i do like the look on it

rigid crag Jul 26, 2020, 1:14 AM

#

Founders edition isn't really special

tame iris Jul 26, 2020, 1:15 AM

#

oh

rigid crag Jul 26, 2020, 1:15 AM

#

Its just avegage

tame iris Jul 26, 2020, 1:15 AM

#

ok

#

which one do you recommend then

rigid crag Jul 26, 2020, 1:15 AM

#

Fe cards tend to be the cheapest actually

tame iris Jul 26, 2020, 1:15 AM

#

wow

#

thought it would be better

rigid crag Jul 26, 2020, 1:15 AM

#

Don't get me wrong, its still a good card.

tame iris Jul 26, 2020, 1:15 AM

#

gotcha

granite juniper Jul 26, 2020, 1:15 AM

#

fe cards are the ones nvidia makes theyre decent at a decent price

tame iris Jul 26, 2020, 1:16 AM

#

so should i get evga or is there others that are better

rigid crag Jul 26, 2020, 1:16 AM

#

I like evga and then gigabyte

tame iris Jul 26, 2020, 1:16 AM

#

ok

#

thanks for the help

rigid crag Jul 26, 2020, 1:16 AM

#

Sure

sullen nest Jul 26, 2020, 2:24 AM

#

So EVGA is the best?

#

What’s the difference than them aren’t they the same graphics cards for example a EVGA 2070super and a Gigabyte 2070super what would be the difference? Assuming both are 3 fan cards

tame iris Jul 26, 2020, 2:57 AM

#

yea im curious too lol

#

bc i see they have different prices

rigid crag Jul 26, 2020, 2:58 AM

#

Different coolers and some have slightly higher core clocks

tame iris Jul 26, 2020, 2:59 AM

#

oh

rigid crag Jul 26, 2020, 3:00 AM

#

There's brand loyalty too ig

tame iris Jul 26, 2020, 3:00 AM

#

oh

wicked hound Jul 26, 2020, 5:47 AM

#

EVGA/Gigabyte is best on the cheap side usually. But is a bit eh sometimes when it comes to high the end

paper phoenix Jul 26, 2020, 5:49 AM

#

My top 3 brands I’m loyal too is Gigabyte, MSI, and Corsair

#

Not for just Gpus but everything

wicked hound Jul 26, 2020, 5:50 AM

#

eh, Corsair is only good for PSUs tbh

#

MSI is quite lackluster in quality. Probs only a couple x570 boards I can think of rn out of everything I know they've done are good

#

Gigabyte does well on the cheap stuff. Usually a good option for very budget things on mobos and is quite competitive with EVGA on the cheap GPUs

#

but high end I havent heard of much from them

#

some good high end mobos I guess

rich wraith Jul 26, 2020, 7:17 AM

#

Corsair makes good peripherals that aren’t too pricey and are quite good. I’ve had an MSI b150 mortar 1151 board for 5 years now and have had no issues. Would disagree with them skimping on quality, they were one of the first to use a re-enforced pcie slot and it was an absolute must with my zotac omega card.

wicked hound Jul 26, 2020, 7:58 AM

#

Corsair peripherals fail a lot based on experience and what I've seen on the Internet. They are most definitely pricy for what they are too. Cheap compared to Razer or smth. Expensive compared to Redragon or the "not so name brand".
MSI is usually meh on quality. Just because it hasnt failed yet doesnt mean it's good. Like look at Ryzen. First gen mobo was botch on BIOS features and quality (tho most failed on actual quality on first gen). Their second gen mobo was bad on quality too for the most part. Like the b450 Tomahawk? Lack of M2 dual NVMe ports and lack of a good sound chip compared to cheaper mobos. Same price bracket you lack those features plus extra x16 PCIe slot, lack of WiFi, and lack of a better LAN chip. A nice one was the b450 Carbon Pro tho. x470 was okay. Their basic x470 was bad and was worse quality then much cheaper b450 boards. The high end was okay I think, but kinda pricy iirc. Their x570 started out horribly with worse quality compared to other vendors. x570 Tomahawk is finally decent, tho questionably worth the price for most tbh. Their GPUs havent been worth it for at least quite a while due to being poor quality compared to other vendors. Sure I myself have a MSI z170 mobo that hasnt failed and works okay, but that doesnt mean they've been amazing across the board.

jovial ferry Jul 26, 2020, 2:44 PM

#

Corsair is pricey fr, but their flagship mice cost half of what ROG charges

#

Plus iCue is pretty sick

mellow kiln Jul 26, 2020, 3:12 PM

#

icue is amazing

#

the scroll wheel on my m65 broke so i just remapped the side buttons to scroll instead, I didn't like the wider shape and how heavy it was so I switched to a g203, but still a great mouse

#

the ear cushions on my hs50 fell off in a couple months though :/

jovial ferry Jul 26, 2020, 3:43 PM

#

It has bugs but is the best I have used. I don't know why people complain about the interface, it's great

rich wraith Jul 26, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

That’s respectable. Disses msi but has an msi board

magic pebble Jul 26, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

I have lots of corsair stuff, their biggest weakness is the scroll wheel on their mice. they are prone to failure. My m65 that is on a second computer that I dont use a lot I pulled apart after about a year and cleaned it out because it was starting to have issues.
Current mouse is the dark core pro se. I have been using it for maybe 2 months. Swapped from a g502. I miss the scroll wheel on my g502 but other than that I really like the dark core. Time will tell for longevity.

Hey I found an MSI GeForce RTX 2070 8 GB VENTUS GP Video Card for about $390. Should I get that, or an MSI GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER 8 GB GAMING X Video Card for $414?

trim crown Jul 26, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

Wish me luck using the gigabyte rx5700xt, just bought it and feeling worried...

magic pebble Jul 26, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

I have 2 corsair keyboards. an older k65 tkl with reds that I used as my main keyboard for about 1.5 years. Current is a k95 rgb with the 18 macro keys. I have been using it for almost 3 years. It was a refurbished keyboard and has been good for me. I did put orings on it though. the clack was annoying without them.

#

the stabilizers on the spacebar and left shift will get sticky if you don't clean it regularly though.

#

Only thing I wish was different on my k95 is that I could swap the keys switches without having to pull the keyboard apart and desolder.

Scroll wheel on g502 is soooo fun

#

is 85 degrees okay to have while playing a game? it goes to 85 max never goes higher.

marble moth Jul 26, 2020, 11:24 PM

#

i dont like it going higher than 70

#

i set the limit to 65 but overwatch specifically will push past it

granite juniper Jul 26, 2020, 11:25 PM

#

ya 85 is kinda high but not damaging if u mean 85c, i'd increase the fan speed

safe flower Jul 26, 2020, 11:55 PM

#

my pc started getting to 85c but i found it was my msi software causing issue

#

it came with the mb,so you can oc and things,with out it 70c is about max

sullen nest Jul 27, 2020, 12:08 AM

#

hi guys i might have a problem with my rx 580... im typing rn so its not to bad i guess... the fans arent spinning

#

its MSI

#

anyone know if this is normal?

bitter jungle Jul 27, 2020, 12:12 AM

#

When the GPU is idle, yes that’s normal

#

If it’s under load, like when playing a game, and they don’t spin, that’s not normal

sullen nest Jul 27, 2020, 12:13 AM

#

o ok

#

i figured this out earlier when i also figured out my ram sticks were in wrong... they were side by side

safe flower Jul 27, 2020, 12:14 AM

#

2 and 4 slots

sullen nest Jul 27, 2020, 12:14 AM

#

yea thats what theyre in now

#

i fixed it

#

im so stupid theyve been like that for probably 2 years now

safe flower Jul 27, 2020, 12:15 AM

#

lol, i did it on my first build

#

not 2 years though

sullen nest Jul 27, 2020, 12:15 AM

sullen nest Jul 27, 2020, 12:19 AM

#

i guess so i was just checking what HDD i have since its so bad it dosent show up in any software ive got

#

then i found that my GPU fans dont spin (its normal i now know) and that my ram was installed incorrectly

#

pray for me when i build my first pc... please

#

im confused though i watched a video and he pointed out pads for the PSU and said they insulation pads? is this true?

#

and also installed the ram incorrectly and also pressed hard on his cpu

acoustic ginkgo Jul 27, 2020, 12:26 AM

#

Did somebody link you the Verge video as a mean joke?

sullen nest Jul 27, 2020, 12:29 AM

#

idk in the title it says the verge re upload full video

#

wdym "Mean joke"

#

all he did was show me how to build a pc

merry rune Jul 27, 2020, 12:29 AM

#

the verge video is everything wrong with building a PC

#

don't use that one

#

and if someone sends you that one, punch them or something

#

i think both linustechtips and bitwit have both made solid build tutorial videos

sullen nest Jul 27, 2020, 12:30 AM

#

must be why for 2 years my ram was installed right next to each other... i just figured out that to day

#

i like bitwit

#

hes cool

#

whats ram do?

#

bc since i had it messed up i think ive been running on 8gb

#

instead of 16

acoustic ginkgo Jul 27, 2020, 12:32 AM

#

I mean, the Verge video is best watched as an exercise in "What not to do." Watch some of the other youtubers who pick it up apart and tell you what is being done wrong.

sullen nest Jul 27, 2020, 12:33 AM

#

yea i know what to do now

#

you install the cpu to the mobo first right?

#

then thermal paste if the cooler dosent come pre pasted

#

or whatever

#

put io shield in

#

put mother board in

#

ram

#

or already install ram before putting it in

#

SSD if youve got one too

#

right?

#

then GPU?

merry rune Jul 27, 2020, 12:38 AM

#

You can really do it in any order you want, but I tend to build out the motherboard as much as possible first (cpu/cooler/ram/m.2) and then put it in the case, connect front panel connectors/fans, then psu, run power to everything, and then gpu.

sullen nest Jul 27, 2020, 12:55 AM

#

ah

#

thanks 🙂

lone pond Jul 27, 2020, 7:39 AM

In the verge video the IO shield is referred to as the “bracket” 💀

#

How good is a 5600xt with vr?

kind wigeon Jul 27, 2020, 1:20 PM

#

@desert nest it's decent....

lone pond Jul 27, 2020, 1:20 PM

#

@desert nest it can run it well

kind wigeon Jul 27, 2020, 1:20 PM

#

will run any 60-90 hz 1080p headset like rift, rift s, or wired quest

#

I would reccomend getting a rtx card tho, bc some games with ray tracing (alyx, and more coming out) look super cool.

#

the rtx 2070 is a great card for the price, best with ray tracing... handles 1440p gaming and any headset like a boss

rigid crag Jul 27, 2020, 1:43 PM

#

So does a 2080ti 😏

fiery horizon Jul 27, 2020, 3:53 PM

#

Aaaaaaaaaantago, a 2060 super might also be a good buy with it performing very similar and being easy to find new

#

Thats what i have in my rig

arctic phoenix Jul 27, 2020, 4:36 PM

#

2060 super is similar to the 2070 in price soo

#

no need to downgrade if u can

soft kayak Jul 27, 2020, 4:50 PM

#

Is there like a large gaping difference between the 2070s and the 2080s

not too large, but there's a difference

Looking for a 2070 super ....ryzen 7 3700x x570 mobo 32g ram

#

Trying to stay around $499-550

lone pond Jul 27, 2020, 7:33 PM

#

So 2070 is not fairing so well in keeping up with 1440p/144hz. In destiny 2 on medium graphics, I wange from 85 to 120 fps.

It might be an obvious yes but would a 2080ti be a significant improvement for the cost?

rigid crag Jul 27, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

2080ti is the best you can get so.... yes

buoyant stone Jul 27, 2020, 7:47 PM

#

Keep in mind though new graphics card should be released soon

#

@muted vortex you want all those part for $499-550?

muted vortex Jul 27, 2020, 7:47 PM

No for gpu only

granite juniper Jul 28, 2020, 12:24 AM

#

i'd advise against watercooling a rx 580 because the cost of the loop/all the parts will be like twice the price of the card itself

#

I’m running a msi 1060 6gb card but it’s overheating and I have to use the afterburner too turn up the fans plus I’m getting white haze screens. Any ways is a msi 1650 4gb with Directx 12 a better card than the 1060

#

Are you there sir?

#

Is anybody here?

bitter jungle Jul 28, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

How long have you had it

#

The 1060

compact vortex Jul 28, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

Over 2 years bought it used and I changed the thermal paste and no change. So I found the 1650 msi 4gb and want to know is that card better than what I’m using

bitter jungle Jul 28, 2020, 4:25 PM

#

1650 super is going to be about the same I think

#

1650 non super will be worse

compact vortex Jul 28, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

The 1650 doesn’t say super just it has directx 12 4gb and OC

bitter jungle Jul 28, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

Then it’s gonna be worse

compact vortex Jul 28, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

It on the newegg eBay listing

bitter jungle Jul 28, 2020, 4:27 PM

1650 non super doesn’t have the greatest value unless you’re throwing it in a pre-built

compact vortex Jul 28, 2020, 4:28 PM

#

Right now if I run my card fans on auto the temp goes up to 160F

bitter jungle Jul 28, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

0.0

#

Wait. 160F?

#

That’s 71C

compact vortex Jul 28, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

With me controlling the fans it comes down to 140 range

bitter jungle Jul 28, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

Don’t measure in F

#

Measure in C

#

Anything under 85 degrees Celsius is totally fine

compact vortex Jul 28, 2020, 4:30 PM

#

I’m not good in measuring in C

bitter jungle Jul 28, 2020, 4:30 PM

#

Just switch whatever program you’re using to. Celsius

#

It’s literally just a number

#

If it’s under 85C, it’s good. And it looks like you’re good, because 160f is 71c

compact vortex Jul 28, 2020, 4:33 PM

fervent obsidian Jul 29, 2020, 4:43 AM

#

1660 super/2060/ rx 5600xt are 3 i think you can fit in that range

polar bronze Jul 29, 2020, 6:27 AM

#

I think he means 850 for the whole rig

half goblet Jul 29, 2020, 6:28 AM

#

ohhhhhhh

#

my bad

#

i thought he meant 850 for gpu

polar bronze Jul 29, 2020, 6:28 AM

#

just spend it all on a gpu, It will look pretty for you lol

half goblet Jul 29, 2020, 6:28 AM

#

yup

#

my bad

How big is the bottleneck for a 1080 ti with an i7 3770k running on 4.7ghz? my fps are dropping in lower classes even tho benchmarks have normal results. Thanks ! 😀

#

worth an Upgrade to recent sockel 1151? 4 cores 8 Threads with 4.7ghz not beatable under 500$ right?

sick timber Jul 29, 2020, 4:30 PM

#

@waxen birch well what is the setup looking like rn?

#

like the build itself

Tenor

#

lol,the fps goes up

#

with rtx on

#

@torn echo jump to i7 4770k ,that will run a 1080 ti just fine

arctic phoenix Jul 29, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

no

#

no

#

no

#

dont

#

just get a newer cpu/mobo at that point

#

why would u buy a new mobo and a cpu

#

for a slight perf increase

bitter jungle Jul 29, 2020, 5:57 PM

#

Lol. Best thing I’d pair a 3770K with is a 1070. It’ll almost definitely bottleneck hard with a 1080 ti @torn echo

safe flower Jul 29, 2020, 6:08 PM

#

it depends if he wants to drop down from a 1080 ti, little money now for 4770k and i use to have that set up which works great together

#

but a 1070 would be good so you dont have to change your mb/cpu

#

down to the $$

#

2 options , nice to have a choice

@safe flower why should I do that ? Isn’t the Sockel also old ? It’s not the same Sockel, I have 1155 I think 4770k is 1150 I think

i need to upgrade my mac mid 2012 to upgrade to mojave OS. I currently have an ATI Radeon HD 5770 installed. i don't game but i to a lot of photo editing. I researched a little and came up with these choices:
MSI Gaming Radeon RX 560 128-bit 4GB GDDR5
SAPPHIRE Radeon PULSE RX 580 8GB GDDR5
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 7950 Mac Edition
NVIDIA Quadro K5000 for Mac
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 Mac Edition
Any recommendations?

sage sigil Jul 29, 2020, 10:26 PM

#

Probably the rx 580 8gb

#

@tacit citrus

#

Its the most powerful

tacit citrus Jul 29, 2020, 10:29 PM

#

thanks

slim talon Jul 29, 2020, 11:33 PM

#

@daring bolt its funny because AMD is on 7nm and intel has been trying to work on 10nm for years now

#

or maybe not years

#

but its been a while

polar bronze Jul 29, 2020, 11:35 PM

#

Amd 7nm is not the same as intel 7nm

slim talon Jul 29, 2020, 11:36 PM

#

still

#

its still kinda funny tbh

polar bronze Jul 29, 2020, 11:36 PM

#

Actually 10nm is closer to tsmcs 5nm than 7nm

slim talon Jul 29, 2020, 11:36 PM

#

really?

polar bronze Jul 29, 2020, 11:36 PM

#

Yeah

slim talon Jul 29, 2020, 11:36 PM

#

well its kinda not very funny now

#

lol

granite juniper Jul 29, 2020, 11:42 PM

#

the problem is even rn intels yield rate for 10nm is super low at like 50% iirc

narrow lion Jul 29, 2020, 11:50 PM

#

Since you do photo editing, the CPU would be more of a worry, but the 580 should be absolutely fine for photo editing.

#

You might also want to invest in a more expensive monitor, as you need better colour accuracy

#

Rather than a crazy expensive gpu**

#

I mean, the 580 isnt crazy expensive anyways

wicked hound Jul 30, 2020, 12:42 AM

#

Not to mention that process size means nothing in terms of how advanced the CPU is. Heck, process size doesn't even say the size of the transister

Cause I've never come across one

runic trail Jul 30, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

I tried streaming with the NVENC encoder in rainbow six siege but my game kept averaging 100FPS and frequently (every 8 seconds) dip to 0 fps. when I'm not streaming, I average 150-200 FPS
I already tried reinstalling my drivers but that didn't make a difference

pine blaze Jul 30, 2020, 3:11 AM

#

Idk

little socket Jul 30, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

So if i go 1650 super i get cuda but 4gb vram, vs 580x with 8gb vram, does anyone know what the performance difference in games (and machine learning if anyone knows)

cerulean rover Jul 30, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

It's not normal that's all I could tell you @runic trail

#

@little socket 1650s wins in games in 1080p

royal root Jul 30, 2020, 4:02 AM

#

it lags somtimes

cerulean rover Jul 30, 2020, 4:02 AM

#

And cuda is much better for machine learning software

royal root Jul 30, 2020, 4:02 AM

#

in heavy games

#

i have a 1650

cerulean rover Jul 30, 2020, 4:03 AM

#

1650 super.

little socket Jul 30, 2020, 4:03 AM

#

Alright, should the 4gb be a concern? I so plan on upgraded maybe q1 2021 when new stuff comes out

royal root Jul 30, 2020, 4:03 AM

#

oh

cerulean rover Jul 30, 2020, 4:03 AM

#

Not really, in 1080p we haven't really passed the 4gb mark for high graphics settings

#

Ofc you wouldn't be expecting like 200fps ultra from a 1650s so

royal root Jul 30, 2020, 4:04 AM

#

what is the 1660 TI eqaulivent in raedon

little socket Jul 30, 2020, 4:04 AM

#

Alright makes me feel better, lol 😂 imma be pairing it with a 3700x, but at least it will force me to focus more on programming than gaming.

cerulean rover Jul 30, 2020, 4:04 AM

#

Uh 5600xt iirc

#

I mean not really

#

A half decent GPU allows you to enjoy games in med at high frame rates

#

But well programing is a nice thing to be doing

little socket Jul 30, 2020, 4:08 AM

#

Yeah, i mean anything is better than nothing, and i dont plan to play too many brand new aaa games

wicked hound Jul 30, 2020, 4:57 AM

#

5600xt beats to 1660Ti by a fair bit

#

dont think there is a Radeon competitor to 1660Ti. Maybe Fury X or smth

lone pond Jul 30, 2020, 8:59 AM

#

What gpu do you recommend for a i5 9600k

swift copper Jul 30, 2020, 11:47 AM

#

@lone pond it depends on what you're doing, but typically i go for whatever i can afford in my budget

#

like ill get everything priced out and then use all the rest of the budget on the card, unless i have a specific card in mind

sudden dove Jul 30, 2020, 1:32 PM

#

I was gaming the other day and noticed my pc was absurdly loud. I quickly realized it was my gpu which was producing the noise. I stress tested my gpu and my fans were running around 2700 rpm. 2700 rpm is around 100% fan speed.

The gpu temps during the test were around 75C. My fan curve is set up to run at 70% at 80C. 70% rpm equals around 2000 not 2700 rpm.

I tried setting the fan speed at a constant 70%. The fan speed was staying at a steady 70% when the gpu was not under load, as it should. When I stress tested it with the 70% fan speed at all times. My gpu would just ignore it again and start blowing at 100% speed.

My gpu alwasy does the 100% fan speed around 75C. I also tried tweaking with different fan curves and it still wouldn't work.

I really want to know why my gpu is ignoring the fan curve and blowing at 100 percent. I also would like to know how to solve this issue.

TLDR: My gpu is blowing at 100% fan speed, even though it should be blowing at a lower percentage. Pls help.

bitter jungle Jul 30, 2020, 2:34 PM

#

@sudden dove how long have you owned this GPU? Also, what software are you using to set a fan curve?

Hey all can anyone help me understand what the advantages of quadro cards over Geforce cards? In particular as it pertains to architecture work in like illustrator, photoshop, archGIS and rhino/plugins. I am looking for a new laptop for a grad program, the rest of the specs would be i7, 32gb ram, and deciding between like a geforce 2070 or Quadro T2000

lone pond Jul 30, 2020, 7:01 PM

#

Quadros are the hardcore stuff

#

For your job I would go for a Quadro

#

Only if it fits in your budget tho

#

If a Quadro is too expensive try a 2080 super

#

@merry remnant

wicked hound Jul 30, 2020, 7:02 PM

#

Don't go i7 ideally. AMD is much better at workstation tasks, esp in laptops

merry remnant Jul 30, 2020, 7:14 PM

#

I haven't seen/am not familiar with amd's stuff. I was under the impression that for vector based graphics and such my single core clock speed would be what I wanted to maximize.

#

@lone pond Its for a grad program

#

I was looking between like the 2070 on the new dell G7 or like the T2000 on the thinkpad p1 gen 2

lone pond Jul 30, 2020, 7:15 PM

#

Oh a grad program

#

I say get the 2070 then upgrade later in the year maybe next year

merry remnant Jul 30, 2020, 7:16 PM

#

for what I'm spending I would be willing to go the extra if the T2000 offered significant advantages though

#

ah

lone pond Jul 30, 2020, 7:16 PM

#

Yeah there are advantages

#

You could go for it

#

And yeah AMD cpu's are better

#

You should try to find like a Ryzen 9

merry remnant Jul 30, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

ok, I'll look for that. you think id regret not going for the quadro sooner when I upgrade?

lone pond Jul 30, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

hmm hard to tell

#

you should run a benchmark

#

i personally dont know how much better it is

#

compare the gpus using a site called userbenchmark.com

merry remnant Jul 30, 2020, 7:22 PM

#

yeah when I see benchmarks a lot of them seemed to have more to do with gameplay performance than like vector graphics. especially in the overlap of the low end quadro high end geforce. Ill take a look and read everything on that site though. thanks for all the help

lone pond Jul 30, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

yw Nice

#

do you have to go to the bios, to "activate" your gpu and cpu?

i have such a weird issue

#

i just replaced my rtx 2070 super.. running it with z490 and i7 10th gen

#

cause it was Coil Whining

#

its still Coil Whining but only when I turn off one monitor it's so weird

ill pay 50$ in crypto whoever helps me pm pls 😛

bitter jungle Jul 30, 2020, 10:13 PM

#

@lone pond are you sure it’s your GPU? Could be your PSU or monitor

#

Also pretty sure paying people to help you isn’t allowed on this server lol

lone pond Jul 30, 2020, 10:14 PM

#

i replacedf the gpu

#

and psu

bitter jungle Jul 30, 2020, 10:14 PM

#

What PSU model do you have

lone pond Jul 30, 2020, 10:14 PM

#

both monitors do the same when unplugged in windows

#

the gpu starts to make loud noise

#

850 g3 evga

bitter jungle Jul 30, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

The monitors make a noise when they’re unplugged?

lone pond Jul 30, 2020, 10:16 PM

#

No

#

The GPU does

#

It feels like the GPU or the Motherboard can't handle the screens when they are idle

#

Guess with voltage.. it's really weird

bitter jungle Jul 30, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

Try clearing your motherboard’s CMOS

shut rampart Jul 30, 2020, 11:29 PM

#

Uhh will a 600W psu be able to handle the new Ampere cards?

#

Have heard they’ll draw upwards of 300W

hollow zephyr Jul 30, 2020, 11:31 PM

#

Possibly

buoyant stone Jul 30, 2020, 11:31 PM

#

Possibly... there are a lot of unknowns

#

All rumors for now

bitter jungle Jul 30, 2020, 11:31 PM

#

depends on the GPU and the PSU. If it's a bad PSU and a high end GPU, no. If it's a good PSU and a mid-range GPU (like 3070) probably. if you have a 10900k and 3080/3090 or whatever it is then nah

hollow zephyr Jul 31, 2020, 12:04 AM

#

Well they are gonna have the new 12 pin connections

#

So current psus might not even work

granite juniper Jul 31, 2020, 12:43 AM

#

afaik you can just buy an adapter and they should work

shut rampart Jul 31, 2020, 1:42 AM

You can play that game on integrated graphics

#

Prolly less than $150

proper dragon Jul 31, 2020, 1:51 AM

#

$220 for both

hollow zephyr Jul 31, 2020, 1:52 AM

#

Um maybe

hollow zephyr Jul 31, 2020, 2:06 AM

#

Ok

#

So

#

You mind spending $30 extra?

#

If you do then I'll switch it up a bit

#

@proper dragon

#

For sure a ryzen 3100

#

But for gpu either an rx 570 or 580

#

Ur pick tbh

proper dragon Jul 31, 2020, 2:09 AM

#

Is refurbished good

jovial ferry Jul 31, 2020, 2:13 AM

#

Depends on what your buying and who fixed it

proper dragon Jul 31, 2020, 2:20 AM

Well you only got $220 bruh

#

Idk if you wanna stretch that into like $50 cpu

proper dragon Jul 31, 2020, 2:39 AM

wary anvil Jul 31, 2020, 3:19 AM

#

@proper dragon Would recommend an rx 580 and whatever AMD cpu fits

proper dragon Jul 31, 2020, 3:20 AM

#

Ok is the 1650 super good for r6

wary anvil Jul 31, 2020, 3:20 AM

#

It's okay, but not great

#

You'd be better off with the rx 580. I bit more performence for the same price

#

As for cpu, is there any reason you have to use intel?

#

Cause the 9100f is gonna be barely adequate

hollow zephyr Jul 31, 2020, 3:49 AM

#

^^^

#

He's just getting the cheapest

#

I said refurbed 580 and 3100

#

For $20 more

You could go used market if you’re looking for a good deal on older pascal gpu’s, but amd’s 5600xt isnt a bad card for the price

umbral ivy Jul 31, 2020, 5:17 PM

I would wait for the new gpu launches tbh it would force nvidia and aib’s to lower prices for the rtx 2000 series to get rid of stock

But like in general , what’s the best company

umbral ivy Jul 31, 2020, 5:48 PM

the super variants or Ti are going to be worth your while, amd's 5600xt or 5700 would be good alternatives if not better,

hushed stirrup Jul 31, 2020, 6:09 PM

I prefer Zotac's 5 year warranty tho unless I plan to change my gpu within 3 years time.

bitter jungle Jul 31, 2020, 6:10 PM

#

the super variants or Ti are going to be worth your while, amd's 5600xt or 5700 would be good alternatives if not better,

Personally, I think the super is the only variant that’s good value. 1660 and 1660 TI have too high price tags

granite juniper Jul 31, 2020, 6:11 PM

#

yeah 1650 super and 1660 super are the only good 16xx cards really rn

bitter jungle Jul 31, 2020, 6:12 PM

#

Definitely

#

1650 non super can be okay if you’re throwing it in a pre-build but even then it’s still not the greatest

2070 will provide you with a slight increase in performance compared to the 2060 (S) just shy of 2% increase

rocky void Jul 31, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

Ahh I was wondering because they were both the same price so I wasn’t sure what to go with

umbral ivy Jul 31, 2020, 7:41 PM

if you want to save a few bucks going for this gigabyte model wouldn't be that bad either, its $399 and has a $15 off discount with code GBTVGAFS39

If i bought a RTX 2060 would it be bottlenecked by my i5-9400F

please @ me with an answer

of course not

@royal root Depends on what resolution you're playing at as a first question, if you'

re playing csgo at 1080 it might cap you but it would be at like 3-400 fps lol

Thats a cpu

#

But a 3600 would go good with a 1660s, or Rtx 20xxSuper series

#

Ive heard overclocked 3600(x) can go with 2080ti

just wait few months and new gpus should be coming

So for some reason when I am playing Warzone with my EVGA 2070 Super, I will be in the lobby, after hours of gameplay. When I load into the actual match randomly it's like my GPU won't boost. It will only go to like 80 frames. I have to relaunch the game for it to finally boost again. Any ideas? Drivers are up-to-date

Does the 1660 super support 1440p or only 1080p?

granite juniper Aug 2, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

both

lone pond Aug 2, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

Oh nice

#

And how many hz would be good for a monitor? 120hz?

granite juniper Aug 2, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

just guessing it has modern dp/hdmi ports it should be fine for 4k or 8k

#

1080p 144hz would be a good spot for the card

lone pond Aug 2, 2020, 5:22 PM

Ok thanks

#

what brand of gpus should i look for with a amd ryzen

wary anvil Aug 2, 2020, 5:24 PM

There are good ones and bad ones, but they don't really care whether it's amd or intel

lone pond Aug 2, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

ok thanks

#

@granite juniper does it matter whether I get a free sync or g sync monitor?

#

Because I'm thinking of upgrading to an rtx 2070 super in the future

upper mural Aug 2, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

@hollow zephyr simple. The 2070 super has better performance, and none of the finicky behavior

granite juniper Aug 2, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

you can run nvidia cards on freesync monitors, gsync is better but usually a decent amount more

lone pond Aug 2, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

Hmm I guess I'll look into a g sync monitor better to get a better one right now than keep having to upgrade monitors

hollow zephyr Aug 2, 2020, 5:42 PM

@upper mural ya cause it costs like $100 more ROFLEgg

upper mural Aug 2, 2020, 5:43 PM

That’s the reason I have a 5700xt. But my experience thus far tells me I should have just spent the extra 70$

hollow zephyr Aug 2, 2020, 5:44 PM

You updated the drivers??

upper mural Aug 2, 2020, 5:45 PM

Of course. I will say my card is fine. Except for wattman that keeps resetting my settings such as turning on zero fan when I’ve disabled it

Could I have never heard my GPU whining until a few days ago because I always had the back of my PC, where all sound can come out, away from me?

limpid latch Aug 3, 2020, 3:33 AM

#

only gsync monitors w/ a module make a big difference, but driver compatibility for ones without gsync compatibility, unless its a va panel they will flicker, i dont believe ips will flicker if its just freesync

quasi flicker Aug 3, 2020, 3:33 AM

I have a Gigabyte Windoforce OC 3X 2070 Super

limpid latch Aug 3, 2020, 3:36 AM

some gpus coil wine, definitely way more at obsurdly high fps

quasi flicker Aug 3, 2020, 3:37 AM

Only at 144 fps

limpid latch Aug 3, 2020, 3:37 AM

id warranty it or exchange then

quasi flicker Aug 3, 2020, 3:37 AM

It's not loud but I think I just never noticed it before

limpid latch Aug 3, 2020, 3:37 AM

#

not that its bad, they are just loud and that would get annoyting

#

say if you water cooled it, it would resinate more i bet

#

i tried a 290x for a day and that thing coil wined, exchanged it for 780ti instead. idk i never liked amd cards, the drivers and quality of product

polar bronze Aug 3, 2020, 3:39 AM

#

I will never get an amd cared due to my workflow

quasi flicker Aug 3, 2020, 3:39 AM

#

It seems like people fixed it by lowering the power levels

#

Or raising it a bit in some cases

limpid latch Aug 3, 2020, 3:40 AM

#

i mean that can do it, but normally on say my 1080ti even w/ water block on it, you wont hear it unless doing performance test benchmark and its like 3-4000fps

quasi flicker Aug 3, 2020, 3:41 AM

#

Okay

#

I couldnt hear it until I turned my PC a bit

limpid latch Aug 3, 2020, 3:42 AM

#

idk such low fps id just warranty it how old is it?

quasi flicker Aug 3, 2020, 3:42 AM

#

About 5 months

#

But I think I just never noticed it otherwise

#

I'll try turning it back tmr and see what happens

limpid latch Aug 3, 2020, 3:42 AM

#

well they would exchange it probably and youd have a new card again

#

5 months newer lol

#

some of the companies do upgrade program too...

quasi flicker Aug 3, 2020, 3:43 AM

#

It doesn't make any sound while it's sitting there

#

Wdym?

limpid latch Aug 3, 2020, 3:44 AM

#

let you pay the difference to upgrade to a different higher tier gpu

#

i know evga does it but dunno about other brands

#

within a certain time period

quasi flicker Aug 3, 2020, 3:46 AM

#

Okay, thanks for the help. I'll test tmr and see if I can hear it with my PC the same way I had it for a while

#

It seems to also have some kind of dumb problem where I have to update the graphics drivers or any full-screen game flashes black

#

Reinstall not update

#

Might be fr not restarting after driver updates but idk

limpid latch Aug 3, 2020, 3:49 AM

i really never had any problems with nvidia gpus, only amd, and i had lots of nvidia from 7900gtx sli, 9800gtx gtx 470, 780ti, 980ti sli, 1080ti.. waiting on 3080 or 3090 whatever it will be.. skiped 2080ti

i had only 3 amd gpus ever, and only kept one in a 2nd pc while back

the 280x was meh, and 290x like said had the coil wine

onyx dust Aug 4, 2020, 2:26 PM

#

Hello,
I need to update at least the graphics card of my desktop computer I put together 5 years ago.
I will be working with 4k video editing.
Not sure of my budget yet but not looking to pay more than $500 on parts if possible. Open to your suggestions, thank you!

Also if there's anything else I should be considering upgrading, please suggest. Sorry I don't have the specs for my current setup with me right now.

bitter jungle Aug 4, 2020, 2:39 PM

#

@grizzled nimbus lol. I’ve see. GTX 970s go for less than some RX 570s. They’re in high demand

#

@onyx dust best you could get with $500 is like an RTX 2070 super, but this could bottleneck your CPU so we need to know your PCs specs

worldly pier Aug 4, 2020, 2:58 PM

#

Hey daddy

onyx dust Aug 4, 2020, 3:02 PM

#

@bitter jungle Thanks, I'll return with the specs in a couple days. Any particular info I should collect towards this?

bitter jungle Aug 4, 2020, 3:08 PM

#

@onyx dust probably CPU model, amount of RAM, and PSU make and model

hushed stirrup Aug 4, 2020, 3:09 PM

#

I am still using 970 and it is still performing well for many games. Only the latest game will need medium setting.

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 3:10 PM

#

@onyx dust For a video editing rig: CPU, GPU, RAM, STORAGE are the ones that matter. However, for the sake of only having to ask once. Add in the PSU model.

bitter jungle Aug 4, 2020, 3:11 PM

Thank you!

bitter jungle Aug 4, 2020, 3:35 PM

#

You have some outdated specs for sure

#

I’d recommend an entire system upgrade tbh

#

But if you want some quick upgrades, I’d say upgrade the RAM, and then maybe GPU?

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 3:38 PM

#

I'd go GPU first. But extra RAM shouldnt be too much

onyx dust Aug 4, 2020, 3:46 PM

#

Yes, eventually I'll try to upgrade it all, but can only afford a couple necessities right now.
Would you recommend any specific brand/model of GPU and RAM? Would the RTX 2070 super bottleneck my CPU?

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

@onyx dust the bottleneck is the other way around. The CPU will be the limiting factor. (in that comparison)

I would personally take a good hard look at the actual needs (computer wise) that you have.

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

So I'm AFKing in the 2b2t queue on Minecraft and when I hit F1 (to hide the GUI) my GPU started whining like CRAZY

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

@quasi flicker most likely because that uncaps the framerate

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

This happened after I replaced my CPU cooler, could this have anything to do with it?

#

This is the 2nd CPU cooler apart from stock

#

The one I had before didn't fit and had too many connections

#

So I went back to stock and it started whining

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

it should not be related, unless you somehow damaged your GPU while you installed the CPU cooler.

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

But now it's louder after I installed the cooler that works better than stock

#

Could it be because I put my case on it's side so that my mobo was to the floor?

#

It whines normally in games other than Minecraft too

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:23 PM

#

Breathe mate

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:23 PM

#

Not anywhere close to as loud but it's still there

#

Okay lol

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:23 PM

#

we cannot answer 10 questions at once :)

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:23 PM

#

Good point xD

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:23 PM

#

well, we can, but confusion is normally the result :)

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

Okay

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

lets start by looking at the CPU cooler change.

#

You had a non-stock cooler on it, that you then changed back to the stock?

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:25 PM

#

Yes because it didn't fit and had too many mobo connections

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:25 PM

#

okay. Generally, a CPU cooler change, will NOT impact what the GPU cooler does

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

So I used stock until my current one came and installed the new one when it got here

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

so, the reason for the "whine" is (most likely) somewhere else

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

Any clue why it only started after I tried the first one?

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

was there a minecraft update in between ?

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

No

#

I'm using an older version anyway but this has never happened before

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

gpu driver update?

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

No update I don't think

#

I could try a reinstall later though

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

"never happended before" <- things happen for the first time at some point :)

#

reason i am asking about this, is that logically (from a Part POV) there is no connection between the CPU cooler and the GPU cooler.

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

Btw I still have warranty just incase

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

@quasi flicker keep in mind, i have basically no idea about minecraft (i have never played it), but is there a vsync option?

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

Yes

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

you got that enabled?

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

No

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

try and enable that (keep in mind, you might have to restart the game for it to take effect)

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

I normally cap it at 145 though because Minecraft VSync is wonky

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:34 PM

#

you on a 144 panel?

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:34 PM

#

Yes, Minecraft only goes by intergers of 5 though

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:34 PM

#

aye aye

#

normally/generally. When GPU load goes crazy (its because the framerate is going bonkers OR because a shader is running berserk somewhere)

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:36 PM

#

But I've done the exact thing at some point and nothing happened except for the fans speeding up a bit

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:36 PM

#

(example of that from ages ago: Warframe had a tileset, where IF you looked out a particular window, instant jet-engine on most GPU's)

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:36 PM

#

lol

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:36 PM

#

that was a simple shader that had been uncapped. Just a random typo really

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:37 PM

#

I'll get a recording of the sound when I get home

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:37 PM

#

no rush

#

how old is the GPU?

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:38 PM

#

About 5 months

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:38 PM

#

very dusty room?

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:38 PM

#

Also, in the queue for the server you're in an empty thing of black and dark purple

#

No

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:39 PM

#

"empty thing of black and dark purple" <- that you can "see" anything, means it is not technically empty :)

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:42 PM

#

It is

#

I can actually see everything with the clients I have

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:43 PM

#

"that anything is showing on your screen" = not empty from a GPU POV

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:43 PM

#

It's just an empty version of the end dimension

#

No, if anything is rendered I can see it with the client

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

you are misunderstanding :)

#

if "anything" is being shown on the screen. as in, the fact that you can "see" anything at all, even something that looks empty. Means that the GPU is doing "something"

#

and technically, nothing could be shown on the screen, and the GPU could STILL be busy

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

Only the skybox and my half transparent head is what I can see

#

Okay so in Minecraft terms I should say JoyEgg

#

Nothing is being rendered other than my head's and the skybox

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

correct :)

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

Sorry lol

and yes, i am aware that it sounds like nitpicking, but for your specific problem/context, it actually matters :)

#

nothing to be sorry about, it is not a way that you would normally have to "think" about your GPU

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

Normally it's fine just in F1 it sounds like a car sliding

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

Nothing is being rendered other than my head's and the skybox
not always true, could be rendering the chunk below you you are in

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

I'm using Impact Hei

#

And it's 2b2t lobby in an empty end dimension world

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 4:53 PM

#

so FPS is capped and nothing is being loaded?

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

No it's uncapped but it was normally anyway and I would get about 300 FPS without the, GPU go brrrr, part.

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

again, that depends on what is actually happening

#

see the Warframe example earlier

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

Also when I exit F1 it goes to over 1.5k FPS

#

It shows*

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

basically, when coil whine can happen

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

It also happens in Fortnite but not as horrible

#

And a little in Subnautica

rigid crag Aug 4, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

Glad to see you again Naed :)

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

Which PSU you have?

#

could be both

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

Corsair CXM 650W 80+ Bronze Semi-modular

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

Most likely a GPU/PSU combo of coil whine then.
GPU for MC (and other games) at high FPS
PSU for Fortnite/Subnautica at high power loads

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

likewise @rigid crag

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 5:04 PM

#

It never happened before I tried to replace my cooler tho

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

see what i said earlier about that :)

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

Could laying my PC down on the side so I could access my CPU better have caused that?

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 5:05 PM

normally no

but this is the "joy" of pc building. Anything can happen.

the trick is figuring out IF anything has happended.

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

Btw it was that loud with my case closed

#

Also, I have a Gigabyte 2070 Super WindForce OC 3X

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 5:09 PM

#

small changes can trigger large effects

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 5:09 PM

#

Thanks auto-correct, WindoForce cards 260% exist

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

but yeah, coil whine is one of the worst consumer PC noises

#

apart from maybe some pop/bang of a component blowing up

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 5:11 PM

#

Last time I tried to record what is sounded like my phone couldn't get it but it was quiter then

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 5:12 PM

#

idk, lot of people seem to have trouble with recording coil whine

#

heard a fair few people try to record it and then when listening to the video I rarely hear it

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 5:13 PM

#

I wonder if it's just so high pitched mics can't really pick it up

#

I guess that's what we have audio editors for tho

#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

a "intelligent" mic can easily decide that it is background noise. Hence why IF you are trying to record it, Do a couple of recordings, at least one of them being with you talking quietly while recording

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 5:17 PM

#

I have RTX Voice xD

#

Nah mobile would probably be better tho

#

I think I've turned off block out background stuff

#

Now that I hear it again, it's basically the same as when I play Fortnite except when Fortnite is running the fans are louder so they're drowning it out

#

What the sound editor again @spice prawn?

#

nvm I got it

#

Well I recorded it but you cant hear it on PC, at all

#

It only happens when I have FPS uncapped

#

Also VSync isn't wonky on this version

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 5:34 PM

#

yeah, generally high FPS causes coil whine

#

for basically most GPUs

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

It still does it at 144 FPS on Fortnite with all settings but shadows maxed, any ideas?

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

listen closely to it, is it PSU or GPU for FN?

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 5:36 PM

#

GPU

#

I turned volume all the way down and it was there from the same place my GPU is at

#

I'll try it with afterburner on and see what happens

#

Here is it with 2000s level quality because I can't use the snipping tool or it stops 😂

#

📎 IMG_20200804_113816078.jpg

#

Do you think running it like this for a bit might make it stop or kill it?

#

Dumb ideas 100

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

wont kill it, but anytime it's running at high FPS like that 1.5k it'll coil whine

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

Only about 50% utilization too

#

My CPU was 51°C because I also have two Discord bots, a Minecraft server, and ngrok running

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

what is this, MC?

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

yeah Minecraft

#

In 2b2t queue -_-

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

well MC doesnt use GPU much so dont expect 100% usage unless shaders in a more packed place

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

So it's an empty end Dimension world

wicked hound Aug 4, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

either way, capping to 145 should help a lot in terms of fixing it

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

VSync seems to not be as buggy in 1.12.2 so that's a +

@cyan swift If you're going to get a 3rd gen Ryzen at least get the 2060 Super

stuck siren Aug 4, 2020, 8:12 PM

#

I have an rx 590 8GB. I want to water cool my setup but the 590 doesn’t have any water blocks that I trust. So I was thinking about upgrading my GPU to a Vega and maybe running crossfire so then I can water oil my CPU and GPU with the EKFluid gaming a240g. Would it be worth it?

#

I also have a 570 in a back room that I could use to crossfire if the day it is too big

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 8:12 PM

#

If you're upgrading just to water cool and don't need the extra performance, no

stuck siren Aug 4, 2020, 8:13 PM

#

I guess everyone could use more performance. That’s where I’m at rn.

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 8:13 PM

What kind of CPU do you have? Your GPU could be held back by it if the CPU isn't fast enough

stuck siren Aug 4, 2020, 8:13 PM

#

Ryzen 7 2700X

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 8:14 PM

Oh, you should just get a 5700XT or something way better then

#

I have that CPU with a 2070 Super

stuck siren Aug 4, 2020, 8:16 PM

#

Maybe. It’s not compatible with the Watercooling kit I’m looking at but maybe I can look around and find another

#

Is the 5700 XT better than the Vega

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 8:19 PM

#

Yes

stuck siren Aug 4, 2020, 8:19 PM

#

Ok

quasi flicker Aug 4, 2020, 8:19 PM

#

Also newer

stuck siren Aug 4, 2020, 8:20 PM

I mean I’m looking at game-debate rn and it’s definitely close but it says the Vega is a little better but not 90 dollars better. Thanks for the advice

I’ll go with the 5700

unless you like pain and suffering that is. If that is your jam, then by all means, crossfire all the things :)

stuck siren Aug 4, 2020, 8:49 PM

#

Oof sounds like you have had some experience. What happened. Is it really that bad?? XD

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 8:50 PM

#

its just the reality of crossfire/sli in regular game use

#

the only place where crossfire/sli makes any sense, is in "silly amounts of money vs logical sense" builds

#

and even there i would strongly suggest not going that way

wary anvil Aug 4, 2020, 8:54 PM

#

To be fair, there are use cases for multi GPU. They just don't overlap with the use cases of gaming or the powers of an rx 590

stuck siren Aug 4, 2020, 8:55 PM

#

So a lot of the reason I wanted crossfire was because I have a 144Hz monitor but 2 60hz monitors that a company was about to throw away. So now my refresh rate is like 59 Hz and I want to get the smoothness at least a little back

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 8:56 PM

#

that is a setting in your control panel for the GPU

#

not a question of crossfire

wary anvil Aug 4, 2020, 8:57 PM

#

Yeah, you can run each monitor at different speeds

stuck siren Aug 4, 2020, 8:58 PM

#

Oh I read that the refresh rate is default to your lowest refresh rate

#

Depending on your monitor

spice prawn Aug 4, 2020, 8:59 PM

that is only IF you go with a locked scaler

Hm I just panic bought an RTX 2070 super for $500 because I was watching refresh by refresh other RTX 2070s go out of stock immediately after reading an article confirming the fact that Nvidia is discontinuing the rtx 20 series... was this a good idea? I was planning on buying it later or shopping around for some different same class GPUs but then I read that article and got freaked

#

The 2070 super will still be available for quite some time

#

There's a rumor that the chip fabs have stopped producing new dies, but that doesn't mean you won't be able to buy one anymore

#

Hm

#

Perhaps that wasnt the smartest move but that's the most expensive part and frankly if I return it I dont think I'll be able to muster up the cahones to buy something for 500 bucks again.

Should've waited for the next gen imo

Right around the corner

I just bough an RTX 2060 a few weeks ago, it’s still unopened in its box, and I was wondering if I should sell it on eBay for around $280, I got mine for around $290 so I’d lose $10, but it might be worth it when next gen GPUs launch. What do you guys think?

hollow zephyr Aug 6, 2020, 6:24 PM

#

Why not just return it @timid wind

@timid wind it sells for more than 290 retail doesnt it??

timid wind Aug 6, 2020, 8:30 PM

#

@hollow zephyr My return period is up

#

@alpine geyser I got mine on sale, and it had a $20 rebate

alpine geyser Aug 6, 2020, 8:57 PM

#

@timid wind that’s really good tho, price high and see if it sells unless you need the money right now though. Never hurts

timid wind Aug 6, 2020, 8:58 PM

#

@alpine geyser Ok, would you recommend selling and waiting for new GPUs over just keeping it?

lone pond Aug 6, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

I'm just waiting for the RTX 3080 TI or 3090 whichever is better for gaming big upgrade for me since i got the 1070

open spade Aug 6, 2020, 10:35 PM

#

As far as we know that won’t happen for another 2 years

#

Also a 2080 super is a massive upgrade from a 1070 you can do now

spice prawn Aug 6, 2020, 10:36 PM

#

@open spade i think you are either misinformed or misreading.

open spade Aug 6, 2020, 10:37 PM

#

I don’t remember hearing any new for a 3080 series

spice prawn Aug 6, 2020, 10:38 PM

#

this year

open spade Aug 6, 2020, 10:39 PM

#

Is there an article you can source or is that just an assumption?

spice prawn Aug 6, 2020, 10:39 PM

#

all the forums that deal with tech have been blabbering about it since the start of the year

fervent obsidian Aug 6, 2020, 10:40 PM

#

and i'm pretty sure the new amd gpus are launching in the new consoles this year

#

either that or before

spice prawn Aug 6, 2020, 10:40 PM

#

also, there is very little chance that Nvidia would let AMD launch their next gen without "something" from them.

#

because nvidia are (on the desktop side of things) in the stronger position as things stand right now.

open spade Aug 6, 2020, 10:40 PM

#

The new consoles do not have any next gen graphics cards

spice prawn Aug 6, 2020, 10:41 PM

#

Excuse me?

#

i dont know where you are reading your news, but that is just false.

open spade Aug 6, 2020, 10:41 PM

Dwella said that

spice prawn Aug 6, 2020, 10:41 PM

@fervent obsidian both.

#

Xbox has their own custom integrated gpu

spice prawn Aug 6, 2020, 10:42 PM

@open spade we have known, for a LONG time that the upcoming consoles will ship with next gen amd gpu's
