Our only hope rn is the intel gpu

vital oriole
#

I doubt it'll be that good yet

hot folio
#

I know but a man can hope

livid idol
hot folio
#

It most likely won’t even be focused for gaming

vital oriole
#

But I do hope Intel doesn't decide to drop it so soon

#

pls give it time

#

Another competitor is always welcome

#

unlike some that condems this idea so badly

hot folio
#

I wonder if Nvidia will decide to start making CPUs now that intel is starting on a GPU

vital oriole
#

I doubt they're interested in x86

#

But arm, surely

#

Literally on the process of acquiring the arm company too

livid idol
#

Well, that got stalled by the EU anti-trust laws, but they already have a partnership with ARM

cerulean rover
#

Intel going for sifive for fun

hot folio
#

Oh yeah I remember reading about that

#

Didn’t they offer like 2 billion for it?

livid idol
livid idol
hot folio
#

I was talking about Intel and Sifive

livid idol
#

Oh that

#

Yeah they offered 2 bil but no word on current status of a deal

#

Risc-v is making for a risk-y investment

supple otter
#

is a gtx 570 better than a rx 460 idk what one to use

livid idol
supple otter
#

ok thank you

stark raptor
#

i have a question, is the 3070 TIE better than the 2080 Ti ?

#

does it worth to upgrade to ?

livid idol
#

Probably not worth upgrading, especially for the price. Maybe 5-10% better depending on what you play.
Back to you Steve

halcyon plover
#

If you have 2080ti dont upgrade

#

Wait like 3 more years

stark raptor
#

thanks for your answers

#

i'll wait for the 4k series they might be better

halcyon plover
#

Yeah and 2080ti is good for 1440p gaming so you dont need the upgrade tbh

livid idol
#

Yeah, hopefully AMD catching up like they did is the sign Nvidia needs to kick their dev teams into high gear

stark raptor
#

Actually i don't trust AMD anymore because i had many issues with their HW component especially the GPU

livid idol
#

If you're talking about the 5700XT or earlier, they fixed most of the problems when Lisa Su took over as CEO. They invested a lot more into the drivers and hardware teams.

# magic wing Whats a 3070 tie

One of the Nvidia spokespersons said "TIE" instead of "T-I" so now GN is using it as a meme, right alongside "Back to you, Steve" and "Thanks, Steve"

magic wing
#

Its memememememememe now

stark raptor
#

while with NVIDIA they are more reliable when solving issues

livid idol
#

There's no more waiting, the problems are solved right now. All the issues that plagued the 5700XT are nonexistent in the 6000 series.

stark raptor
#

but still AMD is below NVIDIA when comes to performance

livid idol
#

Not really

magic wing
#

I havent faced any issues on my 570 either

magic wing
#

not in raster

magic wing
stark raptor
#

yes but you have 3080 TIE and 3090

#

they are the top

livid idol
#

Yeah, and AMD has 6900XT and 6900

magic wing
#

6900XT exists

#

also AMD has funny number haha advantage

#

so automatically better

#

/s

livid idol
stark raptor
#

i don't think that 6900XT can beat the 3090

livid idol
#

Yeah it can't beat it (in everything) but...

magic wing
magic wing
livid idol
#

AC has always been AMD favored

magic wing
#

Yep

#

Its even pops up amd logos on launch lul

stark raptor
#

i think NVIDIA is smart to let AMD to give all they have and then kaboom NVIDIA's lethal GPU

#

will come next year

livid idol
#

Ok fanboy

magic wing
#

X to doubt

stark raptor
magic wing
#

features and technology will also go to tie soon maybe

magic wing
stark raptor
#

i'm just sick of these two companies i want to see a real competition in the GPU world

magic wing
#

smart

stark raptor
#

no they are sharing the cake

magic wing
#

also Intel is coming up with gpus too

livid idol
#

The days of "Nvidia is superior in every way" are gone, now we have to nitpick differences between GPUs including how Nvidia has a bunch of features only a small number of people use

stark raptor
#

not really a competition

magic wing
stark raptor
#

intel !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

livid idol
stark raptor
#

LOL

#

i will wait till next year to see what they could do

#

and then i will decide

livid idol
#

That's fair, market sucks right now anyway, hopefully next gen is a little better price and stock

stark raptor
#

yes i hope it too

cosmic bluff
#

Sorry buddy but i hate to bring up rule #9

magic wing
#

Rule 9 loll

novel edge
#

I was traveling and didn't get to see, did anybody get in the EVGA queue for the 3070ti and already get one ordered?

clever pagoda
#

a few people did

#

currently it's up to the people that got in the queue at 6:18 a.m

dreamy dragonBOT

novel edge
#

Nice, I hope the link helped

real meteor
#

Do any companies that make AMD graphics cards have a queue system like EVGA does?

vital oriole
#

Nope

#

Not any that I know of

#

But you can fish the AMD cards from amd.com

#

Reference design but good enough

magic wing
#

Power filtering is 💩

#

lotta coil whine

vital oriole
#

Better than no gpu

hot folio
#

Temps also arent that good on AMD ref

acoustic ginkgo
#

Right now, if you need a graphics card... the card you can buy is the good card.

magic wing
#

A little bit of messing with curves and they get a lot better

acoustic ginkgo
#

... I should really buckle down today and finish putting my tower together so I can finally let this laptop rest.

magic wing
acoustic ginkgo
#

...yes. I've had a lot of distractions/chores/etc going on.

karmic crag
#

the 2021 gpu market has me considering buying a 3060 for almost 500 bucks

halcyon plover
#

Its not so bad tbh@karmic crag

karmic crag
#

the market or the price

halcyon plover
#

The price

#

People are paying 500 for much worst cards

#

Also you can mine the money back

karmic crag
#

true

halcyon plover
#

3060 is not so bad mining with the driver

#

You can get like 2.5$ a day at today rates

I wish there was micro center near me 😦

late haven
#

lol i bought a gtx 1070 that was supposed to be broken but ended up working just fine

tender mulch
#

GO buy a lotto ticket XD

late haven
#

btw

#

i only have a 500w psu

#

could i like overclock it or smthn?

vital oriole
#

the gpu?

late haven
#

yes

vital oriole
#

nope

#

that psu is already pushing it stock

late haven
#

will it be fine with a 650w?

clever pagoda
#

Do you have to get a voucher for microcenter?

#

or can you just call them and see if they have a card

vital oriole
#

lol calling em wouldn't work anyway

#

you gotta camp at one of their stores

#

people are gonna snatch it in no time

clever pagoda
#

How do peeps know they got em tho

vital oriole
#

news

clever pagoda
#

Like a stock notification?

vital oriole
#

well kinda

#

they also eye for any gpu launches

I was at the microcenter in Houston saturday.

#

They had 6800, 6800xt and 6900xts in stock.

#

And a few 1650super OC

novel edge
#

I got the 1800 6900xt as an open box for like 1620

vital pivot
#

I picked up the 1650 as a spare

livid idol
#

A lot of the stores seem to since they're so expensive, but still better than scalped

vital pivot
#

They were asking 2600 for a 6900xt

#

Open box

novel edge
#
#

I got this one for $1638

heady turtle
#

Ntb

hot folio
#

Not bad

#

I’m pretty sure I over paid a bit for my 6800xt but that’s okay

novel edge
#

I mean I got a evga 3080ti hybrid for less but that's for my friend, but I'm happy with my 6900xt. I'm excited to have my first all AMD build

slate bronze
#

OMG I finally got selected

#

4 months

#

I'm now the proud owner of a 3070ti

echo glade
#

ive been at it for almost 3 months now and still nothing

#

sad i am

ashen minnow
#

you will get there when time comes

#

it will be sooner then you think

karmic crag
#

enjoy

ashen minnow
#

btw through the rumors of rtx 4000s and rx 7000 which do you think is going to come on top in (gaming, video encoder, gpu compute loads, and benchmarks)

ashen minnow
#

Lmao nice

tender mulch
#

There is literally zero info lol. Dont trust leaks.

ashen minnow
#

I know pal

#

But with the fake leaks which would have been better

tender mulch
#

No way to tell

ashen minnow
#

Rip

echo glade
#

when do they send out emails?

ashen minnow
#

Who?

echo glade
#

new egg for the shuffle

ashen minnow
#

Great question I saddly have no idea 💡

#

You can try to dm (think) the guy who got a 3070ti

#

Since he won the shuffle

karmic crag
#

ehh i wouldn't dm

#

try to keep it in the channel

#

just ping em

heady turtle
echo glade
#

if you dont get an email after the first hours is it even worth waiting?

tender mulch
#

Not really

green harness
#

It depends

#

I got my email a few hours in. I suspect they send emails every two hours

heady turtle
#

You could always just enable email notifications on mobile

clever pagoda
#

I'd think that AMD could possibly be coming out on top with the next generation of cards considering they're going to start having two GPUs dies per card

slate bronze
#

Gigabyte AORUS

halcyon plover
#

Thats heavy gpu

clever pagoda
#

Probably gonna be a trillion $

lone pond
#

quick advice here guys and you can do an upvote or down vote on my comment but would anyone trade a Asus TUF 3070 and a 2060 FE for an asrock 6900xt +200 dollars. Does this sound like a good deal?

karmic crag
#

uh

karmic crag
stuck pebble
# echo glade ive been at it for almost 3 months now and still nothing

Same. I entered every shuffle I could and never once got picked, and in the event I ever do get picked I'll most likely be spending more money than I ever intended because of all the stupid bundles - all I want is a GPU. Not a GPU + PSU combo, Not a GPU + Mobo, not a GPU + Monitor. Just the GPU.

lone pond
heady turtle
#

3070 +2060 maybeeeee if it was just those cards for 6900xt but that also has no nvenc, dlss or rtx voice

#

But imo terrible deal, well the 2060 if you don't want it, you'll get great value for it

lone pond
#

Just asking really. What if you put aside rtx, dlss, rtx voice? maybe even 1080p gaming and workstation stuff

heady turtle
#

1080p gaming will depend entirely on your cpu

#

If you don't have a fast enough cpu, at 1080p you probs wont notice between 3070 and 6900xt

#

Literally all eSports titles

#

overwatch does that too

lone pond
#

Just throw a fast cpu in there

#

intel or amd doesnt matter

#

just assume that all is good

heady turtle
#

Not that i know of

heady turtle
lone pond
#

Hmm, sounding more and more like a bad trade no matter where you slice it

heady turtle
#

Oof :/

heady turtle
#

I would possibly consider if they paid you 200 for the 3070 +2060 for the 6900xt but that's 1 GPU instead of 2

lone pond
#

Yeah, that's what it's sounding like. Thanks for the insight

heady turtle
#

But imo the 2 gpus is way superior

#

Nvenc and rtx voice for me

#

My friends love they don't gotta hear my clickity clacks keyboard

#

Well i has razer blackwidow

#

Noo swappie

#

Ive had for like 7 years?

#

Fancy

#

As long as it works

#

Also membrane can be okay

lone pond
#

AH! I had the question backwards its 6900xt for 3070 and 2060 +200

#

200

#

Gotcha, I havent been keeping up much with cards cause I've been busy and I thought about it but never knew what the performance was like

rich wraith
#

I've never owned a watercooled anything, what should I know about this?

hot folio
#

Radiator on top=higher gpu temps, lower everything else
Radiator on Front= lower gpu temps, higher everything else

#

And try to keep the top of the radiator (where the tubes come out of it) above the pump (gpu)

hot folio
rich wraith
#

guessing thats 2021 msrp prices rn

#

reviews are putting it at 1k back in 2020

#

I think my 6700k will be a bottleneck

#

Plus I only have 1080p monitors bonkcatsmile

hot folio
#

How much did you pay?

rich wraith
#

1,476.88

#

after tax and shipping

hot folio
#

Not bad that’s about the same for what I paid for my 6800xt

rich wraith
#

I only have a 600w power supply, but it has x2 8 pin connectors

#

Which my psu has

hot folio
#

You’re going to want to upgrade that PSU

#

Minimum recommended is 650watt but ideally you’d want 750

rich wraith
#

What could happen if I don't upgrade

#

Just won't turn on?

hot folio
#

PSU could fail killing the system

rich wraith
#

Breaking every component?

hot folio
#

But that’s after a bit of time

#

But there most likely would be crashes

#

Yeah if the PSU fails it often will take some components with it usually hard drives and occasionally gpu

#

And you’re most likely going to want to upgrade that 6700k because out of personal experience it will bottleneck it a bit at 1080p ultra settings but games will still be playable

#

At fairly good frames

#

Honestly tho I wouldn’t really worry about bottlenecks that much since no matter what there will be a bottleneck somewhere in the system

#

If you’re on a budget to upgrade the cpu I’d recommend an intel 11400 and a B560 board

#

Of course wait for other people’s opinions before you buy anything because I’m no where close to as knowledgeable with this stuff as other people in the channel @rich wraith

keen nacelle
hot folio
#

If pairing with a B560 go for a non K cpu since you can’t overclock

#

But yeah for like 3-400 he can upgrade the CPU to something really good

keen nacelle
#

^^ I dont know intel mobos well

hot folio
#

11400 and a B560 is his best bet imo

keen nacelle
#

Yeah that'd be pretty well paired with the gpu

#

Google is saying 11400+6800xt will need atleast 600w psu

#

Yeah 11400 is basically the perfect cpu to pair with the 6800xt, showing barely any bottleneck on 1080p high refresh rate ultra together. Bottleneck is a relative term anyways, but its better value than buying a 10th gen i5

hot folio
#

Mine draws around 300-350 watts

subtle cove
#

does anyone know any ways to find a GPU at a reasonable price? I have a ASUS TUF 3080 planned, and there out of stock everywhere (duh)

hot folio
#

Best Buy, microcenter(if you’re lucky)

#

Newegg shuffle if you sell the other things in the bundle

#

EVGA queue but good luck waiting for your name to come up

subtle cove
#

i was originally planning to go to Mass to get to MC, but i realized how lucky i would have to be

#

cause isnt there still incredible lines?

hot folio
#

That and also like AMD cards are being sold for retail scalped prices

#

and Nvidia cards except for Gt710s are sold out 24/7

#

In order to get a chance you’d have to be at the microcenter 3-4 hours before opening with no guarantee there will be the card you want

#

I would definitely drive there before hand to try to ask employees on what days the delivery truck arrives

subtle cove
#

fair

#

but

#

one issue

#

its like a 8 hour drive one way

#

or so

hot folio
#

The one in Cambridge seems to have a 6800xt in stock for 1.3k

#

Oh damn

#

Where are you?

subtle cove
#

central maine

#

aka canada

hot folio
#

Why Massachusetts?

subtle cove
#

closest

hot folio
#

Definitely not

subtle cove
#

rlly?

hot folio
#

There are 4 in New York

keen nacelle
hot folio
#

Wait I’m stupid

subtle cove
#

in what reality? lol

hot folio
#

Lmao I forget Massachusetts is above New York haha

subtle cove
#

lmaoo

hot folio
#

It’s 11 pm where I am, and it’s final exam night, my brain is fried

subtle cove
#

suggestions for a body guard if i go down there and get one? imma be a main target 😳

#

night, gl on your exams

hot folio
#

Give me a few I’ll try to find some places in Canada

subtle cove
#

its only in the US

hot folio
#

I know

#

But there should be some stores like microcenter in canada

subtle cove
#

yeah

#

like one off stores tho

#

but i mean theres nothing wrong with them

hot folio
#

There’s Canada computers which seems to sell 6000 and 30 series gpus

#

retail scalped prices but that’s the only way you’ll get a gpu really

#

Unless you get lucky with a BB drop

subtle cove
#

yeah

hot folio
#

If you’re willing to, there are bots on github to add to cart and check out for Best Buy and stuff like that

subtle cove
#

no

#

i will never resort to that

hot folio
#

Fair

subtle cove
#

i could try to get a voucher for MC

hot folio
#

If you’re willing to spend a bit more you could buy a prebuilt to scavenge

subtle cove
#

yeah

#

but it would be like an extra 2k

hot folio
#

Not really

#

500-1k for like a 3070

#

Vouchers only are really good for maybe like 20-30 minutes after it being issued by the store’s manager or associate

subtle cove
#

and i cant even find it on BB

hot folio
#

BB you have to stalk the drops if it’s online only

#

But if it’s online only you’re competing against Bots

subtle cove
#

no suprise

#

the only GPU I want is the one that isnt her elmao

#

every other one is

hot folio
#

What GPU?

subtle cove
#

TUF 3080, best thermals

#

compared to alll other 3080s

#

MSRP is 700

hot folio
#

Forget about MSRP, it ain’t happening

#

And also if you’re looking at thermals the difference between the tuf, FTW3 ultra and the other higher end 3080s is barely any

subtle cove
#

yeah

#

is FTW3 like 1100?

hot folio
#

And these days you can’t really be picky with what model you get

keen nacelle
#

Honestly gigabyte is under rated, the thermals on it are pretty good for my 3060 ti

keen nacelle
#

I have 2 artic p12 pwm and 2 stock fans in a coolermaster n400 and it sits at under 70 at full load

hot folio
#

The gigabyte AORUS MASTER 3080 is pretty bad

#

Lowest core clock out of all of them

keen nacelle
#

Sorry yeah

subtle cove
#

well yea its aorus

keen nacelle
#

Gigabyte gaming oc pro

#

And eagle

subtle cove
#

there never fail to disapoint

keen nacelle
#

I have the oc pro

hot folio
#

Not all Aorus are bad

#

Mostly only the 3080 Aorus master

subtle cove
#

some mobos arent horrible

keen nacelle
#

I freaking love the look of 10 series and 20 series fe

#

They look amazing compared to 30 series, tho they do still look clean

hot folio
#

I got the Aorus master 6800xt the highest temp this thing gets in 4K benchmarks is 64 Celsius

keen nacelle
subtle cove
#

isnt that equalivant to a underclocked 3090

#

true

hot folio
#

Maybe a 10% difference

subtle cove
#

i have a P500A, so i shoudl eb all good

hot folio
#

In unigine superposition it’s very similar to a non oced 3090

#

I’m running a Lian Li Lancool II Mesh

keen nacelle
#

Honestly I just don't trust amd cards, even if AMD pulls ahead of nvidia with their fidelity fx im gonna be sticking with nvidia

hot folio
#

Why don’t you trust them?

keen nacelle
#

My dad went full amd build a while ago, gpu decided to crap itself

subtle cove
#

f

keen nacelle
#

And a lot of people I know who are into pcs have had atleast one bad experience with them

#

I like my 3600 and I'm probably sticking with ryzen cpus over intel

hot folio
#

Ehh I had 3 2070s fail on me

keen nacelle
#

But not making the switch from nvidia to amd

#

The people I've talked to have had more amd cards doa

hot folio
#

OG 20 series had horrible stability issues

keen nacelle
#

Not really die over the years

hot folio
#

I had 6 20 series cards

keen nacelle
#

I've had a 1030 and 3060 ti :p

hot folio
#

5 out of 6 started artifacting within the first 2 months

#

6th one died on me after the 6th month

keen nacelle
#

Jesus

#

Idk, just personally I've heard more bad things about amd cards over nvidia

subtle cove
keen nacelle
#

So ima be sticking with nvidia

hot folio
#

The only AMD card that started artifacting was my RX 480

#

And that was after having it since release

keen nacelle
hot folio
#

Started artifacting 2 months ago

hot folio
#

Then fixed it with new thermal paste and pads, good as new

hot folio
#

But yeah go with whatever you can get your hands on

subtle cove
#

what are ones that i should aviod then? i understand most are great, but ik some arent

hot folio
#

6700xts

#

3060 non ti

#

Both horrible value

#

And zotacs if you’re planning to OC

subtle cove
#

as in itll be a waste when GPUs are reasonly priced

#

also im sticking to a 3080

keen nacelle
#

Well the evga 3060 for 330$ is well priced

#

All others suck

#

6700xt trades blows with 3060 ti at 3070 price

subtle cove
#

ive had a horrible experience with EVGA

keen nacelle
#

Zotac just in general sucks

#

They've been scalping almost market price on their own website, not to mention just awful customer service

hot folio
#

EVGA and ASUS are easily the 2 best

subtle cove
#

they hide there marketing on there cards despair

keen nacelle
#

Gigabyte is middle of the pack, same with msi

hot folio
#

Gigabyte has terrible stock thermal pads and customer support

hot folio
#

MSI is good just bad business practice

subtle cove
#

i cant flex my EVGA card despair

keen nacelle
#

Only aorus is bad thermals

#

Eagle and oc pro are pretty average

hot folio
#

Eagle has bad thermals

#

OC pro is decent

keen nacelle
#

For a two fan card, that is

subtle cove
#

so i should avoid Eagle?

keen nacelle
#

For a two fan card it's pretty average

subtle cove
#

if so bet i dont liek them

keen nacelle
hot folio
#

Definitely avoid the eagle both 2 and 3 fan

#

Ehh not really

keen nacelle
#

Not really, in most games it trades blows if you're including dlss/rtx

#

With 3060 ti*

hot folio
#

I’ve had the 6700xt the 3070 kills it

#

I had a 6700xt and a currently have a 3070

3070/3080 eagle are just fine afaik

Pny is one of the worst I've heard

lemme check if anyone did testing

keen nacelle

Pny and zotac are the two to avoid imo

cerulean rover

PNY is technically the biggest aib partner iirc

Ok so I’m sticking to PNY for quadros avoiding it for anything else

keen nacelle

From TPU testing,

In our apples-to-apples heatsink testing, we found out that the PNY RTX 3070 XLR8 heatsink is a very good design that can easily outperform coolers from Gigabyte, Palit, Zotac, and even the RTX 3070 Founders Edition.

Bc skytech screwed me over so hard I've spent over 1800$ on a 3060 ti 3600 build and I hate everything to do with my pc now

I wouldn't say they're the worst at all

How does their performance other than cooling perform?

cerulean rover
#

it's a 3070

keen nacelle
hot folio
#

Pretty sure they have lower power limits than others

cerulean rover
#

not much else to expect other than thermals

subtle cove
#

i like corsair but i swear there cooling is horrible (compared to the top dogs)

cerulean rover
#

ye, slightly lower pl but yea

keen nacelle
#

Yeah but don't different 3070s perform slightly different?

cerulean rover
#

everything corsair makes is either overpriced or bad

hot folio
#

1-2% difference

cerulean rover

:P

Eh I've seen some decent corsair ram

4000d gets close to being good

keen nacelle
#

One sec lemme find the link i have it in my cart lmak

hot folio
#

Really? The 4000d airflow is decently priced

cerulean rover
#

but td500 mesh at the normal 102$ mark slaps it imo (Assuming the 95$ 4000d)

hot folio
#

Good point

cerulean rover
#

5000d price is too high

keen nacelle
#

Oh the ram is on my pc

green harness
#

Yeah there's basically no difference in performance unless you're either looking to OC quite a bit or a GPU has such a bad cooler design that it thermal throttles

hot folio
#

Definitely agree with that

#

The LPX ram is fairly decent

keen nacelle
#

But it's 2x8gb 3600mhz for 92$ I believe

subtle cove
#

anyways, @hot folio is there anyting that should be changed/not great value?

keen nacelle
#

Cl18

cerulean rover

for better performance at cheaper

I'm debating tryna trade my 3060 ti for a lhr 3070/3070 ti

cerulean rover

prob not happening

keen nacelle

With the amount of miners ikd

#

Idk

#

Also maybe a 2080 ti

cerulean rover
#

I don't believe there's still many new miners at this point

keen nacelle
#

I've got the psu for it anyways

hot folio

The AIO is really good, my 5900x barely exceeds 60 with mine

i dont think miners want a 3060 ti there prob not great

The 3060Ti is the most desireable mining card rn I thought

Yeah 3060 ti is I think 3rd in the mining hierarchy

subtle cove

Ok, so most desireable 30-series for mining/a very desireable mining card
Thanks for filling me in

keen nacelle

3080 is also great for mining

hot folio
green harness
#

Radeon VII is EoL isn't it?

cerulean rover
#

3080 needs pads

keen nacelle
#

3080, vega 64, 5700xt, and 3060 ti are all sought after by miners a lot

green harness

Yeah, 3080 needs pads and runs hot regardless

cerulean rover

dunno about vega 64

the power draw is

My friends runs at 53 celsius while mining on the side

green harness
keen nacelle

I forget which model he has

cerulean rover
#

uh, are you talking about core or vram

#

g6x gets hot, the die doesn't get that hot

green harness
#

53c memory temp? because that doesn't sound right at all

hot folio
keen nacelle
#

Msi shows 53 idk which it shows

cerulean rover
#

that's core

keen nacelle
#

Afterburner

#

Idk what his memory gets to

cerulean rover
#

very few cards have a dedicated sensor for vram

green harness
#

Yeah, core isn't high it's vram you have to worry about

cerulean rover
#

but you know vram is throttling when your hash rate just drops

hot folio
#

This kinda summarizes it

green harness
#

I though gddr6x had sensors on the memory and that showed in GPU-z etc

subtle cove
#

ouch

cerulean rover
#

lol

hot folio
keen nacelle
#

I mine on the side, get 63mh/s with my 3060 ti at 61 celsius 65% power limit +1500mem -350 core

These prices are insane

lock dat voltage

oh alec what mobo you got?

hot folio
#

VII’s hashrsre is almost 80

keen nacelle
#

Wait really?

hot folio
keen nacelle
#

Wow

cerulean rover
#

that sounds kinda wrong

keen nacelle
#

That's nearly 3080 hashrate at a much lower power draw

cerulean rover
#

pretty sure 3080 hash rate is closer to like 70-some

keen nacelle
#

My friend gets I think 87

#

Phoenix miner

cerulean rover
#

meh, I don't pay enough attention to it

keen nacelle
#

Idk I only know how his and mine mine

green harness
#

3080 hash rate is 90-95

tender mulch
#

3080 should be 100 yeah

keen nacelle
#

He doesn't oc his too much

green harness
#

It might be 70-85 stock, but it should easily get into the 90s

tender mulch
#

Shouldn't mine stock, that's bad

keen nacelle
#

Wait maybe it's 97 not 87

#

I could be wrong

#

One sec lemme check

tender mulch
#

97 sounds right

subtle cove
green harness
subtle cove
#

but it is going with some powerful things

cerulean rover
#

first thing you generally should do is like +1000 vram, lower PL, lock to lower votlage

#

but stock nicest comparison

keen nacelle
#

Idk I can't find it in our dms

tender mulch
#

and underclock core

hot folio
keen nacelle
#

He uses power limit I know that much

tender mulch

at least -200 on the core, if not more

I lowkey was gonna upgrade to a 3700x bc I see them for 220$ used almost daily, bc I thought my 3600 lost the silicon lottery

hot folio
#

Recently had to RMA it because I bios bricked it. But instead of fixing it

keen nacelle
#

Turns out my ram was running at 2666mhz and my cooler was awful

hot folio
#

They sent me a brand new one

cerulean rover
#

just hope that 3700x is good silicon

hot folio
#

I scored with my 3700x

keen nacelle
#

My 3600 is slightly below average in cinebench now with 3600mhx and good Temps

subtle cove
#

so ive always been confused on what the Silicon Lottery is. is it the quality of the silicon within the CPU?

hot folio
#

If I remember correctly it hit 4.6-4.7 gHz stable

Forget the exact number tho

cerulean rover

if you can hit 4ghz at 1.25v stable, congrats, you have a better chip than my 3800x :P

keen nacelle

I'm thinking about ocing my 3600 to test it out

cerulean rover

last time I did ocing it took 1.4v to get 4.3ghz to be cinebench stable

I remember hitting 4.5 at 1.35

Only useful for CAD or other things

knotty jungle
#

Oooof

hot folio
#

That’s why I have mine

knotty jungle
#

My life is a lie

cerulean rover
#

is has been

tender mulch
#

People forget that VRAM isn't just about quantity it's also about speed

knotty jungle
#

I wanted a 2060 and a ryzen 5 3600

cerulean rover
#

and bus size

hot folio
#

10Gb 320bit Will be faster than 16Gb 256 bit

knotty jungle
#

I got my 3600

#

But I’m waiting for gpu

#

Cuz prices way to high

#

Is 3070 a good option with the ryzen 5 3600

cerulean rover
#

It's why 3080ti has faster vram than 3070ti, even though it's both gddr6x at 1188mhz stock, 3080ti has 384bit bus, 3070ti has 256bit bus

hot folio
#

Perfectly fine

cerulean rover
#

well, not exactly faster vram, but more throughput/bandwidth

tender mulch
#

For 1080p, the CPU will be the limiting factor

hot folio
#

Only game I’ve found that uses more than 8Gb is Control where for some reason it was using almost 12-13 Gb

#

On 4K high raytracing

knotty jungle
cerulean rover
#

I could try and see what control does if I force it to render at 4k on my 2070

knotty jungle
#

I’ll use it for 1440p

#

Is that doable

#

With a 3060ti

tender mulch
#

Yes

hot folio
#

Don’t worry about bottlenecks, you’ll always have them somewhere

tender mulch
#

3060TI or 3070

hot folio
#

Could even be the software

keen nacelle
#

3600 with 3060ti is fine for 1080p

knotty jungle
keen nacelle
#

Not ideal but if you alr have a high refresh rate 1080p monitor just stick with it, no reason to spend 250-300 for a slight boost in quality

hot folio
#

It’s a lot easier to find a 3070 over a 3060ti

#

Not saying it’s easy to find tho

keen nacelle
#

True

knotty jungle
#

I have 144hz monitor

hot folio
#

Also do you care about ray tracing and DLSS?

knotty jungle
#

1440p

keen nacelle
#

Oh

knotty jungle
#

Nope only dlss

#

I don’t care about ray tracing

hot folio
#

AMD 6800 and above might be worth taking a look at

keen nacelle
#

Then yeah 3600 is fine for for 3060ti /3070/6800

hot folio
#

It’s a lot easier to find them in micro centers

tender mulch
#

so expensive though

knotty jungle
#

But the thing is I don’t live in the US

hot folio

Where are you?

knotty jungle

I live in Dubai

…good luck with finding anything

You’ll need it

There are many cards here

There's also allocated vs used, but yea

knotty jungle

I should have just gotten an i7 with integrated graphics so I could wait it out till prices come down

cerulean rover

I'm guessing afterburner+rtss should be pretty accurate

hot folio
#

RTSS?

cerulean rover
#

rivatuner statistics server or whatever

knotty jungle
#

Ray tracing super sampling

hot folio
#

Ahh is that was that overlay is?

#

DLSS and ray tracing had a baby?

knotty jungle
#

Yes

cerulean rover
#

Afterburner install should've automatically installed rtss with it

#

this boi

hot folio
#

Oh I think I unchecked that because I didn’t know what it was

cerulean rover
#

But afterburner&RTSS together gets you the nice osd

#

on screen display

knotty jungle
#

You have to click on install both in the installer

hot folio
#

True but Radeon software does the same if you Alt+R

#

So it ain’t a big deal

cerulean rover
#

playing this game at 15fps is fun

hot folio
#

And I’m not a huge fan of the overlay

cerulean rover
hot folio
#

Just over lays in general

cerulean rover
#

and you can edit the overlay however you want

knotty jungle
hot folio
#

Ooooh

knotty jungle
#

The struggles

cerulean rover
#

I have per core cpu usage graphs and framtime graphs atm

hot folio
#

My 6800xt is averaging about 50-60fps on 4K high ray tracing so I’m happy with it

cerulean rover
#

but there's a fair amount of things you can do

hot folio
#

I’ll definitely install it tomorrow to mess around with

#

For pure gaming the 6800xt is so nice

keen nacelle

I gave it to my dad for work (won it in a giveaway for free) so I'd have to move it

hot folio

Yeah mine is only 75hz but I’m fine with it

#

Don’t really need 144hz

keen nacelle

Idk if I'm weird, I only notice a different between 40hz and 60hz

Anything else doesn't seem like much of a difference to me, noticeably anyways

hot folio
#

You mean FPS?

keen nacelle
#

Nah hz

#

Refresh rate

tender mulch
#

144/165 is soooo smoooooth

hot folio

Never used a 144hz soooo

keen nacelle

I've got 75hz 1440p and 165hz 1080p and I don't notice too much of a difference

#

But I'm told I'm weird

hot folio
#

Only time I’ll upgrade is once GPUs can run at 4K 165 fps

keen nacelle
#

I wonder if anyone's bought a dual 3090 rig for gaming

#

If they did they're either crazy, rich, stupid, or all of the above

hot folio
#

I love the microcenter warranty, basically even if there’s nothing wrong with my gpu and a new gpu comes out within the next 2 years I can trade it in for store credit

keen nacelle
#

That's sick

#

Didn't know microcenter did that

hot folio
#

So I’d have 1400 store credit for it

#

You need to buy the extra warranty tho

#

It’s like 150-200 usd I think

keen nacelle
#

I'm over here with my 3060 ti without a warranty because it came in a pre build and idt gigabyte let's me register a pre build gpu under them

vital oriole

dual 3090 rig for gaming only is stupid

Ehh even if you did register gigabyte would just send it back to you without fixing it

they do offer dual 3090, and quad rtx 5000, but not quad rtx 5000

Oh back to the earlier conversation, my friend is currently getting 95mh/s with his ocd 3080

cerulean rover
#

Overall, what we found was that while Quad RTX 3090s was able to run on a single 1600W power supply, it is cutting is extremely close. Remember that this is power draw from the wall, and going by the rated 92% efficiency of the EVGA unit we are using, our peak power draw of 1,717 watts should only translate to 1,580 watts of power internally. That leaves a whole 20 watts to spare!

hey remember me the guy who told you about the 48 fps thing on minecraft rtx and lower fps on other games

well I found the fix so if anybody else has the same issue

i found a reddit

here it is

it can not only fix mc rtx but possibly other games

im getting lowkey garbage fps on optifine + shaders

heady turtle
pine rapids

i got a 3070 too and i get 80ish with 8 chunk render distance

heady turtle
#

But it was 45ish with my r9 380 too

pine rapids
#

the weird pat is that if i bump up my render distance to like 20, i still get the same fps

heady turtle
#

Yeah same, it's the pack being weird or being cpu bound is what i found out

#

Well what i assume

#

Cuz no other options

pine rapids
#

yea idk

#

i havent tried other packs yet tho

heady turtle
#

Well there was increase in all other games by significant amount so has to be cpu bound packs or something

magic wing

it reduces input lag

#

nothing else

#

also I absolutely wouldnt do it

magic wing
#

Read the title guys

pine rapids

im not using that method

i was jus commenting about how my fps is garb

magic wing
#

Try slapping down anti aliasing in the shader pack options

heady turtle
#

I think i didn't have anti aliasing enabled ¯_(ツ)_/¯ weird pack/cpu bound somehow or something most likely

pine rapids
#

its off lol

magic wing
#

Java itself is CPU bound

#

also single core workload

heady turtle

Like 600+fps without shaders

magic wing
#

I go from 600+ to 60 lol

heady turtle
magic wing
#

Did you ddu between gpus?

pine rapids
#

its weird bc i see like 0 fps change between 8 and 20 chunk render distance

heady turtle

#

I did see a difference going from java 8 to java 15 btw

#

incase yall wanna do that

#

I can help you switch

pine rapids
#

installing msi afterburner to see if its reading fps wrong

heady turtle

So that should cover

just installing it does nothing

At home i currently have a GTX 1050 Ti, 5700 XT, RTX 3080 And then with me is an RTX 2070 Super.

When i get back I'm going to have 2 PC's (one workstation and one gaming) and then put a 3rd PC in the living room for VR.

#

I could do this now. But i like fast things 🤣

I blame Newegg for the combos.

#

@echo glade same here had an email at 3 from them advertising stuff and was more let down then the usual “you weren’t selected emails” lol

clever pagoda
#

I mean most companies are scalping except for maybe best buy

echo glade
#

maybe new egg should shuffles per state

#

idk might be stupid

clever pagoda
#

Newegg should stop the combos for LHC GPUs bc miners aren't as likely to try for them imo

That is a pretty penny, at least you got a nice system tho
