They're pretty close in performance tbh and it's quite hard to get a 3070

#

Nice how much?

hot folio
#

Just above 700

tender mulch
#

ouch

hot folio
#

That’s including tax

#

and shipping

sacred tendon
#

do you guys ever see those ebay posts where its a lot of like 100 cards and they sell them for like $80,000??? Like what you just have a warehouse in NY filled with cards?????

harsh sedge
#

Thanks, I appreciate the quick responses. It seems like a moot question anyway, I have tried getting one through the shuffle for a few months with 0% success

heady turtle
tender mulch
#

No

#

scalper

timber pebble
#

what lol

tender mulch
#

That card is grossly overpriced from a scalper

timber pebble
#

o ok

tender mulch
#

$299 msrp

timber pebble
#

yea i was just searching to see if any hidden stock was up

tender mulch
#

Those cards have been discontinued since July of last year

#

the only stock left is from scalpers or used

timber pebble
#

with the 3080 ti shipment coming in, anybody know if there is any other coming with it ?

tender mulch
#

What shipment

#

They aren't coming out until June anyway

timber pebble
#

According to what I have read people say May 30 a shipment of 3080 ti will be coming in

tender mulch
#

Been delayed

timber pebble
#

great again

#

All I want is a 3070, I would take a founders at this point

tender mulch
timber pebble
#

yea but i dont need a Power supply

#

just the card lol

tender mulch
#

Wait for Best Buy drop then :/

You could always try selling the PSU

#

Or saving it for a future build

heady turtle
hot folio
#

I mean the one you get from the bundle

#

It’s an EVGA for the RTX 3070 not gigabyte

heady turtle

#

I sold gigabyte hazard 750w tnt and kept my 3070 vision lol

heady turtle
#

The poor buyer :/

hot folio

#

My bomb... I mean gigabyte psu was DOA anyway. I'll make them send me all of their stock if I have to so there's less crap to bundle.

tender mulch
#

They have been for a long time now

hot folio
#

What’s so bad about gigabyte puss?

Oh boy

The PGM models

heady turtle

#

LITERAL bombs, that take out half the computer

hot folio
#

I would say I’m surprised but then again it’s gigabyte

lone pond
livid idol
#

Yeah they're commonly known to skimp on product quality to save a few cents

hot folio
#

As well as completely ignore their RMA requests to save money

heady turtle
halcyon plover
#

Their mbs are realy good

hot folio
#

I may just be a bit biased since they’ve burned me twice now

livid idol
#

A lot of their product lines are good, but the low end /cheap stuff...

halcyon plover
#

On the 3070 the vram is missing thermal pads but still i mine with it for more then a month no problems

heady turtle
hot folio
#

A mobo failed on me and they refused to repair it when it was under warranty. My RTX 2070 windforce started artifacting after 2 or so months and they sent it back to me 6 times without fixing it

heady turtle
halcyon plover
#

Yeah mine is less then 50 core and its around 30 ambient here

#

Hotspot is 65 max

heady turtle
halcyon plover
#

Yeah

heady turtle
hot folio
#

Yeah must be nice

livid idol
#

3070 doesn't have memory temp sensors...

heady turtle
#

Ik it's not mem tho lol

hot folio
#

How different performance wise is the EVGA rtx 3070 and a rig strix 3070?

livid idol
#

You'll be more stable and possibly higher vram clock if you add pads to your gigabyte

halcyon plover
#

@hot folio the ftw3 might be better tbh

summer condor
#

Ftw3 is sexy too

heady turtle
tender mulch
#

Strix 3070 outclocked the FTW3 when GN tested it

halcyon plover
#

Because it has more power limit

hot folio
#

It’s the FTW3 ultra

tender mulch
#

Ya

heady turtle
hot folio
#

I was looking for a strix but I got a decent deal on the ftw3

summer condor
#

With the way the ftw3 looks id rather have it anyway

heady turtle
hot folio
#

The EVGA step up program also looks pretty nice

tender mulch
#

It's a 90 day thing

#

So if something better comes out within 90 days, you can upgrade

hot folio
#

Yeah the 3080ti seems to be coming out soon

#

It already has hit New Zealand

lone pond
#

All I want is strix white 3080 or 90 uh

tender mulch
#

Just beccause someone listed it, doesn't mean it's released 😉

heady turtle
hot folio
#

But usually it means it’s coming very soon

livid idol
#

I maxed out my memory clock on my 2070, +1500 and stable enough for mining with under 2% reject

tender mulch
#

Someone found a hidden listing on a website in NZ

heady turtle
#

Suggest

hot folio
#

It’s not a hidden listing

tender mulch
#

Reliable insiders state June

hot folio
#

June is still within 90 days so it’s fine by me lmao

tender mulch
#

It's still a gamble

heady turtle
halcyon plover
#

I have seen 1400

livid idol
#

2070, not 3070

hot folio
#

I’ve seen 1400 a couple times

heady turtle

I loved my 2070

#

Such a good card

heady turtle

I wonder how much the 3080 ti will cost in sweden

halcyon plover
#

I mean 58mh or 62 doesnt realy matter

heady turtle
livid idol

You'd also boost higher on core

halcyon plover

How much do thermal pads cost?

west flax
#

Are 5800x cpus in stock in the us?

#

Was it the water cooled one for 2200?

heady turtle
#

Your 3060 up on ebay yet XD?

west flax
#

In sweden a store has abt 50+ in webstock and 4+ in every store and nobody wants to buy them so they put them on sale for $20 less

livid idol
#

Yeah the water cooled gigabyte one

halcyon plover
#

Nice thats a ok price then

I think it came with 360mm raditor

Not sure tho

There are 2 versions

heady turtle

That's not what Newegg said lol

That was a clickbait article

keen nacelle

From Toms I think

Headline number didn't even match the number in the article

I haven’t won once and I’ve been at it for about a month or so

keen nacelle

I didn't really read it I just for the notification, figured it was true because I went "yeah, no reason to lie about that"

it’s just luck of the draw

I'll return the bombs until I get a working one I can at least use on low power mode testing

Heck they even have a 3070 build going around rn for I think 1450 if I remember correctly

Yeah that's ntb but the 4% cashback bit if you go through one of these portals bit is a bit weird

Where them 3080s at

tender mulch
#

Intel 10400 outperforms 3600 in games, might be able to find that cheaper

keen nacelle
#

Yeah im just now upgrading the mobo in my build, it's cheap as heck (b450mh) so hoping to upgrade my cpu with it

calm crow
#

You can 100% find the 10400f cheaper

keen nacelle
#

Then again it doesn't come with the cooler

tender mulch
#

what doesn't?

keen nacelle
#

10400f. Or am I wrong?

tender mulch
#

It comes with a cooler

#

Like the 3600

keen nacelle

Oh I thought all intel cpus didny

I only recently got into pcs (end of last year)

Glad to have a pc that can play stuff tho, went from a 1030 i5-3470 to this

the screen itself doesn't look that different tbh

I was a fortnite kid, I went in and said "just want something that can run fortnite"

heady turtle
#

That's fair tho

keen nacelle
#

Yeah it was a work pc, I had no clue though

heady turtle
#

Was bad pairing from the shop tho lol

keen nacelle
#

I didn't even know what a gt 1030 was

heady turtle
#

Why did they still have intel 3rd gen

keen nacelle
#

Idk, still enjoyed having a pc though

#

Ran any game I wanted to up until cold war came out

#

Tbf fortnite was the most demanding game I ever wanted to play

fresh fable
#

Hello?

tender mulch
#

?

fresh fable
#

I was looking through the video cards and narrowed it down to one, maybe two, but was not sure how to be confident that the cards would work in my system? I couldn't find a forum style site, and NewEgg suggested posting here.

tender mulch
#

What is the system and what is the card?

fresh fable
#

Dell small form factor with: Intel Core i7 @ 2.80GHz, AMD Radeon R7 200 Series

tender mulch
#

What is the model number of Dell?

#

SOme of those lock GPU compatibility in the BIOS

fresh fable
#

Optiplex 980

#

Had to crawl under my desk.

#

The Radeon that's in it now, fan died, came from NewEgg, so I am hoping nothing has changed much.

tender mulch
#

That is a really old tower

#

10 years from what I can tell

#

and it's not worth the $400 price tag

#

I'm assuming what you have now is the R7 240?

fresh fable
#

Sorry, called away, back now. Speccy just shows R7 200 series.

#

I found this one on NewEgg, thought it might work:

#

GIGABYTE GeForce GT 710 DirectX 12 GV-N710D5-2GL 2GB 64-Bit DDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x8 Low Profile Video Card

tender mulch
#

Do you play games on this system at all?

fresh fable
#

I mainly play MechWarrior Online so I don't need bleeding edge graphics

tender mulch
#

Well, the 710 won't go games at all

#

It's purely video out

#

that's it

fresh fable
#

Was afraid of that, but considering it's a hand me down from my brother, I'll work something out.

tender mulch
#

Problem is

#

GPU Market right now is absolute trash

#

Nothing decent is available and if it is, it's extremely overpriced

fresh fable
#

Noob question, how does video out differ from the card you found on Amazon?

tender mulch
#

Processing power

#

Most integrated GPU's are better than the GT710

fresh fable
#

The integrated GPU on mine won't handle Mech Warrior Online(MWO), hence the Radeon currently installed.

tender mulch
#

Right, the problem is finding another GPU right now that's not 2-3x the price it should be :/

#

Find a new fan maybe?

#

Download GPU-Z and run it to see exactly what it is

#

maybe you can just replace the fan or heatsink instead

fresh fable
#

Could a small fan mounted to blow across the card achieve the same rsult?

#

Trust me, pretty in the farthest thing from my mind

tender mulch
#

Depends on the card and the shroud

#

Most have a plastic shroud around them to direct air from the fan across a heatsink

fresh fable
#

OK, would the air be blowing onto the card or drawing air away?

tender mulch
#

The fan sucks air in and blows it across the heatsink

#

If it has a shroud

#

If it's just a bare heatsink, that's different

fresh fable
#

The card has a heatsink with a fan in the middle. The fan stopped working and as long as I keep the graphics load light it will work. But trying to play MWO caused the one and only time it shut down from heat. So no playing at the moment>

tender mulch
#

Ah, if no plastic shroud just use a PC fan pointed at it then

#

Can probably get a replacement fan for $10 tho

fresh fable
#

Ok, I will research some of this and see what can be done. Thank you for the help and advice.

uneven bough
#

and fortnite

tender mulch
#

We aren't talking about those games

#

Also, not sure I'd call 720p a good gaming experience with a GT710

hot folio
#

So turns out I’m going to need new cables for my new gpu. It has 2 8 pins sockets. Any suggestions? I have a Corsair hx750

tender mulch
#

Are you sure?

heady turtle
#

That should have 2x pcie

tender mulch
#

It does

#

It has 3 actually

#

6+2 PIN PCI-E

heady turtle
#

It's a modular psu you probs don't have it plugged in?

tender mulch
#

SHould have come with the cables also

hot folio
#

Yeah but the only cables I have have a 6+2 and a 6 pin daisy chain

#

I would use them but I don’t want to have the 6 pins just dangling there

heady turtle
#

Check the box

tender mulch
#

Oh

heady turtle
#

There should be 2 more pcie

tender mulch
#

so you want just a single connector

hot folio
#

Yeah

tender mulch
#

without the second connector on it

#

Just get extensions then

heady turtle
#

You shouldn't daisy chain for a 3070

hot folio
#

But I don’t know what to actually search for to find them

hot folio
heady turtle
hot folio
#

Ok that’s an option thanks

heady turtle
#

That's what i did

hot folio
#

If I was to try to find single connector cables what would I search for?

heady turtle
#

Cable mod cables or lian li strimmers

#

But be careful

#

Pinouts can be weird

tender mulch
heady turtle
#

Fair enough didn't think Silverstone sold extensions

hot folio
#

Ahh ok thanks

fresh fable
#

VintageRacer79, do you have time for another question?

heady turtle
fresh fable
#

Racer had asked what 200 series card my Radeon R7 was and all Speccy told me 200 Series. He suggested GPU-Z, so I downloaded it but it does not seem to show anymore than Speccy. Is there somewhere I can ID what 200 series card I have installed?

tender mulch
#

What's the die number in the GPU box

fresh fable
#

In the box with GPU to the left, it says 0land (not sure if zero or the letter O)

tender mulch
#

Huh

#

Odd

fresh fable
#

Oh, lucky me. Stump the experts day.

tender mulch
#

at this point might have to physically remove it and check the stickers

#

There's usually a white on on the back with a model number on it

livid idol
#

Here's hoping it's not a hacked fake 🤞

tender mulch
#

I doubt it

fresh fable
#

NOw look, don't give Mr. Murphy anymore ammo, he likes me to much as it is.

livid idol
#

Not likely I know but there is a non-zero chance

tender mulch
#

I think it's just too old for GPU-Z to have it in the database

fresh fable
#

You're not helping feel young.

tender mulch
#

Does it look like this?

tender mulch
#

Or this?

fresh fable
#

Let me try something. Need a couple minutes.

#

Tried to upload a pic but not able right now. Let me shelf this until I can get to the back of the card and see what is printed there. Thank you for the help and suggestions.

2gb or 4gb?

yea thats a scalper

why i was wondering on a price lol

heady stratus

wtf??? wow

I was happy my 1070ti went for $400 on ebay, wtf is that?

livid idol

$140 to $200 maybe for the 4gb 960

That link looks more like tax fraud to me. Businesses can deduct the price of unsold inventory.

My dad only got his first dose and he's 50(he got his a few weeks early cuz he just had a surgery on his back and neck so he's on a list of high risk i guess) but i have friends in the Netherlands and Belgium who already got their first shot around the same time as my dad :/

Then there is the case of fake Pfizer vaccines

#

In Poland and Mexico fake vaccines have started showing up

heady turtle
#

But yeah in Ireland they're not going to spread it out to 4 or 8 weeks for 2nd doses like the uk is doing, which is sad because it would be better to get up the herd immunity rather than boosting individual immunity by 15-20%

#

But i probs wont get my vaccine til july or August

I'm getting my second dose in August

Is there a script to fix it?

tender mulch

Erfror 43 is either a hardware or driver issue

heady turtle

If you're doing virtualization, i think nvidia added support for it in the latest driver updates

heady turtle
#

idk im kinda eger

halcyon plover
#

Or get a 3080ti fe

heady turtle
#

I was gonna wait but got tired of my r9 380 and was like if i mine it's basically a tree upgrade

surreal robin
#

i thinking about it

#

whats gonna be that best place to get a card

#

the

heady turtle
#

Newegg shuffle

#

Or best buy

halcyon plover
#

I upgraded from a 1060 and needed it lol

ember marsh
#

halcyon plover
#

Was running warzone on 89c with it

ember marsh
#

@surreal robin u planning to upgrade?

heady turtle
#

Or amd.com if you want to get a 6800 or 6800xt

ember marsh
#

what will u do with the old 2060?

heady turtle
ember marsh

heady turtle
halcyon plover
#

i mean i had decent fps like 80 -70 on low settings

tender mulch
#

Ahem

ember marsh
#

o

surreal robin
#

the old 2060 i will sell

ember marsh
#

should i have dm?

heady turtle
#

2060 would easily get 400

tender mulch
#

Shouldn't buy or sell here

hot folio
#

maybe even 500

tender mulch
#

Period

heady turtle
ember marsh
#

mb

#

2060 is nice

tender mulch
#

I had one

#

It's ok

#

Ray Tracing part sucks

ember marsh
#

im on a 2013 imac rn

tender mulch
#

But regular gaming it's good

ember marsh
#

cry in hand me down

heady turtle
#

Yeah it's decent 2060

hot folio
#

Jeez i just scrolled up and Rygar has his life better put together than me at that age

tender mulch
#

Eh

#

at least you have something

heady turtle
surreal robin
#

is there any 3060 3070 or 3080 in stock anywhere rn?

tender mulch
#

Nope

hot folio
#

No

tender mulch
hot folio
#

Newegg shuffle, best buy or microcenter are your best bets

halcyon plover
#

Dont get 3060

#

Not a big upgrade for you

tender mulch
#

Ye, basically a 2060 super

hot folio
#

and thats if your parents allow you to wait outside a best buy or microcenter early in the morning

tender mulch
#

not a great upgrade

heady turtle
hot folio
#

shuffle is your best bet

#

3060 is a waste, 3060ti or above is what you should be looking at

surreal robin
#

so i should get a 3080

ember marsh
#

do you know when the 3000 series stock is available most often during the day?

halcyon plover
#

3080 3070 3060ti all good

tender mulch
#

It's not

#

Newegg Shuffle

heady turtle
#

Imo 3060 ti or 3070

tender mulch
#

Or Best Buy drop

#

once every two weeks

hot folio
#

id go for the 3060ti its so close to performance of the 3070 i wouldnt say the 3070 is worth it

halcyon plover
#

3070 is 10 15 % better

tender mulch
#

Eh, 3070 pretty POG

ember marsh
#

and u get like 12 gb

tender mulch
#

I have one but got it befor eprice hike

heady turtle
halcyon plover
#

Yeah 3060 ti so rare

hot folio
heady turtle
halcyon plover
#

Where

#

I need some 3060ti

hot folio
#

Ive been looking at benchmarks and the difference is only about 5-10 frames

heady turtle
surreal robin
#

is my cpu good

hot folio
#

Most games at 1080p and 1440p

#

4k yeah 3070 beats it hands down

tender mulch
surreal robin
#

ryzen 7 3800x

tender mulch
#

It's aight

halcyon plover
#

Yeah

hot folio
#

thats plenty

tender mulch
#

Still plenty good

hot folio
#

I have a 3700x and its lasting me for heavy CAD work for engineering projects/work

halcyon plover
#

Even a 2600 wont realy bottleneck a 3070 on 1440p

ember marsh
#

whats the best aftermarket gpu in term of price and performance?

low owl
#

Wish I lived closer to one of these elusive Microcenters...

hot folio
#

your 3800x will last you perfectly for gaming

surreal robin
#

my 14 yer old can process all the talking lol

#

cant

#

too tiny

ember marsh
#

speaking hypothetically ofc

tender mulch
#

Founders are cheaper but harder to get

#

Best Buy only

heady turtle
#

I'm gonna have to save the phrase whatever model you can find for the cheapest in a text doc on my desktop at this rate so i can copy paste XD

surreal robin
#

look at it

#

is that worth?

halcyon plover
#

No

heady turtle

heady turtle
#

Starting at 500 lol

halcyon plover
#

Just dont buy a gpu from ebay

surreal robin
#

ok

halcyon plover
#

Its either a scam or scalped

hot folio
#

Ebay is always a bad idea for computer parts

heady turtle
#

For 2nd hand parts its fine

high surge
#

i'm ready to lose the shuffle again

tender kite
#

imahien losing

surreal robin
#

how does the newegg shuffle work

#

for 3080s

tender mulch
#

You sign up

surreal robin
#

i did

tender mulch
#

If you win, it gets added to your cart and you can buy it

surreal robin
#

so it just goes in when you sign up if you win

#

your cart

tender mulch
#

You'll get an email as well

#

and yes

#

If you get notified don't sit on it, buy it ASAP

surreal robin

hybrid kettle

#

Finally won an ASUS ROG STRIX 6700XT 12gb on the shuffle today along with a B450-F motherboard. Was hoping for a 3070 but beggars can’t be choosers…

tender mulch
#

6700XT still decent

median sequoia
#

Yea better than my 1070ti lmao

winter bane
#

6900 Blue D 💙 in da house !

random venture
#

Does it hurt your chances by signing up for everything in the shuffle? Or is it better to select only one item?

tender mulch
#

No one knows what the odds really are or how it works so sign up for everything you want.

random venture
#

That's what I thought

#

Anything is better than my GTX 750 lol

still jackal
#

Where can I buy a 3060!!!

Nowhere right now :/

Except scalpers on Ebay

When do e-mails for the results stop getting sent out?

#

Because Newegg says 11 est but is it actually 11 or do they stop earlier

slim vessel
#

other day i got the you lost email at 10:04pm est

hot folio

Oh there’s a you lost email?

#

So I might still have a chance lol

slim vessel

yea, they notify both ways

tender mulch

Yep, although low

I submitted in the first 15 minutes, and havn't been notified this time yet

the subject of the you lost email is

summer condor
#

what card is this?

#

ive never seen a card with a heatsink go past the back plate

serene vapor
#

Im looking to build a pc I want a 3060, if I build it on newegg and pay for the building or whatever I can get it, but will i have to wait longer for that?

tender mulch
#

Orrrrrr not

#

Nope

slim vessel
#

nah, close, but the pic'ed card has wires closer to front

meager sleet
#

problem with the only shuffle i have seen is they want you to buy a motherboard AND the GPU

tender mulch
slim vessel

jagged sequoia

a lot of the rtx 3k series is designed like that, with the fan at the end blowing all the way through the card

Pass through cooling I believe it's called
Not a new concept, just coming back into popularity with how hot everything is.

summer condor
#

well yeah but i know with the FE they have the whole thing extended to the end. then again i don't stare at backplates much

jagged sequoia
#

on my 3070 the backplate goes all the way to the end, it just has holes in it

tender mulch
#

Mine too

jagged sequoia
#

I think we have the same one now, lol

#

XC3 Ultra

tender mulch
#

ya

slim vessel
#

well, no luck this time

jagged sequoia
#

F

slim vessel
#

better luck tomorrow

summer condor
#

Not mine lol

#

This is mine

#

I was asking what gpu that was bc of its backplate. 3070 ventus

halcyon plover
#

What is this gpu

summer condor
#

5700xt xfx thicc II pro

halcyon plover
#

Oh nice

vital oriole
#

thicc ii sadly sucks despite the thickness

summer condor
#

Thicc II pro has revisions based on how much it got pooed on with release

#

6months after thicc II ultra they released pro that had copper cold plate and a few other things. My thermals aren't really that bad. Hotspot is warm but node temp is like high 65 on gaming load

#

Still wish the plastic wasn't as much

#

But it looks classy i guess

Gt 1030 or gtx 750ti? which one is better

heady turtle
#

Don't buy a 750 ti

#

A 1030 isn't good either but

#

I got €170 for my 5.5 year old r9 380 that i got for 200 lol

#

I mean was great for me means i basically bought my 3070 for 550 instead of 720

austere mulch
#

when is the next graphics card drop

heady turtle
#

Depends where

austere mulch
#

I'm looking for a 2070 or a 3060

heady turtle
#

Best buy is every 2 weeks on Tuesdays or Thursdays

heady turtle
#

Newegg shuffle is pretty much every week day

austere mulch
#

Ahh, I see

#

Almost any drop price is a steal in the market we have right now too right?

heady turtle
#

Yeah lol msrp is basically +200 at least

#

Unless you're lucky enough to get a founders edition but they rare

karmic crag
#

so, general rule of them, keep your eyes peeled on those days every 2 weeks

heady turtle
#

Ohh well close enough

karmic crag
#

they dropped on a thursday at 4:30 est last month or something stupid like that

heady turtle
#

Yeah just keep eyes peeled

karmic crag
#

👁️

#

peeled

heady turtle
#

What's wrong with 4.30?

#

🍌

karmic crag
#

they usually drop at around 11 est-1 est

heady turtle
#

Ahh

#

I don't trust the times

karmic crag
#

i wish they were more consistent with the times

#

i used to be able to stick around for 1-2 hours by my desktop to see if they dropped, now the whole day is open season

heady turtle
#

Yeah, you should try a stock checker bot

karmic crag
#

i'm pretty much putting all my chips in for the newegg shuffle at this point.

karmic crag
heady turtle
#

Nah not the discords or anything they usually too slow, try stock informers website or one from github or something

karmic crag
#

oh true

#

thanks

heady turtle
#

Np

silent ibex
#

i always include shipping when i sell anything on ebay. that way the buyer get ebay bucks for the entire price.

heady turtle
#

What?

primal trout
#

hey is liquid cooled GPU any good?

#

it has no fan, but say its liquid cooled

heady turtle
#

As in a water block?

#

That means you need to add it to a custom water cooled loop

#

You can send in a link/pic if want and can check

primal trout
#

it looks like a closed card, no liquid input or input loop

#

it AQUOS 3080,

tender mulch
#

Custom loop cooling, do you have a custom loop PC? If so, it's fine

heady turtle
#

If not it's a pain because you'd need a custom loop

primal trout
#

what?

idle slate
#

there are aio gpu, aorus has a few

primal trout
#

its self contained GPU card.

tender mulch
#

Yeah that requires water cooling

#

A full custom water cooling loop

primal trout
#

nevermind

tender mulch
#

If you don't have that already, don't get the card

halcyon plover
#

Thats expensive so pass

fast ravine
#

Heyy!

idle slate
#

that comes with an aio i didnt think it needed a custom loop

#

like it has a 240mm rad with it

tender mulch
#

Is it that one or the full custom waterblock one?

idle slate
#

custom waterblock one does need custom loop

tender mulch
#

Ya

idle slate
#

the naming is so similar its annoying

tender mulch
#

They mentioned no fan and no tubes which indicates full loop card.

idle slate
#

i thought they meant no fans on the housing but i could have misinterpreted

tender mulch
#

it looks like a closed card, no liquid input or input loop

idle slate
#

ah

#

if its the second one you need a loop

tender mulch
#

Ya

idle slate
#

i think i misinterpreted "self contained"

tender mulch
#

IDK, a link or something would be nice XD

primal trout
#

ok i did get that GPU, what is the liquid cooling component should i get for this GPU?

#

i just view some Youtube on this card, i m a total idiot for buying it

green harness
#

What gpu did you get?

tender mulch
#

Pump with reservoir, radiator, a bunch of fittings and a bunch of tubing, propane torch to bend the tubing and a CPU block

green harness
#

Link?

primal trout
#

this link above

green harness
#

There are two

primal trout
heady turtle
#

It's gonna cost you around 200$ or so

primal trout
#

well is there a water cooling component i can buy for either?

heady turtle
#

Maybe more

tender mulch
#

If not more

heady turtle
#

Btw

dreamy dragonBOT
#
IsGoingWell#8200 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

tender mulch
green harness
#

Ah yeah you need a custom loop. You could go soft tubing, which I think is supposed to be easier

tender mulch
#

Just return the card and get a different one XD

primal trout
#

maybe should just return it

heady turtle
#

Fittings etc

primal trout
#

i rather spend time on crypto

dreamy dragonBOT
#
IsGoingWell#8200 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

#
IsGoingWell#8200 has been kicked

Reason: Too many infractions

heady turtle
#

Then yeah either get an aio card, it will have a radiator attached with fans on that or an air cooled card

#

Did they get banned or they just can't talk for a bit btw :/

If i could win the new egg shuffle i would finally put this poor old 1030 to rest

vital pivot
#

Heh. Sell it.

fallow vortex
#

nahh it aint worth selling

vital pivot
#

True. But someone will buy it.

fallow vortex
#

fan is broken and the only thing keeping it cool is the heat sink

heady turtle
#

Still get like 40$ for it

fallow vortex
#

I probs can, but I don't wanna torture this card any further

heady turtle
#

Fair lol

#

Not harm to have as troubleshooting card anyway lol

fallow vortex

true

this card is pretty cool tho, can still play minecraft at 75hz

slim vessel

I got the thanks for entering email before the starting soon email

I can play Minecraft at 10 FPS

If i win shuffle, i could sell my R7-250 OC

sweet cloud
#

I'm only running a 660 lol

#

true, but if you do...

#

yea

#

this is the first one I've done before. I had never even heard of it before now

#

yep lol

heady turtle
#

It's hand filtered so if you pick anything you probs won't make it through

#

Founders edition

#

That's it

sweet cloud
#

yep

heady turtle
#

Start looking at 3060 tis for under 600 too tbh

#

3060 ti is like 10% less than 3070

#

Ohh very

#

Enter Newegg shuffle

#

Shuffle is most reliable way with best buy you need to be lucky

#

All the 3060 tis and 3070s perform the same as any other 3060 ti or 3070

tender mulch
#

Not necessarily better but cheaper

heady turtle
#

But fe cards are the only ones at msrp

#

Yep

#

Any 3060 ti/3070 under 600 is a steal

#

Why you got 1 exact day lol?

sweet cloud
#

XD

slim vessel
#

I'm sure one of us would be willing to video call and walk you through, if that was acceptable to them

heady turtle
#

Yeah you've got a whole server of smart pc people and YouTube at your finger tips

sweet cloud
#

yea, I think I would know how to build one, but I still wouldn't trust myself. I've done small stuff like PSU swaps and motherboard swaps, but nothing major

slim vessel
#

Mobo swap is its self building a PC.

sweet cloud
#

true

heady turtle
sweet cloud
#

lol

slim vessel
#

Actually considering you have to clean the CPU, mobo swap may be marginally harder

sweet cloud
#

what rig are you making?

#

I just did a mobo swap last sunday, and I got new ram, new psu, new cpu, and new mobo

#

you

sweet cloud
#

so i didn't have to worry about cleaning the cpu

#

its the same case...

#

XD

#

that's a decent rig

#

especially with the 3070

#

yea, but each time you learn something new

#

like why you always have enough standoffs

fallow vortex
#

thats a rlly solid build

sweet cloud
#

like an integrated?

green harness
#

Nice, the M27Q is a good monitor (especially for the price), I've got one myself

sweet cloud
#

and what cpu is that?

hybrid kettle
sweet cloud
#

ah

#

I had a i5 3rd gen that has 4000 graphics according to newegg

raven thunder
#

wow, the 3060ti FE at best buy was on sale tdy for a good 12 minutes in canada

#

sadly i missed it tho 200Sad

hybrid kettle
#

Do you live in Canada

raven thunder
#

yea

hybrid kettle
#

I’m trying to get another 3060ti fe or the 3060ti evga one

raven thunder
#

yea

#

since they pretty cheap

#

compared to the other models

#

12 minutes is not bad, and definitely possible

#

but now i have to wait another 2 weeks

hybrid kettle
#

Yeah nice for mining or I’m thinking of building a vr/portable gaming rig

raven thunder
#

aye nice

hybrid kettle
#

I brought my pc to my friends house and it was large

#

Probably much easier with a small pc

raven thunder
#

lol ye

If I were to do itx I would need to get a gpu first and mine for a month prob

raven thunder
