graphics-cards

[rigid crag]

yes its the same games but ig ill get an exhaust in there soon

[arctic phoenix]

couldnt u try to make the rad fans exhaust?

[rigid crag]

Not easily

I would have to dissasemble the whole aio

[arctic phoenix]

any reason u wanted 6 intake in the first place lol

[rigid crag]

Because I figured it was better than pushing already hot air through my radiator

[arctic phoenix]

welp then u are pushing hot air into your gpu and other components

[rigid crag]

ya idk

I can up my gpu fan curve a lil too and see if that helps

[arctic phoenix]

i guess

but idk 6 intake doesnt really sounds good

[rigid crag]

welp, im not keeping this aio anyway

it came broken, refer to my pfp :(

[arctic phoenix]

sadge

[ripe ivy]

It came cracked?

[rigid crag]

sadly yes

[arctic phoenix]

welp, might wanna try out using them as exhaust

[rigid crag]

Too much effort for something im returning in 2 days

just gotta finish finals with it and then its going back

wait a minute

I might be dumb

did I say the aio was intake?

[arctic phoenix]

yea lol

[rigid crag]

Because its exhaust lmao

[arctic phoenix]

^

[rigid crag]

my b I can't believe I just did that

oml

im tired

[arctic phoenix]

oh LOL idk why ur gpu temps are so high then

[rigid crag]

LOL

cpu temps are aight tho 😄

[arctic phoenix]

5800x pog

[rigid crag]

yep

[cursive canopy]

why is it going back in 2 days?? if it is.. why worry about it? lol

[rigid crag]

its going back because it came broken. I was just more curious about the gpu temps, like what caused the increase lol

[cursive canopy]

ahhh ok... good to be curious so you know a bit next computer you get.. hopefully nothing broken

you bought pre-built?

[rigid crag]

No lol. I was just upgrading the cpu and cooler from my old R5 3600 build

[cursive canopy]

ahhhh ok...

[waxen grove]

Is there any word on when the new AMD and Nvidia cards will be back in stock?

[hexed forge]

follow newegg on twitter and keep an eye out. I get notifications when they have em back in stock

[prime axle]

Good luck getting one. Been trying ever since they came out and man they get snatched up so fast. Can’t even get one added to my cart

[cursive canopy]

Hover over the add to cart... And spam F5... It worked for me... Be sure to spam click on mouse too

[hollow zephyr]

F5 is to refresh?

[faint kindle]

Yup

[fathom slate]

well then you have to speedrun checkout

[frosty basin]

Is it worth buying sapphire rx 5700 xt nitro+ BE for 450 euro ?

Or should i wait to see if the price will go down in 2021

[fathom slate]

what's its launch price

I think you sould wait

that's almost 150 euro markup

not really worth it

i'd probably wait

boxing day may or may not make it better

[prime axle]

@cursive canopy you spamming both F5 and clicking at same time I take it?

I was trying the app the last restock but even that was bogged down and wouldn’t load

[cursive canopy]

Just about. Had to be quick

[prime axle]

Cool I’ll keep trying

[cursive canopy]

I did it so much... I had one in cart a few seconds and I still did it lol

Then had to rush to email to get the verification code to finalize the purchase

[shy crest]

anyone here have rtx 3080 XC ultra?>

[prime axle]

Haha that was a close one then

[shy crest]

anyone here have a RTX 3080 XC3 ultra? i have a question about my fan 1 and fan 2

[coarse spindle]

Pfft I wish

[shy crest]

i need help on my temp idle at 60

[fathom slate]

clean out dust

idk

[shy crest]

i have a new case linali lancool 2 mesh

so I'm not sure why temp stock a t60

[fathom slate]

of what

gpu?

[shy crest]

gpu temp at 60

[fathom slate]

oh is this the 3080

[shy crest]

yes

[fathom slate]

so prob new then

idk

huh

[shy crest]

and clock speed is stock at 1755 mhz

[fathom slate]

what's it like under load?

do the fans spin?

is the case maybe not suffocating it?

[shy crest]

3 fans spins but only 1 is kinda like the PWM

is the gpu clock supposed to change?

[fathom slate]

wait so they spin full tilt?

yes the clock speed will change as you run a load

[shy crest]

is that 1755 mhz should change?

[fathom slate]

oh no there it probably wont

that's the base clock

[shy crest]

ahh

the temp is stock at 60 when idle

and when i play games still at 60-65

idk why it won't go below 60 when idle

[fathom slate]

does the number change?

or is it stuck at 60

[shy crest]

yes

it changed to 59-60

when idle

but isn't suppose to be like 30-40

[fathom slate]

yea

idk I don't really have a PC im just wasting your time at this point

sorry cant really help

[shy crest]

ok

[wintry imp]

idle is 60-65

wtf

doesnt that mean its being used?

[frosty rover]

@shy crest I'm pretty sure the fan doesn't kick on until it hits 65 so I'm pretty sure it's just passively cooling while idling so it's not insane to think it would get up to 60 with regular use.

I could be wrong but I know the 900s used to do that.

[lone pond]

Is there a bot that can send me a message for when the 6800xt is back in stock

Last part b4 i can finish my pc

[coarse spindle]

You can sign up for B&h photovideo emails

But other than that IDK

[lone pond]

Okill look into it more thx tho

[fathom bear]

Nowinstock

https://www.nowinstock.net/computers/videocards/amd/rx6800xt/

You still won’t get it that way, but I wish you luck regardless

[signal hill]

Uhh my new gpu is supossed to have a clock frequentie of 1.62Ghz but it has 1,78 Ghz and I haven’t done anything like overclocking, am I just lucky?

[gritty notch]

turbo

[signal hill]

Yeah those are all turbo speeds

Its an rx 5600 xt without the special bios

[umbral jackal]

Are you excited about the 6700xt?

It will be the card that wipes the floor with the 3060ti!

[gritty notch]

amd

[signal hill]

Not really I just bought a new gpu days ago xD

[umbral jackal]

Oh.

[gritty notch]

nvidia like

always wipes amd tbh

[umbral jackal]

Nvidia, morelike LOSERvidia

[signal hill]

*used to

[gritty notch]

at everything, amd only ever gets a moderate win at gaming

enjoy video encode on ur amd card tho

[umbral jackal]

Oh yeah? Name one Nvidia CPU that beats any ryzen 5000.

[gritty notch]

lmao

[umbral jackal]

check mate!

[gritty notch]

darn u got me

nvidia makes some arm cpus so i can see it happening sooner or later

amd just cant make good gpus tbh

[umbral jackal]

I think it's more like they can't make good drivers.

[gritty notch]

nah

they lack things

hw level

like i said, if you want to do anything besides game or mine crypto, amd is hot garbage

[signal hill]

M1

It wins in geekbench xD

[gritty notch]

that too

lol

[signal hill]

Nvidia bought arm so its their cpu

[gritty notch]

[umbral jackal]

Honestly. I'm not sure if I should try and upgrade from a 1660 to a 3080

[gritty notch]

fr tho amdrones hate hearing that their team's gpus are disgusting for everything but gaming

and still get beat in gaming most of the time

i hope they get better cause i dont like nvidia

[umbral jackal]

I think they'll get better.

[gritty notch]

doubt it tbh

[umbral jackal]

They've made great generational leaps in CPU hardware, so maybe they'll make a breakthrough for graphics cards.

[gritty notch]

amd is the console gpu maker lol

nah i think nvidia will always be on top tbh

[umbral jackal]

True.

[gritty notch]

i just hope amd gets even close to viable

[umbral jackal]

Nvidia has some solid development.

Nvidia makes better GPUs than intel!

[coarse spindle]

Nvidia has those sweet SI deals

[gritty notch]

depend what the gpu is for lol

@coarse spindle so did intel

[coarse spindle]

They just have more throw money

[umbral jackal]

I am wondering if I should pick up a quadro 4000.

[gritty notch]

the difference is nvidia is objectively better in almost every way

if u do hmu

i sell quadros

[coarse spindle]

Really?

How?

[gritty notch]

how do i sell quadros?

[coarse spindle]

Well how do you have them

[gritty notch]

i have a quadro 6000 for 3k

[coarse spindle]

Thats a good deal

[umbral jackal]

Oh dang.

[gritty notch]

new too

[coarse spindle]

But how did you achieve them in the first place

[gritty notch]

i have good suppliers and i discount heavily to people i like

[coarse spindle]

Hmm... Note to self be a Samsung and Nvidia fanboy

[gritty notch]

if its going to a good home then i dont mind losing some profit

lmao i hate nvidia

and i dont like samsung either

[coarse spindle]

Good on u mate

What do u use them for?

[gritty notch]

use what for?

[coarse spindle]

The quadros

[gritty notch]

i dont use them

[coarse spindle]

Oh ok i got u then

[gritty notch]

used an 8000 for like a week to transcode my library

never touched them again tbh

theyre nice but i dont wanna spend thousands on one to keep

[coarse spindle]

Wow. Did you hear they retired the quadro name?

[gritty notch]

yep

[coarse spindle]

That kinda sucks

[gritty notch]

sucks cause i rly like the name

[coarse spindle]

Yeah

[umbral jackal]

I honestly don't know what I'd use a quadro for tbh

[gritty notch]

reggie lmk though

if u swing the other way i have radeon pro cards too

got a wx9100 thats dying to go to a nice home

[umbral jackal]

Yeah, I'll definitely hyu.

[gritty notch]

1.3k

[umbral jackal]

I'm not looking right now, but definitely in the future it'd be sweet.

[gritty notch]

for sure

i also do laptops :))

thinkpads, precisions, clevo chassis

[umbral jackal]

I gotta land a sweet, more than minimum wage, job.

[gritty notch]

lmao felt that one

[umbral jackal]

Which shouldn't be too bad when I finish finals this week.

[gritty notch]

i like to only deal in the good stuff so anything i sell is guaranteed quality :))

[coarse spindle]

I do eWaste resale so I have some stuff

Dumpster diveing is fun!

[gritty notch]

lol

ever find old servers?

[coarse spindle]

Yeah

[umbral jackal]

I like to consider myself a facebook marketplace goblin.

[gritty notch]

if you find any r720s let me know ok?

ill give you great deals if you do the same to me uwu

[coarse spindle]

Found a super old pent. 4 xeon server once

[gritty notch]

lmao niiiiice

anything like a 910 or a 720 lmk

[coarse spindle]

Actually have found some power edges

Pretty new too

[gritty notch]

keep them?

[coarse spindle]

I think a xeon e3

[gritty notch]

oooo

[coarse spindle]

Kept the CPUs sold everything else

[gritty notch]

unfortunate lol

servers are fun but wow

[coarse spindle]

The CPUs are not worth much

[gritty notch]

shipping them

not so much

cpus are dirt

[coarse spindle]

Tell me about it

[gritty notch]

can get a 6 core sandy bridge for like $15 nowadays

[coarse spindle]

I know

But the MOBOs are kinda stupid

[gritty notch]

wdym lol

the china x99 boards are fun as hell

[coarse spindle]

Really

[gritty notch]

yeah lol

great to make like

[coarse spindle]

I have had a lot of problems w xeon board shiz

[gritty notch]

INTEL 6 CORE (like i7) gaming pc 16gb ram SSD FAST

[coarse spindle]

Yes

[gritty notch]

they sell

$50 board, $15 cpu, $20 ssd, $10 ram, $30 psu, and $50 gpu and selling for 650+

[coarse spindle]

Really smart idea

Its the low clock speeds on xeons tho

[gritty notch]

i miss my 470s

got a BUNCH from some miner

$30 a pop

[coarse spindle]

DAMN

Nice

[gritty notch]

like 30+ or so

[coarse spindle]

Best i got from the dump was a 970ti

[gritty notch]

i still have one

[coarse spindle]

Yeah old Radeons are oddly inexpensive

[gritty notch]

not anymore

[coarse spindle]

Haha

[shy crest]

Not sure why it’s 60 at ifle

[coarse spindle]

Thats high

[gritty notch]

inb4 paste is dust

[waxen aspen]

any one know how to get my hands on a 3060ti or a 3070 without paying over 450-500

[gritty notch]

its called wait

[waxen aspen]

do you know when it wil restock?

[gritty notch]

if i did id be a scalper too

use a site thatll tell you

[coarse spindle]

The darkside...

[waxen aspen]

any other graphics to substitute for it maybe

[gritty notch]

no

[coarse spindle]

Not for a good value these days at least

[knotty iris]

Yikes

Imagine openly being a scalper

[gritty notch]

lmao

[coarse spindle]

Does anyone know what games are like on a RTX4000

Quadro

Coming from a k5000

[gritty notch]

theyre alright

but the rtx6000 is the one u should get

[coarse spindle]

Haha

Shameless plug time?

[gritty notch]

u know it

fr get it i wanna sell it u want a good price

[umbral jackal]

oh goodness.

[gritty notch]

owo

[signal hill]

Uhh why are some of the ports on my gpu too high? I can't get a cable in them

[kind wigeon]

don't buy it, but you'll be decent at games... looking at 60 fps high on taxing games

[shy crest]

Anyone here have the XC3 RTX 3080 ultra? I have a question about the core clock stuck at 1755mhz at idle

[gusty cave]

1650 super or 5500xt

[lone pond]

5500 XT

[lone pond]

depends on what card you can find for the cheapest

[lone pond]

seems like same perf as 2060 or 2060s...plus are you going to use it for work/3d render?

[gritty notch]

needs 6000 anyways

[hard wren]

a6000 its all blinged out now

so developers can show off their cards now too 😉

[gritty notch]

ikr

looks cute

rtx 6000 is the best out there tho

[hard wren]

dont think a6000 is released yet

[gritty notch]

yea

quadro rtx 6000 is tho

def the one thwy should buy

[hard wren]

look how ugly it is though

[gritty notch]

yea but i have one for sale so its the best gpu out there

duh

[hard wren]

lol

[gritty notch]

only 3k

[hard wren]

I think price to performance if you could find them 2 3090's would be better even for rendering lol

[gritty notch]

no

6000

[hard wren]

you would have 48g with the 2 3090s to be fair

[gritty notch]

if only it split all nicely like that

[hard wren]

its better for workstation tasks and like impossible for gaming lol

[gritty notch]

its okayish

my old 8000 kicked ass at video encode lol

[hard wren]

yeah real advantage would come when you upgrade and can sell the 2 3090s lol

[gritty notch]

i sell plenty workstation/enterprise gpu

some homelabbers eat it up

[hard wren]

a8000 rumored to have 96gb vram...

but no specs released just for the a6000

but if it does you could have 192gb of vram with nvlink

[waxen iron]

wtf would you even do with 192GB

[tender mulch]

Render things

movies, 3D animations, etc

[hard wren]

I mean I couldnt do anything with it but people could lol

[lone pond]

the same reason people need 1tb of ram

some people

[rose adder]

3090's would need titan drivers

for some workstation applications the titan / quadro drivers actually make a difference

[shadow prairie]

why is the evga queue so long i pressed the notify button for 3 cards on the 9/22/2020 still no card in my hands

[inland hound]

yo did someone @ me

why do I have a notification from here

[winged merlin]

Idk

[inland hound]

that sucks

[errant inlet]

I just hate that they announce combos on twitter but then other stuff gets stocked sorta randomly

[inland hound]

yeah

slowly descending into Entropy

[inland hound]

its their obligation to announce stuff on Twitter. If they could, they would just not so that the twitter employees could get cards themselves.

but no one can get cards

not even Newegg employees

[errant inlet]

Yeah its wild, hoping i can get a strix 3080 tonight though

[inland hound]

hopefully

Imma wait until I can get a 3090

too worth it not to

plus soooooo much useless VRAM

[crude dust]

Not true it’s easy to get cards lining up at a local Microcenter.

[inland hound]

for days

[crude dust]

Not if your lucky

All for me or friends

[winged merlin]

What the hell do you need so many for

Got damn

[crude dust]

Bc I have a store here I’ve gone to wait to hook many people up

[errant inlet]

Yeah im tempted to try that but with my luck i wont get one

Theres a store near me in duluth ga

[crude dust]

Find the unofficial discord and you can easily figure out when is best to go.

[errant inlet]

I might, im going saturday morning so hopefully they have the strix 3080 that day

[winged merlin]

My microcenter near me has stock like

Every 3 days

[crude dust]

It’s worth it but have to be there before open typically

[winged merlin]

I just... don’t need the cards

So I haven’t gone yet

[crude dust]

Makes sense. I did a new build so “needed” a card and then people asked me to go for them so I did. Was fun meeting the people in line lol.

[winged merlin]

Ahh yeah... I just can’t justify replacing my 2080tis yet

It’s not worth it 😂

[errant inlet]

I built a new pc in may, but decided to keep my 1070 since i assumed i could get a card at launch

[crude dust]

Ah yeah I had a 1660 in case I couldn’t get a card but got my 5900 and 3090 ftw on same day

[errant inlet]

Damn lucky, i went with 10th gen intel since i didnt know at the time amd was gonna bring out those awesome cpus

[lone pond]

atleast you didn't participate on the panic sell when the rtx 30xx was announced lol

[winged merlin]

I got them for free

I can’t... like can’t justify it

It makes no sense

@errant inlet what 10th gen chip you got?

[errant inlet]

I got the i7 10700k

[winged merlin]

Ah okay nice nice

That’s what I had

Solid cpu

Gets to 5.3 all core for me

Now it just... sits in my room

Without a box

Cause I don’t have one for it

[errant inlet]

Oh damn, i need to oc mine at some point

[winged merlin]

And that pains me to leave it sitting

[errant inlet]

Whaa you dont use it?

I've got an 240 mm aio for mine, so i need to oc a little at some point. I'm sure it would run fine if i did

[lone pond]

meanwhile i need to OC my 750 ti at some point

[lone pond]

nice.

[errant inlet]

geez a 750 ti? I thought i was outdated with my 1070 founders

[lone pond]

lol

atleast 750 ti has been my biggest upgrade since 7-8 years

1070 founders isn't outdated tho
it's nice a card

[light widget]

BB restock is the 16th right?

[errant inlet]

The 750 ti still isnt awful, you can play a decent number of pc games on it.

[lone pond]

sometimes you gotta apreciate what you have.

[errant inlet]

I heard it was the 15th

[light widget]

Hmm so tomorrow

[lone pond]

yep, played prey 2017 on it and it was awesome

i am planning to play alien:isolation on it

[errant inlet]

I mostly play cyberpunk and dead by daylight on my 1070.

[lone pond]

i played prey(2017) and few other games aswell
i am planning to give a try on cp2077 at some point though

[errant inlet]

I struggle running that game but i play in 1440p

[lone pond]

oof

i am going to play on 720p or lower

the lowest i go is 800x600

[errant inlet]

Hey man good luck on that

[lone pond]

800x600 ain't bad either
in a 768p monitor

[errant inlet]

I wouldnt know tbh. I had a monitor like that on my old laptop

[thin relic]

im going to get my 3070 in like 1 or 2 months

first ill get the i5 10600k

[errant inlet]

I have the 10700k myself, good cpus imo

[thin relic]

right now im using the 1050ti ...

with i5 4440 lmao

[lone pond]

ye
atleast if i get a 20-30 fps cyberpunk, i should be fine.

[errant inlet]

oh oofff my old system was newer than that

[thin relic]

ouch

xd

but im ok i can play nearly everything

[lone pond]

still that i5 ain't bad

[thin relic]

i got the i5 4440 for free so i didnt upgrade xd

[lone pond]

yeah...that cpu might struggle on building games
or with moving objects

[lone pond]

nice.

[errant inlet]

I gave my sister my 6700k pc and im gonna give her my 1070 when i get a new card

[thin relic]

lucky her

[errant inlet]

She's about to turn 13 so she plays games a little more now

[thin relic]

only thing i have laying around is a 950 ti and i5 3470

[errant inlet]

I dont have anything laying around, my last pc was my first one

[south flicker]

I'm still using my 770

Need the card restock

[coarse spindle]

440 over here

[lone pond]

gtx 770?

oof

[south flicker]

yeah

not fun

[thin relic]

oh my imagine jumping from 770 to 3070

[coarse spindle]

The gt440 can still play some games

[south flicker]

yeah

[thin relic]

youll eat you monitor thats how tasty its going to look

[south flicker]

The 3080 is so powerful, I'm probably going to have to upgrade my entire rig.

[lone pond]

yep...atleast better than old igpus

[south flicker]

B/c I'm still using an i7-4770

[thin relic]

i got a 650w power supply here otherwise i would have bought the 3080

so im ok with 3070

i dont need 4k im absolutely fine with 144 hz

[cursive canopy]

the 1050ti has been a good graphics card I have been using... till i got this 3060ti.. but have to get a new PS soon for it to all work 😄 lol

[thin relic]

i bought the dark power something 650w gold

idk if its enough for 3080

[cursive canopy]

i'd go for 850 for a 3080 ...

[coarse spindle]

It will be boarderline

[thin relic]

ok ill pass ima stick to 370 xd

[coarse spindle]

I have a 750 gold with my 3080

[thin relic]

3070

also i5 10600k wont be enough either for 3080 i think

[lone pond]

10600k will be enough for a 3080 lol

[errant inlet]

10600k for a 3080 should be fine

[cursive canopy]

i'd rather go for 9700k or the newer 10700k for it...

[lone pond]

ye, 10700k is like 70$ bucks more

2 extra cores tho

[cursive canopy]

yeah...

[thin relic]

ohh what

[lone pond]

and maybe better OC

[daring tusk]

yeeet

[thin relic]

ill pay the 70 bucks more even if i dont get the 3080

[cursive canopy]

i got a 9700k with a 3060ti, and when it is actually in PC, i'll be happy... till I look at my monitor situation... O.O

[lone pond]

the 10700k is like 358$ USD

[thin relic]

i got euro

[errant inlet]

I paid $429 for that cpu damn

[lone pond]

big oof

[errant inlet]

Yeah and now you can get an i9 for that much]

[cursive canopy]

yeah, i shoulda waited, coulda gotten my CPU for a lot less, but it is what it is

[daring tusk]

y intel tho

[errant inlet]

Oh ur right i'll just buy a 5600x right now on newegg

[daring tusk]

when u can

[errant inlet]

Boi quit flexin in the stock room

[cursive canopy]

i've always been intel. well, remember once I tried AMD...

[errant inlet]

Also i see asus 👀

[lone pond]

10700k is a really good 8 core cpu for it's price rn
5600x begin a good cpu for 300$ and...yeah

[errant inlet]

My whole setup is almost all asus, I just dont go with them for peripherals. I usually go razer for that sorta stuff

[daring tusk]

flexin

[errant inlet]

Unless you got a strix 3080 you cant flex on me

[lone pond]

nice

[daring tusk]

their builds for my friends

im putting together

all ryzens tho

[thin relic]

so i7 10700k for 3080?

[lone pond]

why not lol

well...actually

depends.

[daring tusk]

what resolution

[lone pond]

if you get it for a good price and way less than the new ryzen 50xx
then it's worth.

[thin relic]

144hz

dont need 4k

ill send my 650watt back for an 850

[remote cargo]

anyone have a 3070 tuf they don’t need? I can take it off their hands as long as it’s in working condition lol

[low tide]

any one hav a 1660?

[solemn flicker]

Got a xfx rx 480 8gb :p

[lone pond]

[umbral jackal]

I have a 1060

[thin relic]

nice my shopping cart is 800 euro and thats without the 3080

is the z490 gaming plus good?

[umbral jackal]

Yeah

[rough sluice]

Hey yall. I got my Aorus 3080 xtreme today but just realized my psu only had 2 pcie cables (gigabyte p750gm from a combo deal) and the xtreme has 3 pcie slots. Is it okay to use 2 until i get a better psu that comes with 3?

[cursive canopy]

awesome!!! congo rats!

[shadow prairie]

HOW

[fossil talon]

Got MSI 3080 Suprim confirmed order today. Now to decide between 3080 Gigabyte Vision or 3080 MSI Suprim

[shadow prairie]

HOW

[spice prawn]

it most likely wont boot with only 2 plugs

and no need to yell @shadow prairie

[shadow prairie]

bruh how

in the world are they getting cards

[violet mortar]

bruh I cant even get a 2060

[fossil talon]

Canada- less competition than US

I have 4 RTX 30s GPUs now I guess

[rough sluice]

How do i send pics lol and @shadow prairie i gave in :(

[dusk oasis]

I have 4 RTX 30s GPUs now I guess
@fossil talon tf

[spice prawn]

there is stock coming in, slowly, but there is stock coming in

[fossil talon]

^^^

Yep just need to be patient

[shadow prairie]

@rough sluice you bought it from ebay?

[spice prawn]

@rough sluice you cannot post pictures until you are level 3

[violet mortar]

where should I try and look for graphics cards?

[fossil talon]

My 3080 Gigabyte Vision was on backorder for 2 months before I got confirmed shipment

[rough sluice]

Ah okay. And no off hardware swap subreddit.

[violet mortar]

I've mostly been looking at newegg

[rough sluice]

I dm’d the pic if thats cool

[shadow prairie]

yeah thats cool

[fossil talon]

Newegg is constantly targeted by bots. It's best to go to your local tech branch (Microcentre for US, and Memory Express for Canada)

[shadow prairie]

bruh there isnt one near me

the only thing is best buy

[fossil talon]

That's how I got mine besides the 3060ti FE and 3070 FE which I got on release date of Best Buy

[shadow prairie]

i tried but the thing said please wait then it sold out

[fossil talon]

Yea I saw the US Best Buy fails, I was here when you guys had so many issues

Like Best Buy Canada release was smooth. Everything went as planned

[cursive canopy]

i actually got one from bestbuy... think opening day they just had a lot of them

[fossil talon]

Nice

[shadow prairie]

: ( i just wanna play cyberpunk with good graphics

[lone pond]

lol

[cursive canopy]

i've been using a 1050ti... still will till i get new PS.. thought the one I had would do it.. but ehhh

[shadow prairie]

bruh i have a 970

[cursive canopy]

i had a gtx 550ti before the 1050ti...

[fathom lintel]

bruh where tf do i find a 3070

[waxen iron]

nowhere

[shadow prairie]

yup

[lone pond]

in a store.

[waxen iron]

newegg is botted and full of dumb bundles, best buy crashes, and microcenter has neckbeards camping nightly

[fathom lintel]

i live by where most of the scalpers are, so the stores are sold out too

[shadow prairie]

but i really think they are not making that many 3080s anymore they always have more 3070s and 3060ti then 3080s

[waxen iron]

3080s are binned

plus its a larger die iirc

[fossil talon]

Just wait, supply is still coming

[cursive canopy]

waiting isn't a lot of people's strong points

[fossil talon]

K, by Q1 2021 there's also going to be Ti models coming, if you wait, you can get those instead (just suck up on prices)

[cursive canopy]

if the bots don't get those too 😦

[fossil talon]

If you want, there are servers that developed gpu bots, quite a few people managed to get themselves one

Or you can develop your own bots and fight fire with fire

[winter dagger]

Hopefully by Q2 of 2021 the non-ti cards will be more in stock so that would be the best time to strike

Idk how many people want to go through the hassle of scripting a bot lol

[winter dagger]

Hopefully by Q2 of 2021 the non-ti cards will be more in stock so that would be the best time to strike

[shadow prairie]

Thats a long time

[winter dagger]

Yeah RIP

Nvidia can't get their poop together

[shadow prairie]

Nvidia is to busy sitting on all this scalper money

[winter dagger]

Well they aren't getting it

lol

They get what they asked because the scalpers paid msrp

and now the scalpers are asking twice as much

to resell

and people buy it which is the sad part lol

[fossil talon]

The dumbest thing I saw this week was a guy listing a 2060 for the same price of a 3080

[shadow prairie]

bruh i saw a rtx 3080 picture for 600 dollers

[winter dagger]

Yeah that sounds about right for 2020 tech stuff

[fossil talon]

Their reason "Due to market value and inflation..."

[fossil talon]

The trolls are the best....I personally have fun trolling eBay scalpers

[shadow prairie]

it was funny how many people were watching it

[umbral jackal]

Gotta be vigilant!

They say it is for bots, but don't be fooled!

[fossil talon]

Sees 3080 bidding for 4k, increases it 16k and other people join in to push to 32k

[lone pond]

guys im doing my first build and im going to have all the parts for so long before i have my gpu

[umbral jackal]

GPU market is hurting

[fossil talon]

I was the reverse. I got my GPU, case and MOBO before everything else

[umbral jackal]

I have a 1660, but I want a 3080

[winter dagger]

1660 still solid tho

[fossil talon]

Yep still pretty g

[winter dagger]

I have an RX 590

[lone pond]

i still dont know what gpu im getting if i whould wait for the 30 series to actually be buyable or just get a different one thats actually available

[shadow prairie]

same i have everything but the 3080

[fossil talon]

That's the thing, almost every card even previous gens are out of stock

[umbral jackal]

Yeah, 1660 is a very good card.

I have a 1660, 1650, and a 1060

[lone pond]

my friend just has an external 2060 super for his laptop

[fossil talon]

Nice

[umbral jackal]

I'm wondering if I should sell al 3 and just get a 3070

[shadow prairie]

gotta stay on that 3080

its worth it

[lone pond]

i feel like by the time im actually able to buy a 30 series card im going to be an adult with kids and not be interested in pc building anymore

[fossil talon]

In hand: 3070FE, 3060ti FE, and 1070
Shipping: 3080 Vision, 3080 Suprim

[lone pond]

how

[fossil talon]

Selling at MSRP to my friends: 3060ti FE and maybe the 3070FE

[umbral jackal]

Yeah? I probably should just get the EVGA 3080 then.

[lone pond]

i just want a 3060 ti

[fossil talon]

EVGA 3080 has a order list which is so nice of them

[lone pond]

i dont even care what manufacturer

[dense panther]

same i want an 3060ti

[umbral jackal]

It's mainly a length thing for me. :D

I have 300mm of room

[fossil talon]

Oh I see

[shadow prairie]

im on that list i did it all the way on the 9/22/2020 still no evga card

[lone pond]

sun did you get all your card from newegg?

cards*

[umbral jackal]

I bought a case that fits on the shelf in my desk, but wow. It fits nothing.

[fossil talon]

Man that's unlucky.

[fossil talon]

Nope, all from Memory Express (Microcenter in Canada) or on release dates from Best Buy Canada

[lone pond]

that makes a lot of sense

[fossil talon]

Newegg is too susceptible to bots, I tried on the initial 3080 release and I knew it will be the same for the rest of card releases

[lone pond]

yeah i stopped trying once they only did combo things

[umbral jackal]

So, do I go for a 3070 that I know fits or just go for the evga 3080 and do the order list?

[fossil talon]

The thing is EVGA 3080 is large

[winter dagger]

3070 is still a solid card soo...

[crisp ocean]

What is a good temp for 100% gpu usage at 2000mhz

[fossil talon]

Like even the shroud is wider than usual

[winter dagger]

Yeah he THIICC

[umbral jackal]

Oh dang. I'm just doing 1440p 144hz gaming.

[winter dagger]

78C

[fossil talon]

Are you sure your case has enough clearance?

[crisp ocean]

ok i get 69C max lmaooo

[winter dagger]

Then a 3070 is more than enough

[crisp ocean]

Im gonna do a lot of OCING

[fossil talon]

70°C is my max on my 3070

[winter dagger]

Ok then u good

[crisp ocean]

im gonna do some serious OCING

[winter dagger]

Whatever you do, don't go past 80C

[umbral jackal]

80Canadians is too many!

[fossil talon]

Lowkey to scared to OC GPUs

[winter dagger]

These cards can handle a lot but I think 80 and below is solid

[umbral jackal]

I like to OC cpus and that's it.

[fossil talon]

Lol metric is so much more superior ngl, but I still use imperial now and then

[umbral jackal]

Cpus*?

[crisp ocean]

if im getting 69C max (I average 65-67) with 2000mhz and 100% usage, i could OC a crap ton

[winter dagger]

Yeah I have the hottest freaking card (RX 590) but I OC'd anyways lmao

[ocean meteor]

What graphics card should I buy cause everything Im looking at is oos

[winter dagger]

Don't push the clocks any higher

[umbral jackal]

When in doubt 1660s!

[winter dagger]

leave them alone

and just focus on memory

[crisp ocean]

Bet

[umbral jackal]

Honestly. I throw 1660s at everyone who needs a gpu in this economy.

[ocean meteor]

I just want a 3060 😭

[umbral jackal]

It's solid, still available somewhat, and people also sell used a lot of the time.

[lone pond]

1650s is great
if you find it a good price.

[fossil talon]

Did you OC your R5 for fun yet @crisp ocean, I will OC my R5 soon

[winter dagger]

1660's are good

[umbral jackal]

They are! I love them!

[winter dagger]

I am scared to OC my CPU

[crisp ocean]

Nah I am not

[fossil talon]

Aight bet

[winter dagger]

The super and ti are much better than the base lol

[umbral jackal]

I got an nhu12s to OC a little bit.

I only deal in supers

[winter dagger]

noice

[winter dagger]

Good

[umbral jackal]

Ti and regular aren't real

[winter dagger]

Lmao

[umbral jackal]

They're FAKE! Don't believe the stories!

[winter dagger]

lol

[umbral jackal]

I traded my roommate for a 1650 super

[winter dagger]

lol wut

[umbral jackal]

Merry christmas. :D

[winter dagger]

ah

ok

[umbral jackal]

Now he can play cyberpunk slightly better

[winter dagger]

I have an RX 590

It's a HOT boi

[umbral jackal]

Heck yeah!

Spicy!

[winter dagger]

On par with your 1660

slightly worse

and the 590 usually hits 78C

rip

[umbral jackal]

Ouch

[winter dagger]

Yeah like I said it's a hot boi

It used to run at 81C

So 78C is fine by me

[umbral jackal]

That's a lot of spice

[winter dagger]

Too much lamo

lmao

[umbral jackal]

So funny thing. I realized my memory kit is running at 2133 today :D

[winter dagger]

AMD just made a REALLY hot chip and not only that I have XFX RX 590 FATBOY OC so it's even hotter because XFX can't design a freakin heatsink lol

[icy cove]

where the 3070s at?

[winter dagger]

LOL oof

[winter dagger]

GONE

[icy cove]

lol

[umbral jackal]

I forgot to fix it after reslotting my memory!

[winter dagger]

REDUCED TO ATOMS

[fossil talon]

Time to OC!!

[umbral jackal]

I want that 3k mhz goodness!

[winter dagger]

OC'd my ram after almost killing my PC

Fun times

[umbral jackal]

I only got 3000 cl15

Ooh

[winter dagger]

Ha I beat you

I can run 3000 at cl14

lol

[umbral jackal]

Only problem with my PC atm is I'm missing a psu still.

[winter dagger]

wit

wut

[fossil talon]

Lol

[winter dagger]

how it run?

[umbral jackal]

It don't

[fossil talon]

Are you waiting for boxing day for your PSU

[umbral jackal]

It ded

[winter dagger]

RIP

[umbral jackal]

I'm backordered on newegg :D

But it's been 3 years

who knows when they'll have it in stock!

[winter dagger]

lol yep

[spiral tulip]

The only problem with my PC is that it has intergrated GPU

currently looking for a GPU but everything is sold out.

[winter dagger]

What CPU

[spiral tulip]

Ryzen 5 3400G

[winter dagger]

Oh nice

[spiral tulip]

5

Not 4

[winter dagger]

Radeon Vega 8 graphics are still solid for esports titles

[spiral tulip]

sorry finger slipped aha

[winter dagger]

Lol

Look for an Rx 580

If you are on a budget

Or 1650 Super

Maybe a 1660 if you can afford it

[fluid star]

what u guys think about PNY GeForce RTX 3090 is it reliable brand ?

[winter dagger]

Oof

PNY isn't a relilable brand

[ripe ivy]

[spiral tulip]

I am looking for a 1660

atm

[winter dagger]

Ok nice

[spiral tulip]

I found one on Curry's PC World for a lil over 200

208 to be exact

[winter dagger]

Look at EVGA, Gigabyte, and specific ASUS cards

[spiral tulip]

My build is mainly ASUS

[winter dagger]

And if you are able to get the 3090 in PNY, check the reviews first

@fluid star

[winter dagger]

200 US?

New?

[spiral tulip]

200 UK

and yes

new

Curry's pc world is like

best buy for you

[winter dagger]

Ah ok cool

That's a good price then

[spiral tulip]

Yep

[winter dagger]

What brand

[spiral tulip]

GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1660 6 GB OC Graphics Card

for £208

[fluid star]

ok thank u dude

[winter dagger]

Np

[umbral jackal]

microcenter is my passion

[winter dagger]

Lol

[winter dagger]

Oh nice

[spiral tulip]

Its good, especially with the recent pop up for GPU's where they are sold out everywhere

[winter dagger]

Yep

[umbral jackal]

uhhhh

I mean.

Newegg is my passion!

yep.

[spiral tulip]

and prices have gone up

[winter dagger]

yeep

1660 supers are like 280 US rn

[umbral jackal]

oh

uhhhh

If I get a 3070, I'm selling mine for $150

[winter dagger]

Well yeah because it'll be second hand

A new 1660S goes for like 280-300 now

[umbral jackal]

second hand goes for like $250

[winter dagger]

The Ti's run for 2060 money sometimes

[winter dagger]

That's tru

[umbral jackal]

which is weird.

TIs are just older supers

[winter dagger]

Ti's are better dude

[umbral jackal]

at the 1660 level?

The difference is so small.

[winter dagger]

Yes

The Super is newer but the cost of the Ti remains the same

[umbral jackal]

If you're spending 2060 money on a 1660 ti, just buy the 2060

[winter dagger]

Right

[umbral jackal]

It's why I like the 1660 super so much.

[winter dagger]

But the Ti is so expensive because the sellers don't want to lose money on what they payed for it

[umbral jackal]

It's like a 2% difference for $50 cheaper

[round crown]

5600xt?

[winter dagger]

Yeah

1660s much better

[round crown]

Out perfs both 1660ti and 2060

[winter dagger]

Not the 2060

[round crown]

Pretty sure it does

W/o ray tracing or dlss ofc

[winter dagger]

Yeah

That's why I would go Nvidia

[round crown]

Mhm

[umbral jackal]

if I remember correctly, it is the better gpu for non gaming things.

[winter dagger]

I have an RX 590 and I'm kinda fed up with AMD ngl

[umbral jackal]

but 2060's have higher frame rates.

[round crown]

But w/o regards to ray tracing 5600xt is better

[umbral jackal]

but again, 1660 super OP

[winter dagger]

Yeah

[umbral jackal]

Especially when second hand 1660 supers are so cheap.

[winter dagger]

@round crown https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/compare/GeForce-RTX-2060-vs-Radeon-RX-5600-XT/4037vs4186

See for yourself

2060 is better

[round crown]

Whats that website

[winter dagger]

but I guess it depends

[round crown]

Not reliable

[winter dagger]

I checked Userbench as well btw

https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-RTX-2060-vs-AMD-RX-5600-XT/4034vs4062

[spiral tulip]

I can get a ASUS GeForce GTX 1660 Super 6 GB Dual EVO OC Graphics Card for £240

[static rock]

that isn't very reliable either

[spiral tulip]

which might be the btter deal

[winter dagger]

I know lol

[winter dagger]

Prolly just stick with Gigabyte

[static rock]

I'd look at game benchmarks if that is what you are going after

[winter dagger]

True true

[spiral tulip]

My pc is basically Asus

[ripe ivy]

Based on game benchmarks they are on par

[spiral tulip]

Alot of the build is Asus

[winter dagger]

Yeah ok

I just watched a video

[spiral tulip]

GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1660 6 GB Super Graphics Card or this for £220

[winter dagger]

You are right

LOL

[spiral tulip]

again probably better

[winter dagger]

@round crown I just saw that the 5600 xt is just a bios restricted 5700 so that makes sense why it gets more FPS

You are correct

[round crown]

Userbench unreliable as well

[winter dagger]

Yeah

I know

[round crown]

But yes 5600xt is better

[winter dagger]

But 2060 gives you RTX LOL

But 5600XT is a solid card tho

[ripe ivy]

The worst kind of RTX

[winter dagger]

Ture

[ripe ivy]

It might as well not even have it

[winter dagger]

I gues

But therese dlss

too

[ripe ivy]

Sure DLSS is more of a selling point than RTX

[winter dagger]

Yeah

[ripe ivy]

And if all the games you're interested in has it, then that makes sense

[winter dagger]

RTX isn't very popular yet

[winter dagger]

Yeah

But otherwise go AMD

It's still the same idea with Ampere and Big Navi now lol

[fathom folio]

Is 450$ good for rtx 2080 super? Or should I wait

[winter dagger]

Oh dam second hand?

Or new?

[fathom folio]

Yeah used he had it for a few months

[dawn plover]

either way

that's a good deal

[winter dagger]

Hmmmm

[fathom folio]

He got a 3080

[dawn plover]

oh wait nvm

forgot the 3060ti cost 400

[winter dagger]

I wouldn't trust second hand

[winter dagger]

Doesn't matter

Availability

[dawn plover]

true

[fathom folio]

Was gonnna say

[dawn plover]

both cards that are on par either way

[winter dagger]

Yeah

But like it's used

@fathom folio If you can see it before you purchase it then that would be best

[fathom folio]

Does used effect performance?

[winter dagger]

No but you have no clue what they did to it

[dawn plover]

depends on how used it is

[winter dagger]

^^

They could've done a crazy OC that caused it to hit 86C under load which will kill it slowly

So yeah

That's why you buy used

Because you tend to have 0 clue what the previous owner did to the card

Espcially if it's a high end card

If it's a budget card then it's somewhat ok because the money being put in is much less

But with 450...

That's a lot of money you can lose

[fathom folio]

I see, im not really sure to how tell if its legit unless i buy it in person?

[winter dagger]

Right

And it shouldn't even be a question if you should or shouldn't buy it if it's a high end card

it's almost already a no

Unless it was only unboxed

But that's never the case

[fathom folio]

Well he said he only used for a few months but ended up upgrading to a 3080, he said it hasnt been oc at all

[winter dagger]

Ask the temps

[fathom folio]

And the pics of it look clean

[winter dagger]

Ask temps

[fathom folio]

Alright

He said around 70-80C on normal uses and 160-190F when gaming

[fiery night]

that seems a bit hot

but i dont know much about the card

[winter dagger]

Uhh that can't be right

[static rock]

up to 87c when gaming?

[winter dagger]

70-80C on idle?

Yeah that's sketch

[fathom folio]

He said forget the 70c one hiis mistake

[winter dagger]

ah ok

[winter dagger]

Yes

You are right

[winter dagger]

If the 190F is right, then that's not good

[fathom folio]

Damn

[winter dagger]

Graphics cards can take 85C max before they start to degrade

The degredation above 85C is slow but it will most likely take 1-3 months off that cards life

Once you get to 95C and above, it'll probably take 6-7 months off or more

You'll be re-pasting that card pretty quickly lol

[fathom folio]

Ah i think ill keep searching then

[winter dagger]

Yeah that's probably the best move

[fathom folio]

Im looking to get rtx 2080 and up so i can get some smooth 1440 gaming

[winter dagger]

My Rx 590 used to hit 82C max but I fixed it and now it does 78C max

[winter dagger]

Yeah

If you can wait till Q2 of next year, just get an RTX 3070

That'll be even faster than an RTX 2080 Ti

[fathom folio]

Yeah i currently have a 2060 super ill sell that

[winter dagger]

130 FPS at 1440P ultra

[winter dagger]

Yeah

But a 3070 will get you 130 FPS at 1440P ultra settings in I think COD MW so that'll be a good increase

[fathom folio]

Definitely

And also so i can play cyberpunk

[winter dagger]

Yeth

[fathom folio]

How big of a difference is a 3070 to 2080

[winter dagger]

10-20 more FPS on the 2080 Ti

and like 25 on the 2080

[fathom folio]

Yeah price to performance is definitely better then problem is availability been looking for about 1 month now

[winter dagger]

You'll have to wait till next year

It was never going to be a nice launch with Black Friday and Christmas right around the corner LOL

So yeah

Probably Q2 of 2021

[fathom folio]

Yeah the 3060ti sold out faster then how fast i could refresh the page

[rocky roost]

Any suggestions to replace my gtx 1050 TI?

[winter dagger]

Yep

[winter dagger]

GTX 1660 Super

Or if you can afford a 3060 Ti

Go with that

[tepid quarry]

Where you even findings 3000 series cards lol

The founder edition 3000 series actually looks so nice I want to get my hands on one

[winter dagger]

3000 cards are gone

Reduced to atoms

@unborn slate

LOL

[rocky cobalt]

how much is a 3060ti

[wispy meteor]

399 starting price

[umbral jackal]

yeah.

true!

taxes are evil!

[waxen iron]

Rule 9

[icy cove]

it was a joke

is that a rule?

[umbral jackal]

Rule 9

[icy cove]

ok

[waxen iron]

Maybe you should read rules before posting dumbass

[icy cove]

nah, it is just a discord server

[umbral jackal]

Rule 1.

[icy cove]

oof

[umbral jackal]

Rule 6.

[icy cove]

Uh ok

[waxen iron]

Next time you try to act entitled, try reading rules first. Capische?

[umbral jackal]

Rule 6.

[icy cove]

Entitled? Ok 😎 👍🏼

[umbral jackal]

rtx 3040 when?

[waxen iron]

Never

3050 will exist tho

[umbral jackal]

3030 when?

[lone pond]

unlikely for a xx40 or xx20 to be revived

[umbral jackal]

😢

[lone pond]

unless it's like a oem card

[lone pond]

kinda late but with how much cards been leaked we might see a 3030 tho.

but still
no leaks or news on the low end of nvidia, amd & intel

[umbral jackal]

Yay!

if I take a 1660, and slap it into a 1650, will it make a 3310?

[lone pond]

y
e
s

[charred drum]

Anyone reccomend a graphic card to get rn?

[icy cove]

3070 if you can get one, which you probably can't

[low tide]

anyone know where i can get a 1660

and a 3100 while yur at it

[umbral jackal]

1660

craiglist or facebook marketplace.

There is probably one for super cheap.

Or Ebay.

[split storm]

restock tonight?

[umbral jackal]

probably?

[split storm]

i really hope they dont just restock combos since you can't return parts of combos anymore :(

[gaunt shadow]

Is there a restock today?

[low tide]

is there!?!

[gaunt shadow]

Oh sorry I didn't see someone already asked

[low tide]

well im gonna stay up late

if there is

[gaunt shadow]

Well it's supposed to happen around now

But no notification
