2080s

2080ti

#

5700xt

#

titan rtx

idle crow
#

wish wasn’t so expensive

quick pawn
#

You don’t need better

lone pond
#

quadro

#

tesla

#

anymore

#

you want to know

quick pawn
#

I have a 1080 and can run whatever game I want at 60-300 FPS

lone pond
#

oh yea

#

1080

#

1080ti

#

any more

#

u want to know

idle crow
#

i just want to be able to play ark survival evolved above 120 fps

lone pond
#

high

#

max

#

what

idle crow
#

high

#

1080 p

lone pond
#

what cpu

idle crow
#

3600

lone pond
#

around 100 fps

#

but they only have one sample

rigid crag
#

5700xt isn't a bad option

lone pond
#

so it might go a little up or a little down

#

yea

#

5700xt should be good

#

can you afford a 2070s

idle crow
#

what cpu should i have gotten

lone pond
#

cpu doesn't really matter

idle crow
#

also my computer is built alrdy

lone pond
#

its fine

#

its a good cpu

idle crow
#

i should’ve just got the new xbox

lone pond
#

no

#

if you can afford a 2070s then go for it

#

or else wait

#

and save up

#

ur build is good

quick pawn
#

Just wait out don’t buy more stuff

#

Nvidia 3000 series are coming out later this or next year so the 2070s will probably drop in price

idle crow
#

i want an ikea desk with dual Alex drawers

quick pawn
#

This is how much I’ve spent so far maybe even more and I don’t even got a monitor yet

#

The ikea desk and Alex drawer setup ain’t that bad at all

idle crow
#

i’m 15 and it’s hard to come across good coin

quick pawn
#

Understandable, but yeah man you’re probably fine with a 2060 super

#

And you said you wanted more FPS right?

#

Does your monitor even support high FPS?

idle crow
#

144hz

#

1ms

fervent obsidian
#

id get a dif monitor

idle crow
#

too late

fervent obsidian
#

rip

#

it's fine though

idle crow
#

i like it

#

it can go vertical and can be mounted

fervent obsidian
#

nice

west relic
#

what gpu should i get for a 3600

celest wave
#

Budget?

west relic
#

under 1000

celest wave
#

I mean

#

You can get a 2080 super for under 1000

west relic
#

no i mean 1000 for the whole build

#

lol

celest wave
#

It I don't remember if 3600 bottlenecks at that

#

Okok

#

Lol

#

What's left in the budget

west relic
#

300

wary anvil
#

1660 super then

celest wave
#

2060 is around 300

west relic
#

can that handle siege at ultra?

#

or stream?

celest wave
#

I mean yeah but most people turn things down for visibility anyway

west relic
#

ah

wary anvil
#

have you already purchased the rest of the parts?

west relic
#

no

#

just the cpu and storage

wary anvil
#

What storage?

west relic
#

m.2 nvmwe

#

*nvme

wary anvil
#

Which one?

celest wave
#

Capacity?

west relic
#

500

#

970 evo

wary anvil
#

oof

#

Okay

celest wave
#

Gosh that's expensive

west relic
#

i need it for video editing

wary anvil
#

I was gonna say you could move some budget around and get the 2060 super, but that isn't gonna happen

celest wave
#

Depends on the other parts really

wary anvil
#

For future reference, that drive is very overpriced

celest wave
#

Video editing needs a lot of storage doesn't it?

wary anvil
#

Usually, yeah

west relic
#

yeah, im planning on getting a 2 tb hdd later

celest wave
#

Oh that's like $50

#

But yeah 970 Evo is a bit much

wary anvil
#

Yeah

#

mp34 500 GB usually goes for about 65

celest wave
#

You could get like a wd nvme tb SSD for like ~120 I believe

wary anvil
#

For TLC, probably 130
QLC maybe 110

celest wave
#

What's the other parts?

#

Maybe we could find some other stuff to shave down

west relic
#

can i send a link?

#

somehow?

#

i have a pcpartpicker

wary anvil
#

Take the https off the front

west relic
wary anvil
#

Probably don't need 700W

#

Or the KO

west relic
#

the ko was just afiller

wary anvil
#

Or the Super expensive mobo

celest wave
#

700w is a bit oberkill

west relic
#

you think so?

celest wave
#

Overkill*

wary anvil
#

Do you need wifi?

west relic
#

No

#

i was also looking at the b450 aorus pro

celest wave
#

Tomohawk is nice but you could probably get away with cheaper

west relic
#

hmm

wary anvil
celest wave
#

Meshify c is good and all but I think you could get a p400a for a similar price

wary anvil
#

Gigabyte ds3h

west relic
#

whats the difference?

wary anvil
#

Difference for what?

celest wave
#

P400a comes with 3 fans and slightly better thermals

wary anvil
#

Focus G is also really good for budget builds

celest wave
#

True

#

275r airflow ain't that bad either right?

west relic
#

does the 1660 s have the n venc encoder

wary anvil
#

Most cases have decent airflow, especially for a low tier build

#

Yes

#

I believe this fits the budget, no?

west relic
#

yes

celest wave
#

You plan on overclocking?

wary anvil
#

Cool

#

No

west relic
#

maybe a bit

celest wave
#

Oh yeah the mb

wary anvil
#

Ryzen pretty much overclocks itself

west relic
#

you think the jump from the 1660 s to a 2060/s is worth the dough?

celest wave
#

Wraith stelth ain't so great for the 3600 though

wary anvil
#

Yes, totally worth it

celest wave
#

It's a pretty big difference

west relic
#

i could wait till christmas to get a 2060 s

celest wave
#

2060 super is close to 2070 performance

wary anvil
#

The 2060 super fits in your budget now though

west relic
#

what i could do is get a 1660 s now and sell it to upgrade to a 2060 s ~christmas time

celest wave
#

Uh why?

#

Isn't it within budget?

wary anvil
#

Why not just get the 2060s now?

#

That last list I sent had it fit in $50 under budget

celest wave
#

Also if you want to know a little cash on the meshify you could go solid metal side panel

west relic
#

for the power supply how do wattage do you thunk i will really be getting

celest wave
#

Save*

wary anvil
#

500W would be fine. I can bump it up if you want though

west relic
#

cause later i would be getting that 2 tb hdd and a couple of fans and maybe an aftermarket cooler

celest wave
#

Gold is nice but you could probably find a bronze with slightly higher wattage

wary anvil
#

Should be fine even then. Those don't draw a lot of power

celest wave
#

3600 is only what 65 tdp?

wary anvil
#

Yeah

#

500W is totally fine

celest wave
#

Obviously higher under load but it's pretty efficient

west relic
#

i was looking at the evga 700 gd for ~$90

#

that worth it?

wary anvil
#

No

west relic
#

overkill?

wary anvil
#

yes

celest wave
#

2060 super is only 175 watts too

wary anvil
#

Also not the best PSU

west relic
#

gotcha

celest wave
#

I mean you could power a 2080 to and much much more with a 650w

west relic
#

how is be quiet in the psu department?

wary anvil
#

Solid

west relic
#

ok

wary anvil
#

Not the best, but very good

west relic
#

good enough?

celest wave
#

Seasonic is pretty good too right?

granite juniper
#

model>brand

wary anvil
#

Some of them are

#

Pure Power 11 Nachos

granite juniper
#

no that was just a general statement i wasnt paying attention

wary anvil
#

We need a model > brand emoji

west relic
#

well thanks guys, i will take into consideration what you guys have said and maybe will drop a few pics in the build pics chat

granite juniper

wary anvil
#

Hi forks!

granite juniper
wary anvil
#

We need a new emoji

torpid garden
#

Make one

wary anvil
#

Will do

torpid garden
#

Should I make one like that peepo that says model > brand? lol

granite juniper
#

yall wanna see my ms paint skills

wary anvil
#

The > is fuzzy, hang on...

#

Fixed now

torpid garden
granite juniper
celest wave
#

Beautiful

wary anvil
#

Very nice

granite juniper
#

mine is way easier on the eyes and just better

celest wave
#

Belongs in the Louvre

torpid garden
granite juniper
#

yes you can barely read it perfect

wary anvil
#

I love it

celest wave
#

It's scuffed and beautiful

wary anvil
#

Horrible pink is better

granite juniper
celest wave
#

Needs more scuffed feel

#

Make the background the solid png

#

Look

wary anvil
vast anchor
#

If I could post images I could lol

cerulean rover
#

I love that emoji

wary anvil
#

There

#

@vast anchor If you DM me your creation I'll post it for you

granite juniper
#

no u need those stock photo words over it

torpid garden
#

I gave him a role

wary anvil
#

Even better

#

You can post it yourself

eBay shipping price is aids

lost torrent
#

could use a little help, was here earlier and given some guidance, cant get the exact card i was looking for (sold out) but wondering how i know which of these 2 is "better"

#

EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 FTW3 ULTRA GAMING Graphics Card $840
EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Super XC Ultra Gaming Overclocked $769

wary anvil
#

The second one

lost torrent
#

just because of price?

brisk flame
#

yep

#

exactly

lost torrent
#

(i have to drive 90 min for the bottom one - in store only...)

brisk flame
#

wait

#

the bottom one is a 2080 super

wary anvil
#

The top one is also not super

brisk flame
#

the top one isnt

wary anvil
#

Yup

#

Ain't good

lost torrent
#

but im looking to see what else they have that i can pick up (mictocenter)

brisk flame
#

the top one is aubsurdly overpriced

#

the bottom one is slightly overpriced

#

2080s are 699 minimum last I checked

lost torrent
#

@brisk flame I am trying to source something close to what you recommended earlier as it is sold out

#

EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 8 GB XC ULTRA GAMING Video Card

brisk flame
#

it's technically oos, but there's more on the way

#

so you can buy it now, but it might take a little longer than usual to ship

vast anchor
rustic pulsar
#

Is a 1060 good?

quasi flicker
#

@rustic pulsar It's okay

#

1660 Ti is probably your best bet though

rustic pulsar
#

Yeah, but I got a laptop for like 900 cause PCs are expensive.

arctic phoenix
#

super

#

1660 super pc is better than most laptop perfs

rustic pulsar
#

I know but the $$

arctic phoenix
#

i think 2060 laptop edition was equivalent in perfs to the 1650 super

#

u could make a 700$ build with 1660 super

wary anvil
#

^Yup

#

I did a $750 build with a 1660super, but if you cut back on the storage you could hit 700 easy

arctic phoenix
#

for 900 you could prob fit even a 2060

spiral drum
#

Bought a MSI GeForce 2070 SUPER RTX 8GB GDDR6 through Newegg, this is the first graphics card I have received ever to not include the SLI Bridge. But I keep finding on Newegg the bridges for 1070/1080. Any idea where I can find the correct one? I've looked all over Newegg's site. Or do I need to order one from somewhere else?

tame iris
#

maybe look it up on google and see which stores sell it

spiral drum
#

yeah I've been doing that now, but still not getting to find one exactly made for the 2070 lol bummer

#

been on amazon as well with not a whole lot of luck

cyan dragon
#

Does anybody know if this is considered PCIe 1.0 PCIe 2.0 or PCIe 3.0?

#

Looking to buy this graphics card today but not sure if my computer is 3.0 or not
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER 4GB GDDR6 PCI Express 3.0 Graphics Card

brisk flame
#

dont worry about it, it will run at the slowest speed

#

so your pc at a minimum would be 2.0 x16

#

which is plenty fast enough for that card

cyan dragon
#

Awesome, thanks @brisk flame

lone pond
#

1660 Ti is probably your best bet though
@quasi flicker go for a 1660 super

rich oasis
#

Everyone just wait 2 weeks for 3000 series

rigid crag
#

Theyre just announcing them in 2 weeks tho. I dont think you can buy them in 2 weeks

rich oasis
#

Still would buy it

#

Probably can buy like a week after

spare relic
#

3050 super?

west relic
wary anvil
#

The one you have should be fine

west relic
#

not in stock tho :/

bitter jungle
#

for 900 you could prob fit even a 2060
@arctic phoenix definitely. Considering that PNY 2060 is going for line $270 rn

proper dragon
#

Will a 1650 super with one fan be alright

granite juniper
#

if u mean cooling wise yes

proper dragon
#

Ok

#

Will a 1650 run r6 good

wary anvil
#

Yeah

proper dragon
#

Ok

wary anvil
#

Not on high settings or super fast refresh speeds, but you can probably get 1080p 120fps on mid to low settings

formal furnace
#

how would i boost this on my laptop only a little intel uhd g1 graphics

wary anvil
#

@formal furnace Do you have a thunderbolt port?

formal furnace
#

idk wait ill pm you a pic of what i think it might be

wary anvil
formal furnace
#

i sent pm

wary anvil
#

No beans

#

So there's pretty much nothing you can do to upgrade the graphics

dawn cedar
#

@formal furnace u can connect an external gpu to an m.2 slot on your mobo. unfortunately a lot of lasptops only have 1 slot occupied by the wifi card so you’d have to take that out

#

but that also limits what it can do for u bc thats not like the full 16x pcie

proper dragon
#

Can someone tell me if my list is good for my budget of $550

dawn cedar
#

what list?

proper dragon
#

My part list

dawn cedar
#

well yeah but wanna send a link?

proper dragon
#

I can just type it

#

CPU i3 9100f
GPU gtx 1650 oc

jovial ferry
#

What ssd? What speed and latency ram? What model PSU?

pastel lily
#

Hey guys

#

I m thinking to purchase ryzne 3600x is it good for value 230 dollars

wary anvil
#

3600 is a better deal

pastel lily
#

Actually I want to build pc

dawn cedar
#

and before u just wanted to build a floating cpu?

#

jk. whats your budget?

wary anvil
#

Floating CPU is all the rage

naive smelt
#

nvidia 100 ti is the best graphic card 1000003030303003030303 + fps on cookie clicker

#

get it

hollow zephyr
#

Good deal or nah?

rich oasis
#

No

hollow zephyr
#

The cooler I'm assuming?

rich oasis
#

No thats fine

#

I just wouldn’t buy anything rn

#

They are probably just trying to get rid of 2000 series stock before launch

hollow zephyr
#

He doesn't wanna wait any longer

rich oasis
#

I eould rather have 5700xt

#

But that gpu is fine

hollow zephyr
#

He doesn't want amd

#

I cringed

rich oasis
#

Who is this man

#

Or woman

#

Tell him that he is disappointing

hollow zephyr
#

I told him already Lmao

rich oasis
#

Very ignorant

#

But what ever fine deal on it prob cheaper

#

After the launch of 3000

#

On used market

hollow zephyr
#

He don't want used

#

He's a first time builder

west relic
#

how much will prices go down after 3000 launches

#

(2060 s)

wary anvil
#

Yes

west relic
#

what kind of answer is yes

#

lol

hollow zephyr
#

They won't

wary anvil
#

They might go on sale for a day or so

west relic
#

how much do you predict?

hollow zephyr
#

Other than that

#

No

#

Like $20

west relic
#

thats nothing :/

hollow zephyr
#

Ya

#

Nvidia confirmed that prices will go up

#

Or so I saw

west relic
hollow zephyr
#

I can't like

#

View it

#

I'm on my phone

west relic
#

copy and paste?

hollow zephyr
#

Create the actual link

#

I can't Lmao

wary anvil
#

I got is Kisuske

hollow zephyr
#

Thx

hollow zephyr
#

^^

#

Maybe bigger if you plan on upgrading not too long down the road

west relic
#

i dont think 500w will be sufficient

hollow zephyr
#

It is Lmao

west relic
#

really

hollow zephyr
#

Ya

#

It tells you the estimated wattage

#

Look at it

west relic
#

i see a lot of tech youtubers go around 700w

hollow zephyr
#

No

#

Don't do what they do

#

They probably use it for something else other than that pc

#

Or use what they have lying around

#

Also

west relic
#

hmm

hollow zephyr
#

Why the meshify c

west relic
#

i like the looks and airflow

hollow zephyr
#

Okay

west relic
#

overkill?

hollow zephyr
#

Does it come with Dan's

#

**fans

#

Lmaooo

west relic
#

2

hollow zephyr
#

Ehhh

#

I'd get something that come with at least 3 for that price

#

It just saves you money really

rich oasis
#

220t

#

P400a

#

Td500

hollow zephyr
#

^^^

#

Pure base 500DX

#

Also @west relic why that 2060??

west relic
#

it looks nice and performs similar to others

#

why do you ask

hollow zephyr
#

It's overpriced Lmao

west relic
#

how so?

hollow zephyr
#

For me personally

rich oasis
#

Very

#

The ventus sucs

#

And 2060s are 380 to 400

west relic
#

its not a ventus

#

its a 2060 super

hollow zephyr
#

Twin frozr Yawy

#

Lookie

rich oasis
#

Oh sorry gaming x

hollow zephyr
#

You save like $50

#

For the same performance Lmao

rich oasis
#

Gaming x has bad cooling pretty sure

#

For 475 you could get a 2070s

wary anvil
#

Windforce is good

rich oasis
#

Windforce is good

hollow zephyr
#

Yessir

#

I'm also cringing at that Samsung ssd Sick

#

Theyre just overpriced steveconfused

west relic
#

it says 3gb read/write

rich oasis
#

The mp34

#

Is just as good lmao

hollow zephyr
#

And cheaper prolly

#

And you could've just gone pcie 4 since you care about read/writes so much NYEHE

fervent obsidian
#

the mp34 is like $66 and that samsung one is 90

#

meanwhile i ordered a sn750 500gb for like $52 which was nice

hollow zephyr
#

Big money saver

west relic
#

is it worth returning?

hollow zephyr
#

For me personally yes

#

Then with the money you save put toward a better gpu since you're already spending that much

west relic
#

and is this overkill for 1080 60 hz

rich oasis
#

Yes lmao

hollow zephyr
#

Huhhhh

#

Just save money and buy a better monitor Chef_Kiss

fervent obsidian
#

sceptre has a good 165hz ips one for $180

west relic
#

i will probaly upgrade to 144hz down the line

fervent obsidian
#

that's what i'm getting

west relic
#

i have a dual 27xw setup

#

hp

hollow zephyr
#

Oi

#

I'm now 1440p 144hz gang

worn cliff
#

LG 32GK650-F is a pretty great budget 1440p 144Hz monitor when it's not overpriced. MSRP is $350 but it averages $400 on most websites

#

My 2070S handles Siege at those specs pretty nicely

hollow zephyr
#

Huh

west relic
#

what is the best gpu ~400

#

preferably nvidia

granite juniper
#

2070

rich oasis
#

@west relic the best would be the 5700xt

#

And new carda are coming out soon so I wouldnt reccommend buying. Anything rn

west relic
#

gotcha

west relic
#

what is the best partner 2060 super

west relic
#

2x or 3x?

#

(fans)

wary anvil
#

It's a 2x

#

They're good fans, so it's enough for the 2060s

west relic
#

so just reallocate the money to buying case fans?

wary anvil
#

How many case fans do you have?

west relic
#

meshify c

#

2

wary anvil
#

What CPU?

west relic
#

r5 3600

wary anvil
#

The two should be fine

#

You might get a single fan for exhaust if you want, but it shouldn't be necessary

west relic
#

ok

#

thanks!

#

wait

#

it looks like there is a 100 mhz difference in clock speeds

wary anvil
#

Compared to what?

west relic
#

3x vs 2x

bitter jungle
#

that won't yield a big performance difference. maybe like 1-2 fps

west relic
#

oh!

wary anvil
#

Also you can add that 100MHz back on with an overclock

west relic
#

i was looking at the 2070 3x

wary anvil
#

That would also do it

west relic
#

👍

#

Hello everyone. I hope you guys are doing well today. I recently upgraded to am msi rtx 2060 ventus XS

#

I currently have a dual monitor setup. 1 of the monitors is 144hz which i use mainly for gaming

#

And the other one is 60 hz which i use for work. Sometimes i extend the displayes when i need the extra workspace

#

For today i am looking to use my 144hz monitor to game but i am having trouble with the cables

#

This is what is available on my 144hz monitor

#

Hdmi, dvi, d-sub

#

On the back of the rtx the dvi and d-sub are not available

#

What do i do? Will the hdmi connection from the card to the monitor output 144hz?

wary anvil
#

It should

oblique otter
#

Let me post some photos and cables that i have

#

I am so confused rn

#

This is the back of my pc

#

it seems like i cant post any photos here

#

or links to a photo on imgur

rich oasis
#

Dm the photo to me @oblique otter

bitter jungle
#

yeah you gotta be lvl 3 mee6 to post links @oblique otter

sullen nest
#

2070 super or 3070 super?

spice prawn
#

considering one of them does not exist. The choice should be simple.

#

no @ocean quarry

#

we dont know anything (of actual value) about the 3xxx series

lone pond
#

we know it will be better than turing

#

rumor is a 3070 super will be on par with a 2080ti for the price of a 2070 super, Worst case scenario reduce the performance by a bit, and increase the cost by a bit you have your answer

spice prawn
#

the challenge with jokes in these channels @ocean quarry is that the people that dont know better, will not automatically know that it is a joke.

#

your model number is wrong on the first one @lone pond

lone pond
#

Those are rumors based on architectural leaks of cuda core counts and Frequencies. Still unsure, But speculation for the Turing Lineup was pretty accurate after Product drop

#

What's wrong?

#

oh ty

spice prawn
#

:)

lone pond
#

fixed

spice prawn
#

makes actual sense now :)

lone pond
#

lmao yeh indeed

#

imagine if the typo was accurate for now

#

We'd all be in heaven

this might sound a bit counter intuitive. But i would prefer (for the sake of the GPU market as a whole) that the 3xxx series semi-flops

lone pond
#

And RDNA II takes off?

spice prawn
#

aye or that intel comes out kicking the snot out of both amd and nvidia

lone pond
#

That would be Ideal

rich oasis
#

Lmao

lone pond
#

But probably not going to happen i hear that intel will also be using TSMC for their GPUs

rich oasis
#

Intel gpu

spice prawn
#

it would be very practical for the price levels IF that happended.

lone pond
#

intel GPUs are good, gen II is coming out Gen 1 best GPU was supposed to be = to a 2070 super, but i don't know what's goin on with them

#

I agree

rich oasis
#

Its intergrated graphics is what I think is interesting

granite juniper
#

i hope theyre all good so its cheaper lol

lone pond
#

They wont make anything RDNA II level or 2080 ti level unless they really put work into the fab

rich oasis
#

6900xt

#

Thats what I want

lone pond
#

I'm very angry with nvidia, But at the same time AMD GPUs are no better, and if Intel uses TSMC it won't be different there iether

spice prawn
#

@granite juniper if they are all good, nvidia wont budge on the price.

#

@lone pond architectures are not created equal. That it is made at TSMC is not the main factor

lone pond
#

Of course but it's still huge

spice prawn
#

just look at what apple does with their arm license vs the competition.

lone pond
#

Nvidia and AMD both use TSMC but nvidia has more resources and deciates to R and D on only GPUs so they pull ahead

#

but i'd just love to see a home made GPU

#

intel could afford to give us a really nice GPU

#

they make 5 times as much money as AMD

spice prawn
#

you have seen the Xe notices right?

lone pond
#

I heard not saw

lone pond
#

basically ehard they will just use Xe gen 1 to blueprint a much better gen II while at the same time releasing 10nm

#

OOOh nice

spice prawn
#

BUT, keep in mind, their "story" is a mess right now

lone pond
#

yeah It's part of how they do things

spice prawn
#

at least that is how i understand Ryan Smiths forum posts about the details

lone pond
#

CEO is givin gus madd riff raff right now. But that's cuz they are very covert about what they wanna release to the public

spice prawn
#

as in. The marketing slides from their presentation are a mess(-ish)

lone pond
#

yeah, it's cuz they have a lot of private and trsuted miltary and government contracst so they don't want public knowing about future work until they really know it's coming for sure. That and they are also actually having a hard time allocating resources for 10 and 7nm

#

but from my understanding they are going to deliver. And it's going to be very very good

spice prawn
#

but, as he mentions (in forums) is that they (Anandtech and tech press in general) have access to actual techs/engineers to get the actual/real details

lone pond
#

yeah good stuff

spice prawn
#

but, the downside to that is this:

#

the "story" in the press is a mess. Because it requires the journalists to reach out to the techs/engineers for the actual details.

lone pond
#

sound about right yeah

spice prawn
#

and it also requires that the journalists actually understand what they are writing about.

#

which is not something that happens all that often anymore

lone pond
#

i'm just stoked to be using a good intel CPU now that i don't need to upgrade

#

i just but it on direct die watercooling after a month of being on directr die air.

#

it's really awesome

spice prawn
#

as long as you are happy :)

lone pond
#

5.3 ghz shouldn't make anyone unhappy

#

i also got this chip from newegg for 275 bucks

#

9900KF

spice prawn
#

if that is the metric that matters for you, then that is correct.

lone pond
#

I actually care more about memory OC, which i get plenty of with my motherboard GOod IMC and DImms but yeah i do like to overclock the core for fun and high refresh

#

plan is to get a 3090 and a 240 hz 1440p mon

#

and just play lots of AC Valhalla

spice prawn
#

as i said, as long as you are happy :)

dreamy dragonBOT
#
KillziahOC#4638 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

lone pond
#

i feel like that's a really polite way of saying i messed up

spice prawn
#

no

lone pond
#

okay fair enough, cuz sometimes the AYMDs say that

#

just gotta keep an eye out

spice prawn
#

AYMD's <- hm?

lone pond
#

yeah i mean. They can be irrational

#

the kind of people that wanna tell me a 3600 > 8700K in gaming for pure frames and performance

spice prawn
#

ah, thats what you meant.

#

Heh.

lone pond
#

Yeah Like the "IPC" argument

spice prawn
#

i have been in this field for way too long to be a fanboy of anything.

lone pond
#

tyhat's good. I still like AMD's ideas

#

they just haven't delivered the best way yet. Zen III leaks ( i have seen them ) are looking very good

spice prawn
#

Hence why i said what i did earlier: "as long as you are happy :)" <- this is a different way of saying. It is your system, it is your money, you are ultimately the only one that has to be happy with the purchase/performance/looks of your build. What everyone else thinks about it? that is their opinion. It really does not have any bearing on your enjoyment of your system.

lone pond
#

that's definiltey true

#

i'm not going to sit here and tell you i NEED intel. But i want it. and wanting it and having it for so long, kind of turns into needing it to maintain the performance i'm used to

#

Some people dog me for being a casual 240 hz gamer, I don't get this

#

it's no different than saying 60 is all you need

spice prawn
#

its your choice (and i mean that in a positive way, and in the same spirit as what i said above)

lone pond
#

That's good man

#

Glad to see some people are aware of what the archs can do

spice prawn
#

and just to touch briefly on zen 3: The rumours i have seen are fairly silly

#

but, from a competitive POV, i hope that they knock it out of the park when it is released. and not because of the consumer products. but because of the enterprise solutions will "finally" be rolling around then.

#

zen1 was the "fancy looking menu"

#

zen 2 was the the good starter dish.

#

hopefully (again from a competitive POV) zen3 will be what makes the big boys in enterprise dig into it

#

dont know how much you know about enterprise, but they are silly slow at adopting tech. So AMD have to keep on launching solid products and stick to their roadmaps etc.

lone pond
#

yeah for sure AMD enterprise is a bit messed up cuz of latency

#

they have hit a wall but ZEN III will come dcown to mainstream properly i've seen those leaks too. Looking good for latency and single core

#

intel will be irrelevant for gaming, but intel will still always win by a bit it just wont matter for high refresh like it does now

#

Intel needs to adopt their mesh architecture onto mainstream to increase core count while increasing the speed of that very bus. This will happen. I just hope it happpens within 2 years and not 4

Hey , my current spec is R5 2600 and GTX 1050 TI and 16 ram and 3 HDD and 1 M.2 and current PSU is 500 Watt
if i want to upgrade my GPU to RTX 2070 super can my CPU Run it on just 144 FPS as my monitor support ?
and if yes what watt of PSU should i upgrade to ?
Thanks in Advance .

gusty token
#

@little sleet HELP ?

little sleet
#

saying "just 144fps" implies exactly but regardless, yes its a fine combo depending on what games youre playing and depending on what settings you have in-game. also if you do want to cap your frames, most games do allow you to cap your frames via a setting to cap or through v-sync

#

if you dont plan on overlocking or getting a pre-oc card, a 500watt psu you already have should be fine assuming it has the right connectors but if you do want to upgrade just to be safe, a 600-650 is fine

#

700 if you really want to make sure

Just got a 2070 super

#

Got it for about 400$ and it’s a carry over for a few months once the 30x reviews come out

Bought a 2070 myself :)

lone pond
#

would a RX 580 for 76 dollars be worth it?

is it used

#

yes

Used electronics practically guarantees a loss in the silicon lottery

lone pond

especially if its not used

its used

yea its good

#

but if u look

#

u can get better deals

also wait 1.5 months

for new cards

for price to come down

#

:v pretty sure rtx 3000 wont cause the budget market to drop

lone pond

it depends

it might on certain cards

Pretty sure after the 3000 comes out

Budget cards like the 1060 and 1050 will become super dirt cheap
@lone pond thats what i have been waiting for

#

a 1060ti with 144hz ,thats all i am looking for

lone pond
#

what games do you play with a 1060ti that can reach 144 hz

granite juniper
#

kekw 1060 ti

lone pond
#

Get a 1660 super bro

#

At least

#

😔

lone pond
#

bruh dual rx 580 asus rog is lethal

shy oracle
#

Heya, is the 1660 super good? I’m trying to decide between that and a 2060 super for a somewhat budget build.

bitter jungle
#

@shy oracle 1660 super has very good value for money. 2060 super is a lot better, of course, though.
You could just meet in the middle and get a normal RTX 2060 or an RTX 2060 KO

#

what games do you play with a 1060ti that can reach 144 hz
A lot of games. CSGO, valorant, Minecraft, overwatch, and more. I have a 165HZ monitor for my RX 570 4gb and I reach that all the time cause I just play esports games

shy oracle
#

Ah okay, thank you! For now I’ll go with the 1660 but I can always upgrade later haha

bitter jungle
#

Sure. Whatever you want to do. Good luck

who here knows about rmaing

contact the seller @restive quartz

restive quartz

it its but i live in saudi and there is no msi agent who can fix/refund/replace

seller is newegg

spice prawn

then contact the service desk of newegg

restive quartz

they said i have to contact msi US

#

the issued an RMA in US

#

but ill pay a good 250 dolars for shipping to and from US

spice prawn
#

IF that is their procedure, then that is what you have to do

restive quartz
#

isnt there a ways to contact the headoffice of msi ?

#

email maybe?

spice prawn

and this might not be a comfort for you, but it is on you for not researching warranty/RMA before you bought from overseas

did you buy 2?

#

also, the connectors on the top use cables attached to the psu

#

oh, are you asking what sli bridge to get for sli?

#

@spiral drum

#

if you bought 2 2070 supers, that was a mistake, just return one while you can

#

but, heres the NVlink bridge anyway, assuming your gpus will be right next to each other

@brisk flame Yeah I bought 2 cards. And yes, I'm trying to find what SLI bridge is needed

brisk flame
#

well, i would strongly suggest returning one and saving yourself the hassle

#

its not worth it

spiral drum
#

oh really?

brisk flame
#

yeah, just one 2070 super is all you need, unless your trying to hit 4k 240hz in like the 10 games that still support it

#

but even with that you need a cpu with killer single core perf

spiral drum
#

haha not really, just was going all out, but I'm building 2 computers, was gonna SLI one of them with the 2 current cards in 2 different computers, but maybe I'll just do 1 2070 in each pc

Looking to bring up a computer the the 11yo kiddo to do her schoolwork on. I've got an old shell sitting around with this in it.

https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-78LMT-USB3-rev-60?fbclid=IwAR3E7ylrh11-yMUoeGQt-27PNP4YvAPtX4TCCTHwgc56m5DXZ4m5kT9tcOI#ov

The integrated graphics are finicky so i need a graphics card for to thats cheap and reliable for a schoolwork computer and can let her play a few games that will fit it. have everything else.

Any suggestions?

#

Please ping me or DM me with answers as i keep this discord muted usually to.

dawn cedar
#

@heavy sandal whats the budget?

heavy sandal
#

let's say 350.

dawn cedar
#

for just the gpu?

heavy sandal
#

yup its all i need

#

and only because the integrated isn't reliable.

dawn cedar
#

u could probably get a 2060 for that

#

but id say thats way overkill for a school pc

heavy sandal
#

yeah id say

#

although if a 2060 would fit in my other computer i know the one in my main build is compatible.

dawn cedar
#

if u want a school pc for light gaming id go with something like a 1660ti

#

like $200

heavy sandal
#

thank you ill go find one

dawn cedar
#

np

hollow zephyr

@heavy sandal dont get a 1660ti unless you can find it for like $240

Titan X maxwell or pascal?

@heavy sandal if you end up getting a 1660, don’t get a TI. It’s got bad value. Get a 1660 super.

Anyone know a good budget amd cpu that wont bottleneck a 1650s?

bitter jungle

For what budget

#

$100? $200?

clever mica
#

100 is possible

#

ima be playing gta and stuff so i just dont want any bad bottlenecking

bitter jungle
#

Ryzen 1200, is like the minimum. Maybe a 3200G. 3100 if you can find one in stock for a decent price

#

There’s also the 9100F but since you wanted AMD that’s out of the question

clever mica
#

oh i have the 1200, oc it too 4ghz and every time i play gta its like its body slamming my whole system into the shadow realm

#

i was thinking about the 5 2600 but i thought i would ask aroundhere first

arctic phoenix
#

save for a 3600

#

a bit more

bitter jungle
#

Yeah, a 2600 would be good, same with a 1600 AF, if you can find them for a good price (~$130)

arctic phoenix
#

but if u want to upgrade rn just get the 2600

#

i would save

clever mica
#

its on sale rn for 30% its the only reason i was looking at it

bitter jungle
#

How much is it rn

clever mica
#

139

bitter jungle
#

Ehhh. I mean, for only $30 more you can get a 3600

clever mica
#

true true

#

hey but thanks guys! this place is really useful

bitter jungle
#

For sure. Good luck with your build

wicked hound
#

@clever mica I'd say that the 1200 can hold you off till ryzen desktop 4000

so wait for that to either get a better CPU or better prices

so should i get it or nope?

i really dont know much about the graphic card still learning about the difference

Mostly if you don't plan on doing any super indepth overclocking, you get one of the cheaper ones. Fora 2080 super, three fans is super nice though

the next gen 3000 series?

ah oki

3070 super might be cheaper then a 2080s anyway

If nothing else there's usually a bit of a sale around new releases

anyone know when 3080ti is available for purchase? announcement is sept 1 but how long after?

#

3090 is a titan

i dare u to put it in the x4 slot

You joke, but I legit manage a server with the GPUs in x4

does 1080 bring better performance ?

arctic phoenix

1660S is about 1070 perf

and 1660S is basically 1660Ti

arctic phoenix
#

true

yes, but you'd probably have a hard time finding it for $230 - $250

bitter jungle
#

For $120 you can get a new RX 570 and it has 1 extra gb of VEAM

#

Nope

open shale
#

560 ti $75 ??

bitter jungle
#

980 TI is like 1660 super performance, and you can get a new 1660 super for only a little more

#

560 TI for $75 HAAAAA

wicked hound
#

used RX570 is like $80 and obliterates the 560Ti

open shale
#

1060 SC 6gb 140 ?

wicked hound
#

again, go back to used RX580 prices

#

$90 for a used 580

open shale
#

idk what rx580 is

#

170 for gtx 1660

#

?

wicked hound
#

that's about 1060 6gb perf

open shale
#

i see

#

is it compatiable with a z490 mobo ?

wicked hound
#

yes, however why are you going high end CPU with low end GPU?

open shale
#

bc

#

bc

#

i thouhgt those gpu were good enough to handle cod lololol

bitter jungle
#

Ok, for future reference,
The first number (example, first number in 1060 is 10) is the generation. Higher generation = better performance.
The second number (in 1060 it’s 60) is the performance range, when it came out.
50 < 60 < 70 < 80. Smaller number is worse, for generation and performance range.
Generation matters a lot too. 980 TI is a little worse that 1070 for example.
So 560 TI... you can imagine how bad that is lol.

#

I spent too long typing that and idk if it will even make sense

open shale
#

yea 👏 it does

wicked hound
#

xxyy is Nvidia naming scheme
1060 (xx = 10 and yy = 60)
2070 (xx = 20 and yy = 70)
480 (xx = 4 and yy = 80)

buoyant stone
#

Should be pinned lol

open shale
#

pny nvidia gtx 970 4gb for 70 ?

wicked hound
#

xx be the generation and yy be the tier in the generation

#

I find rtx 2060 for 90$ on Newegg

open shale
#

woah

bitter jungle
#

That’s actually not bad for a 970, but not a very great card

#

That’s gotta be a scam

open shale
#

oh

bitter jungle
#

It’s from a 3rd party seller right?

buoyant wigeon
#

It got decent reviews

wicked hound
#

scam for 2060, but not 970

buoyant wigeon
#

Yup

open shale
#

no facebook market lmfao

buoyant wigeon
#

I just found it and I’m was shock

open shale
#

it's a scam right ?

wicked hound
#

given you're on z490, high end chipset and assuming high end CPU, you should be spending like $500+ on your GPU

bitter jungle
#

Yes it’s a scam

open shale
#

what should i get for my cpu than ?

#

i was recommended a i9 990k

wicked hound
#

the 2060 is the scam, to not cause confusion btw.
The 970 for $70 is a nice deal and probs safe

buoyant wigeon
open shale
#

i think my dad would fall for it ngl

bitter jungle
#

9900K won’t work on Z490 motherboard lol

#

Totally different socket

lone pond
#

I think I’m gonna sell my rx 580 for a gtx 1070

wicked hound
#

not to mention, to much money spent on CPU

bitter jungle
#

Get a 1660 super instead

#

1070s are overpriced, used and new

open shale
#

bitter jungle
#

Ew 1650 non super

open shale
#

lone pond
#

1660 supers like 230?

bitter jungle

1650 super is pretty good value. 1650 non super... bleh

buoyant wigeon

Rx 570 is better

bitter jungle
#

Yeah they’re like $230-250

open shale
