midnight oxide
#

#

jolly otter
#

ripe ivy
#

I bought a monitor already, I'm not gonna be getting anything else phaSip

midnight oxide
#

#

pine rapids
#

winter dagger
wild quest
#

Whats the difference between the RX 500 and RX 500x cards?

ripe ivy
#

It's coming Friday too

#

So we'll see if I get screwed

pine rapids
#

what monitor is it

ripe ivy
#

A Pixio high refresh monitor, it's 1080p

jolly otter
pine rapids
#

@midnight oxide hardware unbox on youtube has a good video comparison of most the 5700xt cards

#

i might get a pixio too lol

winter dagger
midnight oxide
#

yeah i watched it earlier this morning hahah

pine rapids
#

i got my gf a 24in one and its really good

#

think ima go with a 1440p one tho

jolly otter
#

pretty sure most places accept unopened un-defective returns, might have to pay a restocking fee though tbh

wild quest
#

No i mean 580 vs 580x (for example)

winter dagger
#

That doesn’t exist

ripe ivy
#

There is a 580x

midnight oxide
#

thank you guys for ur help have a great night!

pine rapids
#

return policy rn are really nice since its extended

ripe ivy
#

But it's OEM only

wild quest
ripe ivy
#

And I have no clue what the difference is

warped loom
#

my microcenter doesn't allow returns on heaphones even if they are unopened because you know the virus

winter dagger
wild quest
#

^^^

winter dagger
#

I think the X are just factory OC

pine rapids
#

must be nice to have a microcenter nearby

warped loom
#

aka pc heaven

jolly otter
#

the restocking fee was 20% on one site i checked, kinda sucks, some places might take the return without the fee if its within 15 or 30 days

#

yes, newegg does

warped loom
#

I'm praying to get one of the 3070 combos when there restocked

pine rapids
#

amazon's return policy for monitors rn is like 90days

#

and gl on getting a 3070

jolly otter
#

amazon has the best return policy ever lol

pine rapids
#

its a nice card

#

and yea, amazon's return policy is so simple

warped loom
#

gigabyte eagle 3070 and a 750w fully modular psu πŸ™‚

jolly otter
#

its often you can get free items due to needing to return them and not knowing they are un-returnable

#

cause they just refund it

pine rapids
#

its the one thing that keeps me from buying from them, if i have to return something back to newegg, its usually a pain to do

#

@warped loom if you wait out for a bundle, your chances of getting a card is gonna be lowered

wild quest
#

Apparently 750w is too much for a 2700x and 2060super

pine rapids
#

when the 3080 launched, i was picky with cards and got none

wild quest
#

Can it take a 5950x and 6900xt though?

pine rapids
#

second time came around with the 3070 and i picked whatever i and got a card on launch

warped loom
#

but I also look when the induvidual cards are restocked

pine rapids
#

o nice

wild quest
#

I wanna completely overhaul my system

pine rapids
#

ik some ppl who like tunneled vision on rog cards lol

warped loom
#

the zotac twin edge oc it was avalible but i don't like the design

pine rapids
#

i got the card i wanted least lol

#

i hated the fe cards but here i am with one

warped loom
#

for me it is either asus ko 3070/tuf, evga xc3, gigabyte

pine rapids
#

i would of taken any card tbh

#

but ima get a 3080 so ig it doesnt matter

warped loom
#

iirc there weren't any dual fan 3080's ?

pine rapids
#

zotac will prob drop one in the future

jolly otter
#

i want to experience cyberpunk with good ray tracing and stuff, but wont be able to get a 3070 or 3080 in time, idk what card to get instead or if i should just put off playing cyberpunk

#

or play it anyways without ray tracing

warped loom
#

but I was gonna buy a evga ftw ultra off my friend for 610$

#

but he changed his mind last minute

pine rapids
#

rip

#

thats what card im on the waitlist for, ftw3 gaming or something

wild quest
#

It would be cool if evga made AMD mobos and GPUs

#

But sadly they're stuck with nvidia and intel

winter dagger
#

^^^

pine rapids
#

mmm, i feel like if they were to make amd cards, it would be similar to xfx cards

wild quest
#

I wonder if any of the AIBs are making cards with blow-through design with the 6800xt?

#

They might be im not sure

pine rapids
#

the 3000 cards look kinda disappointing

#

imo

wild quest
#

I still think the FE cards are secksy

#

And the EVGA Kingpin

#

Even though some ppl say its plain

warped loom
#

alright back to keeping an eye out on restocks. Someone made a dedicated server that notifies you when the cards are back in stock. Also 5th gen ryzen and the 6000 series πŸ™‚

wild quest
#

I kinda like plain

pine rapids
#

if evga didnt add the red accents on their cards

#

it would be perfect

wild quest
#

FACTS

#

I dont like fish lips

pine rapids
#

yea lol

#

msi's trio card this year was disappointing too

#

i like last year's trio card a lot more

warped loom
#

it do be a chonky boy

burnt parcel
#

yes

warped loom
#

well the aorus xtreme 3080 even more chonky

wild quest
#

I count 24 pins on that gpu

pine rapids
#

sag bracket is a must for newer cards

wild quest
warped loom
#

lol in that case the bottom fans are alrady support

wild quest
#

Its missing pci bracket

last breach
#

that is gigantic

wild quest
#

^^^

pine rapids
#

there are some 4 slot cards

wild quest
#

JESUS

pine rapids
#

4 slot 3080s, not evn 3090

last breach
#

why

#

why

warped loom
#

lol the day 24pin is the standard for gpus

wild quest
#

damn that must be an absolute chonker

last breach
#

you can hear the pci slot scream in pain when u slot that in

wild quest
#

Yes

warped loom
#

extra chonk gpu soon

wild quest
#

Someone gonna eventually make a gpu that slots into two pcie slots side-by side

pine rapids
#

i dont think pcie slots were made for cards this chunky

wild quest
#

Remember when armored pcie slots were a "gimmick"

pine rapids
#

back then it was basically jus a pcb

#

and pcie bracket lol

warped loom
#

lol when your gpu uses two pcie slots, it doesn't even need a support bracket

wild quest
#

Now look at us laughing in 2020 with FOUR slot cards

pine rapids
#

i feel like with a thick card, if you accidentally bump into ur pc, its ripping out the pcie slot

jovial goblet
#

I remember the 1030

#

Its just a single slot pcb, bracket and passive cooler

pine rapids
#

i almost bought a 1030

#

tough times

jovial goblet
#

3 way sli 1030

pine rapids
#

the size of one card lmao

jovial goblet
#

Changing aio?

pine rapids
#

#

cant decide what to get and dont wanna cash out

jovial goblet
#

Look up the rog long boi

pine rapids
#

jovial goblet
#

Its the ryujin 240

pine rapids
#

way over budget lmao

jovial goblet
#

Whats your budget?

pine rapids
#

i think ima spend 130 max

#

since im copping a 1440p monitor along side with it

jovial goblet
#

240 or 280?

pine rapids
#

240

#

i want 280, but that means new rgb fans i have to buy

jovial goblet

3070 easy to get

pine rapids

all the 6800xts rn look eh, gonna wait for more aibs b4 i try for it

burnt parcel
#

im playing 1080p so im good

#

even raytracing is ok at 1080p

#

still only 30fps on mc

pine rapids
#

im making the jump to 1440p

#

so the 3080 is justified

burnt parcel
#

yeah

wild quest
#

I'm gonna wait until next summer maybe

#

For a 6900/xt

#

Yeah I think ill get an Xt

uneven portal
#

6900 not confirmed yet

#

I think it'll likely come when more volume is available

#

Think end of q1

#

I wonder if it will have 80CU though πŸ€”

#

76 maybe? 78?!?

ripe ivy
#

Seems kind of pointless to cut it down, the difference between the 6800XT and 6900XT we know probably won't be that big right?

uneven portal
#

I can't wait for that 2.8ghz software limit to be broken

bitter jungle
#

Nope. ASRock support refused to give me the info

uneven portal
#

Working in support is the pits sometimes

uneven portal
#

For all we know the 6900XT can clock at 3.3ghz

#

We know the 6800XT can do 2.8ghz on LN2

#

And then the software doesn't allow it go go faster

ripe ivy
#

That would be pretty fun to see

uneven portal
#

Because the slider reaches the maximum

wild quest
#

Sad

uneven portal
#

I had predicted that the 6900XT would handily beat the 3090

#

And the more days go by the more it looks like it will be the case

ripe ivy
#

I think if there is a 6900 those will be lower binned models for the AIBs to sell pretty much

wild quest
#

Isn't there a way to get a hacked software to oc more?

ripe ivy
#

Still 80CUs though

uneven portal
#

The 6000 series is conservatively clocked

wild quest
#

^^^

#

Facts

uneven portal
#

The hacked/updated software will come

wild quest
#

I hope CDNA isn't dummy expensive (I want datamining cards)

uneven portal
#

AMD is manufacturing mining specific cards

wild quest
#

Ah thats good

uneven portal
#

So you $%^*#(%^& can let me game on max settings

#

I also mine btw

#

Actually I stopped

#

The S9 wasn't worth the electricity after a while

#

We got together and bought a r4 and a S9+

#

We were break even at 10k

#

Right now we're rolling in it so to speak

#

I mined shtcoins for a winter with my RX580

#

I ahd about 100$ worth

#

I think I'd be lucky to have 5$ for my sh coins now

#

But the antminers man, those things were something

#

BTC is at 18.86K USD right now

#

We pretty much doubled out investment

Hopefully there is enough in stock rn to last at least 10 minutes

thank you newegg for finally allowing me to place my 3090 strix order after having it ripped out of my cart 4 times prior since launch

Before order cancellation

what aib card do you think will be best for the 6800xt?

slim dawn

I'm rooting for msi

#

you think the reference cards that bestbuy put up last week will finally be sold?

iron holly
#

radeon 580 or MSI 2060?

burnt parcel
#

why 580

#

why not 5600xt

#

get a 5600xt unless you want raytracing then get 2060

tidal bough
#

5700xt any good

jovial goblet
#

@tidal bough yeah if you dont need raytracing

lone pond
#

How much extra do u guys think the AIB cards are gonna be? And extra 50? USD?

clear frigate
#

Pretty quiet this morning

steel smelt
#

Any of you use a website or something to alert you as to when an item is in stock?

fringe mural
#

yup pretty quiet, people lost faith 😦

#

If it is difficult for you guys, imagine for people like me who live in Central America and can only buy in places that ship to PoBoxes so that they can send me to my country. above the MSRP I have to add shipping costs and taxes. and even after that is cheaper than buying locally... sad but true. still aiming for any 6800 xt.

fringe mural
burnt parcel
#

Its Showtime

topaz furnace
#

Which aib are you guys shooting for?

clear frigate
#

Msi or sapphire

#

or anything really

#

gpu is the last thing I need

fringe mural
#

asus rog if possible

topaz furnace
#

Idk about asus or msi, heard that they just slap on the cooler they used for NV 3000

fringe mural
#

for the asus rog 6800 plane yes

#

same as 3080 cooler

topaz furnace
#

Ye

clear frigate
#

oh then msi would be nice fits my build colors nicely

topaz furnace
#

Idk man I wanted a 6800xt and tried to get the reference last week

#

But I'm undecideds

#

6800xt or 3080

#

Bc amd is competitive out of the box with the 3080 (also when the 3080 is out of the box)

fringe mural
#

I think both are really good options, just take the one that appears first

clear frigate
#

Yeah

topaz furnace
#

But once you turn on ddls and ray tracing Nvidia looks better even when amd was smart access mem and rage mode

#

Dlss*

clear frigate
#

Thats if you want ray tracing

fringe mural
#

yea, positive for nvidia is dlss (some people call it cheat) i just care that it means some more fps

topaz furnace
#

Is ray tracing something the sacrifices fps?

fringe mural
#

yup

topaz furnace
#

Cuz it looks insane but I like fps

#

Idk how often I'd use it

#

How much less fps would u get?

fringe mural
#

it has a lot more cost of fps on amd than nvidia

#

actually depends on the game

topaz furnace
#

Oh

fringe mural
#

could be from 5% to 25% more less

topaz furnace
#

Oh shoot

fringe mural
#

Im ok with fake reflections and shadows hahahahaha

terse bloom
#

From what I can tell, ray tracing has to do with reflective surfaces, so I suppose it depends on how many reflective surfaces are in game?

topaz furnace
#

Well amd does have ray tracing

#

Not as good but

fringe mural
#

I prefer high resolutions and fps

topaz furnace
#

Ye

clear frigate
#

C'mon lady luck favor me today

topaz furnace
#

Idk i think Nvidia still has a slight lead with dlss but idk amd has smart access mem and rage mode

I'll actually just buy a 1660 and use it til I can get any new card and sell it to my friend afterwards

#

Honestly, I never found confirmation that they were gonna release today or what time.

topaz furnace
#

well it was today

#

and the last releases were at 9am est

hushed stirrup
#

Just asking for opinion. Would you rather have a RTX3070 or AMD 6800XT?

clear frigate
#

9am est was when the aib cards restriction was lifted

terse bloom
#

RX6800XT

lone pond
terse bloom
#

But I'd rather have the 3080 to be honest

topaz furnace
#

but the 3070 is cheaper

quaint adder
#

3070 and 6800 xt are in different tiers of gpu

terse bloom
#

What Kuma said

#

RX6800XT is comparable, literally comparable, to RTX 3080

#

There are videos of the 2 cards competing for FPS in multiple games.

hushed stirrup
#

So, if 3080 vs 6800XT. What would be your choice?

steel smelt
#

I'm just waiting for the 3070 ti. I was going to get the 6800 to sync with my 5600x, but you get next to nothing out of the memory sync.

terse bloom
#

6800 or 6800XT?

high magnet
#

Did anyone manage to get anything?

topaz furnace
topaz furnace
#

gonneee

hushed stirrup
#

To be frank, I don't have much money for S tier graphic card. 3070 is probably what I could muster now.

terse bloom
#

But again, I'd still rather get the nvidia card, even if it is $50 more.

lone pond
#

nope still in stock

#

nope now gone

topaz furnace
#

did u get?

terse bloom
#

Not S tier. A tier.

#

S tier would be 3090 and 6900XT level

#

A tier is 3080 and 6800XT level

#

3070 would be consider B tier. Good, but more budget friendly

hushed stirrup
#

Hahaha... only 2 is S tier... only 2 at A-tier πŸ˜„ that is steep

Kuma#2606 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

$900 for an ASUS card...

fking newegg needs exact filters to see new cards since searching 6800 xt STILL only sees reference cards

you have to go to the category and filter series 6000

I'm a just go to canada computers and sy what I want and call me when you get it

why is the tuf more than the strix?

man if the tuf is more expensive than the air cooled strix

the only reasonably priced one I would get is the sapphire 6800xt

man we couldn't get one because by the time the aibs showed up (you legit had to filter to find them) they were gone

tbh i think they were out of stock right when they were listed

yea they don't really have many measures to prevent bots

there was never any stock to begin with or something because i heard xfx orders were getting voided

The prices of all of these aibs for 6800xt

I think these partners and or newegg are just taking the piss

I think 3080 aib would be better

The reference should be the same as other reference prices

The amd reference would be fine not that much better than aibs

uneven portal

It would be great if they released more cards with a haha j/k price of MSRP

Lmfao price jumped to like $1500usd for some of the cards

uneven portal
#

Yeah I'll let everyone else beat each other up for the cards, I'll exercise patience

#

I was a bit stunned when I saw on newegg 1300$ CAD for that STRIX 6800XT

clear frigate
#

Well time to pray I won one of the giveaways for a 30 series cards I've entered

uneven portal
#

Good luck man

#

Hope you get it

#

Save you this headache

topaz furnace
#

I meant that the aibs for the 6800xt probably aren't too much better than the reference

sweet scaffold
#

$AMD is actually up $2

uneven portal
#

Yeah that means 2k in my pocket

sweet scaffold
#

sheesh haha

uneven portal
#

I'm holding for a break of new highs

#

And possibly a break over 100$

#

STONKS

sweet scaffold
#

almost $2.50

uneven portal
#

It's probably going to come back down

#

It's been rocketing at the open lately

#

And then coming back down to around 85

#

That means someone is buying big at 85

#

And others are selling big over 85

#

I'm waiting for the epyc launch

#

That's 5.7 million shares of volume so far

#

So I just watched 493 000 000$ fly around in 13 minutes

#

yay 2.5k lol

shy lava
#

ok im heading to bed this launch was a fail and was overpriced like crazy

uneven portal
#

Getting close to 88 now

#

I wasn't sure if the XFX Merc being 750 was true, turned out to be 799 phaWesker

uneven portal
#

Then I'm even more glad I got a 1000w psu

#

I might have to hire an electrician to add another circuit to my office though

ripe ivy
#

I guess the AIBs figured if it was hard to get Nvidia cards, they might as well charge the premium to make as much profit as they could

uneven portal
#

I'm a bit flustered

eternal locust
#

@ripe ivy when a card is bought overclocked does it automatically run like that or are features manually set by the user?

ripe ivy
#

Yes it's called a "factory overclock"

#

The base spec essentially becomes those values

eternal locust
#

nice less work for me

ripe ivy
#

Well it's not like it's the same level that you can potentially max the card out at really

eternal locust
#

So you're suggesting you could further clock it even if it's an OC model

ripe ivy
#

Well yeah, a factory overclock is very conservative. They need to mass produce them after all, so they hit a minimum threshold that they can 100% have stable for every single card

#

It's bonus performance out of the box though, so it's nice if you don't want to tweak and overclock yourself.

eternal locust
#

Nice

#

Should I get the 2070 rn

#

Or just wait for the 3070

#

I can't upgrade the pc in 4 years fyi

worn gazelle
#

What res

clear frigate
#

I have a 1440p monitor since I doesn't seem like I'll be getting a new gpu at the moment, what's a good option that can handle that resolution

ripe ivy
#

Most of the cards around 300+ will do 1440p fine. It's a matter of FPS targets at that point though, like if you want 100FPS average in all the recent AAA games you're gonna want a card closer to 400 - 500. Otherwise like a 2060 or 5600XT will work well for at least a minimum of 60fps 1440 high I think

#

Though I will admit it won't be like that forever, the 6gb Vram buffer is just meeting the minimum for 1440, so if it's a temp card then it's fine.

shadow horizon
worn gazelle
#

You will get better life out of a 3080 if you can extend budget

#

@shadow horizon

shadow horizon
#

Lol, I'm already over budget by 300$

#

So I can only afford 3070 or 2070

worn gazelle
#

3070 will live longer better

livid summit

Thanks

#

Or if you guys know of any good 5700xt that’s like $410 or less

eternal locust
#

@livid summit I would say the Gigabyte 5700XT OC cuz that's what I just got but it's kinda sold out now on newegg maybe could find it on sale elsewhere for 380ish

wide mesa
#

Whats a good Graphic card i can buy my range is 100-270

livid summit

Dang it’s sold out everywhere

hollow zephyr

Thanks

eternal locust

You'd probably be happy with it

The one I know to avoid is the MSI Mech OC

livid summit
#

Yes

eternal locust
#

The Asus TUF gaming one isn't so good either

livid summit
#

That is a bad one

daring cradle
#

Yes correct

hollow zephyr

#

@livid summit

livid summit
#

Wait not which one?

hollow zephyr
#

So do I get the one I sent or is there a different one

hollow zephyr

livid summit
#

The one I sent is still available

eternal locust
#

@hollow zephyr you talking about the Taichi model?

#

That one might be even better and might have a rebate on newegg last I remember

hollow zephyr
#

its not available lmao

eternal locust
#

Damn

hollow zephyr
#

oh @eternal locust the one you're talking about is lmaio

#

@livid summit look at it

Taichi

hollow zephyr

@wide mesa it was at one opoint

#

*point

livid summit
#

It’s out of stock

wide mesa
#

So should i get one or no?

eternal locust
#

@wide mesa I wouldn't

#

The 1650 is kinda mediocre

wide mesa
#

So 1660?

eternal locust
#

189 prolly isn't a bad price but I'd go for something a bit nicer

#

A 1660 is better I don't know what your price range is tho

wide mesa
#

You got any because im kinda new to all this and all im missing is my Graphic card

livid summit
#

Any other 5700xt that is good that I should try to buy?

#

That’s not to expensive

hollow zephyr
#

all the 1660 models are sold out lmao

wide mesa
#

100-270

hollow zephyr
#

@livid summit i jus said it'll be back tomorrow with that newegg deal they're having lmao

livid summit
eternal locust
#

I'd go for a higher watt psu

hollow zephyr
#

^^

livid summit
#

And ima just stick with the 5700xt even when the 3060ti comes out

eternal locust
#

Believe the 5700xt is recommended at least a 600w

hollow zephyr
#

^^

#

i have a 650W

livid summit
#

Ok

eternal locust
#

Im rockin with a 750 so I have headroom for bigger upgrades in the future

hollow zephyr
#

why you need a 3700x for NYEHE

livid summit
#

Ima a streamer

#

And video editor

hollow zephyr
#

mm

#

seems legit

eternal locust
#

Fair enough is not a bad deal rn

hollow zephyr

viral elbow

a bit too much of price for what you're getting

lone pond

you could probably find a 5600xt for that price

hollow zephyr
#

try and find a 8gb

#

lmao huh

viral elbow
#

and it's 4GB you're flirting with rx580 performance

hollow zephyr

thats cap

#

aint no cap you can find a 5600xt for that price

idk you can find some

look on ebay for one

livid summit
uneven flare

is 290 for a 2060 ko ultra a good price

livid summit
#

Do I go for it

wide mesa
#

If the price 189 for it good?

#

Its alos 8gb

viral elbow
#

didn't newegg have the rx5700xt for 380

hollow zephyr
#

stooopp

wide mesa
#

189$ is that good for the price

hollow zephyr
#

dont buy any of those cards new

viral elbow
#

da_heck 180 for rx570 that's robbery

hollow zephyr
#

@uneven flare yes

hollow zephyr
#

its an okay deal

viral elbow
#

you could buy a 580 for around $100 on facebook

wide mesa
#

Then what card should i get

hollow zephyr
#

we just said look on used sites lmao

#

if thats the card you want

limpid latch
#

offerup, facebook market place, ebay

wide mesa
#

Its not what i want im just looking for graphic cards that are good that i can buy

viral elbow
#

notstonks do you guys plan on eventually getting the new gpu? if not then pull the trigger i guess idk, your need might differ than mine i can't project my situation on you

#

for me i just gave up on getting the new cards and say f it just bought an rx5700xt

#

worst case scenario i can just give it to someone in the family

lone pond
#

if i cant by dec 1 then i might

#

but for now im still looking for a new gpu

viral elbow
#

so you need a gpu to hold onto is that what i'm getting

lone pond
#

wdym by that

#

like a backup plan?

viral elbow
#

you could interpret it as a blackup plan, also i meant by if you need a placeholder card until you get the new ones

lone pond
#

ig so

livid summit
#

I’m looking for a new gpu for max $420 hoping

lone pond
#

but im not getting one until i defintely know i wont be able to get one soon

viral elbow
#

like some people are getting gtx 1080 so they can play cyberpunk until the new cards are available

lone pond
#

my backup would probably be a 2070 super

viral elbow
#

that makes sense

lone pond
#

or 5700xt

viral elbow
#

evga b stock have some used gpu on sale every wednesday 3:00am EST if you're into that

livid summit
#

I can’t find 5700xt anywhere

#

i might look at evga then

#

3 am est?

also only get it with free shipping, evga shipping is expensive

it looks solid, but i haven't seen too many reviews and things from zotac to suggest it

viral elbow
#

GTX 1660 Super MSRP is $229

#

Oh

#

i mean, if you're in the US, black friday and cyber monday is around the corner

wide mesa
#

I am and true

#

So should i buy it on black friday?

lone pond
#

theres this from evga

viral elbow
#

If you see a good deal for what you need and you really need it i guess so

livid summit
#

Is this a good one?

viral elbow
#

other than that it's a really awkward time to buy gpu, since everything last gen will be devalued in a few months

livid summit
#

It’ll be in stock December 2 and I don’t really care when it comes as long as I get it

#

Wait so is it a good gpu?

viral elbow
#

do not buy the ASUS TUF gaming model 5700xt

#

it's a hot boy

livid summit
#

Oh

zinc wraith
#

Yes it is a good gpu

livid summit
#

Nvm

#

How about a pulse rx 5700xt

viral elbow
#

sapphire pulse and nitro are okay

livid summit
viral elbow
#

but just wait for it to go on sale

livid summit
#

Is $410 to expensive for it?

that one looks kinda different and odd, with only 10 reviews

you should wait a little bit

I really can't recommend them right now with that price

#

The graphic card i sent you or him?

and like presley said unless you find it at a great deal

#

the zotac 1660

#

it's also hard for me to recommend a 1660 in general

clear frigate
#

Why

lone pond
#

i would wait for like at least 17% off, or like 20 dollars for a $230 gpu

wide mesa
#

It is 230

lone pond
#

ik but im saying wait till its like $200 or lower

wide mesa
#

Oh alright

viral elbow
#

they're decent cards I just find it hard for myself to buy them now, just my opinion

clear frigate
#

Ah

viral elbow
#

I'll be gone for a bit, you guys good luck and have fun

lone pond
#

if you're keeping it for a long time, then i'd say invest in a more expensive card, but if you're waiting to buy the newer cards and just want something to hold the new one's place so you can game, go on ebay and find like a 1070 or something than can shoot out frames at a solid 50-60 fps at 1080p. 1060 or 1070 is fine for that

wide mesa
#

Do you think i should get it when its on sale and then when i have it for a bit i should get new one ?

lone pond
#

well how fast do you need it by

wide mesa
#

Well the graphic card is my last item i need so

lone pond
#

what else do you have in the system

wide mesa
#

Ryzen 5 2600, 512 SSD, MATX, Gigabyte B450M DS3H Mother board 16GB of ram and a power supply \

#

And now i only need a graphic card

#

I had a graphic card in my list but the price went so high

lone pond
#

so then this card you buy would be for a while right?

wide mesa
#

Yea

#

Like by next year im getting a better one

lone pond
#

so then id buy a cheap 1070 from ebay, somethign cheap that hits frames, if this is only a year

livid summit
#

$420 on Newegg

steel smelt
#

If you're wanting to get a better one next year I echo what @lone pond said. Just buy a card on eBay to hold you over

@daring cradle i do understand that, but in general i trust them as a whole and i dont think ive seen any bad reviews for that product

Hey, my 5 year old gpu (r9 290X) recently started going insane after about 2 hours of being turned on. The fan starts making an insane amount of noice, I have checked temperatures and those weren’t high. Does anyone maybe know what is causing this issue or a solution? Or is it just too old?

Actually MSI scalped their own GPUs

All I can find about this problem is from 2015 and people resolved it with drivers but that didnt change anything for me

tiny oracle

@signal hill what partner card do you have?

livid summit

The reviews that I’ve seen for the gaming x says it’s good

Uhh the sapphire one with 4gb dont know the name xD I can look it up if you want me to

the name would be helpful

You need to update that card man

geez 290X ? lol

nvm can’t help you lmao

most partner cards for the 290x have special drivers where you can adjust fan speed

you can try replacing it

I haven’t done anything to change fan speed

try replacing the fan i guess

What are you doing with this PC ?

have you checked your drivers?

@crimson dagger a 2070

My father thinks it might be dust causing it to heat up so the fan starts going insane but the temps dont go above 73 C

signal hill
lone pond
#

IT stopped spinning ?

signal hill
lone pond
#

Most likely either A. dust/dirt B. bearing C

#

C. could genuinely be time to replace the card but

#

its most likely a fan blow out if thats just NOT working anymore

signal hill
#

My fan didnt stop spinning it starts spinning really fast

tiny oracle
#

you can try taking apart the card and cleaning it

lone pond
#

It will probably move if you touch it but not work or function properly so

#

it reaches max RPM ?

#

thats kind of weird

tiny oracle

i mean it’s a blower

I dunno buddy

Rip the PC apart clean it learn it and BECOME 1 WITH IT πŸ˜„

if your cpu usage is way more than your gpu, its probably your cpu, but its different for everything. video editing is cpu based and gaming is gpu based

#

so its common for more usage from your cpu while editing

Well if you are slower that the 2x the robots than items in stock how could you be quicker.

The 1080 to 3070 would be a yuge upgrade right? Even if running a 6700k. Just wanting to enjoy cyber punk
