i like this competition, soon we will have 4K raytrace as the new gaming norm
amd do be helping them get SAM š
iāll call them tomorrow i tell them that it came dead and trust me iām not paying sh*t
yea it's their fault so
basically yea, nothing is in stock, even toilet paper
i thought places are going back into lockdown?
i was tempted to upgrade my little cousin's pc since i only put an rx570 in it as sort a placeholder. but the kid is failing his class, the classes are ending soon so I'm not gonna reward him for failing
tuff
oh lit, you'll do good, it's not that bad
minimum wage dairy queen job go hard
well
not minimum wage
but very low
$9 an hour
yea i recommend all kids to grow up poor just to know how things work
i wish
that's pretty good
get a fun job when you're young, work with young people or something
I hope you mean more along the lines of experience hardships in life to help shape them up for future interactions and give more merit to hard earned stuff?
thats why i chose fast food
So like I still got dibs on the next 3080 @ msrpš
I got dibs on the next 3070 FE then
that's what i was trying to say but i can't articulate :/ @sterile parcel
@paper depot gotta go fast
Change my nickname in here to sonic
Lmao thatās fine man
yea, that's very true
The couldn't even give us an update on the AMD gpus
amd was weird
like 3080 msrp is $700, that's two months worth of high quality groceries
Well you arenāt supposed to buy it in one big purchase
Save up for it
Spread out that 700 over 6 months
groceries have the same amou t of stock as the gpu
"High quality groceries" lmao

Because unlike groceries, PC parts are truly an investment
quality ramen
what have i done
that's funny
Anyways. What PC part would you guys buy first?
Because next paycheck gonna be š
I usually start with psu first idk
Well my main thing is avoiding the CPU and GPU
but tbh whatever is on sale and good deals
plus blackfriday is in a week if you're in the US
Yeah but you see the way stock is?
yea it's pretty rough out there on the streets
Any news on 3080 stock?
Currently at 212 last time I checked
i just want a 3700x and a 5700xt
When itās low was 165 
Thatās my idea
Get a B550 board
Flash the bios with that 3600 to make sure itās 5000
š
You mean the ROG STRIX B550?
F
Well Iām looking at it. My current mobo is worth 146
The ROG STRIX is 40 bucks higher
i think those are horny focus
Well. It does have 2.5 gigabit Ethernet. Hmm
It lacks a 3.2 Gen 1 header
But that isnāt really a big issue
Compared to the MSI B550 Gaming? Apart from like maybe one USB-C and a PS2 port. Not really
But that 2.5 gigabit Ethernet
Hm
Maybe. Iāll look into it later down the line
Very true
Iām gonna look into the VRAMs brb
interesting
Does a 360 rad take up a fan header for the 3 fans it requires?
Because that might be an issue
I've never used aio before but i've seen adaptors for one to plug them all into one header. I might be tripping tho
oh they're called fan header hub?
interesting
ngl tho, a hub would probably look cooler and you can control rgb too
Well Iām thinking an Arctic freezer or a NZXT
Both arenāt RGB focused
So it isnāt really RGB control. Itās more fan speed control
interesting
True
Iām tempted to invest in the rog STRIX then
Better OC and more friendly software to work with
Plus higher ram speed for whatever reason lol
Imma look into it more in depth tomorrow. Like you said best thing is future proof
I just know aorus is a no no
Because they do it funky. If you get a certain board I forget what, but it has I think 4 M.2 PCI-4s. But if you populate all of them, it takes down your x16 to a x8 and itās like 
Who needs that much m.2 gen 4 SSDs?
itās happens when new cards release
also, nvidia never expected this many people to want their cards since COVID-19 made a lot of people want the cards and stuff
i guess.. i read somewhere it was on purpose.. to test card reliability or something
and also scalpers and bots play a huge part in why theyāre out of stock
yeah the bots are super annoying
why would someone not sell something g if itās in high demand
Iām just hoping for a 3070
i can dig up the article if you want... it was related to some issue they were having
i just built an ml rig.. and got my hands on a 2070 super to keep me busy for now
even that disappeared within a day or two
yeah
even thought about buying a gaming machine and stripping it down for parts.. but.... i can wait
hmm, cant find it.. maybe i dreamed it up in a fever dream...
my goal is to have multiple 3090s ... i guess this gives me time to keep saving up
i found one marked up by $100 i might just pulll the trigger
will it really take around 6 months for the 6800s to come back?
@spare ember probably
Any gpu won't have stable stock for a while
makes cents
it does make sense
Does that look okay
noice
idk maybe
Ok
what are you getting souls?
I'm personally waiting for a beefed up 3080, for the time I'm just going to save up to get a new mobo and power supply, maybe even a case.
man clean build although those blue connectors trigger be a lil bit
just went through my daily exercise of putting offers of 750$ on scalped 3080s
lol
funny thing is, there is stock for 3080s. I can just go to the store and buy one today š
I'm torn between trying to get a 3070 now or waiting for a super/to version that'll be around the same price as the 6800
ive gotten 3x 3080s now, 1 more me (FE) 1 for the kid (Xtreme) and 1 for cousin (XC3 Ultra) not hard I guess if your persistant
might want to wait for the 3080Ti im seeing rumors about
Mind me asking where you've had the best luck?
the FE was on Nvidias site, before they went full BB
Extreme was the community signup from Aorus
kid is a Aorus fanboy
A bigger 3080 is outside my price point, 600 is about my Max to spend on a card which is what I think the 3070 to will go for.
XC3 was EVGA auto notify
Cool thanks
yeah, imo 3080 or 6800xt if you dont care about ray tracing or DSLL
3070 kinda trash
Anyone know a good graphics card? I'm in need of one. The GeForce 3070 is a bit too expensive for me
Dollars?
yeap
Ok thanks
otherwise, wait until the 3060s
im happy with my rtx2060s š
i think you will have tons of shit go up Q1 of 2021 as well
Bruh the 2080 is 1300$
Reason: Bad word usage
people be ebaying thier 3080s haha
Anyone got a cheaper alternative?
depending on your gaming rez. if its 1080p lots of options like that 2060s
yeah new
ive seen them on FB marketplace for 400
but its hit or miss, ive seen 1080s for the same, heck I sold a hybrid 1080 a month ago for 400
i think a 2060, 2070 whatever version would be enough , even a 1080ti would be enough, its more about processor at that lower rez anyways
Do you have a link? I can't seem to find it
thats from resellers
Does anyone know where to find them? Can't find them reasonably priced anywhere
2060 new are about 350, what is your budget?
350 seems reasonable. Is the 2060 good?
For 1080p gaming it's at the top. It'll definitely future proof you too for a few years at that resolution.
If you don't need it asap though try waiting until Black Friday/ Cyber Monday to see if any go on sale.
Ok, what websites should I try?
For the sales I say Newegg and Amazon. Otherwise if you find a 2060 that you like the look of or fits the style of the rig you're building you can sometimes buy from the brand site as they have their own stores and sales.
When tou say fits the style what do you mean? Colors?
i have an RX 5600 XT but kind of want to get the nvidia equivalent (2060 KO)
the AMD card doesn't disappoint, i just find the lack of ray tracing disappointing
get a 2060 then
I wouldn't bother if I were faced with that choice
@obsidian plaza I mean if you're going with a certain look or color scheme in your PC.
Oh ok thanks
@obsidian plaza
I wouldnāt touch a 2060 for over 300$
The 5700xt is so much better an available from 360-379$
yea i got a recommendation for a 1660 super
nah it was in another server. Youre good š
@ancient crystal the 2060 ko is kinda the worst for ray tracing so idk if it will even run at playable frame rates on certain titles with rtx on
So rtx shouldnāt really matter for that price point
Imo
Iād wait for the 3060ti or 3070 availability for good ray tracing
3060ti wonāt be more expensive by thag much
If you really want go for a 3060
Thatād be ages better
But 2060, having used my friends for a bit, isnāt worth switching for if you want ray tracing
I have a Radeon HD 5850 lmao
anyone have any idea how much a ryzen 5 2600 would bottleneck a 3060
planning on upgrading to a 3060 from a 1660 super
ah yes yes
Iām upgrading my 5700xt to a 3060ti when it comes out and Iām keeping my 3600
im planning on camping out for a 3060 and im excited hehe
Oh dang
need to upgrade since im also upgrading my oculus rift s to a g2 reverb
What vr games you play?
mostly vr chat lol
Ahhh ok. Iāve never used vr besides like expos so was curious as to what people normally play
Hi guys Im from europe and i am looking for a 3080 but they are all sold out here...
How is it in the US/Canada?
i have seen so many PNY 3080s
what is wrong with them
i mean pny is a good brand i dont understand what is wrong with their gpus then
whats the issue?
i dont know but i never see any reviews or any talk about them and i mean the most helpful thing is a reddit thread that is just people telling the person asking about it to get an asus card because it would perform better
I'll just get 3 1030's and bam 3090
not one of the top known brands
same thing with palit
they just arent known
and so nobody buys them? or what
@slate hinge i see 3080s everywhere
Theres like 10+ at my local target
Same with current gen consoles
can you get me one and send it to me?
xD
I would but no money š
shipping is gonna cost more then the product it self
Theres also a bunch of 5000 series ryzen stocked at it
Most just old ppl here š¤·āāļø
nice what the performance like
nice
I have compaq 510 it has 3gb ram running windows 7, it is a beast and can give me 30 fps (probably less) in original hitman
i got into checkout with a 3080
i accidentally refreshed the page
and its out now
i want to cry
I have compaq 510 it has 3gb ram running windows 7, it is a beast and can give me 30 fps (probably less) in original hitman
@runic anchor RAM is cheap. Get some. 8gb is enough for 'just gaming', but 16gb is best. I wouldn't recommend going past 8gb on such an old system though.
yes
But I didn't get notified for some reason
Normally I am a source of information, but I do have a quick question. PLEASE REPLY IF YOU KNOW WHAT'S DOING THIS.
Where is the setting to change how much system memory is reserved by my RTX 2070 Super 8gb of card. It's reserving 16gb of system RAM for some stupid reason, and I happen to forget where that setting is (it's not a BIOS setting, it's something in the driver, and it's not in Nvidia Control Panel).
Stupid Windows 10 buries every setting I used to edit readily. It's holding up my workflow here. I don't fancy seeing 'Can't run Nvidia Normal Map process due to not having enough system memory (RAM) available'.
I'm making graphics for my BeamNG Drive LOS INJURUS city map mod project. It's been a fight and I've got a deadline tonight to get this uploaded just past 2am when data caps are less.
Reason: Bad word usage
As i need one for college
There's often RAM cheap for sale, used, but still working (RAM sticks don't often break unless something on the motherboard or power supply breaks critically). 3GB is murder these days, especially if gaming. I had to bump up the email PC in the front room (ancient athlon II x2 240 / 2gb ddr2 / Geforce 8100 series video - circa 2008) about a half-dozen years ago from 2gb to 4gb (read: raided the junk drawer) so that Windows 8.1 (at the time) would run properly and feed it a 120gb SSD. Still in use today on otherwise all-original parts. It refuses to die. It made a fool of me wanting to upgrade it. Runs okay with 4gb but it's obviously a pokey slow old thing. It was the last from the XP era machines - but if you're a bit strapped for cash like any college folks would tend to be - slow computer is a million times better than NO computer.
Sit here and wait 10~15 seconds while my system boots only to be made a fool of when the Athlon II x2 2.9ghz PC in the front room used for 'grandma's email' boots Windows 10 in FOUR seconds from BIOS hand-off.
Evga xc3 went out of stock in seconds
Everyone doing gaming in pandemic
FE went available
i got into checkout
and it said not available

im going to cry
@runic anchor yeah i set up my old Haswell system (Z97 4790k delidded with liquid metal / air cooled / Raid 0 256gb Q-pro SSD's (MLC) / 32gb 2400mhz cl-11 memory / Radeon 7850 2gb / Sound blaster sound card) so my little 11 year old niece could play Mine Craft on it with mods. She loves it, and I'm just glad to dust it off and not waste it. It's still a good machine, and I used it for a week or two when I blew up my ASRock motherboard by doing nothing other than running a 3950x on it for two months. Asus for the win folks!
Over a graphic card?
@copper mason man it is a laptop not a pc if it was a pc i might have upgraded it
They'll all come into stock eventually, just tuck the money away for a few weeks time and get one then.
@runic anchor yeah you can upgrade laptop ram on MOST models except the cheapest ones.
how long do you guys think my queue for an rtx 3080 will take
i signed up for one last week
@mighty dock that is best asked to customer service of the site you ordered
hm ok
I would tell you if I could though.
Bestbuy on stock 3070 now
@copper mason it can't do day to day tasks its built in Intel graphics can't do anything in 2020 so why would i upgrade its ram it is of no use
and they say no one goes to brick and mortar stores anymore... heh, I have a bone to pick with anyone who says that when my motherboard gave-up-the-ghost almost 2 months ago in my production machine.
Is the 3070 much better than the 1080ti?
yes
@viral agate nah mate u good
@runic anchor ah if it's intel graphics, yeah I think it's relegated to mostly internet use or ... RIMWORLD use :x
@viral agate yeah I wouldn't go from a 1080Ti 11gb card to anything with less VRAM. Games will start needing that extra few GB of VRAM soon anyway (some already need it).
Buying an 8gb card new and paying MSRP for it right now is a fools errand. You're buying something that will not max out texture details on next year's titles.
Graphic cards are not as expensive as they used to be so u may get a 3070 if u have money
I just got the 1080ti as a place holder but now seeing the 3070 be in stock in store at Best Buy was making me want to pull the trigger
Yeah but they are rare
I got an 8gb card in 2016 and it used half the VRAM right off the bat. Fast forward to sometime around 2019 and it was using most of the 8gb. Now, things will start to more commonly go over 8gb of VRAM since there's more cards coming out that have over 8gb VS just the 1080Ti / Titans / 2080Ti and Radeon VII
If you are getting one just go for it
Iāll keep waiting the 3080 or the 3080ti then if itās not that huge of a difference
You are then good in comparison to 1080ti in long run
anyone got the 6800 xt?
And new series is also including some features which will be very helpful if u want to stream
@stone raft thats sound futuristic
They are out in stores?
II think it was preorders
1 got 1 rtx 3070 in bestbuy today yeahhhhhhhh
lol
In Amazon there are probably 40 50 3070 lying around
Yeah but they are priced at 1000
2 left from gigabyte and many from zotac msi and asus
It is ok for 1080p
U may not experience too high framerates but it can run many todays heavy games no problem
And it is like 250 dollars brand new
1650 is good
@hard sage good deal ,brand new or used ?
Idk pc gaming is not a big thing here probably because many pc components are double the price as compare to countries like US
@hard sage I wouldn't buy an RX 580 when the RX 5500XT exists now.
The 5500XT is a faster card than the RX 580, and is overall a better GPU.
And it's more power efficient too, uses a lot less power than the RX 580
ngl not the biggest change in fps
Yes, but RX 580's don't have warranty support anymore because all of them are ancient now.
So if the card goes kaboom, you are out a GPU.
ik
Whereas, with a 5500XT, you get a faster GPU, and a full warranty
i think mine got a warranty
I doubt it unless you somehow bought a new one.
I'm thinking about getting a new gpu cause I have an rx570, should I get the 5600xt?
I'm trying to get 1080p 240 fps in games, and maybe some 1440p gaming later
depends on the game and the settings
get a 2060 super or 5700xt
Some dude on the bestbuy question and answers are on the MSI 6800xt is saying it come out November 26th 10am EST
nice
its a pretty decent card
i have it

i cant get on the zotacstore for some reason
thatās expensive
is there a noticable difference between asus dual 3070 8g and 08g?
i got 2 graphic card 3070 in bestbuy today so happy
You canāt run 3070ās in SLI
thats so sad
Only 3090ās support it
thats doo doo
And SLI will not be continued in any future graphics cards by NVIDA
So happy
nice

Guys can someone tell me equivalent of ryzen 4650g igpu (vega 7)
what should I get for a good budget/first video card for davinci studio, and valorant
2 use 2 different credit card
Ight which of you guys got that 3080 that came in stock, I specifically called dibs 
Do we know how long it'll be till the 3070 super/ti is set to release?
As an alternative to a nvidia card because all the 20s are overpriced, is the 5700 xt good? Like reliable?
ok because all the 2070s and 2060 supers have been like 200 dollars overpriced
hey guys should I get a 1050 Ti
it only has like 4 gigs of gddr5
i found one for $300 is that good?
lmao im kidding
A 1050Ti for $300 
I already got a 5700XT
@inland hound which one did you get?
Sapphire Nitro+ SE
After the gigabyte sold out on newegg I'm peepin the Taichi
Not that this means much but they throwing imma router worth 150
Not that I need a router
Lol
It's about 399 with the mail in rebate they throw in god of war and a router
Not bad I guess
free is always better than the compitition
God of War... for the Playstation?
I wish they threw in god of war lmao
Yaaa
Zelda BoTW in 4k 60fps is f*cking awesome
I cant even
probably should take this to general chat
Yeah one of my bois would always emulate all the old ps games and nintendo games on his x580
hi All
Always looked cool
Hey there
What news have you brought for us?
Are the 3070s back in stock?

I am looking to get a newer gpu for my desktop was looking at https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-radeon-rx-5700-xt-gv-r57xtgaming-oc-8gd/p/N82E16814932322 any ideas if it would work with a asus z87a lga 1150
that's overprice
That's after it sold out
Before it was 380 with the promo code
The Newegg sold out and a third party rat from Hong Kong tryna sell it for 540
yea my mistake not buying the gigabyte one yesterday and waited for too long
damn
I suspect they'll restock soon
i wouldnt spend any more than 400 on a 5700 xt
Shouldn't this be the correct one? https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-radeon-rx-5700-xt-gv-r57xtgaming-8gd-rev-2-0/p/N82E16814932338
even the asus rog strix is sold out, isn't that one the hottest defective performing card?
Um I know the TUF was pretty defective
yea the TUF runs above 100c
They had to rebrand it to TUF Neo after fixing all the issues
The MSI one is kinda thermally impaired
asus should just stop making gpu
Nahhh
the MSI mech oc ?
the asus z87a is a mother board that i have
Yeah think it was the mech OC from what I remember
people say the mech oc is loud and hot
thx
why are all the gpus for nvidia expensive now š¦
mining crisis back in 2016
what asus tuf running hott??
That's when I did, before the Zen 2 and RDNA launches is when I got everything
that's crazy
why is that?
i awlays assumed it was lack of inventory but i could be wrong
a 3070 cheaper than 2070super
yeah
so what is you all thoughts on the Radeon gpu compare to Nvidia. (I saw couple of vids on them but I want more opinions).
amd drivers can be very irritating.
yea the driver talk was going on for a year
nvidia for video editing/content creation, 4k, rt, better drivers, amd gpu for better 1080p gaming, cheaper and more efficient, but not as good support
its hard to get a good nvidia card rn for good price.
yes
radeon is fine
idk why it gets flak anymore
5700xt is jsut a great card for way less than the comparable 2070s
super
the drivers have been sorted, i ahd issues bc i was dumb and was on 6 month old ones
same
I think dismissing radeon for anything other than 1080p gaming just because that's one of their strongest points compared to Nvidia right now is short sighted. After all if you're after for solid 1080p gaming, the last thing you should be looking at is at $600+ graphics cards
yeah at that point 1440p or even 4k
yes
im aiming for 1440p personally
Yes 1440p
4k to me is a little much for gaming
Sure, we finally have more attainable hardware fit for the task
Though displays at least if you want more than 60Hz are gonna be a bit pricey
yeah. i think 4k is more for rendering or watching
I think with how close people are to their monitors typically 4k is overkill if anything
Seems more like a living room experience if that's what you're looking for
definitely
I need good gpu for 400$ anybody got something to show me but no amd
the closest thing ive found is a 1660 ti
Well I could get a 3070 if they come back in stock but
I sought they will anytime soon
Doubt
even then good luck getting one
Yea they will prob sell out in like 10seconds
i think it was 5 mins last time
People be reselling them for like 1,500$ too like bro
actual cro magnins
i might just be desperate enough
š
seeing microcenters with lines weeks before launch is crazy
Can you imagine the Black Friday lines
COVID cases on black Friday are gonna be through the roof

oh sr bro i buy for my brother too that why i have 2 credits card
I am just going to enjoy this while I can, because I know it's not going to last....
lol its all good, i was just joking
vs the world
haha i know. Bestbuy they update graphic card random everytime.
i hesitated to buy the rx5700xt for a minute and it's out of stock too
5000 not 6000
They do, but their queue system actually works pretty well if you're around when inventory goes up
i meant the 3070
yeah in us!
lasttime i checked at 2am in morning but too later for me
morning today i so lucky that why i can get 2
that's lucky
so boys i bought this pc think it was worth? https://www.ibuypower.com/Store/AMD-Radeon-6000-Series-Gaming-Reborn-Max
i need it to run minecraft
if you are happy, that is all that matters @lyric scarab
i mean i think its worth it tho
i did change up some of the things and it costed around 1900
but like with optifine imma be hitting like 1.5k maybe more fps on minecraft
what time did you check
im from the west coast so i want the best time to check
@lyric scarab then go and enjoy the system :)
wont get it for a bit
I'm thinking about buying a 2060 for 300 bucks on ebay, then just buying a 3080 next year when the Ti comes out and people stop freaking out over the og card
at least then I could get decent non RT perf on cyberpunk and other games at 1440p
considering we dont know how the Gold version of Cyberpunk will perform, dont worry so much @weary flax :)
yea but like
I have a 1050Ti right now
Its not a fun time
3090 is so expensive $1800
look at what the 2060 (or whatever card you end up with) can give you VS what you have
and focus on that :)
use one of those benchmark testers
nah, just lean on actual reviews instead
honestly with how the market is right now, I'd rather just wait until December and get the 3080 when they finally come in stock.
yea
this is not in stock right now and it's a waste of time trying to refresh the pages for the entire day
is it allowed to buy a gpu, use it, and return it when the 3070 somes in stock?
I've been using a service which alerts you when its in stock.
I actually had one in checkout of amazon when it was like "hah no"
Sure if you can manage that in a 30 day time window
Well there might be laws in place depending, but either way that kind of thing is handled by the retailer
What do you have now?
nothing
I mean you could get a 2060
Its nothing even close to a 3070
first time build
Don't spend any more than like 300 on one tho, if that
yeah
I'd say get a $200 or less card and go with that, you'll have good performance for 1080p
im gonna run a 5600x
today i checked at 8:30am. But I think they random times to fight the bot
dont buy rx 5600x it not support for future
future what
Means it doesn't have a lot of new technologies integrated and the price will quickly depreciate
no i have a 5600x for my cpu. these names are so weirdly similar its confusing
its better than 1080 to 1650
i think asus and evga they will have more 3070 on stock soon before Dec
do we know how big these restocks are?
they're always at least more than one
i only need one
so as long as im first
i can get one
@vocal thicket generally, that is confidential information, so no :)
hm
What do you do if it's only one, do you cut the card in half or somefin'? 
are the xc3 card gddr6x?
check Asus everytime, Yesterday i saw them maintenance web.
oooh
You're only checking Asus?
im just downloading a bunch of retailers apps and checking notify me
im mostly on amazon, newegg, b and h, and asus
but amazon is just weird
everyting is above 900$ for a 3070
if i were to get a 3080 which aib should i get or is it FE all the way and same for 6800xt should i ever see it with my eyes
FE looks nice
mainly asking for perf not looks there was a reddit post that showed some perf scores but they didnt include every 3080 variant like the strix
wow crazy! I got MSI - GeForce RTX 3070 VENTUS 3X OC BV - 8GB GDDR6 + tax = $606 + free promotional code for GeForce
At this point you're lucky to get anything at all
@analog hawk 5 days, and then all the AIB's should be launching their 6000 series cards
nice BunNem
wait but what about like the 3080 what variant should i be looking out for
if the dual 3070 o8g comes in stock on asus, should i get it?
530$
or wait for FE
FE on Bestbuy only
Whats the difference between FE one non FE?
non-fe (aib) are based on the fe with changes from the retailer
What did you think it meant? For Everyone? 
3080 went in stock this morning for about 20 seconds I bet (probably less)
Lol idk
Once that notif goes out people go scrambling to buy it, it'll be like that for a while
EVGA they email me for 3080 and 3090 on stock in DEC
EVGA is using some kind of Queue method aren't they?
Yea I'm in the nowinstock discord
I still keep pre-order in there , i will tell everyone know when they email me in stock
what does that do?
It probably has a bot running a script to notify for stock or something?
yesterday i newegg too, 30s for rtx 3070
auto notify in EVGA, when they have it, they will email u and u have 8 hours for order
How long does that usually take?
yeah im looking at that on evga website rn
Who knows
maybe i just get the ftw3 and call it a day or gaming x trio when available
You're gonna be on the bottom of the list though, so it all depends how many cards they're pushing out
what the diff between oc edition and regular in asus
They give priority to those who have signed up for the advance notice. That's why you always see out of stock
factory overclock
do they oc the card for you?
Yeah you're paying for higher clocks, which I mean you can do yourself technically 
i not sure.
Oh
so that 30mhz in clock speed costs 30 dollars
So all you have to do is use the auto notify thing beside out of stock and ur in the queue?
They gotta pick out the best silicon to ensure it's stable too 
yes, they will sent u a link will your account in evga and they add this card in cart for u
I don't have an evga account tho
yeah^
evga by far has the most production for 30 series
nvidia do be giving evga more chips than for their own FE
i see a 3090 FTW3 restock every 2 seconds on amazon
Ah
@lone pond you might want to consider deleting that picture
Why
server name
idek what to do with this 30 series anymore, i have had an order placed on OcUK for a strix 3080 OC for over 2 weeks now and ive gone up 52 spaces in the line that im 1241st in...

get it else where and return it
amazon has taken their listings down
you can't do anything about it rn
only way to see it is through ASUS amazon store
ik its just really thrustrating that in TWO WEEKS OcUK gets 50 shipments...
i agree
like aren't there suppost to be factories pumping them out?
did anyone grab the 5800x
like 2 whole weeks and the best they can do is 50
on neweeg with the mobo combo
it depends on nvidia's factory to pump the card itself out, the partners only slaps a fan and heatsink of them
nope but if you're getting 5000 series get 5900 or 5600 cause 5800 falls in a really weird spot in terms of P-P
yeah but the strix is custom
@hidden carbon ahhok
only think from NVIDIA is the actual chip itself
thing*
the rest is up to them for stock
but 2 WEEKS!!!
like everything had decent stock before except for PSUs
so surely COVID-19 cant be affedcting production of memory or anything like that
especially considering ram prices are at all time lows this year
affecting production to this rate*
a few months is what they're saying
and thats at todays demand
not demand in a few months
just got a gtx 1660 over clocked its pretty great
nice
@viral elbow im ngl tho
im acc considering cancleing the order and buying a couple 2080s off ebay
cause they're essentially the same price at this point
how much were you paying the store for the preorder and do you need it now?
im paying OCuk £900 for it and i dont really need it now i stilll got my 1060
its just really annoying to not have anything for the money
that's understandable
yeah its the only down side of my build really aswell
i been waiting for it
but i thought your 1060 was like a holding on gpu until you get the new ones
hey its fine i still have a 1650
if you mean i bought it to wait for this i acc bout it ages ago and have upgraded everything else but the GPU
and i've waited for this
i have the money for an upgrade but im waiting for amd stock to fill
was gonna buy a 3070
i see
then ended up having enough for the 3080
for me I've been waiting for 10 years so i might as well...
that's nice
if i get it
wait so what do you have thats 10 years old?
like what GPU
obv
i want to get the new ryzen 5 5600x and the rx 6800xt
yea if you're not sitting on the websites pressing f5 all day everyday then it won't be available until q1 next year
it's some amd low tier gpu back in the days
then i switched to a 9500gt
I was able to grab an MSI ventus 3070 this morning, was hoping for a 3080 originally but I'm just ready to get my build done
where'd you get it from
it's probably called Radeon HD something, but the thing failed on me so i threw it away last year
Online bestbuy
oh best buy
im eu we dont got stuff like that
sorry
UK
theres a big diff there
lmao
yea UK is more difficult i would assume
the only tech stored we have is Currys PC World
good stuff
just ask here @lucid heath
alr cool
man people are flooding ebay with fake 3080 listings, they're only making things worse
build chat is fine too but this server isn't too specific on that kinda stuff
Thanks, going to go nicely with the 5600x I snagged at launch
things like "Do not buy this! Don't buy from scalpers!"
@neat skiff ikr i went to look at some listings to see some of the hilarious reviews but they were all removed by mods and the listings no longer existed
nice 5600x
i want one
yea sometimes people are quite opinion based
@hidden carbon still got a bunch of 3080 shades and stuff listed lol
what card is it, like asus tuf, FTW3 etc etc
ik
they go up all the time
also if you look at sold items there's a bunch of cards that sold for $1 recently
damn
probably fake, there's no way
unless
i mean
its probably the most active ebay has been
if some have been lost i wouldn't be surprised
Some kind of weird attempt at price manipulation?
how so?
yeah maybe
Eh probably wouldn't do anything, but at the very least it's confusing people
it's screwing up my spreadsheets 
I leveled up I guess lol
lol
is that a thing lol?
yeah I think this server has MEE6
!rank
GodlyWulf [3700x] [1060] [32GB], that command is disabled in this channel.
yep
there is a potential reason for making a sale for 1usd if you can swing it (as a scalper)
Got a pretty common question here. Doesn't matter who answers it. I have a gtx 1060 3GB. Should I wait till a 30 series card magically comes in stock or just go for a 20 series? Im doing 1440p gaming.
dont know if you have thought about the upside for a scalper doing that @neat skiff
@wary owl you've waited this long just wait a bit longer for much better perf
@wary owl do you have a high refresh rate monitor or plan on getting one?
future proof now instead of having to do smth later
I have a gigabyte 34" ultrawide 144hz
noice
yeah you're gonna wanna wait
to drive that you're gonna need something beefy
Ok. Just making sure.
if you wanna wait out another 2 serie's of cards i recc you go for 30 series if you wanna play new games like 2077 and otheres
Theres a pic of it in the build pix channel
oh you're the jet engine looking PC dude
Reason: Bad word usage
according to my ebay data, on the used market a regular 1080 is the best price/performance on every card more powerful than a 2060
The station is still a WIP
I was trying to say I play, destiny, halo, squad, siege, anime games, and vr games for reference
you planning on playing any new games?
Halo infinite. That is literally all im waiting for.
i mean tbh a 1070ti would be fine for that tbh
idk if anyone will find it useful
Well dang
3070 at MSRP is highly competitive with used cards, crazily enough
with the amount im spending on my 3080 is enough for 2 1080tis...
yeah but SLI is kinda dead
most games don't support it properly
lol
1060 still does well though
like i have no problems with it still
2 years of 250+MHz OC and its still going sub 70 degrees
I sold my 1070 ti so I'm stuck with an old 680 ti till I can manage to grab a 3000 series card :V
I know its bottle-necking my system but as long as I know whether I need to wait or not is what matters
i didnt realise thats what people were doing so i got to where i am now with my 1060 and a 650w gold PSU that are about to be replaced and sold on ebay for hopefully £150 which i can use on some new storage drives or a new MOBO
leaning towards mobo
are you missing some features you might need from a new mobo or something?
ah dang
power delivery simply not powerful enough
AND
my ram can only run at 3200MHz when both kits are rated for 3600
ah that's a shame
and task manager says 1600 for some reason
which i looked up
and apparently thats normal
idk
weird
I recently got a 5600x, new mobo and RAM and I gotta say, having 32GB is so nice
now I can have open all the tabs I want lol
I kept brushing up against my 16GB limit all the time so I sprung for it
any reason why newegg is showing the three msi 3070s and one evga card under in stock when theyre out of stock?
so it doesnt indicate if new stock arrives?
why those 4 cards tho
it was just the 3 msi ones earlier now its an evga one too
idk
pretty sure there should be otherd
but pretty sure its just not quickl enough to get past the bots
thats why its not working properly
does anyone know the email address auto-notify emails on newegg come from? I'm currently trying to setup a filter in gmail so I can be sure to get the notification
Msi 3070 in stock newegg now
I got it in morning so I hope everyone get it
Damn best buy got stock of the white 3080 today and I missed it...kms
Thought you wanted msrp
the rtx 3080 is 700 usd which is supposed to be 915 cad
instead they sell the 3080 for 1250 cad
Dafuq
lol. ive been refreshing the msi cards "in stock" for 2 hours and they finally show up in stock. adding to cart just throws "oops something went wrong on our end" at me, very nice
Entire country is scalping
glad i spent my day off f5ing this page
Rip brother
When do the 6000 series aib cards come out, I forgot
like 25th
Aib?
The one thing I'm happy for though is that the in stock tracker isn't saying stuff is selling out within 1 or 2 minutes, we are now getting like 5-10 š
Add in Board partners, the ones making their custom variants of the cards
Speaking of which check out the thiccness of the Powercolor Red Devil relative to the original cooler
It felt like such a random tweet too, like out of nowhere..."Oh hey, dont mind us just restocking here."
I think though I either want the Asus 3080 or the founders edition
FE would be nice to have aswell 
Are the 3080s going to drop tonight?
Anyone know where I can get the gtx 1660 super it out of stock on nvidias website
i bought mine on newegg
@lone pond where would they drop?
At my front door
ugh ive been looking endlessly
im just seeing people resell for 1200 and up, everyone ive talked to about their 3070's are already selling them for $800
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/4JTGPV this is my current parts list was wanting a 3070 or 80/ 6800 or xt variant is there another card worth considering even as a temp card
Why canāt a random person just knock on my door and hand me a 3070
They can, but you have to buy it first
why cant Nvidia and AMD get their ish togethe?...
You might be able to work with a 5600XT or 2060 as a temp card I'd say
currently have a 2060 super but i want 3080 or 6800xt at this point im preparing to wait till Jan
I'm waiting for a cheap 5700XT or for 6700XT to come out for a potential upgrade
I saw people mention the not reference cards go on sale next week for the amd 6000 series is it known what day next week
Iām trying to build a new mid-range rig and Iāll probably use a Ryzen 5 3600. What gpu should I pair it with?
I kind of was thinking an RX 5600 XT would be pretty nice but
Iām not too sure
