I currently face an unfortunate problem with phasmophobia, where i cant run at full texture resolution... would this be a problem due to the 6gb of vram of the 1060, or the 16gb of system ram

7800xt reviews coming in, haven't watched all of them but it doesn't look that great as first impression.

Yeah they pretty much just re-released the same gpus but more efficient. Which I guess is ok? If energy is expensive that is. AiriShrug

I don't blame em. They're just taking the margins from the gpu oversupply

anyone know of s 3:2 4k 144hz monitor?

#

preferably good HDR and color accurate too

I've been eyeing monitors for a while since I'm not really satisfied with my main one. What do you all think of the AOC AG344UXM?

#

😵‍💫

#

I've considered OLED too but after thinking about it I don't trust the technology enough for it to last a really long time.

Dell does with their qdoled ones but even then I don't think it's worth it. It's just dumb to get something that will end up getting burn in. I do lot of desktop stuff and I play mmos. It's a recipe for disaster.

my uncle got burn in on his Samsung s6 edge only like 2 years ago, so like 6,5 years of playing sudoku on max brightness. and even then a quick burn in fixer app cleared it almost all away

steady bolt
#

Its a real concern here and I don't want to bother with all that stuff

#

I think the tech is really interesting but it still needs to cook and it's why i've been looking at miniLED

Alienwares monitors have fantastic oled warranties

steady bolt
#

I don't care about the warranty if it is going to happen, I do a lot of stuff that remains static on screen and i'm also close to a window so the brightness could be a problem. It's why I'm looking at mini-led. I want something that will last me a long time without any worries. Sure I won't get the color contrast but LCD is tried and true so LaceShrug

I plan on going oled in a couple years

y'know i think we've gotten away from the main question of "What do you all think of the AOC AG344UXM?"

just putting it out there, pretty sure its a ground fault. many times where a spark happens anywhere in my room, usually from my chair or me putting my feet on the floor, my pc gets a gpu driver crash and windows just nukes my gpu drivers and i have to do a clean install of my gpu drivers, DDU aint fixing anything and all it lets me do is use my pc until next time it happens. i have a 5950x, 7900xtx, 32gb ram, x570 gaming-e mobo and corsair x1000psu

#

im fairly certain its a ground fault but its the most stupid ground fault ever cuz it only happns with my gpu drivers...

uuhhhh i need a tiny external ssd with good sustained write speeds (roughly 2GB per second) and big capacity that's USB c and not tooooo expensive

#

and a like tiny short HDMI cable that's 2.0a minimum

bold swift
#

Are you asking people to find one?

candid plover
#

I'm open for suggestions

#

just felt like sharing the high standard that i need just to be able to record proper video

#

cuz it's such a high bar

somber timber
#

for 2GB/s you need a 20gbps usbc port, which is rare

#

10gbps (1GB/s) nvme adapters are standard, and more than fast enough for most ppl

somber timber
#

what capacity do you need?

#

I rec 1-2tb. 4tb is expensive

candid plover
#

2.5GBps

#

don't need it for pc transfer but for video recording

#

if I'm not wrong, the maximum output can reach 1.9GBps

#

with a big B

#

I've been looking at the wd black p40

somber timber

#

no?

#

well not rn but when i get an external monitor i will

#

this doesnt help me , i know what i need i just need help finding a good reliable ssd

candid plover
somber timber
#

if I have more details and context about your situation I can likely better assist you

candid plover
#

my camera has a monitor but it's small and dim, so imma get an external one that's bigger and brighter, and it can record raw, straight to ssd

candid plover
#

dont overcomplicate things

somber timber
candid plover
#

but again, the need is a slim ssd

candid plover
#

why do u need to know what monitor?

#

slim like samsung t5

somber timber
candid plover
#

i mean it just needs to be a normal external ssd dude

#

i know what i need, that not what I'm asking for help with

#

i said my criteria, i just need help finding something that fits as close within those criteria as possible

#

youre making things so complicated for no reason

candid plover
#

@somber timber can you actually help or nah?)(

somber timber
#

I don't like when people are rude to me.

candid plover
#

you act like i don't know anything I'm talking about and side tracking massively

#

you're really difficult to ask for help and get actual help from

candid plover
#

it feels as if you're trying to help yourself more than me

candid plover
#

i can understand asking questions to better understand what someone needs but i literally told you exactly what i need in the very first message

somber timber
# candid plover i can understand asking questions to better understand what someone needs but i ...

I needed additional information to help you. "big capacity" "not too expensive" and an odd requirement begs for additonal context. It's common for people to want the wrong thing, in this case you were spot on but other people will have arbitrary requirements that isn't what they want or need.

The first mesage was insufficient and "external monitor" confused me even more as most of the time one doesn't record from a monitor. Certianly not a specifically external monitor. After you added the context It's directly from a camera it made sense.

#

I will not be helping you again as you are paimfil to extract required context.

candid plover
# somber timber I needed additional information to help you. "big capacity" "not too expensive" ...

external monitor only came up cuz you asked about raw encoded data, the first message included the read write speeds i needed, that it was external, size and a very rough price. more than enough to make a suggestion. you asked many questions that does not help in this scenario. you overcomplicated the task resulting in you confusing yourself. i already know from previous experience directly with you and through feedback from others that youre impossible to get help from because you expect everyone to not know what they want, and you cant read people at all.

#

this is solely on you, i mightve been hostile but that cuz you couldn't take a hint that i knew what i wanted and what i was talking about

#

raw data isnt a problem cuz storing it is like any other file, opening it is the only place that can make for problems, but thats on me and not on you. i have worked with raw footage for years.

My brother is big into VR chat. He currently has a 3070 and an AMD Ryzen 5 1500X and says that he still feels bottlenecked after the upgrade to the 3070 from a 580. Is it worth just upgrading to the Ryzen 7 5800X3D with the current price or does he really need to move to an AM5 platform? That would involve a new CPU, Mobo, and (to my understanding). DDR5 ram since he wouldn't be able to use DDR4 on AM4. Money isn't that much of a problem, but he's not terribly used to building PCs so I'd probably have to rebuild it for/with him if it was anything more complicated than swapping the CPU and installing a cooler(I live 5 hrs away and won't have time this holiday).

Hi, I am new here. I picked up on a conversation about the AM4 X3D CPUs. Both the 5800X3D and 5700X3D would probably cause my mobile VRMs to overheat, but I do not see many gains with the 5700X3D is it gain L3 Cache but has slower stock clocks

(Parts imma buy)
Ram: 4x of 16gb OLOy DDR4
GPU: RTX 4060 3x wind force fans by gigabyte (will be replacing my 3070) purchased!!!
SSD: KingSpec XG7000 2TB ssd PCIe gen 4

I need help with getting PC components, it's the first time I'm doing it using some used parts but I'm having lots of trouble with it

#

I'd like to get a used 4070 Super for less than 610€ (shipping included), on eBay it's very difficult because most of the GPUs on sale are sold with the auction-like system, so I've tried on Wallapop like three times, but sellers either don't send the GPU in time or cancel the order AAAAAAAAAA

#

Does anybody know how Wallapop works or if there's any other good place to get used PC components? linus

Does anybody here know about building custom keyboards? hello

#

I'm asking it because I want to build a low profile custom keyboard with a 75% or TKL layout and 3D printed case and plate, the PCB is gonna be tray-mounted. I found this PCB for 50€ [https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005001790634059.html], is it any good for this price?
