I know, not sure how that relates to my comment

It's like a $2,000 card at MC so I'll consider that the msrp

[cursive meteor]

MC……

[green harness]

Looks like best case scenario (for the scalper) Stockx is charging them like 11% on the value of the sale

https://help.stockx.com/s/article/What-are-StockX-Selling-Fees?language=en_US

If they bought the card at MSRP and sold it at $2,200 the scalper loses $20 even assuming they didn't pay taxes or shipping on it

Course if they bought it at a discount or the card "fell off the back of a truck" they could make bank

[heady turtle]

Maybe they got at alright price or stopgap to 3090 and wanted to be generous🤷‍♂️

[green harness]

Maybe. I believe it has to be BNIB to sell on Stockx though

Or I guess you have to convince StockX it's BNIB 😆

[heady turtle]

Ohh didn't realize it had to be sealed box

[green harness]

I think it does, but I don't buy or sell there so I could be wrong

[sturdy rapids]

which one is better a rx580 or a 2060 for warzone

[green harness]

I only pass surplus GPUs on at msrp

😆

[magic wing]

2060 better at everything

[green harness]

I agree though, 2060

[sturdy rapids]

any way that i can get one for under 500 bucks

like 450 or 400

[heady turtle]

Luck

eBay

R/hardwareswap if you live in the us

[sturdy rapids]

i dont have reddit LOL

which one is better buying brand new or used

i feel like buying used is better because i can get one for a better price

[green harness]

Buying new IN GENERAL is better imo as you will generally have warranty support, but it really just depends on your situation

[sturdy rapids]

yea i want to get one for a low price

because i dont have a lot of money rn

[keen nacelle]

Buying any gpu new rn is hard, even older gpus. A 2060 on newegg is like 800$ or smthn ridiculous

[heady turtle]

You can't buy 2060s new anymore, they've been out of production for 2 ish years now, look for 2060 supers and 2070s and 3060s as well

As well as 6600xt

[green harness]

I know buying new is hard.....

It is still possible though through several different avenues. It takes some work and often luck though

[keen nacelle]

Not really with older cards

[green harness]

ofc not. I was saying buying new is better in general

[keen nacelle]

You were saying to buy a 2060 new

Unless I misunderstood

[green harness]

You misunderstood

[keen nacelle]

.

Then saying to buy new

Makes it seem like you meant a new 2060

[heady turtle]

Pretty misleading

[keen nacelle]

And you can have warranty with a used card, evga is pretty good with transferring warranties

[keen nacelle]

Btw pato I haven't registered my warranty for my 3060 ti, it's been since January, is it too late? Gigabyte

[green harness]

Older cards can be out of warranty at this point even with a transferrable warranty

[keen nacelle]

Idrk how warranties work with registering

[green harness]

Edited my post to make it more clear

[keen nacelle]

Yeah I know

[heady turtle]

U think you get a year? To do it? I would do it asap tho

[keen nacelle]

But some could even have 2 years left if they had 3years

[keen nacelle]

Alr thanks. Is it still warrantied if it came from a pre built?

[heady turtle]

Ehh a lot of cards will have like 4 year warranties

[heady turtle]

Don't see why not

[keen nacelle]

Cool thanks

I'll have to do that when I get home

It started having issues, randomly mining its now doing 25mh/s

Idfk why

[green harness]

EVGA transferrable warranties are three years

A fresh warranty is a big advantage of buying new. Buying used can be best for someone, but it's really individual and depends on what someone wants and how price sensitive they are

[heady turtle]

Hmm, afaik my gigabyte was 4 years ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[heady turtle]

Mb start and stop it

[keen nacelle]

Wait gigabyte actually had a decent warranty? First decent thing about them

[green harness]

Yeah Gigabyte warranties are four I think. Some GPUs have one year warranties though iirc

[keen nacelle]

I tried, even tried a different miner

I turned my pc off and letting it sit while I'm at school

[heady turtle]

Hmm

[keen nacelle]

Could be drivers maybe

[green harness]

I think one of the AMD AIBs has a one year warranty 😬

[keen nacelle]

Or that the card is just dying

Hopefully not

I dont wanna go through the rma process

[heady turtle]

If you updated drivers or something you need to reapply oc btw

[keen nacelle]

Yeah ik

I updated drivers while playing valorant like a week ago

But it just started last night

Nothing unusual happened, other than a storm last night

But our power didn't go out

Maybe internet or smthn?

I'll have to try it when I get home again

Still gonna register warranty before I run outta time

[keen nacelle]

Sorry one more question about warranty, is it x amount of Years from date purchased or when registered?

[magic wing]

to register for most warranties you need to give a receipt with the bill of purchase that shows the date

[normal hawk]

https://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails?ItemList=Combo.4339721

I used to think the Vision looked good, but now i dunno

[heady turtle]

Pretty sure purchase

[heady turtle]

It looks good but the pads are bleh soo

[normal hawk]

Well i mean all the Gigabyte cards have bleh pads lol

I mean the silver just stands out too much to me.

[keen nacelle]

Does Amazon recipt from the pre built count?

[magic wing]

it should

again check with the website

but mostly for rma the prebuilt manufacturer will need to be contacted

[keen nacelle]

Oof

I don't have the build anymore lmao

Just the gpu cpu and ssd

[heady turtle]

I thought they were white...

[heady turtle]

I didn't need to upload receipt i think, just serial number and something else

[keen nacelle]

With gigabyte tho?

[heady turtle]

Ye

[keen nacelle]

Interesting. Thanks for all the help

[heady turtle]

Np

[normal hawk]

Pretty sure thats silver.

[heady turtle]

The pic looks very silver but before all i had seen was white

[normal hawk]

Looks like brushed aluminum to me

[heady turtle]

Mb i just never noticed lol

[vital oriole]

the vision looks clean

[frosty sage]

Wow

[honest hound]

I just bought one last night

[normal hawk]

Which one?

[honest hound]

3070 8gb oc

[fossil talon]

Noice

[honest hound]

Paid about $300 over msrp but i couldnt wait any longer

Stood in best buy to get one. They sold out. Never standing in line for that long again

And i got it for the visuals

[gloomy crag]

Lol

[honest hound]

Well 3080 is for sure good enough then to me the 3090 is just overkill. With performance and price

True

[lofty hill]

imagine not having a gt 1030 as a main gpu

not mining

[magic wing]

no cap

[lofty hill]

what?

[magic wing]

you cant mine profitably on a gt 1030 really

[lofty hill]

but im not using it for mining anyways

[magic wing]

yeah you dont really need to say that

[pallid coyote]

I know there's a driver that was released which will unlock 70% of its hash rate for a GPU. I'm not sure which models though

NBMiner, https://miniz.ch/2021/07/10/miniz-v18y3-is-out/

[glad galleon]

WHAT is that embed LMAO

[pallid coyote]

It's the driver that NBMiner released which raises the hashrate limit for RTX 3000 cards from 50% to 70%

[pallid coyote]

Here's a good article on it https://www.cointribune.com/en/columns/the-mining-column/nbminer-can-unlock

no I was just saying

"graphic design is my passion"

I'm just so sick of this shortage it's not funny.

[heady turtle]

Welcome to life, it ain't always fair

[twilit magnet]

How can nvidia not find a solution after a year.

It just doesn't make sense.

[glad galleon]

bruh

[heady turtle]

All the fabs are at 100%

[glad galleon]

nvidia is not responsible

[heady turtle]

They can't do anything else

[glad galleon]

it's a ton of issues

[magic wing]

Its almost like there is a semiconductor shortage and nvidia or any other company dont have magic silicon creating machines that summon silicon out of thin air

[glad galleon]

like I mean the car industry is really suffering

they use a huge amount of silicon

[heady turtle]

Ford has a load of cars waiting for chips

[glad galleon]

yea

[twilit magnet]

But how has the silicon industry not grown in response.

[heady turtle]

Fabs take years to set up

Not something you can set up in a few months

[twilit magnet]

It took 410 days to build the empire state building. How is it that hard to do.

[magic wing]

How you gonna respond to not having enough raw material

[glad galleon]

uhum

um

that is like the worst comparison you could make lol

[magic wing]

410 days for the actual construction. Not the planning or the resource gathering (assuming ur right about the 410 days part)

[heady turtle]

The equipment etc needs to be perfectly set up not just a normal building

[glad galleon]

also, a fab requires a lot more machinery and stuff

yea like pato said

[magic wing]

Also in that anology, imagine the builders got only 1 sack of cement a day. Thats it. Thats all the raw materials they had. Wouldnt it take more time?

Thats whats happening

There literally isnt enough raw material

@twilit magnet

[twilit magnet]

"Silicon makes up 25.7% of the earth's crust, by weight, and is the second most abundant element, being exceeded only by oxygen. Silicon is not found free in nature, but occurs chiefly as the oxide and as silicates. Sand, quartz, rock crystal, amethyst, agate, flint, jasper, and opal are some of the forms in which the oxide appears. Granite, hornblende, asbestos, feldspar, clay, mica, etc. are but a few of the numerous silicate minerals." - https://periodic.lanl.gov/14.shtml

[glad galleon]

LOL

mate

[twilit magnet]

I don't know how to run a mining business but it seems like stuff could be done

I won't continue arguing

I might be wrong

[glad galleon]

I don't know how to run a mining business

🥴

[magic wing]

Oh its a bad bad day to have braincells

[glad galleon]

this

[heady turtle]

Even if that wasn't the case, the very specialised tools to make the chips are all at full capacity

[keen nacelle]

The crust is 30-70km thick or smthn like that if my memory isn't failing me

[twilit magnet]

The crust is 40km deep according to national geographic.

[keen nacelle]

Everywhere I'm seeing is saying 5-70

40 is for land

I think 70 is ocean

[green harness]

I don't know how to run a fab, but I'm going to start producing 4080s. Wish me luck

[lone pond]

Is 650w enough for a 3060?

[hollow raptor]

yee

depends on power consumption of the specific card, but they on avg don't eat too much power

at least not as much as like a 3080

[vital pivot]

Who ever said that wins the day

[cosmic bluff]

well can i?

[torn bone]

I have an 850w for mine and it’s plenty. 650w should be good enough though I got the more in anticipation of getting a better card so that my wife can have my 3060. She’s rocking a 1060 right now

[timid narwhal]

yup

[heady turtle]

There is no 5700x but I'd go with a 3060 ti or above depending on what resolution etc you want to play

[heady turtle]

650w is good for up to a 3070 ti so you're all good

[keen nacelle]

3070ti? Really?

[heady turtle]

3070 ti is basically a 3070 with gddr6x so ye

Bit of higher tdp but it's aight

[livid idol]

6X on a 3070 ti doesn't really do much for it tbh

I won't be surprised if you get better scores underclocking the memory and using the extra power for the core

Good for mining eth though, if it wasn't LHR 🙃

Why waste the silicon

[heady turtle]

How is it a waste of silicon?

[keen nacelle]

40 series this soon?

There's barely anything that challenges 30 series, let alone anything that's going to be stronger

Well

[cerulean rover]

not a waste of silicon if they're just making a better die with the same wafer?

[keen nacelle]

Let me clarify

Why make new cards when the current ones are more than enough, and there's already not enough out there

[cerulean rover]

Because NVidia's move to TSMC has been in the works for years

Ampere was supposedly supposed to be on TSMC 7nm iirc

[keen nacelle]

Tsmc?

[cerulean rover]

instead of samsung 8nm

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company

big boi

makes the silicon for AMD and Apple and soon to be Intel

[keen nacelle]

Ah

[cerulean rover]

amd might still have some things still made on glofo but mostly tsmc now

[normal hawk]

Would they just be using up the rest of their 3000 series up to make the super? Or it a new method of manufacturing

[cerulean rover]

probably just same thing, but higher yield silicon with more cores unlocked

I think they were thinking about just having a more mature process with higher yields instead of changing to a less mature process with lower yields and lower production, but yea

[keen nacelle]

Have you guys heard anything about how intels gpus will perform?

[vital oriole]

The highest model supposedly performs like 3070

According to a hint Raja Koduri placed

[cerulean rover]

supposedly

[vital oriole]

Like 30x better than Iris Pro iGPU in Haswell-C?

[cerulean rover]

don't know EU count afaik

[vital oriole]

That's what he tweeted

I'm also excited to see it coming to laptops too

I do hope Intel makes another reference lappy with the new Arc

[cerulean rover]

who knows

[vital oriole]

Recently they've released 11800H+3070

Spicy specs

[keen nacelle]

That'd be crazy

[vital oriole]

I'm sure it's gonna use gddr6 only

No g6x, the hot stuff

[keen nacelle]

Then that leads the questions to costs, how the drivers will be, and how they will affect the market

And cooling yeah

Hopefully they'll also be reliable and won't break after two weeks

Though i doubt they'd release them until they had them made properly

[vital oriole]

I won't worry about quality

[keen nacelle]

Yeah intel normally makes good stuff

[vital oriole]

I'd care most about cost and driver stability

[keen nacelle]

And cooling

[vital oriole]

Here's hoping it won't have inflated price

But knowing shortages

[keen nacelle]

Yeah

[vital oriole]

It's bound to happen

[keen nacelle]

Hopefully it'll be hard to scalp

Since they're just getting back into gpus people might not want them as much

Oh also

Mining capabilities

They released a gpu that performs like a 1030 right?

Iris xe or smthn?

do i sell my Radeon VII and use my Fury X till i get a new gpu? or keep the Radeon VII and hope the market price doesnt drop on it till i can get a new card not from scalpers

[sullen panther]

Depends on your situation

If you barely game, don't use your gpu for work stuff like editing etc then I personally would

[green harness]

If Radeon VIIs are still selling for a ton it'd probably be worth selling for a new GPU unless you need it for something it's uniquely well suited for

[modern field]

i only game i dont edit or anything really

they are going for like 2k

[heady turtle]

Then get like a 3080/3080 ti/6800xt/6900xt

[green harness]

Yeah sell that thing

Some of the more expensive GPUs stay in stock, like expensive 80Ti or 90 models, so you could get something right away probably, or wait for a more affordable model to be available

prolly shouldnt leave it here for someone to register lmao

in case someone wants to be a prick

Default is 350, max is 366. I can now get 350-366 depending on workload. Originally it was largely maxing out around 330w no matter what. Many people had this issue and EVGA pushed a bios update that seems to have fixed it for everyone

you should turn on a overlay program, such as MSI Afterburner or use the nvidia experience

[vital oriole]

^

[analog badge]

i have the geforce overlay on

[rustic pulsar]

and what does it say

while in game

[analog badge]

and it says 0%

[rustic pulsar]

not in the menu, in an actual round

[analog badge]

yea

usually running on igpu it struggles on 480p

[rustic pulsar]

then yeah, i say its on integrated, are your drivers up to date?

[analog badge]

yes

[rustic pulsar]

try following this see if it does anything

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZvlxzeHph4

[analog badge]

but it is running like it is using regular gpu

[rustic pulsar]

its a fairly low performance game, should be fine on most integrated

[analog badge]

it isnt on 1440p

before i set affinity it would run at like 12 fps on igpu

[rustic pulsar]

ok

is it just the one game?

[analog badge]

i just opened hitman and the usage is like at 40% so yes

[rustic pulsar]

thats really odd, maybe its just the game

[analog badge]

probably

[rustic pulsar]

is perf fine

[vital oriole]

UHD 630 won't have a chance running any games at 1440P lol

So it's not laptop not using dgpu

[analog badge]

yes

[rustic pulsar]

then ur prolly fine

[indigo valve]

won a newegg shuffle last friday 🙂

worth!

[vale apex]

Recently I've started trying to mine with my EVGA 2060 KO ULTRA and realized my temps were like 84. I was able to overclock it to get to like 72-76 while mining by severely limiting my power and core clock. That made me realize that I never checked my temps while playing games before to realize I was getting like 84C there too. I looked into aftermarket cooling but there is essentially none for the 2060 KO. I have 5 Arctic P12's in my case right now. I don't know why it's running so hot. Any help?

[magic wing]

84C is fine

adjust fan curves if you want to make it better tho

[vale apex]

Sorry but what's fan curves?

[magic wing]

the curve that plots what the gpu fans will be running at at a given gpu temp

[vale apex]

Alright I'll try that. Do you think it could affect the GPU to be running at like 75C 24/7

[magic wing]

80C 24/7 also fine imo tbh

[vale apex]

Alright thanks!

[vale apex]

Oh wait one more question. Do you think consistently running GPU fans at high speeds can damage it after a short period of time?

[magic wing]

I mean in the end they are motors and motors can fail, not in a short amount of time tho

[vale apex]

I'm fine if it starts breaking down after a year of running super frequently but I would rather it not happen after like 3 months.

Alright yeah thanks.

[magic wing]

also the fans cost like under 20$ on ebay so it wont be a problem either way

[vale apex]

Yeah but like I said for the 2060 KO I can't find any other fans for it.

[magic wing]

you dont need the fans for ur EXACT card

[vale apex]

Oh really? I did not know that. I'm gonna go look into that then.

[vale apex]

Hey I'm trying to find the measurement for the fan of the 2060 KO online and I can't find it anywhere. Do I just have to open it up and measure it?

[magic wing]

you dont need new fans rn

urs still work

cross the bridge when you come to it

[vale apex]

Yeah your right. So I should just be checking for my fans to stop spinning or for my GPU to start overheating essentially?

[magic wing]

if they stop spinning while gpu is hot

if they dont spin on the desktop its fine

card probably has auto fan off

[vale apex]

Ok thanks!

[livid idol]

I got replacement fans for a buddy's GPU for $3 including shipping on aliexpress, they're really just dirt cheap

[white olive]

guys

can u help me to my math assignment

[magic wing]

no

[lethal pawn]

GT 620 on roblox

i really need better cooling lol

[vital oriole]

gt 620

maybe try using the igpu in that 4770k?

it's probably faster

https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/compare/Intel+HD+4600vsGeForce+GT+620vsIntel+HD+530/2451vs1429vs3281 @lethal pawn

The GT 620 gets roasted by HD 4600 iGPU in the 4700K tbh

Best to just stop using that piece of crap

[sullen panther]

Quad gt 620 sli 😎

[lethal pawn]

how to add sli to gt 620

[glad galleon]

why sli tho

[lethal pawn]

i could get a gtx 260 but my case is too slim

[vital oriole]

gtx 260

[lethal pawn]

id also need a new motherboard, and ram

[vital oriole]

ew that's ancient

[lethal pawn]

yeah its better than a gt 620 tho

[vital oriole]

rip new games but i guess

[lethal pawn]

its 3x better

[final blade]

could a laptop gpu and the cpus built in graphics work together in a sli sorta way

[sullen panther]

You don't want to use sli. It's dead

I meant it as a joke

[lethal pawn]

different game now, this is much better

[icy urchin]

If you had the opportunity to get a 3080ti Asus ROG Strix for 2k, would you buy it, or would you wait for a better deal?

[vital oriole]

eww

hell nah

max i would pay for 3080ti atm is 1.5k

[green harness]

No, waaaay too expensive

[icy urchin]

Thanks! Wasn't sure if It would be worth it. I used Stock Tracker to get an order in. But I wasn't sure how bad that price is. It seems its being sold for 2,000 on Bestbuy and Amazon.

[brave violet]

I been waiting for evga or Gigabyte 3080ti

[icy urchin]

How are the prices for those cards when they come in stock?

I am just so unsure of what to do, I don't want to wait like 2 more years to get a great card, but then again the prices are just so high.

yeah I agree with that. Its just to much money. I mean you can buy a gaming pc for that price.

[vital oriole]

You could get a prebuilt with a 3070 in 2k range lel

or less

[rustic pulsar]

max I would spend a a 3080 ti is 1450

but in todays market hehe

[icy urchin]

yeah lol I've just got to look the other way with the market right now. I'm happy with the card I have now, I just wanted to see how awesome it would be to game in 4k. But breaking the bank to do it isn't worth it.

[brave violet]

I'm waiting on the EVGA queue, newegg shuffle or BB drops. Even antonline have decent deals

[lone pond]

hello could you guys tell me what graphics card i can get for around 450$ please ?

[vital oriole]

weeeeell

look at used market tbh

or reddit, like r/hardwareswap

[brave violet]

maybe EVGA B drops for a 2060 or something. Also, what Foxy is goos idea

[vital oriole]

^

Just if

[brave violet]

Rommy you got everything =/

[lone pond]

will the prices ever drop ?

[icy urchin]

Iv'e been entering the shuffle a lot lately and it seems the prices are still way overprice.

[icy urchin]

We can only hope

[vital oriole]

it's rumored that 30 super series will come

nvidia filling skus lmao

[brave violet]

True. Still will make the market atruggle

[vital oriole]

wow

[icy urchin]

so Nvidia can make that super Cash.

[brave violet]

or put a minimum start of the price. Before it solds[reserve]

[vital oriole]

also lately

there's issues with 30 series production growing

everyone rushing production to profit outta this shortage making price go insane lol

qc doesn't check much anymore

even nvidia fe cards suffers

[brave violet]

Waiting for the market to get flooded with cards. So prices go down

[vital oriole]

bad thermal pad placement

or even missing

[icy urchin]

oh man for real, thats terrible

[cosmic bluff]

Well isnt the 4000 series predicted to be a minimum $2k usd

[brave violet]

RMA? @sterile parcel

[vital oriole]

no

2k for 4090 is stupidly inaccurate imo

[icy urchin]

iI would be in trouble if that happened to me , cause I wouldn't know the was wrong .

[brave violet]

from what manufacturer? rommy

dang

[vital oriole]

yeah

shortages

[icy urchin]

Yeah I didn't even bother to join the wait list

[brave violet]

I ask for an update 3090 =p. But how you know there were no pads?

[cosmic bluff]

Examinations

[vital oriole]

Probably insanely high vram temp

[brave violet]

Hold on. Let's see what Rommy says

[cosmic bluff]

[brave violet]

uff. I would be furious

[vital oriole]

120c

yikes

[brave violet]

that too hot 😱

cool, it worked out

[vital oriole]

120c, not f tho

[brave violet]

👍

[cosmic bluff]

Okay if it got 120°C where you lived you will cook alive quicker than a 5800x with no cooler on overclock

[brave violet]

Maybe we need a photograph 101 room. To teach people how to make pro captures. Especially for you @sterile parcel =P

[vital oriole]

very good indeed

inflated prices, trash qc

very long rma

perfect year

[brave violet]

I'm chillin at work. Gonna go out and burn alive 95F In September

[vital oriole]

amd queue is so funny

[brave violet]

Security. Nothing special

[vital oriole]

"you'll get your card soon!"
"oh we ran out, cya next time lolol"

[brave violet]

hahahahah

I'm thinking on getting a ridgewallet

Warehouse. Gonna go patrol to make sure everything is locked and such

I have a nice wallet too. Leather. But is bulky

3060? Could be more logical

[fringe cradle]

Could the 3050 ti easily run a game like Warzone (for example) with ray tracing, 4K, and all the other details?

[cosmic bluff]

Not well because with the 3050ti it gets smacked by a 1660m in most cases imo a 3050ti is just 1650m with Ray tracing and dlss

[glad galleon]

well its usualky for 1080p laptops right

[rustic pulsar]

3050 ti is basically a good 1060 that can kinda do ray tracing

[olive rapids]

when is the shortage predicted to be over

[magic wing]

maybe in 2023

[olive rapids]

wow

how am i gonna get a gpu then

[heady turtle]

[red panther]

Someone wants to trade their strix 3080 for my evga xc3 3080. He wants 300 on top. Is this fair/would you do it guys?

[olive rapids]

thanks

[keen nacelle]

Strix is expensive but it's really a side grade

If it was me I wouldn't waste the money but strix is definitely a higher end model

[red panther]

ty

[vital pivot]

@red panther register the evga card and enter the step up program. Honestly the evga warranty and customer service is worth more then a card that is 15 more FPS.

[hot folio]

Gotta love cheap GPU upgrades

[olive rapids]

ah yes cheap

[green harness]

No

Performance will be relatively similar between the Strix and the XC3

[onyx orbit]

why even trade a 3080 for a 3080

[spare relic]

pickles and pennies

[keen nacelle]

I prefer my pickles and pennies separate honestly

[spare relic]

put the pickles in the pennies

[keen nacelle]

Or make pennies out of pickles

[rustic pulsar]

pickled pennies

very yummy

[jaunty dome]

What graphics card should I pair with my i7-9700k

[keen nacelle]

Should be fine with really anything up to a 3080 @1440p, 3070ti at 1080p imo but I don't see the point of 1080p with anything over a 3070

[jaunty dome]

Alrighty thank you

[lone pond]

3090 white strix with 10700k as well

[granite wraith]

anyone know why my monitor says no signal when I boot up. the lights and fans and everything turn on

then if I hit the power button to turn it off, and then power it on again, it works

just started happening when I got my 3060. never did it before

[lone pond]

when you power it off , does it immediately turning off or takes few seconds to turn off ?

[granite wraith]

immediately

[lone pond]

then probably it not boots actually

did you overclock rams or something ?

[granite wraith]

oh ok. that's kind of what I was thinking

[lone pond]

maybe just reseat rams can help

[granite wraith]

I think I am actually overclocking yeah. because turning on xmp never works consistently

[lone pond]

try it with clock speeds

when you press power and pc turning off imediately its probably not booted couse if windows loaded it takes few seconds

[granite wraith]

yeah, it works if I go in and set the dram to 1600. so that's what I've done

but I've done that for a while, and it just started happening when I got the new gpu

[lone pond]

no it looks like ram ussie to me

[granite wraith]

it's not a huge deal, because I rarely shut down but it's weird that it's happening

[lone pond]

id say delete drivers with ddu and give it fresh install too but it looks something with rams to me idk

[granite wraith]

yeah, it could be a ram thing. it might not be happening if I wasn't overclocking

[lone pond]

oh also you can run occt test too

maybe can help to reconize ussie

[granite wraith]

I tend to blame everything on my mobo. since it's had a lot of weird issues since I got it

come to think of it, even with my old card I had problems when I got my new monitor. like when I'd reboot to go to the bios, it would say no signal until I turned off my monitor and turned it back on

then it would show up immediately

[lone pond]

yeah its kinda nice you dont have issue with your new 3060 lol

[granite wraith]

whereas with my old monitor, never had that problem

[lone pond]

getting gpu is nightmare now

[granite wraith]

hope not

[lone pond]

if gpu having black screen , usually windows actually loading on backround and when you hit power off button itm takes few second to shutdown

if mobo is on bios or bugged on boot it shuts down immediately

thats why it looks like ram issue to me

[granite wraith]

oh ok

so maybe it's whatever weirdness I have with my mobo and ram. even when I manually overclock it sometimes when I boot it up it will actually only be running at 1064mhz or whatever instead of 1600

[lone pond]

yeah it looks like its time to upgrade lol

[granite wraith]

i just got it like a year ago. it's a B550

[normal hawk]

My 5950x is idling at 37° and my 3090 is idling at 32° 😏

[granite wraith]

it's been working pretty good lately before this at least

[normal hawk]

Side panels are off though

[lone pond]

hmm did you update your bios ?

[granite wraith]

yup, I update it pretty regularly. I just did it again today actually

the description for this update just says "improve memory compatibility"

so maybe this is the one that'll fix it

[lone pond]

well rams are still sus 🤔

just download occt and run memory and power test and see if it passes

[granite wraith]

k

[normal hawk]

Duuuuddeee. I'm playing star wars Squadrons and I'm getting 300+ fps on ultra

[shrewd smelt]

[livid idol]

"Ship only" is a red flag

[shrewd smelt]

what does that mean

[livid idol]

Meaning you can potentially get scammed out of your money

[shrewd smelt]

oh ok

[vagrant patio]

yea

[livid idol]

That listing is also a month old so it probably sold, unless it's a scam

[vagrant patio]

that no way

That’s probably a scam

[pallid coyote]

More than likely a scam

You have to be careful where you buy cards from. Lots of scam artists nowadays

[sage shale]

Question: What's the difference between the xc3 black gaming and just the xc3 gaming 3070? Why does the none black one cost $20 more?

[sullen glacier]

The non black has higher boost clock and slightly higher stock speed. I believe it's a tiny bit better cooler. But nothing that can't be fixed with a overclock to the black

[sullen glacier]

Here

[heady turtle]

One has a metal backplate afaik

[sullen glacier]

Yeah and that too

[red panther]

I went this route, ty.

Last poll the audience style question for awhile, I promise:

RTX 3090 Strix vs RTX 3090 Xtreme Waterforce

Which would you get/vertical mount?

[sage shale]

Thanks a lot.

[heady turtle]

Strix, pretty sure waterforce is gigabyte and their memory pads etc are lacking, as well as iirc that card requires custom loop, even if it doesn't, falcie(mod assist here) has a aio gigabyte 3090 and it's power deprived so performs mehh

Strix is a top tier card

Although i wouldn't vert mount personally as it's quite restrictive on airflow

Also case is almost more important for a vert mount (assuming the card is air cooled)

[keen nacelle]

Yeah strix is one of the best models iirc

Just overall for 30 series

Not better than kingpin ofc but it's up there

[heady turtle]

Strix is the best air cooled card

Kingpin is aio so

[vital pivot]

To add to the comments @red panther vertical mounting a air cooled GPu depends on the case and air flow. (Spacing to the glass). If it is a open case or has 2 or more Inches to the glass I would go strix. If not then the water force.

[keen nacelle]

Wait it is? I'm just now realizing I've never seen a kingpin lmao

[vital pivot]

Hah

I have a kingpin 3090

[keen nacelle]

Tbf I've only ever had 2 gpus

A 1030 and my current gpu

[normal hawk]

Pretty

I need to practice cable management. The case didn't have a lot of space for cable management. But actually came with more vents than I thought it would.

[lavish rain]

is 590 euros a good price for a 6600xt

390 euros msrp

Somebody quickly

@heady turtle

@cerulean rover?

[cerulean rover]

no, 6600xt is like 3060 or below iirc

[lavish rain]

But is it a good price for now

@cerulean rover ?

[cerulean rover]

I wouldn't say it, but it's your choice

[lavish rain]

Well it's not for me, it's for an impatient friend who doesn't know alot about pc's

[high nimbus]

no way that's legit. a KR 3060ti has a street value way more than 550. I'd avoid.

[lavish rain]

Nvm je already bought it

[heady turtle]

No

[heady turtle]

Bit better than 3060

[cerulean rover]

meh

[heady turtle]

Highest i would go is like 480

[lavish rain]

Oh well he committed fraud he doesn't have to pay taxes so he payed 460

Any better options than the MSI mpg b550 gaming plus

For a 5600x

[heady turtle]

Gaming edge wifi? Nah solid option

[crisp ocean]

^^^

I have this motherboard it’s great

[lavish rain]

[lavish rain]

thx

[digital rune]

1660 Super or 2060ti

[lavish rain]

2060 ti

[lavish rain]

but 6600 xt is better than both of them an cheaper

[digital rune]

I don't know what's that

[digital rune]

is that belongs to amd?

[heady turtle]

There is no 2060 ti, do you mean 2060 super?

[digital rune]

2080ti*

[heady turtle]

Yes the 6600xt is an amd card, bit better than a 3060

[glad galleon]

based board

[heady turtle]

Ahh 2080 ti all the way, that's not even a question between the 2

[heady turtle]

?

[glad galleon]

Trying to be funny?

answer the freaking question

[heady turtle]

I just did

[digital rune]

1660 Super or 2080ti??

[normal hawk]

2080 ti is much better. What's the price?

[digital rune]

7500$

Great Sale!

[normal hawk]

USD? Or what currency

[digital rune]

Yes, USD

[glad galleon]

or 750?

[digital rune]

7500

[normal hawk]

Gross price

Get a 3080 ti in a bundle on newegg for like 2000

[heady turtle]

Are you trying to be funny lol? That's a 1.1k usd card scalped

Hi one of my friends is looking to buy a 3070 or similar 30 series card from best buy, anyone have any tips?

I haven’t heard of any major drops so do several gpus just trickle in here and there and if you’re lucky you can pick one up? or do you have to wait in line and reserve it

[heady turtle]

Only drops

[lone pond]

Ah

Thanks

im gettiing really pissed off that i cant get a GPU...

a year is too long...

im so tired of waiting on stock and regular prices...

I have $740 from selling my old GPUs saved up + whatever I can get for my 6600XT when the market becomes normal, prolly gonna get a 3080 or 3080 ti when I can get them for msrp

[lethal pawn]

the differrence between the cpu and gpu usage

idk if thats normal lol

[wary anvil]

What game and what CPU?

[lethal pawn]

roblox cuz i cant play much else

and an i7 4770k

[keen nacelle]

Get a better gpu or worse cpu lmao

Your dedicated gpu is worse than the integrated gpu in your cpu

Just use the integrated

[lethal pawn]

i can get one right now i can call my friend and say "send over the gpu" but my case is too small

and im a year too young to get a job

[keen nacelle]

.

[lethal pawn]

in my case integrated runs cooler

[keen nacelle]

My guy

Your gt 620

Is worse than your integrated graphics

yes

i literally know that im using it rn

Is best buy having a restock this week? My friends 2060 burst into flames lol

wait, are 3060 ti's really hard to get?

i live in australia and they're here in mass stock

also in this stock shortage, you buy any model you can

a 3060ti is still a 3060ti

It's fine doesn't need aftermarket

[magic wing]

different gpu cooler to go on ur gpu

[heady turtle]

Gddr6 doesn't get hot enough to worry about

[magic wing]

no im just saying the gpu cooler is the only different bit tbh

[silent gazelle]

i use i5-4670k cpu

[livid idol]

Looks like that "ranking" is mostly objective

[magic wing]

yeah

[heady turtle]

Ik yeah I'm letting them know

[magic wing]

pato thats the vid in question

I click link faster than mee6 delete

[heady turtle]

Stonks

[silent gazelle]

i have i5-4670k cpu and 650W psu will that be enough?

[livid idol]

I get to dig it out of the delete channel now lol

650W is plenty

[heady turtle]

The psu is enough

But you might wanna upgrade the cpu when you can

[livid idol]

550W would probably be good enough too tbh

[silent gazelle]

i'm planning to buy new PC coz mine is 2013 make

[magic wing]

pushing it too close

[spare relic]

run it on 450w

[livid idol]

200W for GPU and 84W TDP for the CPU

[spare relic]

it'll be fine

[heady turtle]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-no-angry-steve-carell-michael-scott-gif-5606969

[livid idol]

Even with overclocking, that's not likely to exceed 500W under full system stress

[heady turtle]

Although tbf you don't really want a 550w running at 500w

[livid idol]

Especially if it's a low tier one, but yeah in general the recommended load is around 80% max

But that 500W estimate is counting multiple fans, RGB, memory, etc all being used simultaneously with an overclocked CPU/GPU

The short version of that is that 650W is plenty @silent gazelle

[silent gazelle]

yep got it

🙂

[livid idol]

Even if you upgrade to a higher power processor it'll be fine

[silent gazelle]

i have plans of getting a new PC when gpu prices settle down

ryzen 9 5900x

[livid idol]

Why do you think you need a CPU with that many threads? My 5800X keeps my 3090 nice and busy with a bunch of background tasks.

[silent gazelle]

i have no idea
it's still in thoughts
i need write down a proper build 1st

[livid idol]

Ok. If you're just gaming the 5600X or 10400/11400 would be plenty of power. If you do a lot of background tasks like running RGB software, discord voice chat, streaming, 10 browser tabs with netflix running too, the 5800X is good for that. I know from experience.

[timid narwhal]

I mean... if he can, why not? id get a 5900x if I could

[livid idol]

Wasted potential and money. Yeah it's nice but not necessary.

[silent gazelle]

i do streaming, video editing, use blender for some gfx , and also play new games which i could not

[livid idol]

Ah that might change things, which editing software and are you using blender CPU or GPU workloads?

[silent gazelle]

yes this may be true, waste of money if i don't use it to full

[silent gazelle]

i use power director, i don't have gpu atm it's dead, want to use gpu load

[livid idol]

Power Director is a bit of a wild card, it might use the CPU or GPU more depending on settings. Blender with the GPU isn't going to need as much CPU power.

[silent gazelle]

ok so can you give me a build with 5800X ?

considering i will get a 30series gpu

no rgb

[livid idol]

India right?@magic wing would make a better list than me for that region

[silent gazelle]

i think i already got a build config up somewhere

[magic wing]

am in college rn

will make if needed later

[silent gazelle]

cool you from india?

[magic wing]

Yeah

[livid idol]

Ok no worries, I'm just not too familiar with what's available there right now

[silent gazelle]

cool

[magic wing]

I shall return to studying rectifiers then

bai

[silent gazelle]

c ya

[livid idol]

Looks like the website I used to use for finding parts in India took out that region, and I don't really know what retailers are available

Sorry, looks like I won't be helpful there

[silent gazelle]

where are you from?

[livid idol]

Western US

[silent gazelle]

do you get gpu's easily there?

[livid idol]

Nope, it's just as hard as everywhere else. We might get more stock here in the states, but there's a much larger number of people trying to get them.

[compact nova]

looking for some help. I recent bought a msi rtx 3070ti gaming x trio once i install it on my mobo i get a vga fault on the mobo. I have a Asus Rog Strix B550-i and a ryzen 5 5600x. what should i do to figure out if its a bad gpu? I have 2 8pins plugged into the card and their is power going to it as the lights do turn on.

[livid idol]

Try another PCI slot

[heady turtle]

Don't think there is thats an itx board

[compact nova]

i only have 1

i put a old 1060 in the slot and everything works fine

[livid idol]

Ah darn. You can try taking it out and putting it back in at least, could be a loose contact somewhere

[compact nova]

yeah ill give that a try

[frosty sage]

Rtx 6090 ti

Best card you can buy

[sage shale]

How do I buy direct from EVGA if I'm in the UK? The site lists all the prices in dollars.

[cerulean rover]

could try evga eu
https://eu.evga.com/

[silent gazelle]

Is stock available?

[heady turtle]

You can join there queue thing, that's your best bet, you'll get emailed if you get a chance to buy one afaik

[silent gazelle]

Nvm I'm from India so even if I buy there are lot of extra tax and costs for shipping

[gusty cave]

When or if are the gpu prices expected to come down?

[keen nacelle]

2023-2024 most likely

[gusty cave]

Seeshhhhh

Is their a estimated release date for the 40 series cards lol

[heady turtle]

Q3/4 of 2022

[silent gazelle]

Is 1650 super bad?

[spare relic]

no

[silent gazelle]

Probably Oct 2022

@magic wing hey you back from college?

[keen nacelle]

Depends on what you do

It can run most games currently out at low settings 60 fps minimum

Maybe all, idk cyber punks min specs or the new assassins creed

[silent gazelle]

Normal streaming or editing not heavy games

It is better that radeon r9 270x?,

[spare relic]

it is

[keen nacelle]

A lot better iirc

About 2x

[magic wing]

Ahh yep my bad I forgot

Give me the budget and Ill throw something together when I get home at 10

[heady turtle]

1650 super def better than a 270x, especially for streaming because 1650 super has nvenc encoder

[fringe cradle]

Is the 1650 better than a 3060?

[spare relic]

no

[heady turtle]

Hell no

[fringe cradle]

That’s what I thought

[spare relic]

https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/

all of your questions answered

[heady turtle]

https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/singleCompare.php

For comparison to other cards

[spare relic]

with plenty of discrepancy still
