I have a ryzen 5 1600 zen 1 not the 1600af zen+. I was wondering if i should build a new pc or just upgrade my 1060 3gb gpu for an rtx 2070 super.

Dm me plz

240 dollars for a 1660 super is what they ran before the pandemic. So I'd say that it's a decent deal for a good card right now. But not a good deal in the grand scheme of things.

EVGA rtx 2060 KO ultra or a gigabyte rx 5600xt

rigid crag Jun 18, 2020, 4:03 PM

#

For gaming, streaming, or workstation?

#

Actually nvm, 2060 is pretty much better in all of those lol

warped carbon Jun 18, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

Aight, so I got a GTX 1060 with 2 fans. Unfortunately one of the fans wore down and I cannot afford to buy a new fan for a while. Can this card run without a fan (assume the other fan is spinning 100%) while playing a graphics demanding game

kind wigeon Jun 18, 2020, 5:26 PM

#

it's not advisable

#

@warped carbon

#

do you know why it's not working?

warped carbon Jun 18, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

I think the bearings have worn out

#

It’s spinning well it’s spinning -ish

kind wigeon Jun 18, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

do you have afterburner?

#

try ramping up the fan setting on auto

warped carbon Jun 18, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

Yes I have that. It’s just I wanna play it safe anyway. First time it’s going single fan

kind wigeon Jun 18, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

well use it at your own risk, I wouldn't get its temps up too high, or you risk a gpu crash

lone pond Jun 18, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

What brand card?

buoyant stone Jun 18, 2020, 6:58 PM

#

GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2070 Super WINDFORCE OC 3X 8G Graphics Card

Any thoughts on this card?

charred spade Jun 18, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

It's good if you want a value 2070 super

lone pond Jun 18, 2020, 10:25 PM

#

It's more than a "value" card. Plus they actually have good customer service. Something that is hard to find now.

upper mural Jun 18, 2020, 11:11 PM

#

It alright. I see complaints of coil wind noise on some reviews

lone pond Jun 19, 2020, 12:29 AM

#

Yeah, if you have an issue with the fans, just call them, they'll send new ones out. They did for my 1650

#

Batch of funky bearings I think

#

Had the same issue with Asus in the past.

buoyant stone Jun 19, 2020, 2:27 AM

#

So is there really a difference in the 2070 super between brands?

upper mural Jun 19, 2020, 2:28 AM

#

only in cooling potential for OC purposes. Nvidia FE actually has a hardware advantage but its so small only the ocd guys will fret on it because the FE card cant cool itself enough to take advantage of it

hexed forge Jun 19, 2020, 2:29 AM

#

yeah. like for example evga cards, the black has bad cooling, the XC is good, the XC ultra or whatever is factory overclocked

#

diff brands have diff coolers cause they have to make their own but are functionally the same, and as Cru4y said FE has hardware advantage but its negligible

lone pond Jun 19, 2020, 3:50 AM

#

i see this right after i order my 2070 super evga black

#

damn.

buoyant stone Jun 19, 2020, 4:30 AM

#

Lol

normal hawk Jun 19, 2020, 4:39 AM

#

@buoyant stone I have that 2070 super. I'm very happy with it. And it keeps cool during all the games I play. Lol haven't had it go over 60°c while playing in 1440p.

upper mural Jun 19, 2020, 7:42 AM

#

Generally as long as you don’t OC then the cooling solution is just fine. But those cards have room for 10% easy OC in many cases if the cooling solution is good enough. This is like spending an extra 200$ for the next bigger card in many cases as well. So

lunar dirge Jun 19, 2020, 2:14 PM

hey all, had a gigabyte 2080 super delivered DOA and am currently RMAing it with Newegg...however that card is basically out of stock everywhere. I have a Gigabyte z390 MB, so I would prefer to stay with Gigabyte...but if I cannot get one, besides the RGB lighting sync with my MB, is there any other benefit to sticking with Gigabyte

rigid crag Jun 19, 2020, 2:19 PM

#

Personally, I like the cooler on that card but a evga or rog card should be fine too

#

If its a true rma tho they should send you back a replacement card

lunar dirge Jun 19, 2020, 2:21 PM

#

Thanks. There are no replacement cards available, so they basically told me they would send me an RMA to return the DOA card and refund me...but trying to find a replacement, I am on my own

rigid crag Jun 19, 2020, 2:21 PM

#

Ah I see

#

I'll take a quick look at whats in stock to see if there's a good one. Otherwise it might be best to wait

lunar dirge Jun 19, 2020, 2:22 PM

#

Do you mean wait for the 3000 series, or until the Gigabyte are back in stock...cause I talked to a Gigabyte rep and he said they are no longer making those cards because Nvidia has stopped providing them with the chipset (since the 3000 series is upon us)

rigid crag Jun 19, 2020, 2:24 PM

#

I meant wait for the gig cards to be back but I was unaware that they stop the supply of those cards, which is very unfortunate

#

Let me check something real quick

lunar dirge Jun 19, 2020, 2:24 PM

#

Thanks homie 🙂

rigid crag Jun 19, 2020, 2:26 PM

#

Ok so, if you need a card now, then I would get this one https://www.bestbuy.com/site/evga-super-xc-ultra-gaming-nvidia-geforce-rtx-2080-super-8gb-gddr6-pci-express-3-0-graphics-card-black-transparent/6373486.p?acampID=633495&cmp=RMX&loc=XCs1MeU2YxyOTlQ0TWXZ0S3wUkiyTiQ1R1iAUM0&ref=198&skuId=6373486
But if you can wait a little, I would wait for the 3000 series

#

You could always get something like a 2060 that would hold you off till 3000 series when you want more power too

#

Not a very good situation tho

lunar dirge Jun 19, 2020, 2:27 PM

#

I've actually looked at that EVGA card, as I currently have an EVGA 1070 black...do we have an idea of the price point for the 3000 series?

#

Yeah it is not a good situation, lol

rigid crag Jun 19, 2020, 2:28 PM

#

Not yet. But my best guess is slightly more expensive then their 2000 series counterparts

lunar dirge Jun 19, 2020, 2:28 PM

#

That is what I figured...Thanks for your input. I appreciate it

rigid crag Jun 19, 2020, 2:29 PM

#

Np. I'd be pretty disappointed in your situation so sorry I couldn't help much

lunar dirge Jun 19, 2020, 2:30 PM

#

Oh I am ... I was so frustrated last night when I tried to put it in. I might just pull the trigger on the EVGA...we will see

#

Thanks again

soft quarry Jun 19, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

Can't choose between a 2060S or a 2070S, does anyone know if the 2070S is worth it over the 2060S?

brisk flame Jun 19, 2020, 6:48 PM

#

2070s is worth it

#

you get a sizable increase in performance for the money

#

2060s is also a decent card, but going with the better and cheaper 5700xt over it would be a better choice

#

unless you plan on using NVENC or CUDA

soft quarry Jun 19, 2020, 6:51 PM

#

Alright thanks for the input

lunar dirge Jun 19, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

@rigid crag Decided on and already pulled the trigger on the ASUS ROG Strix 2080 super. Thanks again for your help.

#

@lunar dirge if you can wait wait till december

brisk flame Jun 19, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

nah, 2080 super worth buying now

#

its not being scalped or anything

rigid crag Jun 19, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

3000 series cards don't make 2000 series any less powerful

#

I'm glad you got it worked out

brisk flame Jun 19, 2020, 7:38 PM

#

you get what you pay for, regardless

lunar dirge Jun 19, 2020, 8:30 PM

#

@rich oasis Technically I could wait until December, but I don't want to. I don't have to be on the cutting edge like I did when I was younger, so the 3000 series isn't an absolute must for me. I just want something better then the 1070 black for when Cyber Punk 2077 is released

red elm Jun 19, 2020, 11:19 PM

Is it worth getting the Asus Radeon 5700XT over the Gigabyte rtx 2070 super? A lot the recent Radeon reviews are saying they’ve got temp and blue screen issues

granite juniper Jun 19, 2020, 11:20 PM

#

don’t get asus for amd cards

sage yew Jun 19, 2020, 11:20 PM

#

I’m unsure of AMD

#

That’s why I use Intel

granite juniper Jun 19, 2020, 11:20 PM

#

and the drivers are mostly good now (still a little issues), but much cheaper than a 2070S for a little less performance

royal copper Jun 19, 2020, 11:21 PM

#

be sure of amd

#

amd better value cpu

sage yew Jun 19, 2020, 11:22 PM

lone pond Jun 19, 2020, 11:22 PM

Go with the Giga

upper mural Jun 19, 2020, 11:23 PM

#

Their are some great 5700xt cards tho. But if you can justify a 2070 s then their is no debate

#

5700xt is about 100 USD cheaper

red elm Jun 19, 2020, 11:25 PM

#

Yeah that’s why I started looking at the Radeon

granite juniper Jun 19, 2020, 11:25 PM

#

5700xt is pretty much unbeatable for price/performance rn

upper mural Jun 19, 2020, 11:25 PM

#

The taichi is on sale today at Newegg. Nab it

granite juniper Jun 19, 2020, 11:25 PM

Yes, new cards coming in at around $1,500

red elm Jun 19, 2020, 11:28 PM

#

That basically my whole budget on just a card

upper mural Jun 19, 2020, 11:28 PM

I like Taichi, Sapphire Nitro, and the Strix advanced OC 5700xt

lone pond Jun 19, 2020, 11:28 PM

#

Don't go ASUS for a gpu, crapfest.

#

That's actually what turned me away from ASUS after 15 years of building customer rigs with them.

upper mural Jun 19, 2020, 11:29 PM

#

They always start with the top of the line on releases. Then we may see price decreases in the 20 series.

lone pond Jun 19, 2020, 11:30 PM

#

Top of the line, $3k

upper mural Jun 19, 2020, 11:30 PM

#

And what is Radeon comes out with good cards. It's gonna be a great time to be alive

red elm Jun 19, 2020, 11:30 PM

#

So if I’m not trying to build it right away, I should also just wait for the prices to drop even lower anyway

#

The gigabyte is at 500 rn

lone pond Jun 19, 2020, 11:32 PM

#

Production of most the 2000 series has stopped btw. Nividia is focusing on the new line.

red elm Jun 19, 2020, 11:34 PM

#

Then my choice is the 2000 series for the 500 or 3000 series for some unconfirmed price point?

You don’t want to run over 80c long term

quasi flicker Jun 20, 2020, 2:45 AM

Could a Threadripper be used for gaming 🤣

crude dust Jun 20, 2020, 2:46 AM

#

@quasi flicker yes

quasi flicker Jun 20, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

Which would be the best?

crude dust Jun 20, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

But it’s not going to be used fully. TR supports game mode in Ryzen master which will turn off 2 of the ccds on my 3970x. Cpu will run faster this way and creator mode or default will turn it all on.

#

I don’t really game that much but when I do I find it fine. TR is a lot of $ why do you want to go that way? For the 8 dimm slots?

quasi flicker Jun 20, 2020, 2:51 AM

#

Yeah

wary anvil Jun 20, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

How much ram are you wanting to install

quasi flicker Jun 20, 2020, 2:55 AM

#

Sry just realized this was in the wrong channel lol

#

128 but I cant find anything that has that in 4 dimms

#

Or 64

crude dust Jun 20, 2020, 2:56 AM

#

You should be able to find that

#

That was just a quick filter on Newegg

#

I think Ryzen only supports 64mb

wary anvil Jun 20, 2020, 2:57 AM

#

On the other hand, if you're doing something that needs that much ram a threadripper might be validated

crude dust Jun 20, 2020, 2:59 AM

#

What do you run that you need a big ram kit?

quasi flicker Jun 20, 2020, 3:00 AM

#

Yeah just thought about that, nothing THAT big

#

64 would be enough

wary anvil Jun 20, 2020, 3:08 AM

#

Honestly, 16 is enough for most people

jovial ferry Jun 20, 2020, 3:10 AM

#

Eh. It's "enough," but I wouldn't want to use a computer with less than 32 again

wary anvil Jun 20, 2020, 3:13 AM

#

This is true. More ram doesn't hurt if you have the budget

kind wigeon Jun 20, 2020, 3:45 AM

#

I clock out abt 24-30 gbs when rendering unreal engine, running discord, chrome, spotify, blender, fusion360, and a 4k video or tv show

so i'd say most ppl are perfectly fine with 16 gbs of ram

runic trail Jun 20, 2020, 6:39 PM

#

Is there a difference in performance between a regular RTX 2060 and an RTX 2060 KO?

brisk flame Jun 20, 2020, 6:39 PM

#

for gaming, no

#

for specific workstation tasks yes

runic trail Jun 20, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

What about streaming, editing and light rendering?

lone pond Jun 20, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

@lone pond I mean he bought a giga gpu

#

Yup yup. Good stuff.

brisk flame Jun 20, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

streaming and editing theres no difference

#

and it depends on the type of rendering

#

some software uses CPU, some use GPU

runic trail Jun 20, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

Like blender

brisk flame Jun 20, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

blender can use both

runic trail Jun 20, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

Alright

#

Thanks so much man

brisk flame Jun 20, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

the ko might not change much in terms of performace, but its cheapest 2060 regardless

runic trail Jun 20, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

One more thing, would you say the KO is good for oc'ing?

brisk flame Jun 20, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

so theres no reason not to get it

#

i think its fine

runic trail Jun 20, 2020, 6:43 PM

#

Would I be able to oc it to like 2060S performance?

brisk flame Jun 20, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

i mean, it really comes down to the silicon you get, which varies with all other gpus

#

no

#

you wouldnt get close

runic trail Jun 20, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

Damn

#

What if I went with a regular 2060?

brisk flame Jun 20, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

the 2060 and 2060 ko perform the same in like every scenario

runic trail Jun 20, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

oh alright

brisk flame Jun 20, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

except for a hand full of workstation tasks

runic trail Jun 20, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

oh

brisk flame Jun 20, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

the ko performs better

#

so get the ko anyway lol

runic trail Jun 20, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

And the KO would perform the same when RTX is on, correct?

brisk flame Jun 20, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

yeah, but neither card is good with RTX

#

so dont worry about it

runic trail Jun 20, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

Alright, thanks for the help man

brisk flame Jun 20, 2020, 6:45 PM

#

np

soft quarry Jun 20, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

Isn't the KO the same price as a normal 2060 anyways? If so they should practically be the same card

runic trail Jun 20, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

Regular 2060 is about 320$ and the KO is 300$

soft quarry Jun 20, 2020, 6:46 PM

#

Ah

buoyant stone Jun 20, 2020, 9:11 PM

#

Is the 2070 super worth it over the 5700xt?

sand storm Jun 20, 2020, 9:35 PM

#

personally I like NVIDIA GPUs over AMD so I would go with a 2070 super but I never owned an AMD GPU so I would not take my word for it

wicked hound Jun 20, 2020, 9:41 PM

#

It is if you need NVENC for video encoding. If not, 2070S is a waste of money

#

RTX is still not worth it game or hardware wise. Need to wait 3rd or 4th gen until the hardware is at least good enough for it to be relevant to pay for. Same with games as only like 13 games support it and lot of them you really dont want RTX on at all because they're competitive shooters or smth

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:33 PM

Would yall get a 5500Xt??

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:37 PM

wicked hound Jun 20, 2020, 11:38 PM

#

5500XT bad

lone pond Jun 20, 2020, 11:38 PM

#

I've used hundreds of GPUs from both sides in customer builds. Got to the point that I was done with AMDs GPUs, just as I got to be done with using Intel CPUs

wicked hound Jun 20, 2020, 11:38 PM

#

RX570 is basically the same for cheaper

#

Maybe 580, don't remember now

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:39 PM

#

temps wise they're all about the same right??

#

the only reason i wouldnt get a 1650s is because of the amount of vram

lone pond Jun 20, 2020, 11:40 PM

#

I swapped my 1650s for a 1660S

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:40 PM

#

yeah a couple of my friends plan on doing builds so im trying to help them out

normal hawk Jun 20, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

Get 2 used 580s and do crossfire. /s

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:42 PM

#

yeah to keep him warm in the winter

lone pond Jun 20, 2020, 11:43 PM

normal hawk Jun 20, 2020, 11:44 PM

#

I think that was the only game it helped a good amount in

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:44 PM

#

what Hei said, 5500XT is basically a 580/590ish level card, just get either an 8GB 580 or if the budget allows, go up to a 5600XT. everyone harps on drivers, but after the update AMD released earlier this year, they're fine. they fixed a crapton of issues that had been plaguing them since the 5000 series release

#

if streaming matters, get nvidia and something with nvenc

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:44 PM

#

exactly why i bought a 5600xt

lone pond Jun 20, 2020, 11:44 PM

#

The thing is AMD will break the drivers again. People seem to forget they cycle every few years with breaking them.

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:45 PM

#

and you just avoid that version until they fix it

#

people do that with software releases all the time

lone pond Jun 20, 2020, 11:45 PM

#

ATI did it, continued after AMD bought them

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:45 PM

#

'oh, that broke X? they'll patch it and i'll upgrade then'

normal hawk Jun 20, 2020, 11:45 PM

#

And Nvidia will release overpriced gpu's again. But that won't stop people from paying 1000$

#

Who cares

lone pond Jun 20, 2020, 11:45 PM

#

Sorry, I'll just let you only talk

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

i do

wary anvil Jun 20, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

I care

normal hawk Jun 20, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

Both companies have issues. Get one within your means at performance you want

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

hehe

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

I stick with AMD because they've always provided the performance I'm after at a budget I'm comfortable with

wary anvil Jun 20, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

Frankly, I think nvidia needs to step up their driver game. The drivers they supply are crap and cause all sorts of problems

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

just really crispy frames without sacrificing resolution,textures,etc. to beat a console

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

I've used nvidia in the past, and didn't have any issues with it

lone pond Jun 20, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

Love it when one person tries to lay down the it's pointless to argue issue.

wary anvil Jun 20, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

Windows or Linux?

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

especially something to stand against the new ones

#

probably windows

normal hawk Jun 20, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

You're helping someone build a PC. Pay attention to their budget and their needs. If they are streaming, go Nvidia. If they are willing to pay more for reliable drivers go nvidia.

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:48 PM

#

but i might have him try linux

#

they're not streaming

normal hawk Jun 20, 2020, 11:48 PM

#

If they wanna keep the price lower, go AMD. Except the 5500xt.

lone pond Jun 20, 2020, 11:48 PM

#

I'm not even talking with you anymore.

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:48 PM

#

wary anvil Jun 20, 2020, 11:48 PM

#

Windows nvidia drivers work fine, since apparently windows pays them big money and they have a cross company team

#

Linux, pfft

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:48 PM

#

i've been told lmao

#

alright so either a 580 or a 1660s?

normal hawk Jun 20, 2020, 11:49 PM

#

Yeah, if ~240$ is their budget. The 1660s would be the best at that price.

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:49 PM

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:49 PM

wary anvil Jun 20, 2020, 11:50 PM

#

You just wait for a good sale

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:50 PM

#

cause his older brother who is also my friend wants to move form his gaming laptop

#

**from

#

he said the max would be $1000

#

and i dont wanna have their parents pay just as much for another build

normal hawk Jun 20, 2020, 11:50 PM

#

For the whole build?

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:51 PM

#

yeah

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:51 PM

#

If the budget is under $200 and they aren't willing to wait for a 1660S sale, I'd say 580, otherwise a 1660S at normal price

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:51 PM

#

$1000 for the older one and idk ab the younger one

#

if its the same then i'll put money on what kind of games they play and storage

normal hawk Jun 20, 2020, 11:52 PM

#

Ye

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:52 PM

#

not enough headroom for the games

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:55 PM

#

8GB 5500XT is almost 1660S price and not worth it

#

especially compared to 8GB 580

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:56 PM

#

yeah but it comes with a rebate card

#

so its like the same price as the 580

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:57 PM

#

in that case, maybe

#

5500XT will draw less power than the 580

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:57 PM

#

yeah you see

#

thats why i was thinking that card

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:57 PM

#

at full price i'd say absolutely not

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:57 PM

#

ubt the 8gb version

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:57 PM

i didn't know about the rebate lol

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:57 PM

#

yeah i know

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:57 PM

#

will they actually send it in though

#

if it's a mail thing

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:57 PM

#

that $200 was a no go

#

idk

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:58 PM

#

because mail in rebates almost get me a lot of the time and then i remember i'm lazy

#

oh, are you looking at the ASRock one, with the $20 rebate?

hollow zephyr Jun 20, 2020, 11:59 PM

#

i've done mine but i haven't gotten anything back i dont think

#

yeah

#

im gonna look up reviews on temps and such

#

but i think it'll be a worthy card

merry rune Jun 20, 2020, 11:59 PM

#

at the rebate price, definitely

#

asrock limits the rebate to 1 per household though, so if they are building 2 pc's, can't double dip

lone pond Jun 21, 2020, 12:00 AM

#

I've heard not so good things about ASRock's GPUs

merry rune Jun 21, 2020, 12:00 AM

#

the card in question only has 13 reviews on the wegg, but it's 5 eggs. small sample size, but a promising start

hollow zephyr Jun 21, 2020, 12:00 AM

#

the older one is gonna get a 2060ko

merry rune Jun 21, 2020, 12:00 AM

#

worth more research though

#

ohh word

#

ok

hollow zephyr Jun 21, 2020, 12:01 AM

#

yeah my card had 3eggs but like

#

its very good

#

it was just drivers issues

#

which i havent had at alll

#

so it was a good deal

#

for $280

merry rune Jun 21, 2020, 12:02 AM

#

maybe i'll finally upgrade to a 5600XT if i can sell the PC i'm building

#

i went from a cheap 570 to a cheap 580

which was an upgrade

#

but not REALLY

@buoyant stone @pseudo compass not even $1000. More like $600 - $700 or so

#

@jovial ferry do note 5500xt is terrible value, so is that RAM

jovial ferry Jun 21, 2020, 3:23 PM

#

Ik, was matching the specs of the that offer

#

Just to show how overpriced it is

wicked hound Jun 21, 2020, 3:25 PM

Eh, I'd match perf to really show its bad price, rather then components

when I play a game and certain particles or effects get near me such as chug splashes in Fortnite or smoke in Roblox or something in Overwatch, my monitor disconnects and the fans go super loud, only way to fix this temporarily is to disconnect the monitors cable from the computer and plug it into a different spot or just unplug and plug it back into the same spot. Also my gpu usage seems to spike a lot.

@slender vigil Anywhere else you post? I'd like to see your progress

@wary edge hey I’m getting a tube fitting and I’m going to be pouring in the liquid, get the copper tubes the way i want them and if that fails I have soft tubing. Should be done today.

And since it’s submerged and have almost no fans I’ll be bitcoining at night

So should I buy the 1070 for 150 or stick with the 580 that I got for 60?

brisk flame Jun 21, 2020, 6:21 PM

#

the 1070 will typically outperform the 580, but you already have a 580, which is still a decent card

#

whats your cpu?

@fleet egret are your drivers up to date? An Am4 CPU shouldn't have any issues with a 580 GPU.

hollow zephyr Jun 21, 2020, 8:45 PM

#

okay so i found a gtx 780 for $100

#

a good deal or nah?

#

was looking at userbenchmark and it beats out a lot cards today

#

just wanted to know where i could find driver support

rigid crag Jun 21, 2020, 8:48 PM

#

I wouldn't buy that

#

1060 beats it and can be found for around 100ish

hollow zephyr Jun 21, 2020, 8:49 PM

https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-GTX-780-vs-Nvidia-GTX-1060-6GB/2164vs3639

UserBenchmark: Nvidia GTX 1060-6GB vs 780

Based on 954,652 user benchmarks for the Nvidia GTX 1060-6GB and the GTX 780, we rank them both on effective speed and value for money against the best 639 GPUs.

#

only if you can find a 6gb card tho

rigid crag Jun 21, 2020, 8:49 PM

Ya, my bad

hollow zephyr Jun 21, 2020, 8:49 PM

#

thx tho

rigid crag Jun 21, 2020, 8:49 PM

#

3gb version is probably still a lil better tho lol

hollow zephyr Jun 21, 2020, 8:50 PM

#

its only $100 and looks to be in pristine condition

rigid crag Jun 21, 2020, 8:50 PM

#

Ya, 100 isn't a really good price tho lol

hollow zephyr Jun 21, 2020, 8:50 PM

#

if it were the ti version it'd prolly be a better price

rigid crag Jun 21, 2020, 8:51 PM

what are you using it for?

hollow zephyr Jun 21, 2020, 8:51 PM

just like a throwaway rig

rigid crag Jun 21, 2020, 8:51 PM

#

Well, it fits that description lol. For performance tho, just try to find a 580 or something tho

#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

hollow zephyr Jun 21, 2020, 8:52 PM

#

but thats like $80 more expensive

rigid crag Jun 21, 2020, 8:52 PM

@hollow zephyr @rigid crag afaik 1060 beats 780 by an okay amount in games due to arch and drivers.

#

UB seems to have similar perf, but not games iirc it was

Got a weird problem, working on a friend of mine's PC due to instability/ crashes. The CPU seems to run totally fine, put it on an hour loop of CB R20 and no issues. Ran Memtest, no errors. Started GPU stress tests, getting crashes. So, Unigine Heaven and Valley run fine, but only in DX9, once dx11 is toggled it instantly crashes.

Should I get a used GTX 1080 for 329.97$ with no warranty or a new RTX 2060 for 299.99$ with a 3 year warranty? I'll be gaming, streaming, editing, recording and light rendering on this computer.

rich oasis Jun 22, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

I would get the new 2060 it will be probably worse for gaming, but it has the nvec

#

which makes streaming better

rigid crag Jun 22, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

Look for a 2060 ko and it will perform similarly to a 2080 in workstation tasks

main mauve Jun 22, 2020, 8:48 PM

what's your ram configuration? also are you on hdd or ssd? @main mauve
@strange depot 4 dimms g.skill = 32GB @ 3600mhz (16-16-16-36). Plus im on a gen4 pcie m.2. Although, i did disable directx12 and it solved the problem with battlefront II, i can run ultra settings at 75hz no problem

This is a double rad dual fan cooler. it rivals 80$ ones and matches many.. check the reviews on it

Stock cooler on ryzen is good enough unless you're overclocking or doing production work.

no i mean like on ebay

#

like if it says the specs

#

@strange depot

strange depot Jun 23, 2020, 1:17 AM

#

well the best thing about ebay is you can buy item free shipping, return item free shipping at sellers expense

#

or just ask the seller what chipset the gpu have

#

but to answer your question, i dont know how to tell, if i dont see what chipset is or if it doesnt say pascal or maxwell

brisk flame Jun 23, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

maxwell is silver, pascal is black

#

all titan gpus are FE cards, there are no AIB 3rd party ones

#

so, if you see Titan X, all you gotta do is look at it and you know

#

but i would suggest the 1080ti over the titan X

#

they are much cheaper

#

and only 1gb less VRAM

strange depot Jun 23, 2020, 1:20 AM

#

yeah i was looking at spec i was like no no
