what is msrp?

#

price it should be

#

Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price

thorn kestrel
#

oh okay

livid idol
#

"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

livid idol
#

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.

pulsar lagoon
#

Sounds good, I'll keep the safe mode part in mind šŸ‘ Thank you

#

Quick question—the Gigabyte 3060 Ti VISION was announced about month ago. Has it seen release since?

sage hill
#

Yikes

#

Thanks for letting me know

stone wraith
#

Anyone know when the next newegg shuffle coming out?

#

Or atleast an estimated time

inland hound
#

Around 10 I think

#

Oh wait

#

What time zone

tender mulch
#

10 PST

Kk thx

Is this ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 3070 a good card, or should I stand by for either Gigabyte Gaming or EVGA cards?

glad moss
#

is a gtx 1050 ti still good

buoyant cliff
fervent nest
#

i am planning on getting the gigabyte gtx 1650S anybody knows when will it be restocked?

buoyant cliff
# glad moss is a gtx 1050 ti still good

eh kinda? if you don’t plan on playing the newest games like cyberpunk then it’ll be fine for you. It’s not the greatest card out there but if that’s the only thing you can get then go for it

fervent nest
fickle ivy
#

rtx 2080 or rtx 3080?

nocturne prism
#

does anyone here have like a 1650-1660?

jagged sequoia
#

is there no newegg shuffle today?

rapid imp
#

Yes there is, Three ASUSes and a couple MSIs.

jagged sequoia
#

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 🄺

lone pond
#

is the 3070 tuf on new egg oc or not?

jagged sequoia
#

it doesn't say it's the OC model, but don't those just have a higher base clock? or are they binned

short cedar
#

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.

jagged sequoia
#

well that'll be a fun rma

short cedar
#

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.

lone pond
#

ya they have a better overclock but i dont want to buy if it doesn’t

short cedar
#

I bought it from their Ebay page, and I just keep having a hard time

jagged sequoia
#

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

short cedar
#

Anyone had to do that before? RMA a card?

rapid imp
#

I see "OC" in the box, so I'd say so.

nocturne prism
#

true

jagged sequoia
#

oh yeah, the box is like 5 images deep on the page lmao

lone pond
#

i did i saw that it said just tuf not oc edition but on the pic is say oc

#

so idk

jagged sequoia
#

should be literally no noticeable difference anyway

lone pond
#

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

jagged sequoia
#

I am channeling my entire will into this shuffle

#

I want a tuf or ko card real bad

lone pond
#

my best luck was bh they dont sell out fast at all

#

thats where i got my 5600x

waxen mica
#

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

tender mulch
#

2080 still hecka decent to be honest

molten remnant
#

Shuffle for the win

fickle ivy
#

but its soo much price

molten remnant
#

Hoping to get the 3070 TUF as well

#

Just wish sanctions hadn’t driven the price up so much

fickle ivy
#

when will be cheaper ?

molten remnant
#

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

fickle ivy
#

will there be sales

molten remnant
#

Don’t know

#

I’d assume at like the major sale times Black Friday and such

fickle ivy
#

fck

waxen mica
fickle ivy
#

but 2080 should be like 60 fps for most games

nocturne prism
#

depends on the game ofc

fickle ivy
#

well for people that didnt buy a **ultrathiccc **monitor

waxen mica
#

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

jagged sequoia
#

I was on a 970 until a few months ago, he can deal with 1080p medium settings :p

lone pond
molten remnant
#

Ahhh

pretty sure the GPUs are just assembled in china

#

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

inland hound
#

What CPU do you have?

little sleet
#

to post youd need a cpu with a gpu in it like for intel a non k skew

lone pond
#

Ryzen 9 3900xt

tender mulch
tender mulch
inland hound
lone pond
#

Are there like special CPUs that act like a graphics card

inland hound
#

They have GPUs in them

lone pond
#

Ohh

inland hound
#

Not particularly special tho

lone pond
#

Thx

inland hound
#

Before you go and buy one, the GPU in it sucks

tender mulch
#

Just wait for GPU to show up

lone pond
#

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

inland hound
#

Not at all

#

Just prepare for bottlenecks

#

Your GPU is going to keep the system back for a little while

tender mulch
lone pond
#

Ok thank you šŸ‘ŒšŸ’Æ

#

Bottlenecks just means somethings will perform better than others right?

solar mist
#

bottleneck is when something limits the performance of another

lone pond
#

Ok thxšŸ’Æ

inland hound
#

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

lone pond
#

Ok so if i use the old one then when i install the new gpu when it comes using the old one wouldn’t affect anything negatively correct?

inland hound
#

Don’t 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

lone pond
#

But when i install the 3070 when it comes then everything should be fine using the 1060 shouldn’t ļæ¼affect anything right

tender mulch
#

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

lone pond
#

Ok then everything should be good

tender mulch
#

Yep!

#

Oh, one more note

#

Use two individual power cables for the 3070

#

Don't use both ends from one cable

lone pond
#

Really ok thx

tender mulch
#

Yes

lone pond
#

Does that make it perform better

tender mulch
#

Each PCI-E power cable can supply roughly 200 watts, the card needs 225 or more

lone pond
#

Ohh ok thank you

tender mulch
#

YW

lone pond
#

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

tender mulch
#

Ahhhhh

#

Yes, there should be two separate power cables from the Power supply to the GPU

inland hound
tender mulch
#

3070?

#

Nah

inland hound
#

Some use an 8 and 6 pin

tender mulch
#

Ah

#

Yeah, two separate cables

inland hound
#

I’ve only seen one that uses 8 and 8

tender mulch
#

WHich one?

inland hound
#

I think Asus?

#

Can’t remember

tender mulch
#

Cuz my XC3 does

#

so does the FTW3

inland hound
#

Oh yeah

#

MSI and EVGA do as well

tender mulch
#

I think most do TBH

inland hound
#

Everyone else does either a single 8 pin or 8+6

#

My Vision OC does 8+6

#

Which arrived today but I’m in Denver Sadge

tender mulch
#

Really

#

Interesting

inland hound
#

FE technically uses an 8 pin

#

Just one

#

Well

#

I suppose that’s not entirely accurate

#

But you can use it with just one 8 pin because of the proprietary connector

tender mulch
#

Holy crap

#

My 2060 I put on Ebay last night

#

542 page views as of now

#

O.o

inland hound
#

I’m sure it’s 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

lone pond
#

My 3070 has 2 8 pins so should i use two individual pci-e from the power supply

inland hound
#

Yes

#

Which 3070 btw?

#

@lone pond

lone pond
#

The asus tuf

lone pond
#

ThxšŸ’Æ

inland hound
#

The TUF OC is an odd one

#

2 large fans

#

Are they any good? Haven’t seen any cooling benchmarks

jagged sequoia
#

tuf has 3 unless you're talking 16 series

inland hound
#

No?

#

The 3070?

jagged sequoia
#

yeah

inland hound

I didn't win the Newegg GPU lottery. Second round lost. The search continues...

jagged sequoia
#

I've only ever won it for cpus I ended up not really wanting

rapid imp
#

^
Same, at least for the 5800x. I skipped going past checkout.

jagged sequoia
#

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

rapid imp
#

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.

jagged sequoia
#

no win for me either, heck

#

I really want a tuf or ko card 😭

rapid imp
#

All we can do is soldier on.

inland hound
#

Slappy

If you win another 5800x, sell it to me

3060tis are on the shuffle?

The shuffle is goated, I copped a 3070 vision awhile ago

livid idol
#

Next round of entries should open at 10 PST, winners notified around 3:30

karmic crag

there's no 3060s in the shuffle peepoSadSip

livid idol
#

Try again another day then. GPUs are still really hard to come by.

round crown
#

try on bb

karmic crag
#

bb just dropped on tues, meaning they likely won't have another drop until at least the 23rd

livid idol
#

The stock in the shuffle changes every day.
And yeah I saw it on Tuesday in the shuffle so it might be a bit.

yep true

#

when does newegg typically drop 3060tis?

I need the 3070 FE

karmic crag
#

iirc someone mentioned everyday at 6:00 ish but that was just said in passing

tender mulch
#

Newegg used to drop then

#

before the Shuffle started

karmic crag
#

ah i see

#

so no more consistent drops then?

tender mulch
#

Just the SHuffle

faint zealot
#

bestbuy dropped on tuesday

#

i grabbed a 3070 TUF, then canceled my order :p

tender mulch
#

Their drops have also been unreliable lately. Fridays or Tuesdays, hopefully they get regular again

faint zealot
#

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

livid idol
#

Too bad you can't sell on here, I'm sure someone would love to grab that

faint zealot
#

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

pulsar lagoon
#

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

livid idol
#

Happy accident I guess 🤣

tender mulch
#

Hope your PSU is beefy lol

faint zealot
#

thats the thing lol i only have a 650W SFX PSU

pulsar lagoon
#

LOL that's what I said as well. And I got an 850

faint zealot
#

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

pulsar lagoon
#

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

faint zealot
#

ya i upgraded at the end of 2019 but kept my gpu from my previous build

#

which was the 1070

pulsar lagoon
#

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 šŸ˜‚

faint zealot
#

ya i ended up waiting till the 20 series was over, sat on the 1070

pulsar lagoon
#

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

i dont use a my PC that much due to going between 2 households. have a ps5 at one and my PC at another

ryzen 5000 is amazing

livid idol
#

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.

faint zealot
#

i have a ryzen 2700x and like it but i bought it in 2019

livid idol
#

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

raw vector
#

what cpu

livid idol
#

5800X

faint zealot
#

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

faint zealot
#

havent looked into it

#

um

tender mulch
#

A320, nah

livid idol
#

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!

faint zealot
#

b450i aorus pro wifi amd socket

tender mulch
#

Yewah, you can use 5000 series if you update BIOS first

faint zealot
#

cool, might consider it, doesn't seem necessary atm but wanted to look into it

livid idol
#

No rush of course, if you don't feel the need to upgrade you don't have to.

#

james what gpu do u got

livid idol
#

Just know that you CAN when you so choose.

OH

You'd def see an improvement with a 5000 series

yep

100%

faint zealot
#

ive been debating to go for a 3080 but would need to upgrade my PSU

#

only have a 650SFX

livid idol
#

Upgrade the CPU before the GPU, unless you're playing on dual 4k monitors

raw vector
#

^

faint zealot
#

not going to do 4k atm

tender mulch
#

Even a 5600x would be an upgrade

livid idol
#

3070 is overkill for 1080, even 1440 doesn't use it fully

just upgraded to a 3440x 1440p ultra wide

raw vector

is it 144hz

faint zealot

had a 1080p 144hz that i use a second screen now and no i compromised on a 100hz 3400 x 1440p

only 100 hz tho

#

try oc that thing to 120hz or somethin

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

bold shadow
#

dp not hdmi

#

you might need dp for 165hz

livid idol
#

Yeah, depending on the HDMI version of the monitor, the cable, and the GPU the HDMI spec version itself could be the problem

tender mulch
#

For HDMI, need at least 2.0

#

Card, cable and monitor

livid idol
#

The R9 380 supports HDMI 2.0 so either the cable or the monitor is limiting

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

Its not normal but it is fixable.

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.

green harness
#

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

Ray tracing is a different story but you should be fine with it

Very curious question—what 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?

scarlet lance
#

it's a more powerful card

tender mulch
#

4K gaming and Ray Tracing at any resolution

round crown
#

3070 is kinda bad bang for buck

#

and 3080 is quite more powerful

rapid imp
#

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?

tender mulch
#

High FPS ray tracing at 1440p

#

Into the future

rapid imp
#

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.

tender mulch
#

It does yes

#

CP2077 for me with RT on is 60-70 FPS

#

at 1440p

rapid imp
#

If 1440pRT60 is the peak for 3070, then so be it.

tender mulch

With RT off the FPS is so much better

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?

livid idol
#

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 don’t 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?

spare relic
#

Oh it's the thumbnail right up there

livid idol
#

Not yet at least lol

empty compass
#

can you alocate system ram for a gpu to use?

spare relic
#

Shared memory

inland hound
#

No, but it automatically shares if VRAM usage goes over a certain amount

empty compass
#

okay, so if i have a 6gb gpu, and i use all of it, it will start using some of the system ram?

inland hound
#

Yes

livid idol
#

I doubt you'll use all 6GB unless you're doing 4k ultra but yes

empty compass
#

kewl, and yes im doing 4k ultra

inland hound
empty compass
#

does vr use a lot of memory?

inland hound
#

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

empty compass
#

you think a 3070 with 8gb and 32gb system ram would still let me 4k ultra with vr?

inland hound
#

I mean

#

You aren’t exactly doing 4K in VR

#

But yes

empty compass
#

i figured that, but isnt like 1440?

inland hound
#

Depends on the HMD

#

Rift S has notoriously low resolutions

#

G2 has notoriously high resolutions

empty compass
#

i thought rift s was dependant on your gpu?

inland hound
#

All VR is

#

Such is the nature of VR

empty compass
#

except ones that have their own OS

#

like quest 2

inland hound
#

Oculus Quest

#

But we aren’t talking about that

#

(And for the record, the Quest and Quest 2 still have GPUs built in)

empty compass
#

i know they have built in gpus

inland hound
#

Anyways, what exactly is your question anyways?

empty compass
#

what would be a vr headset that has good resolution without breaking the bank

inland hound
#

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 don’t like

empty compass
#

yeah, i was steering away from quest 2

#

i thought the rift s would be nice, but youre telling me otherwise

inland hound
#

Rift S is outdated too

#

And more expensive than Quest

#

Also you would be selling your firstborn to the Zucc either way

empty compass
#

so if i want a good vr, imma be spending liek $1k?

inland hound
#

Yeah

#

VR is an expensive hobby right now

#

Valve plans on making it less so as soon as possible

empty compass
#

ill be fine with my 4k monitor then lol

inland hound
#

Yeah

empty compass
#

well its actually a tv, but its still good

inland hound
#

I use two 27ā€ TVs as my side monitors

#

And a 1440p 144hz as my main

#

Also 27ā€

empty compass
#

i just want 2 monitors, one 4k 165hz and the other 1440p 165hz

#

from lg

#

27"

inland hound
#

You don’t need more than one high refresh monitor

empty compass
#

specifically the 27gn850-b and the 27gn950-b

inland hound
#

And even on a 3070, that would kill a GPU

empty compass
#

i know, but lg doesnt have a matching 1440p 60hz monitor
