is it still wotrh in 2021?

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:07 PM

#

Depends. for 1080p? It'll be OK

hollow dawn Jan 1, 2021, 9:07 PM

#

ye 1080p

#

thank you

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:07 PM

#

YW

#

Don't expect to put everything on Ultra though

#

Probably med-high with good FPS

hollow dawn Jan 1, 2021, 9:08 PM

#

I've never play my games on Ultra always med or low for better FPS

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:09 PM

#

Ah, OK. This will help then

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:09 PM

#

it's way better to wait for the 3050 then getting 5500xt

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:09 PM

#

What's the current GPU?

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:09 PM

#

hollow dawn I've never play my games on Ultra always med or low for better FPS

Go with a rtx 2060 or 2070 super good price to performance if you can get them for a cheap price

hollow dawn Jan 1, 2021, 9:09 PM

#

lone pond it's way better to wait for the 3050 then getting 5500xt

well i dont have a good pc

hollow dawn Jan 1, 2021, 9:10 PM

#

tender mulch What's the current GPU?

i5 9400f

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:10 PM

#

plus it has dlss

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:10 PM

#

Oh

#

you're using integrated graphics?

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:10 PM

#

and rtx if your into that

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:10 PM

#

heckuva boost!!

#

If you don't want to wait

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:10 PM

#

tender mulch heckuva boost!!

YEAAAAA

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:10 PM

#

tender mulch you're using integrated graphics?

F chips doesn't have a igpu

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:10 PM

#

2060 RTX is poo

#

Good point

#

XD

hollow dawn Jan 1, 2021, 9:10 PM

#

yeah they dont

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:10 PM

#

Graphics card

#

not CPU lol

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:10 PM

#

tender mulch 2060 RTX is poo

not if u can get it for cheap

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:11 PM

#

Trust me

#

I have one

#

Ray Tracing on the 2060 is oof

#

Don't buy and waste money

#

2070 or bust

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:11 PM

#

tender mulch Ray Tracing on the 2060 is oof

i mean 1080p performance

#

RT on 2060 is a meme lol

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:11 PM

#

Ray tracing 1080p on the 2060 is off

#

*OOF

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:11 PM

#

not rtx

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:11 PM

#

Don't do it

#

Not worth the money period right now TBH. 2060 shouldn't have existed

hollow dawn Jan 1, 2021, 9:11 PM

#

lol

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:12 PM

#

i mean as a 1080p without rtx it's decent

#

the only thing you would be using a 2060 for is DLSS
raytracing is a meme on 2060

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:12 PM

#

Anyway, if you can wait, the 5500XT is kind of a bad investment right now

#

If not, it will work just fine

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:13 PM

#

ye, nvidia leaks point at out some possible budget cards
and maybe some cards price will go down

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:14 PM

#

3060 confirmed

#

3080TI confirmed

hollow dawn Jan 1, 2021, 9:14 PM

#

3090

#

I'll wait then

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:14 PM

#

tender mulch 3060 confirmed

yea but I still want the 3060 ti

hollow dawn Jan 1, 2021, 9:14 PM

#

I dont want to waste money

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:14 PM

#

Good call

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:15 PM

#

even though I know the 3060 is coming

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:15 PM

#

I'm holding out for 3070/3070 TI if they make one

hollow dawn Jan 1, 2021, 9:16 PM

thank you guys

#

I'm starting to think they have discontinued 5500-5700xt

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:50 PM

#

nah

#

everything out of stock

#

People stuck at home and bored

#

demand outstripping supply

ripe ivy Jan 1, 2021, 9:51 PM

#

They'll discontinue them once they have something to replace them

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:54 PM

#

i found a 2080ti strix for 700

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 9:55 PM

#

why

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 9:55 PM

#

thats alot of monis for a 2080 ti

#

Is the 2060 super a good choice?

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 10:02 PM

#

No

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 10:02 PM

#

lone pond Is the 2060 super a good choice?

RN? nah
the price is still high for it.

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 10:02 PM

#

It was honestly never a good buy

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 10:02 PM

#

It came with my prebuild.

#

i mean, if you find it for extremly cheap deal

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 10:03 PM

#

Well, in that case, run what you brung

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 10:03 PM

#

i would go for it

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 10:03 PM

#

Just don't turn on Ray tracing. It will hurt

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 10:03 PM

#

also ye, don't try RT
DLSS is the only thing you should be using for the RT cores

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 10:03 PM

#

Yes

#

and NVENC

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 10:03 PM

#

I set my resolution to the 4k native. I useinf my tv atm til i can get a montior.

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 10:04 PM

#

NVENC and DLSS are good

#

It's not gonna game well at 4K at all

#

Just FYI

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 10:04 PM

#

Im still running 60-80fps at the highest setting on apex. Havent played much else.

#

Im brand new to the pc world and just grab the best build i could get for 1200

#

Everything else i saw has the 1080 in them

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 10:07 PM

#

Well, the 1080 is honestly a better card

#

Not trying to be a jerk

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 10:08 PM

#

How so?

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 10:08 PM

#

more FPS, better performance

#

Especially if it's a 1080TI

#

For nVidia, GPu generation jumps are typically 80 to 70 series

#

So, 1080 is about 2070 performance

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 10:09 PM

#

From what i gathered looking online thats what i noticed.

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 10:09 PM

#

2060 is roughly 1070 to 1070TI

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 10:09 PM

#

Even if its the super?

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 10:10 PM

#

Ye, 2060 super = 1070TI ish

#

oro 1080 non-TI

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 10:11 PM

#

Okay. If i send a link to the build i picked, could someone give me a little more insight on the parts with it. Everytime ive tried to ask others for they were jerks or really didnt know a thing, like me.

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 10:11 PM

#

Sure.

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 10:11 PM

#

Ty. Should i dm it?

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 10:11 PM

#

SOME OF US understand prebuilts aren't bad

#

If you want

static rock Jan 1, 2021, 10:12 PM

#

prebuilt is fine if you aren't getting scammed/no huge upcharge on parts

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 10:12 PM

#

I also got it during cyber monday.

static rock Jan 1, 2021, 10:13 PM

#

though if we are talking about the whole build in general then might be better to go in #building-and-recc-chat

lone pond Jan 1, 2021, 10:13 PM

#

They had a 2070 upgrade available for 100ish more and i kinda regret not taking that one.

#

Thats why i asked if i should dm it delro

tender mulch Jan 1, 2021, 10:23 PM

#

I mean

#

What they bought is honestly fine for the price

#

So good to go!

lusty jetty Jan 1, 2021, 10:40 PM

prisma burrow Jan 1, 2021, 10:42 PM

#

Yes?

candid otter Jan 1, 2021, 10:52 PM

#

I probably don’t have an answer

hoary hill Jan 2, 2021, 12:26 AM

#

Does the 3080fe perform worse vertically?

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 12:26 AM

#

no

#

Position doesn't matter as long as the airflow is good

#

Too close to the side panel is bad

hoary hill Jan 2, 2021, 12:27 AM

#

Yeah.. it hurts seeing cards against the side panel

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 12:27 AM

#

Mine is vert. Is cooler than my old case

#

2060 though not 3080

ripe ivy Jan 2, 2021, 12:28 AM

#

I remember when side panels had ventilation, but then Tempered Glass showed up in Case design phaWesker

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 12:28 AM

#

80mm panel fans lol

hoary hill Jan 2, 2021, 12:29 AM

#

I had a case at one point with a 140mm side panel fan

#

Solid blue lol

arctic phoenix Jan 2, 2021, 12:32 AM

#

the super cheap diypc cases still have those lmao

hoary hill Jan 2, 2021, 12:33 AM

#

I've only seen a few cases with perforated side panels that look as good as tempered glass

lone pond Jan 2, 2021, 1:08 AM

#

my pc case barely has any space for my 750 ti to breath

#

plus no fans on the case
so i have to open the side of the case

gritty notch Jan 2, 2021, 1:12 AM

#

lone pond plus no fans on the case so i have to open the side of the case

i have a system where its just the frame of the case and nothing else

#

i named it airflow keeeek

hoary hill Jan 2, 2021, 1:12 AM

I wanted to build my own like that

lone pond Jan 2, 2021, 1:12 AM

#

gritty notch i have a system where its just the frame of the case and nothing else

nice

vague slate Jan 2, 2021, 1:49 AM

#

Im sure you get this all the time, but if my CPU has integrated graphics should I run a graphics card??? - newby

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 1:52 AM

#

of course!

#

Much better performance

#

if you get a decent card, that is

vague slate Jan 2, 2021, 1:53 AM

#

Should I avoid CPUs with integrated graphics then?

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 1:54 AM

#

Generally, yes, unless you have no other option

#

Paying for something you don't need plus the integrated graphics CPU's tend to be lower performance

vague slate Jan 2, 2021, 1:54 AM

#

thanks so much

I was stuck

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 1:55 AM

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 5:32 AM

What do you currently have for a graphics card?

#

Freddy, what do you currently have for a graphics card?

sacred karma Jan 2, 2021, 5:49 AM

#

a GTX 750

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 5:50 AM

#

Mmmm

#

What kind of games do you play?

#

The reason I'm asking

#

Is that you could really use a CPU upgrade for modern games before a GPU

sacred karma Jan 2, 2021, 5:51 AM

#

ALL New ones that the Video Card allows lol

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 5:51 AM

#

Well

#

This isn't a video card problem, this is also a CPU problem if you want to play modern games

#

If you just slap a new modern video card in there, your CPU won't be able to keep up

sacred karma Jan 2, 2021, 5:51 AM

#

I can Play New Cyberpunnk just fine, even if the game sites say my Card wont play it...it does w/no Prob

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 5:52 AM

#

You need to balance the CPU and GPU though

sacred karma Jan 2, 2021, 5:52 AM

#

I go to Can I Run....and only My Video card is Under specs

#

#

Lilke i said

#

Go buy a PCI-E card

sacred karma Jan 2, 2021, 5:55 AM

and you got that from The INFO I sent? the PCI-E ?

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 5:55 AM

That's what all video cards are

#

and what your board has

?

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 5:56 AM

#

Nope.

#

All backwards compatible

sacred karma Jan 2, 2021, 5:56 AM

#

Really?? so WHY they have that as an Option?? when Buying??

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 5:57 AM

#

Older tech.

#

Less bandwidth

sacred karma Jan 2, 2021, 5:57 AM

#

Dam Ive been wasting so much Time searching??

#

so as long as My CPU / Power Supply n Case can run it....I just need to READ The

Power Needed to Run....The SIZE it is fo rthe Case and what CPU Min it Needs to run

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 5:59 AM

#

There's more to it than that but........that's the simplest version

sacred karma Jan 2, 2021, 5:59 AM

#

Yeah...if Im doing Good on Games NOw??

than it should be easy JUST to REPLACE the Video Card

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 6:00 AM

#

Until you get a video card that your CPU can't keep up with

sacred karma Jan 2, 2021, 6:00 AM

yea im going for budget here

4-6 pins

reccomended

you can give me a budget and i can try giving you ideas

im stil ldeciding on psu tho

safe marlin Jan 2, 2021, 11:07 AM

#

power supply ?

#

im running a 500w rn and its all i need

#

except when i run on a 4k monitor

#

i get power spikes and lose video for a second

#

but really all you would need is a 600w

#

but depending on what your doing i suggest upgrading to 16gb of ram and faster bc i think amd cpus performs better with faster ram

#

idk i forgot that stuff

#

like 3200mhz

peak moth Jan 2, 2021, 11:23 AM

isnt that 16gb tho

dense panther Jan 2, 2021, 8:19 PM

#

for now

#

at launch 2060 was good for 1440p

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 8:20 PM

#

Kinda

#

60 FPS mebbe

#

I guess it still does OK at 1440p actually

#

Thinking about, it's decent frames with good settings

dense panther Jan 2, 2021, 8:21 PM

#

in cyber punk 3060ti is not a high refresh rate 1440p card

#

and its a next gen game

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 8:21 PM

#

*poorly optimized game

#

Shouldn't need that beefy hardware for it

dense panther Jan 2, 2021, 8:22 PM

#

in 1 year 3060ti will bot be a 1440p high refresh card

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 8:23 PM

#

Ye, that's why I'm shooting for 3070/3070TI/super

#

whichever I can get first XD

dense panther Jan 2, 2021, 8:23 PM

#

exacly

inland hound Jan 2, 2021, 8:23 PM

#

I can do high refresh in most newer games on a 5700XT, a 3060Ti is much better than that

dense panther Jan 2, 2021, 8:23 PM

#

3070 meh

#

its only 10% faster then the 3060ti

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 8:23 PM

#

I know

#

Which is why 3070 super/TI

dense panther Jan 2, 2021, 8:23 PM

#

mor 3070ti

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

But if I can get my hands on a 3070 first, I'll take it

inland hound Jan 2, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

I’m trying for a 3080

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

Not gonna be terribly picky

dense panther Jan 2, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

and high refresh rate 1440 3080 6800 and 6800xt

#

i think

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

144hz ye

Unless it’s Zotac, I don’t care which AIB I buy from

dense panther Jan 2, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

zotac suck

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

Not comfortable with PNY either

inland hound Jan 2, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

Zotac trash

dense panther Jan 2, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

terrible cooler

inland hound Jan 2, 2021, 8:24 PM

#

PNY is alright, but the cooling is pretty bad

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 8:25 PM

#

Yup

#

I'm EVGA or bust for warranty purposes

dense panther Jan 2, 2021, 8:25 PM

#

im waiting for r5 5600 and 3060ti

#

evga is good and mai strix also

#

fe card are so good for the price

inland hound Jan 2, 2021, 8:26 PM

#

Y’all ever played Gwent?

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 8:27 PM

#

No

inland hound Jan 2, 2021, 8:27 PM

#

There is this pretty annoying RPG connected to it on Steam that you have to play through but the game itself is fun

#

I think both of em are packaged into something called ‘The Witcher 3” on Steam

tender mulch Jan 2, 2021, 8:27 PM

Hey guys, me again.
I know the 3050 Ti i think is coming out soon, and it's going to be around 200$-300$, but just in case it goes out of stock, or just as backup. Does anyone know any other good Graphics-Cards for around 200$-300$?

I'm asking if theirs any other ones you guys know about that are good for around 200$-300$.

depends

#

will you upgrade later for a ryzen 7 or do you plane to over clock

brisk flame no, the psu i suggested is a good one for the price

ok how modern do u think this pc will be or how long will it be

brisk flame Jan 2, 2021, 9:27 PM

you could run a 3080 and a 5600x off of 550w easily, the only issue is that there are no PSUs in that wattage range that can keep up with the transient power spikes on the 12v rail

if intel can handle availability and price properly, then the 5600x could be a bad buy in a few months

What about a gtx 980? Ik they're VERY different but again I'm curious.

like 100

pure carbon Jan 3, 2021, 1:52 AM

They all seem to be like $150+

Nobody seems wilking to drop their pricing rn, at least where I've experienced.

Also might be good to look at posts that have been up for a decent amount of time rather then new posts

pure carbon Jan 3, 2021, 2:09 AM

#

I usually look for ones that have been around for like 5months, some if them a couple years. I've had one person be willing to droo their price from 180 to 160 on a GTX 980 LIKE BRUH

wicked hound Jan 3, 2021, 2:10 AM

#

just bit a small bit pushy over it, nothing too bad though as you dont want to start flame wars. Tho just politely say "ya post been up for a while, obv that price isnt working"

@lone pond what ended up happening with your friend's 3090 ftw3 ultra? It sounds as though it would have been faulty. Literally overclocking your EVGA GPU won't void your warranty after all. I'm looking for people who also use the 3090 ftw3 ultra who have a hybrid kit. I'm considering getting a hybrid kit for mine, just curious if it makes a significant difference or bit.

would a 3070 be adequate for 1440p gaming? or is it sort of a waste to have a 3080 and not go 4k?

#

sage plank <@456226577798135808> what ended up happening with your friend's 3090 ftw3 ultra...

What ended up happening is that he used it for about a month and tried playing halo 2 with it. When you play halo on a 3090 it fries the PCB, and his popped and lit on fire. He has to RMA it, and is back on his 1080ti. Moral of the story: do NOT play halo on a 3090 unless you want to destroy it

3080 still struggles at 4k60 for a lot of games.

#

1440p for 3080 is nice

lone pond Jan 3, 2021, 3:48 PM

#

As for overclocking, the hybrid 3090 is probably the definition of overkill. Never saw temps over 50, which came at the trade off of raising room temperature noticeably

sage plank Jan 3, 2021, 3:48 PM

#

Well damn then 😂 wouldn't expect that

lone pond Jan 3, 2021, 3:50 PM

#

He didn’t get a kit, he just got a hybrid to begin with, but if you’re into overclocking then it’s probably more than solid even though I’m pretty sure he didn’t do anything but crank the boost clock up a few hundred mhz

sage plank Jan 3, 2021, 3:50 PM

#

Most games I can overclock about 100MHz by, or more. Temperature generally stays below 70. After long periods of time, it can reach to 80 but generally I'll use my evaporative cooler to start cooling down my room and it usually fixes its self. It has virtually no humidity, so it's safe enough for me to use 🙂

Not really. $400 doesn't buy you much performance.

sage plank Jan 3, 2021, 4:15 PM

#

True @lone pond lol, only reason why Nvidia was saved was due to DLSS and RTX. If AMD had both of those, or perhaps even just DLSS then Nvidia would have been done for 😂 they'll literally need more powerful cards if they want to stay on top next gen, since AMD is already working on a DLSS equivalent, not too sure about RTX though.

tender mulch Jan 3, 2021, 4:38 PM

nVidia isn't resting on their laurels like Intel did. I wouldn't expect a huge blow next gen.

#

May i ask, what do the numbers like "3050" and "1660" mean?

lone pond Jan 4, 2021, 2:21 AM

#

for nvidia

#

the first two numbers or first number is generation

#

the last two is type of card

#

like
xx50 is a low-mid range
xx60 is the mid range
xx70 is the mid to high
xx80 is the high end

#

however those cards also shift in place when a generation comes in

#

like a 1050 is a low end card

#

with 1060 already entering the low end range

#

since a new generation has came

#

aka rtx 30xx

gritty notch Jan 4, 2021, 2:23 AM

#

1060 still cute

hard ermine Jan 4, 2021, 2:23 AM

lone pond Jan 4, 2021, 2:24 AM

2xx and 3xx series aswell

#

the 30xx is the 2nd gen of RTX cards

hard ermine Jan 4, 2021, 2:25 AM

#

So the last two numbers are the ones i should more likely be looking after?

lone pond Jan 4, 2021, 2:25 AM

#

not really

#

you should like at all of the numbers

#

you could also look for benchmarks

hard ermine Jan 4, 2021, 2:27 AM

#

Okay, so let me see if i get this right.
A 450 would be bad.
A 1060 would be okay.
But a 3080 would be really good.
Is this correct?

vital oriole Jan 4, 2021, 2:27 AM

#

It's up to the benchmarks to say

lone pond Jan 4, 2021, 2:29 AM

#

hard ermine Okay, so let me see if i get this right. A 450 would be bad. A 1060 would be oka...

yes
because 450 is alot of generations behind
while the 1060 is only 3 generations behind and does hold up on most games.
3080 is currently the high end card for gaming
soon to be outmatched by the 3080 ti
the 3090 is more of a card that if you need a alot of vram for X Application

#

there is also the TI and Super variants of a card

#

also architeture weights in on the card

#

for nvidia, only cards that have some architeture issue and you will find easily used is a the gtx 7xx(760, 770, 780) with 750 ti(my card) having a better and refined architeture(and support?)

actually
both 20xx and 16xx came at Q1 2019

#

Yeah 16xx was after AMD started to dominate mid range I believe.

#

And then 20xx was because Nvidia has to be on top always.

you can look for 1660 though
1660/1660 ti/1660 super
for amd you can look for 5600xt but keep in mind that 5600xt is a more recent card and amd drivers might be issue

So, quick question for the more informed. I’m currently working with a four year old build that has an AMD FX Unlocked cpu and a Nvidia GTX 950 gpu. I was curious to see when I upgrade the cpu to an i7-10700, would the pc run similarly with the bottleneck? I obviously need to upgrade the ram to ddr4 and get an intel integrated motherboard, but while I’m waiting on my gpu, would this work?

tender mulch Jan 4, 2021, 7:50 PM

#

It would work, yeah. the integrated might even be better than the 950

#

Integrated has come a LOOOONNNGGGG way in this generation

lone pond Jan 4, 2021, 7:50 PM

XD

#

I don’t doubt it. Figured I’d try and slowly upgrade so I don’t burn a hole in my wallet. Thanks Vintage!

lone pond So, quick question for the more informed. I’m currently working with a four year...

damn, thats a huge upgrade lol

#

fx to 10700k

#

Dude you have no idea. Again, it's a four year old build that needs quite a bit of work xD

#

nice.

#

mine is like 8 years old now

#

still does work well though

#

Yeah, I think I still have my GTX 9800 lying around somewhere... that thing was a dino but still worked wonders.

#

if you going to use 10700k, the igpu gonna work way better than 9800 lol

#

plus newer APIs

#

My basic plan to roll out the new upgrade for my PC is purchasing the board, cpu, and half of the ram to at least get it working on the new hardware (Assuming my power box, case, and cooler will be savvy with the change). After that it's a matter of slowly getting the rest of the parts.

#

ah alright

#

lone pond My basic plan to roll out the new upgrade for my PC is purchasing the board, cpu...

is your PSU good tho? you really don't want a bomb with your newer hardware

#

I think? It's a 750w but I still got to see if it's ATX12.

#

you can awlays check the model of it

#

Yeah but that requires me to dig through my closet for the boxes, which I'm being a bit lazy today.

#

I'll certainly take a look before getting any parts replaced with my current build.

#

no need to dig for the box

#

there is a sticker on the side

wicked hound Jan 4, 2021, 9:04 PM

#

Dont just say company, make sure to get actual model

lone pond Jan 4, 2021, 9:04 PM

and you should look for the model: xuhhdi500u3x something like that

wicked hound Jan 4, 2021, 9:05 PM

Some realistic examples:
Corsair RM750
XPG Core 750
Enermax 750DF

lone pond Jan 4, 2021, 9:14 PM

#

Yikes. Don’t have the box upon looking, luckily a small check into the case won’t be too bad.

#

... I say as the label is obscured by a recessed dust wall.

#

you can awlays open the case and take a look at the sticker though

#

it should tell what the model of the PSU is

#

It’s a Sentey XPlus 725w. Time to look this sucker up.

tender mulch Jan 4, 2021, 9:27 PM

I'd be careful with that one. Caps dry out and don't provide the same amount of power they once did.

wicked hound Jan 4, 2021, 9:40 PM

I struggle severely with right-sizing a PSU - I'd like to know exactly the guardrails between which the system draw will stay but it's apparently like black magic

sure it wasnt 82 W

?

weary halo Jan 4, 2021, 9:44 PM

so then i started doubting the sensor / software

wicked hound Jan 4, 2021, 9:44 PM

CPUz usually doesnt show PSU stuff tho I thought

weary halo Jan 4, 2021, 9:45 PM

it's hwmonitor by cpuid, I misspoke from memory but just fired it up again

I'd stick to hwinfo64 tho, rather then hwmonitor

tender mulch Jan 4, 2021, 9:46 PM

Keep in mind each voltage rail has it's own amperage rating too

#

IE, 3.3, 5v, 12v

lone pond Ehhh... I’m thinking I’m just gonna save myself the worry and upgrade the psu to...

I'd do that, this PSU screams super budget which is concerning

Ngl it was. This was my first bab build.

#

I remember when I had to use a paper clip to hold the original heat sink down because it didn’t fit the socket quite right.

#

i would invest first on PSU

weary halo Jan 4, 2021, 9:50 PM

#

was trying to find the screenshot, I'd posted it in here a couple months ago but yeah - point is it's hard to determine what I'll need when I eventually get a 3060ti, and possibly a zen3 chip like the popular ryzen5

#

have the ryzen7 2700 (non x) now and like that it is 65w tdp

#

📎 unknown.png

wicked hound Jan 4, 2021, 9:52 PM

#

650w PSUs suffice for almost everyone who runs stock.
Could do 5950x + 390w 3090

weary halo Jan 4, 2021, 9:52 PM

#

but anyway it was the Max column of the CPU power section when I exited COD Warzone and went to check

#

i'ev got a gold 550w psu right now by evga

tender mulch Jan 4, 2021, 9:53 PM

#

Gold doesn't really matter TBH

#

It's not a quality indicator

weary halo Jan 4, 2021, 9:53 PM

the gpu is using the 12v rail surely so I can extract the actual amperage from that

tender mulch Jan 4, 2021, 9:54 PM

I wrote mine down a long time ago so I'd have it

weary halo Jan 4, 2021, 9:55 PM

#

it's only rated 45.5A on 12v rail

#

which is a nominal 546w

#

but all these psus have large caps in them on the dc supply side for large outrushes and whatnot

#

like I said for your average consumer, it is absolutely not clear at all

tender mulch Jan 4, 2021, 9:56 PM

#

Well, keep in mind that the 3.3 and 5V rails also factor into the total wattage

wicked hound Jan 4, 2021, 9:56 PM

#

I'd have to guess you pulled some oopsies and missread or the software wanted to not work. No AM4 CPU will have even a <1ms transient load of 900w

weary halo Jan 4, 2021, 9:57 PM

#

yeah that was my theory

wicked hound Jan 4, 2021, 9:57 PM

#

dont know if a stock AM4 CPU has 200w <1ms transient load

weary halo Jan 4, 2021, 9:57 PM

i was going to just get a 750w and call it done

tender mulch Jan 4, 2021, 9:57 PM

#

Most I've seen on my 3700x is 118W or something

weary halo Jan 4, 2021, 9:57 PM

#

but it'd sure be nice to know exactly what is needed

#

I think the rx550 in here now peaked at like 29w

#

asrock is apparently going to be supporting the zen3 chips on this x470 too but I don't think the firmware update is published yet

Not yet from what I've seen

#

Ye

weary halo Jan 4, 2021, 10:00 PM

I'll probably wait til black friday time to upgrade the cpu so that the pc is actually 3 years old. I feel kinda weird about doing a cpu upgrade shorter than that when I'm not really needing it. so I guess I'll cross my fingers when I move to a 115w cpu 🤷‍♂️
