I'll take a sharper image any day, but I'm still using 1080p as it is

stiff rock Feb 10, 2020, 8:26 PM

#

yea i like 1080p, feels about right

sick reef Feb 10, 2020, 8:26 PM

#

1440p is plenty sharp.

stiff rock Feb 10, 2020, 8:27 PM

#

but let's say i want to run a 1440p monitor, would a 1080ti with a good enough CPU manage to run most games at 144 frames? Even by lowering grapich settings?

sick reef Feb 10, 2020, 8:27 PM

#

You can go sharper, but it gets redundant to the amount of frames it costs

#

Ye

#

1080Ti will run them quite admirably.

vapid crypt Feb 10, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

I would consider looking at its performance equivalent with their new architecture, the 2070 Super.

sick reef Feb 10, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

Yeah, but doubt you can find 2070S as cheap.

#

At least until late this year.

vapid crypt Feb 10, 2020, 8:29 PM

#

If you can find a reasonable 1080ti, that works well too. It'll certainly be cheaper

vapid crypt Feb 10, 2020, 8:29 PM

As it should

stiff rock Feb 10, 2020, 8:29 PM

ok last thing, i am aware that the multiple manifacturers have the same GPU, but which brand should i go for if i'd plan on a 1080ti?

#

or.. manifacturer should i say, not sure about the exact term

fading compass Feb 10, 2020, 8:30 PM

#

Make sure you buy a used 1080ti lol.

sick reef Feb 10, 2020, 8:30 PM

#

Beats me. ActuallyHardcoreOverclocking has a video on which PCB each card has.

#

And then which one of those has the best cooling solution can likely be found elsewhere.

vapid crypt Feb 10, 2020, 8:31 PM

#

Most of em are fine, but EVGA, MSI, Asus typically seem to have good cards. There's tiers to their qualities though, but a lot of the time you're paying for an overbuilt cooler

sick reef Feb 10, 2020, 8:32 PM

#

Yeah. As well as that you would prefer the FE PCB, but the 1080 TI has very few PCBs, so it's easy to distinguish from the video.

stiff rock Feb 10, 2020, 8:33 PM

vapid crypt Feb 10, 2020, 8:40 PM

That's what you have to ask about, what the card was used for. There's a level of due diligence when it comes to getting used cards

merry bay Feb 10, 2020, 8:41 PM

Truthfulness is rare on ebay, all things considered. 200 bucks for a 1080ti falls into the too good to be true category. Unless it's an auction

The reference model does make it easy to just slap an EK waterblock on it. Powercolor with EK did make a Liquid Devil, but tbh its like 599. You could go up a GPU tier if you're fine with air cooling as it is in that case. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCZ5vOiVKj4 There's a review of it though

If you're getting a block for custom loop, don't go expensive on it. get Alphacool, EK, or what ever is best, put their regular block on it.

14nm

jade ermine Feb 12, 2020, 12:51 AM

#

basically their next desktop flagship is just 9900K with 2 extra cores slapped on it + improved boost clocks

merry bay Feb 12, 2020, 12:53 AM

#

and it will run hotter than a 9900K because it's the same thing just more packed

jade ermine Feb 12, 2020, 12:55 AM

#

most likely yes

vapid crypt Feb 12, 2020, 12:55 AM

#

10 cores at 5.1ghz allegedly according to leaked benchmarks beats the 3900X... I mean that kind of makes sense then you realize that fucking thing is easily drawing close to if not more than 300w

jade ermine Feb 12, 2020, 12:56 AM

#

meanwhile 3900X is chuggin' 140-150W

vapid crypt Feb 12, 2020, 12:59 AM

#

Game performance won't be that much better comparing clock to clock to the 9900k, multasking and rendering will improve cause 4 more threads... I'm guessing since its beating the 3900x in Cinebench and what not they're gonna try to price it at around the same price point. Yeah Comet Lake isn't very impressive, its what Coffee Lake should have been in the first place. Hyperthreading across the entire stack, and presumably competitive pricing.

vapid crypt Feb 12, 2020, 1:06 AM

They'll have like 2 or 3 months to flex on the 3900x, only to find out the 4800x will absolutely smash the 10900k while being $200 less. I'm assuming they're planning to up the core count as a response, but that's just my guess.

Quick question guys: I am building a PC and will be getting my GPU in the beginning of next month, but I have every other component. I also have lower quality GPUs such as a 720 or 980. Would it be a good idea to but one of those in the PC to be able to put applications on the PC such as Windows 10 Pro, Steam, Chrome... ECT than put in the new GPU when I get it?

I just like getting stuff brand new since it comes with a warranty.

But it's also because I like being the one to pull off the shrinkwrap, bubble wrap, plastic wrap, etc. first.

vapid crypt Feb 12, 2020, 4:40 AM

Everything comes with a warranty, how long depends on the company. Like Arctic has a 10 year warranty for their fans... though tbh with something as cheap as fans I wouldn't be too fussed just buying a new one

I remember getting my prebuilt after upgrading from a semi-performant laptop.

Nowadays, people just talk about 144 and 240 FPS.

granite basin Feb 12, 2020, 4:42 AM

#

My monitor is 60fps and I'm not that concerned with upgrading it any time soon

eternal cairn Feb 12, 2020, 4:43 AM

Same.

#

Plus, the high quality monitors are expensive.

fleet canopy Feb 12, 2020, 4:43 AM

#

144FPS has become more normal and easier to reach, with GPUs being able to do 1080p144hz for cheaper

#

Plus it’s a nice bonus from the 60Hz monitors

granite basin Feb 12, 2020, 4:44 AM

#

While I might get a new monitor, it's unlikely I'll try to run 1440p, the decrease in performance even if it's small would kill me psychologically

1080p 144Hz is fair

Once games start needing a bit more Vram, the age will show

granite basin Feb 12, 2020, 4:45 AM

I wouldn't say that, even a 580 could run 1440p for a suitable life time

vapid crypt Feb 12, 2020, 4:45 AM

Just today, I read on an article that apparently Ryzen 3600 was reaching 85% on some pretty CPU demanding games on some? Sounds pretty stupid though

vapid crypt Feb 12, 2020, 4:47 AM

And yeah maybe I should get a 1440p monitor to run with my 580, it should do fine since I mean... the newest game I've played came out like a year ago phaWesker

It’s really sort of a major advancement in graphics

vapid crypt Feb 12, 2020, 4:49 AM

Its only new so far as a specific method of ray tracing

fleet canopy Feb 12, 2020, 4:50 AM

#

It’s a really neat feature tbh

vapid crypt Feb 12, 2020, 4:50 AM

#

Otherwise ray tracing on its own has been a thing for a long time, the implementation for what you would expect is a bit weird though

fleet canopy Feb 12, 2020, 4:50 AM

#

Yeah, it’s been in like Pixar animations if I remember right

vapid crypt Feb 12, 2020, 4:50 AM

You've seen the Battlefield 5 stuff with the reflections and what not, good lord

#

The fire looks like absolute shit in those renders

eternal cairn Feb 12, 2020, 4:51 AM

#

So, ray-tracing is basically the equivalent of the resurgence of VR?

fleet canopy Feb 12, 2020, 4:51 AM

#

But videogames weren’t really doing it, more likely because it was hard to do without a GPU to handle all that shit

granite basin Feb 12, 2020, 4:51 AM

I haven't had many driver issues personally outside of weird black screens sometimes, and Nioh not working. But those have since been fixed apparently. Though the black screen issue seems to be a thing for 5700 cards I guess

vapid crypt Feb 12, 2020, 6:12 PM

Well not right now anyway

sick reef Feb 12, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

It is recommended to keep those drivers old, until they create stable one's.

#

So, the update before the end of the service life.

#

Or do a Windows and fuck up the entire OS with the last update before end of service life.

#

Like they did to win 7

abstract kite Feb 12, 2020, 6:47 PM

#

The Most Stable Drivers Imo are the 19.12.1

@sick reef that was the point iirc.

jade ermine Feb 12, 2020, 6:54 PM

These new AMD users...
You are supposed to use the oldest possible driver because it has aged the most

FineWineTM

sick reef Feb 12, 2020, 6:54 PM

#

No, it's almost never the point.

As they had given options to people to get a longer service life.

median moon Feb 12, 2020, 6:54 PM

it was their point

sick reef Feb 12, 2020, 6:54 PM

But if it tested, on the other hand.

median moon Feb 12, 2020, 6:54 PM

they wanted people to upgrade

sick reef Feb 12, 2020, 6:54 PM

#

That I very much doubt.

median moon Feb 12, 2020, 6:54 PM

#

so they fucked win7

sick reef Feb 12, 2020, 6:55 PM

#

It's not in their interest if they are supposed to still support the product regardless.

#

And the probably still have to fix it.

#

Otherwise I'd see it as likely as well.

#

But more likely is negligence.

#

They didn't properly test it, most likely.

eternal cairn Feb 12, 2020, 7:06 PM

In all fairness, people had a lot of time to get used to Windows 8/10.

#

Don't know why people still use Windows 7. 🤔

merry bay Feb 12, 2020, 7:09 PM

#

Maybe because win 7 wouldn't forget settings after updates, break as often or have as many obscure issues.
If my chipset had drivers for win7 I'd still use it.

vapid crypt Feb 12, 2020, 7:09 PM

Same @vapid crypt

vapid crypt Feb 12, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

Like even if Nioh worked on it, for whatever reason the driver would just crash when running that game. I went as far back as 19.5.2 I think and it still crashed. That game just hates old drivers or something, or maybe it just hates my card with old drivers I dunno phaWesker

Had RE2R randomly crash the drivers on 12.1 iirc
