vram is harder to detect if stable
because vram will auto correct errors with software
but that slows it down
nvm it's 8,000 with +1,000
so 16,000
this 3070 ti is weird
is weird, haha
It's because the 3070+ is so power intensive
that you need just empty space with heat pipes
to blow as much air through as possible to cool it
that's how much power these things pull
that space is so that it can just flood the heat pipes with as much air as possible
Ti is way more power than non Ti, and not likely gotta hit the Ti vram speeds
no it's 6x. Funny being almost 10 GHz. That's the biggest difference. I'd big the non-Ti for sure.
oh I thought you meant 1080ti I was so confused on that speed
I'm getting close
1200 seems stable
so 8200/9500 rn
not too bad for the 3070
so jmy core clock dropped from 2130 to 2055 with this memory OC
the card literally doesn't have enough power budget to push it this high on both
should I stick to +200 core clock or +1000 memory
3070 ti is g6x
Ahh yeah
my core clock is downclocking due to my memory overclock
12.5% extra power is not enough
I assume there's no way for me to raise it over 112.5%
so should I stick with +110/125 core +1000 memory or +205 core +400 memory
Only a bios change, but I don't recommend it. and that 2nd setting is probably better. Need to run TimeSpy at each setting to really see what sort of change it might be giving.
oh that's smarter
duh
drunk tulip can't think
obviously use benchmark to determine which
Nothing wrong with bios change
As long as connectors are same there will be no difference
Basically all cards have dual bios now too
Not as simple as a mobo bios update, but I haven't changed a Vbios in a while.
Simpler actually
You do it in Windows soo
Last thing I used was NVFlash inside windows. Still something similar?
Exactly the same
so I kept tweaking and found the optimal settings for power usage
this pretty good for a 3070?
idk timespy scores very well
I found out I get 0 power throttling at 150 core 1000 memory
I think 150 core 1000 memory probably better than 200 core 400 memory
WTF
for ref my 1080 best at +120 core was 8410 gfx score. You're quite above the "average" for that cpu+gpu so that's good.
stock 3070ti score is 14800...
Ehhh i was able to get mine to 15300
In the past it's common for a gpu w/ OC to nearly match the tier above it.
I did that on a +0% power limit
My cpu isn't even running at full potential
it was hitting 94C under timespy load
I could probably hit 5.1/4.0 but I don't have to cooling potential
bequeit's lga 1700 bracket is so bad
dark rock 4 literally can't cool the cpu
Mighty close to thermal throttling that cpu
I'm stuck at 1.255 volts
yeah Ik
I literally can't go over 1.255 volts on it
I locked it to the turbo speed (4.9) and did a 100mhz + lock on the ecore (3.8)
dark rock 4 can cool a 9900k really well
but the bequiet 1700 bracket is too tall
tightening it down a lot to make contact literally made it so that I went from thermal throttling to 94C
someone told me the washer trick might work, I may try it
or I may just throw out my dark rock 4 and buy a liquid freezer ii 360mm
I'm a little scared though
my last AIO exploded after 3 days of use and Corsair only offered replace of the AIO even though whole build got fried
Their customer service is so bad
OH shoot
apparently even at 4k it went above the 144hz refresh rate
it warned me the score is lower than it should be
Do what it said and disable the max frame rate in the NV CP, then: (480FPS is actually the max RTSS lets me input) 
@quartz gull make sure you have the performance settings on performance in the driver settings
Does that reset it I swap GPU?
I had that set with 2060
All my other settings kept so I think that one still active
I'll check after timespy is done
Don't think so, if you didn't DDU tho, I'd try it
It was same driver version so I didn't see much point
If I'm already set to Max power limit will setting the power setting in NCP make it higher?
Ncp?
nvidia control panel
no change in score removing gsync LOL
I think I'm settling on +150/1000 as my final OC
maximum performance wasn't set, I'll try running it with that to see if it makes any difference
So stock timespy for my card is 13700, the xc3 version of 3070ti on stock is 14800. I'm really close to 3070ti
Makes me feel better about the vard
Core clock definitely pulling it's weight though
It's just more assurance gpu won't randomly go to a lower clock state for no reason
2080mhz off and on for timespy
Only reason it would is something more intensive than timespy
Furmark still removes my core OC entirely LOL
Furmark drops it to 1860
So below the OC EVGA has on it even
I think that's reference boost
Nah 1770 is boost
Furmark is mostly about max heat and/or wattage. It's an old program
Weird it maxes out at 1860 then
Does any card run at the stock 1770 boost?
That seems so low
FE doesn't, even cheaper XC3 doesn't
Maybe ventus 3x? We all know how those things run
OMG
Google the ventus 3x boost clock
For the 3070
It's below reference
It's 1725 OMG
Stock boost would probably be like if gpu was at 85C or something, or lowered Power Limit. My stock boost was 1850ish but I always see 1950+
The boost clock for the 3x ventus is no cap 1725
Default max temp for Nvidia desktop is 83°C btw
It's been that way for ages
@heady turtle within 1% for prefer maximum performance for power setting. I think raising power limits overrode that
Yeah but anything over around 70C or do & sometimes clock adjusts itself, unless temp limit is jacked up. Idk though, my gpu never goes above 70C
. Instead of 120pL, I went to 116 pL & a tiny +60 oc for lower average voltage.
So it's weird
Changing max temp in afterburner affects that rate
So it's either X%(Max temp) or (Max temp) - X for clock reduction
Would be interesting to set the temp limit super low & see what the core does throughout a TimeSpy run.
Afterburner doesn't let me set it below 72 for my card
And that automatically drops the power limit to 80%
Which will affect the core way more
With no OC max load it's 75C at 70% fanspin
I could easily bump up fan speed but afterburner like "no, 80% take it or leave it"
Hmm possibly
Being 300 points off of a 3070ti makes me happier than it should tbh
good gpus for 300-400 aud
6500xt sucks hard
Try get something like a rtx 3050 - should be releasing today in about 45 mins
Or a gtx 980 ti/1070 used
i saw a ton of bad reviews but it doesnt look bad for price
Yeah it's terrible for the price
Cheapest I see is $309 for an RTX 3050
Especially if you don't have a pcie gen 4 system, then it's terrible
^the $309 is in stock
I don't think I saw a single one at msrp thou
Well that's early they're not supposed to drop for another 40 mine
depends if they ship to aus or not
There will be local, shipping from us will cost you and arm and a leg in shipping and import tax
Used
Used or second hand only
do they still sell 1080tis?
Used only
Going for the xc3 pato
Is xc3 2x8pin or 3?
Outta curiosity
Actually wait
I can go for both fe and xc3 using separate tabs, just have to do it in an odd way with mobile
I just realized this is gpu chat
Not general
Im smart
XC3 what?
3080
Nothing dropped yet
Yep
Todays shuffle is a wash haha
on sale for US$475 here in sunny South Africa
WHY IS IT MARKED DOWNNN
Bacca i told you which 3080's were 3 pin. You'll need to find a flagship model.
Whats better a 1070ti or a 5600xt
Just do that and go to compare
Seriously it wanted a capital c to work ;-;
Gg rip Canadian pricing
Nvm Newegg somehow has the cheaper deal
$329 CAD for the EVGA XC 3050
4 cards are 249 in the shuffle
Kinda cancer lol
The sites not working
It wont let me add a second gpu to compare
Fun fact the Strix 3050 legit costs almost the same as my 3060tis
Strix was and will always be god awfully priced
Strix tax smh
I got an evga Ftw3 3060 ti for 529 lol
I have 3 3060ti EVGA XCs for around $620 CAD each
I didn't remember if xc3 was in the list
Kinda funny lol when a 3050 costs more
Only FTW3 iirc
Working fine for me probs just needed to reload
Those are the 4 that cost 249$
Ikr I was surprised
But lol yes the Phoenix card
I think of those the ZOTAC one is the best actually tbf
I really like the eagle design tbh
Potentially, the other cooling solutions look extremely cut down
The only one that might have better cooling is the Eagle.
It looks very clean
Zotac seemed to slap on a 3060 shroud
Eagle probably best one there
Depending on the thickness of the heatsink
Yep
The phoenix 
Still wish there was a pcie powered version of the 3050
sponsor by RT's power sucking abilities
It would be very very limited then
The 3050 ti doesn't have a lot of room to exist now in a good way. It'll be 12gbs and will be basically the same as the 2060 12gb lol
Lemme check
Thought it was 90w
75w limit would be like a 15% perf loss, 30 series is power hungry
Uses much more power than it needs
130w
3080 on 90% pl loses 5% perf
💀
Wtf
Really?
Yeah
Such a waste of wattage
Maybe intel will make a 75w card
Seems like a very intel thing to do
They tend to cater to everyone
Well
To a certain extent anyways
If they catered to everyone 12100 would have 2 e cores
LMAO FACTS
It's funny that it isnt
Because then they could atleast make a slight excuse for the terrible performance
Idk what's a better meme, 6500XT literally being a trash card or 3050 being one of the worse priced cards for a budget line
6500xt should be 1030 msrp
$250 for a 3050 isnt bad tho
3050 should be 200$ msrp with the highest aib being 400
Yeah I'm talking about the more "expensive" 3050s
Yeah but the strix isnt even worth it
Ikr
Its just a blinged out version
Phoenix is 😎
Its like the trident royal of gpus
Theres no reason why you need a triple fan cooler for a 3050
I already know colorful is gonna make a quad fan 3050
They always add unnecessary fans
Quad fans but <90mm
Imagine doing that
It would have to have a chonk heatsink
We should get an 8 fan 3050
Taking off a Eagle cooler then slapping on cheap AliExpress heatsinks and resell for 2-3x more as a "unique passive cool card"
That's going to be a noisy card lol
I actually wonder how the cooling on a card like that would be
Maybe not 8
But say on a 3090, 3 intakes bottom 3 outtakes top
Single fan radeon cards “Amateurs”
Or blower cards

My hdd is the loudest part of my build lmao
This bad boi right here ramps up so high I can hear everything
My friend bought the single fan 6500xt and he says its fan sounds like a air raid siren
LMAO WHY DID THEY BUY A 6500XT
Sad...
He’s probably so mad now that the 3050 is out
Yea
Certainly
If i win shuffle I'll buy a 3050, just cause i can.
Lmao
And then give it to me 👉👈
Uh
3050 Phoenix for the win
Ngl if I get a 3050, yk I'm going to overclock it to shreds
Nice little space heater
You jest but I'd actually buy the 3050
Won't heat up my room more than the 5800x does
It's only purpose
Wtf
3050 Phoenix is $500 in Canada
Ew
Probably from before scalper times
Ah
Will there be founder 3050
Nope
Read above
or did it end e.e I know I entered earlier than usual
Nah its still going. just under 2 hours left
:/
Wait not for me tho
Result coming out 12pm to 6pm
1hr and a half for new egg shuffle, didnt end yet
they had just started it early
I am still running on an old 660 😦
Marketing shenanigans
Woah
https://www.amazon.com/GIGABYTE-AORUS-15G-Anti-Glare-XC-8US2430SH/dp/B08V8BXZ6D/ 1329$ for a Mobile 3070? 0.0 is that a good price?
I have my eyes on a refurbished 3060 laptop for 800$
As for a new 3070 laptop, I think that's about the normal price
Where
What
When
How
Ebay
for the 1329 price you have to look at the used price from amazon warehouse deals
3070 laptops are not 1300$ normally lol
For low end ones yeah but that one isn't exactly low end
This one starts at like 2000$
If I wasn't saving for the Steam Deck I'd buy it. I'll pass it on to my brother
That's the one I have my eyes on
He wants a laptop to take to work.
Only reason I haven't
Is again, battery life
I need smthn that lasts the whole day of school
One of these years, maybe I can actually afford a new card...
Car?
Oh
You mean gpu
Yes
No
Original Xbox One doesn't go for much these days, anyway.
Hearts overrated tbh
Well, I could do that. Not really using mine anyway.
What gpu do you want
I am looking at either a 1060 or a 2060. I don't need anything super fancy.
Get 3050
Best budget card atm
"Budget"
Yes
Easy to get one in the shuffle
They are basically gonna have way more stock of them
The what?
Maybe I can do that. The problem for me right now is that everything is so old on my current machine, I basically need to get all new parts. So I also need to look at a new mobo, cpu, and ram. Might as well toss in a new case and water cooling for the cpu while I am at it.
That’s a oof
What are the specs
Exactly. I am probably going to get the case pretty soon, at least. then maybe the water cooler. The rest will have to be bought in a short time frame, probably.
What’s the specs of your current pc
What cpu are you getting that you need an aio?
Guessing by what you've said, your budget is probably pretty tight
So why not get a 12400f and hyper 212 instead?
I forget when amd started ddr4, does that use ddr4 or 3?
It has been a long time since I put this together. Got it built just before GPU prices skyrocketed.
What's your budget for a new build?
Not sure, honestly. I am not looking to build anything too soon. Trying to save up to move. I would prefer to spread out the purchases if possible. So probably start with a decent case and go from there. Going to keep as much of my current stuff as possible, but that is probably only the HDDs, Blu Ray, and a couple of the expansion cards.
The cpu is ddr3, btw
Well the issue with buying spread out is if something is broken you won't know till its too late to have them send s new one
Chances aren't super high but it's still a possibility
What you could do is buy parts thst you can use in your current system/can't be broken
Heatsink, case, gpu can work with your system just won't be utilized well
I know, but that is why I want to at least get the case and probably the water cooler first, since those would be the more obviously faulty parts.
Power supply
I have a good psu
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/sMxQzf I put this together if you want to take a look
Could also look into used
10400f/b560 used is an option too
Could also get a smaller ssd for boot
And use your hdd otherwise
I have a 256 SSD for booting already, and my psu is a Corsair AX850
Alr, one sec
So this list would cost you under $500 including tax, and you could use your 660 with it till you can get a better gpu
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/pMQ9Tn
Took out the ssd and psu
The amount of budget gamers buying 6500XT GPUs on low end systems scares me
"Oh there's a $280 GPU in stock on Newegg, perfect for my 4 year old build that happens to have PCIE 3.0"
6500 xt is a pcie 4.0 only anything being used 3.0 or back is silly
Any other point myte as well get a 6600
I keep forgetting about the parts picker site. Let me put together something I am looking at, see what it comes to total. I will post here once I finish it up.
Buying a 6500xt is silly*
Vetroo v5 has lga 1700 bracket iirc
Case looks a tad oven like too
since you have to buy a new mobo, i'd go 12th gen intel
I am partial to AMD
don't let brand loyalty blind you.
Just never been a fan of Intel, honestly.
Amd is bad pricing at the moment
12600k beats 5800x and it costs 300$
12400f beats 5600x and it costs 180$
I'd suggest either waiting for next gen ryzen or going for intel
Because it's just a waste of money atm
Yeah and also if going 12th gen Intel, stick to ddr4
Asus still has issues on Z690
And that aio isn't good for the price, liquid freezer ii 280 is better and around the same price
Are there any reasons that you prefer amd?
I can wait on the next gen Ryzen, I am not planning on buying this tomorrow or anything.
I have been building with AMD for a couple decades now, and never had any issues with them. They just seem to run better than Intel in my experience.
If you do end up building it sooner you could probably find a used 5800x around 320$
My dad has the opposite opinion of amd
First pc he made was mostly amd and it crapped out on him shortly after building
Point is, performance is performance
One nor the other is better
If you're gonna spend 1.8k do this
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/kP4v6r
Currently having the intel vs amd debate
It's sad how common it is here, we need a pin or smthn
Copy pasta maybe
Fair enough. Honestly, that build I posted was just thrown together out of parts and companies I like and know about. I really haven't done any real comparisons or anything on recent parts. If the case is good, I can at least start with that, and then start comparing things ro find the best parts that work together and will work with that case.
Placebo then, 
I was weary of going amd for my first pc about a year ago
So I understand what it's like
Now I'm awaiting amds laptop cpus to buy a laptop lmao
So let's focus on something that seems good to me. Is the case a good one, in your opinion? Or should I take that to the cases-and-psu channel?
Everything in that list is 
I would never recommend a bad part
My one that is, meshify 2xl is fine but way too pricey
Pato yk anything about Bluetooth earbuds?
Not much
Want moonsparks but really don't feel like spending 90$ on earbuds
Tired of buying cheap and having to buy a new pair in 6 months
Idek what I just typed
Ask in peripherals for reccs under 60$ or something then
My current case is the Antec Five Hundred, so probably time for an upgrade on that.
Well if your upgrading a pc, throw your current parts into a pc part picker list and I'll have a look at it and lemme know your budget
Or maybe it is the Nine Hundred? I am confused right now. Looking at pictures, it looks like the Nine Hundred.
They have storage already
As well as a something ax850 psu?
I forget what you said it was darth
Corsair
So this is, I believe, my current build, minus a couple HDDs and the disc drives.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Fk2Nnt
Any thoughts on my current build?
I know it is old (no need to tell me that), but thoughts and ideas on where to go next?
Gtx 660
Prolly cpu/mobo/ram upgrade first
Is a little old now, but fine if you're playing 2014 or older games tbh
Preferably with a case so you don't have to build twice
Right, that is why I was going to probably get a case first, then look at getting the cpu/mobo/ram.
Well with those four parts your pc can already be up and running, since you can use your 660 till you get a better gpu
And your psu/storage is being used anyways
The 660 beats a 1030 anyways, I wouldn't even pair a 1030 with that cpu tbh
Equivelant of a 4th gen i3
Is the gpu better than the current igpus?
.
Yes
1030 beats most igpus other than 5000 series apus
660 is about 50% better than 1030
Nice!
Which I'm confused how that fits in considering 970=1050 ti
I have 2x backup gtx 550 ti
I'm assuming those are not relevant anymore?
I ran an SLI setup for a while
Nvidia should make a 3030 for the memes
Or create a GT 1010
Why not a 1010, 2020, and a 3030?
Since they restarted production of the 1050 Ti and 2060 they should yea
GT 2020 covid edition
Perfect
how much?
kingpin? or FTW3
why's it 2k? Thought it was closer to msrp
For sure
For sure ye
https://www.newegg.com/msi-geforce-rtx-3090-rtx-3090-ventus-3x-24g-oc/p/N82E16814137596 You could have bought this @sterile parcel
Ye
Or what about this 3080 ti? 😛 https://www.newegg.com/zotac-geforce-rtx-3080-ti-zt-a30810b-10p/p/N82E16814500527
6500xt is the new 1030
oh you were including tax. that price ain't bad
it had your tax bracket, didn't see anything else
6% sales tax is pretty nice
I always cringe when I see places with 10-15% sales tax. its crazy. I thought the 7.25% was bad. and then I saw what people in washington paid lol
and then on top of that. Grocery items and clothes aren't taxed here in MN. so I barely pay that 7.25% 😂 since I don't buy anything but food, clothes and tech.
hehe 5% for me

Don't go to the EU then
LMAO
oof.
That Healthcare tho 
And social security services
imagine going broke for almost dying #cantrelate
Still hella expensive to live in the EU though
not really
depends on what you're comparing
really? everywhere?
Like of course living in Berlin is going to be more expensive than the middle of nowhere midwest
I'm talking more about Germany, Austria, etc
On Average people in the UK have more income to spend cause they don't have insurance companies gouging them for everything they have.
If you look at our tax rates+health insurance and then their tax rates which includes health insurance they pay far less
Florida is a backwards state
Literally
Lol
Zero taxes ~ hard to fund government plans
Also creates a money laundering bubble
Pretty much a seasaw effect
Trueeee
NA lacks transit infrastructure
NA needs public transport
well, some Canadian cities are fine afaik, but most of NA
haven't happened
Public transportation should be 100% socialized
land too expensive
Idiot government regulations
It doesn't even have to be inter-city transport
Is what happens
just a good subway network or bus network would be great
Trams, LRTs, and BRT infrastructure helps alot
Everywhere but the US has neat train systems
I wanna move to Iceland or somethin
Amtrak lol
Us has Amtrak
Amtrak ain't neat
Amtrak is starting to pick back up, but in the previous few years, amtrak been pretty dead
Your forgetting South America
Ok
I'm fine with that
Well, ignoring places where trains are not feasible
Most people don't want trains through a mountain
NYC transit is aging as well
or a jungle
Snowpiercer 😂
I’d rather drive than take a train
NYC transport is probably one of the better city transport systems in the US, but it is showing its age
Absolutely agreed
It's going to take billions more to complete that new subway line
And more to revitalize it
The problem with the US for public transport is just cars, cars everywhere, everyone cars
Metro in la is pretty good
NA is built for cars
But does it get everywhere
Esacly
True
Metro in the Twin Cities is pretty good too. but they need to invest more into it.
The reason America can’t have a good transit system is because of government regulations
Light Rail and Buses.
False
Yep
Its because americans are so damn individualistic and think everyone should have a car
I study transportation and my mom works for the company that works on almost every public transportation project in the country
I’m rural America
You definitely need a car
Theres no regulation that is preventing them from investing more into buses in the cities. they choose not to
The legislature gets to choose
This is a fun video with one case study

I'm not an urban planner, so you might ask, why do I run a YouTube channel about urban planning and walkable cities? It all comes down to a life of travel, and a terrible walk in the suburbs of Houston.

I love this channel
yea they're fun
Texas in general is bad at transit and bike friendly roads
America has a good bus system though
That looks like fun watch
Well maybe Austin is better
It is a good watch
Not from what I've heard
BIG OIL AND BIG CARS
I have experience
The legislature voting "no" isn't due to state legislation in the cities. its due to city legislature thinking it shouldn't be a priority.
I was in Houston once, can agree with the video
But again LA still tops at the worse driving experience
Not good anywhere else
You have experience of outside of the us?
No
I've never had a reason to use buses in any US cities, the network is just not extensive enough imo
Then you don't have experience lol
On long distance
Sad
That's actually awful
Im used to three transit systems in Canada, busses despite being delayed are at most behind by 30mins
the buses on base in Iraq were more reliable than most city buses in the US and they were free to use lol
Still not as good as Europe but a bit better than the US
That's a new perspective
How’s this psu
didn't even see this video, pretty recent, but this is basically in a nutshell of what is wrong with city planning in NA lol

Heck yeah much grats
did you play New World
Which 3050 did you win
oof
The base evga RTX 3050
Yeah those are a joke. I managed@to get a PS5 from Walmart without the fluff
Kinda shocked that of the 4 249$ 3050's the EVGA's is like the worst one situationally.
And if you put in the OCx firmware you save $100
Eagle will definitely have the best cooling. Phoenix fan is the smallest for those tiny form factor builds. and Zotac just exists lol.
EVGA's XC3 heatsink for the 3050 is so small.
I'm sure he appreciates it greatly
Same selling a 6500xt for 180 tomorrow to my friend
How much is your time worth
1 bag of cornuts
In person vs ebay makes it easier can sell without that 15% tax from eBay plus the waiting time. So in person you can usually save a few hundred bucks vs scalped
imagine studying
neeerrddd
ooo nice
congrats
then you'll be making the big bucks
Exactly everyone wins. I just get nervouse meeting up for expensive parts still sketched the day a computer guy wants to strongarm me xD
No one local wants to trade for my 3080 😦
I always meet up at Walmart or the mall and then their like "I'm in the parking lot" and my heart always starts to race like is today the day I have loose it xD
I'd trade you a laptop if you where local for a 3080. That's how I got my last 3090
eh laptop.
The computer community should be the least sketchy trade out there next to selling Christmas trees lol I just live in a crazy area it's been a rough few years
I am a fool though can't believe I sold the the 3090 for 1800 should've done 2200 🤯 going to be kicking myself for a week or so
wanted a 6900XT or 3080 ti cause its Full Hash Rate.
would have accepted certain 6800 XT models too as a last effort 😂 like the Strix hybrid 6800 XT
I keep hoping to catch a best buy restock on higher end rtx cards just never seems to be the right time.
The 6800 cards and up are pretty great to
WHY CAN PEOPLE TURN RIGHT ON A RED LIGHT
Murica
I've had to slap a few hoods of cars that barely stopped in time or stopped in the crosswalk
Jeez
That's when I pretend to stumble in the crosswalk so I can inconvenience them as much as possible
I'm sensing a "but"
its one that I'm iffy on lol.
Wanted the phoenix fan cause size, or eagle cause I'm a gigabyte shill
WHY IS THERE MINIMUM SIZE FOR A CAR PARK?!?

More just mad at how stupid it be
now should I buy it or should I get the 750W SFX PSU so I can put the 3080 in my ITX Build, trade the 3060 ti for money and my brothers 2060 phoenix fan
He is talking about Heston in particular
Ohh i thought he meant minimum sizes of the whole car park i was like wtf it should be a minimum of 1 lol kek
Afaik that's just allowed in the US without a signs that specifies otherwise, and also slip lanes that are sad for pedestrians
This makes no sense
You'll see some intersections with like "no turn on red"
The 100 years ago vs now architecture is also hard core DEPRESSING
Otherwise, people just do it
My brain herz
Nope
You don't go anywhere on red
You sit your pretty ass and wait
It's a US /possibly NA thing
I like not having to worry about being hit while crossing the road when it's my turn to crossssss
Bruh
Murica moment
So is rtx 3050 good for an upgrade from a rx 580?
Was a 1660 super a good upgrade from a rx 580?
1660 super is roughly a rtx 3050
No
I got msrp
I mean, 3050 does have 8gb of vram, however choked it is
The rtx 3050 has the same amount of vram as the rtx 3070 
Not worth upgrading i agree but 3050 is probably like 15% better
Nah without the features 3050 is 1660 super/ti
not worth the upgrade still imo due to price
I mean if they sell the 580 they can probably get all of it right now if they act quickly
cause mining
No one would do that local trade
Mining isn't as good anymore?
Get the 3050 in the shuffle, sell the 580 to a miner.
I got mine in shuffle
both me and my dad checked all 10 rtx 3050 in shuffle
eastern time, so not gonna know till 9:00 but still
Ye if you think you could sell your 580 8gb quick it'd be worth upgrading since it'll be for free if you sell it before the crypto market crashes harder
True
But the 3050 isn’t for me since I got a 2080 ti. I got it for my friend since his birthday is this week
Yes

The nVidia Tesla K80 is an absolute beast. 4,992 CUDA Cores, 24GB GDDR5 Memory... if on there were a way to play games with it.
Oh wait! THERE IS!
But first... What am ...
@runic crypt watch that
so is it not meant to be a main gpu?
What’s a Tesla card?
😂
yeah figured it wouldnt work
I would look for used cards or a 3050 ti over a tesla
are you in the US?
Why wasn’t the 3050 released on Amazon?
Dont know
yeah i’m waiting for it
I entered for all of them and didn't win lol
I literally have done 46 shuffles now and not a single win
I was smart to buy my scalped 3070, I have terrible luck with msrp stuff
I've entered hundreds and this is my 8th win
I also got a PS5 like 3 weeks after signing up for their direct queue
and best buy 6 times
Oh I got a series s on my second day of trying
literally the second day after it was released
those were easy to get
2 Series S's no issue
I also got 2 halo edition series x consoles
and 1 ps5 XD
consoles are easy to get
Also if intel has stock I'm buying 10 of their 75 watt cards 
I need a 75 watt card every 2-3 weeks rn
and the used market even though it's good
I'm buying my entire regions stock of 75 watt cards
Flipping optiplex builds rn is just incredible
I bought 14 of these 6th gen i7 machines from this buisness that was updating to windows 11 machines for $130 each
only 8GB of ram and a 250GB SSD in them, but the ram was single channel and the sticks were $20-30 each on ebay so
just do that
slap a 75 watt card in there
sell it as an esports rig for $400
evil
no no
this is why you don't get gpu's for msrp
not evil people pay for it
Newegg knows your evil intentions
How is preventing these poor optiplexes from being ewaste evil
I also gave 2 of them as presents LOL
oh i've been doing this since before the pandemic
5+ years
just it looks a lot worse now
all those CLX gaming builds on newegg are yours?
LOL
3rd gen I5, GT 1030 for 600$
I'm watching you -.-
I'm talking like 4790/6700+1050ti for $400-500
GT 1030 builds usually are like $300 or so
not a 3090ti? weak
3090 is outdated now
they're competent machines
And I'm not one of those calling them high end machines
I clearly list what games it'll run at what settings I am not trying to scam people
also
Nvidia recently revealed their brand new RTX 3090 Ti, it is a monster of GPU, but what's very interesting is that they talked very little about it. they only gave us some specs and didn't talk about the TDP or most importantly The Price, that's why I'm totally convinced that the Price of this GPU will be over 5 grand when it comes out and scalpe...
This still makes me giggle
the 10 seconds to decide is the most accurate
I saw a few people that did
Ahh
I'm sure they didn't put the full stock into one day. There will be more chances.
You're on the council, but we are not granting you the rank of master.
you need two 3090's
4gb 
ignore that
ignore the x4 link too
ignore the lack of video encode and decode too
and ignore that the last gen card is often faster in games
it's the best gpu that exists
Also ignore that it's literally a laptop apu stripped and slapped onto a desktop card. It's totally better than the RX 580.
Also ignore its going up in price as the last $269 ones sell out

x file music plays
What were the AIB's thinking smh
I'm hoping that these scalpers aren't actually selling them
I'm selling one for 180 hoping tomorrow the guy shows up
Any suggestions for a 4 pin connector on a gpu being stuck? I'm about to try needle nose pliers
Oh under, I was trying around it
Ok I'll try that
ITS-
IT'S WORKING

YESSSS
Was so worried I'd knock a transistor, tear it or scratch the pcb
Thank you!
Anytime glad you got it :) and yeah it sold out so quick xD
There might be more in the shuffle tomorrow
yeah maybe
No it’s worse
no 😦
But it’s better for those on a budget
Better if 2060 isn't similar price*
It will never be
yeah
Only like a 10-20fps difference depending on the game
but its the truth
for AT LEAST 1 more year
Too good to be true
Also new seller smh
nah def real
honestly it could be someone who just wants people to bid but i doubt it
Looks like there was barely any RTX 3050 restocks.
I mean, they won't restock on the first day
Once it sells through, they'll be waiting for stock
^

ok so i got a gtx 770 founders edition about 4-5 months ago on ebay. Card seems ok despite its age. fast forward to about 1 1/2 weeks ago, now in windows some slight graphics glitches occur and games will crash with or without an error and if it does have an error its always something to do with device hung and/or device removed and in macOS randomly the screen just starts spazzing and constant graphics glitches everywhere for a couple minutes until it settles down for a while
^im assuming this is because the card is on its last legs but just wanted to get a confirmation
Sounds like it. Once it does die you can try the oven trick to reflow the solder, might get a bit more life out of it.
yea
figured
mostly a stop gap purchase to wait out the price surge but might have to start looking into buying again
Is 1650 super better than the 1080?
1080 is unbeatable
wat
1080Ti
it's pretty beatable especially by newer generation cards
or this
50/50 for me
I am content that it takes a 3060 to beat this. People expect too much out of a xx50 card. I'm not expecting to buy a BNIB gpu in 2022, maybe a 20 series when those aren't also so much above orig msrp.
I got a 3060Ti in my new prebuilt so I could sell my old parts
Since ya know, 3060Ti can beat a good majority of cards
3060 ti is a good card 👍
Agreed
Beats 3090
Yeah no
Nah, 3060 ti +240fps over 3090
On what
I'm joking my guy
