Especially when I have a theme build that uses the founder edition card too.

naive girder
#

You should check out the new Radeons

near shadow
#

Saw the new RX cards, and while they literally dominate the 30 Series in terms of performance, they're also really expensive as far as I saw them.

naive girder
#

It’s 600 something for the 6800 XT si cheaper then the 30 series

near shadow
#

Ahhhh

naive girder
#

That one has 2 ghz

#

Game clock

near shadow
#

Was it the 6900 that was suped up?

naive girder
#

Yeah but it’s not a lot better than the 6800 XT

#

It’s mostly for streaming and stuff

royal copper
#

tbh this gpu launch looks a lot like last launch which isnt surprising

near shadow
#

Ahhhh gotcha

royal copper
#

between amd and nvidia at least

naive girder
#

The 6900 is if like you want more cores for streaming at 6800 XT performance

near shadow
#

Yes, but as far as graphics cards go, it's a bit of a surprise to me that the RTX 20 series got out priced by the 30

#

At least in terms of advancements anyway....

#

And gotcha. I will definitely note that down when it comes to shopping this December.

#

I'll most likely do my own research in the end so I'll figure that stuff out when it comes to it.

hoary hill
#

I'm quite interested in the 6900xt

naive girder
#

It’s ok

#

Op

#

And the price is hawt

worn gazelle
#

do the Radeon GPUS have there version of nvenc

naive girder
#

What?

hoary hill
#

I was trying to decide if I wanted to get the 3080, or ..90 (if I do actually upgrade) but 3090 performance for 1k is a little more approachable

worn gazelle
#

its a encoder on rtx gpus that doesn't use your cpu to stream but you gpu and it takes less fps

naive girder
#

Oh I’m not sure

#

But it’s still suuuper good

worn gazelle
#

ya

naive girder
#

Only thing is that NVIDIA has some cool features

hoary hill
#

As does AMD, but what ones are you going to use more?

naive girder
#

Oh I’m getting the 6800xt

lone pond
#

Rx 5700 xt 4k 50-60fps or 1440p 100+ fps?

#

which do u guys think

#

I currently have a 60hz 1080p monitor

#

and I know I am wasting pc potential

worn gazelle
#

i think I'm still going green because Nvidia has been on top longer and i feel more comfortable with them. (my opinion)

naive girder
#

Dude u don’t think it can run 4K that well

#

i think I'm still going green because Nvidia has been on top longer and i feel more comfortable with them. (my opinion)
@worn gazelle how dare you u r dumb /s

royal copper
#

depends on game but id say 5700 more for 1440p gaming

lone pond
#

ok

naive girder
#

Yeah

lone pond
#

I mostly play single player

#

like the new assassin's creed

#

and I play battlefield

naive girder
#

Def 1440p

lone pond
#

ok

hoary hill
#

What cpu?

lone pond
#

do you have any suggestions for cheap 1440p 144hz monitors

#

@hoary hill r5 3600x

worn gazelle
#

1440p is the mix with high fps and good quality, 1440p is the best bet

hoary hill
#

Ok, probably 1440

lone pond
#

any suggestions for monitors?

hoary hill
#

I have a 27in 1440 144 that I think is a good balance

hoary hill
#

Mine is a Dell something from best buy, but it's not a great deal anymore

naive girder
#

Woah that’s expensive

devout zinc
#

how much better is the 1660 than 1650 super

lone pond
#

@naive girder yeah but the gigabyte one is ips hdr and can be oc to 165

hoary hill
#

Are you in the market for one?

lone pond
#

I think

naive girder
#

how much better is the 1660 than 1650 super
@devout zinc a lot better

devout zinc
#

@devout zinc a lot better
@naive girder explain

worn gazelle
#

but its newegg dis

hoary hill
#

@devout zinc are you in the market for one of them?

lone pond
#

ok and

worn gazelle
#

@devout zinc you should look for a lighly used 2060

naive girder
#

@naive girder explain
@devout zinc I was looking for gpus and the 1660 gets a way better score in benchamarks and has more core and boost speed

#

Also more vram I think

spare relic
#

actually

devout zinc
#

ok

#

@devout zinc are you in the market for one of them?
@hoary hill yes

spare relic
#

1650 to 1650S is a bigger difference than 1650S to 1660 it seems

naive girder
#

Really?

#

Huh

worn gazelle
#

1650 super is 4gb of vram not much

lone pond
#

why doesnt it let me send ebay links

naive girder
#

Yeah

#

Idk

worn gazelle
#

1660 ti

lone pond
#

I found a 1080ti for 399 is that a good deal?

spare relic
#

depends

naive girder
#

Talking about eBay there’s a 1440p 144hz viotek on eBay with speakers for 230

#

I found a 1080ti for 399 is that a good deal?
@lone pond probably

worn gazelle
#

a 1660 ti is like 50 dollars more and will get way better performance

naive girder
#

Yeah

hoary hill
#

If you don't need one right away I would wait until people start selling there 2060s and 2070s when they upgrade

lone pond
#

buying used monitors seems kinda weird though

#

if you can't see it in person

naive girder
#

It’s not used

#

Open box

hoary hill
#

If it isn't as described in the description, you can get your money back pretty easily on ebay. But make sure you read the description and everything well

lone pond
#

why are assassin's creed games so demanding

#

why arent they like far cry games

worn gazelle
#

you can buy new for like 40-70 dollars more less sketch

hoary hill
#

Optimization

lone pond
#

but ubisoft make both of them

#

will the new ac have good optimization

hoary hill
#

Idk,I've never actually played them...

worn gazelle
#

yes probably but will be more demanding because of higher quality

lone pond
#

ok and I have one more question

#

is a 2060 super good for 1440p 144hz too

faint sail
#

do you think I should sell my 1660S and get myself a 1080ti for 350? or wait for 30 series and get it scooped up by scalpers

lone pond
#

yes

#

get 1080 ti

rustic pebble
#

should i get a 3070 or rx 6800?

pure hedge
#

i vote for rx 6800

halcyon nova
#

ima wait for benchmarks

rancid night
#

ima wait for benchmarks
@halcyon nova proooobably the best move, always wait for additional info

#

but yeah, I lean towards the amd

halcyon nova
#

yeah especialy as last gen had bad driver issues

hollow hornet
#

should i get a 3070 or rx 6800?
@rustic pebble 6800, but wait for drivers

opal willow
#

i got 3070 already

#

:/

vapid grove
#

How

lone pond
#

is 40-50 fps noticable with freesync?

low saffron
#

So, what's the best way to get my hand on a 3080 ?

lone pond
#

probably just wait

#

dont overpay on ebay or anything

#

and if I were you

#

I would get an amd rx 6000 card

low saffron
#

Haha, I prefer to die without a card than paying a scalper.

lone pond
#

they have more gddr6 ram

#

and they are better price to performance

#

but if you are gonna get that just wait like a few weeks

#

to make sure the drivers are ok

low saffron
#

I am buying the whole rig so I am going to wait for a ryzen 5600x + rx 6800 /rtx 3080.

lone pond
#

yeah thats smart

#

I bought a 5700 xt a few months ago

#

now I feel pretty dumb

low saffron
#

Whattt

#

Ha the video card.

lone pond
#

I got the best one the asrock taichi one

low saffron
#

The "best" 5700 xt ? What make it so better ?

lone pond
#

it has highest clock speed

#

I think

#

and it looks pretty cool

#

I got it on sale for 380$

low saffron
#

USD or CAD ?

lone pond
#

USD

#

if I were you just wait for new ones

low saffron
#

ack, because in CAD it's a pretty good performance/$ ratio.

#

Haha. Am i the only one on a back order queue for a 3080 + on the backorder queue for the Valve Index ?

lofty merlin
#

im unsure weather 6800 or 3070

lone pond
#

it depends

#

what resolution monitor and what refresh rate

lofty merlin
#

6800 has much better preformance but 3070 has cuda and physx and dlss and raytracing

#

60 herts 4k

lone pond
#

hmmmm

low saffron
#

I think the decision depends if you need the raytracing and DLSS.

lofty merlin
#

im mean i feel like i might use it a couple times but not much

#

only when playing cinematic games

low saffron
#

I have the feeling that it will takes a couple of months for games to fully support AMD cards.

lofty merlin
#

yeah

agile parrot
#

do you guys know how big the difference is from the 3080 and 3070 at 1440p

#

cause im considering trading my 3080 for a 3070

low saffron
#

Aren't they dependent on the CPU ?

agile parrot
#

ryzen 7 3700x cpu

lone pond
#

squatting if you are just doing 1440p

#

just use 3070

low saffron
#

☝️

lone pond
#

3080 is overkill unless you are going for 144hz ultra settings 1440p

agile parrot
#

because im getting around 150 fps on games at 1080p with my 3080 and ryzen 7 3700x

#

i have a 144hz 1440p monitor arriving tomorrow

lone pond
#

3080 is very overkill for 1080p

low saffron
#

Yup, I am going with the 3080 because I want to do VR.

lone pond
#

you can try if you want but I think 3070 will do fine

agile parrot
#

what do you think the fps will be with 3070 at 1440p 144hz

lone pond
#

hmmm

fervent obsidian
#

depends entirely on the game

lone pond
#

you should look at benchmark vidoes

fervent obsidian
#

it'll be above 60 if that's what matters

agile parrot
#

1440p is more gpu dependent right

fervent obsidian
#

yes

lone pond
#

@fervent obsidian is a freesync 4k monitor work well with my rx 5700 xt?

agile parrot
#

because in warzone right now i get around 40% cpu usage on 1080p with like 150fps

fervent obsidian
#

i'm not sure how a 5700xt performs in 4k

#

havent checked

agile parrot
#

but im stepping up to 1440p tomorrow

lone pond
#

ok

low saffron
#

@agile parrot Isn't games in 1440p cpu-bound (single-threaded speed) ?

agile parrot
#

i have no clue tbh

lone pond
#

does hdr make a big difference?

agile parrot
#

good question too cause the monitor im getting is hdr i believe

lone pond
#

I can't really tell from vidoes

agile parrot
#

its the samsung g5 32 inch ultrawide monitor

low saffron
#

It does on desktop yeah.

lone pond
#

I went to microcenter the other day to look at different monitors

agile parrot
#

there are very few reviews on it because its newish i believe

lofty merlin
#

do you guys think 6800 for preformance for 3070 for nvidia + support + fetures

lone pond
#

do you play single player games?

lofty merlin
#

im only planning on plying multi

lone pond
#

6800 then

agile parrot
#

ok so i found the difference in fps is around 20fps in games at 1440p for 3070 and 3080

lone pond
#

the features of 3070 are better for a singleplayer experience

#

thats what I think

lofty merlin
#

this will be my first build and my buget is 1510

agile parrot
#

i think ill just stick with my 3080 thx

lofty merlin
#

so far i have 1450 used if i go with 6800 (80 dollards more)

lone pond
#

what cpu are you planning on using

lofty merlin
#

but i still need a psu

#

ryzen 5 5600x

#

so either i try to find a used psu for 60 bucks or go with 3070 and have an easier time finding a psu

fervent obsidian
#

not a used psu

#

no

lofty merlin
#

im aiming for full modular 750w

fervent obsidian
lofty merlin
#

ok

boreal isle
#

hey guys, I'm not very knowledgable in computer building myself but I have a part list website where I have all my current parts put together.... I was wondering If I added the CPU, GPU and MOtherboard ... will these be compatible?

lofty merlin
#

im pairing with a ryzen 5 5600x @lone pond

#

i want the 6800 for preformance but i am afraid about support and features

#

like what if an app requires some nvidia only thing

low saffron
#

@lofty merlin Same concern here.

lofty merlin
#

like cuda

#

and also i kinda like nvidia more and i want dlss and raytracing

#

but then again amd has more POWER

low saffron
#

@lofty merlin Not that much, to be honest. And BOTH cards are monsters.

lofty merlin
#

i want to play 4k

#

and my monitor is 60 herts

#

which is right around the preformance of those cards

low saffron
#

yup

lofty merlin
#

and also im pairing with zen 3

#

so i might benifit from smart access memory

low saffron
#

might is a keyword here

lofty merlin
#

this is my first ever build btw

#

@low saffron true.

low saffron
#

Wait for real benchmark if you want my advice.

lofty merlin
#

i dont think by too much tho bcuz i have 32 gigs 3200mhz c16 and also we dont know about them memory bandwith between the cpu and gpu

low saffron
#

Me, I will buy the first card (3080 or 6800 XT) that I can get into my cart 😆

#

That will be my strategy this year lol

#

@lofty merlin Have you played Half Life Alyx ?

lofty merlin
#

my buget means i can only have 3070 or 6800

#

@low saffron as that will be my first ever build, i dont have a good pc right now

#

so i havent invested in games yet

frozen seal
#

i cant even get the 6800

#

i feel like amd doesnt have a 3070 competitor yet

#

the 6800 is just outside of the 3070's price range

low saffron
#

There is a 6700 no ?

lofty merlin
#

not confirmed but i think so

low saffron
#

Ha, it's the 6800 that is put against the 3070, true

frozen seal
#

a 6700xt would be the 3070 competitor probably

lofty merlin
#

6800xt should be 3080 competetor tho

frozen seal
#

and it is

lofty merlin
#

they trade blows in terms of game fps

frozen seal
#

and $50 cheaper i think it was, right?

#

and, with SAM/rage mode amd does come out on top

lofty merlin
#

wait nevermind i thought u said 6800xt i dint see 6700xt

frozen seal
#

ah

lofty merlin
#

im blind lol

#

im still deciding on 3070 or 6800

midnight badger
#

get a 3070

lofty merlin
#

amd is more powerful but nvidia has dlss and raytracing and better support

midnight badger
#

no

#

2080ti

#

jk

#

get 3070 its less expensive and as powerful

frozen seal
#

yea, im still getting a 3070 over the 6800

lofty merlin
#

why

frozen seal
#

not as powerful

midnight badger
#

but 6800xt over 3080

frozen seal
#

definitely not as powerful

#

with dlss, sure

lofty merlin
#

could i please hear your reasons @frozen seal

frozen seal
#

but not without

#

for?

#

the 3070 not being as powerful as the 6800?

lofty merlin
#

reasons for 3070 over 6800

brisk flame
#

cost

midnight badger
#

imagine getting a ps5

frozen seal
#

well, its cheaper, the 6800 is just out of my price range when it comes to a card

#

and also dlss upscaling is cool, it beats the 6800 at 4k easy

low saffron
#

Yeah dlss looks pretty awesome.

lofty merlin
#

i only have 65 left im my buget if i go with 6800

#

so either i try to find a used psu for 65 bucks or go with 3070 and have an easier time finding a psu

#

@frozen seal what do you say/think

frozen seal
#

i mean, i'd definitely go with the 3070 and a 740 semi/full power supply

#

*750

#

but get the TUF if you can afford it

#

its basically the best 3070

#

at its price

fervent obsidian
#

I only see the tuf oc which is like 560 sadly

#

anyone see a normal tuf anywhere

#

3070 tuf oc*

frozen seal
#

canada gang gang

low saffron
#

If I see one, I'll buy it for sure 😄

lofty merlin
#

well my buget is 1510 and ive used up 1445 already if i fo for 580 dolar gpu

fervent obsidian
#

so just wait for benchmarks on the 6800

#

is that the last thing you need ?

lofty merlin
#

so i need to get a gpu AND psu for 645

frozen seal
#

i cant help with anything pricing US wise, cause i have no idea what stuff lookes like, between random convertion rate differences and availablility, no idea

#

stuff is usually priced a seemingly random amount more in canada over the conversion rates

#

i guess that morks

#

*works

#

fek

#

cant type

#

dafuq be dis

lofty merlin
#

lol

#

i thought u were trying to spam at first

low saffron
#

@lofty merlin What CPU you are getting ?

lofty merlin
#

5600x

low saffron
#

Yeahh 😄

lofty merlin
#

when it comes out in like 3 days

#

well im trying to play at 4k so 6800 muight be better as it has more mem @frozen seal but then again i want nvidia for compatability (im afraid some aps or games NEED nvidia only suuff like cuda) and fetures

low saffron
#

@frozen seal Do you think 3070 enough for playing in 4k?

lofty merlin
#

well the benchmarks say that you should get 50+ fps

#

so if u doin 4k 60 like me you hould be good

#

54 at minimum i think

#

more for lesser settings or other games

low saffron
#

It's up to you. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

dire sphinx
#

lofty merlin
#

DUDE this is so annoying I CANT DECIDE

low saffron
#

Lolllll

#

But @dire sphinx had a good point here that could help you make a decision 😆

lone pond
#

IS THERE A BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 4K AND 1440P

#

sorry cap

low saffron
#

3.56 K ?

fathom bear
#

Umm. Yes?

#

What do you mean

lone pond
#

I mean in gaming

#

is there a really big difference

#

like enough to upgrade

fathom bear
#

In visuals? Performance?

#

Context is needed

lone pond
#

in visuals

fathom bear
#

Don’t get 4K if you don’t have a 2080ti or 30 series card imo

lone pond
#

no I have a 5700 xt

fathom bear
#

Stick with 1440p

lone pond
#

ok

fathom bear
#

With that card

lone pond
#

can you recommend any good 1440p monitors

fathom bear
#

Do you have 144hz?

lone pond
#

I was looking at this

#

no because I just built my pc

#

and I have a 75hz 1080 p

#

I have a r5 3600x and a asrock taichi 5700 xt

lofty merlin
#

@low saffron what was the good point

fathom bear
#

Gigabyte G27q on Newegg, 144hz ips 1440p for 320$

lone pond
#

it is $310 on amazon

#

but I will probably wait until black firday

#

to get a monitor

fathom bear
#

Yup that’s a good one according to mr1111

low saffron
#

@lofty merlin Nah, it wasn't important.

fathom bear
#

I use 3440x1440 so idk

lone pond
#

Off topic but Best Buy released stock of the 3070fe at 7:30pm pst today and it was sold out within 4 minutes.

fathom bear
#

@lone pond Microcenter is your best bet

low saffron
#

I have a 2k monitor. It might be a compromise if you have a 5700xt ?

fathom bear
#

I played the 3080 game for a month and a half

lone pond
#

I’m annoyed cause I was refreshing the page and I didn’t get it

fathom bear
#

Using distill, now in stock etc etc

#

You won’t win

lone pond
#

There isn’t a physical micro center within 300 miles of me. I can’t get it in person sadly

#

fire titan does that monitor I sent look good to you?

#

it has hdr and it is ips

lofty merlin
#

i literly entered 2 contests becuz at this points the odds of me getting one are the same

fathom bear
#

Yes but I haven’t used it

#

On paper it looks good

lone pond
#

ok thanks

fathom bear
#

I’m waiting to see what the Black Friday gods offer us in terms of displays

lone pond
#

I was looking at ultrawide but I sit really close

#

to my monitor

fathom bear
#

Ultra wide is neat, but sorta niche

lone pond
#

but anything will be a upgrade over my 1080p monitor

low saffron
#

Ultrawide is nice for development.

#

Dunno for games

lucid karma
#

Ultrawide cringe

fathom bear
#

It’s great for games... if it supported

#

Helps me with work more than anything

past crown
#

immersive

#

like skyrim and stuff

#

for open world and single player prolly

low saffron
#

For the immersive part, I am waiting (forever) for my Valve Index... mouhahahaha

fathom bear
#

Skyrim doesn’t run 21:9 without mods

past crown
#

i broke my toenail (lots of cracks) so i trimmed it, and now theres a piece in my toe itself that i cant get out

fathom bear
#

Same with fallout games (except 76)

#

Don’t get me started with dark souls 😄

frozen seal
#

@lofty merlin other people, correct me if im wrong but isnt 4k one of the things that the 3070 is much better at over the 6800 because if dlss

#

*because of

lofty merlin
#

well yes...

fathom bear
#

I think the 6800 has a dlss equivalent

#

Not quite the same thing though

lofty merlin
#

as far as i know 3070 is 20% worse with off and 20% bettre with on

frozen seal
#

ah, you got a role, thats what threw me off

#

thought you went offline cause i didnt see the gray lul

lone pond
#

2080ti is a big scam

lofty merlin
#

but that is in comparison with the base 6800

lone pond
#

its a rip off

frozen seal
#

that is known fact

#

not sure why anyone would still be buying it

fathom bear
#

Yup

lone pond
#

do you think it will be the same

frozen seal
#

but let them do them i guess

lofty merlin
#

6800 WILL have DLSS equiv but not yet

fathom bear
#

I got a 3070, honestly couldn’t care less about cards if you can’t buy them

frozen seal
#

which one did you get?

fathom bear
#

If 3070 wasn’t in stock, I would’ve gotten an amd card if possible

#

Founders

frozen seal
#

ahh nice

#

i was looking into either the asus dual or the gigabyte eagle for a 3070 at first as they're the cheapest, but now i think i might as well spend the extra $80 (CAD) for a tuf card which is known to be reliable

fathom bear
#

Runs my ultrawide at 100fps in pretty much everything so no complaints here

lone pond
#

do any of you know if the amd new dlss thing is backwards compatible

frozen seal
#

the tuf is also one of the better looking cards in my opinion

lone pond
#

like with 5700 xt

fathom bear
#

I wouldn’t buy asus dual if you have the option

frozen seal
#

the only close competitor to the tuf at that price range is the evga xc3 black/gaming

fathom bear
#

Cooling is probably not great

frozen seal
#

which really doesnt look great

#

red clown lips lookin boi

lucid karma
#

I like the zotac 3080, I think it looks cool

frozen seal
#

smol boi

#

wait

#

no

#

3080

#

yes

#

trinity is nice

fathom bear
#

Evga got rid of clown lips on black right?

frozen seal
#

twin edge is not

#

i think they kpt it, just black

lone pond
#

zotac 3070 and 2070 super are so ew

#

they are tiny

Haven’t seen the 3070 ones, 3070 is weak sauce card

lofty merlin
#

i want to go 6800 but my main concern is compatability. like what if a game or app cant use an amd card. or what if an app uses cuda which amd doesnt have. also i thinks nvida has better driver and apps and more cards/variants (like parner cards). finally i like nvidia more bcuz theve made high end cards for WAY longer

frozen seal
#

well, thats a clean smol card

#

but zotac tries to make a gamery lookin smol card

lone pond
#

mine is 13 inches long

#

I think

fathom bear
#

@lucid karma And you have... what?

lucid karma

I’m going to be getting a 3080 or 6800xt

Good luck with that

fathom bear

Get whatever’s in stock

frozen seal

Again, microcenter is your best chance

frozen seal
#

im just trying to figure out fo rwhich card

#

no microcenters in canada

#

big sad

lone pond
#

I used to live by a microcenter but then I moved

#

my city still has like 2 million people

fathom bear
#

Ah, sad day

lone pond

its dumb

#

they need to make more of them

frozen seal
#

2 mil city population gang, ayy

low saffron
#

@frozen seal They take 100% of the payment in advance ... kind of a ripoff

frozen seal
#

yes, and in canada

#

who does?

#

canadacomputerSs?

low saffron
#

Canada Computer

frozen seal
#

hmm

#

well

#

they're reliable

low saffron

Hope

lofty merlin
#

@low saffron can you please list some reasons for nvidia over amd

frozen seal
#

its not like they're just gonna steal my money and run

lone pond
#

@low saffron amd is way better value

#

and they will make dlss soon

#

so that can't be an excuse

frozen seal
#

not for the 3070 they arent

#

if you're trying to get a 3080, dont

#

wait for 6800xt

#

if you're trying to get a 3090 dont, because thats just dumb

#

get a 6800xtr

lone pond
#

ew 3090

#

I entered the giveaway

#

but if I win I'll probably sell it

low saffron
#

Yeah, waiting for a 3080 ... But I think I will end with a 6800xt

lone pond
#

because my system is nowhere near to being able to support it

#

it would be a massive bottleneck

frozen seal
#

i don't really see the point in buying a 3080 ngl

lofty merlin
#

@low saffron can you please list some reasons for nvidia over amd

lone pond
#

does anyone else have corsair rgb pro ram?

#

because the rgb on mine keeps going out of sync

lofty merlin
#

i want to

lone pond
#

one stick is ahead of the other

frozen seal
#

ye same, and its basically 2.5k easily (cad) and thats a whole system right there

#

like, thats $700 more than my next build is gonna cost

#

and my next build is gonna look smexy

#

so i could get a rippin 3080 build going and still have cash prolly

low saffron
#

@lofty merlin I think current games are more likely to be optimized for nvidia than amd.

lofty merlin
#

@low saffron true

frozen seal
#

why ping

#

just talk

lofty merlin
#

i literly just noticed my new role

Guy_WithGlasses, I want a 3080 because I am building a VR setup and it require a lot of power. But maybe it's overkill ?

lofty merlin

im pst

low saffron
#

est

frozen seal
#

est gang gang

#

jeez, what kind of vr games are gonna need a 3080?

#

what headset you got?

#

cause unless its like a 4k+ display a 3080 should be plently, if not a 3070 ok

low saffron
#

Either the Reverb G2 or the Valve Index

frozen seal
#

actually

#

not sure about that

lucid karma
#

Nice rank up

frozen seal
#

wouldnt get the high fps for high refresh rate

low saffron
#

G2 is 2K per eyes

frozen seal
#

oh ye

i gotte

#

yea, that what the quest is aswell i think

i git the quest when it came out

*quest 2

low saffron
#

Have you seen this monster, the pimax 8K ?! lol, what do you need to run that ? 3080 in sli ? lol

#

But it's limited to 90hz

#

Ho 110hz for enthusiasts

frozen seal
#

wow thats weird asf looking

#

most gameryy thing ive seen in awhile

low saffron
#

@frozen seal I mainly want to play HalfLife Alyx and Starwars Squadron.

crisp ocean
#

56666666

frozen seal
#

mhm, those look cool

#

i saw a game called elite dangerous which looks interesting, havnt been able to find out much on it tho

#

and what i do find out makes it more confusing

low saffron
#

The pimax looks cool the there is theorically a lot of distortion in the field of view that can be distubing.

#

In theory, the reverb G2 have the best image here.

#

Okay, need to go. So good luck to you all getting the cards you want!

mighty valve
#

Is 3060 going to be a thing?

frozen seal

OOOOOOOOOOH BAD WORD

nvidia needs to get their stuff together

weak anvil

I don't think they're gonna be that far above AMD that they stated

#

But yeah I think if you have the ryzen then maybe

crisp ocean
#

I am a bigger fan of nvidia gpus buit ryzen has some competition

oak quartz
#

i bought ryzen 9 like 2 months ago

#

deleted lil curse word before i get mega banned

weak anvil
#

Damn sub, what do you run on the 5700?

oak quartz
#

what will happen if i say s(e)x

#

i called newegg to return my 2080 super that was like 3 months old and they gave me back 80% of what i paid

#

i said newegg dont ban

shadow horizon
#

Lol

#

Just watched 6000 series release of Radeon and changed my parts list from the 3070 to the 6800XT

oak quartz
#

nah pay $350 more for the 69

#

nice

frozen seal
#

thats a pretty big jump in price but ok

oak quartz
#

but it got that 69er

frozen seal
#

if you're getting the 6800xt, why didnt you plan on getting the 3080 before?

crisp ocean
#

i called newegg to return my 2080 super that was like 3 months old and they gave me back 80% of what i paid
@oak quartz ngl you're lucky you got that much back

frozen seal
#

^

oak quartz
#

it wasnt newegg

#

it was the other company

frozen seal
#

what?

oak quartz
#

said that so i dont get banned

frozen seal
#

also, especially if you didnt get some sort of warrenty

crisp ocean
#

Amazon?

#

You won't get banned for saying other company names

oak quartz

ok

What do you do to get rtx on a non-rtx card?

oak quartz
#

u just yes

weak anvil
#

Got it, I'll ask it nicely

#

Set breakfast on it to keep it warm

crisp ocean
#

like

#

gtx has it unlocked

#

i think its DLSS but im not sure

oak quartz
#

10 fps here i come

weak anvil
#

Yeah ^^^

#

I upgraded to play star citizen so I'm used to it

oak quartz
#

nah its all about that fortnite rtx on

#

jk that game is horrible

#

wish they can add rtx to r6

frozen seal
#

yes

#

r6 best game

weak anvil
#

You could use reflections for cornering

#

That would be pretty OP

#

And give a really strong reason to buy rtx cards

oak quartz
#

yeah but the tradeoff is less fps

#

id say its reasonable

weak anvil
#

I guess if you want that 144-240 range for the extra reaction time yeah

oak quartz
#

i played on 60 fps for the first time in years and it felt like 20 fps

weak anvil
#

Unless it's that bad?

#

Oh gg

oak quartz
#

i play on 280 hx

#

hz*

weak anvil
#

What monitor?

#

I know wrong chat

oak quartz
#

asus tuf

#

vg279qm

crisp ocean
#

valorant or rocket league RTX

#

dope

oak quartz
#

honestly though 240 and 280 is no difference

weak anvil
#

Damn dude and it's not even 3000 dollars

frozen seal
#

bruh ive been playing on 60fps my whole live

#

*life

#

cant type today apparently

oak quartz
#

whats ur specs though

#

if u got like at least a 2060 id get 144 hz

frozen seal
#

1060 6gb

#

lul

oak quartz
#

oof

#

144 hz minecraft

frozen seal
#

upgrading to 3070 tho soon

oak quartz
#

its still decent though

frozen seal
#

and hopefully a 75hz 1440 monitor along with

oak quartz
#

nah dont get that

#

get a 1440p ips 144 hz 1ms

frozen seal
#

but soi much more moneys ;-;

oak quartz
#

but so worth it on the long run

#

but not for ur wallet

#

that thing going to hurt

vagrant gate
#

can anyone recommend a pretty good graphics card or gpu for under $200

oak quartz
#

1650 super

naive girder
#

yup

vagrant gate
#

k thanks

oak quartz
#

or 1660 ti if u want to pay $40 more for more value

naive girder
#

there are 1660 right over 200

oak quartz
#

2 extra gb of vram will help in games like warzone

naive girder
#

but like right over

oak quartz
#

yeah what u said

weak anvil
#

5700 xt, would it be worth investing in a 144 or 120 hz?

oak quartz
#

yeah

#

isnt that like 2060 super performance?

weak anvil
#

Supposedly in the ballpark, but I don't really have any accurate performance

oak quartz
#

it says the 2060 super is 2% faster

#

so same thing basically

vagrant gate
#

im not too used to computer part talk is 12 gb of ram good

fallen mantle
#

3080 op

oak quartz
#

no get 16 gb lmao

weak anvil
#

Okay, so what's anticipated frames from the 2060 supes, then?

#

Say, on minecraft

oak quartz
#

idk

weak anvil
#

regular chunks, nothing fancy

oak quartz
#

like 400-500 im not sure

weak anvil
#

Well I guess that

frozen seal
#

minecraft super low requirements

oak quartz
#

i quit that game like 2 years ago

weak anvil
#

Holy

#

500 frames

oak quartz
#

but it depends on ur cpu

weak anvil
#

Yeah

oak quartz
#

cpu can bottleneck it

frozen seal
#

but say like, r6 on high, you'd get somewhere around 70

weak anvil
#

Can we change usernames to have our main components?

#

I saw somebody do that

frozen seal
#

yes

oak quartz
#

nah on r6 with 2060 super youd get like 120 fps

frozen seal
#

you can change nameto whatever

#

really?

#

high settings?

oak quartz
#

i played r6 with a 2060 1440p i got 100 fps

frozen seal
#

dayum ok

oak quartz
#

so im guessing 2060 super is in that ball park

#

it can actually run 240 fps if u set to competitive settings

regal trench

someone gib me 3070

yeah I only run 1080p so its fine I just want raytracing and get a 4k monitor soon

naive girder
#

no its better i think

fringe leaf

yea the 1070 still slighly faster

oak quartz

raytracing isnt worth it

naive girder

I think you can do ray tracing its just forced

fringe leaf

by like 10fps maybe

oak quartz

I know

Even 75hz makes a noticeable differnce

yea, its alot harder to tell but its still there

uneven portal

It feels smoother cleaner

fringe leaf

exactly

You can't count the frames but you can feel the smoothness

My fx8350 chokes up all the time

And my RX580 can't keep up in 4k

4k breaks some game engines though

I too hope to hit up a microcenter for a 30 series. Was thinking of going next Monday, but I previously heard that restocks are more likely Wed-Fri

Like skyrim doesn't do well in 4k, the UI is all wack

balance between quality and performance

1440p

wait micro center is basically scalper proof right

fringe leaf

i think

In destiny I had to scale down to 1080p in the crucible

But in PVE 4k was fine

Only 1 per family per week

did the chicago microcenter get boarded up

i just want to buy the right card

Yup msi got some good 1s asus too

asus one good as well

evga ftw good but looks ugly

@fringe leaf whats so bad about the ventus i was gonna buy

ventus cards arent well known for their cooling

and tend to overheat

@night zealot ive been watching some Newegg 3080s and 3070s since 3070 launch and haven't seen a restock yet

or well just run very hot

out of all these cards which one is the best one

cause i was gonna get a ventus

The irony runs deep with the ventus

The 3080 got restocked after 3070 dropped 18 hours maybe

is it really that bad lol

@crisp ocean msi gaming x trio
