if you go with the 4000d you could get artic p12s

#

pretty sure it supports top mount but dont quote me on that

hasty sphinx Feb 28, 2022, 3:24 AM

Ok. I because I believe the 4kd only supports up to 240 on the top

visual timber Feb 28, 2022, 3:26 AM

#

keen nacelle Feb 28, 2022, 3:26 AM

#

the gpu in this parts list

visual timber Feb 28, 2022, 3:27 AM

#

isn't that the gpu that i sent you

keen nacelle Feb 28, 2022, 3:27 AM

#

oh wait

#

sorry i misread what it was

#

i thought it was a 6800xt

#

my bad

#

yeah thats fine

visual timber Feb 28, 2022, 3:28 AM

#

ok and will it fit in that case with a liquid cooling system? @keen nacelle

keen nacelle Feb 28, 2022, 3:28 AM

#

depends on the case

#

also depends what you mean

#

do you mean an aio for a cpu?

visual timber Feb 28, 2022, 3:30 AM

#

idk what that means tbh i just saw some people having problems with there gpu's not fitting in there case so i just wanted to know if that graphics card will fit in the "Phanteks Eclipse P500A D-RGB ATX Mid Tower Case" with a 3 fan liquid cooling system @keen nacelle

keen nacelle Feb 28, 2022, 3:31 AM

i believe it will

#

could wait for someone else to confirm

visual timber Feb 28, 2022, 3:32 AM

#

ok thanks

#

but if the price for the gpu goes back up to $1600 is it still worth it

keen nacelle Feb 28, 2022, 3:33 AM

#

nah

#

then get 6900xt oc formula

visual timber Feb 28, 2022, 3:33 AM

#

aren't they the same price

keen nacelle Feb 28, 2022, 3:33 AM

its a better model

its the best model 6900xt

visual timber Feb 28, 2022, 3:34 AM

well its original price is $1700 is that worth it

keen nacelle Feb 28, 2022, 3:34 AM

Would ultrawide be taken into account on Timespy? Or does it always try to do the same "Resolution"? Why would I lose a lot of performance on the same set up between 2 benchmarks with no thermal throttling?

Hey, I’ve been having a problem with crashing on my GTX 1650, ever since my power supply’s cooling became damaged it sometimes just stops, and only shows one frame until the power is off. Does not show the shutting down screen.

They would try to do the same resolution. Although ultrawide might mean there's extra calculations since different aspect ratio, but iirc time spy is always rendered at 2560x1440 and TSE always 3840x2160

Somewhat sounds like your PSU's protection is just popping to shut the PC off to protect yourself if the PSU has become damaged..?

shadow sleet Feb 28, 2022, 4:19 AM

#

Maybe, I’m getting a new case so that I can move fans around and put one back in my psu.

#

thank you tho

#

I have an absolute dinosaur PC with a 275W power supply so you really never know with this old piece of junk. I put the 1650 in cause I got it for free so I’m not even sure my PSU is strong enough for the card.

cerulean rover Feb 28, 2022, 4:21 AM

#

uh, I would not open up the psu or re-use it at all if its being questioned

#

would rather spend like 60$ on a good replacement psu than risk having to do that

it’s what I’m gonna do.

You can actually die if u touch something ur not supposed to in the psu

BitFenix Formula 80 Plus Gold Standard ATX PSU 750W BF-750G, BP-FM750ULAG-7R

but since it is standard ATX, might not fit in old proprietary case and all

shadow sleet Feb 28, 2022, 4:26 AM

#

thank you, my new case is coming tommorow anyway so it should fit just fine in a mid tower.

cerulean rover Feb 28, 2022, 4:26 AM

#

Hopefully your mobo is standard too

#

Some boards are wacky with proprietary power connectors

shadow sleet Feb 28, 2022, 4:28 AM

#

No mine is alright I think, me and my friends tried to jam a atx setup and into an itx setup that had the wrong motherboard, I learnt a lot and know that my intel mobo, yes, intel. Does have regular connectors

#

u probably won’t know half the names on this list of specs cause it’s such a dinosaur but I’ll drop em.

intel q75 express (mobo)

cerulean rover Feb 28, 2022, 4:31 AM

Should be standard

#

although I think q75 express should use standard 24pin but product images makes it look like its not the case

#

3470 is not that old

keen nacelle Mar 1, 2022, 1:44 AM

brisk flame Mar 1, 2022, 1:44 AM

so the 6400 basically competes with those

keen nacelle Mar 1, 2022, 1:44 AM

If they make it a pcie powered version of the 6500xt, sure

brisk flame Mar 1, 2022, 1:45 AM

there will be cards only powered by the slot for sure

keen nacelle Mar 1, 2022, 1:45 AM

if you had a 2200w psu

for any piece of consumer hardware for the forseeable future

because no one is gonna do that

Honestly these days. A good case will keep it cool enough as long as it's a 3 fan. Priority will always be CPU. Cause those just keep getting way hotter imo.

With all yalls help i think we've got it figured out, however now I can't decide on the 4000d or the p400a

Does the p400a support a 360mm AIO? I thought it didn't. And that was the reason to go 4000d airflow. Or was it that you can have a 360mm and a 280mm in it 🤔 not sure.

green harness Mar 4, 2022, 4:23 AM

I would prioritize GPU thermals when choosing a case and just make sure you have a decent cooler if you're running anything r5/i5

Ah well yeah it's bad value msrp wise but sometimes cheaper than 3070 these days so

Would it be better to just bite the bullet and get a 1080 ti or go for a 980 ti which I can find for way cheaper

As low as $120-$150

dusky mesa Saying it was a bad value, even in a bundle and all that

all nvidia cards are bad value these days, the important thing is that you are the proud owner of a 30 series card, gratz man 😄

#

maybe someday the cards will return to msrp 🙂

For the most part the 980 ti is a pretty good price on eBay

#

There are some guys on there pricing then way higher that the rest like in the $300-$400 range but most are pretty ok

normal hawk Mar 7, 2022, 5:22 PM

People keep saying prices are falling and that's just cause there's enough stock where it's no longer profitable to scalp right?

Cause Asus as an example raised their prices on a few GPU's lmao. So it's more of scalper and AIB prices equalized.

#

Nvidia GPUs of course. AMD's are falling for the most part^

This all depends on how you define MSRP. Each AIB sets an MSRP for each of their SKUs
