 extra HDDs, these sleds can be removed for full-sized custom water cooling, and came with 3 140mm Thermaltake Riing fans
@harsh terrace why not go fully open air?
Or even go for a neat test bench style thing
Or even a CoolerMaster HAF XB EVO
They are real great cases
I guess the main question is what GPU and CPU/cpu cooler will determine how ventilated your case needs to be
as well as how many fans are on your cooler/gpu
for instance, my case has 9 fans for push/pull airflow, but 3 fans on the gpu, and 2 fans on the cpu creating lots of air fluidity in the case. Very rarely is there hot air coming from my exhausts
@lost iron i have pets, curious ones... i dont want them attacking the components
eep. if you have pets, try as hard as you can to have a small enough case to keep it off the floor. Pet fur will block your airflow more than anything else.
yeah... although idk if i want test bench style tho
The Evo has so much airflow it may as well be open air
There a also tower haf cases
Haf standards for High Air Flow
They are really really great cases
The full tower weighs a heap too
I can attest to the weight of full towers. Mine with the extra glass is damn near 50 lbs
a half tower is generally all you need
Meshify C isn't terrible
my build is a bit specific with a higher end cpu and large case so I can stream and record footage, and have plenty of space for more storage than I could probably ever use haha
geez that's still a fairly hefty boi o.0
It's nearly legally a 2 person lift before components
lol my case is a 2 person lift just in it's original box and no componwnts XD
Did I ever talk about whether 1440p would be able to run well on a 1060 3GB?
Gtfo could possibly run in 4k with your 1060
Well alright
unless.. it wont
1440 is do-able with a 1060, but not with significant fps
should be able to manage 60 tweaking video options though
I mean, I'll probably just use my 900p monitor if it can't run well on 1440p
I wouldn't say gtfo 4k on a 1060
I also wouldn't shoot for 1440p on a 1060 3GB
But that's because I like my 144hz/fps nowadays
I mean, I don't mind having to go 60Hz if it's needed
I kinda feel like you're trying to run a premium car on unleaded E10 that's all
The 1060 line were only ever designed to be 1080p cards
I reckon if you were willing to put your settings on medium to low you'd probably get a stable 60
I honestly don't mind having to do a lower graphic settings too
So I don't really care whether it looks like a shit looking game
Being on a 15" laptop screen, 1080p/60 is all I ask for... lol
Although Destiny 2 runs at around 70 most of the time on a 1050Ti
So why do you want a higher resolution?
A higher resolution is just to improve visual appearance?
4K!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Or are you wanting one of those jank ultrawides?
at 60 😦
All I care is that my ppi is between 90-100 and my hz/fps is nice and stable at 144
No
LOL
Agreeed
Not into the ultrawide monitors, Doot?
There is no way you could get a decent enough PPI for that monitor and drive it
And also because at this point, 2080 is gonna do pretty good on 1440p
its the absurdity of the idea that
I can appreciate the normal ultra wides to an extent
you're cutting vertical view angle
But honestly ultrawides don't serve much purpose to me as I prefer multiple monitors rather then subdividing one
If one kept a 90 degree vertical FOV, the horizontal FOV on one of those hyperwides must wrap around the sides - extreme warping
I remember when ultra wides weren't stupid
I had a $900 wholesale 2k Ultra wide at my first job
It was pretty ok for work but I would have preferred 2x1080p
I ended up getting a software that allowed me to have windows treat the two halves of the screen as seperate
I mean, I still got my god awful TV and the monitor
If I wanted that hyper-ultra-super wide experience, I'd just need to take a similar priced 50" 16:9 display and letterbox it LOL
This is all the screen I need
Cool
That's a solid setup, Doot
Too bad only a 580 drives it atm
Since my Vega died :(
I tell you what, I'm really sold on these AOC monitors though
Normally I'm not a fan of AOC but these ones are just so good
Am i the only one who doesn't get crazy about ppi? everyone seems to want it
It's a shame the AOC monitors although they have a deisgn to hide the bezelz the screen panel starts so far back
I'm not crazy on PPI Bella
I just was 90-100
al I have currently is a curved 27" 1080p 144Hz curved screen and a 40" 60Hz tv in my setup
And since I'm not going past 1080p that means I will never get a monitor larger then 24"
Becuase then the PPI drops below 90 and if you look closely you can see the individual pixels
You can still get a 1440p for 24"
And then I saw some 1080p for like 22" or something
So?
I just got a 27" from my brother and it looks at fine
I enjoy my 27" 1080p monitor, mostly because going from 40" to anything smaller sucks haha
sure i can see pixels but its not a big deal
Each to their own
I don't like being able to count them so I have 90 PPI minimum
But over 120-130 I actually get ill looking at the screen
So most 4k displays are no good to me and even some of the smaller 2k ones are no good for me
it's mostly all about the refresh rate for me, gotta have that smooth 144fps
Yeah I'm with you there, 144hz with dynamic sync
yessir
yo wtf
this is my first one, the curve isn't too noticable since it's not an extra-wide, but it is a nice touch
wut
lolwut
lemme see
is it under 19" or something? lol
the fu?
Well
crazy
Anything else about it that's strange?
not really necessary, but nifty nonetheless
0.5 ms MPRT
trying to cater to the ultra-hardcore pro gamer niche
"i JuSt GOTta HavE ThAt 0.5ms RespOnsE TimE for MuH k/d RatiO!"
haha in what game?
lol well then
i wanna 240 ips ;-;
idc about a .5 ms response time
Hmm?
It's like the stupidest computer accessory since cup holders in your drive bays
Lemme see reeeeee
$39.99? i'd rather buy a game
It's just a fucking dot point which can centre on 16:9 screens
kek
If it were real, it'd be like 'Hey guys I'm a pro' Shows 0.30 K/D and shitty accuracy
Proceeds to increase it to 4.0 K/D and high accuracy
It's real
Oh jesus
You can actually order them
I dont believe you lol
It's not even a cheat
^
I don't think I can face-palm hard enough
(although my eyes lose focus so i actually cant sometimes. but that thing wouldn't help lol)
LOL
they dont even have "gamer" stuff in the ad's
like they use an office mouse and keyboard
Oh
it has to be a troll
It's not even adjustable
So for games with lower hemisphere crosshairs it doesn't work at all
And they say it on the website too 😂
kek
lol
Gtfo spec ops edition
Ships with 1x game glass
Gtfo limited edition warden emblem etched into the top
Easy
@harsh terrace @fleet canopy @pallid cedar
Yes
i'd buy
i would literally buy anything else lol
Is that real?
Buy the 2060, the real hero of the seriesm
No
Buy the gt1030 with pentium g4400 for cheap moneys
@hexed horizon that thing is real yes
The only thing I can find that suggests it isn't real is that it's stupid
😂
There's also this
They stopped making it becuase people spilled their drinks on their computers
@harsh terrace @fleet canopy
It's a 5.25" drive bay part
Wow
actually wtf
That has a cigarette lighter and cup holder
I want one tbh becuase they are super rare
Yep
I'm gonna need a rug soon
Or else my chair gonna destroy precious wood floor and give me more splinters
I really want to own one
Okay
If we do gtfo secret santa you guys know what to get me
Yes
I'll pay you the difference over the spend limit 😂
Harold have you thought about one of those hard plastic mats?
Well
I can't seem to find proper benchmarks for anything these days
Last time I had one
wth happend
This dude tested a aio cooled video card and a FE card
But he oc'd the card
So he made it look like they had the same temp
why?
Chill ree
All the data is donated by people who use their bench software
It's about as unbiased as it gets
And it's all real world testing, no manufacturer numbers
i thought they didn't do 3rd party cards tho
yeah they dont
i need a benchmark of the same card, but different cooler
so far i haven't seen anyone to do it properly
The way it works is it averages
So say there 30,000 submissions for the 2070
It then averages the 30,000 results
So it's it individual cards no but it's the average result of that card sku
AndAndTech is good
they dont have the card i need
But they don't always get everything
should my take away from this is that aio coolers on video cards are worthless? lol
AndAndTech is good
cuz no one seems to care about em
What are you trying to find data on?
MSI sea hawk 2080ti
Tbh I'd just look for general performance of 2080 tis
The non reference cards often aren't much better then the base ones other then cooling
but thats what i want to know.... How much better are they?
RTX 2080 Ti Click link https://amzn.to/2CifglY for EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti FTW3 Ultra Gaming Click link https://amzn.to/2VRe0xq for EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti...
Theres this
They aren't better enough to justify the price tag tbh
You're better off buying a custom loop kit
And installing it yourself
Or finding one that is compatible with the nzxt AIO GPU mounting frame
And then getting a really good AIO
that card is currently cheaper than a FE
Hmm
but i dont want to add a point of failure if it means nothing
Bella
Maybe wait for a bit
The Super RTX cards are on their way
We still don't know what the range will include
'Launched in blah blah July to stay ahead of AMD'
The SUPER RTX cards will drop the prices of the original
Becuase NVIDIA plan to sell them along side
So basically
Im waiting for 2020 - 2021 to buy something new and if nothing releases ill just buy the new playstation or Xbone
So NVIDIA are still doing the RTX 2070 and the Super RTX 2070
ik... i want a SUPER tho... god that sounds stupid lol
the cards become cheaper
But the RTX ones will be a fair bit cheaper then the super ones
Mmk
@dusty pumice your ryzen 3000 parts launch July 7th
Get your wallet ready for abuse
There's a 1000USD Mobo
It's a fully liquid cooled mobo
@lost iron i know but im stil having trouble getting a good upgrade for my i7700k pc
lol im spending 250 on mine wtf
@dusty pumice dude
You have no idea do you?
The 3300 is on par with the 2700x and 8700k for performance for 99USD
There's gonna be a 16 core 32 threat Ryzen 3000
Im not talking about that
Im talking about getting the I7700k an upgrade
You sound like an excited Mormon missionary lol
You said you want to burn money
This is how you burn money correctly
Just leave the 7700k system alone
Yes
a $1000 mobo is not how you burn money
No
XD
Or the 999$ Apple stand
It's stupid and to anyone else I wouldn't recommend it
But grondus here needs to spend a heap of cash
@fleet canopy I made a tablet stand out of some wood and stained it. $5.
ez
ez
i wonder when we're gonna see them announce the super cards
cuz now we've seen them listed
and we have a general idea of what they are
We all sorta thought they would release them at E3
Over 3000 messages here already
10,800 messages until we have more messages then #gtfo-chat
We can do this guys
I thought they would too
They didn't need a release date... Just announce em damnit
Oh? Didn't see it
Oh wait
No was an old video from rtx launch
But for some reason it's in my new videos to watch
Ah
So are you still looking at a 2080 ti Bella?
Unfortunately
What's the reasoning?
Future proof... Despite the diminishing returns
Or well...
I feel that if you're gonna get a top of line system... It should have the best video card... Even if it costs more than 3 months of rent
Ah yeah
I see
I am not big on having top of the line 😂
But that's becuase I don't earn enough consistent money
Well the scores are in
The Ryzen 3950X beats the 9980XE quite significantly in Geekbench
I don't either... Just won a bet lol
And it's 1250USD cheaper
Nice
My mom wanted me to stop playing games for 2 months... And eh... $500/mo to continue living with my parents
My rent is $2,000 a month and most people expect to pay like $1,600 a month minimum
Ah... That's pricey
