Think it will handle BF2042 at 1440p 144fps?
Tell me what you thought about it
What do you have now
Sick
also evga
I have an EVGA 1660S now
Very nice card
I am usually pretty good about being patient
I have been thinking about waiting til next year when the 4000 series is released
Guessing the performance jump will be worth it
Stick it out with the 1660s for now
Tough call
Whew
Yeah I looked up my 1660S and it has been going for $500~ on eBay
I never understand the bids sometimes. Exact same card same day sold for $550 and $250
Wat
I should check what my 3060 ti is going for
Bruh
1300
Hell I could sell my card and buy a 3070 ti for less
lmao
Yeah the prices right now are nuts
I'm so tempted
But also ebay is annoying
Could still sell for like 1150 to a miner on hws
Or just find a trade
miners are fine with insane money for lhr ngl
The resale value is the only thing making think it’s worth getting a 3070 now. I could always sell it and get a 4000 series next year
Yeah its really tempting
Do it
Only reason I'm not doing it immediately is God it's annoying, I dony feel comfortable shipping it, and I live in a state where there's like 3people and a coyote
If I had packaging for it I'd ship it
Ig I could buy an empty gpu box
Hell 3070 tis are going for less on ebay
Cause LHR
You saw the PC I was traveling with lol. Still have it and used it again.
I might just keep it the way it is. Although the 3700x gets a lil hot.
Might sell the 2070 super, buy a 5700g and use it as a multimedia box that i take with.
Can't have hard drives or SSD's in it cause of the size of the 2070 super.

All 3060 models are LHR

You might be able to use the leaked driver to get full hash rate in some cases
This is the same model, but this link below labeled LHR
They're both LHR
That's a nice price

How much is a 2070 at MSRP?
weren't 20 series cards really chneap for a tiny window because people were shedding them for 30 series cards x
I'd say just do msrp dif between like 3060 and 3070
d
Maybe with a bit extra
Bought it. It’s going to my buddy at cost
Pog
Pog
Damn
I found a guy with lhr 3060 ti, 3070, 3080, and 3080 ti
But no 3070 ti
Hes local too
Sadge

You really wouldn’t tho
At 1080p?
1080p ehh maybe but it wouldn’t be a big priority
How’s the CPU usage with your 3060ti?
I think like 90% without pbo on?
But tbf
The most demanding game that I play often rn is valorant lmao
Lmaoooo
Haven't touched warzone or cold war in a hot minute
For obvious reasons
I'd have to add money for the 3080 anyways most likely
If he's fine with a straight trade, or close, I'll go for it
I have a 75hz 1440p anyways
Continuation of my dilemma yesterday:
I made sure everything was set up for my 3070, drivers clean installed, did a whole bunch of bios stuff, did whatever i could with nvidia control panel, and armour crate, everything should've been fine but still no performance.
I plugged my 2070 back in without doing any drivers work and its already back to normal performance wise
suppose i should send my 3070 back?
@prime jolt Did you try using another PCI slot? Maybe your PSU can't handle the load of a 3070?
Would be odd with my 750w PSU
'tis
I unfortunately can't test with my other slot as well because there is no space
got a little micro atx build
true didnt consider
uff 650W is both recommended on 2070 and 3070. Not sure. Could be faulty or just bad luck
@sterile parcel Could help
honestly wish i could just full refund the combo from newegg but the gpu being out of packaging instantly voids that option
i would just save more and go for a 3080
Before you do that. Try getting the PC out[Hard work wasted] try and verify if is the card. If is the card you can do a RMA
ill test out of case both the 2070 and 3070 in that second slot quick
this will be fun
im going back to atx after this fiasco this matx case was cool a couple years ago but i cba now
well, always get a miniatx and igpu
yeah this won’t quite fit with the sata cables right there
Essentially i could use my 3090 and use a 1660 as well if i wanted to at the same time to add more of a boost or
No
Crud cause using VRAY is a bit slow but i was hoping to boost it so i might need a second 3090 then and a 1200w psu then
Yoooooooo
Anyways how long do they last in the cart
I dont get paid til next monday
Better check your time zone
So crazy story today.
I won the evga 3090 shuffle without a combo. Bought the card for my buddie.
He texted me at 7:00. He won the other evga 3090 combo shuffle.
I don’t have a graphics card😂
3060 ti non lhr and 3080 lhr, he goes " well the retail value..."
How much do 6600XTs sell for
I just got an EVGA RTX 3060 and i have dual 1440p monitors, can it support 144 on both aswell? it wont let me bump up the refresh rate but im not sure if thats drivers or the card
DP
Is it worth the extra £20 to go with the EVGA xc3 gaming 3070 over the xc3 black?
If all it is is a back plate then it doesn't seen very worth it to me.
doesnt allow above 59
You have to make a custom resolution and refresh rate for it to work
And you do so in Nvidia Control panel
it keeps flashing then failing
Imo the extra 20 is worth it because the backplate can act as a heat sink for the vram
||i didnt know where to ask this so i'm just asking here|| (3090 running stock CORE clocks [1800 base and 1980 boost] but i overclocked my MEMORY clock +500 and 5950x [running 4000mhz] DDR4-3600 at 3600 mhz and an FLCK 1800mhz )
Hey, so my pc has been experiencing an issue where it stutters for about 1-2 seconds and when it does the screen kinda freezes and the audio makes a BRRR sound(kinda like hardcore static) and then my fps just gets screwy. like, it stays really low no matter if i restart the game or go to a new game. i have to restart my pc completely and it would usually fix the issue. i have no idea what is causing it. it just happens completely randomly such as me just browsing google or even playing a game like valorant/CSGO/planetside 2. the stuttering just attacks out of nowhere.
now, after it stutters, i check afterburner and HWiNFO64 it shows random CPU cores spiking really hard and nothing too crazy on my gpu.
things i've tried: updating bios and ALL of my drivers (i had to learn how to do it manually with DriverEasy). I ran my Norton and downloaded and ran Malwarebytes and got nothing. I also reinstalled windows to see if there were any messed up files.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what i can do? maybe i'll try downclocking my cpu and see how that works. my rig is only a month or so old and i really hope nothing is messed up :(
also, if you need any more info please let me know
Have you a manual overclock? As you said 4000mhz on the cpu?
Update bios
Also do you have xmp enabled or did you just type 3600mhz into the memory frequency
i have xmp enabled and i let the asus UEFI auto oc my system
o
Don't, it sucks, either use precision boost overdrive or run it at stock, it's actually doing worse for your system than stock
reinstall windows and install all the drivers manually imo
alright i'll undo the oc and i'll see how that goes
@grizzled slate also General fix for random windows problems
From an admin command prompt or powershell, run:
sfc /scannow
If that doesn't work, try:
dism /online /cleanup-image /checkhealth
dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
Then, try running sfc again.
Repeat as necessary
also DOCP is just xmp but for ryzen right?
Just for asus boards but ye
the ones you need are
chipset
gpu
wifi/ethernet
audio
Automated version of this if you want btw
Ehhh look at size diff lmao
couldnt be me
1 kb
will do now :)
189b vs 1.75kb lol
sometimes smaller is better😳
But no need to right click and open as admin on mine
nerd
Big size diff smh
Its 1.75kb.... if you cant download a 1.75kb file you wouldnt be on discord since the app and website take far more data to load
Ik lol im just messing
nerd
asus bios bruh
i went to fix my fan curves and i forgot you have to push apply EVERY time you change it
cring!
imo gigabyte best
I mean
thats kinda a no brainer
you have to apply each one before you move to the next :(
and if you dont it resets it
:(
asus software🤢
armory crate go brrrrr
patos or mine
🤝
so it found and fixed some corrupt files
but i'm a little slow and forgot where the info about it was stored
🙂
also
That's fine you don't needa worry bout where the info was stored
oh epic
also, i'm gonna run some benches and stress tests and see if its okay now lmao
as long as it fixes ur good
yup👍
i'll do that right now
rog strix x570-e
theres the official download page
grab only that
dont get these 3 files
just unzip the folder and run the app right?
wait
thats a stupid question
nevermind lmao
yeah just drag and drop the exe somewhere
Nah ive heard far worse on here
ur fine
dw about it
Is $750 a good deal for a 3060 TI my 1080 just crapped out so I need to upgrade and best buy has been sold out for weeks
Thanks
its not terrible, a lot cheaper than scalped but you should be able to find a 3070/3070 ti for that price or get it a bit cheaper but if you need a gpu its not to bad tbh
Reason: Bad word usage
Yesterday was GPU day for me @heady turtle
I won the shuffle. Bought the 3090 for a friend. Then that friend won the shuffle and he bought the 3090 combo for a friend. And today I noticed I had gotten a evga Que notification for a 3080ti
lol
Lmao
I missed the purchase deadline
I could request a reinsert for the Que.
But nah. I’ve spent way to much this past month
lol
Lol
You can reply to the queue email and they will still allow you to buy, if you really wanted to
I think I'm good on GPU's.
Unless i see a good deal on a smaller GPU for my mobile PC. But i might just go to an APU for that 😅
The 2070 super blocks the HDD bays.
My friend is lowkey having issues to find a buyer for his 3060ti FTW3 Ultra off EVGA queue lmao
trying to help him
and no we dont ship worldwide, this is local
more than half a year in, less demand for 30 series in my area
No selling or trading in this discord
yeah ik
just ranting atm
its so long since this queue spot started, such a waste if we dont claim it
"having issues to find a buyer" aka trying to scalp it lmao
wouldn't have any issues selling it at msrp
i can guarantee that
It's hard to get a 30 series card where I am but it's really easy to get a PS5 with extras at msrp
it is what is is, i mean different demand
Oh we are
Just low demand now
Lolno
This is also against rules
yea that was said so no one DMs annoying messages
I don't see that but okey ;-;
ye mb, should of gave more context
everytime i mention gpus on hold, I get at least 3-8 DMs
again im just ranting
Ima be honest
Sounds like you're looking for buyers and excusing it by saying you're just ranting
No, there was always gpus just hard to find and fe cards are the only way of getting your msrp pipe dream
EVGA XC3 models sometimes exist too
Got my 3080 Ti for below MSRP before shipping and tax
that’s nice temps
Yeah it's not really pushing much power right now
160, stock PL is like 350 isn't it?
Something like that
It frickin 1440p rn
Must not be a GPU demanding game, or something odd is happening because it's not pulling much power
Star citizen
Is that GPU demanding? I don't even know
Hover in 30% range with 5800 at 50
you're probably cpu bottlenecked by the resolution
a 3090 is way overkill for 1440p gaming
idc what game it is lol
Me clock is like 5001 MHz rn
That's not really true at all
Mem *
ok lol
Gpu clock is at 1500
I'm GPU limited a fair amount of the time on a 3080 Ti, which is just about a 3090
This doesn’t seem right
At 1440p and higher you tend to be GPU limited atm (depends on the exact game/workload ofc)
it's like running a game at 1080p on a 1080ti and wondering why it's not using your gpu that much
if it's only drawing 160w with a 3090, i'd say 99% chance you're cpu limited at that point
i wouldnt really ruin 1440p with a 1080ti, but maybe thats just me
i prefer ultra and high fps
when you're talking about, for instance, 144fps, a lot of game engines are struggling to keep up with the cpu load at that point
Not in my experience. As I said, my 3080Ti is limiting me far more often than the CPU
What is normal memory clock for a 3090
Well Metro Exodus Enhanced for example. I upgraded from a 3080 to a 3080 Ti and saw a performance increase - so my cpu (5600x) was not my limit
I saw a performance increase in just about everything I play that isn't either quite old, or not GPU demanding at all.
At 1440p you're more often gpu-bound
in any case, all i was saying is a 3090 only running at 160w isn't the bottleneck
Sure. It's not pulling all the power it can, so clearly something odd is going on or it's bound by something else
yeah exactly
I did point out the power draw right away btw
Hey yall
maybe my statement is false regarding 1440p gaming and 3080ti/3090
Do you think an rtx 2060 OC is worth $400?
(only had 3080ti for a week)
eh, that's not the worst value right now but I'd hope you could get like a 3060 for that much
Yeah but real msrp lol
The price for the 3080 Ti XC3 was like $1,163 😆
Yeah I agree but honestly the only way to get a 3060 at msrp rn is through the shuffle
So idk
wasn't nvidias msrp found to be like extremely skimpy for their partners? like, they were skimping on their cards just to be able to offer anything near msrp
or if someone's already in an evga queue and close to the front of the line
What? Noo
Yeah, EVGA MSRP of $1,199, minus the associate code discount
Total cost of like $1,250 after shipping and tax
Depends how badly you want a gpu right now I suppose
I'm running currently on a 960
That's with an associate code that's not fair lol
Well anyone buying from evga should use one for every purpose imo (unless they're an associate, which relatively few people should be imo)
Also that's a 3080 ti, the real pipe dream is 400$ 3060 ti
Yeah even EVGA isn't selling 3060 Tis for $400 anymore
Maybe I could just buy it to resell it
Lollll
They're going for like $600 on average rn
wayy more lol
keep in mind ebay takes a big fee, plus you have to ship it
unless you resell it locally
also then you scalped someone so you should feel bad lol
😂💀
Like 800 on eBay lol
Capitalism

Ight well if a 2060 is selling for 800 on ebay..
I might snag this one for 400
Heh
i had the opportunity to get a 3080 ti ftw3 from evga queue and passed it up cuz i was waiting on hydrocopper version lol
no they are not
sold items is what you look at for prices
not current listings
Yeah more about $550 on ebay rn
Ohh thought you meant 3060
Just wb the ftw3 lol
i thought about that, but i don't wanna deal with keeping the stock cooler for years and taking it apart for rma's
already got the hydrocopper one tho 😛
10 year warranty and i can just pull it out of my pc and ship it back without doing anything lol
Welp full send I guess 
Rmas aren't common lol
yeah i know but i like reassurance
if i have no issues within 10 years, the $60 will have been worth it for that alone lol
also, wasn't there some big issues with early batches of 3080ti/3090 cards attributed to a soldering issue? yeah, not worth dealing with lol
i mean to be fair a game shouldn't be able to break your hardware, so evga or nvidia has to be partly to blame
asus is great
Evga and Amazon are at fault imo
ye sounds about right
Do you know if it's got a thicker cooler than the Asus Dual, or is it the same thing but fancier?
6700xt 6800xt or 6900xt from xfx
The 6800xt. Could go with a 6900xt though.
Although i think their 6800xt is one of the more expensive ones
im still chillin with a intel 4000
i wish i had money
my condolences
is there anyone else with a intel 4000?
yikes
Yup
That's a meh price
I mean i have the 5700xt tho
even with 100% its only 45c then
on air?
Reason: Bad word usage
Yup
Im tempted:p
I could sell my 3060 ti for nearly as much to a miner
But also
3600 things
Well 6900xt if it fits the budget ofc
Are both of these LHR? How can I tell? Customer service pointed me to this discord??
The 3060 definitely is, the 3060 ti like 95% chance it is, no new cards are lhr anymore and that build the 3060 ti model varies
Nvidia requires them to have a different sku for lhr models and it has to say somewhere in the listing
If it's a prebuilt like that, you're pretty much guaranteed a lhr card
Find one with AMD graphics if you want to mine too
AMD 6000 series isn’t as good at mining
My 6800xt only gets a hashrate of around 60mh/s
At what power usage though?
Yeah lhr is about amd perf mining anyway
The issue with lhr is that it still uses the same amount of power for the reduced hash rate
Even a 3080 lhr is better than a 6800xt tho
I’m at stock power
Anyway NBMiner (I think) found a way to unlock 70% of mining perf on LHR cards
I should start mining.
Should I buy a 6600xt for 550$
nah
If you're desperate
is the GPU market still fucked?
Bot broke

it doesn't filter anything that has anything added kek
do we have a chance to recover with the next gpu series, or will it be sold out in under 10 seconds again
same could happen with next gen
who knows when this virus will stop
cause next gen is for 2022
Language #rules
🤷♂️
it only picks up words with space after otherwise it would censer words that have the string of letters in it but nothing to do with the bad thing
No swearing ;-;
you dont know
2022 q4 is the absolute minimum, been established for a while
exactly, an estimate, not settled on anything
i don’t get why people answer that question with something like that
it's impossible to be settled on anything lmao
retailers dont even know
It's a pretty damm good estimate tho
Q4 2022 is extremely likely
As rtx 4000 will be coming out among other things
duh, so how are some people trying to cater to some clueless person who’s so eager to buy a gpu gonna help anymore??
just tell them straight up, no one knows
based on what
what has to happen EXACTLY for it to magically restore the gpu stock EXACTLY in Q4 of 2022
please tell me, educate me on this
Not magically restock with okay prices at all, it will start improving around then
Q4 is not exact, it's a three month window
Have you been watching the supply chain at all?
Technically it already exists 
anyone know where to pick up a 3080ti?
Look at pins
How so? Like engineering samples kek
The RTX 4000 Quadro
Ohh right well i mean rtx 4000 geforce
Reason: Bad word usage
We used to not really know, but things are clearing up nicely. It's perfectly reasonable to give a quarter estimate at this point
I wonder how much an engineering sample would go for before the actual lineup got released
A lot
I can imagine that there’s a lot of legal trouble involved with selling one
There is
Those things are under strict NDA
On a side note, there are probably already some very rough samples circulating around
Oh It’s just an NDA?
Technically the person couldn’t really get arrested or anything like that
Worst that could happen is getting sued
Not saying thats a good outcome
I think it could be classified as stolen property
An NDA technically is a civil contract iirc
And fired
Nda can extend to more than just not talking bout afaik ye
Unless it involves company secrets then it falls under EEA
and that could sporadically change at any moment, just because it’s “clearing up” (as he mentioned below), doesn’t show you the year and quarter frame of when availability for all will improve 💀
who says it’ll stay consistent from going on forward anyway?
yea, but 2022 q4 is still pretty exact
it’s not like you’re mentioning half a year or a full year
That's why its a guess...
3 months isn’t that long tbh
No one knows 100%
that’s my point bro
i don’t wanna give people false hope for that🤷♂️
it’s just something i wouldn’t mess with and give an answer too
I'll put it this way, this sort of supply chain has orders in the pipeline for a year or more in advance
Question 3060 or 1660 super
3060
Between supply chain stabilization, decrease in demand, and increase in supply things are clearing up
For what price though
I don’t have the time to build pc and I don’t wanna wait a year for a gpu so I was just gonna buy a prebuilt
Your confusion might be coming from the fact that you seem to think we're saying that availability will only improve when we hit Q4 2022
I mean id build one if I can get my hands on like a 3060ti
Availability will almost certainly be continuously improving from this point forward and should reach relatively normal levels by Q4 2022
3060
Are you in the us?
Yah
What's your budget?
Around 1400
Reason: Bad word usage
just bought a rog strix 3090 for below msrp
$2500 bucks on ebay
it was $2600 on newegg shuffle
it seems to be sealed and everything
is the corsair waterblock good for it?
Is that really below msrp?
If you're assuming that newegg shuffle has msrp that's wrong
trying to track down a 3080ti. any leads?
Well, how much money do you have and what country are you in?
If you're in the US and have $1700 you could get this 6900XT right now
https://www.newegg.com/asrock-radeon-rx-6900-xt-rx6900xt-ocf-16g/p/N82E16814930057
Or this one for $1650 https://www.newegg.com/sapphire-radeon-rx-6900-xt-11308-01-20g/p/N82E16814202395
https://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails?ItemList=Combo.4351339
Here's a 3080 ti 🤣
NO
Don't do it
Save your money
Nuh. Those kinda chips taste bad
I should get a VR headset
I don't want the quest though cause facebook
Gah wegg, why must you make it so hard to search bundles! There's no "in stock" filter 😫
Yea lol
Search GPU and select sold by Newegg and sort by highest price.
That doesn't show bundles
Ok well then there's no bundles in stock according to my search
Pretty sure they limit one per person
Damn
Why 2
Well guess I gotta show up during 2 drops
CAD
I was getting very close to maxing out the 24Gb of vram in a single 3090
Crazy
Maybe you want to look at the RTX A6000 instead, about the same price as 2x 3090s right now
With 48GB mem
Not if he gets FE 3090's from Bb
I was considering it but it’s slightly more expensive and I don’t really need ECC VRAM
Yeah but realistically what's the odds of that
Somewhat small
And mixing 3090 brands makes it so the connector could be shifted and nvlink bridge won't fit
About $5k
5000$
Not terrible
Alec if i spot any 3090 combos on wegg I'll send em your way. Might be able to get 2 of the same one that way.
Also I’m looking at the 3090s because it’ll be easier to get a water block for them
I think
For the use case usually noise isn't a factor
I’m planning to custom loop so might as well throw the GPU in also
Ah
There's blocks for the 6000s btw https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-pro-gpu-wb-rtx-6000-ni-inox
I think most of the pre waterblocked 3090's don't have adequate cooling for the vram on the back of the card
At least I've heard that's the case for the Aorus Waterforce. Both the AIO one and the Custom Loop one.
It’s gigabyte it makes sense
Reason: Bad word usage
Bykski has one for A6000
It’s thermal pads are 💩
Oh it does?
This full coverage block directly cools the video cards core (GPU), graphics memory (RAM), and voltage regulator modules (VRM). By directly cooling these components you can achieve great temperatures along with the ability to reach higher overclocks or extend the overall lifespan of your card by running at below factor
So if you plan on getting a 3rd party waterblock would it be better to just get the Ventus 🤣 it usually manages to stay in stock longer?
Because it’s ventus 
Well i set up my PC's then went on vacation with my old PC
Same rommy
Same rommy
Last time you did was in May
I'd like to say the trade was a joke
I'm sure it was, it's general after all and a bad trade offer to boot lol
Ye lol
I have 13 mee6 warnings I think
Not too bad for how long you've been here
I have exactly one warning for duplicate text
Stupid links
How many times have I gotten warned? I think I might’ve deleted some mee6 dms
9 times
Oh only 9 times?
I guess those other 4 I counted are either different servers or glitches
LMAO
Here's a question for the ages: How does discord have a 🐃 but not a donkey?
There’s a reason why I usually tend to stay out of general
Those links can be killer for your rep 😉
What links?
Last time I remember something getting heated was back in July when someone brought up politics and LGBTQ stuff
And something else about Poland as a country and some people got pissed off
I was trying so hard not to get involved because it most likely would involve me getting banned
Feel free to yell at people breaking rules or just being jerks, and tag mods when you do
There's been times where I've had to dip out of a convo before ban hammers dropped too, like when we first made the #846508336543301653 channel
Let me guess, “y’all are taking our GPUs”
Lol
crypto channel 
That was part of it but they guy was just trashing everyone that's ever thought of mining and being a huge hypocrite in the process
all the minors are taking our gpus
How surprising
I swear some of the people in this hobby are some of the chillest people I’ve met but some are also some of the childish people I’ve met
They always try to jab at miners
Easy scape goat
The last thing they got to say after arguing with 2 mods was along the lines of "don't make a channel with geopolitical implications if you don't want to discuss politics"
They think miners bad
Oh now that just made my day
Cause miners are easy to blame
Not even helped that Linus one time literally chanted "f you miners"
Like... dude it's easy to avoid the politics, you just don't talk about it
^
Gotta love talking about burning down churches in #general-chat
The youtubers also worsens situation for miners
Then there’s also TikTok
They make people think bad of em lmao
Doing what now
Yeah that’s what sparked off that argument back in July
Some guy was saying it’s good that a couple people in Poland are burning down churches
Ah ok I wasn't sure if you meant recently
Even there was a poll in yt asking "What's the reason of gpu shortages?"
Of course the highest voted answer was miners
I feel like those people know the implications of placing that blame 
Second is everyone wanting a gpu
I only don’t really like TikTok for 2 reasons. Misinformation and the hyping of certain PC Parts that jacks the prices of them up
The least is gamers
which makes it worse
I've seen some youtube polls asking people's opinions on why there's a shortage, and only after that showed like 40% of people blame miners and 15% blame a combo of issues, then they started being totally anti-miner
cough cough 3600
Miners are mostly people that already uses their gpu for smth else
But wants to get spare cash in time they're not using it

That was another poll I saw that had to be taken down because of the flame war, it was like "how many GPUs are you mining with" and it got so bad youtube mods took it down
It's an easy scapegoat to blame
time spent having fun is time well spent :)
i guess people were so mad cause of that poll
I told someone I’m mining with my 6800xt and he got so pissed off because of it
Is the LTT gamer gauntlet still a thing?
haha
Not recently no
That's good
I think EVGA caught on that people were mad that they were in the queue for a year only to see huge pallets given away
Speaking of EVGA queues id laugh so hard if the email comes that it’s my turn for a 3080 in like middle of next year
this reminds me of
Yeah you have to have your ticket in more than one basket to have any chance at all right now
ownership of a car in eastern europe during the fun community time 
why'd they
Not like them getting butt hurt will make you give it to them or something, you won it fairly
want a 3070 after 3080ti?
oh
lmao
"hey you upgraded so i gotta buy it"
it's their logic i guess
ah
Can't wait on the queue
It's kinda easy to get through the different queues as well, just look for the newer models and enter those, they'll have smaller wait times. I saw one queue that had 4 people in it for a product launched 2 weeks prior.
What queues are those? None of the EVGA ones are that sparsely populated
I don't remember which it was exactly but I know it wasn't EVGA
My biggest issue with the EVGA queue is the site dies anytime there's a release, so it's basically RNG.whether you get a decent time or not
It may have been a B&H queue but not 100% sure
My 3080 xc3's cooler was pretty disappointing, even for a 2 slot cooler
those using dsr on 3090 what are your setings?
Sorry, went to sleep. Thermals were decent enough with an aggressive fan curve. I did slap a hybrid kit on it though
heh
yea that’s just giving false hope, which to me is worse
but i guess… idk
You can feel that way but the way you were phrasing it was extremely rude for no reason
Atleast from what I saw yesterday
Can I play games at 1440p with a RTX 3060?
Yeah but it might struggle at some details and some games
3060 ti/6700xt and up would be optimal
Depends on games, what settings you want, and what fps you want
If you expect max settings 144fps with cod that's not gonna happen
oh my fault
sorry about that

To much, unless you're pretty desperate

100$ more then it should be right?
Reason: Bad word usage
Supposed to be around 400
Gotcha ill pass. Just got excited to have it in my cart at best buy lol
Fair, 450-500 is pretty acceptable tho but 550 too much imo
Depends who makes them, I've never been to a MC so idk if they make them or what
My experience with a pre built was AWFUL
ABS on newegg is pretty well rated
There's multiple ryzen 5a
3600, 3600, 3600xt, 5600x, 1600, 2600, 2600x, and more
That seems like a decent price, as long as the brand is good. Also check what the motherboard is
Cheap and good do not go together
alienware?
Not really but abs is usually better priced than micro center, what's your budget for pc?
Reason: Bad word usage
Or if you trust open box
Little bit cheaper. Better Mobo and CPU
any
1k-2k
Can get a 3070ti build for that, 3080 maybe depending on sales
Rip
Hmm i couldnt see those when i was searching for them weird
is abs good?
Yes
ye
ok
ABS makes the best pre-builts at the moment
gonna change my name to Pato(I wouldn't recommend if it wasn't good) lol
gamers nexus did a vid on them if youre interested
np
Not for pre builts really
It was a 11700k and a 3060ti so yeah kinda bad pricing at $1600
Nope they must have deleted link
Ohh
I did
Lol
Didnt want bad pricing there but it was what i was able to see unlike what pato posted and i didnt see those builds on my viewing list
Hell, even 1080p it's good enough for a 3090 (though the hell would anyone run 1080p with a 3090)
In my defense i had this monitor when i had a 1660
:p
But mainly 3090 helps with vr on quest 2 max res 120hz
Imagine not gaming in 4K
cries in unemployed
My first four job applications got denied
I gotta put more in
Quest 2 max res is around 5k by 2k i forgot the exact res
Yeah it’s obviously 10k

I lowkey want a vr headset but idk how much I'd use it
I'd play the hell outta tarkov and super hot
Other than that idk
I saw a cv1 for 100$ and was tempted
Wait no tarkov
And quest 2 has better resolution than a valve index
Your pc can run quest 2 just fine with link
I cant think of it
Onward?
Can ya describe the game?
Pavlov?
Yeah thats it
Yeah i have pavlov and its fun
Oh also blade and sorcery I think its called
You should get a quest 2 best value for a standalone headset and yes that available as well
Idk, maybe sometime later but I just can't justify the money with how little I think I'd use it
Also no room in my room lol
I'd have to play in my brothers room from his laptop most likely
You can play sitting down with the power of play space mover
I use it on some occasions only because of my height and roof
My room is 6'8" and im 6'4"
F
My rooms tall enough but iirc it's 12ft x 14ft
With an extended twin, a pretty big desk, night stand, and dresser
may i move in... Lol jk
I have two quests a quest 1 and quest 2
Jeez
Bought both a day after launch
Oh fun
Yeah, applied to four places
Even the one my brother works at
Sadly all denied
Gonna apply to Homegoods and subway later
Just keep applying and persistence is what helps you land the job
If you have a Home Depot apply for lot attendant they offer great pay and benefits
Yeah sadly I can't drive yet, though I did get a permit
Nearest home depot is like 15min away and a highway in-between
Don't wanna make my parents drive an hour a day to get me there
Oof
(And back)
I started as a lot attendant 2 yrs ago and after 1 year i went from $10/hr to $14/hr
Now if i go back and work night shift i can make $16/hr sitting on forklift again
About to go through a dead zone so messages will be slow
Not bad
Basically dead zone anyways
Yeah
Hard work though
Redid an entire apartment in 1.5months
Replaced two walls even

Helped my friend build their PC. 10700k, 32gbs ram, And because they haven't managed to get a GPU. I tossed in my 1050 Ti 😅 lol
not bad for placeholder
Could definitely be worse
Much better than their R7 240 or whatever it was that they had in their old PC.
What would be a good replacement for a gts 250
Lol really?
dad gave me his old computer saying the graphics card is "really good"
whats the cpu?
guy wants gpu
I’m thinking of selling my 2080ti (asus rog strix 2080 ti) and getting a 3080. I bought it for $1200 and I’ve only had it for a year so, it shouldn’t be too hard to sell. I have seen many different prices for the 2080ti. What’s the going rate/ average selling price of a used 2080ti?
buy first sell second

about a grand
Reason: Bad word usage
You are not getting away with selling a 2080ti for 1.2k
I’ve seen around the 900 mark
I'll give you my lego flash drive and a twist tie we'll call it even
Sry fell asleep. I have a i5 9600k
Oh nice
Reason: Bad word usage
Wow, very interesting. So used is around 2x/2.2x less than current market price (around $900-$1k). I thought demand was higher. Well, it looks like I am keeping it, lol.
There are few micro centers in Texas and all gpus are sold out
Noo way, 2080 ti is 3070 with more vram so no way they were selling for hundreds less
2080 tis from what I've seen have been around the 1k-1.25k
That's like the price of scalped 3060 tho lol
I saw one for 800 but shipped russia lol
Damm 800 is a steal for 2nd hand atm
Really I’ve seen em a lot lower
Maybe my FBM is diff
Damm
Well i can't compare fb marketplace cuz completely diff country but not what I'm seeing from ebay

Do you think I will be able to snag a 3060 ti for around 490ish in the next month?
It's not impossible but it's very hard
