[fierce grove]

[wise wigeon]

buddy i was there

[fierce grove]

[proud jackal]

[mortal grail]

@wise wigeon do you want an aussie pulse

[lone mango]

[mortal grail]

Lol

[pliant berry]

So apparently I was testing how well ltt bag holds up with water yesterday

[mortal grail]

No one here works for newegg sorry

Answer is as good as the ether

[worthy meteor]

Very unlikely, only sporadic stock from people canceling orders

[mortal grail]

We don't know

[wise wigeon]

or just api bugs

[pliant berry]

If I were to take a guess id say no, restocks are almost never same day

[idle flax]

I was using a auto refresher but I didn’t have anything to add to cart or anything I just got lucky I guess

[worthy meteor]

Or bugs, there's that too

[elfin mural]

gotta wait for the next drop ig

[worthy meteor]

I mean stock lasted for over half an hour today

[elfin mural]

cuz people are thirsty for gpus rn

[wise wigeon]

that sound like it'd take a good while lol

[worthy meteor]

It was easily doable getting anything that's not MSRP

[idle flax]

Nah it’s not a script or anything literally the same as smashing F5 over and over again haha

[lone mango]

Two slot powercolor 9070 xt, interesting

[wise wigeon]

eh

[lone mango]

Yea they feinin rn

[pliant berry]

Maybe instead of bot just have a script on separate machine checking website for changes and when a change is detected immediately reload page on your main machine

[wise wigeon]

could still get cancelled lol

[idle flax]

The nitro vanished for me too but happy with my gigabyte purchase it’s a huge upgrade from my 3080

[worthy meteor]

Could get canceled but it's more than doable getting the 720 730 tier cards

[pliant berry]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[mortal grail]

I mean it's more that it'll cost a bit lmao

[wise wigeon]

i mean shiping international aint cheap

[mortal grail]

Ya it'll barely be worth it at best

Lmfao

[wise wigeon]

and I dont trust companies to not drop kick it

[lone mango]

[wise wigeon]

because i have the drop kicked gpu experience

lol you werent here to see how my first XTX arrived

[mortal grail]

Lol true

[fierce grove]

[elfin mural]

[mortal grail]

ACER HAD A CARD?

[rancid juniper]

local store scalpers is nuts

[wise wigeon]

[rancid juniper]

[wise wigeon]

https://tenor.com/view/goblin-slayer-stressed-priestess-anime-you-get-used-to-it-gif-13752108

[elfin mural]

[lone mango]

Oh people are buying the prime now

[elfin mural]

[fierce grove]

sigh… time to get the 7900 xtx

[wise wigeon]

Wait for a 999 one at least

Don’t get a 1100 one

At least yours comes with mh wilds

[lone mango]

[wise wigeon]

Might fight Amazon to see if I can’t get a copy of wilds for mine

like "oh you guys charge me just a day before the promo"

"I waited 2 weeks for it"

[rancid juniper]

Understandable tho

The pulse looks really good

[wicked oriole]

[wicked oriole]

nah im pretty sure my mc is right

[wise wigeon]

what makes you think it is for these

[fierce grove]

[lone mango]

Gigabyte is now 25 and not 25+

[misty sparrow]

depression because broke

[rancid juniper]

depression because crap economy, crap market, low availability

[wise wigeon]

unfortunately AMD decided all the stock in the US should go to microcenter

[mortal grail]

@craggy shoal @rancid juniper

[fierce grove]

depression because no 9070 xt

[idle flax]

Only ones who stop scalpers

[wicked oriole]

my c6 salutes this

I would not be surprised if one microcenter have more stockthan best buy

[wise wigeon]

[mortal grail]

NUMBER THREEEEEEE

[pseudo raven]

[devout forum]

[wise wigeon]

[pseudo raven]

mine is 650

💀

[mortal grail]

Oh non xt

[rancid juniper]

[wise wigeon]

bruh what

[misty sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/ryan-gosleng-gif-9249395635597248000

[rancid juniper]

lucky me but also not lucky

because why jump from 7800xt to 9070XT

[pseudo raven]

the psu wattage

[mortal grail]

It pulls 450W up to 500W peaks. Um...

[lone mango]

Yeah xt is 750

[wise wigeon]

you wanted to put a 350w card on a 650w psu

[pseudo raven]

no I don't want to

[wicked oriole]

because of the OC

[wise wigeon]

huh?

[fresh timber]

Fortunate for me

[wicked oriole]

and its not even all of them

[devout forum]

731 USD brand new GRE

just about 7800 XT pricing actually

[pseudo raven]

surely with a 5600x it won't take that much

but i will get an 850w most likely

[wise wigeon]

brother buy a new PSU

[pliant berry]

What currency is that

[heavy dew]

Boys and girls wish me luck because Im bidding on 18 mf Xboxes from goodwill

[pseudo raven]

I kinda want to test it though

[devout forum]

Forint

[mortal grail]

On 650W that's seriously borderline lmao

[devout forum]

Hungarian monopoly money

[mortal grail]

And a 5600X will bottleneck it

[pliant berry]

Hungarian monopoly hmm

I have not seen that one before

[heavy dew]

I love Hungarian monopoly

[wise wigeon]

i'm waiting for the poof

[pseudo raven]

At 1440p? Not in a meaningful way for the games I play

[misty sparrow]

18 xbox consoles? Good luck but sounds really strange lmao

[pseudo raven]

and I'll go 4k soon

[devout forum]

it's legitimately worth less than the Monopoly dollars in the board game

[heavy dew]

If they work, I finna sell them ALL ON EBAY

[rancid juniper]

most expensive goes to the ugliest XFX card

[mortal grail]

Yes it will and 4K is barely equitable on these

[rancid juniper]

good

[pliant berry]

Lmao

[fierce grove]

is that still available?

[wise wigeon]

mag with rgb is 850 lol

[mortal grail]

I've seen enough cards at this performance tier to know what bottlenecks

[wise wigeon]

microcenter

[pliant berry]

Currency is such a strange thing

[fierce grove]

aw

[lone mango]

Its ridiculous

[misty sparrow]

What’s the difference between all the models anyway? RGB and stuff? Don’t know why they have price differences in the hundreds

[pseudo raven]

the guy in front of me bought the sapphire plus lol

[mortal grail]

Very little

[pseudo raven]

isn't that 839

[rancid juniper]

on b&h photo right?

[wise wigeon]

yah know with all this amd rat race maybe nvidia will start launching some 70tis

[wise wigeon]

everywhere

[mortal grail]

The best model I think will be the swift in due course

[worthy meteor]

I'm using a 700w PSU and I'm planning on power limiting the 9070xt and working on a uv right away lol

[pseudo raven]

oh yeah

[devout forum]

dang

[idle flax]

Oh no the gigabyte isn’t three 8 pins only two

[pseudo raven]

the price on my gpus box

is torn odf

[devout forum]

9070 XT is the same price here as the 7900 XT currently is

[pseudo raven]

amd definitely cut prices very very late

[wise wigeon]

yes lol

[pseudo raven]

there was a 9070xt with a 1k price tag on it

on display

[mortal grail]

Which cpu

[pseudo raven]

that rung up for 599 still

[mortal grail]

Wait why am I asking

I Ask you for psu advice

LOL

[worthy meteor]

13600k but uh yea I'm gonna work on uving this too lol

[lone mango]

I hope there were just less of the pure in stock because no way people bought that much of the pure

[worthy meteor]

I'm banking on this PSU actually being bad and OCP being loose lol

because it's some weird sff thing

[idle flax]

Two pin bad?

[velvet summit]

wdym
every currency is worth less than monopoly money
you can buy HOUSES for 50 bucks
and up to the highest end it's 200 bucks per house
you can rent an entire ass hotel for only 2k

[pseudo raven]

what store are you looking at

[devout forum]

Huh, that actually feels pretty good

[pseudo raven]

but yeah there were waaaay more msrp cards

[velvet summit]

monopoly money has got to be the highest value currency in the world ong

[devout forum]

2175 USD, not too bad for our market actually

[wise wigeon]

hes right, but it dont stop AIBs

[mortal grail]

That's actually kinda ok

[wise wigeon]

[idle flax]

My 3080

[pseudo raven]

[mortal grail]

It's fibe

[pseudo raven]

[mortal grail]

[idle flax]

I have Corsair 850

[lone mango]

Fime

[worthy meteor]

Microcenter might still have the $90 or so rm850e

[mortal grail]

There's a core reactor 1000W for like 105 rn

[fierce grove]

who else order got cancelled twice

LOL

[wise wigeon]

idk about 90

[wise wigeon]

is the VE reviewed?

[worthy meteor]

idk rm850e used to be pretty cheap

[mortal grail]

?

[pseudo raven]

I think i saw that rm850e actually

[wise wigeon]

thought you said the 850w

[mortal grail]

I believe it was core reactor ii

[idle flax]

I think you’re cooked

[pseudo raven]

hmm core reactor

[mortal grail]

Idk any ve

[worthy meteor]

core reactor ii 1000w is $130

[wise wigeon]

there is a core reactore and the new core reactor VE

[mortal grail]

Hmmm

Maybe it changed

[wise wigeon]

nah its been sitting at 130 for me

110 was the lowest i saw

[gentle canyon]

ITS REALL

[wise wigeon]

if there is a rm850x get that its prob not that much more unless microcenter really wants to get rid of rme

[mortal grail]

No it was core reactor ii

[idle flax]

Welp I need to sleep Gn congrats to all of us who beat the bots today

[mortal grail]

@sweet phoenix saw it too

[fierce grove]

what’s an alternative to the 9070 xt

[mortal grail]

Core reactor ii was def 105

[mortal grail]

Suffering

[gentle canyon]

Did you not get one

[wise wigeon]

he got 2 cancelled

[mortal grail]

7900 XT @fierce grove for 620-680 is probably the next closest realistic thing

[gentle canyon]

Damn that sucks

[wise wigeon]

i got mine cancelled too

[cedar compass]

Where's 9070xt 600$ msrp gang

[worthy meteor]

It is, looks good, just worse caps than core reactor ii
https://hwbusters.com/psus/xpg-core-reactor-ii-ve-750w-psu-review/11/

[wise wigeon]

like maybe 2 people lol

[mortal grail]

We have a couple people here who definitely got msrp

And a number of others got cards too

This was way better than any of the other launches

[worthy meteor]

lots of people got cards, few got msrp cards

[lone mango]

Fortunately plenty of msrp near me

[wise wigeon]

we had more before the canellations

[lone mango]

I have hope for 9060 series

[mortal grail]

I'm sad for you man but I don't have a solution to it

Lol

[gentle canyon]

My microcenter has tons of cards still it looks like

Quite a few at msrp too

[cedar compass]

I don't think so this launch was sux as much as nvidia launch

[gentle canyon]

Atleast there was stock that makes it infinite times better

[mortal grail]

We had more people succeed this time than any of the others thisnyear

[lone mango]

Yea way better than novideo

[mortal grail]

Like

By miles

We had over half a dozen even get orders in

Thata a LOT

[fierce grove]

got cancelled twice

[gentle canyon]

Lmao I’m not even interested in buying one atm, if I was I’d def be over there rn

Like a hour drive so not the closest

[cedar compass]

I see most of them are for like 800$

[fierce grove]

what’s the 620/680 be more specific please

[wise wigeon]

4 hours for me

[worthy meteor]

there was enough time this launch to cancel and reorder a different GPU lol

[mortal grail]

Money

Dollars

Moolah

Cash

[fierce grove]

oh i thought you listed a model of a gpu

LOL

[cedar compass]

AMD be like : no cheap GPUs for you noobs

[wise wigeon]

you just kinda expect moreafter they hype up availability and stockpile for over a month

can you imagine if it launched in january?

[worthy meteor]

Would be as bad as 50xx

[mortal grail]

Immediately remembers 6000 series

[worthy meteor]

true

[wise wigeon]

literally the only reason its not as bad is because they had over a month of stockpile

[mortal grail]

[worthy meteor]

as bad as that too

[fresh nova]

Yay fun water nado!

[sinful blade]

Has anyone ever had new balance shoes?
My work has a free shoe program and that’s apparently half of the shoes available

[sinful blade]

I’m not a sneaker head

[wise wigeon]

new balance is good

free shoes are free shoes

[sinful blade]

Any of these good?

I have to get big ones, cuz I can’t fit anything below 13

[devout forum]

330k HUF for a 9070 XT doesn't really feel better ngl

[mortal grail]

How much is that in eagles per burger

[devout forum]

just shy of 900

[sinful blade]

@wise wigeon forgot to tag you

[devout forum]

it's slightly above 7900 XT pricing

[worthy meteor]

What about in washing machines per hot dog

[devout forum]

I believe that'd be 895

[mortal grail]

Ew

[devout forum]

the number itself barely means anything

[fresh timber]

would u rather 9070xt or 5080 ti super 5090 edition

[devout forum]

What matters is its slightly more than a 7900 XT

[wise wigeon]

didnt you say there were used 4080S at 1k

[sinful blade]

THE TIME FOR REVOLUTION IS NIGH

[devout forum]

that's 420k HUF

[mortal grail]

Are they both 12v high melting rate

[devout forum]

which is a hair over a grand USD

so yeah

[worthy meteor]

I'd rather have 3080 ti super super super thanks

[fresh timber]

9070xt nitro

i got 2 cancelled

like bruhhh

[devout forum]

as long as the 4080 is available used for less than 450k (1100 or so)
Then the 9070 XT is not even really better value

[sage sluice]

You can preorder it rn?

[devout forum]

[mortal grail]

It doesn't mean the gigabyte sucks

[fierce grove]

i feel like it’s gonna get cancelled

[mortal grail]

It just isn't as likely to overclock well given gigabyte's history

It'll run fine

[idle flax]

Nah it went from confirmed to packaging

It's having rng luck vs rng but you have a higher baseline for minimums

[idle flax]

I don’t over lock much the most like +100

I only game lol

[wicked oriole]

got approved for the amazon card and i get like 100 off

time to wait

[idle flax]

Still is a solid upgrade from my current card tho

[mortal grail]

Man so many people got one

This is actually kinda insane

[idle flax]

Does hdr affect fps?

I don't think I've been a part of a launch where like half the chat managed to get a gpu

[mortal grail]

@devout forum did you see the earlier post about 5090 recalls

[devout forum]

360hz 4k QD-OLED for 230k HUF

[devout forum]

Not yet

But it's probably a dumpster fire

oh Felix

It's official

[mortal grail]

Supposedly in eu they're recalling them for a fire risk

[idle flax]

That really isn’t a lot of stock if you think abt it lol

[devout forum]

the cheapest 4k QD-OLED is a 27"

[mortal grail]

Ew

[devout forum]

it's like half the price of a 32"

[idle flax]

4k oled omg I have 1440 o oled n it’s changed gaming for me lol

[mortal grail]

It is

[devout forum]

like

[mortal grail]

Absolutely pointless

At 27"

[devout forum]

Half the price

[mortal grail]

You need like 10/5 eyesight

[idle flax]

I have the 34 Alienware

[mortal grail]

For ppi to make sense

For 4k 27"

[wise wigeon]

how much pixel density you need

[devout forum]

It's not about PPI

It's the price

[mortal grail]

It is

[idle flax]

It’s about Pp

[devout forum]

It's half the cost of the other 4k QD-OLEDs

[mortal grail]

Ppd is extremely dense at 4k 27"

[mortal grail]

At the cost of the caveats

[wise wigeon]

the visual clarity is not a great deal greater and now you have chunked your fps by 33%

[devout forum]

a 4080 can drive it

[idle flax]

So build boi I’ll have a solid noticeable upgrade with This card

[devout forum]

I mean yes

[mortal grail]

For maybe a year or so more

[devout forum]

but like

[worthy meteor]

Wouldn't be very optimistic about running new games at 4k in general

[mortal grail]

Yes

[devout forum]

it's cheaper than the cheapest 1440p OLED here

[worthy meteor]

Without some kind of fg

[wise wigeon]

can, but you knwo that the 4080 can do as well? run 1440p at high refresh

[devout forum]

isn't the 4080 capable of like 100fps native 4k?

at ultra settings

[mortal grail]

No

[wise wigeon]

lol no

[mortal grail]

No

Def not

[worthy meteor]

New games? Hahahaha no

[idle flax]

Yay I can’t wait to see it on my oles with ultra settings I hope I can put it in tomorrow

[devout forum]

I wish 1440p OLEDs were cheaper

[mortal grail]

4K 60 is realistic

This is why I warn people not to do 4K if not on a 90 card

[wise wigeon]

are you buying a whole new pc?

still not worth the price sorry

[fierce grove]

thinking about it yes, just wondering if that particular one has good parts, i was gonna get the 9700x and the 9070 XT anyway

oh bruh

[wicked oriole]

depends on the game but native its rough

[wise wigeon]

yeah if its a 2k prebuilt and aint like a x3d plus like a 5080 thats overpriced

[wicked oriole]

i tried to get my buddy to get a pre built for 2700, perfect part sheet only bad case and he missed out imo

[mortal grail]

Best way to put it yeah

[wise wigeon]

to put it in perspective i got my parts barring the GPU for under 1100

[mortal grail]

Bit high tbh

[wicked oriole]

i regret not getting a 90 card but 4k is nice on the eyes

[wise wigeon]

a bit?

[mortal grail]

About 300 or so yeah

[fierce grove]

how much overpriced is it? im really interested because of it matches what i was gonna get anyway

is the case a hotbox? or is there anything wrong with that pc?

[fierce grove]

i doubt it’s ever gonna go back up

you think it is?

[wise wigeon]

never went up

its them prepping the bundle

oh so i actually have a good chance at it?

[wise wigeon]

i wouldnt say that lol

[fierce grove]

oh

[fierce grove]

but it will be up very soon?

if so i can prob be really quick about it

[wise wigeon]

no idea

[fierce grove]

i mean it is in the process of becoming up

so i would guess so

[wise wigeon]

they prob reserved pulse stock to go into the bundle

[fierce grove]

it says out of stock, are you sure it was never up?

[wise wigeon]

i woulda bought it if it was

i did not see a notification on my stock app

got it, and how often do new amd and nvidia gpus launcH?

every year, every 2 years?

cuz like i wanna upgrade and not pay hella in the future

Did he find one of those like scam pre listings where they don’t even have the gpu and send it out after is actually launched

[rigid sinew]

did anyone get a 9070 or 9070 XT ?

[astral inlet]

i feel like 900$ GPUs is directly proportionate to my lack of will power.

[rancid juniper]

Not sure, he didn't specify which site he bought it from

[idle flax]

Order shipped!!

[rancid juniper]

But either way a scam is a scam

[fierce grove]

lucky

[fierce grove]

nope, order cancelled twice

[rigid sinew]

awww man im so sorry

[idle flax]

Mine will be here tomorrow got lucky from the looks of it

[fierce grove]

yeah i’m actually pissed as hell because that was like my first ever experience with a gpu drop

that shi would have been fire

[rancid juniper]

@dusk knot yo, buy the 9070 XT from microcenter, it's a good upgrade over your 3080ti

They're still in stock + msrp

[fierce grove]

do you think they’d be in stock tmr?

[rancid juniper]

Good

[idle flax]

My first time was spending 1600 on a 3080’lol so this makes up
For that

[rancid juniper]

Doubt, that's why I pinged him

[rigid sinew]

cant speak for the company bc im not sure of all of the exact info - but ive been to makeup drops before , its like trying to get a limited edition lipstick , they have 50 in stock and the line outside wraps around the building ... thats what this feels like tbh

[opaque sedge]

@rancid juniper i’m abt to grab a fricking hammer…

[lone mango]

Nah they have stock but people are feining for cards rn

Nvidia got them hungry

[rancid juniper]

Dealllllll

[wise wigeon]

its like just microcenter, online was dry as hell

Ahh goddammit i shouldn’t have gotten that microcenter warranty then i wouldn’t be so tempted to break my 4070super

Should’ve made the three hour drive to have it today haha

[south sapphire]

So just placed order on the site…what’s this extra $8 charge (shipping was $12 so it’s not that)

[rancid juniper]

1.1k?

Wait on what exactly

https://tenor.com/view/sweats-gif-25346666

[south sapphire]

Stuff….motherboard, Ram and CPU

[rancid juniper]

Oh

[dusk knot]

9700xt....hmmmm

[south sapphire]

yea no GPU upgrade.

[opaque sedge]

Dude

[rancid juniper]

You've seen it all, it's that good, make... The... Jump

[south sapphire]

Waiting for prices to subside

[rancid juniper]

Just try AMD for once, you can always return it JP

Heh

[opaque sedge]

I can hear a voice telling me grab a hammer and break my 4070super and cash in my microcenter warranty

But i aint gonna do that

[south sapphire]

So are the Radeon GPU 1:1 compared with Nvidia

[opaque sedge]

Cuz i’m a good kid

I think

[south sapphire]

Like do they have a 5090 variant

[opaque sedge]

Nuh uh

[dusk knot]

Oh crap. Stop being so wallet friendly, AMD! Stop catering to our needs!

[wise wigeon]

no to both questions

[south sapphire]

So there strongest card is equivalent to 5080?

Comparably?

[wise wigeon]

no

[opaque sedge]

There’s speculation that this might be temporary pricing btw all just to release at msrp so its very possible they will rise up in price

[south sapphire]

Lower?

[opaque sedge]

Nah they’re only competing up to the 5070ti this gen

[south sapphire]

Ahh ok

[opaque sedge]

Last gen they competed upto the 4080/super

[south sapphire]

So basically if you want something better than 5070Ti, Nvidia is the only option

[wise wigeon]

i mean technically they;re doing that this gen too

[south sapphire]

So Nvidia has 4 cards right now right? (5070 5070Ti, 5080 and 5090)?

And how many AMD release?

[wise wigeon]

2 as of now

[south sapphire]

Guessing comparable to 5070 and 5070Ti

[opaque sedge]

Honestly its prolly for the best they didn’t claim the 9070xt to be as good or better than the 5080 cuz fanboys will def start to question inconsequential crap like “ok now show the rt performance”

[devout forum]

Holy I just realized something kinda crazy

[wise wigeon]

i mean its already 20% slower in RT than the 70 ti and generally 5% slower in raster

[devout forum]

Top-level DDR5 is getting close to DDR4 latencies at double the frequency

[south sapphire]

How is there raytracing and additional features compared to Nvidia? Is it competitive or is it more experimental?

[south sapphire]

Laymen’s terms?

[wise wigeon]

@opaque sedge so yes it would have been a poor decision to compare it to the 5080

[devout forum]

The new memory standard that's supposed to have higher CL numbers are getting to the level of the previous standard that had very low CL numbers

[south sapphire]

Does Radeon have any benefits over Nvidia besides price? Anything they offer that is unique or better than competition?

[devout forum]

Lower CL is more better

[wise wigeon]

er no

[south sapphire]

So sounds like there more tailored to people on a smaller budget?

[sage sluice]

theyre typically a bit more vram friendly at the mid range

[rancid juniper]

Always has been

[wise wigeon]

less smaller budget more price/performance conscious

[sage sluice]

generally better raster, worse AI crap and worse raytracing

to price that is

[wise wigeon]

not necessarily on the raster either

[south sapphire]

I don’t know much about them, but the AMD CPU I just bought isn’t far from the price of there GPU price ….only $120 difference

[sage sluice]

from price to performance?

[opaque sedge]

Wouldn’t say so exactly people on a budget are very likely going to be buying last gen hardware, amd is trying to push out value for money hardware

[wise wigeon]

i mean 6800xt vs 3080?

[south sapphire]

On the intel/nvidia side, no where near the case

[sage sluice]

generally

you can nitpick examples ofc

lol

[south sapphire]

I watched this cool video about how graphics work. Millions of views and still didn’t understand raster

Can someone explain it in a simple way lol

[wise wigeon]

7800xt and 3080 are still pretty close

[sage sluice]

i just wish intel could get their damn drivers together so the low end can be competent

[sage sluice]

why are you nit picking lol

[wise wigeon]

poor battlemage

[worn wave]

Raster is like raw gaming performance, excluding things like raytracing and upscalers

[south sapphire]

Can I share YouTube links here

[sage sluice]

all i said is, on average, as of recent, amd has done a better job at making pure raster more affordable than nvidia

[south sapphire]

https://youtu.be/C8YtdC8mxTU?si=yFya7BvUVblCITsF

Pretty neat video

Very informative if you understand the tech lingo

[wise wigeon]

it depends on the price you use

[sage sluice]

USD

fair point

[wise wigeon]

amd has some stinkers at msrp

[sage sluice]

yee

7900xt at msrp

blegh

[wise wigeon]

7900xt at 900 vs a 4070 ti super at 800

[sage sluice]

but those msrp are typically just there to get you to buy the other thing

[wise wigeon]

still msrp

[south sapphire]

Does Radeon have all the features of Nvidia GPU, albeit not as good but do they still offer the features (raytracing, ai, etc)

[sage sluice]

7800xt for example is pretty damn good value

[wise wigeon]

well right now

[sage sluice]

i mean what do you want me to say LMAO

[wise wigeon]

back when 3080s were available not really

[sage sluice]

500 dollars was still pretty good

[astral inlet]

why is there also~ no such thing as a gpu on sale right now

[south sapphire]

Does Radeon offer DLSS? DLAA? RT? AI?

[worn wave]

Raytracing and ai upscaling, yes. Not quite as good as Nvidia but the increased raster perf helps. Other AI workloads like genAI still favor Nvidia quite a bit I believe

[wise wigeon]

i mean its 550 now unfortunately

[worn wave]

AMD has FSR which is their version of DLSS

[sage sluice]

you say now like thats a reasonable argument

pretty much everything sucks rn

[south sapphire]

Will they ever be comparative to Nvidia or are they more like imitators and not innovators?

Don’t mean that in a rude way

[wise wigeon]

wegg trying to sell nitro plus XTX at 1200 dollars msrp

[sage sluice]

they definitely arent innovators, they just like making things a smidge cheaper

[worn wave]

Nvidia had a huge lead but AMD is catching up bit by bit

[sage sluice]

and grab the easy cash

as soon as they hold higher market share they love to go bananas

x3d is a great example of this

[worn wave]

aren't innovators
X3D and their mobile cpus/igpus would like a word with you

[south sapphire]

So I know this is a Newegg community but I did some research on the NE buyback program for GPU and read it was better to sell it privately

[wise wigeon]

nvidia sets the rhythm AMD attempts to match it, with varying success

[south sapphire]

Thinking of maybe doing that for when I changed my 3090 to a 50 series

[wise wigeon]

they did well enough in 30 series vs 6000 series

[worn wave]

Yeah trade in programs (from anyone, not just Newegg) are almost always worse than selling it yourself

[sage sluice]

their cpus are definitely more in line with innovating, but even then intel wasnt even doing anything

[worn wave]

(also it's fine to be reasonably critical of Newegg here, you're not gonna get banned or anything)

[south sapphire]

Would you say it’s a significant downgrade (less money) of avoiding the hassle of selling privately

[sage sluice]

now that nvidia stopped trying amd has pulled ahead thus far on value. none of these companies are trying to please customers, just make customers like them more than everyone else

[wise wigeon]

i mean issue is nvidia aint completely stagnating and actually do work hard on software compared to 14++++++ inteal

[south sapphire]

Like, are you losing out on significant funds by not selling yourself

[sage sluice]

i think newegg has a lot of issues that i very much dislike

[lone mango]

Sucks thats how they catch up but game is game lol

Next gen should be more in amds favor

[fresh timber]

ddr5 6000 cl18 when

[sage sluice]

true, but thats moreso their exit of the gaming market and more into raising stocks on AI

[lone mango]

People are fed up and there is more coming out about udna

If rocm picks up even more then nvidia has a problem

[wise wigeon]

well we thought that about 7000 sereis coming from 6000 series

you just never know

[sage sluice]

i just hope they both make each other give a s### at least enough to not screw over us as customers

[wise wigeon]

60 series should have a die shrink so maybe nvidia makes ground like the 40 series

[south sapphire]

Also, so I am swapping out motherboard, ram, and cpu…thanks to all of you for helping me out last night. I am having local shop help me out, when I get my old parts, can I still find out the make and model of motherboard, cpu, and ram from looking at it physically or should I screenshot my pc specs before exchanging out the components??

Hello @south sapphire! It appears that you're asking for help. Please ask again in the appropriate category so you can get faster help from people specializing in that field. Your question may not be answered here.

[sage sluice]

nvidia 6000 series is probably going to be a big advancement, and similarly priced as 5000 series

nvidia will either win being expensive or die trying

[wise wigeon]

an actual node change probably helps

[sage sluice]

and switch to full ai stuff

[south sapphire]

Thanks again for your help @wise wigeon last night man

[wise wigeon]

np

[sage sluice]

anywho, back to earlier, typically amd is better value in the midrange but you can go farther in performance with nvidia

[worn wave]

Nah the solution to more performance is clearly just give it more power

[south sapphire]

If I have PC questions, I might just come here. Just appreciate you guys taking the time to help me get everything. That CPU sold out last night but it was actually back in stock this morning

[south sapphire]

I see why you guys asked me if I was buying now lol

[wise wigeon]

the intel way

[sage sluice]

yeah i see stuff come and go within hours nowadays

intel hardware is legitimately insane

their software is just

[south sapphire]

What about CPU’s? Are they comparative to Intel

[sage sluice]

holy ass

[south sapphire]

Or is it the same thing with those too

Sounds like they might be better in that department

[fresh timber]

intel has quick sync

[sage sluice]

amd is definitely the winner rn in terms of performance, but i feel intel could make some moves if they used their brain a bit on their next big release

[worn wave]

They are better for the most part yeah. Intel has no X3d equivalent and for gaming x3d is king

[sage sluice]

they just need to mimmick some of x3d's architecture

[south sapphire]

I wonder if it’s patented

[fresh timber]

so what? slap more cache on their cpus kek

[south sapphire]

Maybe they can, but not legally

[fresh timber]

they can find a way not to infringe on the patent

[sage sluice]

all these companies are greedy mfs, so never show loyalty to the brand, just buy the better products

[fresh timber]

im loyal to the brands i have money in

Intel would have to make their own unique solution

[sage sluice]

500 bucks is pocket change to them

[south sapphire]

Yea I agree, it just sucks because like with me, if I wanted to upgrade GPU, I need to upgrade CPU, and if I do that, I have to upgrade motherboard to whatever is compatible and to make sense of it Ram and because GPU’s are bigger, would need a bigger case

It’s just wild how upgrading one component causes chain reaction of purchases lol

[sage sluice]

intels total value is, including marketshare and physical assets and the likes, like 90 billion dollars right now?

you paying money to them will not ever be noticable

[south sapphire]

There is a YouTube video showing the Nvidia offices

And yeah, they spent big time money on that

[sage sluice]

nothing crazy to their funding

nvidia could probably buy a city with how much money they have

[south sapphire]

Crazy big time money. Literally down to the style of windows on the ceiling and how and when it lets in how much light

[sage sluice]

nvidia is worth almost 3 trillion dollars

just try to rationalize that

[south sapphire]

Like someone once told me, just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.

[sage sluice]

i think their total net worth is closer to the realm of 3.5 trillion

[south sapphire]

But anyways, thanks again for your help last night ya’ll. Have a good night. Gonna go for a walk and game later. Really appreciate all the help

[mental yoke]

literally chip manufavturing

how can i make this window i can shoot lasers into smaller? hmmmm

[sage sluice]

to give an idea to this, the entirety of new york city sits between the realms of 10-14 trillion dollars

so buying 5 million dollar mansions is legit pocket change to them

[mental yoke]

well yea, people not understanding the exponential jump from million to billion to trillion is something

[south sapphire]

Can someone tell me what the $8 charge is

[mental yoke]

pre-auth possibly, not sure tho

Shipping was $12 so it’s not that

[mental yoke]

they do that sometimes to ensure funds will be accepted

[nocturne flicker]

It'd take 273.79 years to spend 1 billion USD if you spent 10k a day

[south sapphire]

And oh for an extra $2 I could have extra fast processing…I didn’t do it. Is that a significant difference?

[mental yoke]

no

[sage sluice]

a trillion is equivalent to one million individual stacks of one million dollars

[mental yoke]

its a scam 99% of the time

[south sapphire]

What is?

[mental yoke]

extra fast processing times

[devout forum]

Yyyyeah, it's more than a 7900 XT

[south sapphire]

Ahh

[mental yoke]

having "f you" money is a dangerous thing

[devout forum]

7900 XT goes for ~320 000

[south sapphire]

What’s that in American dollars?

[devout forum]

IDK man, I want to love the 9070 XT, but these prices are a tough sell...

[south sapphire]

Too expensive?

[nocturne flicker]

It'd take 27,378.51 years to spend 1 trillion dollars if you spent 100k a day

[devout forum]

1000 USD
But we also have 27% VAT

[sage sluice]

often times it even gives you more power than the law. australia is a great example of this

[mental yoke]

eveyrwhere is an example of that really 😄

[nocturne flicker]

The US is also an example of this

[sage sluice]

true but theyre a notable example, the US is absolutely not an exception

[nocturne flicker]

In America, if you have that much money you get the honor of being in charge of destroying the Federal gov't

[balmy solstice]

they're gonna get more expensive after first launch depending on the aib

[sage sluice]

i mean look at the firebombing that happened over a business not liking someone and going unpunished

[mental yoke]

the anime sutdio?

[wise wigeon]

A country

[mental yoke]

that was sad

[sage sluice]

a smaller one but a country for sure

[mental yoke]

a few of them

[wise wigeon]

Kyoani?

[sage sluice]

i pledge allegience, to the united states of nvidia

[devout forum]

double the price of a used 6900 XT for like 50% uplift according to GN

IDK man...

[nocturne flicker]

It is cheaper to just buy politicians. They'll do whatever you want for $1 million and a boot up the rear

[sage sluice]

thinking of a different case

one business trying to silence negative media

[wise wigeon]

And they’re dumb and old

[nocturne flicker]

Or dumb and moderately aged

[worn wave]

One manufacturer, unbuyable, with scalping and markups for all

[wise wigeon]

Average age is in the mid 60s to 70s ain’t it?

[nocturne flicker]

Probably. The House has the younger members

[sage sluice]

god i hate politicians. pretty much all the good ones cant participate because of how greedy ass companies do what they can to make sure they wont

[mental yoke]

politicians exist in other countries too

:gigabrain:

[worn wave]

Or their own party: see bernie sanders

[wise wigeon]

Yet somehow the majority are old as balls

[sage sluice]

they take pride in it ngl

[devout forum]

I might end up with what you have @wise wigeon

[nocturne flicker]

The Senators are all older than dirt. Or are copy paste corporate suits. Or morons. Or all three

[devout forum]

Or wait

[wise wigeon]

Wdym

7900xtx?

[devout forum]

DAMMIT wrong ping

[wise wigeon]

Haha

[devout forum]

I'm thinking more used 6900XT

[mental yoke]

to be fair, young kids do dumb things like stick their fingers in light sockets and eat detergent so its fair you should have a certain age. but yea there is a leaning towards old age in some democratic governments

[devout forum]

Cuz it's cheap for the 1440p perf it still has

[sage sluice]

i would really enjoy someone with a lot of bernies ideals in office but not a damn skeleton lol, someone younger

[mental yoke]

some governments just rotate you out. either peacefully or forcefully

[wise wigeon]

I mean who raised said kids lol

[mental yoke]

same people who raised those politicians

[devout forum]

Like IIRC they're still good for 80fps maxed out raster 1440p

[mental yoke]

🤷

[sage sluice]

politics are dumb, boom

i said it

ong

[mental yoke]

i was looking at the m3 ultra on that mac studio thingy

like 19k all kitted out :stare:

[nocturne flicker]

Young kids don't do stuff like go into a speech, praise Bush and Reagan, talk about being a CIA agent and being inspired by 9/11 to go over to Iraq while responding to a Republican speech as a Democrat

[wise wigeon]

Waste of resources, anarchy instead please

[devout forum]

@nocturne flicker what sort of framerates do you get at 1440p?

[nocturne flicker]

No clue

I am dum 1080p guy
