graphics-cards

[covert forge]

depends which one u get

[tender mulch]

NOt really compared to 3060TI Founders Edition but it is what it is. Also depends on what GPU you had before

Like, if you have any 2000 series GPU right now, no, it's not worth it

[covert forge]

there are 3060s that go for $330-$540

[tender mulch]

If you have a 1050TI or no GPU, it's worth it

[covert forge]

if u have $500 dollars to get a gpu wait until u can get a evga ftw3 3060ti

[acoustic ginkgo]

If you say have a failing gaming laptop with a mobile 1060, the 3060 would be worth it.

[lilac kayak]

i won the newegg shuffle for the 3060 asus tuf oc edition is it worth it?

[dawn notch]

yes

ofc

[little sleet]

if youre in need of a gpu or an upgrade, then ye. in terms of value compared to the cards out now, no

[lilac kayak]

im just thinking maybe i could try my luck for a 3070

[acoustic ermine]

Nothing stopping you from entering again

[dawn notch]

just take the 60 and be happy

i mean you coud enter both

[lilac kayak]

i guess so

[acoustic ermine]

Congrats

And if you do win again, please sell the 3060 to an actual gamer

And don't scalp

[lilac kayak]

i dont plan on it

[dawn notch]

good

[lilac kayak]

its better than what i got rn anyway

[young quarry]

Btw what is entry time for the shuffle?

[tender mulch]

nORMALLY 10 am pst

[young quarry]

Oh I am just barely missing it usually checking at 1pm eastern or 11am pst.

[tender mulch]

You can usually enter until noon PST

[valid sundial]

I seen a 970 for like 150$ cad before

[livid idol]

Was that before the current GPU scenario, like last june or something?

[valid sundial]

Literally 2 months ago

[livid idol]

Possibly a scam then, LOTS of those going around

[valid sundial]

My cousin bought it and it worked fine

[livid idol]

Just lucky then, not too bad at all

[acoustic ginkgo]

As I've said, I'll take the 3060 I won over a laptop whose life I have become worried is ending. The screen ceasing to function is a big red flag for me. (Only reason I was not down a computer altogether is the monitor I bought last year allows me to work around the dead screen)

Don't avoid the filter pls and thx

[acoustic ginkgo]

I feel the pain. I also listened to the voices chorusing "Don't buy that 2060 Super, wait."

[thorny fossil]

what? I censored it! Didn't know that wasn't sufficient. my bad

[viral kraken]

Bruh

[tender mulch]

It's OK, you know now

[viral kraken]

Imma bout to pull the amiga 5000 out of storage

[thorny fossil]

yeah I'm new here. sorry yall

[tender mulch]

LMAO

[tender mulch]

It's cool, you're not arguing with me so you're already off to a fantastic start! XD

[viral kraken]

Not even lying my first computer was a amiga

Wanna see the setup?

I’ll post in in build pics

[thorny fossil]

haha alright no more potty words i got it 🙂

[thorny fossil]

my buddy was listening to me rant about the situation and he says "don't worry man i got you." Goes into his garage and comes out with a GT240 😂

[thorny fossil]

yo thats pretty dope though. does it still run?

[viral kraken]

Gave it to a guy running a museum a year ago

It stopped working and I couldn’t find any parts for it

Sadly

It had at least $3000 worth of programs on it

Add a bunch of old printer paper and printer cartridges too

And a bunch of amiga magazines

Bruh my grandpa still rolls with a windows 93 machine

Still runs like a champ

[autumn parcel]

I tried to fire up windows 95 on a VM and forgot how low the memory amounts were back then.

It was like “2048mb ram?!? Ahhh, impossible!”

Oh the good ol’days with the Diamond Monster 3D add on card....

[autumn stone]

thats crazy the gt 710 came out after the gtx 780

[acoustic ermine]

Pfft, my first PC was a 386 25 MHz with 640kb of RAM plus the 640k extended RAM, and a positively HUGE 40 MB HDD

Installing Wing Commander II took up half my hard drive

In other words, I probably snagged my 3060 just in time?

[heady turtle]

Well tbf if they wait 2.5 years they might be able to have 6 months of stocking up for launch idk tho

[steel bough]

Some 3080’s did pop up on Best Buy website thanks to my stock alert warning too bad I was too late. They were sold out.

[karmic crag]

ltt?

[heady turtle]

Linus tech tips

[karmic crag]

ik

[karmic crag]

but what about them

[heady turtle]

Verified actual gamers

[charred remnant]

Honestly even if they could launch 40 series it doesn't make any sense to if 30 series is selling as fast as they make them.

[heady turtle]

It won't be for 2 years anyway, their not going to stop improving that would be dumb

[solemn saddle]

If I still haven't gotten a "You won" or "you lost for the 36th time!" email yet... I can probably assume I lost for the 36th time, right?

[idle slate]

probably

[livid idol]

Pretty much yeah

[solemn saddle]

managed to cop a 3070 Tuf from best buy today, at least... But still need a card for my son's computer. :/

[coarse spindle]

Still, thats better than a lot of people. Must be a lucky kid getting a nice GPU.

[stoic quest]

remember me

[karmic crag]

ah

likewise, then

shuffle is my most consistent chance tbh

this current market is demoralizing

if there was an end in sight to the madness, i'd feel slightly better

but the closest is probably 2022/23

[heady stratus]

Nvidia 2024

[fossil crow]

Hello. So the pc is doing well but i still have a feeling that i should see better graphics.. is there anything i can do?

[tender mulch]

What GPU?

[fossil crow]

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070

[tender mulch]

What game, resolution and FPS are you getting?

[fossil crow]

How do i check those?

[tender mulch]

Why do you feel like you're not getting good graphics?

[fossil crow]

I'm not sure. I guess it's tough because i don't know what to expect. I'm going from console to PC so i just feel like it should be better. I don't know if what im getting is actually what i should be getting.. if that makes sense

[coarse spindle]

@fossil crow yeah I think i see what your talking abt

What game? You know how to adjust graphics in it right?

For a 3070 almost anything works on all ultra

[fossil crow]

I have been playing kingdom come deliverance right now.

Let me see what i have set on it

Resolution 2560x1440
Overall image quality: high
Vsync on
Vertical FOV: 65

[umbral flame]

I hope I can upgrade my 3090 to 4090 soon when it releases

[normal hawk]

They lowered the price and it's still too much lol

[crisp moth]

Hey I Just downloaded the new geforce experience update and is the auto tuning gpu thing any good?

[tender mulch]

Auto overclock is really hit or miss

[crisp moth]

wdym

[tender mulch]

Sometimes it does great, sometimes it does nothing. Better to manually OC it yourself

[crisp moth]

yes I would assume

so if I turn it on

my gpu won't explode correct

[tender mulch]

IDK, it's brand new and I haven't tested it personally yet lol

Getting ready to

[crisp moth]

oh fair

[ancient oracle]

Just got my 3070, but not off newegg

Did a trade with someone on facebook for my 2060 and a bit of cash

[crisp moth]

is there any way you can get any new 30 series card

or are they still impossible to get

[ancient oracle]

still impossible @crisp moth

I would look anywhere on craigslist/facebook marketplace

[crisp moth]

yea

[ancient oracle]

Thats how I got mine

A dell oem 3070

[crisp moth]

I want a 3080 but I'll wait until demand goes down

[ancient oracle]

Good luck with that

Its gonna be a while

[crisp moth]

yup

my 2060 super will be fine for a while

[ancient oracle]

I'm happy anyways with the 3070, 3080 was wayy outta my trade limit

still beats the 2080ti

[vital leaf]

500 pounds+ a 2060?

[ancient oracle]

550 plus my 2060

US dollars

better than the 1500-1700 people were asking in my area

[vital leaf]

this guy sold his 3070 for 500 bucks+ a 2060 on FB too coincidentally

[ancient oracle]

How coincidental

I mean I'm not from the UK but he did a similar trade

The dell oem works great for me anyways, the newer cards have autoboosting anyways so I'm not missing out on performance

Plus it got good cooling and metal backplate'

[tender mulch]

nVidia GPU Auto tune taking FOREVERRRRRRR

Heh, it's pulling 242 watts now, what is this tuner doing lol

Garbage

+55 on core only

Doesn't even touch the memory -_-

DO NOT recommend

[stoic glade]

carefully, he's a hero.

[livid idol]

Yeah the auto tune didn't do much for me either when I tested it before, +72 core (lol that's not how the boost table works) and +200 memory. My manual overclock is +90/+780.

[tender mulch]

HAHAHAH!

Autotune +55 cor eonly

My tune +125 Core, +1000 mem, +1040 points in TimeSpy

Autotune poo

[livid idol]

You can run the tune multiple times and get a drastically different result each time too

[tender mulch]

Yeah, it's garbo like the rest

I was hoping for better but it didn't even touch memory :/

[livid idol]

Let me guess, Elon did another tweet with the doge pic

Happens all the time

He can manipulate the market single handed with just a picture, and he can't get busted because it's just a picture lol

[fossil crow]

@coarse spindle so there's nothing I can do?

[torpid garden]

edit and lock the v/f curve instead of lowering power limit

underclock/undervolt core, oc memory

[wary yarrow]

with my 1660s i run my core clock at -175, +700 memory clock, 64% on power limit, and 55 on my fan speeds and normally peak 30MH/s during the whole day

[heady turtle]

Voltage frequency curve, but overclock your memory and underclcock your core

[heady turtle]

What temps are you getting with 55% fan, I'd turn that up a bit because the temp you see in afterburner etc is the core temp but while mining the memory is the thing that gets hot

[normal hawk]

Crazy it's on sale

🙄

[charred remnant]

Oh wow look at this great deal! I'm sure I can trust a $351 2080Ti from wish. It's not like there's a huge markup on all GPU's now and they were $1200 at release.

-Disclaimer for anyone who doesn't get the sarcasm please do not buy any graphics card from wish. They are scamming you end of story.

[normal hawk]

Buy it. Build a pc with only cheap wish components. Post the video on YouTube. Profit

[vital pivot]

Yep

Yeah doge is hitting .38 cents now. Sheesh

[lone pond]

Just elon tweeting

[heady turtle]

Wasn't it like 16 yesterday

[vital pivot]

Mando I don’t think so.

Even Newegg is tweeting it

@heady turtle yes

[heady turtle]

Ohh dam

[vital pivot]

I bought doge with it was .001 a coin

[heady turtle]

Damm buy much of it?

[charred remnant]

Lol that's fair

[vital pivot]

@heady turtle let’s just say my profit would pay for 3090 scaler prices easily.

Scalper

[charred remnant]

... Dang

[heady turtle]

👀👀👀👀

[hollow dawn]

Do not invest or you will lose your money

[heady turtle]

Did you no read the rest of the chat lol

[wary yarrow]

i max 50-55C

[heady turtle]

I'd turn up your fans your burning your memory, that's your core temp while mining

[hollow dawn]

Ik im just saying

[wary yarrow]

VRAM is chilling at 60C, not too worried about it but if it pasts 65 ever i add 20% more on my fans

[tender mulch]

How do you know?

[heady turtle]

How are you measuring vram and a 1650 lol

You can only measure 3080 and 3090 vram with hwinfo

[wary yarrow]

hot spot temp in hwinfo

@void roostmeme a friend of mine was offered several bitcoins 3 years ago for $400

I bring up the current prices and he runs off to the corner and crys

Because he listened to people that said what you just said.

I dropped money that was budgeted for entertainment as I consider it gambling not investing.

[charred remnant]

Yea Doge will be weird to see since I think it will spike and drop for a little bit as early adopters cash out in huge amounts before people buy it up and drive prices back up

[vital pivot]

Yep

[charred remnant]

it will be interesting to see how long before it stabilizes

[vital pivot]

For the past month it was pretty much at .06 cents.

[neon laurel]

I wish I bought more at the .008 that I paid I only bought 7k doge.. lol but still sitting at +3k

[charred remnant]

Yea, my roommate is considering cashing out for about $50 of profit since he only put a couple dollars in in January.

I'm kinda annoyed that I didn't buy in a while back. I considered it but money was tighter then than it is now.

[heady turtle]

Hotspot not=mem

[heady turtle]

I mined €3.30 worth of bitcoin through nicehash in 20 back in August 2017, transferred to coinbase, forgot about it until January remembered it was there then sold it when bitcoin hit €50k a few weeks ago for €70

Yea that's fair, are you currently trying to upgrade?

[fallow vortex]

yea, well i have a temp card

my build is pretty good tho, ryzen 7 5800x 32 gigs of ram, 1tb ssd, and 1tb hard drive

currently playing games on a 1030

[charred remnant]

ah hey at least you have a temp card

[lone pond]

huh wha

when did you buy this 5800x

[fallow vortex]

2 weeks ago

at microcenter

[lone pond]

i would have just bought an 11600k

lol

[fallow vortex]

hella nice

[lone pond]

or like

10850k

[fallow vortex]

pretty nice cpu tho

my friends currently trying to get that

currently trying to get a 3080, or at this point 3090 cause prices on ebay rn for both are like 3k

[spare relic]

140 dollar 1030 very good deal thanks Newegg

[soft hawk]

What about allowing a 3rd party to sell a 1070 ti for $1,150?

[lone pond]

what res are you playing on?

[fallow vortex]

720

i can push 1080 but these 2 gigs of ram ain't gonna do well on it

[lone pond]

What res is your monitor

cuz no way in hell you bought a 720p lol

[fallow vortex]

1080 75hz

1ms

i was gonna go 1440p 165hz and 1ms but y'know

gpu's are no where to be found rn

[frozen summit]

If I don't want to fight for a 30 series and any of the brand new AMD graphics cards (6700XT etc.)

Question: What's the best attainable purchase for a graphics card option out there today? (or is this an empty question)

[calm crow]

Ahh same

[frozen summit]

[calm crow]

if you have money just pay scalper price

[tender mulch]

Mmmmmmm

[calm crow]

Also what Rommy said

[frozen summit]

I'd rather die...

[calm crow]

same. unless I absolutely need it to keep my rig running

If it dies so does my school career

[frozen summit]

I have a rx480 with a i5-3570... been in need of an upgrade for a while, but i did scoop up a R7 5800x

games are starting to only able to run at low quality... which is frustrating 😦

[fallow vortex]

oh hella nice

[frozen summit]

thanks for the confidence. How does one get the LTT confirmations?

do I just have to watch and wait for a video to drop? I've never done it before but heard about it

also how do they verify the VAG's? Steam profile

seems like a silly gatekeeping thing? idk just curious

[calm crow]

Yeah how does the ltt work

[buoyant galleon]

so i havent even bothered checking recently but now its looking like the 3080 Ti 20gb was scrapped for a 12gb?

[fallow vortex]

thats how its lookin like

[frozen summit]

awesome help dude. Im just a lonely gamer boi like all the rest of us trying to scrape by and just grab 1 card for our rig

I'll keep my eye out on LTT video drops and be sure to watch the full thing and try and pay attention. 😄

[charred remnant]

[copper plover]

I laugh at the PSU bundled in the shuffle today with the RTX3090 hmmm

[charred remnant]

lol what psu?

[copper plover]

750W

[charred remnant]

lollll

[copper plover]

Maybe for that card alone if it could

[charred remnant]

I think it technically meets the min spec, but the 3090 will probably repeatedly trip the over current protection. making it unusable

[copper plover]

yeah

[charred remnant]

I do think its funny though that min spec for psu on the 3090 is technically 750W, when I asked for psu recommendations on a 3070 a while back and was strongly recommended 750W lol

[karmic crag]

i have 550w for my future 3070/3060ti

😎

[calm crow]

i have a 750 for my future 3060ti

[lucid karma]

The 3090 with the PSU is a scary bundle

[vital pivot]

Ironically. I own a EVGA 2080ti FTW3 Ultra and I purchased it at retail on Amazon for $1500 before tax and shipping.

Seeing the replacement going for $600+ is sad

[hybrid kettle]

I mean for 3060ti that wouldn’t be too bad, especially if you had lower power cpu and platinum psu

Probably even gold psu

[summer condor]

so 80+ cert doesnt matter

even if its bronze, if its good quality its good quality

even plat's can blow up

[mild ruin]

Hey guys, I have a Radeon that's starting to have some artifacting issues and a screen flicking on one of 3 screens. 6900xt and using an 850w PS, which is the minimum spec. I used DDU to wipe the drivers out and it's been kinda wonky since putting it in a couple weeks ago. Question is does this lean towards a failing card or could this be a PSU or driver issue?

[halcyon plover]

Might be unstable oc

Did you overclocked your gpu?

[mild ruin]

Haven't overclocked anything at all. It's a fresh build so wanted to ensure everything was stable for a bit before doing anything like that.

[tender mulch]

Artifacting is usually vram related

Might be power

What psu exactly?

[mild ruin]

Enermax rev DF 850?

[halcyon plover]

Your gpu temps are good?

And vram temps

[mild ruin]

I'd have to revisit but I don't think they were out of line. Only running @ 1080 at the moment

So it's not getting beat up all that bad

[tender mulch]

Should be fine

Try a different cable?

[mild ruin]

For the flicker? I could give it a shot, sure but artifacting nah. The REALLY bad artifacting is coming out of an older CoD, WaW. With Eyefinity going, it plays on all 3 screens (dizzying) and they're all the same.

I dropped you a PM so you can see the mess lol

[tender mulch]

Huh

That seemsblike a diver issue tbh

Ddu and reinstall?

[mild ruin]

Worth a shot. The 19 AMD drivers any better than the 20 series ones?

I have an EVGA 1kw that just came in too that I can swap in. i7-11 is also in it with a little unicorn puke, so I figured an upgrade may be worth it regardless.

[tender mulch]

Well if the fans have failed it might be temp related idk for sure though

Nah df just fine

Dont swap psus

[zenith lagoon]

@livid idol Pc still restarting, I have a power inverter that goes into my car, and I can plug my PC into there

To see if it still shuts off.

Could it also be the powercord of my psu tho?

I would be able to check with my volt meter if it is even being ground.

[heady turtle]

Good luck rommy

[livid idol]

Check the max amperage on that inverter, you'll want at least 5A

[zenith lagoon]

Ok

Let me check right nkw

Ots 700w max

Its*

[livid idol]

Probably isn't the cord, that's just a piece of wire with shielding

[zenith lagoon]

What what about the ground wire?

Inside the cord.

[livid idol]

That should do it, 700W at 115v is over 5 amps

[zenith lagoon]

Alri

And is it safe running prime 95?

While the inverter is plugged into my car.

[livid idol]

I've never once seen the wire be the problem

[foggy moth]

I need help, some 3070 and 6800xt are in the price and I'm wondering what of that two buy

[zenith lagoon]

Ah

[livid idol]

Yes just make sure the engine is running

[zenith lagoon]

Yea.

[livid idol]

Whichever you have a chance at buying

[zenith lagoon]

Would the psu overheating, cause the psu to turn off?

If the fan might not be working.

[foggy moth]

If I have chance to buy both?

[livid idol]

If the fan isn't spinning that would certainly cause overheating, and that's an instant warranty claim

[zenith lagoon]

Yea.

Well I never checked

I should tho.

[crisp ocean]

I would go 3070 but my games favorite nvidia

Plus I like their content creator software

[zenith lagoon]

But if I run prime 95 is there a risk in damaging something?

[crisp ocean]

And nvidia reflex

[charred remnant]

I would go 3070 just because I would want to mess with ray tracing and ray tracing is much better on rtx than amd

[zenith lagoon]

But jverheating can also cause it to restart correct @livid idol ?

[crisp ocean]

Raytracing is such a bad gimmick lowkey

[livid idol]

If you plan on streaming go 3070, otherwise 6800XT

[charred remnant]

Idk I'm upgrading from a gtx 650 it seems neat.

[crisp ocean]

It’s supported in few games and is cool for about a day

[charred remnant]

granted I also thought it said 6700XT not 6800XT

[zenith lagoon]

I should check if the fan is even spinning..

[livid idol]

Overheating would cause instant shutoff

[zenith lagoon]

Yea.

[zenith lagoon]

If I run prime 95 will it damage anything?

[livid idol]

Assuming the protections are working right
No p95 is totally safe

[zenith lagoon]

Ok

[livid idol]

Raytracing is still in its infancy, it has the potential to revolutionize gaming.
For now though, you're right it's a fun gimmick.

[crisp ocean]

Keyword potential

As of now buying a card solely for ray tracing is typically not worth it

[livid idol]

Yes, like any potential it needs to be harnessed properly

[zenith lagoon]

Like the pc boots up fine.

I can run prime 95 again

And becuase it uses more power.

Check if my pah fan even spins..

[livid idol]

Yes

Not necessarily, it's either the house power still (the previous problem that was supposedly fixed) or the power supply

[spare relic]

Give it a minute to warm up and trigger the fan, but if it shuts off before it turns on that's your culprit and you warranty claim that

There is a lot of heat from the psu.

But I didnt see the fans move once.

During that prime 95.

Oh shoot

Burning smeel

Form osu

Turning oc off

Turned it off.

[livid idol]

It only loads 100 at a time

[zenith lagoon]

I went close to smell it.

There is a smell

O no.

[hybrid kettle]

Fan could be bad

And therefore probably have to return psu

[livid idol]

Yep that's a dead fan, RMA time

[spare relic]

What psu

[zenith lagoon]

But there should NEVER be a smell coming from psu right?

[hybrid kettle]

No not really

Especially not burning

[spare relic]

Brand new psu smell

Sniff sniff

Like an old book

[zenith lagoon]

And I think becuase the psu gets to hot, it sometimes it doesn't even restart, it just restart loops.

Falcie what do you think?

[hybrid kettle]

#graphics-cards message

[zenith lagoon]

Yea fan was definitely NOT spinning.

[hybrid kettle]

What psu

[zenith lagoon]

Corsair 750 w RMX

Good pau good companu

Sometimes these things just happen.

Its the psu.

[hybrid kettle]

Yeah

[zenith lagoon]

I can smell something

[daring ivy]

anybody got any results on the shuffle

[zenith lagoon]

And the fan wasn't spinning.

[hybrid kettle]

Generally, if the results are from 2 pst to 8 pst, you should get results right after 2, or right after 4

[daring ivy]

anyone whos won ahything yet?

rip

[zenith lagoon]

Should I turn on again?

And test

Again..

[hybrid kettle]

No

[zenith lagoon]

With p 95

[hybrid kettle]

Just rma

[zenith lagoon]

I'm like 99% sure the fan wasn't spinning.

The line that is on the psu fan in the center.

[hybrid kettle]

Don’t risk damage to other components

[zenith lagoon]

Is on the exact same spot.

[abstract narwhal]

I’d check you psu manual those fans won’t kick on till using a certain amount of watts

[spare relic]

Are you gonna stop and rma or are you gonna fry your computer

[zenith lagoon]

No

Rma

Rn

RMA this psu

I have a feeling it's not just the fan..

[spare relic]

Let the rma dept find out

[zenith lagoon]

Yea.

[abstract narwhal]

Your rm750x the fan won’t start spinning till you hit 300 watts

[zenith lagoon]

At least I get it back in a few days.

[zenith lagoon]

It went way past that.

Ik they are 0 rpm

[abstract narwhal]

My 850 doesn’t start spinning till 350 watts

[zenith lagoon]

Plus there is a smell.

[livid idol]

It was hit with prime 95, if anything will trigger the 12v rail to heat up it's that

[zenith lagoon]

Yea.

I did the maximum power

But remember last time falcie.

I did it and It turned off faster.

@abstract narwhal we already knew that it was a power problem, we just needed to figure out if it was the psu or home power.

[abstract narwhal]

I’d do a rma if your fan doesn’t spin over 300 watts. Good luck 👍

[zenith lagoon]

Yea.

[acoustic ginkgo]

Still, in the current market? A failed PSU is easier to replace than a GPU

[zenith lagoon]

Yea.

True

[heady turtle]

Mood

[zenith lagoon]

@livid idol So then is it just the PSU?

Already in the processes of RMAing it.

[livid idol]

That's a near certainty by this point, since everything else seems to work until you put extended load on it

[zenith lagoon]

Yea.

Also

Its definitely the psu.

It shut off twice with p 95.

Once before when you told me to test it

The home power is now fixed.

Its the psu.

Your right.

I will rma

Has anyone done an RMA on a corsair PSU?

How long does it take for a replacement?

Do I have to include the osu cables bag as well @livid idol ?

Psu*

[livid idol]

Every brand has different instructions for that, just read carefully.
Once I sent a phone in and was told to remove the battery, but I left the back cover on. I never saw that back cover again.

[zenith lagoon]

Ah ok

[random fern]

Anyone know how to fix fps in warzone with a 3090 running lower than it should? Apparently it's common?

[zenith lagoon]

Thanks, now it also makes sense why my psu filter has like no dust onit

[hybrid kettle]

drivers?

[random fern]

No

[hybrid kettle]

Do you have them installed

[lone pond]

The GT 710 are the only graphics cards in stock at anyplace I look for reasonable price I feel like giving into just getting it to have a graphics card

[heady turtle]

If you have a non f intel cpu it's not an upgrade, if it's an 11th gen cpu probs a downgrade

[lone pond]

I don’t even have a PC yet

[dreamy dragon]

R̶̫̚ů̴̅n̵̋͝k̶̄̒#5529 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[lone pond]

-.-

[heady turtle]

Just get an 11500 better off

[lone pond]

I’m not switching CPUS I’m set

[woeful perch]

try ebay for a 1060 or a rx 570

[lone pond]

I found something on Facebook market place

It’s a little ways away but my mom sent them a message

[random fern]

Of course. Uninstalled. Reinstalled. Wiped. Reinstalled

[warped carbon]

Currently, I have a GTX 1060 3gb. On most games the card performs fine such as Rocket League. But on some more demanding games such as Fortnite or Warzone, it begins to suffer. If I turn around too fast, my FPS falls and I lag. Would getting the 1060 6gb definitely provide me the smoother experience for Warzone?

[sacred tendon]

Hello! I currently have an msi rx580 and was wondering if there are any better upgrades under $400... I think I know the answer but just wanted to make sure

[tender mulch]

EVGA 3060

[sacred tendon]

Point me into the direction to get it under 400 hahahaha

[tender mulch]

Newegg Shuffle or Best Buy Drops

[sacred tendon]

wait really??!

[tender mulch]

Everything else is overpriced right now

yeah, EVGA and I think Zotac had a cheaper 3060

[sacred tendon]

holy cow! I had no idea!

[tender mulch]

https://www.evga.com/products/ProductList.aspx?type=0&family=GeForce+30+Series+Family&chipset=RTX+3060+12GB+

[small elbow]

Good luck getting a GPU from Best Buy, I had one in the cart and as i hit the purchase button to finalize, they were sold out.

[tender mulch]

Got my 3070 there

[small elbow]

lucky, Ive been monitoring the site for a long time and no luck

[sacred tendon]

I just signed up for the shuffle but it ended today :/

[livid idol]

It goes almost every day, keep trying

[zenith lagoon]

@livid idol

I tried the corsair paper clip trick.

And the fan turns on.

So I have a feeling soemthing else might be wrong with the psu.

[livid idol]

Doesn't matter, still needs to be sent back.

[zenith lagoon]

Ok

They said if the fan is working, it works perfectly fine lol

"Functioning normally"

Oh bruh

Now the fan doesn't turn on...

[livid idol]

You told them about how it shuts off under load?

Oh lol

[zenith lagoon]

Yes.

Tff

Yea it stopped working...

Loll

[livid idol]

It ded

[zenith lagoon]

Yea.

Ded.

The fan turns 1 mm

Then turns off.

I dont feel safe around this psu anymoree

And now it turns on again...

Lolll

[livid idol]

Well at least that one isn't known to explode like some units

[zenith lagoon]

Ok so it turned on for 3 seconds

And now it stopped again.

Definitely something wrong.

It goes for a few seconds

Turns off.

And then just stops for 2 mins..

And turns on again

[weary pelican]

Just got to look up if you hooked up your wires properly to your motherboard

[zenith lagoon]

....

[weary pelican]

Ohh its your power supply lol...all i read was one fan not working lol

If the power running through most of your components...it shouldn't be your power supply...

[verbal basin]

Could be unstable power, use a pure sine wave UPS

[weary pelican]

How many watts?

[tender mulch]

Bootlooping is usually a CPU/RAM error

[zenith lagoon]

Already put in an RMA request.

[coarse spindle]

Yeah vintage is right

[zenith lagoon]

It's not a bootloop vint.

[tender mulch]

Ok

[coarse spindle]

Reseat RAM always

[zenith lagoon]

It a power issue....

[tender mulch]

Call it power cycling then

You jumpered the 24 pin and it was fine yeah?

[zenith lagoon]

yea.

Well kinda.

[tender mulch]

Define kinda

[zenith lagoon]

the fan worked, then stopped.

then I turned power ofof.

off*

then it wouldn't even spin.

[tender mulch]

GPU fan?

[weary pelican]

I thought it was a power supply issue with mine but it ended up just being my RAM not seated in properly.

[zenith lagoon]

PSU fan.

[tender mulch]

Ok, that doesn't mean much

[zenith lagoon]

Ok.

[tender mulch]

Many of them only run the fan at a certain temp, which one is it

[zenith lagoon]

750 RMX

But it's a power issue.

It has to be.

ram would give blue screen.

[tender mulch]

No

[zenith lagoon]

no?

[tender mulch]

Not if it won't post

[zenith lagoon]

It posts.

It gets into windows.

But we tested it.

with falcie

falcie.

[weary pelican]

Hmmm...

[tender mulch]

Well then why are you still asking?

If they troubleshot it and said return it, return it

[zenith lagoon]

I was asking about the RMA request.

[tender mulch]

XD

[zenith lagoon]

Yea.

Well it wouldn't be another issue right?

[tender mulch]

The 750x does have silent fan operation BTW

[zenith lagoon]

When running prime 95, it would shut off.

[zenith lagoon]

Yes, I am aware.

What what other component?

[tender mulch]

IDK, I'm not gonna go down the road again if Fal'Cie already did this

[zenith lagoon]

Because it shuts off, restarts, then it just woks fine sometimes.

[tender mulch]

I trust them, that's why they have Techie

RMA it

[zenith lagoon]

Yea.

Ok

I already put in the request.

I trust fal'cie as well

[tender mulch]

Aight

[zenith lagoon]

But now your telling me other things xD

[weary pelican]

You have another power supply to see if it is the power supply?

[zenith lagoon]

and it's making me more worried

[zenith lagoon]

No

[tender mulch]

Stop worry

[zenith lagoon]

Ok

[tender mulch]

Follow what Fal'Cie says

[zenith lagoon]

Yea.

He said RMA.

I RMAed it

Submitted the ticket.

[weary pelican]

Yeah just replace it...if it happens again then its just faulty wiring

[tender mulch]

This is the way

😉

[zenith lagoon]

Yeap

Also

Vint*

It's not a boot loop when I press the power button.

[tender mulch]

I get that

I read back through the posts

[zenith lagoon]

Yea.

Ah ok

We came to the conclusion of a power issue.

Either home power

or PSU

[tender mulch]

All I saw was
Ok so it turned on for 3 seconds
And now it stopped again.
Definitely something wrong.
It goes for a few seconds
Turns off.
And then just stops for 2 mins..
And turns on again

[zenith lagoon]

Ah yea.

That was after.

[tender mulch]

S fine

Get a new one fo free

[zenith lagoon]

yea xD

I will

Alright

ima go now

Cya bro

[wheat swallow]

I wanted to hook up an external graphics card to my desktop how would i go about this

[tender mulch]

Does your desktop have Thunderbolt or eSata?

[wheat swallow]

no

[tender mulch]

You're going to pay way more for external than internal...enclusures are a couple hundred bucks and you need a power supply for it as well

Quick browsing is $300-$400 for enclosure with PSU, you'll still need a GPU

Checking on how to connect it

[wheat swallow]

oh

could i use like a riser cable then runa seaprate psu

[tender mulch]

That's a possibility as well, you'll need a jumper for the PSU 24 pin connector

not enough room in your case?

[wheat swallow]

ya not enough room in case as uses itx psu the long one

[tender mulch]

Gotcha

I think the riser cable with external PSUI is a much more viable option

Just keep in mind PCI-E risers and Gen 4 Motherboards and GPU's don't play nice, need to manually set the slot to GEN 3 mode

[wheat swallow]

is it ok to post links like form newegg here?

[tender mulch]

Sure if you're level 3

[wheat swallow]

oh

i just started

[tender mulch]

yeah, still level one

[wheat swallow]

ya

the 6 pin for the graphics card is the power from the psu if i set an extra one up correct?

[tender mulch]

yep

This one is 220mm, think it's long enough? https://www.newegg.com/phanteks-ph-vgpukt-02-black/p/N82E16811984028?Description=phanteks riser&cm_re=phanteks_riser-_-11-984-028-_-Product

That's about 8"

[wheat swallow]

yaa i was looking at that what do i do about power i have a 260 watt psu is a 10 pin

[tender mulch]

Depends on the GPU you get

300W should be more than enough

[wheat swallow]

oh ok

they have an option for a 380 psu the desktop

is 73 bucks

[tender mulch]

Depends on the GPU you decide to get

And how many PCI-E connectors it has

and what type

[wheat swallow]

kind of wanted a aftermarket one though because of upgradeability

[tender mulch]

Get a GPU first

XD

Then worry about the rest TBH

[wheat swallow]

not going for nothing extravagnat the pc is kind of a throw away

[tender mulch]

I get that

[wheat swallow]

just a temp one

[tender mulch]

But the GPU market is absolutely silly right now

Like, 980TI going for $300

[wheat swallow]

yes it is i notcied

[tender mulch]

SO, I'd say get the GPU first, then we can work out the rest

Either way it's possible with a riser cable

and external PSU for $50

or less

SO figure another $60 for Riser and external PSU

[wheat swallow]

i found a riser that has 6 pin adapter but it connects pci ex 1

[tender mulch]

Yeah, those are for mining

Not what you need at all

You need what I linked you, the full x16 PCI-E cable

[wheat swallow]

do they make those with a pwoer port

like th emining one

[tender mulch]

No

Because some power comes up the cable

If the GPU needs more, you need external power

The mining ones need external power as well

The 6 pin there is just for the slot power

[wheat swallow]

oh ok so if i get a card with the riser cable i would just have to swap out psu

[tender mulch]

Not necessarily swap it out, just add one to the mix

[wheat swallow]

right

[tender mulch]

yep!

Then there's a jumper you'll need to do when you start the PC to power the GPU

[wheat swallow]

so the psu would just pwoer through the 6 or 8 pin connector on the graphics card?

[tender mulch]

Yep

[wheat swallow]

how does the pwoer work as far as the pci express slot goes it dont gain any without ?

[tender mulch]

Um, well, it still gets 75W of power from the motherboard but if it has external power connectors you need an external power supply

[wheat swallow]

so id still have to swap out psu?

[tender mulch]

Not necessarilyl swap, add one for just the GPU

[wheat swallow]

thanks for the help

[tender mulch]

YW

[twilit thunder]

Help someone. I need a 1650 super, 580 or 570, or a 1660 (non ti) but I can’t find anything below $300 anyone know of anywhere with better prices?

[tender mulch]

Nope

[calm crow]

No. They don’t exist unless you can find a seller on eBay , local, or a buddy

Crazy just now getting my email of denial

[tender mulch]

yeah, that's kinda normal TBH

[lone pond]

would ambient temperatures have a significant impact on performance? Its been higher 70s lately and im noticing that it might be lacking what it used to. I have a mod in beat saber that will only start my level when above 70 fps, in the past 2 days it takes 4-5 trys to even start my level.

[tender mulch]

Possibly, yes, depends on GPU temps and when the core stops or lowers boosts

[lone pond]

Even around a 20 degree difference? I read 50-60 in game anyways but it has been idling at 40

i used to idle at around 20

[tender mulch]

Depends. Higher outside temps = higher inside the case temps too

If you want to test, take the side panel off or open it

[lone pond]

Okay thanks, would it also be a good idea to just run without my side panel for as long as its hot outside if i dust enough

[tender mulch]

Sure! Not gonna hurt anything. See if that affects temps or not. If it does, consider changing case fan speeds or configurations

[lone pond]

Appreciate it

[tender mulch]

YW

[mild ruin]

Hey Vin! DDU’d the drivers again and reinstalled. Still some driver hang issues but the artifacts are gone. Temps are well within range (53 @ idle: 85c @ load) and fans are running. Fingers crossed but things look good so far.

[tender mulch]

Sweet!!!

[mild ruin]

Boom! Thx brotha

[tender mulch]

YW

[elfin parrot]

I just bought a xc3 3070 for 750

[fading ivy]

nice

[elfin parrot]

off fb

[tender mulch]

Man

I paid $559 for mine :/

[fading ivy]

a bit of a cringe price nate

but at least you got it

[tender mulch]

I mean, a little over current prices but not bad

[fading ivy]

not bad definitely

at least it's not like 1,200 lol

[elfin parrot]

Oh I already have a buyer for 1200

[tender mulch]

Rude

[elfin parrot]

hey money is money

[magic wing]

Dont mean you rob a bank for it.

Whats wrong is wrong, doesn’t matter legally or ethically

[fading ivy]

Bruh

[brave violet]

nice catch @turbid monolith

[brave violet]

Nice buy

[elfin parrot]

when you're trying to buy a car at 17

while working at subway

[fading ivy]

ah

[elfin parrot]

you want to make some extra ez moeny

[fading ivy]

i can't blame you that much really

good luck getting a car

[elfin parrot]

tyty

[calm crow]

What a shame.

Support the cause just don’t support the method. Good luck on the car but I hate that you scalp

[fading ivy]

yeah

[bitter jungle]

hey do you guys know if MSI 1070 Ti Titanium fans will work on a normal MSI 1070 Gaming X? They look the same but im not totally positive

[rancid reef]

hola

[lone pond]

what graphics card is not over the top (3090) and also not outdated (1660)???

[dark pier]

3080

3070

3060Ti

3060

is this a serious question lol

[random basin]

Does anyone know what graphics cards are compatible with an intel i5+ for cheap and where to get it

I have two PCs that dont have graphic cards

[lone pond]

@tender mulch 53F outside and its pretty cool in my room compared to earlier and im still getting the same thing in beat saber. I dont have lots of heavy fps games to test out and i didnt save any of my old benchmarks to see if its my gpu

[timber scroll]

Huge shortage rn

[random basin]

Why is there a shortage?

[timber scroll]

something about mining I hardly know myself

[nimble swallow]

Lots of demand from everyone cuz we all at home and working from home

Too much demand not enough supply

[random basin]

Oh ok

[young quarry]

Any gpu that is available near msrp that is decent?

Decent more referring to price to preformace

[wary owl]

I believe about 2 or 3 months ago I came in here and asked if I should get a used 2080 super for 500. I was told I would be paying too much and I should wait. Whoever gave me that advice, I'm not your friend anymore.

[young quarry]

Or should I just wait I have a evga 750 ti ftw.

Upgrading everything else right now moving to a 10900kf. From a 4690k.

[timber scroll]

Even I have been looking for one for my pc but no luck

[timber scroll]

lmao

[heady turtle]

Have you bought 10900kf? If not why would you move to that? If you need more cores on the cheap get a 10850k and if you don't get an 11400 or 56/800x

[young quarry]

Got it for 330 and want extra cores as I might need them for cs classes

[heady turtle]

Fair enough, 330 is pretty good, did you get 2nd hand?

[young quarry]

No got it from microcenter week or two ago mom was flying to California had her stop for it.

[heady turtle]

Nice

[vital leaf]

Titanium has two 100mm fans

gaming X has two 95mm fans

not sure if it has enough clearance for 5mm more

[young quarry]

Looks like they move the price up to 380 guess I got it when it was cheap.

[lone pond]

rtx 20 series

[blissful roost]

Any Rtx 3060 that's not $1000 atm ?

[lone pond]

nah

[blissful roost]

Darn...hey Linus any tech tips by any chance ?

[normal hawk]

More 3080 ti leaks

[heady turtle]

You'd think they'd balance out supply of the rest of the products first lol

[novel crater]

Yea

[cerulean cargo]

Hi

[young quarry]

Should I try and get a 3060 ti evga xc for 570 local store seems to be easiet to get the card at but thats over msrp by a bit.

[halcyon plover]

Thats good price

There is no msrp

[young quarry]

Evga has prices on its web site. Is that not msrp?

[halcyon plover]

It is but i mean no one is selling them for that price

[drowsy kiln]

There were import tarrifs that we're put in place so everything is a lot different then "MSRP" 3060-ti MSRP was $400 iirc

Retails sell for $500 or something here in the states because of the tarrifs

[young quarry]

Ok

[heady turtle]

Nothing but the fe cards are msrp

[lone pond]

A GTX 970 for $180 used is that good price ?

[heady turtle]

I mean no but might be an okay price rn considering everything else

[lone pond]

It’s good enough for me, it’s the only thing that I’ve found that I can afford

[heady turtle]

Idk what's good enough for you?

[spare relic]

Better price than mine was

[hollow dawn]

Are 750ti worth for a budget?

[drowsy kiln]

Depends what you can get it for

[hollow dawn]

$70

[granite obsidian]

Its alright as a temporary card or optiplex upgrade

[hollow dawn]

Yeah for temporary

[fading ivy]

yeah

[hollow dawn]

Just to run a i3 9100f

[tender mulch]

wait what

That has an iGPU

[hollow dawn]

And then upgrade

[granite obsidian]

No it doesnt

[tender mulch]

no, it's an F lol

more coffee

-_-

[granite obsidian]

Lol

[hollow dawn]

What?

Lol

Yeah its an F

No graphics integrated

[tender mulch]

Yup

Need my coffee IV this morning, oof

[hollow dawn]

Haha

[brisk swan]

Buy a 11 gen cpu

[brisk swan]

Use uhd 750

Better than 750ti

11600k is a good deal

Or 10600k

[hollow dawn]

What?

[lone pond]

11500 is always gonna be a better option for anything worse than 1060 this gen

[brisk swan]

Hmmm. Yup

[hollow dawn]

But I have everything I just need a gpu

[brisk swan]

Ops

[lone pond]

budget?

[hollow dawn]

Yes

[lone pond]

is the 9100f in return period

[brisk swan]

You had to ask someone before buying

[hollow dawn]

I pid 60 dollars for it brand new

[rocky plume]

The tariffs should be about 20%. So it's almost like we're paying the VAT tax Europeans have been stuck with for years.

[lone pond]

when

did u buy it

[brisk swan]

Return it if you can . Where were you buy it?

[hollow dawn]

From a guy here in town

[brisk swan]

A shop?

[hollow dawn]

Im not keeping this

I’ll sell it later

[brisk swan]

Sell it now coz you are going to waste money.

[lone pond]

550 ti or bettert

[brisk swan]

What is your mobo?

[brisk swan]

?

[hollow dawn]

Gigabyte B365m

[brisk swan]

Ok wll not sell it

Coz if you want to go with 10 or 11 gen you have to cjange the mobo

[hollow dawn]

Im selling the tower not just the cpu

[brisk swan]

And it cost you around 220 bucks

[lone pond]

mobo is 75?

wdym

[brisk swan]

Nah if he wants to buy z 490

[hollow dawn]

I’ve been buying new stuff from people out here i paid $50 for the mobo

[brisk swan]

Hmm. You want to use it or sell it?

The pc i mean

[hollow dawn]

Sell it

Thats the plan

[lone pond]

huh?

its 11500

z490 would be dumb

[brisk swan]

I meant for the 10600k

[lone pond]

11500 or better

10600k has inferior iGPU

[brisk swan]

Yup .but he wants to sell it

Dont matter

[hollow dawn]

[lone pond]

it does

[brisk swan]

Hmmm. Ok you want a gpu?

[lone pond]

that 9100f will bottleneck if he ends up putting a 30 series to inflate the value of the tower

[brisk swan]

He wants to put a 750 ti

[lone pond]

do whatever

just a money pit

[brisk swan]

I said its a waste of meney.

But he has already buy the parts.

So

If you can go with a radon card.

[hollow dawn]

$180 for CPU, Mobo and 750 ti?

[brisk swan]

Budget for gpu?

[hollow dawn]

Thats the price for a 550 rn

[brisk swan]

70?

[hollow dawn]

Yeah

[brisk swan]

Ok

[hollow dawn]

$70 for the 750 ti

[granite obsidian]

You can probably sell it for 100+ on ebay

[hollow dawn]

Well what?

[brisk swan]

Ok i think 750ti is good

But i dont think anyone buy the pc from you. Lol

[hollow dawn]

Here where I live they do

Lol

Even 660 twin forze or something like that

[heady turtle]

B560 always unless a k cpu

[drowsy kiln]

You would be surprised, if you find deals and build systems and post them on your local used market a lot of people will send you messages about it. Especially here in 2021 where GPU prices are horrible.

Mhm, last night sold a Ryzen 5 2600 and RX 580 8gb system for $625. I originally bought the system with a 1070ti for $600. So kept the 1070ti and profited $25 cash.

It's such an easy way to make money if you learn how much things sell for.

Got an Asus Strix 2080 super that I can get here for 650. Should I pull the trigger?

[brisk flame]

2080 super for 650?

[calm crow]

Sheeeeeeesh. Personally I would

[brisk flame]

sounds like a scam

thats below msrp

[calm crow]

if it’s in person

strictly in person.

Ebay for sure a scam.

[brisk flame]

you would have to be clueless to sell a 2080 super for 650

[drowsy kiln]

Yea if its in-person bring a system to test it in

[brisk flame]

or its defective

[calm crow]

Or your fighting scalpers

[hollow dawn]

[charred remnant]

[hollow dawn]

[charred remnant]

[hollow dawn]

Pain man

[charred remnant]

I paid $80 for my GTX 650, granted that was 6 years ago now lol

[calm crow]

That is epic and it probably had higher resell value now like a mad lad

[charred remnant]

Lol yea I also have to figure out what to do with my old desktop since its super dated and poorly speced. Like I would sell it but I was planning on pulling a lot out of it like the heatsink and drives so it wouldn't be a functioning pc

The Newegg shuffle has just begun.

[charred remnant]

Really on a weekend? interesting

[dull skiff]

Shuffle has a 3070 KO, 3080 Strix, 3090 Strix.

[hot folio]

I hate this current shuffle

I love the cards, I hate that they have a mobo bundled in

Like I’m almost positive my current mobo is better than the one that’s in the bundle

[stiff ruin]

Why can't they shuffle a 20 series or 16 series card
