cheaper fans would likely be more than quiet enough, up to you
junior willow
Could I sub those fans for my arctic p12s or should I leave them and get those new ones?
Ohhh ok
sweet phoenix
oh p12s are great
hoary zodiac
I wonder if it's worth getting a 80+ titanium psu for a server
sweet phoenix
technichally worse than the k12s, but not anything noticeable
hoary zodiac
Just because they're more efficient than gold/bronze
Because if it's something that runs 24/7 surely it'd be better for upkeep sakes to get a 80+ titanium

Ok, so for context a few days ago I downloaded marvel rivals. I was having an issue with loading in so I watched a guide and I got the files verified, i think in the end it was bc I downloaded on the hdd. I watched a guide and it told me to delete something bc compatibility (i forgot the name but it had monkey in it). I think thats whats causing the issue. Anyways I looked at my task manager and realized my ram was only running at 800MHz and my pc randomly turned off. Today I went into bios to turn it back to 3600MHz and now its auto repair looping

Tldr: i deleted something that I suspect might be causing this issue. My ram was running at 800MHz, I OC it to 3600MHz now its auto repair looping

You purchase a set amount of debt for a period of time and the organization involved pays you back the debt amount with interest
Or you can buy shares of an index or a fund which holds them instead

Gonna be buying a modded 3060ti soon, and I am super hyped haha

hoary zodiac
Having a 16GB 3060ti is gonna be really weird, but I am excited lol
oooo
How will that perform with AI models I wonder
because surely with that much vram it'd be a pretty good sleeper card
fair onyx
Thats why I am buying it. Now I will have 40GB VRAM to play with, which is the most I have had
fair onyx
I had 32GB before, then I went down to 24GB, and now I will be up to 40GB
fair onyx
are you sharing vram across different cards?
Yeah, 3090 and 3060ti modded, when I get it
hoary zodiac
nice
fair onyx
there are a few potential issues for if I will get the card or not, but I am on the wait list for it
hoary zodiac
honestly vram modding could be a really good hobby to get into right now
considering how RT will be mandated in games in the later years
fair onyx
I am getting the card from somebody I trust who has done this a ton, and hes gonna verify it first before I buy it of course, and it comes with a warranty
having 40GB VRAM is gonna let me do some more fun stuff
fair onyx
yeah, and get this
the whole thing, 3060ti with 16GB and the labor and shipping for $300
hoary zodiac
because there's a ton of good cards right now that's suffering the 8GB vram curse
hoary zodiac
the whole thing, 3060ti with 16GB and the labor and shipping for $300
That's honestly great considering how much vram is on there
fair onyx
Absolutely
I've been waiting for a few months for him to have one in stock, and its a good card model as well

hoary zodiac
Consider getting other gpus
ripe rose
What would you recommend? i'm prefer to stick with nvidia.
fair onyx
Having a second card with 16GB VRAM means I should be able to run awesome smaller models 24/7 for friends and family while my 3090 can still carry everything else with no down time
hoary zodiac
the RTX 4060 is abysmal in value
fair onyx
What would you recommend? i'm prefer to stick with nvidia.
a used 3060ti would be better
its faster and likely cheaper
ripe rose
where should I find used gpus? ebay?
hoary zodiac
I'd recommed the RX 6750 XT
over a new RTX 4060
but if you have to buy nvidia I'd go for the 3060ti
better price/performance
hoary zodiac
where should I find used gpus? ebay?
ebay, facebook marketplace, etc
fair onyx

alr i'll look into it
hoary zodiac
alr i'll look into it
do you have any specific reasons to prefer nvidia?
e.g. uses other than video games
these days on a gaming only use case radeons are generally better in value
the 6750XT outperforms the 4060 by a lot
3060ti less so but still a better pick than a 4060
I'd look into it
a lot of times if you don't need a specific feature set from nvidia, radeons are generally a better buy
ripe rose
do you have any specific reasons to prefer nvidia?
just familiarity tbh, i've always had nvidia gpus

the 6750XT outperforms the 4060 by a lot

what do you do on the gpu if you don't mind me asking?
only gaming?
fair onyx
If you don't play games that really need ray tracing, then I would recommend AMD GPU's for just raw raster value
ripe rose
only gaming?
mainly gaming & vms
ripe rose
do you use linux kvms or a windows hypervisor?
windows
hoary zodiac
ah
ripe rose
just mainly school stuff & projects
hoary zodiac
radeons will be just fine for those use cases
you would see quite a significant boost in performance relative to the 4060 in this case
If you don't need ray tracing, you may also be able to find a RX 5700 XT for under $200 on the used market
ripe rose
i'm looking on ebay and do they have any kind of support incase i recieve that card and it doesn't work properly, could i return it?
hoary zodiac
same with the 1080ti/titan xp (more rare)
ebay has very strong buyer protection
it's easier to get scammed as a seller
ripe rose
hmm interesting, how many days do they provide protection for?

I don't mind dlss (use it rn anyway) and I already have a 4k 240hz oled monitor, so really all I need is a card and a psu
wicked oriole
I mean it seems better than my 4080S. It's cool and great don't get me wrong, just feels a Lil slow in 4k cause I can tell my vram is absolutely capped, and I'm an hour away from a micro center, so figured I'd jump on the opportunity if I could
But then I didn't know if my MB not having pcle 5.0 would prevent the bandwidth from being met and needing a new MB

more of a reason to wait for benchmarks
