[mortal grail]

At least it's a zotac ig but that's oof

[gilded kraken]

I dono what Im gonna do with this PSU but I got one I guess

[proud jackal]

a loto f 5080

no 5090

[craggy shoal]

Yeah this is a perfect start. Throw Proxmox on that and get to learning. You also don't need that cooler

[pseudo patrol]

gg

wheres the damn 5070's

i havent seen a single one

[sage sluice]

i swear i had to scroll to find something that wasnt corsair vengeance ram lmao

[craggy shoal]

Bro asking for a GPU that isn't released yet

[gilded kraken]

dont launch till next month

[reef grove]

Microcenter only showing 5080s

[sage sluice]

does it come with a reasonable stock cooler?

[pseudo patrol]

o

[sage sluice]

pref wouldnt be noisy lol

[pseudo patrol]

ima wait for those

lol

[fossil nest]

How do y'all even see 50 series on newegg?

[reef grove]

What’s a good price for a 5080?

[fossil nest]

All it shows me is 40 series

[reef grove]

Microcenter has one for just under 1k

[full remnant]

Did anyone get an Asus TUF 5090?

[fringe sequoia]

There's one on Amazon rn for $5500 lmao

https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-Military-Grade-Components-Protective-axial-tech/dp/B0DTPG3B1N

Not sure why the link says that

[pseudo patrol]

100k gpu

[reef grove]

What’s the difference that justifies $350 price difference? Honest question.

[fringe sequoia]

Brand name

[gilded kraken]

WOW I was confirmed and then they canceled my order

[sage sluice]

greed

[paper verge]

Whats the 500 diff between rog cards and MSI ones

[mortal grail]

Nothing.

[mortal grail]

Nothing. In fact it's worse

[reef grove]

Well that’s wild

[paper verge]

But it looks better

Lol

[mortal grail]

Ah well there you go

You got sold on that

Lol

[paper verge]

I'm not justifying just saying its really good looking

[mortal grail]

Underneath the msi ones are better

[paper verge]

Would pay an extra 10$ for that fs

[sage sluice]

is this the worst gpu series launch ever?

[mortal grail]

Stock wise I think so

[paper verge]

Most overrated it seems like aswell

[prisma mountain]

It's not like the 5000 series is some massive leap either

[sage sluice]

the hardware is what people buy gpus for

and the 5090 hardly brings much of that

[reef grove]

Best looking gpu imo

LOOKING

[sage sluice]

looks good, cant wait to not buy it

[prisma mountain]

welp, I've got everything to build my new computer except a graphics card. Time to buy a 7900 and maybe swap it out when 5090 does come in stock

[paper verge]

I wish Intel didn't spend soo much time with their earlier cards on design and focused money and time on drivers

[craggy turret]

when is newegg releasing 50 series aaahh

[sage sluice]

im writing my name in there, nothing will change

[full remnant]

Did anyone see anything come in stock? I never even saw them pop up?!

[reef grove]

That’s why I’m waiting till next launch. Not at all because I’m poor

[fading fulcrum]

i dont think they ever came up in stock

[pseudo patrol]

already sold out haha

wtf is this quantity

[pseudo patrol]

even the ps5 didnt sell out this fast

[mortal grail]

That's so disgusting

[fading fulcrum]

if I wanted a 5080 I would have stayed in line at microcenter lol

[full remnant]

the 5080s were available... I saw them

[rancid juniper]

Freaking cringe yo

[full remnant]

but not the 5090s

[proud jackal]

[rancid juniper]

Anybody who buys this is actually stupid I'm sorry

[pseudo patrol]

gg scalpers

[mortal grail]

100 less than a 4090 for hardly a 4090

Lmao

[craggy turret]

i dont think they started selling the 5090s yet...

[rancid juniper]

Bro be thinking that someone would actually get it is wild

[pliant berry]

I would love to know who is paying for this

[gilded kraken]

newegg did me dirty. Got the confirm and they voided my order

[reef grove]

Don’t talk about Theo like that

[pseudo patrol]

I cant wait to see the reviews lol

[proud jackal]

[pseudo patrol]

Theo winning a 5090 from a giveaway

[rancid juniper]

☠️

[pseudo patrol]

ez win

[mortal grail]

@proud jackal i can preorder a 5090

Lmao do you want it pay me 5500 aud (The msrp)

[reef grove]

Once you win that many giveaways Nvidia just starts sending you them at launch

[mortal grail]

Theo

I'm actually series

Serious

[proud jackal]

NAH IM GOOD THANKS THO

[mortal grail]

There are 4 in front of me

[devout forum]

Guys

Chill out

You're not getting a 5090

[mortal grail]

I'm chill I'm just being a friend

[devout forum]

Scalpers already took them all

[mortal grail]

And it's absolutely in stock in front of me

[devout forum]

F them for it but still

[sage sluice]

im going to become a 5090

and let people buy me

[mortal grail]

I shouldn't do this

But I'm willing to help

[sage sluice]

[fresh timber]

5090

32gb vram

[sage sluice]

7900 gre
16gb vram
Awesome (a fraction the price)

[fading fulcrum]

he aint wrong

[devout forum]

@mortal grail Are you familiar with this monitor perchance? https://oaziscomputer.hu/termek/33497/dahua-lm25-e231b-a5-v1

it's a cheap as chips 180hz 1080p IPS

[devout forum]

I'm tempted

[pseudo patrol]

it'll give us plenty of time because of the constant reviews after everyone's recieved the top tier products, we havent even see the benchmarks of the 5070 either

[craggy turret]

ok so who here got a 5090

[pseudo patrol]

worst than ebay prices 🤣

[pseudo patrol]

theo

[mortal grail]

I see 10 now

[mortal grail]

This is aussie msrp dude

We're screwed here

[sage sluice]

screwed? i think saved, because yall aint gonna buy that bs since its too expensive

[craggy turret]

i got banned from newegg for 24hrs for refreshing too much rip

[sage sluice]

thats a thing?

[mortal grail]

Lmfao

[pliant berry]

or just themself to gain visibility on site

[pseudo patrol]

trending on twitter

[gilded kraken]

WOW thats pure greed newegg. Did you cancel bundle orders and rebundle with 1000 dollar monitors?

[reef grove]

Who else is still gaming 1080p

[kind verge]

Yall should i get a 4k monitor? Rn i play in 1080p since i have a 6650xt and 1080p in 1440p monitors looks bad and i also plan to upgrade my gpu to smth big

[reef grove]

3060ti gang unite

[gilded kraken]

WOOOOOOW

[mortal grail]

Still see 5 5090's if anyone wants one and will do anything for one

[kind verge]

Me 🗣️

[reef grove]

Nah bro, stay true to 1080p and enjoy the high frame rates

[sage sluice]

1440p is a great middleground imo even for higher end systems

4k isnt worth it unless youre playing 4080/xtx and up

[kind verge]

yeah but i alr use amd vsr to use higher res on not so demanding games and It looks sick even on a 1080p monitor

[mortal grail]

Back up to 9 preorders available

[sage sluice]

its your wallet

[kind verge]

Imma probably get an 80 series or an xtx in a couple years soo

[reef grove]

Are you trying to convince me or yourself?

I’m still happy with 1080p

But to each their own

[sage sluice]

in a couple years there could be better options

[gilded kraken]

rediculous

[sage sluice]

only time will tell

[reef grove]

https://tenor.com/view/hockey-player-head-slide-celebrate-gif-10015484652410348078

[craggy turret]

jokes on you guy i can still get rtx 60 series

[kind verge]

Yeah when i Will have the budget the 7000 series Will come out 😭🙏

[sage sluice]

they said theyd buy it in a couple years tho 💀

rn i think xtx is best value there

[mortal grail]

Suprim just went up for preorder @proud jackal

I can see 9 available

[prisma mountain]

Any difference between nitro and pulse 7900 xtx? I notice the pulse sold out overnight on newegg

[proud jackal]

[prisma mountain]

On actual specs they appear to be the same

[mortal grail]

Not enough to make the extra worth spending

[sage sluice]

get whats cheaper

easy

[kind verge]

Just buy the One that looks Better to you

[mortal grail]

Most xtx cards are good, only the xfx is loud (it's great tho) and the reference cards are loud and meh

[prisma mountain]

Don't even have the option the pulse sold out lol, was just curious

[kind verge]

as long as its not a big price diff

[mortal grail]

They're all otherwise virtually the same

[mortal grail]

Go cheapest

[sage sluice]

powercolor is my go to for amd typically

i like sapphire as well

[mortal grail]

Asrock pg gaming is usually the best cheapest for noise and thermals

[prisma mountain]

Well, let the guesses on when the next batch of stock will be here begin. What do you guys think?

[mortal grail]

March

[sage sluice]

that im broke and would be unaffected by the result of this

[mortal grail]

10 5090s available in Australia

Still available

Still horrendous pricing at msrp but available if anyone is desperate

[sage sluice]

10 5090s in my basement, come here if you want one

[mortal grail]

I mean I ain't touching them

[proud jackal]

[mortal grail]

I'd have a suprim by now if the price was worth it to me

[hot pumice]

FELIX

[sage sluice]

its still insane to me prices just keep getting higher every launch

[mortal grail]

This has been available for 30 minutes

[hot pumice]

im buying your unify and stealing ur 12900k

[mortal grail]

If I wanted it it would be gone

[icy ore]

Geez

[mortal grail]

Nyo

It ralic

[proud jackal]

https://tenor.com/view/what-the-hell-is-even-that-gif-4110676814428319147

Wait

Did he sell them

[hot pumice]

hes selling like everything lol

[proud jackal]

https://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails?ItemList=Combo.4759247

[hot pumice]

grabbing the ux for same price u sold it to him

[mortal grail]

Oh ok

Neat

[sage sluice]

would you even have a reason to get it tbh

[mortal grail]

No

[sage sluice]

[hot pumice]

yeah will proby buy a 136k for it

[mortal grail]

I paid like almost half that for a 4090 suprim

I don't want a 5090 for the price of a Mazda RX-8

[sage sluice]

ill take a mazda rx-8

[proud jackal]

https://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails?ItemList=Combo.4758694 @gilded kraken

[gilded kraken]

yea Im watching them. Im hunting for a Zotac AMP for a resonable amount

[sage sluice]

im excited when the hype dies down to see all the post-gpu clarity and realize what they just bought

at this point nvidia is just gucci for gamers

[proud jackal]

time to get ready for work

[gilded kraken]

I guess technically I could redo my case fans to mount the gpu cooler

[proud jackal]

[icy ore]

$1199 5090??

Price error?

[proud jackal]

thats what i said too

[mortal grail]

Ok I'm not gonna keep offering this forever. Last call for any 5090 takers. I won't make any money out of this but I'll take upfront to do it.
It's against the rules so I'm not keeping this up.

[full remnant]

nvidia just crashed and never came back hun?

huh?

[icy ore]

$1199

[gilded kraken]

I cant believe that. My order got voided so they could slap the amp extreme with 1000 dollar monitors as bundles

actually mad

[mortal grail]

BIG RED

His 13900k and 4090 was out dated

Needed new pc

[paper verge]

We should just be youtubers

[mortal grail]

Like jfc

[paper verge]

React to viewers PC

[fresh timber]

3080 is out dated

You need 5080

[mortal grail]

I'm just stunned the highest end 5090 costs twice as much as my high end 4090 from a day 1 preorder

It's no wonder australia isn't selling

I can just buy 2 4090s

Why bother

[fresh timber]

48gb vram or 32gb vram

[mortal grail]

For any sensible use case the 5090 makes zero sense here

[proud jackal]

but

big numer

[misty sparrow]

big number little performance gain

[mortal grail]

And I'm closing this up. Good luck to anyone still trying

[proud jackal]

its okay guys at least we get new geforce drivers today

[rancid juniper]

Copium intensifies

[frigid stag]

you got one??

how

[misty sparrow]

5090 be like

Oooo

So they are good

[wise wigeon]

has like a linear OC

i mean it should be faster without having to manually oc

[fresh timber]

Just manual oc

They gave us headroom to play with

[wise wigeon]

but the oc puts it pretty much at 4090

[fresh timber]

Done

i mean i do that wit undervolts anyway

Spend some more hours testing and it seems fine

Then tomorrow it crashes again

[gilded kraken]

what chain is this?

[proud jackal]

microcenter

[velvet summit]

Microcenter apparently

[gilded kraken]

199 at CA's MC. man thats nothing

maybe couple thousand gpu's for the entire US I would guess

[velvet summit]

Only 233 4090s as well

Why are they both odd numbers

[pliant berry]

Man the stocks on the 5090s are so low

[dawn tulip]

so all the 5090s already gone?

[gilded kraken]

I dont think newegg even put up individual cards for sale, they bundled with everything

[pastel mist]

Anyone seen them on Amazon?

[dawn tulip]

nope

[velvet summit]

I don't think Amazon sells fe

Only BB and microcenter

[pastel mist]

AIBs?

[velvet summit]

Those depend on the mfg but yeah there are official sellers on Amazon

Just specifically fe cards aren't

[pastel mist]

Havn't seen a singe 50 series yet... Hoping their just delayed

[dawn tulip]

they should really just auction these things off on the first day

[velvet summit]

That's just gonna make Nvidia even more incentivized to make even less stock so they can auction it for a higher price

[pliant berry]

Yeah that just feeds into the greed

[full remnant]

I was hoping that too man but I think we were all just trolled.

[pliant berry]

Its ok guys reviews of all the cards were meh anyway

[full remnant]

Yeah I feel yah. I'm not upset about not getting a card. I'm more pissed I wasted my time.

[gilded kraken]

I remain grumpy

[full remnant]

Like if it was just hit or miss and I didn't get one, that sucks but I could understand. This was the most egregious launch I've ever been a part of and I'm OLD! lol

[gilded kraken]

Newegg litterally held the card I was after hostage behind a bundle with a 1000 dollar OLED

I draw the line with being ok with bundles there

[full remnant]

Yeah the bundles gotta go.

It's just anticonsumer corporate greed.

Problem is, just like microtransactions, people keep buying anyway.

[gilded kraken]

I might just buy direct from Zotac after this so Newegg wont get any kickback

[frigid stag]

real

i got trolled into buying zotac 😭

[prisma mountain]

I bought a mobo bundle to get a 9800x3d when there weren't any in stock (I needed a mobo anyways)

[craggy shoal]

They should just pair a 1080p 60Hz panel with it lmao

Best bundle ever

"Discord side screen special"

[frigid stag]

weird cause a single gpu costs as much as a bundle for me

[full remnant]

Shoot I've done it too- I'm no innocent. Sometimes it's the only way.

They just throwing free stuff at you Goose?

[frigid stag]

yeah i didnt buy one tho

i got the zotac

[reef grove]

I only bought one 5090

[full remnant]

You get a FE?

[reef grove]

yea

[full remnant]

Are you in the states?

[reef grove]

yea

[full remnant]

Dope man, good for you.

I'm a hardcore watercooling enthusiast so that was not my aim. Because of the construction no one is making water blocks for it yet

[gentle canyon]

I just woke up how did doomsday I mean launch day go for the 50 series

[cedar compass]

I couldn't grab anything as well

[fresh timber]

UGH
i need to buy better usbc to usbc cables

all mines are short, and one deosnt even suport fast charging

[cedar compass]

great price

[craggy shoal]

bruh what is that

[fresh timber]

its cheaper to buy nvidias enterprise grade hardware

wtf

[cedar compass]

some newegg moment

msi store is compaltely dead lol

[dusk knot]

Proof?

[fresh timber]

and they said 50 series was bad, clearly people want it

[wise wigeon]

ngl there was a bundle that wasn't bad

iirc the msi mag psu isn't a bad psu at all and it has the yellow connector to indicate that you plugged it in all the way

major issue was it was paired with a 1200 dollar 5080

[mortal grail]

Apparently I was looking at the only store with 50 series stock earlier. No other pc store had them in Australia

[wise wigeon]

lol

[mortal grail]

They're now listed with an ETA

Meaning some 12 or so people basically got the only 5090's in AU

What a joke

[wise wigeon]

ngl I would dip my toe into the amd xtx trap if i could see if i like it before i fully commit

[prisma mountain]

I would happily pay a premium to any alternative company to nvidia that makes serious competition for the top end 90 gpu

[mortal grail]

Not only costing almost twice that of a 4090 at launch but also having so little stock they're basically non existent

[wise wigeon]

sadge aussie prices

[mortal grail]

It costs more than an RX-8 here

[wise wigeon]

i mean realistically anywhere not the US

only thing holding me back from a 7900 xtx is that dlss is just better

[mortal grail]

Like no cap I can buy a sports car for less

[sage sluice]

Dlss might not be forever

[wise wigeon]

if i pay that much for a card i want a more full feature set and fs4 4 isn't guarunteed on the 7900xtx

[sage sluice]

Might be better to just wait

Make your mind up then

[elfin mural]

spinny doritos vs 5090

who would win

[mortal grail]

Car's heavier.

[elfin mural]

tru

[opaque sedge]

My meat

[elfin mural]

wha-

that's outta NOWHERE

[wise wigeon]

i mean unless the 9070 xt was like sub 600 i wouldn't mind payin the extra for that extra vram

[mortal grail]

Like you compare this to last gen I paid like 60% less for my suprim

[elfin mural]

i didn't expect that

[opaque sedge]

Excuse me?!?! My meat doesn’t just go anywhere

[sage sluice]

Your meat is everywhere

[elfin mural]

it's being compared to the 5090

[opaque sedge]

Shaming in 2025 smh

[mortal grail]

I would rather fingertips' meat compared to the 5090 price

[elfin mural]

ayo

WHAT

[sage sluice]

Dont fingertip his meat

[opaque sedge]

https://tenor.com/view/yuimetal-gif-2236335851178412850

[mortal grail]

I meant every definition

[elfin mural]

sussy

[mortal grail]

These prices are ass

Only 1 store got stock here and it was double digits max

[elfin mural]

at least you can enjoy the meat for the fraction of the price

[mortal grail]

27 million people

[mortal grail]

I could enjoy hundreds

[elfin mural]

real

[mortal grail]

They need to do something about that price, I didn't see anyone in AU saying they were gonna buy that

Really stark compared to some people even getting sub msrp 4090s

[craggy shoal]

The 5090's performance would actually outlive that RX-8's life lol

[mortal grail]

The RX-8 would be worth more by the time the 5090 dies

[craggy shoal]

Probably 💀

[mortal grail]

If not a rotary blown piece of scrap 💀

Point holds enough though, I can get a sports car for the price

That's too much

Like some people are even saying the 5080 can OC a little to almost catch a 4090, like cool, they cost like almost 1500 usd here 💀

The 4090 sold for less than that at one point

How is any of this selling man I just don't get it

[misty sparrow]

Can probably get a used 4090 for less

[mortal grail]

The 5080 astral costs MORE than a used 4090 did here a week ago

It's like ????

[dusk knot]

So did anyone snatch a day one card?

[mortal grail]

And not some dumb 4090

[mortal grail]

Like suprims, strixes

GOOD ones

[mortal grail]

We had a handful

[misty sparrow]

every one of these things I’ve seen show disappointing results

for the tests

[mortal grail]

I saw preorders myself JP

[dusk knot]

Hm

[mortal grail]

Stocks all gone now tho

[dusk knot]

Naturally

[misty sparrow]

Politicians would say the same thing too except about different stocks

[fresh timber]

i want 4080 performance for $600

[mortal grail]

The 5080 reviews are amusing cos it shows how much the XTX was better than the 4080S despite what everyone said

[dusk knot]

Now I wait for 5080ti....

[fresh timber]

xtx bettre??

[mortal grail]

Ye

[fresh timber]

in what? raster and nothing els??

[dusk knot]

Raster

[fresh timber]

rater

i love rater

[dusk knot]

😡

Anyways. The 7900xtx is impressive

But not in RT

[mortal grail]

Someone got one for $700 here yesterday

A good one too

Merc310

[fresh timber]

always a downside with amd 😦

hey, atleast xtx has proper rocm support

[dusk knot]

why I'll never get a card from them

[fresh timber]

UNlike the 7800xt and below

amd littrely sells on their lower end

[elfin mural]

it also has less vram than 4090 so like

that defeats the point

[fresh timber]

16gb is fineeee

most people wont neeed more

[mortal grail]

It's a wash

[elfin mural]

if it's gonna match the 4090 it better have 24gb

[mortal grail]

It's not a real match if the bus and vram come up short

[fresh timber]

vram

get 16gb 3060ti

[dusk knot]

Or 20

The most logical step

[fresh timber]

wanna know whats funny

[sage sluice]

Me

[fresh timber]

a mac could beat a 5090

[mortal grail]

I could too if I had a bat

[fresh timber]

lol

[sage sluice]

And a 5090

[fresh timber]

i need money so i dont get basemodel m4 mbp

going from 512gb to 1tb cost like $100 or something

[mortal grail]

Portable ssd costs like 50

[fresh timber]

disgusting

mp44+nvme enclosure

duh

nah thats digusting

use a nas

ill be taking donations to my po box

[sinful blade]

@mortal grail might be getting a 6700XT for $175

[fresh timber]

lol

[sinful blade]

Fbmp deals ftw

That's solid

[mortal grail]

I mean I just see value man idc

im messing with u

its valid unless u have a 256gb mac, jeff gerling made a video and he said he had a 256gb mac and it was a pain to balance with an external drive

[mortal grail]

It's hard to tell sometimes mb lol

[fresh timber]

after 512gb, less pain

1tb, peak

[mortal grail]

I deal with hundreds of people a week with all sorts of responses

💀

[fresh timber]

lol

if i get the money ill get 1tb one

i put $400 in my savings for it alr

basicly the ssd upgrade right their

[mortal grail]

Actually it has an sd slot

[fresh timber]

wow

o shoot thats going to be very useful for what im doing

[mortal grail]

You could get a sandisk and use that man

Cheap af

[fresh timber]

[mortal grail]

Lol

[fresh timber]

the speed

poop

[mortal grail]

Ehh it's usable

[fresh timber]

imagine trying to edit or transfer files on and off that

[mortal grail]

I'd transfer but ye

[fresh timber]

i bottlenecked my internet speed with a sd card before, it was fun

[mortal grail]

I was scammed once by an sd card

Probably my only scam story

Knew nothing about tech, bought one of those fake 512gb ones, didn't know there was such a thing

[fresh timber]

i use a 128gb one for my switch, then i lost it

[mortal grail]

Was surprised to find a few months later all my saved stuff was obviously gone

Lol

[elfin mural]

[dusk knot]

https://youtu.be/D_sVNuOg74c?si=gEd7WxfcZbgb8H9j almost 4090 stock performance when OC..

[fresh timber]

i plugged it into my pc to download games, it was stuck at like 50mbps

[elfin mural]

the firmware just hid it all in a black hole

somewhere in the universe

[mortal grail]

*Except you can OC the 4090

[fresh timber]

good enough for me, i shall buy 5080

[mortal grail]

[fresh timber]

ill go broke if i buy mac and 5080 ima stop

[mortal grail]

It did, I lost a lot of travel pics

[fresh timber]

i got a tip from photographers, treat sd cards as temp storage

[mortal grail]

Yes

[dusk knot]

I did say stock 4090

[elfin mural]

rip

[fresh timber]

does it use less power

i see that as a win if it does

[mortal grail]

Ye but you can still oc it tho

[dusk knot]

Yes

[dusk knot]

Ik

[fresh timber]

its a win

[elfin mural]

someone made a 5090 burn out the glue in a psu's sticker

[mortal grail]

LMFAOOAOA

[dusk knot]

750w PSU LOL

[icy ore]

[fresh timber]

yeah.. i wonder why it broke

wow

[mortal grail]

Imagine the future

No more melting cables, but psus

LMFAO

[fresh timber]

even nvidia recommends a 1000w

[mortal grail]

750 is pushing it yeah lol

[fresh timber]

user error is fun

[mortal grail]

But even still that hotspot is insane

It's a focus gx

That's not a cheap psu at all

[sage sluice]

What would be the maximum for 750w

[mortal grail]

750

[fresh timber]

Uses underrated psu shocked when it burns

[fresh timber]

ehhh

officaly 750w, can go above

[mortal grail]

I would NEVER recommend above

[fresh timber]

doesnt mean it cant

[mortal grail]

Feel free but I'll never say that openly

[sage sluice]

I meant what 750 could handle gpu-wise, shoulda clarified

Like typical 80+ gold

[mortal grail]

Depends on opp/ocp/ovp

[fresh timber]

that they design psus to not trigger their protections if they go above rated power draw if its a good psu tho not recommended to do so?

[mortal grail]

Typically between 10-30%

[mortal grail]

Yes

[fresh timber]

i trpped a 500w smart pushing a 13600kf and 7700xt

[fresh timber]

best way to put it

[mortal grail]

Yes 10000% don't go above spec unless you know exactly what you're doing

I'll never recommend under spec

[fresh timber]

i over speced my psu

i got a 850w to replce my 650w it was loud and it pissed me off

yeah all rtx are getting frame gen

Not explosive enough

[fresh timber]

imagine a nvidia engineer in this server saying things that are true but nobody belives him because they arnt offical annouced

and everything he said is true because he designed it

[elfin mural]

that has happened before

nah

jensen said we cant say that

[dusk knot]

60 💀

[mortal grail]

Well yeah they gotta charge us 2800 for a worse raster card than a 4080 next

[fresh timber]

if they could 60x ur frames with generation and its no diffrent to real frames, ill welcome it

until then, i hate it

[sage sluice]

Watch a new driver release with higher clocks

[woven turret]

he doesn't look surprised

[wise wigeon]

It’s still sub 400w too

[mortal grail]

You use standoff screws included with the case

Not doubting you but also, the expectation is screws

[woven turret]

it snaps into place

but getting the MB to fit onto it is challenging

[mortal grail]

I thought you meant the whole motherboard

-50% when i m waiting

[woven turret]

motherboard screws in

[wise wigeon]

Look the b580 is still 4060 ti level and it’s a massive

[elfin mural]

it matches 3070 in some games

and certain cases

And with all the intel caveats itd have to be significantly cheaper

[woven turret]

its-a massive and its-a big

[wicked oriole]

Anyone else getting game crashes w new driver update?

[wise wigeon]

I still haven’t swapped to Nvidia app yet

[fresh timber]

Why can’t Nvidia just make a lossless scaling clone so you can upscale anything

[elfin mural]

Wait for their AI stocks to fall again

[pseudo patrol]

oo

[woven turret]

what even is DLSS?

[elfin mural]

nvidia's upscaler

[woven turret]

Doble Large Strange Soda?

[fresh timber]

Fsr but it’s good

[woven turret]

I turn it off

[sage sluice]

google it

[elfin mural]

imma update gpu drivers rq

[sage sluice]

basically it tries to increase game performance. upscaling works by making you play at lower resolutions and using algorithms to make it bigger (say upscaling 1080 to 1440p). this typically results in small visual glitches and artifacting, worse the more youre upscaling.

[sinful blade]

Drop large soap statues.

[sage sluice]

frame gen generates frames using a reference of the two frames it's between, and tries to make that 3rd step or however many frames are being generated. this comes with its shortcomings as well

delay, visual inconsistencies, weird blurs etc

[elfin mural]

and it becomes DLAA if you run it 100%

cuz it tries to enhance the native res

[sage sluice]

yep

quality dlss renders at about 66% of native resolution

[elfin mural]

perfect summary of 50 series launch rn

[pseudo patrol]

why get a 5090 when there's lossless scaling

[sage sluice]

why get a 5090 when (fill in the blank, theres many reasons)

[woven turret]

what software do I use to update AMD gpus?

Idc about the 5090. Toy Story turns 30 on November 22 this year

[craggy shoal]

lol dos the school

[fresh timber]

Can’t confirm or deny that Iv already did this

[craggy shoal]

💀💀💀

[pseudo patrol]

ima wait for the 5070

[craggy shoal]

I remember I was sitting with a friend group and we were all talking about DDOS'ing the school. A couple periods later, sure enough, the school's Internet access went down 💀💀💀

[craggy shoal]

L GPU tbh

[pseudo patrol]

true, I was jus gonna look at the reviews

im never replacing mine

[craggy shoal]

I was gonna get a 5080 but that’s not even an option anymore given how much it's lacking

[pseudo patrol]

they barely had any quantity, as soon as it hit markets then instant SOLD OUT

[rancid juniper]

I feel like Radeon will finally release whql drivers when RDNA 4 comes out

[mortal grail]

I reckon this will climb a bit but that 5080 got a long way to go

[rancid juniper]

People already chasing scores

[mortal grail]

Even the best score is almost 10% off the average

[rancid juniper]

Best 5080 can never touch 4090 perf

[pseudo patrol]

lets just wait on 60 series lol

[wind quail]

My arch nemesis (without Ti)

[pseudo patrol]

hopefully less AI

[rancid juniper]

More ai slop

Yes

[mortal grail]

More is possible lmao

[rancid juniper]

^^^

I hope deepseek or any other free ai alternative continue damaging them

Seriously

[pseudo patrol]

Thats the issue, they need more competition in GPU range where real power overcomes AI bs

[craggy shoal]

That won't happen lmao

[rancid juniper]

Nvidia has way too much market share to dismiss ai entirely

[craggy shoal]

Jenson had a vision of AI since he was at Denny's lmao

[mortal grail]

Only a month ago

💀

[craggy shoal]

Lmaooo

You know what I mean lol

[mortal grail]

Ye

Tbh if it does bring genuine improvement, I'm on board

But also

People are vastly overselling this gen hardware

Lmfao

[cedar compass]

Only one didn't drop anything is Bh

[rancid juniper]

https://www.youtube.com/live/jkX_8nzd5Oc?si=LtV7Zo6aCb_kcW-G

[craggy shoal]

I still want a proper analysis of Blackwell and MFG. if it doesn't bring too much latency, then maybe it's worth investing in

[pseudo patrol]

after people finish financing their 5090 from scalpers we'll have a 60 series in no time

[rancid juniper]

https://youtu.be/9V81-8O8yCM?si=84LquyAbcr4v-wVY

[craggy shoal]

Only for 60 to be scalped again

[mortal grail]

It objectively doesn't with new reflex involved, the problem is the base frame rate needs to be high enough to make it render without serious issues

And even then it does have issues

Like you want ideally at a minimum 60fps

Which ruins the point of WHY you'd want mfg to begin with

Along with shimmering and halo artifacts

There's problems just like FG had, but FG itself looks tons better

[craggy shoal]

Still comes down to game optimization. If you look at GPUs, they’re quite powerful. It's stuff like UE5 that makes them look less useable

[mortal grail]

The tradeoff however is you don't improve latency despite the fps increase, you only improve because of reflex

[pseudo patrol]

found cod settings

[mortal grail]

That should never be toggled in comp games

LOL

[opaque sedge]

Guys ff7 rebirth is consuming over 10gigs of vram in my system my 12 gigs will be fine right 💀

[wind quail]

B b but more frames right?

[mortal grail]

You get frame smoothness, not actual system latency improvements. Reflex is doing the work

[pseudo patrol]

MORE FRAMES

[rancid juniper]

Frame generation in marvel rivals for example is a complete joke

It doesn't make it any smoother but instead feels like a PowerPoint presentation

[mortal grail]

Someone said something interesting to me today, they mentioned pre-rendered vsync was very similar in it's adoption when nvidia went through that

[devout forum]

@mortal grail would you say that 40 series FG is now at least 90% the quality of native rendering?

[mortal grail]

And it made a lot of sense, cos vsync was for frame smoothness

Now no one touches it

[devout forum]

Cuz like

If it's 90+% the quality
Then my reason to hate on FG kinda disappear

Especially should it match native render quality

[mortal grail]

I haven't tested myself yet cos I want reflex 2 first. But videos tell me that it does look like it's a passing grade with the right settings now

Sometimes it looks better than native

Honest opinion

[devout forum]

That's kinda wild

[mortal grail]

I only bash when I see crap

[devout forum]

4080 def the way forward

[mortal grail]

MFG to me looks ass comparatively

[devout forum]

Fair

[rancid juniper]

I'd only turn on frame generation if the game is locked to 60fps (tied to physics)

[devout forum]

It's just kinda wild how things swung around

[mortal grail]

Yeah the 60 fps floor is a big issue imo

[devout forum]

Framegen FO4 to 240fps lol

[mortal grail]

Reflex 2 is the only reason I said anything I just did

[rancid juniper]

😏

[mortal grail]

Without it I'd still hate FG

Reflex 2 is incredible

[devout forum]

Though to be fair there is a good mod to decouple physics from frame rate

And just run 200fps native

[mortal grail]

There is

It's similar to reflex 2 as well

[rancid juniper]

I just realized... AMD's anti-lag 2

Thing's barely used

[mortal grail]

I wouldn't put them on the same level

[devout forum]

But yes it is incredibly weird how things just swung around at the drop of a hat between the XTX and the 4080

[opaque sedge]

the game is effing beautiful tho ngl

[mortal grail]

As much as AMD does catch up quick, reflex 2 is a huge step

[rancid juniper]

Ik I was thinking about red team's alternative

[mortal grail]

They don't have one honestly

Not yet

[craggy shoal]

Yes

[mortal grail]

They will have one but not yet

[dusk knot]

buying a 4060 is begging to struggle in modern games

[rancid juniper]

CS2 is the only game I know that uses anti lag 2

[opaque sedge]

fellow 12 gig haver

[wind quail]

I cannot remember is reflex 2 coming to the older gens?

[mortal grail]

I'd consider anti lag 2 more like reflex 1.5 lol

[devout forum]

IIRC the recommendation train was
First XTX
Then 4080S cuz price drop
Then XTX after it got price dropped
And now 4080 with used pricing and Reflex 2

[mortal grail]

Yes

[craggy shoal]

I would know lmao

[devout forum]

Yep

[wind quail]

Pog all rtx cards i assume?

[rancid juniper]

Lol it does work at the very least

[devout forum]

It's definitely coming to 40 series
Probably also 30 series

[opaque sedge]

ngl maybe i should turn down settings enough for it to be below 10 gigs

[devout forum]

IDK about 20 series but Felix can probs answer that

[wind quail]

Hmm hopefully 30 series

[mortal grail]

I will flip back to AMD very quick if AMD invents their alternative (They would be stupid not to so it def will happen)

[wind quail]

I really don't need to upgrade yet

[rancid juniper]

What was Intel's answer to reflex again?

Forgot

[devout forum]

Death

[rancid juniper]

Real

[devout forum]

Just

Commit kts

(I jest)

[mortal grail]

"Other RTX cards later" is the tl;dr I recall

[devout forum]

But yes

[opaque sedge]

Hope amd does their gpus well ngl since nvidia is never gonna give us enough vram but maybe i’m being too hopeful seeing the recent news

[devout forum]

Right now the 4080 is quite compelling with value because it's very close in price to the XTX with better features

[opaque sedge]

[rancid juniper]

Doubting the prices 100%

[mortal grail]

Yes

[devout forum]

I mean sure
VRAM isn't quite enough for 4k probably
But at 1440p it's peachy

[rancid juniper]

AMD knows they're gonna lose money hard this time

[devout forum]

Like 16 gigs is enough for 1440p right??

[rancid juniper]

Yea

[devout forum]

RIGHT???

Phew

[pseudo patrol]

is this worth keeping on? it was a bit fuzzy without it

[opaque sedge]

Ur the techie u tell us

[rancid juniper]

99% modern games do well with 16gb at 1440p

[opaque sedge]

Wbt 12 gigs…

[rancid juniper]

The others are unoptimized vram hoggers

[opaque sedge]

[rancid juniper]

It can still do it

[devout forum]

That's just upscaling
If you have good framerates I wouldn't use it

[pseudo patrol]

alot better than 8gb

[opaque sedge]

Is nearing that number in consumption when playing games bad btw

[rancid juniper]

You know what, type up Indiana Jones 6700xt or 7700xt

[devout forum]

1440p maxed native?

[dusk knot]

@mortal grail Reflex effects all input right, even keyboard input?

[opaque sedge]

Wasnt that game surprisingly well optimized

[devout forum]

It was

[rancid juniper]

Depends on the game, worst you can get are slowdowns or stutters

Mostly the latter I presume

[rancid juniper]

Yes

[devout forum]

RT mandated
Still runs well on basically most things worth having

[mortal grail]

Yes

It's why I'm making a big deal out of it

[pseudo patrol]

ah alright, i'll also set the preset to ultra performance too

[opaque sedge]

Yh think i’m noticing stutters in rebirth currently vram is over 10gigs

[mortal grail]

It's literally Nvidia's biggest pinch hitter rn

Nothing else matters without reflex 2

[rancid juniper]

Square enix when demanding game:

[opaque sedge]

Wbt controller

[dusk knot]

AND it should work with MFG?

[mortal grail]

Yes and yes

But mfg just looks ass

[dusk knot]

for now

[mortal grail]

It has stupid requisites

[mortal grail]

Ye for now

[devout forum]

MFG feels like not worth buying a generation over

[mortal grail]

Cos it's not

In 2 years it'll be good

Buy it then lol

[devout forum]

I wonder if the 60 series will have any actual hardware upgrades

[wind quail]

Hmmmm i will keep my hopes aggressively mediocre then

[dusk knot]

nvm my question

[mortal grail]

Haven't but the reviews of it are pretty universal

[dusk knot]

How much more can you push 675 watts of power?

[rancid juniper]

[dusk knot]

i believe yes

[devout forum]

(a single 12V-2×6)

[devout forum]

Okay but 6800 XT?

[rancid juniper]

It is the best value card right now

[devout forum]

6800 XT is like 1080 Ti levels of awesome in my eyes

[mortal grail]

6700XT is one of my favourite all time cards

It's just been goated in value forever

[devout forum]

It's really funny how I accidentally ended up getting one

[rancid juniper]

6700xt under the hood is a powerhouse for the price

[mortal grail]

The one I had ran stupid well too

[rancid juniper]

I know because I used to own one

[devout forum]

Cuz originally I was gonna get a 5700 XT

[mortal grail]

No issues day one

[craggy shoal]

lmao I just bought a 6800 XT for $200

[devout forum]

Yes get your cringing out of the way now

I almost got a 5700 XT when buying my PC

Now I'm kinda sad

Shouldn't have gone AM5

That's a mistake I still regret
