Just above 700
ouch
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?????
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
Ntb
what lol
That card is grossly overpriced from a scalper
o ok
$299 msrp
yea i was just searching to see if any hidden stock was up
Those cards have been discontinued since July of last year
the only stock left is from scalpers or used
with the 3080 ti shipment coming in, anybody know if there is any other coming with it ?
According to what I have read people say May 30 a shipment of 3080 ti will be coming in
Been delayed
Wait for Best Buy drop then :/
yea been watching it
Just take the 70$ hit tbh and think of it as a price increase in the card instead tbh
People have been citing all kinds of rumors as fact
Not if it's gigabyte lol 🔥 also who is gonna buy a second hand psu
Yeah gigabyte ones are commonly bundled from what I've seen
I sold gigabyte hazard 750w tnt and kept my 3070 vision lol
The poor buyer :/
I’m pretty sure it’s EVGA psu
Idk what it is today but gigabyte cards have commonly been bundled with gigabyte psus
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.
They have been for a long time now
What’s so bad about gigabyte puss?
eh he using it and he's still alive lmao
PSUs*
SOme of them are bombs
Some have blown up in testing
Oh boy
The PGM models
Still* just wait X)
LITERAL bombs, that take out half the computer
I would say I’m surprised but then again it’s gigabyte
yeah I just waiting for news that his house burned lol
Yeah they're commonly known to skimp on product quality to save a few cents
As well as completely ignore their RMA requests to save money
Tbf my gigabyte motherboard and 3070 have been perfectly good
Their mbs are realy good
I may just be a bit biased since they’ve burned me twice now
A lot of their product lines are good, but the low end /cheap stuff...
On the 3070 the vram is missing thermal pads but still i mine with it for more then a month no problems
Me with a b450m ds3h 👀
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
Same mine doesn't go above 60c even with no thermal pads
See in Europe we don't deal with the manufacturer if something like that happens within warranty we contact the retailer not manufacturer
Yeah
Yeah my hotspot at most goes to 60c usually 50c
Yeah must be nice
3070 doesn't have memory temp sensors...
Hotspot
Ik it's not mem tho lol
How different performance wise is the EVGA rtx 3070 and a rig strix 3070?
You'll be more stable and possibly higher vram clock if you add pads to your gigabyte
@hot folio the ftw3 might be better tbh
Ftw3 is sexy too
Nothing, strix has slightly better cooler mb but depends what evgs
Strix 3070 outclocked the FTW3 when GN tested it
Because it has more power limit
It’s the FTW3 ultra
Ya
Still v good
I was looking for a strix but I got a decent deal on the ftw3
With the way the ftw3 looks id rather have it anyway
Mb but i already get +1300 mem
The EVGA step up program also looks pretty nice
It's a 90 day thing
So if something better comes out within 90 days, you can upgrade
All I want is strix white 3080 or 90 
Just beccause someone listed it, doesn't mean it's released 😉
You have an article or something?
But usually it means it’s coming very soon
I maxed out my memory clock on my 2070, +1500 and stable enough for mining with under 2% reject
Someone found a hidden listing on a website in NZ
Suggest
It’s not a hidden listing
Reliable insiders state June
June is still within 90 days so it’s fine by me lmao
It's still a gamble
I haven't even heard of 3070s getting above +1350 without too many rejects tho
I have seen 1400
2070, not 3070
I’ve seen 1400 a couple times
Yes but usually too many rejects
Ik but i just mean like it's hardly able to get higher with thermal pads then right?
I wonder how much the 3080 ti will cost in sweden
I mean 58mh or 62 doesnt realy matter
Probably an msrp of 1200$ so then that plus sweedish tax if you got a fe
It would help with stability, even if it doesn't improve clock speed
I'm most likely going to get a strix version if they release it, my guesses are after tax mby $1800 - $2000
You'd also boost higher on core
The strix would probs be double msrp or something lol(assuming msrp is a good bit higher than 3080)
Yeah the 3080 strix goes for almost $1600 in sweden
I'll think about it but idk if I'm that bothered tbh
2 minutes till the shuffle
the shuffle?
I doubt I’m going to be OCing my 3070 when it comes in
I'd say more on the 2000 end
Newegg shuffle
you mean the 3080 ti price?
Not saying you have to, just saying it's an option that might help performance
Newegg shuffle, it's a lotto to get a chance to buy cards/Ryzen 5000 cpus basically
Yeah
Mb in the future but im playing 1080p so my cpu is more bottleneck anyway lol
That's about the same as it is in usa
Yeah picked up my 3090 for $2200
How much do thermal pads cost?
Like 30$ for a gpu will be enough?
Ohh nice when did you get your 3090?
Like 5-10$ from my research
Last week from the shuffle. Haven't been able to use it yet though, stupid UPS is almost a week late delivering my new psu
Oh i might order some then
I believe so or at least commonly in stock, because it's a dum price, 100 less than 5900x 150 more than 5600x
Oof :/ that's nice tho congrats
Was it the water cooled one for 2200?
Your 3060 up on ebay yet XD?
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
Yeah the water cooled gigabyte one
Nice thats a ok price then
Mining with that one for a while lol
Fair, you got the cracked i mean "dev" driver?
You gotta do a custom loop then?
Or aio card?
Plenty of 3060s. Makes a man cry
Yeah I'm pretty sure there's an ek gigabyte card so wasn't sure
in the shuffle there is 7 separate bundles. That’s what I was referring too
Is there any one won in the shuffle?
hasn't been announced yet today
It was either a 240 or 280 rad I believe
4 hours to go
I always enter for any low priced cards so I can keep them out of the hands of scalpers, if I win I plan on selling them for what I paid to a gamer
How you gonna tell they a gamer?
Mine 
Very epic. I just want a card
You know them personally
sell them locally. Add them on steam and see what they play. Play with them
Well I have two friends trying to build, but other than that I'd ask for a timestamped picture of their incomplete build
Or that man
Yeah i guss but i thought they would have said friend then instead
Im interd a four times now and still didn't won
Friends are gamers
I've entered over 20
Fair
Haven't won once
That's a pain tbh lol
Newegg said around 100000 people enter, you have a .1 chance to win
I never said it was good
I wish I had the money to get stuff for my build but of course I don't :/
There's been people that have entered almost every one and not one once
That's not what Newegg said lol
That was a clickbait article
With complete guesses
Oop
I hate how expensive these parts are
From Toms I think
It's a 240 aio
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
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
Ohh nice, a custom loop would be a pain to do lol
Took me 39 entries to win a gpu no one else wanted
Got*
Exactly why I just got a pre built
I might convert it to a custom loop later and adapt the fittings
Didn't want to deal with the gpu trouble
I also won a gpu no one wanted and realized I didn’t want it my either
1200 usd for a 3060 ti ryzen 3600 build
What gpu lol
Earlier this year I'm guessing? They're going for like 1500 now
6700xt I don’t remember model but was like 800
Yeah I didn't really want it either but... Gotta power that 1440p@165Hz monitor, you know?
Oh yeah yikes
Beginning of Jan, but even now I could find easily 5 for around 1300
And came with 130 dollar bomb
You were like i suppose i gotta XD
We love that
Yeah my bomb wouldn't even arm, failed the paperclip test
oh ok i wasnt sure
Nah that's 3060 territory now
When they don't ship you a working bomb :(
I'll return the bombs until I get a working one I can at least use on low power mode testing
Yeah will be fine for testing it turns on before putting your rig in a case lol
Yeah if you dont push it too far it should be fine
Not really, check out the subreddit r/suggestapc that's where I've seen most of the good priced pcs
Like 80% of the watts
Link one lol?
Heck they even have a 3070 build going around rn for I think 1450 if I remember correctly
Wait does that count as cussing?
In the last month to doubt
Yeah that's what i thought
Sorry it was a $1540 3070 build https://www.reddit.com/r/suggestapc/comments/n4e289/suggestion_whats_a_good_build_for_1600_thats_not/gwwsxmo?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3
7 votes and 13 comments so far on Reddit
Sometimes if someone mis spells ship that's funny to see lol
Yeah that's ntb but the 4% cashback bit if you go through one of these portals bit is a bit weird
https://www.bestbuy.com/site/cyberpowerpc-gamer-master-gaming-desktop-amd-ryzen-5-3600-16gb-memory-nvidia-geforce-rtx-3060-1tb-hdd-500gb-ssd-black/6455898.p?skuId=6455898 3060 build for 1200, ik best buy stocks are infrequent
Where them 3080s at
Intel 10400 outperforms 3600 in games, might be able to find that cheaper
Yeah im just now upgrading the mobo in my build, it's cheap as heck (b450mh) so hoping to upgrade my cpu with it
You can 100% find the 10400f cheaper
Then again it doesn't come with the cooler
what doesn't?
10400f. Or am I wrong?
just installed my temp 580... intel uhd 630 will hurt me no longer
No just the i9s and k cpus iirc
Cool
I was planning on building my pc, then I saw the gpu market
Fair
very
ive had no gpu for a year now
Now I'm just upgrading it slowly

Glad to have a pc that can play stuff tho, went from a 1030 i5-3470 to this
Why did you even have a 1030 with such an old cpu?
the screen itself doesn't look that different tbh
Well tbf the 1030 is pretty weak, and I got it as my first pc after my bar mitzvah, got it for like 400 with a monitor, keyboard, and mouse at a pc shop near my house. I had no clue about pcs
I was a fortnite kid, I went in and said "just want something that can run fortnite"
Yes ik just 1030 us recentish and that's an 8 year old cpu lol
That's fair tho
Yeah it was a work pc, I had no clue though
Was bad pairing from the shop tho lol
I didn't even know what a gt 1030 was
Why did they still have intel 3rd gen
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
Hello?
?
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.
What is the system and what is the card?
Dell small form factor with: Intel Core i7 @ 2.80GHz, AMD Radeon R7 200 Series
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.
That is a really old tower
10 years from what I can tell
This is the only card that will fit from the research I've done. https://www.amazon.com/ZOTAC-GeForce-DisplayPort-128-bit-ZT-P10510A-10L/dp/B01MCU1ERO
and it's not worth the $400 price tag
I'm assuming what you have now is the R7 240?
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
Do you play games on this system at all?
I mainly play MechWarrior Online so I don't need bleeding edge graphics
Was afraid of that, but considering it's a hand me down from my brother, I'll work something out.
Problem is
GPU Market right now is absolute trash
Nothing decent is available and if it is, it's extremely overpriced
Noob question, how does video out differ from the card you found on Amazon?
The integrated GPU on mine won't handle Mech Warrior Online(MWO), hence the Radeon currently installed.
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
Could a small fan mounted to blow across the card achieve the same rsult?
Trust me, pretty in the farthest thing from my mind
Depends on the card and the shroud
Most have a plastic shroud around them to direct air from the fan across a heatsink
OK, would the air be blowing onto the card or drawing air away?
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
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>
Ah, if no plastic shroud just use a PC fan pointed at it then
Can probably get a replacement fan for $10 tho
Ok, I will research some of this and see what can be done. Thank you for the help and advice.
We aren't talking about those games
Also, not sure I'd call 720p a good gaming experience with a GT710
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
Are you sure?
That should have 2x pcie
It's a modular psu you probs don't have it plugged in?
SHould have come with the cables also
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
Check the box
Oh
There should be 2 more pcie
so you want just a single connector
Yeah
You shouldn't daisy chain for a 3070
But I don’t know what to actually search for to find them
I know, that’s why I’m trying to find single connectors
Ahh i see, zip tie it back on itself, you wont be able to see really
Ok that’s an option thanks
That's what i did
If I was to try to find single connector cables what would I search for?
SOmething like this : https://www.amazon.com/Silverstone-Sleeved-Extension-Connector-PP07-PCIW/dp/B00B46XJ7K
Fair enough didn't think Silverstone sold extensions
Ahh ok thanks
VintageRacer79, do you have time for another question?
I'm not vintage but what's up?
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?
In the box with GPU to the left, it says 0land (not sure if zero or the letter O)
Oh, lucky me. Stump the experts day.
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
Here's hoping it's not a hacked fake 🤞
I doubt it
NOw look, don't give Mr. Murphy anymore ammo, he likes me to much as it is.
Not likely I know but there is a non-zero chance
I think it's just too old for GPU-Z to have it in the database
You're not helping feel young.
Does it look like this?
I'm 41 years old, been doing this for 27 of those years
Or this?
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.
YW
I wanted the ti4600 so bad back in the day
Why is there just extra pcb on the right lol
The early 2000's was a different time m8. Nobody looking at the inside of your case
Gah that thing is painful to look at. It just screams "inefficient design"
Yeah but... It gave people 100 fps in TFC
It really does lol
I honestly think it was an early form of heat diffusion without realizing a need for a back plate
That must be like a 30mm fan lol
i have a old GTX 960, do you think it will see and how much for it ?
I got €170 for my amd equivalent of a 960 and if you're in the us they're going for like 250 iirc
not bad
That's a scalper
geeeeeez
$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.
When does Newegg shuffle announce results?
10 minutes ago
NOw for another few hours
Nvm I just checked Newegg, it’s from 5-11 est
Emails will be sent out at midnight (my time), 2 am, 4 am, and then sometime around 6am it'll end.
Only 4 months left over here 😤
Some grown ass man is bawling his eyes out here lmao
I got the J&J march 30th. Won the newegg but i was passed out due to the drowsiness caused by the vaccine
Riiiiip
I got my 1st Pfizer shot last week (Canada is slow)
US is lagging also
Yeah it was fairly easy to sign up to get the vaccine
I love CVS
New York opened to teens last month
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 :/
I’m pretty sure most of my family in Poland got fully vaccinated
Oof
Oof
Then there is the case of fake Pfizer vaccines
In Poland and Mexico fake vaccines have started showing up
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
I only had to wait about 2-3 weeks
Because I'm only 19 unless they decide to prioritize college students I'll be waiting a while
Canada wants to prioritize 1st doses over 2nd doses
They're only opening the option up to 50-60s next week or something
I wish Ireland where doing that
Idk anymore
Uk have been doing 8 weeks and they're doing really well
I just want quarantine to end
Pretty much looks like no downsides if you do within 8 weeks
Ig we're still good then
Halp
How can you fix a card that keeps throwing the 43 code?
Ahhh yeah sore arm was the only side effect I had
Virtualization?
Is there a script to fix it?
If you're doing virtualization, i think nvidia added support for it in the latest driver updates
If it doesn't, the hardware bad
It’s a Radeon
Is that not the virtualization error?
No
Ohh nvm
Ahh woops thought it was 43
It means the device has stopped
Yeah
Which means either the driver oofed or the hardware is defective
DDU in safe mode to clean drivers, then reinstall them https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html
Here you can Download Display Driver Uninstaller, this Display Driver Uninstaller is a driver removal utility that can help you completely uninstall AMD/NVIDIA graphics card drivers and packages from your system, with...
YW
cheapest good GPU's are what i am looking for atm, Could someone help me find one please?
None
lolol and hows he supposed to get one of those? pay x2 the msrp
Shuffle / best buy drop
is a 2060 good for most games right now?
if you're gaming in 1080p it's pretty solid, will get you 60+ fps in most things at high
cool
Yes but don't buy one for 600$
so i have a 2060 and a ryzen 7 3800 , and 32g of ram with a 800w power supply i think and a b450 mother board
lol I was using similar parts until I upgraded recently
cool
Its good build
its corsair vengeance ram
3070 or 3060ti will be nice for you but dont over pay just try to get them for msrp
Ehh v hard to fine and inflated prices 2060 will be fine
what xmp rating? you want to get some 3600c16 if you can, but it's kinda hard/expensive to get that much in a 2x16 kit
What cooler rygar?
yeah because a 3070 retail is cheaper then 2060 online rn right?
Think they already have the stuff
Then just try to get 3060ti or 3070 for msrp and if you manage to get one sell the 2060
Yes you can get them for abit more then that on newegg
Why a 3090
But not worth 2x 3080
oh
You're 14 and have 2k?
i work here and there
Dont waste all your money on a pc tho
ive been saving
Here and there you're 14
for years
i baby sit and cut lawns
3080 way better value
Yes you can get 3080 and 5900x in the price of 3090
For millionaires or something jeez?
no lol
ive been working for a while
and i have some money in stocks
im up 12 percent rn
Damn this kid has his life more put together than I do
Tbh i would just get a 3070 and 5800x keep that money/investing etc
dont worrie its not cyber power
i rebuilt it
i got this when i wa slike 7
i got scammed
😦
BUT ITS OK
caps
i rebuilt it
Nice setup
Imo just wait till the gpu situation dies off
Get a 4070 or 4080 when they come out like
That's what i would do tbh
idk im kinda eger
Or get a 3080ti fe
I was gonna wait but got tired of my r9 380 and was like if i mine it's basically a tree upgrade
I upgraded from a 1060 and needed it lol
LMAO
Was running warzone on 89c with it
@surreal robin u planning to upgrade?
what will u do with the old 2060?
Mine was a 960 equivalent
sell it for 150 and ill take it
i mean i had decent fps like 80 -70 on low settings
Ahem
o
the old 2060 i will sell
should i have dm?
2060 would easily get 400
Shouldn't buy or sell here
maybe even 500
Period
You should have followed the rules lol
im on a 2013 imac rn
But regular gaming it's good
cry in hand me down
Yeah it's decent 2060
Jeez i just scrolled up and Rygar has his life better put together than me at that age
Idk how they have that much money at 14
is there any 3060 3070 or 3080 in stock anywhere rn?
Nope
No
Try here in the mornings https://www.newegg.com/product-shuffle
Newegg shuffle, best buy or microcenter are your best bets
Ye, basically a 2060 super
and thats if your parents allow you to wait outside a best buy or microcenter early in the morning
not a great upgrade
Lol no, you gotta try newegg shuffle, best buy or amd.com and get a 6800 or 6800xt and don't get a 3060 like a 5% upgrade
shuffle is your best bet
3060 is a waste, 3060ti or above is what you should be looking at
so i should get a 3080
do you know when the 3000 series stock is available most often during the day?
3080 3070 3060ti all good
Imo 3060 ti or 3070
id go for the 3060ti its so close to performance of the 3070 i wouldnt say the 3070 is worth it
3070 is 10 15 % better
Eh, 3070 pretty POG
Ehh 10% jump ish
and u get like 12 gb
I have one but got it befor eprice hike
3070 is also slightly easier to find
Yeah 3060 ti so rare
It is? Ive seen a lot more 3060tis than 3070s
3070s are way more popular
Ive been looking at benchmarks and the difference is only about 5-10 frames

In what?
is my cpu good
It's about 10-15% depending on the game
ryzen 7 3800x
It's aight
Yeah
thats plenty
Still plenty good
I have a 3700x and its lasting me for heavy CAD work for engineering projects/work
Even a 2600 wont realy bottleneck a 3070 on 1440p
whats the best aftermarket gpu in term of price and performance?
Wish I lived closer to one of these elusive Microcenters...
your 3800x will last you perfectly for gaming
same
or should i just go for the stock NVIDIA models
speaking hypothetically ofc
Whatever you can find
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
No
Scam
Don't buy offf of eBay
whats lgm
Gonna be $1500 before it's over
lmg
Its an image
oh
And don't use build pics to post stuff like that pls
Ebay full of scams on new cards, even some old ones
Starting at 500 lol
Just dont buy a gpu from ebay
ok
Its either a scam or scalped
Ebay is always a bad idea for computer parts
For 2nd hand parts its fine
i'm ready to lose the shuffle again
imahien losing
You sign up
i did
If you win, it gets added to your cart and you can buy it
You'll get an email as well
and yes
If you get notified don't sit on it, buy it ASAP
Yes, for each time you sign up
ok
any winners today 🤔
Saw someone with 6900xt win but not anything else really
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…
6700XT still decent
Yea better than my 1070ti lmao
6900 Blue D 💙 in da house !
Does it hurt your chances by signing up for everything in the shuffle? Or is it better to select only one item?
No one knows what the odds really are or how it works so sign up for everything you want.
Where can I buy a 3060!!!
Yea
Can try the shuffle tomorrow https://www.newegg.com/product-shuffle
rip
i selected everything and managed to get a 3060 ti and a mobo
i doubt it hurts your chances at all
Wow. Just got my entry notification. lol
i got mine at 5 est
NOt here
See above
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
other day i got the you lost email at 10:04pm est
yea, they notify both ways
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
Newegg.com - $first_name, You Weren’t Selected In The Newegg Shuffle
Im looking to build a pc I want a 3060, if I build it on newegg and pay for the building or whatever I can get it, but will i have to wait longer for that?
3060 TI Gaming X Trio
Orrrrrr not
Nope
nah, close, but the pic'ed card has wires closer to front
problem with the only shuffle i have seen is they want you to buy a motherboard AND the GPU
RTX 3070 Ventus
^
just to make sure you get your answer
a lot of the rtx 3k series is designed like that, with the fan at the end blowing all the way through the card
Pass through cooling I believe it's called
Not a new concept, just coming back into popularity with how hot everything is.
well yeah but i know with the FE they have the whole thing extended to the end. then again i don't stare at backplates much
on my 3070 the backplate goes all the way to the end, it just has holes in it
Mine too
ya
well, no luck this time
F
better luck tomorrow
nice rig brother
Not mine lol
This is mine
I was asking what gpu that was bc of its backplate. 3070 ventus
What is this gpu
5700xt xfx thicc II pro
Oh nice
thicc ii sadly sucks despite the thickness
Thicc II pro has revisions based on how much it got pooed on with release
6months after thicc II ultra they released pro that had copper cold plate and a few other things. My thermals aren't really that bad. Hotspot is warm but node temp is like high 65 on gaming load
Still wish the plastic wasn't as much
But it looks classy i guess
like an antique car
Where do you get those gpu cables?
They look like cablemod cables, I have some too lol
they're antec cables i got from amazon. whole set cost 30$ but i got someone to get it for me for my birthday
i have a sapphire hd 7870 and im waiting on the fans to arrive so i can replace them
Gt 1030 or gtx 750ti? which one is better
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
when is the next graphics card drop
I'm looking for a 2070 or a 3060
Best buy is every 2 weeks on Tuesdays or Thursdays
2070s were discontinued almost a year ago, a 3060 is basically a 2060 super, I'd look for a 3060 or 3060 ti tbh
Newegg shuffle is pretty much every week day
Ahh, I see
Almost any drop price is a steal in the market we have right now too right?
Yeah lol msrp is basically +200 at least
Unless you're lucky enough to get a founders edition but they rare
it's pretty arbitrary now, more like every 2 weeks on wed/thurs/fri
so, general rule of them, keep your eyes peeled on those days every 2 weeks
Ohh well close enough
they dropped on a thursday at 4:30 est last month or something stupid like that
Yeah just keep eyes peeled
they usually drop at around 11 est-1 est
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
Yeah, you should try a stock checker bot
i'm pretty much putting all my chips in for the newegg shuffle at this point.
yep, already in a couple
Nah not the discords or anything they usually too slow, try stock informers website or one from github or something
Np
i always include shipping when i sell anything on ebay. that way the buyer get ebay bucks for the entire price.
What?
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
Custom loop cooling, do you have a custom loop PC? If so, it's fine
If not it's a pain because you'd need a custom loop
what?
there are aio gpu, aorus has a few
its self contained GPU card.
nevermind
If you don't have that already, don't get the card
Thats expensive so pass
Heyy!
that comes with an aio i didnt think it needed a custom loop
like it has a 240mm rad with it
Is it that one or the full custom waterblock one?
custom waterblock one does need custom loop
this one needs the loop https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-geforce-rtx-3080-gv-n3080aorusx-wb-10gd/p/N82E16814932371
Ya
the naming is so similar its annoying
They mentioned no fan and no tubes which indicates full loop card.
i thought they meant no fans on the housing but i could have misinterpreted
it looks like a closed card, no liquid input or input loop
Ya
i think i misinterpreted "self contained"
IDK, a link or something would be nice XD
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
What gpu did you get?
Pump with reservoir, radiator, a bunch of fittings and a bunch of tubing, propane torch to bend the tubing and a CPU block
Link?
this link above
There are two
this one
It's gonna cost you around 200$ or so
well is there a water cooling component i can buy for either?
Maybe more
If not more
Btw
Reason: Bad word usage
Gotta buy all the parts and put it together yourself
Ah yeah you need a custom loop. You could go soft tubing, which I think is supposed to be easier
Just return the card and get a different one XD
maybe should just return it
You need to either return that or you gotta put together a custom loop with tubing, radiator, pump resivour
Fittings etc
i rather spend time on crypto
Reason: Bad word usage
Reason: Too many infractions
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 :/
A wild 3060 for 400$ :o
it's so nice to see
no awful pairing, no awful price gouging, just...a 3060
i mean, i'm not gonna win the shuffle, but it's still nice
im entering for 3 things in the shuffle
it starts in 2 hours right?
ye
i know im not going to win but it still cheers me up to try
yep lol
Same. Gotta collect all the Ls
I GOT ONE!!! 3060 gigabyte from amazon
Nice
for how much 
Ntb
🧐 is he using a bot
Oh lookit that, they make money when you buy stuff too
true
They take the effort to put an affiliate link lol
yeah, let's not advertise for others
still! because of that guy I got a 3060 so I dont really care
Ah can’t wait to get hit with the not selected email
I’m feeling lucky today
Right? Then hear about people winning the shuffle multiple times.
yikes
Less than 2 minutes in and I've already submitted.
same
Dear God, please let me win a newegg shuffle
this is my first
amen
At best i get mobo, CPU, and GFX, at worst i get an email saying
Newegg.com - $first_name, You Weren’t Selected In The Newegg Shuffle
lol
lol
If i could win the new egg shuffle i would finally put this poor old 1030 to rest
Heh. Sell it.
nahh it aint worth selling
True. But someone will buy it.
fan is broken and the only thing keeping it cool is the heat sink
Still get like 40$ for it
I probs can, but I don't wanna torture this card any further
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
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
It's hand filtered so if you pick anything you probs won't make it through
Founders edition
That's it
yep
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
Not necessarily better but cheaper
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?
XD
I'm sure one of us would be willing to video call and walk you through, if that was acceptable to them
Yeah you've got a whole server of smart pc people and YouTube at your finger tips
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
Mobo swap is its self building a PC.
true
A motherboard swap is just as hard as build a pc from scratch
lol
Actually considering you have to clean the CPU, mobo swap may be marginally harder
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
Yea, that is called a new pc
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
thats a rlly solid build
like an integrated?
Nice, the M27Q is a good monitor (especially for the price), I've got one myself
and what cpu is that?
Intel 9th or 10th gen has 630 I believe
wow, the 3060ti FE at best buy was on sale tdy for a good 12 minutes in canada
sadly i missed it tho 
Do you live in Canada
yea
I’m trying to get another 3060ti fe or the 3060ti evga one
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
Yeah nice for mining or I’m thinking of building a vr/portable gaming rig
aye nice
I brought my pc to my friends house and it was large
Probably much easier with a small pc
lol ye
If I were to do itx I would need to get a gpu first and mine for a month prob
