i've been entering the shuffle for a month pluss now
I stopped trying lol and now 5900x stock is getting so much better
Yeah it was still GPU levels of bad
Oh for sure
Well no I’m getting the distro plate from EK
Eh, it will still look weird
So no need for any other res
It’s a pump res and in-out for everything, all in one
Probably wouldn’t be worth it to buy a big res just to fill in the space when I’d have the distro plate already
Yeah the pump is a D5 at 1500l/h too so
I kept screwing up that spec lmao, but anyways yeah I’ll use two 360mm radiators to keep up with a 3080 and the 5900x, and hopefully that combined with maybe hard lines although soft might look better imo should turn out to be pretty cool
would u be there for me
No
Definitely not 
ok
Is this where everyone gets to show off their Amperes? All 457 that Newegg has sold?
Here's one of mine lol
why is it not mounted in a machine?
Oh this was the original pic I had
Safe to assume Best Buy will restock gpus on Thursday? Or should I wake up for tomorrow lol
no one knows
samesies!
Worse cooling/overclockability than our gigabyte ones
also, stupid power connector
Pic of it in old case
Yeah 12 pin just extra work lol
DW it's in a 4000d airflow now 😌 
🤣 was gonna say, you living that NZXT life. open side panels and all
It actually did fine in my s340 cuz i kept the front panel off after the 3070 upgrade lol
Dw just haven't taken pic of it in 4000d, it looks so clean through the side panel tho cuz the black one has tinted glass 
yeah, am thinking of tinting the glass on my lancool ii. post pics man
Yeah lol but they look nice xd . Btw i sold my 3070
Im buying a 3080 now
I will when i get home, am out atm
gg!
Ohh damm, how much you get for it? And what 3080 you manage to snag?
1350$ . Didnt get 3080 yet so im using my old 1060 for now . I hope i will get one in the next week or 2
Good luck 🤞
Thanks
Surprised you didn't keep the 3070 till you got the 80 tbh lol
But for 1350 can't complain
Also you still a 1060 which is decent as a fall back
Mine would have been a r9 380 4gb but i sold that for €170 as soon as i got my 3070 cuz basically got 5 years out of that card for free lol
Nice
Exactly just play med/low
I dont know if i want to sell my 1060s
Its always good to have extra gpu
Maybe i will sell one of them
That's fair
You have 2?
I'd sell one if i were you
Yeah my brother had 1 too so when we get our 3080s we will probably sell one
We sold both gpus for 2700
That's fair yeah
And tbh 1060 level will play most games smooth at low/med
And i play most games at that anyway to get all the fps
XD
It's really not as bad as people make it out to be, they're like low quality :o but i play that way still and there's hardly a diff for the fps tank that you get
Yeah
looks like the GTX 1650 prices are going down slowly
1650 prices were up? who was buying it?
Might went up for your location i guess, but It's going down for ebay and some other websites.
one is going for 120$ in ebay rn.
Scam probably
looks like the 300$ GTX 1650 super is the better option then.
$350 from retailers in my region of the world 🤣
jesus.
yea, my dad is schizo with the older gen graphics cards.
I told him he is on sum bs, because they are still do good in 2021.
for the current market, this isnt too bad of a deal for its performance: https://www.ebay.com/itm/184874257880?hash=item2b0b5d4dd8%3Ag%3ATtAAAOSwwTtgvTUy&LH_BIN=1&LH_ItemCondition=3000
its similar to a GTX 1660 in gaming, but its a 300W card, so it needs a lot of power
would a 650w PSU work?
Better than the 500 retailers that still have them in stock are charging XD
insane.
Ikr lol
Scalpers and people who don't know better. I have a friend who recently mentioned he built a PC and got a 1650 because it was the only GPU under $1000CAD and I was like brooooo, why?
Only? There is no way you couldnt find something else for under C$1000. RX 580/570, GTX 1070/Ti, GTX 1060 3/6gb all should be well under C$1000.
Prebuilts are actually the better option rn and that's why lol
Well tbh 1060 3gb dumm and worse than 1050 ti but yeah should be able to find 1070/ti 1080/ti or 2060
True, but yea much better options than a 1650 for under C$1000
1070 was ~$550 CAD on release, cheapest one i could find is almost double
Welp, no clue where you or your friend are looking then
, https://www.ebay.ca/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=GTX+1070&_sacat=0&rt=nc&LH_Sold=1&LH_Complete=1
They are around C$700 from what I'm seeing.
Find great deals on eBay for GTX 1070. Shop with confidence.
At least locally
Wait 2-3 days for shipping for ~75% better card, or buy locally? ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Ofc i lose cell reception as soon as I get to work
I have this weird preference where I like to make sure used products are functional before buying them.
In December I picked up an R9 290X to use temporarily in my old rig i gave to a friend while I waited for my 3060
Well, future might want to look harder - https://offerup.com/item/detail/1218823049?q=GTX+1070. Don't know exactly where your located some places in CA are more than others.
Budget at that time was $300 tops, the friend who just built the rig told me after the fact.
Oh well that makes so much more sense, your saying that the whole build was C$1000. Thought you meant that your friend paid C$1000 for a 1650.
Nooooo
Okay there are two different friends who are involved with this conversation
Friend A was the one I gave my i7-4790k + GTX 1070 build to in November, the other was the person who built a PC last month and bought a 1650 for about $100 too much because he couldn't find any new GPU less than $1000 and really isn't computer savvy.
Yeah it really sounded like you paid 1000 cad for a 1650
I'm garbage at articulation
For a 1000 build a 1650 is decent
I dont know how much his build cost
Wait so did they pay 1000 for a 1650 I'm confused now
I said my friend mentioned "it was the only GPU under $1000 he could find"
Yeah, nah I'd never pay $1,000 for a GPU unless it was top tier.
3080 Ti being $2,200CAD is highway robbery
1000 could get you a scalped 3060. you shouldn't buy from scalpers, but that really puts it into perspective
That's CAD msrp? But that includes tax right?
$550 got me a 3060 Ti
No it doesn't. That's not even MSRP, it's what they're selling for at retail though. With 5% GST it's $2,310. Other provinces have 7% more tax as well
Yeah, that's $455 USD which is near MSRP
Ohh yeah i was thinking that was a high msrp but what can you expect when it's basically a 3090
Yeah so bout 300$ is cheaper than 3090 seems right tho
Since the 80 ti is basically a 90
cries in 15% V.A.T.
Cries in 23%
wtf are you?
Irish XD
23%??
Bruv
what are they doing to you guys over there
23%
Idk around 20s is the standard vat rate in Europe
Yall in NA has smol vat
it's sales tax over here
i live in the states, so it varies depending on where you are
Yeah ik but same thing
But isnt the largest sales tax in the us like 10%?
my state has a sales tax that's about a third of yours
10.25%
Yeah exactly lol
it's not universal, some states have none
Yea, I've got 6%. Couldn't imagine 23% tax
3070 for 720 wasn't so bad anymore 😛
If I could get a 3070 for $720 it wouldn't be bad. Issue is getting it for $720.
Yeah but i got it for 720 including 23% tax lol
Well 720€ but still
Yea so about $850 if I can do mental math.
Bout that but we have different msrps but yeah
Bout €550 before tax
True, but even at $850 not bad. Cheapest I can get them is $1000 from a local company
Yeye and I've already mined a good bit with it
Yea, I've debated mining with my 1070-Ti get the cost of the card down to 0. Currently it's costed me $90 so even a week of mining should be able to offset the cost.
Sold 50 or so back when crypto real high then have 200€ waiting at the current exchange rates
Oh, last time I looked a few months ago could make ~$500 a month with 4x RX 570s.
True yea prices dropped a lot, I don't keep up with pricing at all.
Even at crypto spike prices it's 6-7$ with a 3070
70$ /month atm with a 1070 ti at 10c/kwh
So yea still not bad, about a month and a week
In about 8 or so months could offset the cost of my entire build. Cost me $545 to build.
Nice
Well that's assuming crypto doesn't drop off but yeah
Free /almost free build
True, could very easily drop off. But could very easily jump up again.
Yeah true
Especially with computer market planning to go back to normal hopefully end of next year, would be nice to have a build that cost nothing to build
Sell it just before market dies and take whatever it sells for + $545 can easily get some 3070 rig with it.
BB drop today?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Nah, Thursday for the 3070TI
Where in the hell. 3090s are just going between 2500-3600 on Kijiji now
Usually they drop every other tuesday and today is that tuesday
They haven't done every other Tuesday in months
That's cad not usd
I know
Ohh ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Kijiji is Canada's craiglist
They clearly didn't look very hard lol
You can't really scalp 3090 and prices are going down
Before 3070s were going $1800CAD and now with the crypto crash and other circumstances, they are now back down to $1500 CAD (scalped pricing)
Are they ?
Honestly C$3600 isn't too bad for a 3090. Thats ~US$3000 which is what most go for. And at C$2500 think thats about US$2000. While I have no need for a 3090 $2000 is less than 2080-Tis are going for.
Ohh nice
Ohh helll no
Exhibit A, just listed an hour ago, $1350. 2 months ago this was selling at $1700-1800
Last time I checked, which was pre crash
Ehh 1 picture and stock picture sus
Ah I see
They look bit better lol
Yea there's been a stock resupply of vision cards in my city
They do look
tbf
A guy I almost bought a 1060 off of got two 3090s on launch and sold each for $4500
Yikes
Reason: Bad word usage
The $2800 MSI 3090 I saw the other day is no longer listed, but prices are near this picture
Sadly I know some of these guys
I honestly think that people have reached their limit. The prices are sky high, but there is stock, which wasnt the case even a month ago. The general paublic has decided that this is ridiculous
Yep
in my part of the world anyway
The only ones buying now are either desperate or miners
Actually even miners aren't buying as much anymore
Yeah i have a feeling miners haven't been buying gpus(especially scalped) for at least a month or 2
i stopped bothering with best buy, even though they're pretty much the only way to get a card for msrp
the newegg souffle is my only hope
Register for evga notification system?
ha
Few months
and get a card in 4 years?
6 isn't that bad actually
but i'm not that desperate for a card right now, because of my temp 580
it gets the job done
It depends on which queue you're looking at, but yeah the EVGA queues will take a while
Given my location, that's the closest bet for me.
ah
i live 20 minutes away from a microcenter, so i might drop by there a couple times
AMD Radeon PRO W6800 for gaming lol
And they'll get their card in 2025 then XD
When was the last time best buy dropped on tuesday?
3060ti, 2025, similar to my 1060 now 😄
Their drops are irregular now and have been since end of February first part of March. With the 3070TI dropping Thursday I'd expect their drop to be that day.
That makes sense thanks
They were regular Tuesday drops for about 2 months then they changed it up. I got mine on a Tuesday January drop
@tender mulch did you use the app or the website?
Website
Click add to cart, when it says please wait, WAIT and don't refresh. When it turns yellow again, add to cart and check out as fast as you can. I had to choose a pickup location 1.5 hours from me but it worked.
If you refresh while it says Please Wait you lose your spot in line
Okay thank you
YW
I’m trying to get a 3060ti so I’m just hoping for a lucky drop
I think the 3070TI drop will be in store only though like the 3080TI
why do all the 3090s look so wild lol
Water cooled
I want 3090 vision 
RTX 3080 Ti’s are available here but costs +2100€. Not worth it
damn
Newegg skipping the middle man scalpers and just scalping themselves.
Asus strix cough cough
dem strix are $$
i only put in for the cards at the $400ish range, I won't give up my dignity for frames lol
EVGA is much higher quality quality compared to those other companies, which makes sense.
Is $1200 for a 3080TI cheap?
Cheap as it gets the msrp
yeah they're a really good cost/performance cost at least for a casual user like me
I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s for a “casual user” as it more of an enthusiasts graphics card right now. I guess it depends on what your needs are for a casual experience.
like I don't game a ton and I use 1080p lol
3080ti is overkill right now, or at least “future proof” I hate that word, for a while.
im looking for a 3060ti
Best bang for the buck card but rare af
cause my 1060 is a little weak for what my friends like to play
Better luck getting a 3070 tbh
Yeah I’d try to got for a 3060 or a 3060ti if I were you.
I would but I cant spend that much
3060 tis and 3070s are going in the same price range lol
2025 xd
also since the cryto rate of return has drastically slowed down we might see an influx of cards from people who are mad the money machine is slow
I was gonna buy a 3060 off a guy who was using it to mine but he wanted 700 for it 💀
Doubt still pretty profitable
relatively, but not as high as the greedy people wanted
it's like the scalpers, they just want the most money in the shortest amount of time. Once this is over they'll move onto the next thing lol
At least that's what is the vibe of the people I know in the market
4000s series time
Won’t 4000 series be in 2022
2025 is when we’ll be able to get 3000 series into our hands
In my country the equivalent shops of newegg sell for at least 4xmsrp all RTX models 😄
Ive held 14 3000s boxes and 3 GPUs in hand
Official shops, not scalpers.
So I guess I had GPU diamond hands at one point
The shops that are listed on Nvidia website.
Ehh yeah but like q4 2022 so 2022/2023 I'm exadurating a bit
Excited to see all the techtubers rip on NVIDIA some more tomorrow
Looks like nzxt is soon joining the aib market
Where'd you see that?
How long until they release a GPU that actually lights on fire?
who wanna buy an i3
Rule 9
doubt, they would just outsource to asrock like they did with n7 mobo if they did lol
gotta love having dual 3090s
It was on a Facebook ad i saw earlier. They were actually poking fun at their fiery products on the post
That's really gross marketing tbh considering the safety hazard they created 😬
bruh people are buying up all the GTX 1660 supers from bestbuy smh.
BestBuy isnt getting new 1660 Supers... out of production
I just talked to some bestbuy employee, saying they are still restocking them.
some how even though the GTX 16 series are discontinued.
who knows been discontinued since 30-series launch iirc so doubt they are restocking but who knows. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Another sad day. Newegg shuffle denied.
I doubt the thieves were miners……
yo i need help my friends pc is saying he has a 5600m and a ryzen 9 4900h but he has a desktop
the only part im confused about is that he said that he opened up the computer before and there was a graphics card and i thought mobile cards were just sodered to the mobos
What's the PC?
The graphics card in my laptop (GTX870M) is fully removable and upgradeable, so no, they're not always soldered in.
They generally won't be using a standard PCI-E slot, however.

I bought this for $420 back when
The glory days
Happy early 5 year anniversary
damn the RX 6700xt on amazon goes out of stock less then milisecond.
#makecartreservationsnormal
Imagine the loss Amazon would face if they gave people 5 minutes after putting an item into their cart
I bought a 6700xt but I ended up returning it because I overpaid for it and performance was barely better than the 3070 in the games I play
If you're in the US Microcenter seems to have a steady stock of AMD GPUs. They're pricy, but about the same as on Newegg from shuffle anyway. Nvidia cards still sell out the minute they open.
Microcenters usually only have 6700xts and 6900xts from my experience
I’ve never seen a 6800/6800xt in any of the microcenters by me
Update on GPU issue from about a week ago, we found a ROG STRIX 2060 for $509 (after tax) at Microcenter and replaced the RX 550.
I've never once seen a 3060 ti in stock anywhere, even Best Buy drops
(Shuffle doesn't count but there's only been a few anyway)
They had a few on the shuffle. Not much though
I don't count shuffle as "in stock" because of the way it's organised. You're in a raffle for the right to purchase the products. Kinda sucks but it's the best we have now tbh.
Yeah and it sucks
My buddy built his box finally with the 3060 I got for him from a shuffle
I finally got my TUF-RTX3060-O12G looking right. Swapped out the RGB strip I put in with and aRGB strip. There's like 41 LEDs in there now
It's borderline obnoxious now
Nah it’s #pride month
lmfao
🥸
He’s waiting to get a 3080 either thru step up or shuffle
His old pc had a 960 in it
But still they teased at releasing gpu buried in the comments
The card comes so boring tho
Yeah. That base 3060 had zero LEDs
old pic btw. My AIO is a Freezer II & it's on the top
haha not anymore
RGB strips are usually 10mm. I foudn the aRGBs at 5mm wide so they fit so much easier
The 3070 for my other build has decent lighting but I gotta take it all off to put the EK waterblock on it
sadly, I live far away from microcenter.
theres some amd cards on Roguecast .. 6700xt nitro+ for 899$ and 6900xt SE Nitro+ for 1849$ 
they dropping some 6800 for about 1100$ frequently too
absolutely garbage prices
yeah but its still better than shuffle prices for 6700xt lol
id say camp on amd store for msrp couse amd aib prices are crazy
I just want a 1080ti
I looking for white 3080 or 90 
i have a 750ti currently and i love it and i wish it was beefier
especially for the price
so why 1080ti
3060 have same performance as 1080ti i think
its beefier than the 750ti no?

1080ti is cheaper than 30 series no?
not today lol
ahhh. but the componenets you would need to support a 10 series is cheaper than 30 series no?
same components required
less power psu if you go for a 3060ti
? what? no. not at all.
only psu may be effected but gpu is gpu
3060 / 3070 use less power than a 1080ti I think.
3060ti beats the 1080ti while being cheaper and consuming less power
and thats a fact
yeah 3060ti is best card for price but its really hard to get now
so is a 1080ti
but 3060 is easy to get and cheap tho
Doesnt mean they are easy to get
you got lucky
thats it.
making statements off a sample size of 1 is extremely dumb
umm maybe idk lol still id say 3060 is easy to get than 3060ti 🤔
then you would say lies
if thats what you would say
how do you think?
yep
Reason: Duplicated text
lol
lol
1660ti / super will play most games just fine on 1080p medium to high detail
read the question
man asked for how it compares
not how a 1660 performs
I camped a lot for getting gpu and i think its worth it
Uhhh did people realize Dr. Oz is apparently on Roguecast's board?
please calm down, im just giving a little more information
thanks for the info vic
pleasure, my dude
what do you intend on doing on the pc?
Im not mad just saying
1660s is great card tho but not for todays price...
What do you intend on using the card for?
yeah tomorrow is 3070ti launch day so good luck everyone to get card...
literally no card is good at todays prices 🤣
GT 710
I stand corrected 😆
streaming
streaming? then get at least a 20 series
idk I scored few cards actually.. dont say its easy but you need to give efford to it lol
even 16 series has nvenc
and yeah market getting drying day by day
or rather the 1660s
im glad i got cards early
yeah, 16 have nvec but I dont think they can handle gaming and streaming at 1080p at the same time
depends on what game
well not well anyway
which brings me to the next question
what game ya gonna be streaming @pallid monolith
all those a 1660 can handle
my suggestion is either get a 3060ti for under 450
or a 1660 super for around 300
the 3060ti is your best bet if you gonna camp
or amd 6700xt for msrp
i would like to stream some more titles in the future, like red dead, gta, apex so i'll take you up on that
6700xt is bad
I dont like amd much either but got amd cards (6800xt and then 6900xt) since cant get 3080 or 90 but its better than nothing 🤔
3060 bud. or if you can get a good price for a used 2070 maybe.
yeah id say 6800 for 580$ is great since most 3060s are about to 500$
3060 isnt all that great tbh
3060ti FAR better at not a big price increase
2070 is about as good as a 3060
yeah? I am just unde the impression that the 3060ti is FREAKIN hard to get, cos all of their chips are put into 3070s?
I have 3070 vision for gaming and its great card for 1080p max retting with ray tracing
nah its no tougher than other 30 series cards
ok, my bad
but the 3060 and 2070s would be much better than the 1660s, for future proofing. prices being reasonable ofc
slightly easier to get a 1660 super on ebay
also its a great card
and a massive upgrade over that 750ti OP uses
true true
i wrote your recommendations down, i'll keep u posted @magic wing
the 750ti is amazing
its 7 years old now
i'm still able to stream val, league, dota 2 (with decent internet connection)
yep hope you get that card
👍
3070ti reviews going up.
And they are not kind
why should they be?
3070 ti looks alright, especially if you can snag one at msrp
all except linus, who lives in fantasy land
Oh You should watch gamersnexus 3070ti review. He spent half of it educating the shill.
Ehh i mean it performed about the middle of most games between 70 and 80
Lol haven't got a chance yet
Yeah, but the uplift from a 3070 is not great for the price
It's not surprising, but both Ti cards don't offer good value
Absolutely not
It's got a nice speedy mem tho XD
imo the biggest value offered is that it means new EVGA queues are opening so some people might be able to get better spots in those queues
nah man, its only lightly faster than the non ti 70
They should have just made more non ti cards.
THIS!!!!
Yeah it's like what 7% faster than the 3070?
Well the 80 ti does compared to the 3090 which it's basically a 3090 with less vram
7-10ish yeah
Not really
Yeah but people who "should" buy a 3090 need the vram
Completely agree but there's a binning process and they want to sell those bins at a higher price, happens all the times, the k sku for intel cpus for example
ofc a bunch of people will still buy 3090s or 3080Tis just for gaming, but that doesn't make either good value
Oh don’t get me wrong. I’m for the economics of it.
But they are deliberately setting the prices well above profit
Ehhh not really, 3080 ti out performs 90 in every but like 8k
Eh no. The reviews I have seen put the 3080Ti at a very similar level as the 90
Yeah but the 80 ti slightly winning in most games
Eh it’s a mixed bag
3070TI is hot garbage. 7-10 FPS more for $100 :/
And then the AIBs will tack $200-300 on top of it
3070 is deff the sweet spot but if you can get one at msrp ntb
Not necessarily, there where a few 80 tis in shuffle for 1200 on launch day
HUB and GN had the 80Ti behind the 90 in all games where they tested both but whatever dude
Yep
GN only tested 4 games
I’m with @green harness on this
Poor review IMO
Agreed, but I'm not going to go search every single review out there
That’s because the concentrate on the physical performance more
3080TI meets and even exceeds 3090 in more than a few games
And the two outlets did test different games, so it works out to more than 4
Jayz2cents, linus and derbaur had 80 ti beeting 90 iirc
In a few things
Agreed. I'm just saying the 80Ti isn't better most of the time. They're functionally equivalent for gaming right now imo
Yep
Yes but it was kinda a 50 50
There are even rumors of the 3090 stopping production now
As I've been saying they're functionally equivalent for gaming
And they're both bad value for gaming
Possible, considering they having hard time with the g6x
Yeah lol just for the ppl that want those extra 2 fps XD
better than not having a card lol
So is a 15$ igpu from intel XD
:/ a card that actually can play games well
X)
i mean i am using a 11500 for a bit before i get a gpu so i guess you are right
get an intel cpu with int. graphics, buy an ethernet cable, use geforce now
boom, now you're gaming without a gpu
yeah thats what i do with my 2012 imac. GeforceLater ftw
Hello guys at what time do you think i should start camping to get a 3070 ti? 🤩
Better get camping
now
Camping where? Microcenter?
3070TI is online for Best Buy. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/nvidia-geforce-rtx-3070-ti-8gb-gddr6x-pci-express-4-0-graphics-card-dark-platinum-and-black/6465789.p?skuId=6465789
damn, i thought they would change that
I was planning best buy😢
When will the website release them? 12 AM Central?
IDK about that
Fudge nipples
that is an interesting swear
XD
its better than mine gpu somehow still
Lol
Just managed to buy a Asus RTX 2060oc...
FOr how much?
They're all ripping on the 3070ti
How is founders edition cooling on the 30 series?
Not bad actually. Not as good as some AIB's but decent
Good enough if I’m not overclocking?
Oh yeah
Should be yeah
Ok thanks
But what if I overclock my 3070ti 
400 euro 👀
In Spain they seem to have a fair amount of this model today.
What model what website
I got it from a shop where I live bud. It's a RTX 2060 dual oc GDDR6
Thanks, I thought it's a 3060 something 😄
Anything within your budget that’s available
Should i get the 3060 or is it not worth
no
no. 3060 is not enough of an improvement over the 2060. you need a 3070/3080 at least/ imho
roughly equivalent to a 2060 super
Good luck
And hard to get
yeah. I wouldnt look to upgrade till next year. your 2060 is perfectly fine
Rn you could scalp it lol for $200-400 more
Make profit, buy next card lol
Sorry i feel the need to scalp now as well
I miss the weekly BB drops
I've been selected in the newegg shuffle. But I'm not sure if I should go for it lol.
mostly because I would have to buy a motherboard I don't want or need to go with it.
RTX 2060s are worth about $500 in current market, so if you get lucky and find a 2070 for about $500 it's a free upgrade. But for time being your not going to easily find anything much better than a 2070 (Unless you get lucky at BB drops of course) for $500.
Depends where you're selling
Not really. eBay, OfferUp, Facebook Marketplace. Most if not all will be listed for $500+
On ebay 2060s are going for more than that but ofc you have to account for fees and such
On r/hardwareswap if you want to sell there they tend to go for around 550
Well yea I'm saying $500 as in could sell in 24-48 hours price. You can definitely get more, but to get rid of it ASAP $500.
Which bundle?
Asus TUF 3080ti and ROG Strix B550-F
but I'm not doing it.
Newegg is trying some shady crap. They have the same GPU listed under two different prices, and the one in this bundle is at $700 more than MSRP. The bundled parts separated aren't even worth $1400.
Sorry I ain't playing that game.
I didn't see that OC edition. All I see are all the specs matching. How is OC worth $700 more? That's crap.
oh well. Got all excited for nothing.
the cards are otherwise identical, RGB and all.
Oc edition aint worth more than an extra 20$ lol
That’s why I’m only hitting on evga.
They for the most part have had msrp
Except for the overpriced PSU
But... have you heard of Ark?
ARK isnt that hard to run tbh
Word, there are settings I still cannot max out with 11900k and 3090 combined
Also rendering too much ground details may hamper your sight and be surprised
So you kind of need to make a choice, functionality or beauty.
That's beside the GPU.
I mean it's one thing when you play casual and dinos need 10 hours to kill you, and one thing when you suddenly get ripped apart by a dino that you didn't see getting closer 😛
Yup, the game is at core a multiplayer.
I loved it 😄 Sadly my friends don't really play mps
So that hampered me playing it as much as I wanted
i finally won a newegg shuffle boys! but not for what I wanted...
any1 want an ASRock Radeon RX 6900 XT PHANTOM GAMING D Graphics Card 16GB GDDR6 AMD RDNA2 (RX6900XT PGD 16GO) and ASRock B550 TAICHI AM4 AMD B550 SATA 6Gb/s ATX AMD Motherboard combo for $1994.98?
Ouch that price
Thanks, but I am past Ark. I may casually check the latest DLC and that's it.
2 years ago, another story 😛
part of me wants to just scalp the card and make $500 but I wont turn to the dark side
gimme
Ooof, good card but too much for it imo
But if you need a card and are willing to pay that price, it is up there with 3090 in raster perf iirc
I thought that same thing... I just don't want to hassle with reselling. I'd rather just buy a card and be done with it.
wutt
Also gotta pay a 10% ebay fee anyway lol
i dont need it, im just looking to see if someone else would want the shuffle in my place
I don't even mess with ebay.
I'm a buyer only on there.
Thats fair, gl selling that then, unless you go door to door of desperate high end gamersXD
still, it's been the only chance I've had at getting a card at all so somehow it's still tempting to just be like F it and buy the overpriced bundle 🤣
Yeah
but....I'm resisting.
hm?
so how you got the email so quickly?
u get it quickly if u win
😦
shoot, I got it right at 2pm. My guess is no one's willing to pay that much for the OC TUF and ROG mobo combo lol
2pm Central that is
i only have about an hour to buy it or i guess it goes to the next guy
Not all the time tho
I have lost shuffles due to removing items from my cart. And once your cart is touched you either tap it like it’s hot or pass

Most of my wins came at 6pm EST
yeah... I'm just gonna have to pass this time.. I can't justify it
if it was $700 less I'd absolutely jump on it, and figure out what to do with the mainboard later. But I'm not dropping 2k on something I don't need.
Binned it not binned.
how do u pass on the shuffle? just remove from cart?
the times I entered the shuffle I get the email around 530PM PST\
Guess so, or let the timer run out
removed it
maybe ill get lucky next time
if it was a 3080/ti/3090 i wouldve paid w/e the price
Honestly you can ignore it as Newegg will just do it for you when the time runs out.
2k for a 3080 too much lol, 1300 max imo
yeah i would pay 1300 in 35 heartbeats
bc im cautious
Lol
So I just watched the LTt video on the 3070ti.
Heh Linus stands by his words. Then you look at the credits and he didn’t even write the script.
Pfft shill
Yeah, Linus always seems to just exude excitement about new tech. Doesn't really look at value. And then he does stuff like the 8k GPU videos....
He's an entertainer not an informer
Linus reviews evey script with his writers
I mean it's all a question of goals. I think with his goal of having this large media group and huge audience he'd have to lean into the entertainment side. I think a channel more focused on information is destined to have a smaller audience in general
Frankly, I found the GN review of the 3070ti WAY more entertaining than Linus'. Steve's sarcasm level was OVER 9000!
I didn't watch Linus' as I've mostly stopped watching his reviews. I only watch him for odd tech and such
It was quite dull actually.
His conclusion: if you can buy a 3070ti at msrp, do it, because its better value than anything at scalper prices. Which doesn't even make sense!
how does it compare to a stock 3080?
garbage, its basically just slightly better (8-10%) than a 3070
pff. so another cash grab in other words.
yeah, even worse than the 3080ti
nvidia has been saying they doing stuff for gamers and then exploiting the situation at the same time
bottom line is, companies gotta make shareholders happy before ANYTHING else.
and if you can sell something for 20% more, then you do that.
true
lol pretty much anything that isn't scalped is better value than scalper prices, so he's not wrong I guess??
exactly. just a bs statement
yo
do u guys think i should sell my 3070 and use a 6700xt instead
I get to save more money that way
do you have a 6700xt?
yea
Ah, that makes it trickier. If you don't really care about RTX, DLSS, and NVENC, then that's fine, if you care about those things then keep the 3070
I was going to say if you don't have the 6700xt just stick with the 3070, but this is closer to personal preference I think
alright thanks for the advice
i dont stream so i dont need nvec
but dlss i kinda care about
yeah AMD's competing technology for DLSS isn't out yet so it's hard to say how good it will be. Chances are it won't be as good as DLSS 2.0
yea i figured
Well i guess il see
RTX is pretty cool though but i dont see my self using it that much
yeah it hasn't been implemented in too many games and it still comes with a big performance hit
Its 100% gonna be worse
There are no chances involved
yup. post processing an already rendered image, with software? thats not good
If you care about any nvidia features, sell the 6700xt, you'll get more than msrp for it anyway
you guys know which 3070 ti's are gonna be available
alright
Any deals on a Nvidia gt 1030 that costs about 100$
Just the founders one for now
I think the 3070ti is gonna be an online sale
what is a reasonable price for a gtx 1070
Reasonable as in what you should pay or what you should sell for in this market?
If looking to buy I’d say $200 is a fair price but most are selling for closer to $400
1070's are boss
But look at some if the mid range and lower end amd cards there cheaper
$250-300
Not with these scalpers and chip shortages
I am building my first pc on the 12th I am so excited, https://pcpartpicker.com/list/fbK8t8 this is my list
System Builder
Do you have RTX 3070?
Lucky you
get lucky and show up to microcenter 15 minutes after they restocked
yes
When will they restocked
it is random
🙃
I just got really lucky
What does RTX 3070 use for? Mining? Gaming?
I don’t play 3D game
I think 2060 should good for me
I am going to game and mine when I not using it
Any GPU between 2060 and 3070?
yeah like 5
2080 is also hard to buy
$599???
Yes
daheck
Bad
Okie
original MSRP was like, $250-300

…
Never mind the

Or just buy a aliens desktop with 3070 inside, cost $2500 after tax

I got a 3070 for 640 I would hold out
will the 3070ti manage on a 650w gold psu?
Im only running a 5600x but i want a gpu
Anyone know when the gpu is dropping?
Hey @tender mulch so you know how I overclocked my gt710 and that caused problems
Well now I’m still having problems despite not even having the oc software installed anymore
This is a fresh install of windows cause windows got corrupted again from a crash
And now im having constant black screens and crashes
tmrw, esstimated 9am est
what ive seen
its a guess based on when the others dropped
are you online or going in person cause if inperson the lines might be to long already
^^
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/fbK8t8 how important are those notes at the bottom?
Anyone know when the 4000 series might be coming
well by the notes i read it states that the motherboard might need a bios update to be compatible with your processor, and the usb-c headers dont exist on that motherboard, and the case restrictions is gonna be there almost all the time
the bios are ok on the box it says 5000x ready
thats why i said might
but they give you that warning as a heads up as some may be compat but wasnt updated for it
yeah I just was letting you know
That just means it's hardware compatible, you still might need to update bios
oh that is weird
Depends mostly on how long it was sitting in the warehouse
It's not like food service where the rule is first in, first out. You just grab whatever off the shelf in a warehouse. It might have been sitting on that shelf for 6 months.
yeah
is the EVGA XC3 ultra a good 3070?
Ye
i got it for 640 usd
how is the performance compered to the other ones?
you got a 3070 for 640? @verbal cedar
yes
I got so lucky
I was planing on camping for a 3070 ti but they had the 3070 when I got there so I didn't need to camp
3070ti launch seems really early
it will be 6am pst?
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/qKf7NP what do I have not marked as purchased?
any links besides the bestbuy one for the 3070ti yet?
Check evga
Yeah basically same thing
I may be wron I am tiered
ight bet
Where'd you get it?
9am est is what I've heard yeah
microcenter
Wish there were stores around me that sold in person:/
In Europe we barely have stores, AND we also pay 100-150 USD more for each model, because if it's 1200 USD in US, here it's 1200 Euro, somehow they consider it fair 😄
Microcenter
Well they gotta account for tax lol, tax not included in pricing in US
Yeah it is dumb
I am wondering if they make anything locally, I mean within the EU.
You would think that would be a smart move for tax and stability reasons.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
If you've got evga elite access, just refresh this link when it's about time. It should be getting activated at launch
Lauch is 9am?
Cant believe I’m doing this but I’m skipping first period just for a chance at this gpu
If the website doesn't crash like last time. Took me 2 hours to get in queue
Try going through to the actual listing instead of going through the main page
Which is a better buy? The XC3 or the ftw
Ftw but xc3 is usually cheaper
You realize they use a queue so it's not supposed to show in stock at all really right?
Still working here fwiw
Yep
Still if it works but is slow that's a big improvement from the 80Ti launch where it went down for 80 minutes
I'm an elite member so I hope I have sum luck
it works for me too but very slow
Ye very slow
Gotta get in fast
where 3070 ti best buy :3
evga ded
bruh, cmon best buy
now is down
Shuffle is live too https://www.newegg.com/product-shuffle
3070 ti dropped yet?
Everything I try to do says evga is down lol
Best Buy still says 'coming soon'
I don't see any on Best buy
made it to where it says auto notify
but crashed when puting in info
Y'all are mean for killing evga
They need a better site, like cmon
did newegg die
Lol and we thought zotac had a bad website
3070 ti is overpriced in the shuffle huh? 😔
Newegg says auto notify
Cuz it's in the shuffle
Ye
stonks
I woke up at 5 am for Best Buy, cmon bruh
but what timezone
ok good
Somebody revive evga, they got a ray gun
zotac ded
Zotac doesn't have ray gun tho
Wow EVGA site crashed already from too many people. They should have been ready for that since last night.
I mean you can only prepare so much, if any website is getting flooded with a million bots or people there are gonna be issues
It says they're at full capacity try again later :/
do you have a 3000 series gpu?
Rip zotac and evga
Can someone drop the link for evga 3070 ti
Well easier to say that people shouldn't be desperate when you have one 😆 People are trying their best at a shot of landing one
bruh, the page loads then it won't let me do the notify
someone link it please
and I can understand frustration witha website not working when you wake up stupid early
thx
not that you can get to the link though lol
I got my notification for one of them so keep trying
And there are people still waiting
what better way to try and stay up for launch?
or wake up for a launch
notification for wut
like I managed to enter the auto notify
for a 3070ti?
oh okay
Lol
why does the xc3 not have a notify :/
Idk
The point is it's a bit unfair to say "dont be so desperate, thats your fault!" when you already have a card
damn guess there isnt an auto notify for xc3
that is tough
evga h8s not rgb users ig
I mean if their site is constantly throwing errors for every launch they're not prepared tbh
they need to jus let me put my name in the queue like pls evga
