[normal hawk]

That's a GT 720

[pseudo compass]

Those graphics card big scary

[lone pond]

Gtx 710

@pseudo compass. Not a epic gamer

[pseudo compass]

😢

[normal hawk]

Says it on the side penguin.

[pseudo compass]

I’m an Xbox gamer

[marsh vapor]

Don’t forget this is a channel for graphics cards

[lone pond]

not pc

@marsh vapor sir yes sir

[pseudo compass]

Can those cards play club penguin on max setting?

[marsh vapor]

If you need go to #general-chat

[normal hawk]

I don't think so @pseudo compass

[pseudo compass]

Bruh

[normal hawk]

They were and still are garbage lol

[lone pond]

R7 can

And 710 too

[prisma mesa]

why do some brands make their cards way more expensive than others?

[lone pond]

Strength

[prisma mesa]

of the card

so like performance?

[normal hawk]

The 710 is worse than modern integrated graphics 😩

[lone pond]

Its dedicated

Integrated are HD gpus

Amd HD 6770 for example

7870 too

[normal hawk]

Vega 8 and Vega 11 are integrated graphics. O.o

[lone pond]

Vega 56 and 64 aint

[normal hawk]

Did I say Vega 56 and Vega 64?

[lone pond]

no, sorry

Does the ASUS ROG Strix Radeon RX 580 O8G Gaming OC Edition GDDR5 DP HDMI DVI VR Ready AMD Graphics Card with RGB Lighting (ROG-STRIX-RX580-O8G-GAMING) support 8K monitor

[limber sequoia]

@fleet egret nope

Polaris GPUs don't support 8K Main10 VP9 (or any Main10 VP9 for that matter) decoding. Your CPU is doing all the work while decoding an 8k video playback.

So I guess technically it will output the image, but it will not decode the stream

[torpid garden]

Spot on - but curious - what kind of use case is an rx580 + an 8k monitor?

[near slate]

I just pulled this out of my dad old gaming pc

Gt 95

[runic trail]

Anyone know some good GPUs that are on sale for a good price because of memorial day?

[pale talon]

Any GPUs that would be on sale for a good price because of memorial day are also on sale for a worse price because of 'rona so probably not

also gonna need to be more specific about what kind you're looking at

there's a biiig market out there

[runic trail]

Under 425$~

[pale talon]

well I got nothing for you mang

[near slate]

1660 ti

[spare relic]

GT 710

[rose agate]

You should see what my dads pc has

He gas a super old alienware

[fleet egret]

Who knows when will the ASUS ROD STRIX RX 580 Be off the backordered list

Or when will they have more products

[stiff jetty]

just bought my first 1660 super pog

[stiff jetty]

poggers indeed

[spare relic]

[arctic phoenix]

yall know how you can bios flash the 5700 into 5700XT?

can you do the same to 5600?

wait

that doesnt exist

nvm im dumb

[sudden dust]

I had to RMA my poor 5700XT probably won't get back till 2 weeks from now sigh

[grand nexus]

which is better 1060 or 1660 super?

[royal copper]

1660 super

[lone pond]

Got a 1660S about a month ago. Very nice.

[rose agate]

I got my 1660 super like last weekend

Its very poggers indeed

[hollow zephyr]

Especially for the price

[obtuse sorrel]

I still like my 2070 Super, but I also didn't spend $500 on mine.

[lone pond]

I honestly want to buy a temp gpu then pass it off to my cousin when rdna2 or something comes out but I don’t have that kind of money rn

[lone pond]

1080Ti ?

[kind wigeon]

@lone pond if you are willing to spend around that price range, I would reccommend a 2070 or 2080, ofc super, because of the newer architecture

1080 ti is way too old

[lone pond]

no

[lone pond]

Question, r5 good with 2060?

[hollow zephyr]

Very @lone pond

[lone pond]

https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-geforce-rtx-2060-super-gv-n206swf2oc-8gd/p/N82E16814932174

Good or bad

[rich oasis]

@lone pond I would more recomend r5 with 5700xy

5700xt

The 5700xt is a better card than the 2060 super

[royal copper]

Depends what you need it for

[foggy oak]

good gpu's for i7 around 400-450

[royal copper]

Between a 2060 super or 2070 super if you can find. For amd 5700 xt

[foggy oak]

i was going to get a 5700xt but just checking if there is anything better for the price

[rich oasis]

If you want to stream go nvida for the encoding

[foggy oak]

ok cool thnks

[pine gulch]

1660 super or 5600xt?
and msi gaming z or gigabyte triplefan?

[hollow zephyr]

Gigabyte triple fan

That's what I got just waiting on parts to put it together

They're drivers are fine now I believe @pine gulch

[pine gulch]

How’s the temps?

[hollow zephyr]

They're should be a video from Hardware Unboxed

I think it's called 5600xt Roundup or sum

[pine gulch]

Alright cool do I need a gpu stand because of sag?

[hollow zephyr]

I don't believe so

The triple fan should be named the Gaming Oc

I thought I had bought the windforce Oc and got a terrible deal bcuz of how poorly it performed compared to the others but think it was the best bang for your buck everything wise including Temps

Plus it had rgb which the sapphire doesn't

[pine gulch]

Yeah I seen

Is it easy to update drivers

Like g force experience

[crisp rover]

GTX 1060 is the best graphics card

[outer plover]

Okay

[pale talon]

1060 sucks

just like the plurality of Steam users that have it

/s

[acoustic ginkgo]

... I have a 1060, because that was what I could afford when I bought this machine four years ago

[lone pond]

I see we have a new troll

[ashen scarab]

Guys, what's better RTX 2070 or RX 5700XT. If I took RX 5700XT, will I face any problems will affect (i.e Temp, shutdown by itself, drivers..)?

Because I've no idea about AMD in my life

[lone pond]

I run AMD for CPU, Nvidia for GPU.

[limpid basin]

Should I get a Asus NVIDIA ROG Strix GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER OC Edition 8GB GDDR6 Graphics Card, PCI Express 3.0 x16, 2x DisplayPort and 2x HDMI

[lone pond]

Unless you really want to pay for the ASUS name, I'd recommend the Gigabyte option. Better Customer Support too.

[mystic shadow]

^

gigabyte gaming oc

[hollow zephyr]

^^^^

[jovial ferry]

I'd pay for the quality of their products and their drivers. I personally don't like Gigabyte, especially for lower end boards. Try Tuf Gaming or Asrock

[mystic shadow]

True tho

or MSI

[limpid basin]

Yea I’m looking at the republic of gamers ROG graphics card it either that’s or 2 MSI - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER 4GB GDDR6 PCI Express 3.0 Graphics Card - Black/Gray

[ashen scarab]

anyone here who is using RX 5700XT ?

[rich oasis]

@jovial ferry I thought that my giagbyte board was pretty quality

but I do have a higher end aorus

[lone pond]

Gigas quality is the same level as ASUS now

[rigid crag]

Graphics cards are the best thing gigabyte makes rn imo

[limber sequoia]

@ashen scarab yes

[lone pond]

My last ASUS was crap, even after 3 hellish RMAs. Was sad that NE has to cover ASUS' rear on it.

Only Giga I ever had issue with was a wonky fan, and Giga sent two fans to replace them, no questions asked.

[jovial ferry]

I got a gigabyte designare which is supposed to be a very nice mobo. Was not impressed

[lone pond]

Newest bios?

[jovial ferry]

Yh, I flashed it

Just the overall look was meh. I hated their software to control the leds and such

[lone pond]

Oh yeah, I will say that fusion sucks hardcore

[jovial ferry]

Naw

It wasn't fusion

it was "Ambeint LED"

Which is much worse

[lone pond]

Huh, haven't seen that one. Haven't had a Designare either though.

[jovial ferry]

Yeah, IDK. Maybe I'd be raving if I got an aurous board 🙂

[lone pond]

My next build is based on the x570 xtreme, unless the x670 happens to come out before, with all this out of stockness

[pallid kite]

I was playing modern warfare last night, and on several random occasions there would be a black blob that would kind of come at me covering my vision, I would have to turn the camera away to make it go away. What the heck was going on?

[lone pond]

0_o Umm, I have, no idea.

[pallid kite]

At first i thought it was a hack, bit it happened on a few maps.

[stiff zodiac]

@pallid kite hmm sounds like u start loosing vision.

[lone pond]

That was actually my first thought.

[pine gulch]

What’s people opinion on the 5600 xt?

[lone pond]

I would go nvidia

[pine gulch]

1660 super?

[granite juniper]

5600 xt is like 15% faster than 1660S

[lone pond]

Yeah I'd go above the 1660S

[wicked hound]

driver issues have mostly been fixed afaik so 5600XT is fine

[hollow zephyr]

W

[limpid basin]

What’s your take on a 2080

Rog

[red oak]

anyone have an rx 570? I jus got one and I’m wondering if it was worth it

[pine gulch]

i dont know that much about it and dont own one but i think the 580 8gb is good value and 1650 super

[lone pond]

The real question is, how long until they break the drivers, again.

[pine gulch]

is the KO good temps and easy overclockable?

[hollow zephyr]

yeah i believe so

how much did u get it for? @red oak

[red oak]

80 dollars brand new

One of the fans was acting funny I’m assuming it got bumped in shipping but I fixed it and everything seems to be in order

I thought a bearing was defective or something but it’s working as advertised

[frozen pebble]

hi guys, now I’m getting stutters randomly when I’m walking and when it comes into intense game fights / shooting it stutters like mad and it takes 4 seconds for my game to get normal? any help? it’s impacting me a lot

Please pm me

[hollow zephyr]

oh thats a hell of a deal then lmao

[red oak]

ye I should’ve waited though because it’s not much of an upgrade from my 1050ti plus I prefer nvidia

[cerulean rose]

I9-9900k or Ryzen 9 3950x?

[outer plover]

This is for GPUs, not CPUs

[dreamy dragon]

MADDEN#2907 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[cerulean rose]

my b

[royal copper]

I like 3950x tho

Slightly less fps in games but just dominates almost everywhere else

[spare relic]

my GPU doesn't use shared/system memory very much, though it shares about 6GB

is there a reason for that??

[granite ice]

i have a budjet of like 200 bucks is the 580 a good card for that price point

[charred spade]

I'd probably go for the 1660 or 1650 super both have better performance

[bitter jungle]

1650 super

[charred spade]

If you rly want amd tho go for the 5500xt over the 580

[bitter jungle]

I don’t see why you’d really want AMD when there’s the 1650s and 1660

[charred spade]

some people are fanatic like that

[west axle]

is it worth selling my msi gaming x 1660ti and paying 200 extra for a 2070

[dense flicker]

up to you

is the $200 extra worth it for you? are you not getting the FPS/Graphical fidelity you want with the 1660ti?

[west axle]

i do but im drop below 60 fps sometime as i play on 1440p

[dense flicker]

what CPU?

[west axle]

3600x

[dense flicker]

alright

2070 will be more suited for 1440p gaming

[west axle]

ok i think ill go for it then

[dense flicker]

nice

[west axle]

also quick question where should i sell my gpu if i have the box and everytihng

and what price do u suggest

i think the retail on the gaming x is aorund 320

[dusk wolf]

For the same price what do you recommend rx 590, rx 5500xt or a gtx 1650 super.

[pine gulch]

will 2060 msi gaming x drop prices soon

because i might get 2060 ko but it wont match will my build

[charred spade]

@dusk wolf if theyre all the same same price id say the 590, but im pretty sure you can get the 1650 super for much cheaper

[dusk wolf]

Okay thx saw them all for 190 to 200 off of Newegg

[bitter jungle]

1650 super gang

1650s amazing value card

[pine gulch]

will 2060 msi gaming x drop prices soon
because i might get 2060 ko but it wont match will my build

[west axle]

yup new gpus are coming but thats september so how long do u wanna wait

might get price cuts sooner but i doubt prices will drop before 2 mobths form now

[pine gulch]

ASUS AMD Radeon RX 5700 Overclocked 8G GDDR6 Dual Fan EVO Edition HDMI DisplayPort Gaming Graphics Card (DUAL-RX5700-O8G-EVO) https://www.newegg.com/product/N82E16814126348?m_ver=1

Is this good

70 dollars off

[bitter jungle]

You could flash it's bios and get 5700 XT ish performance

[pine gulch]

Is 5700 over 2060?

[arctic phoenix]

yes in terms of pure performance

[west axle]

and the xt over 2070?

[arctic phoenix]

ye

5700xt ~ 2070 super

[west axle]

can a 5700xt give me a consistent 120 fps on any game with ultra settings on 1440p?

[lone pond]

radeon still makes graphics cards? lol

i think the 2070 super is better ❤️

[rigid crag]

Ya they still make cards lol...

And I say a 2070 super edges out a 5700xt a little but obviously it comes at a cost

In response to the 1440p question, that would be about the max it could push. I think 120 would be the highs but might dip to 100

[pine gulch]

Hey I got 300 budget should I get msi gaming x 1660 super or 2060 ko
Ko looks ugly and won’t match my pc

Hello! quick question

[heady elk]

You can DM me. I can see if I could help with your question

You get permissions relatively quick, just by chatting

[hexed forge]

you have to be level 3 to post links and pictures, you can have someone else post on your behalf until then

you can check your current level by going to #ranks-and-levels and typing !rank

Thank you!

You can input your CPU to see how it affects your FPS

https://www.gpucheck.com/gpu/amd-radeon-rx-580

[arctic phoenix]

[heady elk]

That's a good site to see how individual GPUs perform. If you want to see more benchmark numbers, here's another site you can use: https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html

[arctic phoenix]

tysm i basically mostly used userbenchmark didnt know that these existed

[heady elk]

Np

[next nest]

i have a rx 570 what should i upgrade to

[rich oasis]

@next nest whats the budget?

and whats the cpu?

[next nest]

r7 2700

[rich oasis]

ok that'll work fine

[next nest]

around 300 probably

[rich oasis]

rx 5700

but if you can wait till september wait

[next nest]

yh

[rich oasis]

and if your streaming

go nvidia

2060

[next nest]

thats what i was thinking of getting

[rich oasis]

for gaming go rx 5700 for streaming go 2060

[next nest]

ok

do i go for the super or not

[rich oasis]

well if you can afford the super

[next nest]

alright

[rich oasis]

but if you can afford the super the 2060s the amd option is the 5700xt which has better performance

but again if you want to stream go nvidia

And if you can wait for a few months wait

[next nest]

well is the rx5700 ment to be the direct competitor with 2070

[rich oasis]

ye and but more performnace

the amd counter parts have more performance

for the price

[next nest]

yh

i know that the rx 570 is better than the gtx 1650 in performance so thanks for the advice

There's a 1050ti video card for sale if anyone wants one.

[fallen schooner]

is that your ebay account

100dollar starting bid for a 1050ti isn't a sale.

[spare relic]

I always sort by Buy It Now :)

me 99.5% rate 2000 stars

so i can feel good buying it xD

[crude widget]

is a rx 580 still good? im deciding between a 1660 super or a 580 or 570

its my first pc and im not trying to go super expensive

[spare relic]

I'd personally go for this https://www.newegg.com/zotac-geforce-gtx-1650-super-zt-t16510f-10l/p/N82E16814500485

if you're wanting something smol

not at 175 dollars though, 15 dollars too much imo

160 would be ideal for that card

[crude widget]

I just want something decent

[spare relic]

it'll be pretty good :)

[crude widget]

alright thanks

[lone pond]

im having trouble deciding between a 5600xt and a 5700xt, i plan to be doing high refresh 1080p gaming, and i might upgrade monitors in the future as 1440p becomes more budget friendly. which one should i get?

[rich oasis]

5700xt

[spare relic]

5700 with bios flash 👀

[lone pond]

why do i ned bios flash over the xt version?

[spare relic]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

people have been saying you can bios flash a 5700 to a 5700xt

[bitter jungle]

Yeah you can

[lone pond]

OR should i go with a more budget card and wait for ampere

[hollow zephyr]

@lone pond there's going to be a sale on the gigabyte gaming 5600xt if you want to wait until tomorrow

It'll probably be less than $280

[lone pond]

thank you

[hollow zephyr]

And they've updated the drivers in a way where it'll be stable so I wouldn't worry too much about the reviews even if they're recent

Most of those people probably just downloaded the wrong driver update

[lone pond]

oh ok i was confused if i should get it because of the drivers i heard abt but thats good to know

[pine gulch]

do I need to uninstall old drivers if I get a new gpu

[ember imp]

That’s always a good idea

[granite juniper]

ddu it and install the new drivers

[stone dirge]

for GPU overclocking is it better to run Curve or an offset number on MSI Afterburner?

better

for future upgradability with bios flash and 5700 is just a better card

for 10 more dollars

[near slate]

the thicc hass a $20 off rebate to it would be 300

but ye ill look into this

[granite juniper]

if its a mail in rebate i dont really count them, they take months tho and are a pain in the ass

[near slate]

no its with a promo code

[warm coral]

anyone have any experience with the "video_tdr_failure" blue screen using one of the new amd cards? I got a 5500 a month ago and been having the issue at random ever since and its supposed to be a driver issue I think, was wondering if anyone has a fix?

[waxen stag]

The rx 5700xt pulse is a good one ? It's 100€ cheaper than the nitro + in my country

[slim mantle]

160 would be ideal for that card
@spare relic you can get the 1650 super for $160 in amazon. I can DM you the link if you like.

[loud ledge]

Where do you update a Colorful 5700 bios at

[loud ledge]

@torpid garden do you know i think already asked sorry if i did

[torpid garden]

I'd google it

[granite juniper]

@waxen stag yea pulse is a good card, not top end like nitro and red devil but still a great cooler

[outer juniper]

There any cards I could upgrade from an RX 580 to that would be a decent upgrade for around $200?

[granite juniper]

you could sell the rx 580 and get a rx 5600 xt which is like 40% faster

[outer juniper]

yeah i could do that

[vocal sonnet]

Hello, I bought a graphics card from Asus 2080 ti and when I play a game like Fortnite and Call of Duty the card makes a disturbing sound

The screen card arrived yesterday

Graphics **

Sound like buzzing

[rich shard]

probably the fans running faster to keep the gpu cooled

[lone pond]

@HERO#9073 if it is buzzing, or a scree'ing sound, it could be a lack of power from the psu or a psu with a bad ground. The more your gpu is under duress the more it would become aparrent

[vocal sonnet]

@lone pond DO THINK THE PSU IS THE PROBLEM ?

[waxen stag]

@granite juniper Ok and what about the xfx rx 5700 xt

[waxen stag]

Then we have several models from msi..

[lone pond]

you can get a new GIGABYTE Radeon RX 5700 XT GAMING OC 8G on ebay sold by newegg for 370 rn, im buying one myself

For the same price

[lone pond]

So when will amd get a "ray tracing" like feature

[lone pond]

technically, you can get ray-tracing like featrures on some games rn without a RTX gpu

like mc on java edition with SEUS

Cool

[granite juniper]

next gen navi is supposed to have ray tracing

@slim mantle I can't buy it right now, let alone afford it :/

I found the same price on B&H though, so I'll have that bookmarked for when I could possibly buy it

[hollow zephyr]

[slim mantle]

same here, but right now I'm so broke.

[kind wigeon]

lmao

[sullen merlin]

I still have a spare 1050ti low profile, rip

[lone pond]

@vocal sonnet depends, what is your psu? wattage/brand

[compact fjord]

Looking for another piece to upgrade my pc, and i currently have a gtx 960 and my motherboard is the Gigabytre GA-990FXA-UD3, and im looking at the RTX 2060 6GB to upgrade it for my budget. My question is will it fit the motherboard?

[heady elk]

In terms of physically fitting, like dimensions-wise?

@compact fjord

[compact fjord]

That, and just wondering if it would work for said motherboard. I've built it in 2015, and have been hesistant to upgrade

[arctic phoenix]

is your case large enough?

check the case manufacturer website

[zinc cedar]

Hello. I'm not sure what type of GPU to choose. Should i go with a RTX 2060 super or a RTX 2070

[rich oasis]

@zinc cedar go with a 5700xt unless your streaming

[zinc cedar]

Yeah i'm planning on streaming

[merry rune]

thinking about upgrading my 4gb rx570 and wondering if it's worth going all the way up to the 5000 series, or look at something like a used rx590 8gb. budget is around $150-200 or so, paired with an r5 2600, 16GB ddr4 3000

[spare relic]

should probably wait a while, build up a higher budget, and get something like a 2070 Super or 5700/5700xt

[merry rune]

that wouldn't be too much GPU for my 2600?

[spare relic]

maybe

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[merry rune]

lol, fair enough

i mean, i'm all for going bigger and better

i just don't want to flip the bottleneck from one side to the other

i'll hang on a bit and just set aside some extra cash either way

doesn't hurt to pad out the PC savings account

[spare relic]

maybe 5600XT or something like that

2060S?

[merry rune]

i'll look around a bit and see if i can find any solid numbers for any of those, try and narrow down my options a bit

i have a personal preference towards amd, but i'll go team green if it's a solid deal for solid upgrade

[loud ledge]

Does colorful have discord?

[granite juniper]

pretty sure they dont, if they did id imagine it would be under their social media

[livid heron]

I’ve got a question. I’m upgrading my rx 580 and I was wondering if I should go with the rtx 2070 (non super) or the rx 5700 xt

[granite juniper]

5700 xt has better performance, but you lose features such as ray tracing, nvenc encoder for streaming, and the 2070 has slightly more stable drivers

[livid heron]

What about for vr and 1440p?

[hollow zephyr]

it should perform well

[livid heron]

Like vs the 2070

[hollow zephyr]

its not far behind

the 5700xt is more in line with 2060S

but i'd choose a 2060S over a 2070 if ur going nvdia

you're saving $50 for slightly less performance from the 2060S to the 2070

[granite juniper]

wrong photo

yea now that there are 2060 super models under 385 and one at 370 its a better value, but if you can get a decent cooled 5700 xt its almost as fast as a 2070 super

[hollow zephyr]

so it really depends on what you're doing

amd drivers should be fine now

[granite juniper]

yeah they've gone from being a gamble to 99.4% stable

[hollow zephyr]

and you could possibly get a 5700 and flash it into a 5700xt if ur trying to save money

[livid heron]

Okay

I’ll probably get the 5700 xt

[hollow zephyr]

get a sapphire nitro

[charred spade]

Red devil is also nice

[hollow zephyr]

that one too

its sexy frfr

[brave thistle]

1050ti is a better card!

[mild hollow]

hey

guys

does this page sell external graphic cards

??

i couldnt find them

[livid heron]

Wait what?

I don’t know if the discord server can sell anything. Just go to Newegg

[royal copper]

no selling in this server please

[balmy magnet]

Newegg does have external graphics cards/boxes listed on the site

[rapid herald]

When is the 3000 series rumored to come out?

[mild hollow]

I know its not to sell here i was talking about the site

[wary anvil]

3000 should be sometime in the fall

[merry rune]

@mild hollow you mean like an egpu enclosure? like a razer core x or something?

[hollow pumice]

Any update on ampere series cards?

[wary anvil]

They're available for server side, none yet for consumers

[arctic phoenix]

I need help testing a used rx 580 I have a system that I could test off of, with working configs but with a 1660 super what programs to uninstall/install before installing the card?

[steel nest]

What is a good upgrade from RX 590?

[heady elk]

https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html

[steel nest]

My system has 16gig ram and Ryzen 5 3600 of and i think my rx 590 is bottlenecking it

[heady elk]

Through that link, you can see the general benchmarks for tons of graphics cards

[steel nest]

Ok thanks

[heady elk]

Np

[mild hollow]

@mild hollow you mean like an egpu enclosure? like a razer core x or something?
@merry rune yessir

[merry rune]

lol i can't link to newegg in the newegg discord

[clear vault]

is there somewhere to see how hard my ryzen 2700 is bottle necking my 1080ti? taichi x470, ddr3000 16g

[merry rune]

@mild hollow just search for 'egpu' on newegg, i found 4 products in the first row of results

[royal copper]

rookie can't send link sorry, need blue name lvl 3

[merry rune]

aha, ok

linking would have just done all the work for him anyway, so that's fine

[mild hollow]

@mild hollow just search for 'egpu' on newegg, i found 4 products in the first row of results
@merry rune thanks i will

[lone pond]

Does anyone know the best budget graphics cards?

[merry rune]

depends on your budget, but my kneejerk answer is something like an 8GB RX 570/RX 580

if you're ok with used, you can find a 570 for probably like $100-120ish, maybe less for a 4GB

[hollow raft]

Even a new 570 is $120

[wintry imp]

Hey does size for gpus matter? Like a single fan vs a dual fan, which one would perform better

[hollow zephyr]

dual

[brisk flame]

As long as the card stays under like 80C, they all perform the same

[hollow zephyr]

lol my b

my b

[brisk flame]

Of course, some third party cards do come with a factory oc

So that would cause more of a perf difference

[hollow zephyr]

uhm yeah as long as the design is fine single would be fine if the temps are goos

*good

[brisk flame]

AND the dual fan card would probably keep your GPU cooler, giving you slightly more thermal headroom to oc yourself

But, just look at GN or other YouTube reviews of each card and make your decision

[wintry imp]

https://www.amazon.com/ZOTAC-GeForce-192-bit-Graphics-IceStorm/dp/B07NMWYLRZ/ref=sr_1_13?dchild=1&keywords=GeForce+GTX+1660+Ti&qid=1590799488&sr=8-13

do you guys think that one would be good?

[hollow zephyr]

svae ur money and get a 1660super

you'll have hardly any performance differences

for a lesser of a price

*for lesser

[wintry imp]

alright

bruh wth i just checked out the benchmarks and the 1660super is only like 5 fps behind and around same temps

[hollow zephyr]

yeah exactly

i was released a little while back so yeah

the ti is a scam

[wintry imp]

is hdr important for monitors?

sorry for so much questions

[hollow raft]

Depends on what you're doing

with the monitor

[wintry imp]

gaming

[stiff zodiac]

yes hdr is nice

[wintry imp]

what is it good for?

[stiff zodiac]

you can search it on yt

movies & gaming

[hollow zephyr]

Adds a little pizzazz

[kind wigeon]

lmao my friend just ran benchmarks between 2080s and ti for the first time and was so shocked when putting together parts for his list

[south cedar]

So im thinking of buying either a gtx 1080ti for about 420 dollar or a rtx 2080 msi x trio for about 500 dollar. What should i get? Have been saving for a long time and im upgrading from a rx580 nitro+. Thankful for any help i can get.

[stiff zodiac]

2080

[granite juniper]

for value i'd go 1080 ti, it has equal or better performance than the 2080 if you can live without rtx features, or wait until next gen

[hot thistle]

how much should i sell a slighty used gtx 1060 6gb. pheonix edition?

[spare relic]

Idunno but personally I wouldn't buy a 1060 that's 160 USD

Idk if that's a truly reasonable stance, but the 1650 Super can be had for 160 so

[hot thistle]

i need money to upgrade my pc that i got 2 years ago but selling the card is so hard cuz idk what price and where to find people

[fiery mauve]

Hello guys would you recommend getting a 2080 super now or should i get a 1660Ti ROG i found one used for 255$ like new and wait for RTX 3000 ?

[hollow zephyr]

idk

uhm you could a brand 1660S for sorund the same price and use that

**for around

in the meantime and wait

[fiery mauve]

a 1660s in my country is the same price as 1660ti new and the same as used do u think a 255$ tag is good for the ROG edition ?

[hollow zephyr]

idk just run the risk of not having a warrantly

**warranty

if you can get one then by all means

[fiery mauve]

Don’t really need a warranty I’m only going to use for like 3-4 months till 3000 series comes out then I’m gonna sell it

[spare relic]

Just wait 4 months

[hollow zephyr]

yeah honestly

unless you got like an unlimited budget lmao i'd wait and use the extra $250 on the new cards

[normal hawk]

^

No point in buying a card to sell it 4 months later

[hollow zephyr]

yah

[normal hawk]

And finding a someone to buy it where you get a decent amount back for what you spent when the new cards come out will be a bit rough.

You're basically throwing away 70-80$ for 4 months.

[jovial ferry]

Unless you find an awesome deal. Can sometimes flip for a profit. Especially with COVID driving up prices, if you can get one for super cheap there's a good chance you could make a few buck re-selling on eBay

[fiery mauve]

The thing is i might not loose much or lose at all when i sell it i live in Saudi Arabia a New GTX 1660Ti costs around 340$ for a gigabyte 1 fan not a top tier card like the ROG Strix with RGB and buying it for 255$ i thought it might be good cuz at the beginning of july the VAT ( tax ) will rise from 5% to 15% because of corona and it affecting the economy and the prices will be higher so i think it might be good deal selling it after 3-4 months when the 3000 comes out and won’t let me loose alot of money maybe at maximum 20$ and I already saved around 750$ for the upcoming 3080

[river forge]

for a $450-$500 build is a 1650 super the right choice or should i be looking at deals for a 1660 super instead?

[hollow zephyr]

1650S is a good deal imo

[river forge]

thx

[hollow zephyr]

i do but its still in the box

@river forge i would go with a 3100 or a 3300x for the cpu

[rich oasis]

@hollow zephyr 3300x if you can spare the money the ccx layout is more efficient

[hollow zephyr]

oh yah ik but its kinda hard trying to fit than in a $500

i built one using pc part picker but i utilized storage so went with a 2 tb hdd instead of a smaller ssd

[granite juniper]

its a lot cheaper to add storage than to upgrade ur cpu later

[hollow zephyr]

trueeee

so smaller ssd

but an nvme or nah?

[charred spade]

the performance gain of an nvme over a decent sata ssd isnt that noticeable, what'll make a decent difference is if whatever drive you get has an dram cache, Crucial offers a 500 gb sata ssd with a 512 mb cache for around 50-60 which is a rly good deal

[wicked hound]

Except that a decent 512gb NVMe is $70 which is MP34, cheapest decent 500GB SATA is T-Force Vulcan which is $57

barely a price difference anyways

Crucial's cheapest 500GB SSD, BX500, is $60 and doesnt even have DRAM cache

[rich oasis]

@wicked hound their nvme p2 I got for 60 hucks

Bucks

Also the bx500 works for me fast game loading times and I got it for 70

[lone pond]

Guys how do I sync the ROG GPU with ICUE

[shell mason]

@lone pond from what I've read, you can't connect it to iCUE

I would just download asus' software and control it from there

[fast plaza]

hi, does the 1650 have a power pin connector?

do all of them not hace one?

[rigid crag]

I dont know of a 1650 that requires a pcie power cable

[balmy magnet]

looking at a Zotac 1650 there is no power pin connectors visible

[wary anvil]

At least some of them will have one. Some of them also might be able to pull all of they're power off the PCIe bus, so it's hit and miss

[granite juniper]

1650 run of the pcie power, they dont need the 6/8 pin

[river forge]

thx kisuske

[mystic shadow]

@granite juniper some

Only

The Ventus oc, for example, don’t need it

[normal hawk]

Which one has a one? 🤔

[mystic shadow]

For example, have one

[normal hawk]

Ahhh

Actually why buy a 1650 now? 1650 super is the same price

[granite juniper]

the factory spec doesnt need power connectors, they could all run without the 6 pin but they put it there anyway https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/graphics-cards/gtx-1650/

[normal hawk]

@fast plaza are you buying a 1650? How much are you paying?

[fast plaza]

Nah, I was just interested

[normal hawk]

Ah okay lol

1650 super can be picked up just as cheap from Zotac, gigabyte, msi, and a few others unless you're buying used probably.

[pine gulch]

Yo

Can someone explain this

Why does some games pro form better,

@fast plaza

[bitter jungle]

Userbenchmark is a terrible tool to compare

It’s doesn’t give good results most of the time

@pine gulch

[pine gulch]

Okay thank you

I might just for 1660 super

Can you overclock it with msi

[brisk flame]

Yes you can oc any GPU with afterburner

[pine gulch]

Will it break my card

If done wrong

[royal copper]

msi afternburner has safe guards so it is not as dangerous as overclocking a cpu

[rich oasis]

could aways look to the used market

[royal copper]

just bump up clock speeds in increments, not +500MHz 😛

also there should be overclocking guides pinned in #overclocking

[pine gulch]

okay thank you kind sir

https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-GTX-1660S-Super-vs-Nvidia-GT-1030/4056vsm283726

sorry

whats good site?

[bitter jungle]

Watch Youtube videos

[royal copper]

lol

[rich oasis]

You could just see 3dmark scores

[pine gulch]

what a 3dmark scores

[granite juniper]

it’s a benchmark for systems where you can compare scores

[hollow zephyr]

^^

[gloomy fiber]

@pine gulch Radeon and Nvidia cards perform differently on different games

The 5600xt has more performance overall

[pine gulch]

YES BUT ALSO NO RGB @gloomy fiber

[gloomy fiber]

[arctic bloom]

Hi, I'm looking to get a new gpu and I was wondering how safe it is to go with a 5700 or an xt since I've been hearing a lot of people have been having issues

[gloomy fiber]

It's the vocal minority that gets driver issues, most are fixed now, but there's still a low chance it happens to u

[wary anvil]

AMD has less driver issues than nvidia from my experience

[charred spade]

I've had a 5700 xt from launch, it was a little bumpy in the beginning but Finalmouse is right in the last 3-4 months I havent had much if any issues with drivers, and it performs great

[hollow zephyr]

@pine gulch you can find cards with rgb lmao

[pine gulch]

Not for price as I have the price limit yes

[hollow zephyr]

you aint need rgb on the gpu lmao

as long as you have it everywhere else

[pine gulch]

not TRUE

[hollow zephyr]

lmao yeah

most cards hardly have any rgb on them

its not like ithey cover the whole card

**they cover

i'd rather have the rest of my parts glow and get poggers performance

my 5600xt was only $280 with tax and has rgb

[rigid crag]

@dense flicker sry to ping, but what vertical gpu mount do you have again?

[dense flicker]

i have the phantecks cable

my case has a spot built in

[rigid crag]

You recommend it?

[dense flicker]

yes

phantecks good brand

[rigid crag]

Alright cool

I'm looking at my options

[mystic shadow]

@rigid crag since when do you not have a purple name tag?

[rigid crag]

Since I stopped paying for nitro lol

Like 3 days

[gilded roost]

Does anyone know if GTX 3000 series will be PCIe 4.0?

[wicked hound]

maybe, doesnt really matter except for like quad GPU setups tho

(running each GPU in x4 gen4 instead of x8 gen3)

[rigid crag]

There's no way to know the performance of the gpus now, also considering that current gen gpus don't even fully utilize pcie 3.0 it doesn't really matter

[wary anvil]

I believe they will be. The server side ampere GPU's are

[pine gulch]

YO

how do i find discounts

[gilded roost]

I did not know gen 3 was not fully utilized. Thank you all for the insights.

[hollow zephyr]

@pine gulch wym just look lmao

[wary anvil]

Most games don't fully utilize gen 3, but you actually can hit peak transfer if you're doing a lot of loading/swapping of resources

[hollow zephyr]

i'd be happy to help :3

[wicked hound]

2080Ti just barely utilizes x8 gen3

on average

[rigid crag]

Pcie 4.0 only really matters for crazy storage solutions

[wary anvil]

Depends on the load. It is capable of saturating the bus when it's swapping memory

[wicked hound]

Which you dont really see much intensive memory swapping in games

[wary anvil]

Yeah, but for data processing it happens all the time. Moving to gen4 would be an amazing boost to data scientists

[rigid crag]

But for the average user its essentially non beneficial

[wary anvil]

*average gamer

[wicked hound]

waiting until Nvidia resurrects SLI with their "view many GPUs as one GPU" stuff they're looking into and then do quad SLI

probs wait 30 years or smth tho

Also note, average GPU user is either for office work (iGPU) or games basically. So average user is accurate

[pine gulch]

@hollow zephyr which websites

[wary anvil]

A lot of high end GPUs go to data processing and video editors, both of which would benifit from a higher bandwidth

Also, with the high poly resources UE5 is able to use, loading will require a lot more data to be transferred

[wicked hound]

Im sure a lot do, but idk if it really outweighs the entire consumer GPU market

[wary anvil]

Look at the DGX A100

[wicked hound]

yes, but look at phones, office computers, home computers, gaming computers, etc

[wary anvil]

Nvidia is targeting high end. The people that require the most GPU compute aren't gamers anymore

Yes, they'll continue to make a large portion of their profits from high volume low spec products, but there are people that will pay good money for bleeding edge

[wicked hound]

I also doubt that people would want 1440p@30 fps on a semi high end GPU in a demo... Basically best case scenario for a game scene. So while the demo is cool, it's still far away. Esp considering there'd probs be more on disk compression due to "film quality" assets and thus increase initial loading times already which many dislike

[wary anvil]

The demo was running on a console with the current gen GPU. Next gen desktop will do better. Faster storage and bus will get rid of most of the loading time issues

[wicked hound]

yes, semi high end current gen GPU

only gets 1440@30

cool tech, but still far away

from being in a game

[wary anvil]

A year or two

[wicked hound]

bit more then that

4 - 6 years absolute min

[obsidian tapir]

how can i send a pic?

[wicked hound]

need to be lvl 3

[wary anvil]

A also checked nvidias profit reports... Only 53% of the profits come from gamers

[obsidian tapir]

ok i need a help

[wicked hound]

Yeah, but that doesnt really give much info on the entire GPU market

[obsidian tapir]

intel Core i7-9700KF Coffee Lake 8-Core 3.6 GHz (4.9 GHz Turbo) LGA 1151 (300 Series) 95W BX80684I79700KF Desktop Processor Without Graphics is OUT OF STOCK
Is there someone who knows when it will be there?

[wicked hound]

Well cant really tell the future and 10th will be prioritized

[wary anvil]

Though supply chain is a bloody mess right now

[wicked hound]

shipping is a large issue for many

[wary anvil]

Also note that gaming sales increased 48% and datacenter increased 186%....

Look at the whitepapers.... ampere wasn't designed for gamers. It was designed for data

[wicked hound]

I get all that, but does that state much in the entire amount of GPUs from all major companies in phones, PCs, consoles, etc vs the datacenter market?

[wary anvil]

This is nvidia we are talking about. They don't have GPUs in phones and only a few in consoles

[wicked hound]

This stemmed from the "average user", not really "average Nvidia user"

[wary anvil]

It stemed from whether pcie gen4 would be useful on the 3000 series

[wicked hound]

I guess, tho another point to make is, can amount of GPUs really be easily found from market share? Say like 11k market share (really small, but just for basic example) that is 50% to gamers and 50% to datacenters. That is one Quadro 8800 to four 2080Ti+2060S for example

[wary anvil]

Which has the bigger profit?

[wicked hound]

8800, but which has more users?

[wary anvil]

Doesn't matter

[wicked hound]

it does, as that influences "average user"

[wary anvil]

Let's be honest, average user probably has something like a 1050 or a 1060

[wicked hound]

probs

1060 I think is still biggest in Steam survey thingy. But that is a secluded market

[wary anvil]

They don't care because it will be forever before they get anything new. Data centers are upgraded every year or so

There's enough request for gen4 and the dies are already gen4, so nvidia will lose nothing and gain mych by making them gen4

[wicked hound]

not disagreeing with that. Nvidia will make a fair bit from gen4. But I do have a hard time feeling like the total amount of consumer desktop GPUs is outweighed by datacenter GPUs

unless you meant "average Ampere user"

to which now I think I understand what you meant

[wary anvil]

Do you realize just how big datacenters are? Maybe there aren't volumetrically more GPUs, but when it comes to raw computational performance I believe the data centers win

[wicked hound]

More then likely yeah. Tho "raw computational performance" isnt "average user" so it wasnt the point I was trying to make or look into much

[wary anvil]

Yeah, I was more thinking average based on how much nvidia was making off of them

To be fair, gamers don't really need that much more power than they have now. It's mostly how cheap that power can be made

In games, high power is a luxury. In data, it's life and death

You had mentioned 4 way sli earlier.... For games that seems incredibly powerful

For a company or researcher, that's bare minumum

[hollow zephyr]

@pine gulch just look on wheever you buy parts at

and check out for updates on prices and such

like coupons or rebate cards'

[wicked hound]

yeah, 4 way SLI in data stuff is quite small. I at least know that

And the gpu rtx 2080ti asus 11gb

Why i get buzzing sound and drop fram all the time

[lone pond]

970gang

[glad nova]

@vocal sonnet did you build your pc or you bought a prebuilt pc ?

[bitter jungle]

@vocal sonnet in what games are your frames dropping that low? Are you playing at 1080p, 1440p, or 4K?

What temperatures are you getting while gaming?

[vocal sonnet]

@glad nova i build my pc

@bitter jungle i plsy with 1440 or 1080 p for temp i get 60

[bitter jungle]

@vocal sonnet what game(s) are you playing when this frame drop occurs

[vocal sonnet]

@bitter jungle call of duty mw2 and fortnite \ before i get the rtx 2080ti i have gtx 1080 and i do not have any problem but now i can't stream our play any thing with this drop >>>!!!

[bitter jungle]

Your frames drop that low playing fortnite?

[vocal sonnet]

yes

[bitter jungle]

Is it a consistent drop or does it drop for just a second and then go higher again @vocal sonnet

[vocal sonnet]

for 5 min i get drop 10 time

[bitter jungle]

Oh so it’s just a drop. It doesn’t stay that low for a long time right?

[vocal sonnet]

some time drop to 100 or 90 and never go up again

if i played 2 hours or more

[bitter jungle]

That’s very strange

[vocal sonnet]

i changed the psu to 1000 w

[bitter jungle]

If you have a warranty on your card you should try to get it replaced

[vocal sonnet]

and nithing

[bitter jungle]

What PSU.

Give me the exact model

[vocal sonnet]

for gpu ?

[bitter jungle]

What power supply do you have

[vocal sonnet]

cooling master 1000w gold

[bitter jungle]

Hmm okay

What about the CPU. What CPU do you have

[vocal sonnet]

Yeah if you still have warranty on that card contact the manufacturer and see if they can do anything about it or give you a replacement

[vocal sonnet]

i want chat with newegg support

nobody answer me

[bitter jungle]

You can DM them here on discord

[royal copper]

what do you need

is it a tech question or a order concern

@vocal sonnet first is your hdmi cable in the gpu or motherboard?

[vocal sonnet]

gpu

and i use display port

[rich oasis]

Why does everyone say that to me lol it doesn’t really matter

Also why does everyone want dp cable

[vocal sonnet]

for hz

[rich oasis]

But there are also high refresh rate hdmi

[vocal sonnet]

@royal copper i have problem with my gpu

[royal copper]

dp better for high refresh and variable sync

what buzzing?

[vocal sonnet]

sound

like zzzzzzz

[rich oasis]

Coil whine

[vocal sonnet]

??

[royal copper]

is it like a buzzer from the mobo or from the fans?

[vocal sonnet]

coil whine make a drop frame

mobo

[rich oasis]

No shouldnt but

[royal copper]

locate where it is coming from

[rich oasis]

Ok then mobo sound

What sound from mobo though

Do you have aio?

Ok it might be your pump

[vocal sonnet]

what pump'

and what aio

[rich oasis]

Water cooler

[vocal sonnet]

not from the cooler

inside the gpu

[rich oasis]

Ok then but didnt you say sound from mobo?

[vocal sonnet]

no no sorry '

[rich oasis]

Sorry gtg finals

[vocal sonnet]

some told me the gpu need more power and i upgrade the psu from 750 w to 1000 >>>> and nothing

[royal copper]

https://forums.anandtech.com/threads/geforce-2080-ti-buzzing-sound-while-gaming.2561931/

[vocal sonnet]

ok

i will ignore the sound but why i get drop whhhy ???/

[arctic phoenix]

its prob unrelated

like your gpu overheating or something

[bitter jungle]

He said the GPU is only 60c

[arctic bloom]

do you think it's worth it to spend an extra 70 bucks to get the 2070 super versus the normal 2070

[brisk flame]

well, what other gpu could you get for $430

if the og 2070 is 430, you could get a 5700xt for 409 at the cheapest

well, 5700xt is more like 390

[rich oasis]

The 2070 super is worth it over the 2070

but I would recomend just going amd

and getinng 5700xt

[brisk flame]

i mean, try beating this:
https://www.newegg.com/p/27N-0002-000T2

[arctic bloom]

I've been heavily considering the 5700xt

the people haing issues are kind of freaking me out though

I felt like the 2070 was more consistent and a safer bet

[granite juniper]

the majority of the driver issues are fixed rn, but it was pretty bad closer to launch

[sick apex]

anyone here play Sea Of Thieves cus i have a gpu issue and was seeing if people could relate

[feral pilot]

So i guess the faulty SATA cable I got most certainly killed my GPU. Friend says that the 12 volt rail that the GPU is plugged into is shared and the faulty cable might've fried it.

[merry rune]

8GB MSI RX 580, brand new, $150, worth it?

Armor X, OC edition, not the Gaming X

[arctic phoenix]

Yeah if its brand new

[merry rune]

yeah, buying from someone on reddit, but still sealed in box

[wicked hound]

1650S is $160 and objectively better

If you're buying from a third party you might as well go used anyways. Used 580 is 100 or so

[merry rune]

yeah, been trying to find used, and not having great luck. also need to make sure it's only 2 slot and not too long for my mini ITX case

so that narrows the options a bit

[wary anvil]

Lots of 1650S's are small form factor, so it shouldn't be too bad

[merry rune]

yeah, i can't find anything in-stock anywhere though, might just need to wait for supply to come back

even my local stores are out of stock on most everything

[pine gulch]

Anyone have msi 1030 ddr4 ?

[vocal sonnet]

when i play i get d3d error what can i do ???

[heavy compass]

@pine gulch i have a gt 1030 gddr5..

[fluid star]

hello guys i have question

my msi ventus 2080S goes up like 80 degrees on game is it normal ?

have 2 fan on it

btw my case airflow rate not good too much only 3 fan with it

based on slient setup

[wary anvil]

@fluid star 80 is on the hotter side normalish

[fluid star]

@wary anvil what is the normalish

degree

[wary anvil]

Depending on the game and case I'd say between 65 and 80

[kind wigeon]

building a budget pc for my friend, what is the minimum GPU to run fortnite at all epic settings at 1080p60? I was gonna go with the 1650 super, but still unsure if it can run that

[pine gulch]

Probally 1650 super

Look at YouTube

@kind wigeon

[kind wigeon]

ko

[fallen gale]

yo mama

[bitter jungle]

?

[fallen gale]

idk

imma get a 2060 super

[bitter jungle]

okay

[fallen gale]

and a 3700x

[bitter jungle]

okay

[fallen gale]

pretty epic right?

[bitter jungle]

A 2060 super will still run fine on a 3600 so you could save some money if you want

[fallen gale]

yeah

[bitter jungle]

unless you need those extra cores/threads

[fallen gale]

yeah

[bitter jungle]

But yeah pretty epic

[fallen gale]

id rather go more cores and threads cuz frick yeah

[bitter jungle]

why not?

[quasi gulch]

So I ordered the ASRock challenger d Rx 5600 xt yesterday. With the new bios it should do alright for gaming right?

[bitter jungle]

yep

1080p ultra or 1440p medium is good for that card iirc

[kind wigeon]

yea @quasi gulch it'll run litterally any game on 1080p and most of them on 2k

[quasi gulch]

Okay! Thank you very much!

[desert trail]

can i change the logo color on my rtx 2060?

[royal copper]

which 2060 is it

[granite juniper]

if its a founders edition no

[humble niche]

2080 or a 1080 ti?

do i have reason to upgrade?

[bitter jungle]

wait for rtx 3000 series

[pine gulch]

should i wait for the 4000 series or upgrade my 1030?

[bitter jungle]

you mean 3000 series?

wait what?

YOu mean upgrade CPU or GPU?

I'd say upgrade GPU for sure. Yours is garbage

[pine gulch]

anyone see any 1660 super sales on the MSI one?

[rigid crag]

Nope

[pine gulch]

alright thank you let me know if you see any

alright thank you let me know if you see any

[rigid crag]

K

[pine gulch]

thank you

[hollow zephyr]

**all

[pine gulch]

Dang it

[rare sorrel]

Whats a good gpu for ryzen 7 2700x?
Currently im on asus rog strix oc 8gb

[kind wigeon]

@rare sorrel what resolution/fps and games are you running

[rare sorrel]

Usually playing CSGO
Im on 1080p

[unique heart]

hey guys, thinking about upgrading my graphics card. Right now I have a ryzen 5 3600 with a 1060 6gb. If i get a 2060, will there be a bottleneck?

want to make sure i dont waste my money

[royal copper]

no, it should be fine with a 3600 @unique heart

[rigid crag]

You can run a 2080s off a 3600

[torpid garden]

But a 10600k would be nicer

[rich oasis]

I mean he's not wrong

[granite juniper]

yuh but z490 is $$$ and u want good ram

also z490 itx is a scam $270 for a decent mobo

[brave thistle]

Hey you GUYS!!!!

[rigid crag]

Hi

[spare relic]

https://media.tenor.com/images/7960533236dc0abbede27392add00a3f/tenor.gif

[slender vigil]

I just got the Z490-G it is a really nice board

[pine gulch]

Congratulations what specs do you have?

@slender vigil

[slender vigil]

I’m still waiting for the ram and stuff but I ordered i5 10400 as an temporary cpu until I get the i9

Lemme send the link for the ram

[pine gulch]

Wtf

Oh

I was about to say

[slender vigil]

https://www.newegg.com/g-skill-32gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820232903

Bought 2 orders of this

[spare relic]

Shoulda gotten the i3-350

[pine gulch]

Bruh

The ram looks so nice but nothing will match

[slender vigil]

What do you mean nothing will math

Match

[pine gulch]

What’s your motherboard

And gpu

[slender vigil]

Z490-G

[pine gulch]

I dont think they got gold GPUs

[slender vigil]

I’m doing a fish tank build

I bought the silver

[pine gulch]

Gigabyte Z490-G

Or ASUS

[slender vigil]

Asus

I’m doing fish tank build submerging entire system in special liquid

[pine gulch]

Wtf

[slender vigil]

EC-120 liquid

Cooled by radiators

[pine gulch]

Is the Z490-G waterproof ?

[slender vigil]

...

EC-120 is a pc liquid

[pine gulch]

Oh like pumps?

[slender vigil]

Lemme get you a vid

[pine gulch]

Okay cool

[slender vigil]

https://youtu.be/cPx4qyKPsw0 similar liquid but a example

[wicked hound]

non electrically conductive liquids exist

[pine gulch]

How does the water not break the parts

[wicked hound]

not water

[slender vigil]

...

[wicked hound]

clear liquid =/= water

[slender vigil]

Like hei said

We just bought all the stuff for it hoping it’s a success

I will be putting it in build pics ounce it’s finished

[wicked hound]

Tho wondering, does the stuff your going with have issues like mineral oil killing solder?

[pine gulch]

Very risky

Hopefully it all turns out well for you

[slender vigil]

No hei

Non toxic non flammable

There was no way we were going to use mineral oil

Don’t get why it would be risky

But alright lmao

One word for it expensive

[wicked hound]

But I mean degrading component wise. Just need to make sure to check for everything with this fun stuff

[slender vigil]

We made sure for that

It is going to be fun and really good

Only using 2070 s for this build until next series

[torpid garden]

What liquid did you use? Fluorinert?

[slender vigil]

EC-120

[pine gulch]

@slender vigil Very risky
Hopefully it all turns out well for you

[covert parcel]

what are good cheap wifi cards with bluetooth support

[wary anvil]

Define "good"

[covert parcel]

good quality under £50

[wary anvil]

Looking for pcie or usb?

[covert parcel]

pcie

[wary anvil]

You can probably find some, not sure about with bluetooth though. I don't know which ones are good or bad though

[covert parcel]

the server need a channel for all the extra stuff like wifi cards and other stuff like that

[wary anvil]

Yup

Mods and admins take note!

[rigid crag]

#electronics

[wary anvil]

Yeah, I guess it fits there, but it would be nice to have a #networking channel

[rigid crag]

I dont think it comes up often enough for another channel to moderate, especially when the electronics channel kinda fits the categorie and hardly had any traffic

[wary anvil]

Yeah 😦

[covert parcel]

i thougt not to put it ther cos it wernt under the computer hardware tab

this is my final list have i missed anything

[brisk flame]

bruh, didnt i make you a list?

it was pretty cheap

your getting a single stick of ram?

thats not a good idea

well, after having to click all those links, most of those parts are fine

PSU, case, HDD, motherboard

those are all fine

the gpu is ok tho, not super powerful, but your on a budget so its fine

[covert parcel]

ok hhanks im getting 2 sticks its just the way the link was

[brisk flame]

ahh

well, 120 for memory is overpriced

[covert parcel]

ive amended my chart

oh ok

[brisk flame]

you can go much cheaper

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Crucial-Ballistix-BL2K8G32C16U4B-Desktop-Gaming/dp/B083TRRT16/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=ddr4+3200+ram&qid=1591229464&s=computers&sr=1-1

also two of those things are oos

also i didnt see an ssd in that list

if you want to run windows 10

trust me you are going to want one

[covert parcel]

im just gonna put it on the hdd loading times arent a problem for me

[brisk flame]

it has nothing to do with loading times

[covert parcel]

boot time

[brisk flame]

it has absolutly nothing to do with loading times

it has absolutly nothing to do with boot times

[wary anvil]

What does it have to do with then?

[brisk flame]

windows 10, and the 2000 threads that typically run on a bog standard installation of windows 10 will hit your storage like mad

[wary anvil]

Oh, yeah 🙂 I forgot what that was like

[brisk flame]

after you install like 2-3 programs and use your pc after like 3 months, it will slow to a crawl

i mean
