[dawn plover]

sadness

[warped osprey]

so i took screenshots

sorry if this counts as spam

[dawn plover]

nice

[warped osprey]

i managed to squeeze 16 things to that price

[lone pond]

nice

lol

[dawn plover]

screenshots are gone

[warped osprey]

i did not mean to do that

should i post them again?

im posting them again in case someone wants to see

[dawn plover]

bruh no nvme drive smh

[hardy wind]

no mobo people c'mon

you couldnt see that

[dawn plover]

there is a mobo you fool

[hardy wind]

no mobo people c'mon
@hardy wind im blind

holy crap im blind

i looked at it 3 times befor sending that

and after sending it i saw it

wow

[dawn plover]

lmao

[hardy wind]

i wanna die rn

[warped osprey]

bruh

[lone pond]

Should i get a 1050 Ti?

[jovial goblet]

nope, might as well get a 1650 super or a 1660 super because its a few dollars more

[eager timber]

the gigabyte itx vers of those are good pricing

[tame canopy]

I got a 1050 for $40

[eager timber]

how?

was it a mining gpu

[novel kestrel]

Three more days until 6800x

Hopefully can order one in time, no Idea when they'd go live to orde

[fluid star]

[eager timber]

anything more to setup now that i have a 1660 oc?

[acoustic crest]

Hopefully can order one in time, no Idea when they'd go live to orde
@novel kestrel 6am pst / 9am est is probably most likely

[novel kestrel]

2pm UK time then

[acoustic crest]

yeah

that's when zen 3 came out and when they've release other things in the past

[novel kestrel]

Sweet

[ancient crystal]

@acoustic crest nice industrial music pioneer/luminary nick

[acoustic crest]

@ancient crystal that reference is rarely caught thanks ha

[glad saffron]

Who are all the Partners that make AMD cards, I wanna be sitting on one of their sites come Wednesday to nab a 6800xt

[jovial goblet]

sapphire, asus, gigabyte, msi, powercolor

there are other ones, forgot the names

[fluid star]

asus enough

[glad saffron]

So camp out asus website, gotcha

Or are we talking amazon/bestbuy

[ripe ivy]

I would recommend maybe avoiding Asus Radeon cards, at least not without a review first. History has shown them dropping the ball on the Radeon side

[fluid star]

[ripe ivy]

See the 5700(XT) debacle with both their TUF and ROG models, the TUF model didn't have adequate memory cooling and the ROG model didn't have proper mounting pressure.

[jovial goblet]

So camp out asus website, gotcha

Or are we talking amazon/bestbuy
@glad saffron bestbuy

also try micro center

and maybe b&h

amd as of recent has been dropping their stocks on micro center and best buy

[ripe ivy]

Oh, I just remembered. AIB partner cards aren't even coming out on launch. They're coming out 2 weeks later

So you technically have 2 chances to get one

[hidden carbon]

@warped osprey you should spend ATLEAST half if not 3/4 of your budget on CPU and GPU

also that ryzen 3 is on the weak side and wont allow any future GPU upgrades without upgrading It itself

[lone pond]

lmao who buys from only amazon

u can save money by just getting each part from the cheapest sites

[empty mountain]

how much is a used 1080 ti?

[lone pond]

Anywhere from 350 to 500 usd

[empty mountain]

thx

[fluid star]

[midnight pollen]

What is a good gpu for 400 dollars ish

[strong comet]

Rx 5700 xt sapphire pulse?

Might be what you're looking for

[midnight pollen]

Ok

Thanks

[prisma snow]

[dim wraith]

I bought the ASUS tuf z390 mother board. I have no display. I get the three short beeps when starting computer. I have tried plugging up display port and hdmi, but nothing. Looking for suggestions. I have updated the bios. I managed to plug in a MSI Graphics board.

I am trying to run multiple monitors and getting frustrated

[prisma snow]

idk man

[lone pond]

what cpu?

[dim wraith]

intel 1151 - i5

it will come up, but not with the onboard

https://www.newegg.com/intel-core-i5-9th-gen-core-i5-9400f/p/N82E16819117981?Item=9SIA2W09379170

i think i just figured out my problem

[hidden carbon]

@dim wraith most likely a RAM problem

try 1 stick at a time

in the second slot from the right first

[dawn plover]

yeah those three beeps indicate something

[hidden carbon]

sorry Left*

[dawn plover]

get ur mobo’s manual

[valid sundial]

@dim wraith most likely a RAM problem
@hidden carbon doubt it

[lone pond]

@dim wraith remove gpu and put it back in

[lone pond]

Is the 6800 non xt > the 5700 xt? Gaming on a 27 inch 1440p @144

[worn pumice]

In theory yes

[fringe quest]

Whats the best graphics card worse than the 3070 im curious

[burnt parcel]

probably 2080 ti right?

[fringe quest]

Idk

[tired scroll]

the 2080 ti and 3070 are very similar in performance

[lone pond]

3070 still better tho

By a slight bit

[main rapids]

The 3070 has an upgraded Ray Tracing core, so that might be better even at the same speeds...

I am now waiting for the 30X0 TI series... January timeframe... I have a 2070 Super now so I can wait...

[bitter jungle]

Is the 1070 TI duke a good model of 1070 TI?

[vital meadow]

Can someone tell me if this is a good gpu as I know nothing about computers but I have this graphics card, that I somehow will have to build myself lol

[ripe ivy]

You have it, like did you buy it or what?

[vital meadow]

Yes it’s a present

@ripe ivy

[ripe ivy]

So someone bought it for you, well yeah it's a pretty good card. Do you have the rest of the computer to pair it with?

[vital meadow]

Yes I have a i5-10400 processor though

😐

[ripe ivy]

I mean it's fine, you know. For the money it's not a bad option

[vital meadow]

@ripe ivy is I5-10400 a good processor or not really

[ripe ivy]

Yeah it works well

It isn't a screamer, but it's fine

[vital meadow]

Will I be able to play highest settings and get good FPS on 1080p with that build do you think?

[ripe ivy]

Actually that graphics card is well suited for 1440p

So yeah, absolutely it will do really well at 1080p

[vital meadow]

No I mean like for frames per second

[ripe ivy]

Um I guess a point of concern might be RAM speeds

[vital meadow]

On 1080

My ram is 2666mhz

But my friend told me because of the I5-10400 Intel card you don’t need 3000mhz

[ripe ivy]

Unfortunately that's what the CPU is limited to on the B460 chipset

Actually on Z490 you can get RAM that fast, and it does benefit the CPU

[vital meadow]

Ye but I got told just to get a lower motherboard as I only need 2666mhz

[ripe ivy]

It's only limited to 2666 on any chipset other than Z490, but yeah that's the only limiting factor

Intel shafting budget options pretty much

It can't be helped, but it won't hold things back by a lot or anything

[vital meadow]

He said that if I got a amd cpu I would have to get 3000mhz

For it to work well

[ripe ivy]

There's really no tangible cost difference between 2666 and 3000

[vital meadow]

@ripe ivy what do you mean by chipset

What is a chipset

The cpu?

[ripe ivy]

The motherboard chipset

B460, Z490 that's what's called the chipset

[vital meadow]

So you mean my cpu can’t get 3000mhz unless it’s a z490 motherboard

[ripe ivy]

Correct, Intel limits i5s to 2666 and i7s and higher to 2933 on anything lower than Z490

[vital meadow]

Ok

@ripe ivy I have a AOC 24”G2U 1080P 144Hz tv also. Do you think this is a good monitor as someone in discord recommended it and convinced me to buy it

[ripe ivy]

Looks pretty good, better than what I have

[vital meadow]

What do you have

[ripe ivy]

Acer 1080p IPS 75Hz, I got a couple of em for $100 each

[vital meadow]

That sounds good too I think that’s better than mine

Acer

[ripe ivy]

Nah the refresh rate is like half, so it's not as good

[vital meadow]

Oh

[ripe ivy]

144Hz is good, it's what let's you see the high framerates

Well perceive the high framerate

[vital meadow]

Ok so I can see 144fps

[ripe ivy]

Yeah if you can manage a framerate that high consistently, it'll be a smooth experience as long as games are running above 100fps

And uh yeah the 5700XT will do that well at 1080p

[vital meadow]

Does my cpu matter in fps?

That I get in games

Or just my graphics card

[ripe ivy]

Yeah sort of, it's gotten to the point where 1080p is sort of limited by CPU performance

So a faster CPU will benefit for higher framerates a lot of the time

But that doesn't matter too much for say AAA games at max settings

Like even with a 10400 you'll see probably over 200FPS in certain e-sports games if you play any of those

[vital meadow]

I’m hoping I can play cyberpunk at max settings when it comes out with over 100fps that sounds good

[ripe ivy]

I guess we'll find out if or when it comes out?

[vital meadow]

What graphics card and processor do you have

[ripe ivy]

Ryzen 5 2600 and Radeon RX 580

[vital meadow]

Is that better than mine

[ripe ivy]

Uh I would say no

[vital meadow]

I think your graphics card is better than mine

More performance

[ripe ivy]

Nah it can't be, it's older

[vital meadow]

Some older cards can be better than new ones can’t they?

[ripe ivy]

Sure, but that's if you're comparing a lower end newer card to a higher end older card or something like that

[vital meadow]

Is your processor better than I5-10400?

[ripe ivy]

RX 580 is giving high end performance from like 2014 or something

Just barely enough to do alright at 1080p

[vital meadow]

What do you mean ?

[ripe ivy]

And uh depends honestly

Probably not though

[vital meadow]

So my processor is just enough for 1080p

[ripe ivy]

No

Processor is only relevant at 1080p, if you were going for a higher resolution like 1440p it actually matters less

[vital meadow]

Oh

[ripe ivy]

When I said barely enough to do alright at 1080 I was referring to my graphics card

[vital meadow]

Li was going to buy a 1440p monitor but I don’t think I’ll get over 100fps

[ripe ivy]

Eh turning down settings can do wonders

[vital meadow]

Ye true

Do you have a gaming headset

[ripe ivy]

Nah, I use regular headphones

[vital meadow]

I got a gaming one but I used to use regular apple headphones

[opaque stratus]

5700 xt vs 2060 s who's better?

[vital meadow]

That’s what I have

I don’t know though sorry

@opaque stratus If you get a 5700xt make sure it’s Gaming X that’s what someone told me

[ripe ivy]

5700XT is steadily beating the 2060 Super on average, even competing with the 2070 Super

It comes down to if you need Cuda, Nvenc or I dunno want RTX?

[opaque stratus]

My 5700 xt broke so i change it for a 2060 s

[ripe ivy]

Features sell

You couldn't RMA it?

[opaque stratus]

i did that xd

[frozen seal]

thats a rough exchange

[vital meadow]

@opaque stratus get a rtx 3090 that’s the best one

[ripe ivy]

Oh okay, did you opt for your money back or?

[opaque stratus]

i changed it mostly for the RTX i think cyberpunk will run better on a 2060 s ,no?

[ripe ivy]

It'll run, and you'll have RTX sure

[vital meadow]

I used to have a rtx 2060 and it was amazing

[ripe ivy]

I don't think it will be better though

[vital meadow]

I59600kf and rtx 2060 I had

[frozen seal]

but you'll have to have it a prolly medium setting at 1080 for rtx

with the 2060S that is

and thats for 50-60 fps most likely

[opaque stratus]

i dunno i just got mad because the 5700 xt broke on a week so i changed to nvidia again xd

[ripe ivy]

What was it specifically?

[frozen seal]

how exactly did it break?

[bold hemlock]

HIi

[opaque stratus]

i just install it normaly and the sometimes black screen of death

[ripe ivy]

Oh did you have an nvidia card before then?

[opaque stratus]

i tried fix it by my self with drivers and that but on a week got bored so i sent it for warranty

[bold hemlock]

It was probably a driver problem

[opaque stratus]

@ripe ivy yeah i had nvidia before

It wasn't driver problem

[ripe ivy]

Oh uh what did you do driver wise?

DDU, fresh install and all that?

[bold hemlock]

Anyways i am using a 5700xt right now and it doesn't give any problem

[opaque stratus]

i sent it for warranty and they told me that when they test it, the GPU never gave image

[ripe ivy]

Oh, a lemon

[opaque stratus]

yeah it was a hardware problem

[ripe ivy]

It can happen

[opaque stratus]

I just got mad for nothing xd

[ripe ivy]

Who was the brand?

[bold hemlock]

so it had some problems but it doesn't mean that all the amd 5700xt have it

[opaque stratus]

8 GIGAS.GIGABYTE.AMD.RADEON RX 5700XT.OC.GAMING

This was the card

[bold hemlock]

Not bad

[ripe ivy]

Oh okay Gigabyte, they've been doing pretty well on the cooler side of things lately

[opaque stratus]

@bold hemlock i know i just got mad because i waited so much and pay a lot for that

[ripe ivy]

For Radeon the best brands are Sapphire and Powercolor I would say

[bold hemlock]

It isn't cheap but defenitely cheaper than the nvidia par

part

[pine rapids]

red devil, nitro+ and gaming x are top 3 best cards imo

cooling and aesthetic wise

[bold hemlock]

for the same performance

what nvidia did you buy to replace it?

[opaque stratus]

yeah i know, i just pay like $50 of difference for being mad, but i dunno if i did a good choice

2060super

[bold hemlock]

Considering that the 5700xt is almost a 2080 but without the rtx

[opaque stratus]

slowdonw cowboy the 5700 xt is good but not thatttt god

xd

[bold hemlock]

it wasn't bad for the price, maybe you should have bought another one, hoping for no hardware problems haha

[ripe ivy]

It actually is pretty close to that level of performance

[bold hemlock]

It is, i tested it myself

and you can also look for benchmarks on youtube

[ripe ivy]

At stock it's easily on par with a 1080Ti

[opaque stratus]

i dunno, i just can trust on the bencmark

[pine rapids]

yea

[ripe ivy]

With a little OC you're pushing pretty close

[opaque stratus]

With OC i think it can be close but on stock i dunno

[bold hemlock]

on stock it is basically a 2070 super

little more

[pine rapids]

if the game is optimized, its better

[opaque stratus]

Stop making me feel bad for my choices xd

[bold hemlock]

if amd starts using ray tracing with the directx 12, there would be no reasons to buy a nvidia card at all

[pine rapids]

dlss is the only reason imo

[bold hemlock]

if i remember right AMD has a similar filter

let me check

[ripe ivy]

Eh I mean even with DLSS on the table, the fact that it's proprietary and limited to games at the developer's discretion it's still not a selling point

[pine rapids]

yea for their new cards

they have a dlss alternative

[ripe ivy]

They don't have one yet, but they're working on something

[bold hemlock]

talking about the 5000 series, amd was still winning for the prices imo

for the 6000 series they're trynna win with everything, they already have more power

imagine if they make a smiliar ray tracing / dlss

at that prices they said

[ripe ivy]

From leaked benchmarks, the 6800 is already faster than the 3070 at raytracing when DLSS isn't the factor, though once you flip it on the 3070 takes the lead. So yeah they need an equivalent

[pine rapids]

but once they make one

6000 cards are gonna stomp in ray tracing

[brisk flame]

the 6800 is also 80 dollars more than the 3070

so it had better perform better overall

[pine rapids]

i mean

[ripe ivy]

If MSRP was even realistic

[pine rapids]

ye

[ripe ivy]

Have you seen a 3070 at MSRP?

[brisk flame]

give it time

[ripe ivy]

I think with time AMD will bring the price down anyway

[brisk flame]

as of now, the 6800 will be the only option due to availability, yes

[pine rapids]

do you guys know how the evga queue works

[brisk flame]

but once the 3070+ moves to TSMC, they sould be much more available

i highly doubt AMD will adjust msrp

[ripe ivy]

Yeah I doubt they're going to be moving things to TSMC

[brisk flame]

highly

they are tho

[ripe ivy]

They will for like a refresh of some kind

But at that point, it's not going to be the same cards

[brisk flame]

thats what i would expect, do a super/ti variant on tsmc, gives them an opportunity to combat amds pricing

but ampere availability in general should be much better

by then

[ripe ivy]

I wouldn't expect that, they're going to use what they have from Samsung because they have no choice to for the time being

[brisk flame]

yes, for now

[ripe ivy]

An Ampere refresh will happen I think

[sinful crater]

No budget, i need a gpu that can do 1080p 144hz high settings on most games

No overkill tho

[frozen seal]

rtx or no rtx

thats basically just the difference between a 3070/3080 and a 6800xt

3070 for no rtx

3080/6800xt for rtx

[limpid latch]

is it6800 stomp in ray tracing as in suck,yes! lol

[sinful crater]

Rtx 😈😈😈

[hollow heath]

Hello

[daring tusk]

so does that mean a 3070 wouldnt perform well with RTX in 1080p 144Hz?

[limpid latch]

id suspect it would perform similar to a 2080ti w/ ray tracing?

[frozen seal]

better with ray tracing

[hollow heath]

Is the 2080TI still better than a 3070?

[frozen seal]

slightly

not with ray tracing tho

[spice prawn]

raster performance is currently better

and if the vram matters

there is that part too

[limpid latch]

give or take takes blows at eachother but like naed said

[sinful crater]

hmmm

[hollow heath]

So if I find a 2080TI for 500 it's pretty much the same thing?

[spice prawn]

if you dont need/want the RT improvements? basically yes

[hollow heath]

Damn I wanna find one but for 500 it's like almost impossible

[limpid latch]

check ebay saw a week ago someone w/ a kingpin 2080ti w/ radiator for 400

[hollow heath]

Fr?

I see 700 the cheapest

[ripe ivy]

For a used card?

[hollow heath]

Yeah

[rose adder]

evga b stock is pretty good value

2070 super $360

idk how much the 2080 ti's are going for tho

you also get 1 year warrenty

gotta setup a web alert to check when they restock or else you will miss it though, they sell out in like ~30 mins or so

[jovial goblet]

idk how much the 2080 ti's are going for tho
@rose adder last time they were in bstock, they sold for around 650-750 depending on the kind of shroud it had

[rose adder]

yike that's too expensive

[limpid latch]

still no stepup tho

better off getting a moderate 2000 and stepup and wait for 3080ti

[glass briar]

You guys think I will get 100 FPS on fortnite with the 3090? I got it yesterday

[sinful crater]

nahh

you need sli

[dawn plover]

^^

[sinful crater]

will a 2070 super get 144 fps in 1080p high settings paired with my 3700x non oc

[ripe ivy]

144fps at what though?

[dawn plover]

^^

[hybrid kettle]

Csgo? Yes it will

Crysis? No

Maybe jk i don’t know anything about crysis except that it’s a meme

[lone pond]

I bought this graphics card for $145

[weary halo]

sooo what is it?

[coarse spindle]

RTX 3080 in stock at CDW

[hollow heath]

Should I back order a 3070?

[daring tusk]

i thought there werent any 3070 back orders?

who is doing the back order?

[hollow heath]

CDW

[daring tusk]

dont they are selling them over priced

[hollow heath]

603 isn't too bad

[daring tusk]

the pny revel one is at bestbuy for $539.99

[ripe ivy]

600 for a 3070 is bad though

[daring tusk]

the zotac one is 569.99 on newegg

dont over pay just for a backorder

[hollow heath]

Idkkkk

I want one

I could technically sell both my GPUs and get one

[crisp ocean]

Zotac gpu is hopefully gonna be good

[daring tusk]

the only reason i would justify overpaying is if you absolutely need one like if your current one is broken and you have to use a pc for work and you dont have another pc to use

but if you did you wouldnt be back ordering

[hollow heath]

Damn you got the 5600X and 3070? rip

I can't catch a break

[ripe ivy]

I understand the urgency, but like if you're graphics card that you're using now isn't literally dying; well then this shouldn't be urgent actually

[daring tusk]

exactly

[hollow heath]

Yeah true

I'm trynna sell my old GPU and nobody wants to buy it lol

How much you think I can get for it

It's an MSI 1070 TI AERO it's a blower card

[dawn plover]

bruh you're still selling that thing

[hollow heath]

Yes lmao

[dawn plover]

haha

[hollow heath]

I literally have it for sale at 250

[dawn plover]

bring the price down to 200

[hollow heath]

I might sell my old Mobo too

B450 Tomahawk Max

[dawn plover]

sheesh

that still sells at like 100 bucks lmao

[hollow heath]

Lol fr?

[ripe ivy]

Well it came out last year, and it's still a very relevant budget board

I guess the chipset is two years old

But the Max designation let's it work for a while

Like Zen 3 should be no problem to get working on it

[hollow heath]

Jk jk

The RTX 3070 will never be in stock lmaoo

[dawn plover]

smh

[hollow heath]

I did buy a 2070 tho

EVGA 2070 XC Ultra

What's the price on that?

[crisp ocean]

The RTX 3070 will never be in stock lmaoo
@hollow heath try a microcenter if you have one near you

[hollow heath]

I do not lol I'm in FLorida

[dawn plover]

bruh i live in the silicon valley and like, there's no microcenter here smh the closest one is in tustin

but yeah microcenters are a better if you want a higher guarantee rate of getting a card

sorry if i worded that wrong im tired

[frigid crypt]

I got to the Tustin one all the time lol

[dawn plover]

you live by there?

[frigid crypt]

Yeah, it’s always full. Seriously

[dawn plover]

what a lucky individual

if i wanted to go there i'd have to drive like 4-5 hours or so and at that point, i'd say it wouldn't be worth it lmao

[frigid crypt]

They kinda suck when it comes to graphics cards. 1650 and smaller cards. I had to go to Best Buy online to get a gtx 1660 super.

[frozen seal]

canada computers do be better tho

they let you reserve a back-ordered card

[dawn plover]

dang

best buy only has a small corner of pc components

[frigid crypt]

Yeah, Best Buy is an every person store, frys is in between and Microcenter is more niche

[frozen seal]

frys?

what?

the US has a computer store named after its second favourite food?

[dawn plover]

😳

[frigid crypt]

Frys is an electronic store as well. They are a Best Buy but a little more nerdy. Not as much as micro center. Look them up. Frys computer or electronic store

I actually got my first graphics card upgrade there years ago. Gtx 1050. Ah i remember it well. Didn’t have a clue what I was doing. Installed the card on the carpet!

[dawn plover]

😳

[ripe ivy]

Fry's is barely afloat from what I've been hearing

[toxic bay]

hey can you guys help me out eith my gpu

my rx460 4gb keeps on crashing it dosent over heat my temps are under 60 and when my gpu crashes the fa still spins

[frozen seal]

whats your PSU?

[toxic bay]

evga 450 watt bt 80 plus bronze non mondulare

when ever i got my gpu it still was the same problem

cause my psu my uncle gave it to me and before he did he used a rx 580 with my psu rn

i have alredy but it did the same thing it just crashed

cause my gpu rn is a gtx 760

ik

lmao

[ripe ivy]

GTX 760, RX 460?

Which is it?

Okay, well you've cleaned the drivers between installations right?

[toxic bay]

yea i did

[ripe ivy]

Hmm what a shame

[toxic bay]

yea ik lmao

lmao

gonna go for a 1050 for 30 bucks lmao

[ripe ivy]

Look for a Rx 470 or 480

[toxic bay]

for crismas i might just ask for a new gpu

yea im gonna go for nvida 30 series

jk lmao im too broke to get tht

[ripe ivy]

Well even if you could ~450w PSU

[toxic bay]

lmao

[arctic phoenix]

oh no

if u get a 1050 for 30$

that things gonna be a gtx 430 with a modded vbios

[hollow heath]

Lmao

[brazen rune]

anyone know what the amd equivalent will be to the rtx 3060ti?

[lone pond]

Noticed some weirdness when I booted up my pc

[limpid latch]

already got a 3090

harder to sell now not worth higher prices

[hollow heath]

Lol true

[hollow heath]

He was scamming

[flat cedar]

Hey I could use some advice on graphics cards. Right now I have a RTX 2060 and can run Assassin's Creed at 1440p at around 60-70 fps on medium, but want to be able to run it on a higher setting with better frames, what do you think would be adequate?

[hollow heath]

Well what’s your budget

And how much more fps? @flat cedar

[flat cedar]

Budget isn't an issue, something in the 100 range hopefully, I have a 144hz monitor but am not expecting to maintain that all the time.

[hollow heath]

Well you could go for a 2070 super or wait for the 3070

[hollow zephyr]

should my friend get a 5700xt paired with r5 3600xt?

or a prebuilt with a 10700f and 2060s

he doesnt want to wait for the new cards being that he's still in hs so his christmas break is pretty limited

so pretty much out of the question

but go team red or team blue?

[hollow heath]

Well

Can I see the specs for both?

[hollow zephyr]

mmm hol up

[hollow heath]

Bet

[hollow zephyr]

[steel smelt]

I'd say this is more about going team green or team red

[hollow zephyr]

you mean blue lmao

[steel smelt]

No, the graphics cards

[hollow zephyr]

i also forgot to mention that 3600xt will have a b550 mb

ohh lmao

i was worried about the futureproofing of the machine itself

not so much ab the graphics

either option is nice either way

his budget is exactly $1000

[steel smelt]

Oh okay. For furture proofing the AMD is better because you can always upgrade to the 5000 series on the same board

[hollow heath]

True

[hollow zephyr]

yeah really the only benefit imo

i wanted to use something with at least 6 cores

https://www.newegg.com/asus-rog-strix-gl10dh-nh764/p/N82E16883221574?Item=N82E16883221574&Tpk=83-221-574?cm_sp=BlackFriday-_-eflyer-_-2020-_-1123-1127

wait another option has arrived

[steel smelt]

was there a reason you wanted the 3600xt over the 3600x or 3600?

[hollow zephyr]

its less expensive lmao

all the prices have skyrocketed

trust me i wouldve picked the 3600 if it was cheaper

i have a cooler for him so its not a problem that it doesnt ship with one

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Vp8kJf

this is the building route

the 5700xt is $420 rn has an extra $40 off

more room for some storage

possibly even a pcie 4.0 drive

[steel smelt]

If you wait until black friday, or maybe before then, you should be able to find a 3600 for much less. Either way though, the AMD system is more future proofed, and you could buy a 2060 for 350-450

[hollow zephyr]

u sure about the 3600

[jovial goblet]

get a 3600xt instead

[hollow zephyr]

im more than sure they're going to stop production

and the xt is priced just right

[jovial goblet]

it will be just as cheap when black friday comes

[hollow zephyr]

but that other prebuilt comes with a 3700x and a 2060s

just no b550 mb

[jovial goblet]

thats a good deal

[hollow zephyr]

ikr

[jovial goblet]

but needs a mobo upgrade

[hollow zephyr]

not necessarily

he wouldnt need to until he upgrades the processor

[steel smelt]

If you're comfortable with the price then go for it. I'm building a similar rig for my roomie, I had the same debate. I'm going to risk seeing if they pop back up. A week ago you could get a 3600x for 199.99

[jovial goblet]

if you were to upgrade to a 5600x in the future

[hollow zephyr]

which he wouldnt be doing

hes not lmao

[hollow heath]

Lol

[jovial goblet]

that build is solid for the price

[hollow zephyr]

yeah i'd rather build it myself

have a beefier psu

[jovial goblet]

theres a seasonic focus gold

its 79

[hollow zephyr]

whats the wattage

[jovial goblet]

550w gold 80+ for 79 is a good deal

semi modular

[hollow zephyr]

wanna go minimum 650W tho

for upgradability

[jovial goblet]

3070?

[hollow zephyr]

the gpu he might wanna upgrade

yeah

or future cards within the next year

[steel smelt]

That motherboard can run a 5000 series CPU for future proofing, I have a B550M MORTAR with a 5600x in it.

[hollow zephyr]

you got one???

lucky

[steel smelt]

But with the graphics card.

I would say either is a solid pick-up, just depends on the price you can grab them for.

[hollow zephyr]

yeah no doubt

he plays really similar games to what i play

[jovial goblet]

i made a list for a friend 3 weeks before the 5600x dropped

it had a 3700x

now hes waiting for a 3080

[hollow zephyr]

and i run everything pretty much maxed at 1440p

too long of a wait for my friend

he got like 2 weeks off for school

hs vibes lmao

[jovial goblet]

also felt bad for my friend since he waited for the 3070 drop but he didnt get one

[hollow zephyr]

rip

[steel smelt]

One thing you can do right now is pick up your parts from places like NewEgg or MicroCenter with Black Friday price guarantees. That way if things go cheaper you'll get a refund.

[hollow zephyr]

true

[steel smelt]

SirU that sucks man

[jovial goblet]

oh

[hollow zephyr]

yeah i'll have him start picking up stuff rn then

[jovial goblet]

try evga bstock for psus @hollow zephyr

[hollow zephyr]

that too

[jovial goblet]

there are tons there for sale at 80+ gold efficiency

[hollow zephyr]

nah i saw a sick deal on a 2080s for like $450

sold out tho

https://www.newegg.com/evga-supernova-650-ga-220-ga-0650-x1-650w/p/1HU-00J7-004V5?Item=1HU-00J7-004V5&Tpk=1HU-00J7-004V5?cm_sp=BlackFriday-_-eflyer-_-2020-_-1123-1127

apparently this is on sale for 90

[hollow zephyr]

wait thats actually sick

[jovial goblet]

kek the one on bstock is cheaper

[hollow zephyr]

yeah ill have him start buying tomorrow

[jovial goblet]

i think bstock restocks every sunday or monday

[hollow zephyr]

sum like that

i'll have him look for stuff on mid-week madness too

[steel smelt]

Yeah, I'd go with the above over what you have listed. Nice find @jovial goblet

[jovial goblet]

i like checking bstock

[hollow zephyr]

me too whenever im looking for someone lmao

[jovial goblet]

they have a gtx titan for 350

[hollow zephyr]

helped some kid the other day at bestbuy

he almost bought into all the rgb and not the specs

[jovial goblet]

id rather have rgb just on my fans than anywhere else

and id rather have it on white or purple than going rainbow

[hollow zephyr]

yeah thats the only place they had it charging $800 for single channel 8gb ram clocked at prolly 2133mhz

[jovial goblet]

damn

[hollow zephyr]

frfr

they almost scammed my man

[jovial goblet]

thats not worth it

[hollow zephyr]

gave him my discord

yeah that'd be an awful feeling

[jovial goblet]

last time i went to best buy to buy pc stuff, the salesman thought he knew more than me and tried downselling me

[hollow zephyr]

buying what would be a midrange priced pc and you get garbage

yeah i educated that kid and his mom on everything

[jovial goblet]

i also wouldnt recommend buying pcs on the phone with sales rep for certain brands

[hollow zephyr]

i wouldnt even think of doing that lmao

so we're going the building route i suppose?

am i waiting for the 3600 or 3600x to go on sale or just cop the 3600xt

[jovial goblet]

ibuypower, cyberpower, origin, and nzxt are good pc builders

just get the 3600xt

[hollow zephyr]

im giving him my wraith prism if i end up getting an aio

[jovial goblet]

at least they dont use proprietary motherboards with only 2 ram channels

[steel smelt]

I'd say get the 3600xt withg the price right now, but if you see a 3600x for 199.99 or a 3600 for 150 grab that instead.

[hollow zephyr]

so i buy the 5700xt at 380 i assume?

idk i'll ask him and see what he wants

he doesnt know much

but just having the option of waiting

[steel smelt]

is there a reason that you're leaning towards a 5700xt over a 2060?

[jovial goblet]

the 5700xt is better

[hollow zephyr]

5700xt is better

for only 80 more its worth the jump

[steel smelt]

true

[hollow zephyr]

and drivers arent an issue anymore

[steel smelt]

Personally I just have a hard time looking at spending 400 plus on a card right now knowing that the next gen will be aorund that price for a bunch more performance

[hollow zephyr]

exactlyyy

but he doesnt want to spend his whole christmas break doing nothing

[steel smelt]

that's a fair point

[hollow zephyr]

i told him he wouldnt be able to get his hands on the new gen consoles for a minute either

so he's stuck waiting egardless

*regardless

[steel smelt]

yeah, unless he wants to camp out a store on release lol

[hollow zephyr]

lmao nah

i prefer 1440p at 144hz over 4k 60

pretty sure he would too

just a better experience

[steel smelt]

I'm comfy at 1440p. Just want me some good raytracing 😛

[hollow zephyr]

yeah same

[next swan]

I have an Rex 1660ti

Rex

[hollow zephyr]

im waiting till like feb to cop one

possibly a 6900xt if money is good

[lone pond]

what do you think about the 6800?

[steel smelt]

if all you want is 1440 with ray tracing you'll be good with a 3070 or 6800

[hollow zephyr]

i think its nice for the money

[fervent obsidian]

can't think much until we see reviews

[lone pond]

ok thank you

[hollow zephyr]

^^^6

[lone pond]

what

[hollow zephyr]

looking for a good 1080p machine tho

[lone pond]

i not good with part picking

[hollow zephyr]

lmao rip

nah i just need help on telling my friend why pc is still better than console

he just needs to experience it for himself ig

he's stuck on the original xbox one

[lone pond]

upgradablity
ray trasing

[hollow zephyr]

i've never had to blink so many times trying to render what is going on

literal garbage

[lone pond]

cusimizability rgb

[hollow zephyr]

lmao

[steel smelt]

Right now, It's a really hard to make that point though. A PS5 or the new Xbox cost the same as just a 3070 and they run great at 1440p

[lone pond]

true

[hollow zephyr]

yeah but no tv runs 1440p

[steel smelt]

I still prefer my PC over a console, it's just a hard point to make right now

[lone pond]

but a pc can be used for many things

[fervent obsidian]

anyone with a brain would never go back to console

[hollow zephyr]

and a good amount of 4k tvs dont support 120hz

[lone pond]

unless you boot linux on an xbox if you can

[hollow zephyr]

and he only has a 32" tv for his console rn

literally no point of getting the new consoles

[lone pond]

oh that is kinda small

yea i guess

[steel smelt]

Lads I'm with you. I love my PC and only play a PS4 for exclusives. I was just saying it's hard to tell non PC gamers this with the quality of the new consoles .

[hollow zephyr]

creating a solid 1080p 144hz is so much better than the ne consoles imo

[lone pond]

yea

[hollow zephyr]

he doesnt care about exclusives either lmao

maybe the new halo

and even then thats on pc now

[steel smelt]

Halo will be on PC though

[hollow zephyr]

ik i just said lmao

he only ever plays cod

[lone pond]

if i was going to stay on pc i would also stick with the switch

[hollow zephyr]

not even utilizing the specs of the new consoles

if hes not on a 4k tv

[lone pond]

yea

i still have a 1080 60hz tv for my xbox

[hollow zephyr]

idk when hes gonna upgrade tho

i have an old pc lying around might throw some new stuff in there

[lone pond]

he might upgrade if he has the money

[hollow zephyr]

and some of my current stuff when i upgrade

yeah

just need him to come over and experience what it like to not lag from rendering

and it actually look good

[lone pond]

yea

that is a big part about pcs

[hollow zephyr]

yeah

they're nice

[lone pond]

i have not made one myself but i have heard alot of great things

and i need to get better at typing

[hollow zephyr]

same here

trying to get up to 100wpm

[warped osprey]

msi's 1660 super ventus is at a pretty good value

[hollow zephyr]

i'd rather wait

[warped osprey]

for what?

a better gpu?

[viral elbow]

By the time the 3070 and 3080 stock becomes normal, a new gpu would probably be announced

[warped osprey]

and with pricing logic the price of the 3070 and 3080 would probably have lowered by that time

i see

[viral elbow]

True

[warped osprey]

but what if you need a pc right now and just can't wait another 3 or 4 years for a new gpu

[viral elbow]

Yea so get the 1660 s now

So by the time you need an upgrade it would be justified

[fossil talon]

Black Friday probably has a better deal for the 1660

[viral elbow]

Exactly

[fossil talon]

Like go for the 1660ti or super (basically same model)

[warped osprey]

would b.f apply to online shopping too?

[fossil talon]

B.f ?

[warped osprey]

actually i never really knew the difference between ti models and super models

black friday

i call it b.f for short

[viral elbow]

From what I’ve watched I think there aren’t much difference to worth the price difference on msrp

I could be wrong

[fossil talon]

For the 1660, ti and super are practically the same. They are just more vram and higher clocked than the regular 1660.

[warped osprey]

i think the super models are like a wanna-be ti

[fossil talon]

The rest of the line up though is different. The ti is generally better than super.

i think the super models are like a wanna-be ti
@warped osprey
Pretty much 👌

[viral elbow]

Honestly I was hoping to get the 3000, and then the stock situation happened, and now I’ve lost hope for the amd cards too, so might as well just get the 5700xt on Black Friday

[fossil talon]

You could try getting the RX 6000s this Wednesday

[viral elbow]

Oh right it’s Wednesday

Almost forgot

Do you happen to know the launch time?

[fossil talon]

Yep, I swear it's going to be as hard or worse than the RTX 3000s releases

[warped osprey]

hopefully stocks are gonne be at least better than Nvidia's crash

[fossil talon]

I'm not sure actually. I don't think AMD has a release time yet

[viral elbow]

That would suck, I guess I’ll just wake up early

Or stay up, I gotta finish an essay anyway

[fossil talon]

Or design python bots....well that failed for me

[viral elbow]

Yea it’s rough out there

[warped osprey]

imagine camping in front of a micro center or local computer store and realize you couldn't even get it

[viral elbow]

That would suck majorly

[fossil talon]

Ngl, at least those people are more civilized than the election protests

[viral elbow]

I would probably have a breakdown

[warped osprey]

lol

[fossil talon]

Like they have roll calls and line ups

[warped osprey]

have you seen bitwit's vid on it?

[fossil talon]

I've seen Austin Evans, Bitwit and several other youtubers

[viral elbow]

I stopped watching bitwit after that racist video

💀that’s just me

[warped osprey]

ouf

[fossil talon]

Oh........

[warped osprey]

i mean he cool now i guess

that perspective differs to each person

[fossil talon]

https://stockx.com/nvidia-geforce-rtx-3070-graphics-card-founders-edition-black

Isn't this absurd

[viral elbow]

Objectively speaking From what I remember he did have some resourceful video tho

[warped osprey]

lemme guess stock bad

[fossil talon]

Price stonks

[viral elbow]

Lmao, stockx wants a piece of that pie too

[fossil talon]

Lol ikr

[viral elbow]

Sneaker scalping isn’t enough for them and now pc tech too

[fossil talon]

I'm honestly debating about selling mine. If I get the RX 6800 or XT, I'll sell my 3070, if not I'll keep it.

[hollow heath]

Fr

[warped osprey]

[hollow heath]

Lol please don’t sell and if you do sell it

I’ll buy it for retail lol

[viral elbow]

I mean, it’s a crappy thing to do, but then, capitalism do be like that

[warped osprey]

put it on a shelf and put a sticky note beside it and write, biggest disappointment

[fossil talon]

Ik, I want to be ethical but then people are offering insane prices

[viral elbow]

It kind of feel justified, and almost stupid when you’re not participating

[fossil talon]

Basically alot of unnecessary stress

[warped osprey]

i mean the performance of the 6000 series gpus is insane

[fossil talon]

Ikr

[viral elbow]

and cheaper

[warped osprey]

and at half or third of the price ye

[fossil talon]

Welcome to competition

[viral elbow]

It’s a great time to be a gamer

[warped osprey]

[warped osprey]

i beg to differ

sometimes it gets overpriced

[wheat wharf]

ye the 3070 is 750$ here

and it's not even an oc

[fossil talon]

[warped osprey]

pricing on tech really is all over the place huh

[wheat wharf]

$715 in Canada
@fossil talon which dollar

canadian or us

[fossil talon]

CAD

[warped osprey]

Canadian dollar

[wheat wharf]

im talking abt us

[fossil talon]

So $675 plus GST

[wheat wharf]

750 us

[hollow heath]

Rip

[warped osprey]

but wouldn't it cost more in Canada

[fossil talon]

Wait it can't be $750 USD, are you talking about current market pricing

[wheat wharf]

in my country it's 750

[fossil talon]

Like it should be $500 USD MSRP

[wheat wharf]

nope

750

here

[fossil talon]

Rip

[wheat wharf]

yep

[warped osprey]

[fossil talon]

@warped osprey nope i mean it
@wheat wharf
Engineering student. I actually need it for autocad and programs

[warped osprey]

Isn’t a 2070 about the same as a 2060 super
@hollow heath and thats why we have something called bargains

[fossil talon]

@fossil talon my old pc broke a month before school started so i had time to get a new one

[warped osprey]

[wheat wharf]

is the 1080 still worth it

just asking

[warped osprey]

yes

[fossil talon]

Yes

[warped osprey]

well

[wheat wharf]

how much is it

[warped osprey]

kinda

[fossil talon]

Not many things can run 4k smoothly yet

[warped osprey]

it beats 2060

[fossil talon]

And 8K is terribly far

[wheat wharf]

Not many things can run 4k smoothly yet
@fossil talon 3080

[warped osprey]

ahem 6000 series gpus

[wheat wharf]

that thing runs it pretty nice

ahem 6000 series gpus
@warped osprey never was an amd gpu fan

[fossil talon]

I don't mean graphics cards, I mean displays and programs that can handle it

[wheat wharf]

oh ok

[warped osprey]

8k tv with 144hz or 75hz

[fossil talon]

Realistically, the average consumer uses 1080-1440p

[wheat wharf]

ye

[warped osprey]

but our tech is big bad so we have 60hz xap

[wheat wharf]

i use 1080p lmao 😩

@warped osprey lmao

is it a zotac mini

[warped osprey]

evga has some good deals sometimes

[fossil talon]

Yea, CAD pricing isn't that bad. Sometimes we are exactly the conversion pricing or $15-20 more. Also I've seen some cases where we were cheaper than the US

[warped osprey]

msi

[wheat wharf]

oh

[warped osprey]

actually its not 450

the one in my cart is 360

msi 1660 super ventus

always low stock cuz of the price

usually 5 to 20 are in atock

[hollow heath]

Hm

[wheat wharf]

my friend bought a 1660 ti with a 10700 isnt that a bit overkill for th gpu

[warped osprey]

bruh

[fossil talon]

my friend bought a 1660 ti with a 10700 isnt that a bit overkill for th gpu

Yep a bit overkill

[warped osprey]

bruh with that cpu i thought they would be streaming

[wheat wharf]

lmao

[fossil talon]

It's fine honestly, they just future proof themselves

[wheat wharf]

well ima head out for now

Hey guys, I’m looking to buy a gpu in the price range of 300-350, maybe even a little more if it makes sense to over spend a little, and im a newbie and don’t really know what The best gpu that money can get me. Any recommendations?

[fading shard]

Willing to spend about 200 more and get a rlly good gpu for your money?

[lone pond]

5700 xt

200 more is a stretch

50 more is much more achievable

[fading shard]

A stretch but if willing then it is good

[lone pond]

yeah but a 5700 xt would last just as on especially on 1080p]

its mainly cpu based

buy me rtx 3070 i give 1 diamond minecraft no skem

[fading shard]

No way really??????

That’s a steal

I'm trying to upgrade an Alienware Aurora R5 that was built with an Nvidia GTX 970 and 460W power supply. I have a new 850W EVGA power supply, & now looking for replacement for the 970 - but having trouble finding one. Computer case limits me to about 10.5 inches in length. Any help appreciated.

[jovial goblet]

there are 5700xt gpus under 266mm (converted it from in to mm)

[lone pond]

why is everyone upset at the 3070 ?

Its 600 dollars
