Ok
hi
PSU Tier List 4.0 rev. 14.6 Last Update: 29-11-2020 Gray - EoL / obsolete. Generally not recommended for purchase since its going to be pre-owned, refurbished or old stock. Green - small form-factor (gold and blue colors are disregarded due to scarcity of SFX PSUs) Gold - best units in the tier (...
That'st he list
Pick something Tier A or B
if going 3070
Ok
hi
what is msrp?
oh okay
"Suggested" is the operative word here. No retailer is obligated to sell it at that price.
So I got lucky and landed a 3080 FE this morning. When replacing my 970 that I'm using temporarily, do I need to uninstall drivers ahead of time or can I do it once I put in the new gpu? Haven't swapped gpu's before, only built from scratch
Ideally you would use DDU in safe mode to remove the drivers, then shut it down to remove the old card, put the new one in and install new drivers
With that big of a generational gap I'd recommend that, but other times with smaller upgrades not totally necessary unless you encounter issues like low performance.
Sounds good, I'll keep the safe mode part in mind š Thank you
Quick questionāthe Gigabyte 3060 Ti VISION was announced about month ago. Has it seen release since?
Not that I'm aware of
10 PST
Kk thx
garbage group regulated power supply lol
whoa i was scrolled up
whoa this isn't the psu channel
Is this ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3070 a good card, or should I stand by for either Gigabyte Gaming or EVGA cards?
is a gtx 1050 ti still good
i heard that the TUF cards are really good
i am planning on getting the gigabyte gtx 1650S anybody knows when will it be restocked?
eh kinda? if you donāt plan on playing the newest games like cyberpunk then itāll be fine for you. Itās not the greatest card out there but if thatās the only thing you can get then go for it
if you can you should get the gtx 1650 super when it gets on stock
rtx 2080 or rtx 3080?
does anyone here have like a 1650-1660?
is there no newegg shuffle today?
Yes there is, Three ASUSes and a couple MSIs.
Thank you!
I'm lazy and weird so I usually get to the page for the shuffle by googling "newegg shuffle" and today that didn't give me the actual shuffle as a result
hnnnng they're shuffling the two gpu models I want the most today š„ŗ
is the 3070 tuf on new egg oc or not?
it doesn't say it's the OC model, but don't those just have a higher base clock? or are they binned
I bought a NEW 6800 XT Taichi from Newegg, and the metal part there you plug in your connectors for monitors is totally bent so I cant install it into my case.
well that'll be a fun rma
it was clearly not new, it was missing a lot of plastic and had scratches and bent pins
I tried getting a replacement, but it's been hell, dealing with their customer service.
ya they have a better overclock but i dont want to buy if it doesnāt
I bought it from their Ebay page, and I just keep having a hard time
I'm not sure they actually overclock better, they might just be set to a higher base from the factory. Like after you open afterburner the difference between oc/non-oc tuf should be marginal at best
Anyone had to do that before? RMA a card?
true
oh yeah, the box is like 5 images deep on the page lmao
should be literally no noticeable difference anyway
Thats the only card that i think they wont have enough stock for
my 3080 TUF OC has only ever been restocked twice
in its entire existence
well i sign up for the shuffle
I am channeling my entire will into this shuffle
I want a tuf or ko card real bad
well i think im just going to give up on the hunt for a fair priced 3080 to upgrade my 2080.. i get decent fps with it in 1440p anyway.. so my son will just have to live with the 970 i gave him when i got my 2080.. lol
2080 still hecka decent to be honest
Shuffle for the win
but its soo much price
Hoping to get the 3070 TUF as well
Just wish sanctions hadnāt driven the price up so much
when will be cheaper ?
When sanctions on China are lifted, its not affecting NVIDIA cause they do their stuff in Japan, Taiwan and Korea IIRC, but the AIBs are being hit hard
Because they do production and in some cases are based there
will there be sales
fck
I know its a decent card, just would like some higher fps to make better use of my new LG 34 Ultrawide with 144Hz.. lol
but 2080 should be like 60 fps for most games
depends on the game ofc
well for people that didnt buy a **ultrathiccc **monitor
yea i avg low 60's with the games i play on high to ultra settings, just seems like a waste of a high hz monitor to play at 60fps.. lol
I was on a 970 until a few months ago, he can deal with 1080p medium settings :p
Asus or MSi makes their motherboards in taiwan i can't recall whether it was MSi or asus but i know they do manufacture the boards in taiwan
Ahhh
pretty sure the GPUs are just assembled in china
i think all the mobo manufacturers are in taiwan
Anybody knows when will the gigabyte gtx 1650 super restock
tuesday
ooooooohhhhh, i want to snag 1
wait really?
i want the windforce to come back in bc its pretty cheap
my friend got one for 120 on black friday
G6X also more costly to make than before
I wouldnāt recommend that card
In my country itās more worth it than the 1660 Super
With a difference of 249 USD
Hey i have a question so I just finished building my PC I have everything but the graphics card Would I be able to install windows and use the computer without the graphics cardļæ¼
What CPU do you have?
to post youd need a cpu with a gpu in it like for intel a non k skew
Ryzen 9 3900xt
not without a CPU with oboard graphics
Nope
Then no
Are there like special CPUs that act like a graphics card
They have GPUs in them
Ohh
Not particularly special tho
Thx
Before you go and buy one, the GPU in it sucks
Just wait for GPU to show up
So i do have my old pc graphics card its like a 1060 6gb but the pc i built now it pretty op Would there be any problem with using the old graphics card for the time being until the new one comes
Not at all
Just prepare for bottlenecks
Your GPU is going to keep the system back for a little while
No problem at all unti lthe new one comes in
Ok thank you ššÆ
Bottlenecks just means somethings will perform better than others right?
bottleneck is when something limits the performance of another
Ok thxšÆ
So your system will likely only perform as good as the 1060 allows it to
Things that are more CPU bound (Like Minecraft and COD: Warzone) would probably perform mostly the same as with a modern GPU
Especially on 1080p and around there
Ok so if i use the old one then when i install the new gpu when it comes using the old one wouldnāt affect anything negatively correct?
Donāt get me wrong, it will affect stuff negatively
Just not as much in more CPU-bound games
Ah la, games that use the CPU more
But when i install the 3070 when it comes then everything should be fine using the 1060 shouldnāt ļæ¼affect anything right
Two things before you install the 3070: 1. Download DDU. 2 Boot to safe mode and run it to remove all traces of GPU drivers.
Then uninstall the 1060
install the 3070
and install new drivers
Ok then everything should be good
Yep!
Oh, one more note
Use two individual power cables for the 3070
Don't use both ends from one cable
Really ok thx
Yes
Does that make it perform better
Each PCI-E power cable can supply roughly 200 watts, the card needs 225 or more
Ohh ok thank you
YW
But i do have the lian li strimmer cables so i should just do the same thing just plug 2 separate pci-e into the cable
Ahhhhh
Yes, there should be two separate power cables from the Power supply to the GPU
A lot of them only use one 8 pin
Some use an 8 and 6 pin
Iāve only seen one that uses 8 and 8
WHich one?
I think most do TBH
Everyone else does either a single 8 pin or 8+6
My Vision OC does 8+6
Which arrived today but Iām in Denver 
FE technically uses an 8 pin
Just one
Well
I suppose thatās not entirely accurate
But you can use it with just one 8 pin because of the proprietary connector
Iām sure itās fake
eBay does that
It helps both the seller and eBay themselves to fake those numbers
If you do ctrl+U you can see source code for randomizing that number based on the popularity of the product
My 3070 has 2 8 pins so should i use two individual pci-e from the power supply
The asus tuf
Yes
ThxšÆ
The TUF OC is an odd one
2 large fans
Are they any good? Havenāt seen any cooling benchmarks
tuf has 3 unless you're talking 16 series
yeah
Wait one
Yup
I was thinking of this one
but are you have graphics card
I want to am have graphics card
I didn't win the Newegg GPU lottery. Second round lost. The search continues...
Dallas won it 4 times in a row 
geez
š š“
I've only ever won it for cpus I ended up not really wanting
^
Same, at least for the 5800x. I skipped going past checkout.
won once for a 5600x and once for a 5800x, neither are enough of an upgrade from my 3700x to make me want to spend money :p
Also same. But I ultimately decided, since I have a 6600k, that going for the R5 is more than enough of an upgrade to meet certain performance requirements.
All we can do is soldier on.

BAN
@grizzled sorrel
does anyone know a place that has 3070s in stock at a good price
Need to wait for Best Buy drops or do the Newegg Shuffle every morning
ok thanks
My amd gpu drivers were interrupted during an update by windows deciding I needed to update
Just DDU and reinstall
is newegg stopping 3060ti restocks for chinese new year?
what is the new egg shuffle and where is it located
10 AM PST every day
Sign up for things you want š
thanks
YW
let me rephrase, not every day
Monday - Thursday I know for sure
Not sure about Friday or the weekend
the only 1650s that's on stock is at fb marketplace lol
pretty sketchy market imo
my cat ran over my keyboard and now there is happening there is a delay of which I can press the same key again how do I fix this?
are there any 6800 graphics cards anywhere?
im still trying to get 3060 ti anyone who can help get one pls
i got mine using a stock radar server
hoiw do you download that{
StockDrops
Almost MSRP in Canada
Is that the clown lips model though?
Much actually go for it, never got hands on a RX 6000 card yet, only touch 30s cards (except 3090)
That's the reference model
Or "founders"
Ooh another ok seller
So yes the clown lips model
ive been doing a little mining and have had my 570 in compute mode for about a week now, but radeon software wont let me change back to it and is stuck on graphics mode. everything is up to date. any suggestions?
DDU in safe mode and reinstall drivers
@livid idol it worked. ty !
Awesome! Glad I could help
When are we going to be able to buy video cards again?
TOmorrow during the Newegg Shuffle
is newegg still doing announced drops in the afternoon?
No, they've switched to the shuffle
SIgn up by 10 AM PST for the things they have available
they're moving new stock 100% through shuffle now?
The more popular things, yes
huh, alright
somestuff be rly overpriced tho
hey i want to get a new gpu because the one have now isnt the best (its a Gigabyte 1030 ti 2G) and i got some money so i wanted to know if you guys have any suggestions for anything under 200?
Hey, so I'd suggest saving longer : )
If 200 is all you got get back to me and we can find something
Saving at least $500 is good
Yeah
@lone pond what cpu you got
Dunno
U can get an rx 570 for a hundred on eBay
@terse verge i have an AMD A8 9600
Hey my gpu just went on me it won't give no picture at all and i need a new GPU is anyone selling or know where I can find one?
Nice my 3060ti just shipped
Which cpu do you have
No I mean the 8gb one
The ASrock Phantom X rx570
8gb
Changing my amd gpu with a nvidiA today do I need to do anything for the drivers?
Yes
Download DDU
Boot to Safe mode, run DDU, uninstall all the AMD gpu drivers
Shut down, change physical GPU
boot up, install new drivers
I hope so, I been trying to get a new RTX 3000's series.
@hybrid kettle 3700x
Yeah I saw some 3060ti on the Shuffle a couple days ago
3060tis are on the shuffle?
The shuffle is goated, I copped a 3070 vision awhile ago
It was Tuesday I think I saw the 3060ti and a couple 3070's
I mean, i think im good for another year for my card
how do i join the shuffle for the 3060ti?
Next round of entries should open at 10 PST, winners notified around 3:30
nice. thanks
there's no 3060s in the shuffle 
Try again another day then. GPUs are still really hard to come by.
try on bb
no i mean it's not even an option
bb just dropped on tues, meaning they likely won't have another drop until at least the 23rd
The stock in the shuffle changes every day.
And yeah I saw it on Tuesday in the shuffle so it might be a bit.
I doubt they drop for more weeks than that because of new year
š¤·āāļø
I need the 3070 FE
iirc someone mentioned everyday at 6:00 ish but that was just said in passing
Just the SHuffle
Their drops have also been unreliable lately. Fridays or Tuesdays, hopefully they get regular again
mhm, i got the card for someone then they said nah i cant grab it this week....
tried to find someone who would pay me cost pus shipping but no 1 wanted to canceled order
Too bad you can't sell on here, I'm sure someone would love to grab that
ya, i know
i told my first zotac 3070 for cost to a friends brother and then bought a 3070 FE for my self
kind of want a 3080 FE
I can't wait for my 3080 FE to arrive Saturday. Wanted a 3070 but checked out so fast when best buy dropped that I didn't even notice I got a 3080 instead
Happy accident I guess š¤£
Hope your PSU is beefy lol
thats the thing lol i only have a 650W SFX PSU
LOL that's what I said as well. And I got an 850
i need to upgrade my PSU to even run a 3080
thats why i started with the 3070
better than my 1070 i had
im running the coolermaster NR200p so its not the biggest case to fit the larger cards nicely
When I started buying parts for the build a couple of months ago I prepped a bit ahead of time lol Not planning on upgrading again for a bit so went safe and bought more then what I needed
ya i upgraded at the end of 2019 but kept my gpu from my previous build
which was the 1070
I've had all my parts ready to go for a while but just been waiting on GPU this whole time. Luckily my friend loaned me his 970 for a bit till I get my own just so I can at least put the PC together and somewhat use and not just collect dust š
ya i ended up waiting till the 20 series was over, sat on the 1070
I didn't even bother with it either. I have a laptop with a 1060 which did enough for it's time. Felt like a waste to me if I bought then
EVGA FTW Ultra Gaming 3070 for $700...
...I said my max budget is $650.
What the heck? enters
True
gt 210 best tho
keep going back and forth on getting a 3080 FE
I dunno
when i can
Im torn between a 2070 super or 2070
i dont use a my PC that much due to going between 2 households. have a ps5 at one and my PC at another
I still have a Mobility Radeon HD 4250 in my laptop that's even worse than that lol
that aint a thing
how much will it cost
get a 3080
3070TI isn't even confirmed lol
Not bad at all
Ryzen is about as good as Intel overall 5000 vs 10 series, it depends on what you want to do with it. AMD games run better on Ryzen, others better on Intel.
i have a ryzen 2700x and like it but i bought it in 2019
My replacement for my 2700 came in yesterday and IT WAS SO WORTH IT. The 5000s are sooo much better.
Literally doubled my FPS in MMOs
ya i want to upgrade my CPU
what cpu
5800X
2700x is what i have. i havent because it doesnt seem necessary atm
not sure if my Mobo can run the new ryzen
what mobo
If it's B450 or better, it can
A320, nah
It really depends on what you use it for. I play a lot of CPU limited games so I need the single core beast.
but if u want u can always go for a 4 thousand dollar 3990x!
b450i aorus pro wifi amd socket
Yewah, you can use 5000 series if you update BIOS first
cool, might consider it, doesn't seem necessary atm but wanted to look into it
No rush of course, if you don't feel the need to upgrade you don't have to.
james what gpu do u got
Just know that you CAN when you so choose.
3070 FE
ive been debating to go for a 3080 but would need to upgrade my PSU
only have a 650SFX
Upgrade the CPU before the GPU, unless you're playing on dual 4k monitors
^
not going to do 4k atm
Even a 5600x would be an upgrade
3070 is overkill for 1080, even 1440 doesn't use it fully
just upgraded to a 3440x 1440p ultra wide
is it 144hz
had a 1080p 144hz that i use a second screen now and no i compromised on a 100hz 3400 x 1440p
^
ya i know, like i said i compromised on it. š¦
i use a 1080p 144hz as a 2nd monitor
didnt even know that was a thing tbh lol
We recently posted a hands-on experience about the QNIX 2710, and now weāll cover how to overclock a monitorās refresh rate to exceed the stock 60Hz. -
Hey if someone who knows gpu and motherboard wiring help me out with a ABS prebuilt I just received?
Sure, what did you need?
Mind if I DM you a pic of this random molex unplugged
Sure since you can't post pics until lvl 3
Looks like an extra couple of connectors, nothing to worry about
Is there a release date on the 3060
Leaks say Feb 25 but take that with a grain of salt
Sure, people love to pick those apart and tell you why you're wrong š JK they're really helpful
You need to be level 3 to post links though, so just the basic text will work
Ok thanks
so i bought a 165 hertz monitor but when i go to set it to 165 it only gives be the option of up to 144. is this a limitation of my graphics card? im currently running a r9 380 because im waiting for the 6800 xt to be a possibility
Yeah, depending on the HDMI version of the monitor, the cable, and the GPU the HDMI spec version itself could be the problem
The R9 380 supports HDMI 2.0 so either the cable or the monitor is limiting
how much can i sell a barly used 1660 msi venutus, i want to sell it for 240 is that to much?
1660 super?
there are some for around 280
yeah, on new egg there are listed for 500
yeah, prices are inflated rn
gpus are getting bought like nuts
especially cuz of the pandemic
so i should sell now?
more people are looking into gaming and pc building as a hobby / they're working from home
im trying ti get my hands on a 1650 super but theyre either sold out or 500 bucks
yeah, and 250-300 is ideal if you want to make a profit
yea itll get bought quick
take advantage of the situation š
thx will do
Unlucky the third time. I suppose that's fine, $700 is reaching.
Just ask Dallas for a card lmao
Not yet, young'un.
should I get the 5500 xt or wait for 5700 xt to restock?
When
Or 3060Ti if you have the budget for a 5700XT
No one knows
oh

getting 30s series gpus are hard asf
hi guys, i recently got a rtx 3070 and every time i restart my pc it freezes any game i play after a boot, but the issue resolves itself after 15-30mins. i tried ddu and underclocking the core clock via msi but it's still happening, not quite sure what's going on here
testing it with heaven benchmark rn, first couple of tries it gave an "out of memory" fatal error crash, but now it's running fine, but if i restart my pc it'll probably go through the same thing and restabilise itself
My pc does the same thing you think you could download whocrashed and let me know what the error messages say specifically?
Its not normal but it is fixable.
oh thanks, that's very good to know
For me,
i'll download it and give it a try, meanwhile the fatal error goes like this
My motherboard is very cheap and a few of the pins under the ram are bent so I am ordering a new motherboard
I can help you find the problem are you fine with switching to pms?
does anyone know how to fix a code 43 on intel 630 graphics?
43 is often caused by throttling issues due to heat. What're your package temps for cpu?
Also on the intel website you can download the intel drive update utility which will update your uhd 630 drivers for you, which may help.
Yes the 3080 has arrived

Honestly the build quality of the 680/980/1080 FE is 
The blower cards??
Your not wrong
Getting about 83
Under 100%
But to be fair that is in a bequiet case
Blower cards in general run hot
Pairing with that xeon that gave us the trouble
Perfect pairing
Wish that ssd I bought of ebay worked
Yep
the one with the funky bridge reporting the weird temps that I made you take apart for no reason XD
Yep, held together by zipties and copper wire xD
The coil whine tho
Crazy from the mobo
Might disable power settings
Heard that helps
Will it ever get easier to actually find a gpu in stock?
How long do you think this will go on for?
ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Did newegg give up on the newegg shuffle???
No, it happened today
Wtf how are people getting notified it said download the app for notifications...
There's still that link.
Every weekday at 10amPST
Ok thanks I'll keep an eye out.
is the shuffle only for ryzen 5th gen cpus?
GPUs are included as well.
Nah gpus too
it's for ryzen 5000 series, nvidia rtx 3000 series, radeon 6000 series
As well as mobos for combos.
some of them get bundled with mobos/psus to move dead stock
they're offloading gigabyte p-gms 
I didn't think Gigabyte B550 Aorus Pro AC is considered dead stock.
What's the rtx a6000
Ohhh thx
well it's definitely not a hot commodity, those look in stock normally
i have a question about a gpu if you guys know anything
yeah whats up?
How hard is it to get a 3070 fe
gotta be refreshing best buy at 8 am or whenever they stock
Ussually drops happen on tuesday around 11:30 eastern
Hey guys I have a quick question
Regarding psu on my build
I have a asus rog 570 crosshair, 3900xt cpu, will get 3080, and was wondering if a 850 watt psu will be enough to OC
dude i gotta see that
follow their twitter
The top one is a sapphire gt120
The bottom is a 980 FE
Yes, sapphire made an Nvidia card
I use it for testing
980 pog
Is there going to be a product shuffle today
I think itās 1070 maybe Ti and 3060 Ti @hot kiln
did some research and found that a radeon x1600 pro from sapphire might be the first one @frozen owl
Hm
Cant even find one on ebay
Nvm
PCI-E 1.0 lulz
So, @frozen owl , why are you looking for the oldest HDMI card
Yeah an adapter might be best
Since its the specs of my first pc
The only thing different is
Im going with a new psu
Omg it does I couldnāt see that
But I just remembered 1070s looked a little different than that too
after seeing SC black 1080Ti so many times, was taking an easy bet of 1080 or 1080Ti
anyone have some 30 series they want to unload LOL
ebay
Is a 1060 6gb better than an rx580 8gb?
Rule 9
No
Unless you want the 1060 for NVENC
Msi rtx 2070 super for 600$ a good price?
No
No
That's more than MSRP
oh damn
this clown is selling it to me for 600$ on facebook marketplace
no im buying
i meant to say sell
Yep, good on you for asking
Reason: Bad word usage
oofer
Ouch
Only thing stopping me from starting my pc build is the gpu, I canāt find ANY reasonably priced 3070 or 3060ti anywhere
Best offer I got from someone like $800 for a 2x ventus 3070
Thatās because of scalpers
Best Buy: Queue? Whats that? Never heard of it
When they do drops
Add to cart
Then wait
don't refresh
Then add to cart again when it turns yellow
and boom done
Only drop once every two weeks though
so more frequently than back then
Also from the information i gathered they seem to drop in the mornings
no shuffle today, oof
never they are out of cards
just gimme a 3070 ko already š©
Plugged into another pc
Worked fine. So the card isn't the issue. Either motherboard or riser cable
wait RISER CABLE
Ye
bruh
Plug directly into motherboard
Riser cables need to be set to PCI-E 3.0 in BIOS
Cuz 4.0 won't work
Ok im otw home now to do that.
Yeah had that issue with my riser card
I could've sworn I did this before
Set bios to 3.0 save and exit
then install GPU on riser card
If it doesn't work directly on motherboard
there's your issue
Alrighty
@tender mulch
What is the cheapest rx 570 I can get or a similar card
There isn't a shuffle today, is there?
No shuffle today, Monday-Thursday
you can get a $400 ASrock Phantom X RX570 8gb 1280 cor clock stock mhz is what I get the listed mhz is 1200 or something
That is not the best for the price for sure but thats what I have.
and I can help you understand how it performs
I did lmao
Why would you
Mine is 8gb
You could get a 2070 for that price refurbished
idc
So you would rather have a RX 570 than a 2070
i hate how the sellers are driving prices up and people are buying them
Demand > Supply, consumers have no choice. It's not sellers "driving up the price", that's how a market economy works.
Sure it's been amplified by people playing the system like scalpers, but it's always been like this.
Well the reality is it is both supply and demand right now. We are seeing low supply (global semiconductor shortage) and particularly high demand. This leads to out of stock GPUs and sky-high prices. Plus tariffs are driving prices of new GPUs up as well
It's a perfect storm, not just one thing
hey yall. I'm getting a big flush of money soon, and I'm looking to potentially make a spiffed out build with it. I was thinking of going for the 3090, but I'm wondering if I could get more bang for my buck if I get two lower-tier RTX cards in SLI. I already have a 2070 in this build, so maybe I could do something with that
any thoughts?
(please @ me if you're responding)
SLI is dead and gone. Just get a 3080 and call it a day
can I get specifics on SLI being dead?
Nvidia disabled support for it on everything but the very top cards
It's not supported anymore. Two SLI 2070's will not outperform a 3080
So just get a 3080
how do i get a 3080 guys
Luck
oh yeah, I did forget about the GPU shortage hell
oh well, it'll be a bit before I get this money
Reason: Bad word usage
It's not just your opinion either, it's just about everyone's. It's not worth twice the price for 10-20% better
anyways, what in the sam hill did nvidia do that made the 3090 as much as it costs
Well, a good portion of that is tariffs now
Everything but the Founders Editions have extra taxes
I think they were banking on AMD not being able to touch it, and it would be the top workstation card where a good chunk of their high end market is
This too
Does anyone have any idea how long i'll be waiting if i were to pre-order a 3080?
Depends where you order from, anywhere from a month to 3 months
where can you PO a 3080?!?!
Pre-Order from whom?
lol
Maybe meant backorder
scan are offering a PO
Only people I know doing that is EVGA sign ups
i believe
Who is scan?
i think im wrong actually
Best bet is either a local shop like microcenter or hope you're lucky at the shuffle or best buy drops
I'm UK based so there aren't many big stores like that I can travel to easily due to covid restrictions
Yeah UK is a bit more strict right now on that. Just gotta get lucky then.
DONT DO IT
and the current one i have is just so close to dying
That's just validating them, you can do better if you want to get it sooner
Without breaking restrictions on travel I realistically won't be able to get a 3080 for at least 6 months and my pc will not last that long
either that or i go 3070 which isn't the worst idea
Even in 4K, the 3070 should push at least 60 FPS in most games
Ray tracing is a different story but you should be fine with it
A 6800XT wouldn't be a bad option either if it comes in stock before the 3080
Not as good at ray tracing but still fairly comparable
I'd do it just to say I can if I had the money lol
deez nuts
Shhh, lili
How does one acquire 3060ti in uk
And How would bots work
The bots notify you when the parts you want are in stock pretty fast, a lot faster than the "notify me" emails. There's discord channels for that, search it since we can't link to other channels.
Ok š
joins a Stock Drop Bot server
Let's see how well this increase my chances.
monitor deez nuts
THE META OF THIS CHANNEL THIS YEAR IS
GET RIPPED OF YOUR ASS OR GO HOME
(this sounded so harch for some reason xD )
wat
You are allowed to say ass
yeah litteraly pc building in 2021
...interesting
HOLD MY BEER
Someone's frustrated lol
yeah
poor brother can't have a GPU for his pc xD
I'll need to go hardware hunting
harch
Kiss me
im down bad, might buy a 3070 from a scalper
Please don't
More will be available Tuesday maybe
Join a stock bot discord
ill keep my eye out
I refuse
Rude
my motherboard comes in monday
i've had to use an optiplex 3020 with a 4570 and 8gb of ram for the last 2-3 weeks
don't
i joined stockdrops discord
Snail Monitor I saw was recommended, no harm in joining both
Yeah donāt buy a 3070 from a scalper. Huge waste. Iāve been waiting months and finally got mine, never though I would
can you send me a dm with an invite of the stockdrop discord? š

any one know when 3060 non it models will come out
the 25th iirc
^yup
I want a water block for my 3070
EK
Ek takes a long time to ship itās actually annoying
You don't have to buy it direct from EK, they sell most of them on Amazon
Just make sure it's the right part, pics don't always match
I need help finding a good gpu
Finding as in choosing or finding as in getting one that's in stock?
anyone know where to find a GPU at MSRP?
Build a time machine and find which poin in the future the gpu market normalize. Then go back here and tell us when will it happen :)
hahahaha will do
Im so proud of my 3060, packin some rtx schmeat
I need helppp
I have a hard drive I want to get information off of
It works fine
But when I try to boot into the main thing it says itās not a proper boot device
Then you're trying to boot the wrong drive. Why did the boot order change in the BIOS?
Boot from the Windows 10 drive
not the drive you want info from
It's most likely the Sabrent M.2
you installed windows on ur hdd?
Right
Like install files and pictures onto a usb
You installed Windows to the M.2 yeah?
Yes
SO boot from that
The m.2 is my current drive
The other drive will show as a storage drive and you can pull stuff from it
Boot manager Sabrent yeah
Ok, go to Windows - Users - Username
Docs, Downloads, Pictures will all be there
wait no
Users - Username
not windows
Ok
What's the best way to get a gpu in 2021?
@tender mulch so like I unplugged the hard drive but now itās being all weir
Weird
Itās preparing automatic repair
Now itās restoring š
Very curious questionāwhat is it about the 3080 that has made it more appealing than the 3070, despite the 3070's price-to-performance and power consumption advantage?
it's a more powerful card
4K gaming and Ray Tracing at any resolution
Even if I only use it for as high as 1440p gaming at max?
If I have no interest in 4K gaming, or fueling up on power consumption for that range, what's the incentive for 3080?
Can the 3070 provide good enough ray tracing?
Given the price the 3070 AIBs are going for lately, a straight FE 3080 seems like common sense, but by that logic I could've gone straight to a 3070 FE.
If 1440pRT60 is the peak for 3070, then so be it.
With RT off the FPS is so much better
That's a no-brainer. RT is a performance hog after all.
Yeah, that's with DLSS on too
A QoL for RTX.
on the 3070?
Yeah at 1440p
What retailers will have the 3060?
Dunno yet, hasn't been announced
Good card, worst bang for buck right now
Yall have any idea of the price of the 3060?
$330 MSRP for the FE model
I heard that theres not gonna be FE, its that true?
Not like 3060 ar going to be buyable anyway
True
Not even the GT 1010
Nvidia already said there's be no rtx 3060 FE last I heard. I'd personally be surprised if AIB models are less than $400, but we're close to the launch date so shouldn't need to speculate much longer
They accidentally early launched in a few countries (and I'm sure those retailers are getting penalized)
why even set the base price at $329 if there's no FE?
It's still considered MSRP (manufacturer suggested retail price)
Nvidia being the manufacturer of the GPU cores
I need help on a graphics card but I donāt know if i should get intel or amd?
The 3060/3060Ti page has a card depicted with a design more akin to the higher end cards than the 3060Ti with one fan on the bottom
Intel?
Intel doesnāt make GPUs
Oh it's the thumbnail right up there
Not yet at least lol
can you alocate system ram for a gpu to use?
Shared memory
No, but it automatically shares if VRAM usage goes over a certain amount
okay, so if i have a 6gb gpu, and i use all of it, it will start using some of the system ram?
Yes
I doubt you'll use all 6GB unless you're doing 4k ultra but yes
kewl, and yes im doing 4k ultra
looks at VR at low settings
š
does vr use a lot of memory?
Yes
Very much so
The textures in games like that are always incredibly high in detail, so it has to use a lot of VRAM
you think a 3070 with 8gb and 32gb system ram would still let me 4k ultra with vr?
i figured that, but isnt like 1440?
Depends on the HMD
Rift S has notoriously low resolutions
G2 has notoriously high resolutions
i thought rift s was dependant on your gpu?
Oculus Quest
But we arenāt talking about that
(And for the record, the Quest and Quest 2 still have GPUs built in)
i know they have built in gpus
Anyways, what exactly is your question anyways?
what would be a vr headset that has good resolution without breaking the bank
You can either go with Quest 2 and get a link cable or something or get an Index
No middle ground right now
And Quest 2 is Facebook which I donāt like
yeah, i was steering away from quest 2
i thought the rift s would be nice, but youre telling me otherwise
Rift S is outdated too
And more expensive than Quest
Also you would be selling your firstborn to the Zucc either way
so if i want a good vr, imma be spending liek $1k?
Yeah
VR is an expensive hobby right now
Valve plans on making it less so as soon as possible
ill be fine with my 4k monitor then lol
Yeah
well its actually a tv, but its still good
You donāt need more than one high refresh monitor
specifically the 27gn850-b and the 27gn950-b
And even on a 3070, that would kill a GPU
i know, but lg doesnt have a matching 1440p 60hz monitor
is better
