5700xt has a decent value resell wise. So it can knock 600$ at least off, but most are about that much above msrp

[hollow heath]

Hey

[vital oriole]

i like how amd is abusing the situation

[lone pond]

nah

its the AIBs

[vital oriole]

ah

[lone pond]

alot of the models are the MSRP, most that actually get restocked are the high priced ones

Same card, same manufacturer, different cooler/pcb

[vital oriole]

sad

[normal hawk]

Amd direct has them at MSRP too. But they get botted

[pallid coyote]

BestBuy with those scalper prices

[spare relic]

Huh

When did they open as a marketplace lol

[green harness]

If you're looking at the prices for those amd aib cards those are the prices those things are selling for anywhere. It's just the MSRP set by the AIBs unfortunately

[heady turtle]

You may have been thinking of walmart

Ahh i schee

[green harness]

Referring to the amd aib card prices? That's literally just the MSRP set by the aibs

Exactly. They aren't scalping them. If people want to complain they should complain about the AIBs. MC, Newegg, and anywhere else is selling those cards for at least that much unfortunately

[dreamy dragon]

ZakiAdam#7556 has been warned

[fossil talon]

AMD AIBS are stupidly priced

[green harness]

For sure. If they were priced close to AMD MSRP I'd have considered a 6800 or 6800xt

0/124 Newegg shuffle 😐

[vital pivot]

I skipped today’s shuffle

No EVGA products.

[deft wigeon]

Will a metal back plate make my gpu hotter?

[cerulean rover]

No

[vital pivot]

Putting thermal pads on the back of your video card between the back plate will reduce temps though.

[vital pivot]

The shuffle?

@sterile parcel poke

No I didn’t see any

? You don’t want to spend 1k on a PS5 with 5 crap games

Honestly.

I bought 2. One for me and one for my buddy.

Daughter pissed me off so I sold it

Now her birthday is at the end of the month. Kinda regret selling it cuz I know she wants one

[thin peak]

#general-chat

[vital pivot]

She has a bad ass gaming PCs. She doesn’t need a inferior pa5 anyway.

[thin peak]

the chat says graphics cards

[vital pivot]

Well it you have something to say about graphic cards. Speak up @thin peak

[thin peak]

ehh i was gonna say something but you guys are a waste of time

[vital pivot]

If you want to know how I managed to buy 7 new video cards at msrp well. It’s.

Called LUCK

Oops 8

I forgot the 1650 super

😆

Finished daughters build.

Yeah

So. I need to make my hardware monitoring screen still. And install the tempered glass

The glass comes with it

It’s for the 7”

Err

Let me clarify

The case came with everything. Even decent instructions.

The screen next to the mobo is for a raspberry pi

I used it to install windows

It’s also a touchscreen. 🙂

[hollow heath]

Sooo

Is a 2080 Ti for 800 bad?

It's near 3070 performance

[cerulean rover]

it's ok-ish

[vital pivot]

800 isn’t bad

I paid 1499 for my 2080ti in 2019

That was the going rate then

[hollow heath]

It's a Ventus GP

[vital pivot]

Oh

[hollow heath]

It isn't the best card but it isn't necessarily terrible

[vital pivot]

[junior jolt]

do packages get stolen often? when i ordered a new gpu from newegg, it was apparently delievered

it hasn't shown up and i was wondering if i made a claim, what would be my chances at getting a replacement

[spare relic]

Depends on the area, among other factors I suppose

It's possible it's held at the post office

I would suggest checking there

[lone pond]

$500 profit

ez

[keen nacelle]

What?

First off, how the **** did you sell a 3060 for 500$ more than you bought it for

Second

[lone pond]

sells for 1k

bought for 500

[keen nacelle]

Why you bragging about it in a discord full of gamers who despise scalpers

[lone pond]

because

[keen nacelle]

They ain't selling for 1k anymore idk who tf bought that

Theyre going for a max of 750, and that's on the high estimate

[spare relic]

Hey Mando I'll buy it

[lone pond]

1000 was recent

$780-800

minimum

[spare relic]

I have 2 ipad chargers you want it or no

[lone pond]

last 5 listing $765+ minimum

[lone pond]

no

[spare relic]

[keen nacelle]

800 and 720 are the 2 recent sold lol

Listings don't matter at all lmfao

[keen nacelle]

Sold listinfs are what do

[lone pond]

these are sold listings

[keen nacelle]

Yep

As far as I can tell

[lone pond]

minimum of $765

[keen nacelle]

That's not 1000

[lone pond]

i've seen them sell for 1k, either way, still 300-400 prof

brb

[keen nacelle]

Still don't know why you're bragging about it in a discord full of people who hate scalpers

Hell half the people here spent months trying to get a gpu because of scalpers

[spare relic]

I'll buy a 3060 when it's 250

[keen nacelle]

@spare relic it said that it was delivered and i called and they said nothing, the ups people said it wasn't there with them

Document everything that could be helpful in opening a stolen claim

[heady turtle]

Deal

[crisp ocean]

Just sold my 3070 for 900

Ez profit

[vital pivot]

Hah. I sold that gigabyte 3070 for $900 to a miner.

My first 3070 I bought it last November with the Giga Bomb PSU.

When I sold it, I had just won a shuffle for a msi 3070 so it was a win win.

That was like 6 months ago

I only sold it to him for that much cuz he was mining like crazy and offered that. So who is to say no to instant profit without the eBay fee amd taxes

Anyway metro if I won a new card today I would sell it for my cost and the shipping. And also provide the receipt so you can register it

[hollow heath]

Oh really?

A 3070?

[heady turtle]

Btw buying on this server is against rules

[hollow heath]

Huh who said that lmao

Heh. @vernal osprey with with smack down

[dreamy dragon]

Hasn't been for years, for gaming anyway

[hollow heath]

Gaming

[brisk flame]

nope

[hollow heath]

But I guess that answers my question lmao

[brisk flame]

yup

[vital pivot]

Only people who run SLI are benchmarkers.

[spare relic]

Doesn't rendering software support multi gpu

And other such

[cerulean rover]

blender is op

slap gpus in and it'll just work

[spare relic]

[brisk flame]

most productivity software doesnt need SLI

only applications where render times need to be in miliseconds typically use SLI

eg games

[keen nacelle]

lmao im getting told a 3600 isnt good enough for a 3060 ti

and to get a 5600x instead

kids knowing nothing about pcs is funny

[spare relic]

Lol

3600 the 2019 budget king

Would probably be fine with 3090 xd

[vital pivot]

@keen nacelle kick me in the ballz. That way he doesn’t produce gamers. Only console peasants.

[keen nacelle]

what?

it was a kid on hypixel tryna lag peopels games with a plot full of beacons in build battle

[spare relic]

Lmao

The peak of gaming

[keen nacelle]

yeah lol

said i had a 600$ pre built and bought it with daddys money

which, in fact, both are false

[spare relic]

Xd

Insecure about something I guess

Probably has an a8-6410 pc

Or an e-450

[keen nacelle]

lol

[hollow heath]

Is mining with a 1080 Ti a good idea?

[spare relic]

you could look up the typical hash rate

the answer is probably not

and calculate if it's even worth it based on your local electricity price

[heady stratus]

That's tricky considering the unknowns of buying used cards

[spare relic]

if they already have

but yea I agree

[hollow heath]

I already got a 1080 Ti

[lone pond]

late 2019 maybe

really early 2019 it wasn't

2700x was still getting crazy deals

i got mine for $190 in december 2018

[keen nacelle]

Yeah nowadays 10400 is much smarter

10400, 10400f, 10600k

[fossil talon]

Is there a 10400k lol?

[earnest merlin]

could I pair a i5 10400f with a rx580 and stream

[livid idol]

No

Probably meant f

[keen nacelle]

I did lol mb

[livid idol]

Intel SKUs are confusing lol

[fossil talon]

All companies are lol

Intel decided to make more CPUs and more names

[livid idol]

It's possible but don't expect to be running anything over 1080p. Probably medium settings for newer, more demanding games too.

[earnest merlin]

apex and splitgate?

[livid idol]

True, AMD now has a 5700g, a 5700XT, a 5600X, and a 5600XT

[fossil talon]

XT shouldn't exist imo

[livid idol]

Apex is easy to run, not familiar with splitgate

[livid idol]

Just wait until next gen CPUs come out, I hope they adjust the naming to avoid confusion with GPUs this time

[fossil talon]

Hopefully

[earnest merlin]

ok thanks

also anyone know best buy restock dates

[fossil talon]

They usually post upcoming in store restock dates on Best buy's blog

[deft wigeon]

Best Buy doesn’t restock😂

[vital pivot]

Running some benchmarks. So far I beat all the “standards”

[fossil talon]

Ok rephrase: Instore drops

[keen nacelle]

I'd go wirh a cheaper cpu and a better gpu

9400f and 2070 if you could find it would work better together

Nvidia gpus are much better for streaming

Hell even a 10100 and 2070

[spare relic]

There will always be others. I only have AIO.

I’m not really a overclocker.

Just wanting to get a feel of what my pc can do.

I still have hue sync running along with GeForce experience

Doh

As you can tell. I have all the fans cranked.

That run was 19430

@hollow heath the best score is 21939

Omfg.

OMFG

20071

[keen nacelle]

Pog

Bruh you got 9000 over my overclocked 3060 ti

And 6800 over my stock 3600

[vital pivot]

https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/64695127

[hollow heath]

Damnnn

[keen nacelle]

Damn

So is 20071 overclocked?

[vital pivot]

yes

[keen nacelle]

Sick

When I oced I got 1000 under the average 3070

Non oced 3070

I think a 2k jump is about average

That's rhe same jump I got

So unless you go crazy hard core overclocker with liquid nitrogen or whatever they use I think that's pretty good

[keen nacelle]

What oc settings did you use?

[dreamy dragon]

Daarken#5297 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

CPU running at 5.4 Ghz

I have no clue where everything is on this, I'm not super into ocing so I don't recognize that software, give me a min

[vital pivot]

its evga's precision X

[keen nacelle]

Is power limit at max? Like with msi you can put it at 104?

[vital pivot]

no.

[keen nacelle]

That'll increase score as well

[vital pivot]

all i did was push the CPU and Memory

[keen nacelle]

How much?

I was able to do 150 on core and 1100 on mem

[vital pivot]

memory clock is at 1000 and gpu 120

[keen nacelle]

Go up by increments of 25 on core

And run it again each time

Once it fails then thays the limit, go back to the last overclock it was before it failed

[vital pivot]

you have to remember.. this gpu is technically over clocked already from the factory.

[keen nacelle]

With mem go up by 50 each time, same thing

So is mine

Gaming oc pro, I think +100 on mem automatically? Or maybe on core? Not too sure

[vital pivot]

yeah but the kingpin is OC more then standard

[keen nacelle]

True

Still, you just go up by small increments until it gets an error on time spy

[vital pivot]

Running it again

This time +50 on mem

[hollow heath]

Guys

[keen nacelle]

Kk

[hollow heath]

I need help

[keen nacelle]

What's up?

[hollow heath]

My PC gets semi frozen and this happens

[vital pivot]

Clean you phones camera lens

What apps are running

[keen nacelle]

How do you use negative gpu lmao

[hollow heath]

No idea

[keen nacelle]

Check if drivers and bios are updated

Also check msi afterburner about gpu usage

Maleware and virus scan too

[hollow heath]

Nzxt cam Dragon Center Discord Chrome EVGA LED sync

I might do a virus scan

[earnest merlin]

those are all more expensive than the 10400f

[vital pivot]

Those kingpin temps are looking nice though

[keen nacelle]

Not used

where can i look facebook marketplace and offer up have nothing i have already looked

[earnest merlin]

ok

[keen nacelle]

Theyre the main things I can think of off the top of my head

[hollow heath]

[vital pivot]

https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/64695492

Holy frick

11 detections 24 seconds in

[keen nacelle]

Viruses?

[hollow heath]

Trojan Agent

[keen nacelle]

Yeah im guessing some sort of background crypto miner, and task manager is weird when it comes to showing gpu usage

I'll be playing warzone at max settings and it'll say I'm using 10%

[hollow heath]

In 1 minute 45 seconds it found 17 threats and 1 PUP

[keen nacelle]

How'd you manage that one

[hollow heath]

Did you say Crypto miner?

[keen nacelle]

Yeah its a virus thing sometimes

[hollow heath]

I had nice hash

[keen nacelle]

With you pc freezing and task manager showing weird gpu usage

[hollow heath]

Idk if that was the issue

[keen nacelle]

Nicehash is legit

I used it for a while

Maybe the dag files or whatever leaked (I've heard of it happening once or twicd) but I doubt it

[hollow heath]

Idk

Either way hope it was just that causing some weird things with my system

If not I'll try a windows clean install

[keen nacelle]

Make sure you check if drivers are updated

Speaking of

I should prolly do that lol it's been like 3 months

[hollow heath]

Do you guys have a good driver updater program that's free?

[keen nacelle]

My guy you have a nvidia card, just download GeForce experience

[hollow heath]

Lol I meant for all type of drivers

[keen nacelle]

I doubt any other drivers would cause this issue, other than maybe updating bios but I dont think that'd affect gpu that badly

[hollow heath]

Oh ok

Driver is up to date

[keen nacelle]

Yeah then just get rid of all the viruses and malware

That should fix it

[hollow heath]

Yeah

[keen nacelle]

If it doesn't I'm not too sure on what it could be

[hollow heath]

I got rid of the malware

[keen nacelle]

Still can't hurt to get rid of them lol

[hollow heath]

Yeah if not then try to install Windows again

[keen nacelle]

Yep

[earnest merlin]

what about a 2700x for 165$

[keen nacelle]

Overpriced

[vital oriole]

eeehhhh

[keen nacelle]

3600s go for 150 daily on hws

[vital oriole]

you can go intel instead

[keen nacelle]

Better for gaming

[vital oriole]

or 3600 like that

[keen nacelle]

Foxy read the convo up there

[vital oriole]

i assume they're on am4?

if so then i guess

[keen nacelle]

Idk

They asked about a 10400 and a 580

[earnest merlin]

it was on r/hardware swap

[keen nacelle]

I said cheaper cpu and better gpu

[keen nacelle]

Yeah

I'd def go for a 3600 over a 2700x though

They seem to go for less and have better gaming performance

[earnest merlin]

i cant find any 3600 but i'll keep looking

[keen nacelle]

Just check every couple hours sorting by new

I check it every hour or so to see if there's anything I'm interested in

If i see anything in the next couple days I'll let you know

Gonna start a dm so I can find you easily

[earnest merlin]

ok thanks

[hollow heath]

No way it happened again

[keen nacelle]

did you reinstall windows?

if its still happening after that it has to be a gpu issue

[hollow heath]

I’m gonna reinstall it probably tomorrow

[vital pivot]

Try the windows reset

You are running nzxt cam? @hollow heath

[raw agate]

What 3060 should I get

I'm getting a mid tower

[tardy chasm]

should i get a 3060 with 12 gb for 579.99

[raw agate]

I wanted asus but I don't wanna spend $600+ for a decent one

[keen nacelle]

if you REALLY need a gpu rn then i guess its below ebay prices, but if you can wait till the shortage is over or go for best buy drops and such youd be able to get a 3060 ti or 3070

[tardy chasm]

alright

[hollow heath]

Yes

[vital pivot]

Its kinda suspect.

I would uninstall and see what happens.

[hollow heath]

You think so?

[main mist]

So I tried changing my nividia settings or whatever it is and it doesn’t show it has the settings or the gpu isn’t installed

then I tried some ways and now my pc is frozen

like the screen is black but it’s on

[vital pivot]

Asian. Try to boot into safe mode and remove the gpu from device manager

I’m out. Good luck

[hollow heath]

Bet

650 for a 6700 XT?

Is that good

[deft wigeon]

Which slot should I put my gpu in?

[flat bridge]

the very top one

the one with the silver

shield thingy

[deft wigeon]

Okkkkk

[keen nacelle]

Reference model or an aib?

Either way, that's about the going rate for the reference model rn, for the performance and the market were in id say its a pretty good price

It's a gigabyte 2070

There is slight gpu sag but there's nothing I can do about it right now

[toxic sinew]

That's normal

That's normal until the gpu hits 50c , modern ones don't spin until then

Some GPUs only spin up when they need to

If it doesn't spin at higher temps then you can worry

thermonuclear reactor?

bro ever since I talked to you in overclock like 12 hours ago, I've been going nuts trying to figure out why my Time Spy score dropped 2k

[hot folio]

Maybe CPU?

[shy sluice]

CPU score is like 60 points different and fluctuates

but then there's 2k difference in graphics

yet I've never scored higher on Port Royal

The only thing I can think of, is I added a core offset to the CPU because it allows PBO to hit higher clocks

but that seems like it would help not hurt?

[heady turtle]

Yeah , for example i can oc my 3070 to +1100 mem but actually performs better with +1050 or +1000

[shy sluice]

oh okay I'm sorry I was thinking you were referring to CPU

okay I'll try toning it down from 1150/175 to 1000/100 and jump 25 on each until I hit a sweet spot then maybe

[heady turtle]

Well possibly, I'm sure that it's true with cpus as well

[vital pivot]

And @shy sluice one thing to consider.

[shy sluice]

Well CPU is just gonna have to stay where it's at lol

I went through waaay too much crap to undo that

yes

[vital pivot]

I have avoided overclocking for 20 years

[shy sluice]

?

That's understandable but I just enjoy feeling like I actually made things better

that's of course assuming I made things better

your 10900K is a great example tho. Sure, I can have all cores at 5100mhz, but if I do then I won't hit 5300mhz on a single core like yours does

Good for Time Spy but bad for Cinebench

[vital pivot]

So actually doing anything OC is newish

What’s weird. Is I thought I was locked at 5.4

Oh 11900k

My wife has a 10900k

Intact.

I sent that to her last night

My bad. The wire has a i9-9900 the daughter has the 10900F.

[shy sluice]

I have two different computers

one has 5900x and the other 10900K

with RTX3070 and RTX3060 respectively

[vital pivot]

I have 4 systems.

[shy sluice]

That's a lot to keep up with

[vital pivot]

Wife has i9-990k w/3070

Daughter 10900f with 2080ti

Bro has a 10850k with 3060

what do you do for cooling?

that 10900K is a heat monster

well mine is at least

maybe without oc it's not so bad

got a quick question. I have ddr4 in my computer. The video card I want to get has ddr6 on board. are these compatible?

[vital oriole]

you mean gddr6?

[rancid zealot]

yes, sry

[vital oriole]

But yeah, vram doesn't need system to support it

The vram is used by gpu itself

[rancid zealot]

sweet. so i wont have to upgrade my PC Ram?

[vital oriole]

yeah

[rancid zealot]

Foxy your DIAMONDS!!!! thx a bunch

[heady turtle]

I wish ddr6 was out x)

[bronze tundra]

@heady turtle 🙏

[wise night]

Wait until ddr5 comes out first

Then ddr6

[bronze tundra]

new gen of ram: handled on the rgb fans

[heady turtle]

Yw ?

[bronze tundra]

no need for dedicated ram slots

[bronze tundra]

was joke

[heady turtle]

Ahh lol

[heady turtle]

Yes ik i was joking lol

[bronze tundra]

isnt ddr5 spec'd up to like 13k

mhz

[heady turtle]

We will see

It's starting at like 4000 or 4400 jdec or something tho

[bronze tundra]

yeesh

[normal hawk]

You can get gddr6 on a PC kit with the 4700s from AMD. But the Apu is disabled so it sucks Ngl.

Rejected PS5 soc's

Clocked slightly higher, Mobo sadly limits it to 1060 6gb or 590 as the best you can use on it.

[heady turtle]

Meant actual ddr6 like dram

[heady turtle]

That's decent tho

[normal hawk]

That's what it functions as

[heady turtle]

Yes ik but didn't mean gddr

Like actual ddr6 like 10000mhz cl30 or something lol

[normal hawk]

I mean for 1080p yeah. Not in the current market though. Would put a 1050 ti or 580 on it though since I have one

[bronze tundra]

thats quite high latency

[heady turtle]

Nah

Not for 10,000mhz

[bronze tundra]

when would there be a noticeable impact

[heady turtle]

That would be super low

[normal hawk]

Corsair said ddr5 gets real hot

[bronze tundra]

from that speed compared to latency?

[heady turtle]

Aye it do

[bronze tundra]

exactly why companies like tsmc have experimented or started to expierment with on chip watercooling

[normal hawk]

Gonna have to use those ram coolers they've been making. Corsairs really been ahead of their time

[heady turtle]

That's just cas latency, not latency overall, otherwise why would we run anything other than cl1

[bronze tundra]

ah

ig

[bronze tundra]

and speaking of watercooling, i get the rest of my fittings today!

damn

[heady turtle]

Pog

[bronze tundra]

why u leaking pics of my rad

[heady turtle]

Lol

[normal hawk]

That's one of the fans Corsair makes for ram. There will finally be a market for it

[bronze tundra]

corsair hydrox better not let me down again

🙏

[bronze tundra]

there already kinda was in commercial and industrial applications

[normal hawk]

Would they be buying RGB ram fans?

[bronze tundra]

well no

i was just mentioning the concept

[heady turtle]

Mmmmmm idk think they'll manage better implementation

[normal hawk]

Why not milk us enthusiasts for more money tho. Ram with no heatsink, then buy a ramfan. That you have to apply thermal paste to just like a CPU

[heady turtle]

Probs say bye to low profile ram tho lmao

[heady turtle]

Lmao

I wonder if oems will have to ship ram heatsinks now :o

[normal hawk]

I don't expect OEMs to move to DDR5 that quickly.

Alder lake will support both ddr4 and ddr5.

[bronze tundra]

is alder lake 12th gen?

[normal hawk]

Like how they used to give 2133 or 2400 MHz ddr4? They'll move the default to 3000mhz ddr4 since it's cheap

[heady turtle]

Only on the bargain bin boards, usually they use b boards tbf, i expect it to be on select h610 boards

True

I mean jdec ddr5 will be available

4000cl40 or something

[normal hawk]

It's gonna be expensive 🤷‍♂️

[heady turtle]

But it's really cl20 because 1 stick is dual channel

[bronze tundra]

maybe at first

it will drop down in like 6-1 year

which is well, given

but the market right now still kinda f'd with everything going on

[heady turtle]

Nah market just screwed gpu wise

And 11400 wise(us only)

[bronze tundra]

why is there issues with the 11400

[normal hawk]

Isn't there a HDD shortage due to Chia farming or is that over?

[bronze tundra]

i dont think thats still an issue

[normal hawk]

A 4tb HDD is enough for me so it's not like it matters anyways.

[shy sluice]

I missed the part in Dante's Inferno where the damned have to run Time Spy benchmarks for eternity. Still dunno where my 2000 points went

[heady turtle]

Dunno lol just temporary being scalped lol

[heady turtle]

Never really happened

Rip

[livid idol]

After all the reports of drives being trashed very quickly they realized the need special high endurance, enterprise grade drives so the only major shortage is still related to the general silicon shortage

[vital pivot]

I stole them.

🙂

How else could I hit 20221

[blissful jolt]

hello, plase tell me and help...

this link vga its LHR version? yes or no...

https://www.newegg.com/msi-geforce-rtx-3070-ti-ventus-3x-8g-oc/p/N82E16814137662?Description=rtx 3070&cm_re=rtx_3070-_-14-137-662-_-Product&quicklink=true

[heady turtle]

Yikes don't purchase that, one, that's higher than scalper price, 2 ventus is a bleh cooler, and ships from china not Newegg themselves

[blissful jolt]

oky and thank you bro

[heady turtle]

Np

[blissful jolt]

i need no LHR version rtx3070 for newegg shpping (usa)

[heady turtle]

@blissful jolt give this a read

Also all 3070 tis and 3080 tis are lhr only btw

[blissful jolt]

yes i know but need old model, maby rev1.0

:(((

[heady turtle]

It will say LHR if its lhr bar the 3070 ti and 80 ti

[dreamy dragon]

Zev9iX#6973 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[vital pivot]

Why so Desperate for a non lhr card @blissful jolt

Mining?

[livid idol]

Why else?
Personally I think it's stupid they even started doing the LHR. With how much GPUs cost it's nice to be able to recoup some costs mining on the side.

[vital pivot]

I agree

[heady turtle]

Indeed pretty stupid but i guess it is what it is

[blissful jolt]

@vital pivot yes mining

[hollow heath]

If I were to trade my 1080 Ti for a RX 6800 XT sapphire how much would I have to put

[livid idol]

1080 ti is about the performance of a 3060 ti, so in a perfect world we'd be looking at about $200 difference. You might be able to sell the 1080 ti for more than $400, though. On the flip side, you might have to pay more than the $650 for the Sapphire 6800XT model.

[quartz pewter]

does anybody know what the latest stable nvidia drivers? I had downloaded the ones they launched today but they are complete ass

[livid idol]

They don't release beta drivers unless you go looking for them typically, so the latest release is stable.

It might not be WHQL logo'd but it's technically a stable version

[quartz pewter]

I downloaded todays version that launched and it wont let me go into fullscreen mode on my games

[livid idol]

Do DDU in safe mode to clean the drivers, and reinstall. Today's version actually is a recommended WHQL version.

[quartz pewter]

thats what i just did. but Im here asking for stable drivers :0

[stray gyro]

I downloaded mine and immediately had stability issues

So i had to restart

[quartz pewter]

I did too

[livid idol]

Well here's the previous WHQL version https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/177772/en-us

[quartz pewter]

Im pretty new to nvidia, since I got my 3090 haha. The nvidia control panel is so much different than AMD's

[livid idol]

It is very different indeed. I find the nvidia control panel looks much more... dated. Like it hasn't changed in 20 years dated.

[crisp ocean]

LHR doesn’t lower profitability by too much

That’s the thing

[livid idol]

That and you can still mine Ravencoin at full speed, which is nearly as profitable as Ethereum.

[vital pivot]

So let’s resolve your issue @quartz pewter

You did run DDU in safe mode, installed the new nVidia drivers and now have issues with full screen games?

[quartz pewter]

Well I did run ddu in safe mode cleared my other drivers and booted back up. Downloaded some previous whql drivers and now my issue is fixed. I think my drivers were corrupted but now it’s fixed. Thanks for trying to help tho!

[vital pivot]

Enjoy

[hollow heath]

How much is a Sapphire RX 6800 XT

[livid idol]

Newegg has it at $650

Or $1400 from scalpers

[hollow heath]

Is 1200 a bad price

[heady turtle]

imo yes

950 max imo

[hollow heath]

I have 760 what you think I can get

[heady turtle]

depends where you buying

[hollow heath]

What's the easiest website to get a card?

[heady turtle]

none of them XD

[livid idol]

If you're near a microcenter that's your best bet for good prices, best buy is doing in store too lately. Reddit r/hardwareswap is decent.

[hollow heath]

I've been trying them

But no MC near me sadly

[toxic sinew]

Well there's no other choice really

Newegg Shuffle but that's only a chance

[hollow heath]

Sad boi hours

[heady turtle]

AMD.com to get reference (best case)

[livid idol]

Sadly the same boat many are in

[heady turtle]

id also settle for a 3080 if i where you btw

[hollow heath]

AMD direct is easy?

If I had the chance to get a 3080 I would tbh

[livid idol]

As easy as anything else

[heady turtle]

@hollow heath all your options (or at least most bar r/hardwareswap etc)

[hollow heath]

Yeah I figured

[shy sluice]

Can I have them back when you're done?

[vital pivot]

Sure. Take em

🙂

[shy sluice]

TechwithExcellence

that's how I got my 3070

!!!

They'll send you weekly updates on stock

they'll let you switch if more stock of one becomes available

Their customer service replies within 24 hours for sure

They're nice people from Ohio who are super Christian

[green harness]

That's a reference board. Pretty sure they rarely sell those and most reference board go out through amd.com

Non-reference models go for much more than $650 no matter where you buy them

Microcenter will have non-reference amd cards at the same jacked up AIB prices unfortunately

[shy sluice]

Techwithexcellence's page says they have Sapphire Nitro+Radeon RX6800 in stock

I dunno if $1349 is a good price for that

oh wat

oh wait

it also says they have PNY RTX 3070 TIs in stock for $1099

MSI Ventus 3070Ti should be in stock in two 233ks for $1199

oh and RX6700 in stock $899

no idea if these are good prices

just sayin

[green harness]

It's not really, but I think that's similar to what they're going for elsewhere. Let me check microcenter

[idle slate]

ty wegg for the 3090 strix drop just now 🙂

got my third

[shy sluice]

I have no incentive to do this other than they were nice to me and got me a card when I couldn't get anything

So don't think I'm out here advertising cuz I get commission or some nonsense lol

[livid idol]

$500-600 is about what a 6700XT is supposed to be

[green harness]

Some places do sell a 6800 for like $1,000 from the looks of it, but that's like one of the AIB models and many are 1200+ so that price doesn't look like it is out of line with aib prices

[shy sluice]

well I guess these are mom & pop prices

cuz it's just him and his son

https://www.techwithexcellencellc.com/

[green harness]

Only reference boards go for that, if you think aib boards go for anything like that you haven't been paying attention

[shy sluice]

could be total nonsense to you I dunno

Trying to help tho

[livid idol]

Smaller stores like that are relying on larger profit margins, so they're technically scalping but only to keep the business running

[green harness]

The sky-high aib prices are part of why amd cards are not particularly compelling right now. The AIB cards are so overpriced

[shy sluice]

well there's a lot of trade-offs you wouldn't normally make in this type of market I guess

[livid idol]

That's why I'm not even entertaining the idea of AIB cards

[green harness]

AIB prices at MC: https://www.microcenter.com/search/search_results.aspx?N=&cat=&ntt=Rx+6800

[shy sluice]

I mean realistically, small mom & pop shops probably couldn't even survive if stocks were normal

[green harness]

They're gonna have a rough time getting a reference board, but hopefully it works out

A 3070 is probably a better bet

Techwithexcellence prices look slightly high but no more than like +$100 on any SKU I think

I've seen MUCH worse

[shy sluice]

I mean I overpaid for my FTW3 for sure but whatever I got a card when it was nearly impossible to

this was beginning of June when it was even worse

Full disclosure tho, I paid for it at the end of April

but their website said backorder of at least a month

now they have stock

so it may be different

I'll give you the dude's email or even email him myself if you want

Actually no I didn't even really overpay that bad

$780 for an EVGA RTX3070 FTW3 Ultra?

That's not awful

[green harness]

Less than $100 over the EVGA price

[shy sluice]

It's $100 over

[green harness]

Not awesome but not horrid given You got a card

[shy sluice]

exactly

I'd assume that you all are working on your like 3d, 4th, 5th, or more card by now

so it makes more sense to be patient for better prices

but when you're working on getting your first or even 2d, it's like ya just give it to me that's like $500 less than ebay or amazon

[green harness]

I've gotten two 30 series and 3 GPUs total, only ever had one card for myself at a time though. Other two went to others for msrp

[shy sluice]

heck I might even go rub it in the faces of those [things I can't say on discord] on Falcodrin's twitch talking all that [word I can't say on discord]

about I work for these people and they're too sketch

[green harness]

Go away scammer

[shy sluice]

it's like yo if you [word...discord] are so mo[word] smart why are you still here without GPUs?

Can I ban? if I type /ba it looks like I can lol

As mysteriously as it appeared, it disappeared hmm

[livid idol]

Lol it won't work. Go ahead and try to ban me, I dare you.

[shy sluice]

haha no you are like 5 levels above me in the color heirarchy

hierarchy

[livid idol]

Only mods can ban

And admins

[shy sluice]

Oh does that like recommend a ban or something?

[cosmic bluff]

I would laugh if a regular could use the ban command on themselves

[shy sluice]

or is it completely meaningless & I should never try it ever

[livid idol]

Go ahead and try it, you'll see

[shy sluice]

That's a yes to my second suggestion lol

[cosmic bluff]

Ima keep it real with ya.. I like this server and i aint tryna get slapped to the shadow realm

[shy sluice]

How does this even work? I just woke up one day and I was green

at first I thought I messed with some setting or an update changed it

[livid idol]

It's pretty useless for regular users like us

[shy sluice]

then when I couldn't find any setting it occurred to me to look to the right there

[livid idol]

There's a bot that tracks your "level", each level you gain gets you closer to the next tier

[shy sluice]

and it's just based on participation

[cosmic bluff]

Once you hit level 10 i think you get regular+

[shy sluice]

i.e. because I never shut up I get promoted?

[livid idol]

Go into #ranks-and-levels and type ! rank to see your level

Without the space of course

[shy sluice]

1,000,001 clueless overclocking questions later I get rewarded? lol

[cosmic bluff]

Im 11 and i was talkin a bit not too long ago so i assumed that it was level 10

[green harness]

Do I get a new color at 20?

[livid idol]

#roles explains the levels

[cosmic bluff]

I think once you hit 30 you get one or 35

[toxic sinew]

Level 20 to 30 seems like it is taking forever

[shy sluice]

See all that time talking to myself in overclock paid off

lol

I'm like live tweeting my overclocking disappointments

[cosmic bluff]

Oh your higher than me neat

[shy sluice]

They're actually going to create a new tier just for me called either "never learns despite asking repeatedly" or "the reason no one talks in overlock anymore"

[hollow heath]

Is there an audio part of the discord lmao

[shy sluice]

ya what's that for?

[hollow heath]

I had a question about audio equipment but idk where I can ask loll

[shy sluice]

I've contributed like two things ever

I was the one that found the command to disable hyper-v so bus clocks wouldn't fall under 100mhz

& uh I helped some lady with powerline adapters earlier

[livid idol]

Yeah there's voice channels here, people use them for gaming sometimes. Usually just the special hidden voice channel though.

[shy sluice]

and some dude who wanted fans

[hollow heath]

Nah I meant I have a question about audio equipment

Idk if there's a specific place I can ask it

[shy sluice]

oh actually I kinda know that

ish

shoot lol

[cosmic bluff]

I think thats #peripherals-and-displays but i could be wrong

[shy sluice]

like DJ or car stereo type things I might be useful

I went through both of those phases

lol

[livid idol]

Yeah #peripherals-and-displays for audio stuff, lots of people know about DACs and the like

[shy sluice]

Active speakers: ElectroVoice

JBL eons may look good but EONs are deceiving with their bluetooth, don't support actual streaming just control via app

okay no one asked

sorry

I'll hop over on peripherals and observe

[hollow heath]

Yeah I asked over there it had more to do with the actual like software side but yeah

[shy sluice]

Audacity

[opaque stratus]

Hi, anyone knows why my 2060 super turnoff when i use the latest nvidia drivers?

[toxic sinew]

What do you mean turns off?

Could you explain further?

[opaque stratus]

I install latest drivers, works normally, starts game, and like 10 minutes after start playing, the pc just turn off

only happens with the latest three updates

[toxic sinew]

What are your temps?

What PSU do you have?

[opaque stratus]

playing it's 65 to 75 centigrades

[toxic sinew]

What PSU do you have and have you tried reseating the GPU and the GPU power connections?

[opaque stratus]

https://www.corsair.com/lm/es/Categorías/Productos/Unidades-de-fuentes-de-alimentación/rm-series-config/p/CP-9020056-NA

this is my psu

[opaque stratus]

how do you reset that xd?

a it's weird because this only happens with latest drivers

with the 466.11 works fine

[toxic sinew]

Oh

I suggest sending an email or something to Nvidia then, and use 466.11

[livid idol]

DDU in safe mode to remove drivers and settings, then reinstall

[opaque stratus]

https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html this one?

[livid idol]

Yep, make sure to run it in safe mode

[opaque stratus]

ok i will try that

and just install the latest driver normally,no?

[livid idol]

I've seen a couple issues with the latest drivers so maybe the july 19 drivers, the last WHQL version before this one

https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/177772/en-us

[opaque stratus]

i have to install the drivers in safe mode too?

[livid idol]

They won't install in safe mode so once you use DDU reboot to normal mode

[opaque stratus]

😮

Ok

xd

[mellow glen]

466.77 was the last stable one for me, the newest one was giving me issues for a few games

[opaque stratus]

I am back and alive

So far, it's going good

still testing

[keen nacelle]

Wait what game is it again?

Games that use each anti cheat sometimes mess up your pc, especially with nvidia cards and 5000 series cpus

Did it to me a while back

[livid idol]

It was graphics drivers bugging out

[opaque stratus]

Yeah, so far it was that

half a hour playing and no problem

Thank you @livid idol

[livid idol]

Great! Happy to help

[shy sluice]

Sorry to @ you

I cannot figure out

how I lost 2000 points of graphics score in Time SPy

I've probably spent over 10 hours investigating

I rolled back my BIOS settings to get rid of my core voltage offset (long shot)

I've tried nearly every reasonable combination of X1 overclock settings

I just cannot get close again

I dunno what else I can do

I disconnected both recently attached monitors too

[livid idol]

DDU drivers and try again. If it's the graphics score that dropped it's 100% the GPU or related to it

[shy sluice]

I reinstalled 3dmark

okay I'll uninstall then reinstall

I can see on the results comparison, that it's running the same driver for both my current mediocre scores and the good ones

The weirdest part is, my Port Royal Score has never been higher

[rough harness]

Who wants to sell me a 3080ti? Lol

[livid idol]

Careful, #rules number 9, they're pretty strict on it

[shy sluice]

left: 12,734; right: 14,881

[livid idol]

Yeah not much real difference between the 2, probably a driver or settings issue

[shy sluice]

I also restored default settings on Nvidia Control Panel

For Driver reinstall, can I just do custom then clean install on geforce?

oh look

there's new drivers today

[livid idol]

No that doesn't wipe everything out like DDU does

[shy sluice]

I'll do clean install tho

okay uh

dumb questoin

question

what's DDU?

like remove them from device manager?

[livid idol]

https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

[shy sluice]

ah okay

[livid idol]

Boot into safe mode and run that, check all the nvidia options, clean and restart, then install the drivers again from normal mode

[shy sluice]

got it thank you

should I check all general options. Presently, Store config file in roaming folder is only option not checked. AMD options: uncheck all? Intel options: remove Intel control panel? Advanced: enable safe mode dialog is not checked; prevent downloads from windows update is

Sorry for making you hold my hand here...

I would think AMD specific refers to AMD graphics cards, not my CPU, correct?

[livid idol]

Correct, this is only for GPU and some audio drivers

If you don't have anything related to it then the option is skipped so it doesn't really hurt to check AMD options but still, not needed

General stuff leave on default

Then all the nvidia options

[shy sluice]

This should be pinned lol

okay the deed is done. I'm gonna open GeForce and install new driver

or should I uninstall then resinstall that first?

jk it was already removed

[livid idol]

Yeah that's one of the things that can interfere with the drivers so it gets uninstalled too

[shy sluice]

lol this darn monitor is portrait

so I'm getting a pain in the neck getting it back to working

cuz if I move it I'll have to get the tape measure so it matches the other one again

If this doesn't work, I don't know what will

it makes no sense at all

I'm out of things to do. Restoring a BIOS profile from before the issues would fix anything there so I dunno

okay I'm gonna run my 28th Time Spy for the day

I tried just about every X1 config earlier

I saw where Fitz said the increments are 15 not 25 so I fixed the increments to reflect multiples of 15

[idle idol]

is the rx 6600 xt gonna release at midnight?

[livid idol]

Probably not midnight

[crisp ocean]

should i

[livid idol]

Should you what? It doesn't say what you're buying lol

[keen nacelle]

Wtf you buying lmao

[crisp ocean]

msi gaming trio 3080tik

actual price will be like 1843

[keen nacelle]

That's ebay prices

[crisp ocean]

USD

ig

[hot folio]

Personally I’d buy it

[keen nacelle]

Why lmao

[hot folio]

Usually I see 3080tis around 2k

[livid idol]

Not terrible for a good model 3080 ti

[hot folio]

And a gaming trio is one of the higher end 3080tis

[keen nacelle]

It's like 50$ under ebay prices

[hot folio]

Would you rather spend $50 more or $50 less?

[livid idol]

Normally that would be a good thing 🙃

[keen nacelle]

I see 3080 tis for 1600 very often

[livid idol]

Sure but that's one of the better models

[hot folio]

The only ones I see in that price range are Zotacs, ventus and eagles

[keen nacelle]

Idk it's up to you

[hot folio]

Well most of the time

[keen nacelle]

Not really

You looking at r/hws?

[hot folio]

Yeah I was

And eBay

MSRP is 679

[keen nacelle]

Yeah

That's msrp+tax

Go for it

[hollow heath]

Yeah for sure

It's faster than a 3060 Ti right?

[hot folio]

About the same

[keen nacelle]

Eh

Technichally in pure performance yes

In actually performance no

It trades blows with 3060 ti including rtx and dlss

However with amds version of dlss coming out hopefully soon it'll probably be closer to a 3070

[hot folio]

Depends on the game

[hollow heath]

Really?

Well it's at least faster than a 1080 Ti

[keen nacelle]

Yeah thats why it trades blows

[hot folio]

Barely I’m pretty sure

[hollow heath]

Depends on games tbh

For the most part yeah barely

[hot folio]

Nvm it’s about 20-30% better

In real world performance

[hollow heath]

Oh ok

That's a good boost?

[keen nacelle]

Yeah its def better than 1080 ti

[livid idol]

Well that can make the difference of going from 50 to 60+ fps, or from 120 to 150

[keen nacelle]

It's better than a 2080 including dlss and rtx

1080 ti is about 2070s including both of them

[hollow heath]

Oh ok so it's definitely worth it

Honestly I'm getting the card for pretty much MSRP

[keen nacelle]

Yep

With this market that's about all you can ask for

[hollow heath]

I should test the card out before he leaves right?

[livid idol]

Ideally yes

If it ends up being broken you'll never see them again

[hollow heath]

True
