[cursive meteor]

Someone earlier said Atlanta lol.

I think it was about microcenter though.

[cosmic bluff]

And its a 2017 dodge ram 1500 with a V6 i forgot the liters tho

[cursive meteor]

Hehe.

[cosmic bluff]

Im saving the money i get from pc building to buy a new house cause im tryna get a 5 bedroom 3 bathroom house and be able to set up network that can split a gb/s network to each room

[keen nacelle]

Not much better you'll find for that price, I haven't seen anything

[cosmic bluff]

Honestly i feel like im living a good life tbh being able to do this kind of stuff im young still so im proud lol

[cursive meteor]

People say I’m young but I feel old.

[cosmic bluff]

Same

[cursive meteor]

Wheres theo with that old Pepe emote when you need him.

[cosmic bluff]

Lol

But its funny cause i am younger than you but we still have great knowledge of stuff

[cursive meteor]

All that just comes with experience and all.

[vital pivot]

Well no new pc parts

[cursive meteor]

I think I know less than @dense flicker, and he’s lots younger than me.

[cosmic bluff]

I know way less than most here but nice car

K-k-kia pet

[cursive meteor]

Man I still don’t like Kia.

But nice car though.

[cosmic bluff]

Well when kia first came out there was an offer that they trusted their cars so much that if you bought one kia you got another one free

But that was a long time ago

[cursive meteor]

Lmfao that’s pretty funny.

I Shouldn’t talk I drive an American car.

Which are seen as unreliable as well lmfao.

[cosmic bluff]

Eh unreliable if you blow the engine or have cylinders 3 and 5 pack their bags and convert to a 4 cylinder engine

[cursive meteor]

Idk how you could blow the engine in a stock car.

I guess if you force it at 7000 RPM when it’s like 7f outside.

But any car will die like that lmfao.

[cosmic bluff]

Yeah

I watched a buddy of mine have his rod pack a bag and become an astronaut

[cursive meteor]

Lmfao.

[cosmic bluff]

But he had ordered a new engine and when placing in the freeze plugs and knocked it into the engine and had to disassemble to get it out and happened like 2 more times i just sat and laughed at his pain

[cursive meteor]

That’s happened to me like 3 times now

That mustang I’ve been working on has so many things laying somewhere in the engine area.

[cosmic bluff]

Ah rip

[cursive meteor]

Mostly screws.

Gotta stop drinking while I work on the car.

[cosmic bluff]

No what sucks is when you have someone that threw a rod and its all in the oil pan

I had ripped the entire camshaft apart and had to put a new rod and make sure there was no damage or friction when running and i had taken off the oil pan to oil with metal slivers brighter than pink pc

[cursive meteor]

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiip.

I remember when my jeep died.

And it was under warranty, the guys at the dealership said my oil pan was a maraca.

BIG metal shavings.

[cosmic bluff]

It was a Chrysler voyager that i had to repair

[cursive meteor]

Was a jeep renegade for me.

[cosmic bluff]

Inverted engines imo are odd to me

[cursive meteor]

Engine was badly built, I showed proof of maintenance and I got a free engine.

Then it started to make squeaking noises when cold so I traded it for my dodge.

I should mention this car had only 8000 miles.

[cosmic bluff]

Oh fun

My old 98 blazer i had rebuilt the engine from bottom up and never ran into an issue until after 78k miles then i had a coolant hose issue but that was it

[cursive meteor]

See I want my charger to last that long.

[cosmic bluff]

But think i bought my ram for 38k brand new cash in hand (cash makes prices drop) and it was funny to see the dealers reaction to me buying it

[cursive meteor]

I’m planning on keeping it for a long time.

Until it’s considered vintage historic.

[cosmic bluff]

I have my truck because of fishing and shark fishing equipment

But i want a ranger to be better on mpg

[cursive meteor]

What year Ram was it,

I like everything about Ram except for the stupid dial shifter.

[cosmic bluff]

I get like 25mpg to around 30mpg and its a 2017

Also arent ya like 24 or something like that

[cursive meteor]

I am 24 yes.

[cosmic bluff]

Oh nice im only 20 rip

[cursive meteor]

Not bad at all lmfao.

And you feel old??

[cosmic bluff]

Think i was 16 buying a truck and i feel old because of body damage

[cursive meteor]

Rip.

I want to buy A truck when I move out.

My dad might be selling his old tundra soon.

I am renting a place atm with my girlfriend and we’re saving money to splurge more when we move out.

[cosmic bluff]

Yeah i got all the money i had from having an off the books job of a bit of mechanic work and some construction work building sheds and tiny houses

I also have a 2008 honda shadow sabre motorcycle but i rarely get to take it out anymore

[cursive meteor]

So you’re a mechanic then?

[cosmic bluff]

A beginner

[cursive meteor]

I am mega noob at car stuff.

[heady turtle]

back pain am i right

[cosmic bluff]

Lol yes

[cursive meteor]

I only know how to take stuff out and put stuff back where I got it from

[cosmic bluff]

But i did after market car work or engine rebuilds

[cursive meteor]

I wouldn’t be able to do that.

[heady turtle]

If it makes you feel any better I've had mine since about 15 xD

[cosmic bluff]

The best job ive done was my old 2008 avenger going from a 2.1L I4 to a 2.4L Dual VVT 4 Cylinder and putting on a centrifugal supercharger on it

[real gulch]

This isnt graphics card discussions lol

[heady turtle]

So

[brave violet]

Maybe need a channel for car stuff

[cursive meteor]

Someone ping Nataly tomorrow.

[cosmic bluff]

Lol a mechanics hub channel

[cursive meteor]

Newegg does sell car parts.

[cosmic bluff]

Oh yeah they do i forgor

[real gulch]

Yeah

[real gulch]

Forgor?

[cosmic bluff]

Yes forgor

[heady turtle]

Clearly forgot typo lmao

[brave violet]

hahahahah

[cursive meteor]

You sure it’s not forgob?

[heady turtle]

Idk i cant remember, i flip flopped what i was gonna say

[cosmic bluff]

Lol

Gonna be honest tho when you uprgade from a xbox 360 to a gtx 965m to a 1660 to a monster 3090 it does hit different and its mind blowing that it all happened

[heady turtle]

I'd say so

[cosmic bluff]

This was my ole 2008 avenger that i dont have anymore when i lived in arizona

I had my dodge ram put in hands of my family when i traveled

I took real good care of my cars

[brave violet]

nice @cosmic bluff my mom had a 04 dodge intrepid that lasted 10 years 200K

I almost brought/lease a '14 dodge avenger too 3.5V6

[cosmic bluff]

Nice

I think the one car i owned that had the most miles of around 589k was probably a chevy elcamino

[brave violet]

I do miss driving 97 chrysler Sebring Convertible white

maybe next year or when I pay my current car I'll buy 96-00 sebring

[cosmic bluff]

I do want to get a volvo C70

[vital pivot]

I miss my Dodge Stealth RT

But this stinger Gt will do

[hollow heath]

Why when I turn on resizable bar my GPU starts screeching lmao

[cosmic bluff]

Oof screeching on amd rip is it the fans screeching?

[vital oriole]

screeching in which way?

[hollow heath]

Like coil whine lmao

[vital oriole]

hm

Well that's sad

[cursive meteor]

I don’t even own a wok.

Well, we have an electric stove.

So I don’t think a wok would work.

At all lmfao.

I have a grill with a burner, but it’s far too small

Oooo that’s a thing isn’t it.

[magic wing]

Resizable bar isnt great

Small perf gains in some games

Massive fps drops in others

If you only play supported games, rebar is good

[slate junco]

What’s the difference between 1660 super and 1650 super

Is it a major difference?

Alright

Ty

[keen nacelle]

I found a laptop with a 1650 for 550

Was lowkey tempted

[slate junco]

Yeah seems like 1660 is the way to go then, currently only 100$ more in all the prebuilds i’m looking at

[keen nacelle]

I can link you a good pre build dark if you want

I used to help a ton of people find them

I have a link somewhere for a 1660s pc for 850$

[brisk flame]

hehe

[keen nacelle]

Well there's this, you'll want to add more ram tho https://www.adorama.com/acdge26aa002.html

[brisk flame]

listed this 20 mins ago, already got two hits

[slate junco]

Yeah i’m looking for a ryzen 5 3600 and 1660 super which are around 1k atm for all prebuilds i find

[keen nacelle]

10400 is better than 3600

Slightly

[slate junco]

i’ve heard that yeah

something about it being faster

[keen nacelle]

You'll have to spend the extra to add 8gb more ram, but its worth it

Also cheaper than the ones you're looking at

I'll see if i can find another

[slate junco]

are there any 10400s with 16gb of ram already installed?

[magic wing]

Gimme 10 mins to get on pc then ill help

[keen nacelle]

Not that I saw, but its easy af to add ram

You just need to match the stick up to make sure its compatible once you have the pc

Or just replace it with a 2x8 kit

[slate junco]

I wanna stay away from touching the computer if I can honestly it’s not that i’m intimidated but i’m just a noob in general

[keen nacelle]

What's your budget?

[slate junco]

Around 1.1k

[keen nacelle]

Sick

You can get a better pc than that then if you want

[slate junco]

Nice

[keen nacelle]

Also, are you fine with a laptop

?

There's laptops with a 3060 for 1k

[slate junco]

Yeah I also found one with a 2060 and had a 1660ti but only 8gb of ram sadly

[slate junco]

Ehh

Not my cup of tea honestly

[keen nacelle]

Kk

[radiant vine]

so sending back my rx 6800 XT to newegg due to a 1 defect display port 😦 sad I love these card

[cursive meteor]

Now that’s a fat rip.

[radiant vine]

it's seams that this issue is not isolated issue. but same because It's a very good GPU...playing Fs2020 ultra on 3 screens but as I have 4 screen...one miss

[keen nacelle]

One piece of advice

Do NOT buy skytech

They screwed me over badly, and did nothing about it

Their customer service sucks

[slate junco]

Lmao everyone keeps saying don’t buy skytech wow

Heard it from 5 people now

[keen nacelle]

I ended up basically paying 1275$ after tax for a ryzen 3600, 3060 ti, and 1tb ssd

[slate junco]

What went wrong?

[keen nacelle]

I dont really trust this, but its cheap af if anyone on pc can check through to see if its legit https://www.walmart.com/ip/ASUS-ROG-Strix-G15CK-Gaming-Entertainment-Desktop-PC-Intel-i5-10400F-6-Core-32GB-RAM-512GB-SATA-SSD-NVIDIA-GTX-1660-SUPER-Wifi-Bluetooth-Win-10-Home-/891726610

[keen nacelle]

I went to replace the motherboard, case was incompatible

Made to only fit the crappy mobo that came with it that started dying after 3 months

[slate junco]

damn

[keen nacelle]

Then, the case fans were incompatible with anything else, used a certain connector

Then, the cpu fan was even worse than a wraith prism

Then, the ram was slow and I found some for 40$ so I replaced it

The power supply wasn't what it was supposed go be, 400w white instead of 600w gold, so replaced that

And I think that's everything?

[slate junco]

Jeez

Yeah i’ve heard it from 5 people now about their sky tech problems

Abs seems like the best one so far

What are your thoughts on alienware?

[keen nacelle]

Abs is definitely great

Alienware has awful cooling

You can forgo your heating bill if you buy one

[slate junco]

[keen nacelle]

Cyberpower and ibuypower tend to be decent but overpriced

Asus is decent, but again they're toasters

[magic wing]

budget?

[keen nacelle]

For the most part

Acer same thing

[magic wing]

@slate junco

[keen nacelle]

Can't think of many other mainstream pc vendors

That i see often anyways

[slate junco]

1.1k

[magic wing]

Aight thanks gimme min

[keen nacelle]

There used to be a pc with a 3060 for 1.1k

I'll see if its still a thing

[slate junco]

What do you think about this

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08VWRVMNY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_S6AH69RDDTYGA7GSVQ8W

[keen nacelle]

Nah it's nkt

Overpriced and imbalanced

Amazon is awful for pcs

If you can go over budget you can get a pc with a 3060 pretty easily

Maybe around 1200

[magic wing]

https://www.newegg.com/abs-ala242/p/N82E16883360146?Item=N82E16883360146&Description=abs gaming desktop&cm_re=abs_gaming desktop-_-83-360-146-_-Product

get that

little over budget

but comes with 16gb ram

so no need to pay more for ram later

and has a 2060

also great prebuilt

[slate junco]

difference between 2060 and 1660 super?

lel

[keen nacelle]

If you're patient and you're fine with the price, this is great price/performance https://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?st=3060+pc&_dyncharset=UTF-8&_dynSessConf=&id=pcat17071&type=page&sc=Global&cp=1&nrp=&sp=&qp=&list=n&af=true&iht=y&usc=All+Categories&ks=960&keys=keys

You'll have to wait for it to come in stock though

Which could take a while, and then you have to be lucky enough to order it before the bots and other people get it

[magic wing]

2060 is around 20% better

[magic wing]

bad cooling

I wouldnt

[keen nacelle]

Here's benches https://technical.city/en/video/GeForce-RTX-2060-vs-GeForce-GTX-1660-Super

[magic wing]

both the cpus output a lotta heat

[keen nacelle]

Sorry the link didn't copy correctly

[slate junco]

o

[keen nacelle]

But like I said before, you'd have to get lucky

[vital oriole]

cyberpower

ehh

that one doesn't seem crap at the least

[magic wing]

eh a 3060 is not too much better than a 2060 tbf

[vital oriole]

but ^

[magic wing]

3060 is just bad value

[keen nacelle]

It's nearly 20% better

[magic wing]

get a 2070 instead imo

either way this is 100 above budget

[magic wing]

*this

[shut pollen]

is the 1080ti still worth it? found 1 second handed at 600$us

[vital oriole]

no

not worth 600

i'd spend 400 max on it

[slate junco]

Alright thanks so so much guys, i’ll see what I decide from both of these. I’ll keep watching videos and stuff learning about these things.

Greatly appreciated

[magic wing]

https://www.newegg.com/abs-ala264/p/N82E16883360178?Item=N82E16883360178&Description=abs gaming desktop&cm_re=abs_gaming desktop-_-83-360-178-_-Product

this is also an option

also exactly in budget

no need to add more ram either

[vital oriole]

ye

I agree with rawr

[slate junco]

Alright the more options the better, thanks!

[keen nacelle]

@sterile parcel https://www.reddit.com/r/hardwareswap/comments/pbqhdd/usail_h_nitro_5_gaming_laptop_w_paypal_or_local/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

I'm thinking about it

[magic wing]

acer nitro 5s have abysmal build quality

[keen nacelle]

I know

[vital oriole]

They feel solid enough to me irl

[magic wing]

and an abysmal name

[vital oriole]

Oculus logo

Yep it has a 1060

At least 3 gigs

That's a nice deal tho

Undervolt it and cooling is fine

[keen nacelle]

I'd just use a cooling pad

But I've been looking to get a cheap laptop with a dgpu

[vital oriole]

It won't need one if you undervolt, but would help

[keen nacelle]

Was planning on getting smthn with a gpu around a 660 or 670m

Or might go for smthn with a broken battery

[vital oriole]

400 for that is not shabby but over your budget I suppose

[keen nacelle]

Since I don't need a working battery as long as it works plugged in

Technichally, I offered 375 and I'll go from there

I have more to spend but I was hoping not to, but its a nice price so I'll see how it goes

[vital oriole]

I got my 850M lappy for 300

Pretty sad

I missed that 1050 asus one time, it was gone before I could get it

[keen nacelle]

If I don't get a laptop I'll prolly just get stuff for fishing lol

Maybe a nice nvme drive

[vital pivot]

I have to buy 2 laptops for my techs.

Intel of course.

Mainly proprietary software doesn’t like AMD processors.

[cursive meteor]

I hate that.

I wonder why some software doesn’t like AMD though.

[vital pivot]

Btw kids. Don’t drive a truck to a dealership to buy a car. They offer insane trade in deals.

I bought 2 cars.

[magic wing]

lack of instruction sets

amd doesnt include old instruction sets anymore that intel does

[normal hawk]

The igpu's compete with 660m though, so why worry about getting a GPU that old? Especially since it's drivers are no longer supported.

[keen nacelle]

just want smthn to run valorant lol

need smthn around 730 perf

[warm trail]

Best Buy card drop 8/26/2021!!
3060TI and 3080Ti's at MSRP!

[normal hawk]

Wouldn't one of the Vega or Intel iris CPU's handle it better? Especially since with a GPU that old you'll also be getting a CPU that old and mobile cpu's back then were rough

[keen nacelle]

yeah i said around as in around that perf

[livid idol]

There's a lot more than just that, everything from 3060 to 3090 is dropping

[cosmic bluff]

actually the waitlist announced 3080, 3080ti and 3090 but nothing on 3060, 3060ti, or 3070 but i coudl be wrong

Just got the email saying 3060Ti a few moments ago.

[cosmic bluff]

i have to go there anyway to pick up 3 gpus but i dont have to worry about that line issue due to Schrodinger best buy of mine

hmm different i guess for each

[normal hawk]

https://youtu.be/DP0wADK6yPM Vega 3 performance

[livid idol]

Yeah each store is getting different quantities of each but most are getting at least a few of each model. Anywhere from 110-190 total each branch.

[cosmic bluff]

yeah

[magic wing]

ur mostly gonna be cpu or ram bound here tbh

[cosmic bluff]

im gonna be spending a few grand tho to finish customer list and have to wait till they open to head there

[livid idol]

No I'll swing by around 4AM

[warm trail]

Glad I'm off in the morning. Off for a nap then make the treck .

[cosmic bluff]

lol

[livid idol]

Hoping no one gets trampled this time 🤞

[cosmic bluff]

luckily my bb has the motherboards i need (Asus Prime Z590) which i need two of and two I9-11850K

im just hoping they have the ram in stock cause i need like 4x8gb for the gaming rig and like 4x16gb for the workstation rig

[magic wing]

11850k?

[cosmic bluff]

i might have mistyped model let me check list

[magic wing]

u mean 10850k?

[cosmic bluff]

i was thinking of 10th gen but yeah i misread

it was 11900K

im used to people getting 10th gen

[magic wing]

11900k waste of sand

[livid idol]

The Best Buys near me haven't been restocking any major hardware at all, not since all the looting happened... We had a big store where I got all my electronic components like capacitors that got broken into also. They went bankrupt.

[cosmic bluff]

im just fulfilling orders

[livid idol]

Not even a waste of sand, should never have existed

[cosmic bluff]

i would of looked dumb if i went in there saying 11850k thanks for correcting me

[magic wing]

it is an overclocked version of a cpu that was a waste of sand

[hollow heath]

Really?

[keen nacelle]

There's a huge what I think is a hornet in my kitchen

[magic wing]

11850k doesnt exist

...

[hollow heath]

Rip

[cosmic bluff]

i realised that i mistyped

[keen nacelle]

It is now dead

[hollow heath]

Can someone with a RX 6000 series please tell me why my card acts weird in Fortnite?

[livid idol]

And then they marketed it as a competitor to their previous chip that had 2 more cores

[hollow heath]

Supposedly it's a bug or something but idk

[cosmic bluff]

im used to 10850k being a common order but seeing that 11th gen threw me off and dyslexia sucks in pc world

[livid idol]

Yep, scroll up for a list of branches and expected stock

[hollow heath]

How much is a 3060 Ti again?

[livid idol]

FE is $399

[keen nacelle]

400

[hollow heath]

Oh ok

I have a 6700 XT but It literally has some issue with FPS lmao

[keen nacelle]

It's about 6700xt perf for gaming including dlss, but when there's the amd version of it it'll probably be around 3070

The 6700xt that is

[hollow heath]

So the 6700XT is hidden potential lmao

[keen nacelle]

Yeah

But idk what your issue is

I've heard of there being issues with easyanticheat and 5000 series chips

[livid idol]

If you don't need the frills Nvidia gives you (DLSS, nvenc, better raytracing) AMD is a great option

[keen nacelle]

^^

[hollow heath]

Nah nah it's the GPU it has issues in CPU intensive games

[livid idol]

What memory are you running?

[hollow heath]

16 GB 3600 Mhz

[livid idol]

C16? Try to get to 3800

[keen nacelle]

I doubt that's the issue

[hollow heath]

How do I check the CL?

[livid idol]

Zentimings

[keen nacelle]

Check benches in timespy to see your gpu score

[hollow heath]

Actually I'll tell you right now

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07X8DVDZZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

[livid idol]

Not bad but not great either tbh. You should still be able to get 3800 on those with minimal effort.

[hollow heath]

Really?

[livid idol]

Yep. You might need to bump your voltages a tad but should work.

[hollow heath]

I might actually wanna try that

How do I do it

[livid idol]

Hop into bios. I assume you have XMP on already.

[hollow heath]

Yes

So crank to 3800 Mhz?

[cosmic bluff]

so the total cost after i walk out of best buy tomorrow with every part i need for both pcs is around 13,816.98 if i did my math correctly after taxes

[livid idol]

Yes, and change VDDP and VDDG to 1.0v, SoC to 1.05

[hollow heath]

Oh ok

[cosmic bluff]

my poor bank is gonna be confused of the random huge charge lol

[livid idol]

Might want to call them ahead of time and let them know, they might have a daily limit you don't know about

[cosmic bluff]

i will when they open at 8am two hours before bb opens

[hollow heath]

Where is this lmao

[livid idol]

What brand board do you have?

[cosmic bluff]

thankfully i dont have to custom loop the pcs lol

[hollow heath]

MSI

[livid idol]

Nice you'll have similar menu to mine

On the main overclocking tab, scroll down

[hollow heath]

To memory

[livid idol]

Past memory

It's past the CPU voltage

[hollow heath]

Ohhhh I see it

Here?

[keen nacelle]

Ow

[livid idol]

Yep, the VDDP and both VDDG

[keen nacelle]

But can't you only buy 1 gpu per person?

[livid idol]

You can leave SoC since it's 1.1v already

[cosmic bluff]

my best buy doesnt have those limits due to this one being a funky gpu wonderland for nvidia users

[keen nacelle]

Ah

[cosmic bluff]

amd gpus is always out of stock here

[hollow heath]

So like this?

[livid idol]

Yes

[hollow heath]

Oh ok

[livid idol]

Then you can scroll back up a bit and set DRAM frequency to 3800

[hollow heath]

I already did that

[livid idol]

Cool, save and reboot. See if it goes into Windows.

[hollow heath]

I’m in windows

How do I test if it’s stable lmao

[livid idol]

TM5 and OCCT

Or just pick one

I just use OCCT since TM5 doesn't load for me

[hollow heath]

I got OCCT

[livid idol]

Great, load up that memory test and leave it on default settings with a 1 hour timer

[hollow heath]

So if it survives it’s ok?

[livid idol]

If you finish the test with a green check that means no errors. Any errors at all means it failed.

At which point we bump to 1.05v

[hollow heath]

Oh ok

And if it doesn’t?

And is it ok if I have chrome in the back

[livid idol]

Yeah that's fine. It might run a little slow from low memory conditions but it'll still work.

[hollow heath]

Yeah I’m just watching a stream lmao

[livid idol]

If there's no errors, congrats your low effort OC is done

[magic wing]

OCCT not as good at all

[hollow heath]

Already an error lmao

Welp back to bios, set 1.05, and try again. If that fails I'll walk you through loosening up the other primaries a bit.

Oh ok

Ummmm

PC doesn’t even wanna boot

It shut off twice

It just said memory over clocking failed

Maybe I should just leave it at 3600 lmaooo

[livid idol]

If you want sure. 3600 c16 still isn't bad.

METR0B00MING#9608 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[hollow heath]

Oh crap

It turned off and it scared the poop out of me

[keen nacelle]

I use 3600 cl18 and it's fine, for the most part 3600 is the sweet spot for ryzen

Tho it can't hurt to have higher

[livid idol]

Just go back into bios and turn xmp off and on again

That'll reset most of the settings

[hollow heath]

I just put it back to where it was

Auto then put 3600 mhz

[slate junco]

Just ordered, and i’m hype. As a first timer with pcs is there anything I shouldn’t do / avoid on these kind of pcs?

[hollow heath]

Well it's a pre built so you should be good to go

If you want to upgrade something I would do ram first and get 3600 Mhz Ryzen loves fast ram

[keen nacelle]

Abs is trustworthy

They don't want to change anything

For gaming and having a 2060 faster ram won't really make a difference

[magic wing]

nah should run right out the box

[magic wing]

lmao WHAT

[magic wing]

yeh

Ryzen likes fast ram as it uses the ram to talk between cores

[keen nacelle]

Yes, and with a 2060 the performance boost won't make much of a difference

[magic wing]

so faster ram = lower latencies and better frame times as well as more frames

[keen nacelle]

And since they don't want to change anything there's no reason

[magic wing]

and how is 99th percentile lows and frame drops because cpu isnt talking between cores optimally related to gpu?

[magic wing]

"If you want to upgrade something I would do ram first and get 3600 Mhz Ryzen loves fast ram"

[keen nacelle]

When did I say that?

[magic wing]

what do you think IF YOU WANT TO UPGRADE means

[magic wing]

.

[magic wing]

.

[keen nacelle]

The second part

[magic wing]

what u on?

[keen nacelle]

You put quotation marks around it

Insinuating I said it

[magic wing]

.

[keen nacelle]

That isn't me lmao

[magic wing]

that was the comment above urs

[keen nacelle]

Yes, and I said there's no reason when pairing a 3600 with a 2060

[magic wing]

you said this right below it

and I call bs

[keen nacelle]

A 3600 is already more than enough for a 2060

When they don't want to change anything in the pc and it won't make much of a difference

There's no reason

Especially when it's already 3000mhz, 3600mhz is perfect for ryzen yes, but for their situation there's no point

[magic wing]

it literally doesnt matter what gpu u have if ur cpu stutters because it cant talk between cores fast enough

[keen nacelle]

Its not going to stutter, performance will be a bit lower that's iy

[magic wing]

3200-3600 for my 3600x with a worse gpu was 10-15% perf gains in fps on my system

[keen nacelle]

My 3600 didn't stutter at even 2666mhz ram

[magic wing]

sus

[keen nacelle]

I ahd maybe 5% improvement from 2666 to 3600

With a 3060 ti

[magic wing]

I find that next to impossible to believe

[keen nacelle]

Good for you

[magic wing]

also look at lows not average

lmao

lows are what you feel

[keen nacelle]

I never did exact benches or paid exact attention to frames, but thats about rhe important I saw

Hell I only got like 50 average improvement in cinebench

[magic wing]

Ive played games that were literally unplayable at 60+fps average because frame times were garbage

[magic wing]

yes because cinebench doesnt care about ram speed

or latencies

even a little

@mighty island did some testing on that

test in games

lol

[keen nacelle]

Anyways

It's 2 am

I'm too tired for this

Gn

[magic wing]

but yes you are 100% incorrect in saying faster ram not worth it because of a certain gpu

faster ram is worth it even on my rx570

[keen nacelle]

👍

[mighty island]

i saw 20% improvement in pure graphics score on a 3070 with 2666c12 vs 3733c14

[keen nacelle]

3070 is different than a 2060

[mighty island]

both full manual

not saying he needs to upgrade 3000mhz for a 3600

that's fine

but in general ram speed is a lot more important than you're seeming to imply

[magic wing]

3000 is fine ye but if he wants to upgrade next upgrade should be ram

[keen nacelle]

I said in their situation

Multiple times

[mighty island]

i just got here because i was pinged

[magic wing]

which is exactly what the guy said

[mighty island]

i'm in a game

i'm not going to read everything

sorry

[magic wing]

and im saying ram upgrade worth it in any situation lol

me and sippy

[mighty island]

3000mhz ram is fine for 3600 2060 imo

not ideal

[magic wing]

for averages yes

[mighty island]

but not bad enough that it's worth the upgrade

might as well manual oc it to 3200c16

[magic wing]

3600 will give far smoother gameplay

[mighty island]

has a 99% chance to work

[magic wing]

less stutters

[keen nacelle]

Which is, again, exactly what I said

[magic wing]

Oh no you didnt

[keen nacelle]

.

[mighty island]

i've done a lot of midrange builds with 3200c16 never saw meaningful stuttering

[keen nacelle]

.

[keen nacelle]

.

[magic wing]

no point means useless. its is useful just not absolutely necessary

lol

[keen nacelle]

When did I say useless?

[mighty island]

anyways yall have fun i'm going back to my game

[magic wing]

I'd like to be under 550 us dollards

[rustic pulsar]

is used fine?

[analog wolf]

As long as I wasn't mind on or serious overclocking then yes

[rustic pulsar]

then maybe go for a 1080 on ebay

[analog wolf]

I'd like ray tracing 😁

[rustic pulsar]

then go for a 2060

looks like they go for 500-600 on ebay

[analog wolf]

Well I'm going for a 3060 or 3060ti

I might have to wait but thats fine

[rustic pulsar]

in the current market, 3060s go for 600+ and 3060ti go for 800+

[hot folio]

Ehh a 2060 really isn’t a RT card

Minimum for RT I’d recommend is maybe a 2070 super

[jaunty mango]

i just realized im really stupid

[vital oriole]

500-600 for a 2060

breh

stupid

just don't get 2060 for that price lmao

it's worth 400 at best

[jaunty mango]

so like a couple days ago i came here with problems with my gpu and i thought i had to downgrade my bios because it said it wasnt recommended for my cpu because i thought it was a pinnacle ridge

but it is in fact a picasso

[vital oriole]

3400g is zen+

[jaunty mango]

yep

its just a 2XXX ryzen with the 3XXX Branding

and with the vega 11 iGPU

but my computer works flawlessly now so im happy

[green harness]

Yeah, the Ryzen naming scheme (as with most tech naming schemes) is confusing

[jaunty mango]

yep

like the 37 million different confusing suffixes intel uses for there cpu names

i just looked up what there naming scheme is

i dont like

Intel is confusing indeed

especially there laptop processeors

[dreamy dragon]

corn#7035 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[novel kestrel]

Personally I love the amd range of gpus

[steep wind]

I would get a 3060Ti personally. The 6700XT might have the edge in raw performance in some situations. However, the RTX lineup of GPUs has many very useful features that IMO make Nvidia the clear winner of this generation.

[keen nacelle]

@slate junco Check this out on @Newegg: ABS Master Gaming PC - Intel i5 10400F - GeForce RTX 3060 - 16GB DDR4 3000MHz - 512GB SSD https://www.newegg.com/abs-ali489/p/N82E16883360084?Item=N82E16883360084&Source=socialshare&cm_mmc=snc-social-_-sr-_-83-360-084-_-08272021

[steep wind]

Nvidia has DLSS (in some titles), Reflex (in a lot of titles, especially competitive ones), RTX Voice (very good microphone noise cancelling), and actually good Raytracing performance compared to the RX6000 series

[heady turtle]

Rtx voice is underrated

Rtx broadcast, cameras beta is pretty good too

[steep wind]

Don't air quotes me.

You get what I mean you dingus.

The RX6000 series has poop performance compared to RTX3000 in Raytraced titles.

Especially titles with Global Illumination

[pallid coyote]

Yup

[keen nacelle]

Whenever I streamed I had to turn rtx off

I was upset until I found out it sucked for cw lol

Atleast for zombies I had to turn it off

Multi-player was fine

[steep wind]

Yes, but if you look at the other features the RTX cards offer, (DLSS, Reflex, and RTX Broadcast) it's quite clear that Nvidia is still winning in the GPU War

In some FPS games. In Doom? Crank that Ultra Nightmare graphics setting

I tend to crank Shadows in most competitive games, and View Distance, but that's about it.

[cerulean rover]

Reflex can be good for comp games

[steep wind]

I mean, DLSS also is meant to improve visual fidelity at the same time as save frames.

[cerulean rover]

Dlss is very useful for higher resolutions

3060 for 1440p for example

[steep wind]

Although SOME developers (Looking at you Capcom) lock DLSS to 1440p and higher

[cerulean rover]

Yes

[vital oriole]

Intel claims that XeSS, their own DLSS counterpart will work on any cards

It does look promising with early demos

[heady turtle]

amd/intels solution works on Nvidia gpus

[novel kestrel]

How many Ray tracing games are there though to make it worth while have a card that you pay more for just to have the rt cores

[vital oriole]

It's not paying more actually

6700XT has meeeeh price

So is 6600XT

The only cards worth it would be 6800XT and 6900XT

And it's sad how they're all vram bandwidth bottlenecked

[heady turtle]

6600xt actually good card tho

[vital oriole]

It's meh imo

Similar msrp as 5700xt, and equal perf

It's stagnation

The 128 bits vram hurts my soul

[novel kestrel]

I think the whole range of 6000 series cards are under rated cause everyone has always loved and had nvida and amd are now coming into spot light

[heady turtle]

Thing is you can actually for for msrp in these times

[vital oriole]

Underrated?

Nah, they're sought after actually

Cause well, gpu shortages makes people willing to get anything

[heady turtle]

Yeah I'd rather have a 6900xt than a 3080 ti tbh

[vital oriole]

^

[heady turtle]

Rtx voice is actually so underrated

[vital oriole]

rtx voice could be used in 900 series cards too

[heady turtle]

https://youtu.be/uWUHkCgslNE

[vital oriole]

yeah it's a cool ai

[heady turtle]

Yeah but the perf gets tanked

[vital oriole]

not much actually

[heady turtle]

Rtx broadcast is the name now

[vital oriole]

i guess useful for discord vcs, no gaming

if someone has 900 series card

which mouse?

nice

[heady turtle]

Suppose

Rommy I'll disc vc with you in about an hour and a half, 2 hrs and show you the diff of rtx voice

Also the vid i sent is very good too lol

Worth a watch

If interested

[normal hawk]

Even the 6600xt is being scalped a little lol. Damn

[heady turtle]

Git gud 😎

[normal hawk]

My dad will have to settle for the 580 for a bit longer then. Works in all the games he plays 🤷‍♂️

[heady turtle]

Still great card, especially if 8gb model

[normal hawk]

Sucks for workstation tasks despite the 8gb though tbh

Not that i know if a 6600xt is any better

[heady turtle]

6600xt would be an improvement unless he memory limited for some reason

[normal hawk]

He has a 2700x, 32gb 3000mhz ram, and an 8gb 580

[heady turtle]

Meant like vram

What it used for?

[normal hawk]

Web development, 3d modeling(3d printer), light video editing etc. I dunno the apps he uses.

[heady turtle]

If he doing 1080p video or simple projects 580 8gb should do fine ye

[runic crypt]

As below-budget as a GeForce GT 1030 is, a fellow 3D artist friend of mine told me that it might actually be enough for what their project needs if I can or want to contribute. It's decent for rendering 3DS-style models, apparently.

It's not terrible, but low end parts are just severely outclassed by other better things.

also i realized i don't like a lot of AAA games much anyway

[vital oriole]

You could just use igpu for that even

[runic crypt]

integrated?

i just don't want to put all the strain on the cpu

[vital oriole]

Yeah

[runic crypt]

it's a ryzen 3 of a sort

but seems painful

either way i'd rather have it sorta loud than really hot

[velvet nebula]

wassup yall. so this may seem like a really dumb question as of rn but im at a loss. built a new rig with i9 10900k and 32 gigs of ram for video edits and animating around Christmas last year, was planning on getting a 3080 to ad to it when they became available or when they’re easier to find. fast forward to now still rocking my old 1080 and stuck trying to find one that hasn’t been scalped to over 1.8k. i know there have been some people who were able to get it and what I want to know is whether just looking and waiting is enough or should I be doing something different. Sometimes I just sit in front of my computer for hours just refreshing the page and it never becomes available. any tips or tricks that y’all might have would be greatly appreciated 🙂

[livid idol]

Lots of people were able to get GPUs from the Best Buy drop yesterday. You just had to camp out for a while.

[velvet nebula]

where do you find out about these drops

[livid idol]

You just have to keep at it. Enter shuffle every day, if you're near Microcenter that's a good bet, EVGA queue (enter for the newer models with shorter lines)

[livid idol]

I found out about it here funny enough. There's some stock alert twitter and discord channels too.

[velvet nebula]

is the evga queue the auto notify they have on their website?

[livid idol]

Maybe? I haven't looked recently but it works similar

[velvet nebula]

where do you enter the shuffle?

[keen nacelle]

What's your budget? Anything msrp?

I see a couple a day for around 12-1300, which is still overpriced, but not ebay atleast

[velvet nebula]

ive got about 1500$ set aside for it. personally if im going to spend over 1100 id rather go for a 3080ti, but realistically i know thats a very difficult task.

[keen nacelle]

Cheapest 3080 ti I've seen is 1500, but I completely understand. I'd reccomend just the traditional methods of getting one at msrp

[cursive meteor]

Yeah they actually had one in stock at my microcenter for $1700.

But they won’t sell it to me bexuase I bought a HD 5450.

Screw microcenter.

There are a few for 1200 other than the FE. I got an EVGA XC3 for 1250 all told after the associate discount, tax, and shipping

No I meant on the people's market or whatever you want to call it

[slate ledge]

Hey, is facebook market a good place to buy the 3070

[green harness]

imo no

FB marketplace has a lot of scalpers and scammers

[keen nacelle]

I found someone to trade a 2080 ti to my 3060 ti 1:1

Evga 2080 ti xc

[heady turtle]

Why would they

[keen nacelle]

Theyre a miner and mine is non lhr

[heady turtle]

Hmm

[keen nacelle]

How's the 2080 ti mine?

I know higher power usage ofc

I tend to not trust Google for this

[heady turtle]

About as good as the 3060 ti iirc

According to nicehash, 2080 ti would mine 30c more profit/day

[keen nacelle]

Oh sick

Weird

Not my problem 😅

[heady turtle]

Hence why I would be very careful

[keen nacelle]

Yeah I'm having them send a video of it working

With display

[keen nacelle]

Is the xc thick?

Bc it looks like it won't fit in my pc

[heady turtle]

Xc black is 2 fan on the 2080 ti iirc

So probs 2 slots

Yeah tpu says 2 slots

[keen nacelle]

i mean height

it wont fit with my setup

itll hit my heatsink

[heady turtle]

Apparently its 1.54"thick/height depending on how it's orientated i guess

[keen nacelle]

ty

[keen nacelle]

so i think the xc wont fit my case, the guy is saying its fine since the back plate will go in the same spot, itll just be lower

is that true?

cooler master n400 and id cooling se-224xt on an asrock b550m/ac

2080 ti

yeah

[keen nacelle]

Any idea what connectors 3060 ti gigabyte gaming oc pro uses?

yeah thanks

and can i just plug another 8pin into my psu?

i have a 750bq

the cable i have extra is a 6 pin with 2 extra dangling

which leads to an 8pin

ah kk

ty

2080ti xc is 2x8pin tho right?

thanks

[runic crypt]

when you mention a gpu in your usertags, is it referring to the one you have or are aiming for?

[pallid coyote]

The one that they currently have

[cosmic bluff]

Ye the ones we have

But some people have their dreams

@pallid coyote I have no GPu in your tags. Thus you are a shy iGpu peasant

[hot folio]

If y’all were selling a rig with a 5900x and a 3090 in it with 32Gb of ram, how much would y’all sell it for?

[upper imp]

3200

[wicked hound]

idk, have a 3080Ti. Still staying with 3080 cuz already have custom block

[hot folio]

I’m thinking maybe like 4k

[wicked hound]

Look at local prices, consider what third market CPU+mobo+PSU+ram+ect will also cost, consider that 3090 isnt that desirable unless FE or KP cuz dumb prices

[hot folio]

I’ll send a pcpp list because I don’t really have time to research that stuff

I have until 12 tonight to send a price

[wicked hound]

Wait why - shouldnt you be able to post the ad whenever you want?

[hot folio]

Because it ain’t really an ad, a guy in another discord said he would be willing to buy it off of me and gave me till 12 today

To make an offer

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/G2HZVc

[vital pivot]

I wouldn’t sell my rig for less then $6k

[wicked hound]

I assume used?

[hot folio]

Yeah I’m selling it used

It’s my rig and the guy is asking me how much I would take for it

[wicked hound]

I generally dont know much of US market, but taking very vague guesses based on what I know of it and the CAN market it could probably be made for $3600 - $3700 based off average third market prices (so ignoring anything resembling actual good deals). If that's the case could probs ask $150 - $300 more then that cuz its all in one deal.

But again, I made guesses without any actual research. IF (decent IF here) my guesses are correct then 4k could probs be considered not bad and probably sellable to anyone who doesnt look for deals.

[hot folio]

Ok so yeah thanks I’ll just say the 4k and maybe he’ll bite

1769$ 3080 Ti

[rustic pulsar]

lmao

[normal hawk]

I mean it's better than this https://www.newegg.com/zotac-zt-a30810f-10p/p/N82E16814500515 1899$ 🤷‍♂️

[keen nacelle]

So someone wants to trade a 2080 ti evga xc for my gigabyte gaming oc pro 3060 ti, 1:1 trade. It's verified to be working, but it has no warranty on it remaining

Opinion?

[magic wing]

2080ti far better than 3060ti

keep ur 2080ti

[keen nacelle]

I'm getting the 2080 ti

But it doesn't have any warranty on it

[magic wing]

Ah do it then

[magic wing]

doesnt really matter tbh

but then of course its one of those things that is unecessary till its needed

I would personally do it

[keen nacelle]

I also don't know why it doesn't have warranty

[magic wing]

but its ur call

[keen nacelle]

Since it's evga and transferable

[heady turtle]

Ehhhh it depends i suppose

[green harness]

If enough time has passed the warranty would be over

If they bought it on release the warranty would be up by now

[keen nacelle]

Really? Didn't think there was enough time between now and then

[green harness]

Googling shows it was released August 2018 and the transferrable warranty is three years

If it's a B-stock item it'd be only 1 year

[keen nacelle]

B stock is refurbished right?

[green harness]

Yep

[green harness]

What do you mean? Looks pretty straight forward to me

[hot folio]

If it’s a 2080ti from like 2018-2019 I personally wouldn’t get it because they had major stability problems

And it’s not as if the 2080ti is a lot faster, it’s only about 10% faster than the 3060ti

@keen nacelle

[green harness]

I'd personally probably just keep the 60Ti as I think having a new part and a warranty is worth it even if it's not quite as fast, but I get the appeal of getting a slightly faster card

[hot folio]

Yeah definitely

I had a 2080ti than ended up dying on me after about 6-7 months and I remember reading online about a lot of other cases of them dying

I wouldn’t risk that without the warranty

[keen nacelle]

Alr, thanks

[solemn panther]

mmmm

[hot folio]

mmmm

[magic wing]

mmmm

[heady turtle]

mmmm

[green harness]

No worries, it happens.

[dreamy dragon]

najmi27#7531 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[keen nacelle]

So apparently it has a bit over 400 days of warranty left

Still, I'm gonna have it for 3+ years

So idk

I said my answer stays the same

[vital pivot]

If the guy is a friend and you face issues just have him claim any warranty issues

[cosmic bluff]

Sounds simple actually

[mild ruin]

So i can get a radeon 6000 with newegg shuffle?

[cosmic bluff]

Yes when they do appear in the shuffles but its the luck of the draw

[mild ruin]

how much do they cost with shuffle?
