I don't think the 2080 card will drop that much, take the 1080 ti that didn't

did they ever hit msrp?

neon edge
#

on ebay in the uk 2080 ti start at £1400 and some are £1600

thats a rip off

#

Oh yes that's really good

fickle elbow
#

case is eh but yeah

That case has awful airflow but recommend adding 2x pwm 140mm fans intake

Can u reccomend better case

How muvh do you got for budget?

@onyx herald

onyx herald
#

My budget is 230 for a case ram and psu sooo?

#

USD btw

rose ledge
#

This is one I recommend

#

It has great airflow

#

This one too

onyx herald
#

I need a psu too

#

Like 550-650w

#

Lowest price best performance one

fickle elbow
#

phanteks one is good

#

that’s $60 plus ram is only like $65 and you can find a good psu for like 50-70 so you’ll be good

#

just get a better air cooler for the price

fickle elbow
#

arctic esports 34 duo is a good air cooler at $50

worn rose
#

usually the 34 duo is closer to $40, scythe has some better options at 50-60 like the fuma and mugen 5

#

Gammaxx 400 :DDDDD

worn rose
#

okay that thing looks like it came from 2012 and is lame

finite fjord
#

but I mean... $25 tho

worn rose
lusty harness
#

I bought the ID-Cooling SE-224-XT Basic for $25 the other day

#

The build quality and aesthetics flat-out stomp anything in that price bracket, I think; super sturdy with barely any way to flex the fins in transit unless you really try

#

Can't wait to actually build this new system and see temps

#

Sadly Gammaxx 400 appears to have gone up in price from...$19-21 or whatever it was a few months ago

Just lmao that’s all you had to say!!!

smoky cobalt
#

The fan on that cooler is ugly.

hollow prawn
#

but you can't argue with performance

serene plover
#

Scythe ninja 5 is good cooler for 60 around the same performance as nhd15

hollow prawn
#

if you can find it at that price

serene plover
#

Yea

hollow prawn
#

also less perf than d15 because the fans are capped at a lower rpm

#

but better noise

#

it is a really good cooler tho

Yes

what's the most you'd pay for a 1080 ti hybrid these days. i have a 1070 hybrid rn but i have an itch to upgrade but don't want to go balls out. looking at used cards and could use a little guidance. thanks all

grim talon
#

@carmine dust if you’re looking to upgrade. 1080 ti won’t be worth imo. Wait until Nvidia 3000 series comes out so you can get a 3070 or 3080

carmine dust
#

what kind of price point can we expect though?

#

i see these 1080 ti's around 500

grim talon
#

Around 500 will probably be 3060-3070 range

carmine dust
#

maybe you're right, i should probably just wait. would like a 3080 super or equivalent

worn rose
#

if you try you can get a 1080 ti closer to 400

carmine dust
#

im trying to get my hands on a hybrid card, the temps just stay so much lower

warm bane
#

400$ is the going rate for 1080 ti. Maybe 50$ more for hybrid

Wow

#

Nice deal

Just got no money tho

It sold 😞

I really was aboutta get it

Are there usually good deals when new GPUs come out? (Aka RTX 3000)

i’m thinking about getting a 2060 super for my first pc build i’m not super experienced n quite frankly not computer savvy at all any suggestions on getting something different?

hushed plank
#

If you go to Dunkin Dounts and like coffee DM me and I'll sell you a free drink coupons for $2.00 a piece

frigid patio
#

@harsh crypt the general consensus is to wait until next gen gpus come out, also depends on your budget

harsh crypt
#

i’m willing to spend up to 400$

#

@frigid patio

frigid patio
#

For $400 you can get a 2070, and if you can wait for 3000 series then wait

harsh crypt
#

when does 3000 series come out

frigid patio
#

Probably September

harsh crypt
#

oh then i most likely will wait and save up for something more pricey

frigid patio
#

Good idea

neon edge
#

i would save up and get a 3000 series, i wouldnt get a 2000 series ,lol

Its kinda too late by now

just like a bargain

Gonna lose a bit on the 2080

How good is the bargain? Because that card isn't that expensive to begin with

It's only 144hz

@mild jetty what do you mean?

mild jetty
#

Oh wrong channel Lmao

#

Stupendous deal

wide trout
#

Yeah, but it's 30 dollars more

#

Also, have you ever felt the difference between monitors in the 1-6ms gtg latency?

#

There is no perceptible difference, as long as it's under like 6, it's fine.

#

The one I posted also has freesync

hollow prawn
#

Yes

wide trout
#

And does gsync fine on my 1080

hollow prawn
#

Ignore g2g as long as it's like 1ms vs 4ms

#

30ms g2g and we have a problem

#

Otherwise nah

finite fjord
#

or just never use g2g because g2g sucks and says nothing about the display

#

c2c or b2b says a lot more

hollow prawn
#

Yes

#

Except manufacturers will continue to cheat on them

#

Like mprt

#

Supposed to be better

#

But they still measure 20% to 80% not entire thing

shell sierra
#

Is 3 fan gpu better than any other amount?

worn rose
#

99.9% of the time yes but just because it has more fans doesnt always mean better

shell sierra
#

Ah well I’m thinking of a 2080 super

worn rose
#

how much?

finite fjord
#

ideally just wait until 3000

worn rose
#

yeah that its never a good idea to buy high end stuff before new products launch

shell sierra
#

Nope I don’t have the money right now anyway 😂

#

I’ve got enough for the gpu and cpu

#

But not for it all

#

Btw what mother board should I be looking at for a ryzen 7 3800x 2080 super and 32gb of ram?

#

(4 sticks)

finite fjord
#

if you dont have the money for all of it then probs wait. Esp on CPU/GPU

shell sierra
#

Yea I’m not buying it rn

worn rose
#

ya dont spend all ur money if u cant afford it

shell sierra
#

Well it’s not like I have bills to pay yet lol

fair beacon
#

the prices for all of those will prob go down in a few months. Even the ryzen 7 3800x was on sale about a month ago for $30 less i think. If you dont have enough for it right this second for the whole build id suggest to just wait. Youll get a lot more.

#

up to you friend, gigabyte has 3 years of warranty tho compared to xfx's 2 year warranty

thick badge
#

my question is quality and performance if anything

thorn plinth
#

not sure. review wise its kinda hard to determine since 22 reviews at 5 eggs for xfx and 203 reviews of gigabyte at 3 eggs

#

the gigabyte is slightly higher clocked for better performance

thick badge
#

i saw, but im thinking the bad reviews were when it first came out and all the kinks are gone... hopefully....

#

the xfx is also longer but dont know if that will effect my case much

the ryzen comes with a cooler too

btw guys im lookin to build a whole new desktop, but trying to get it under 1200, closest i can get is 1340 with amazon and newegg combined, rtx 5700 is the gpu, cpu is amd ryzen 8 core but i may as wel go to 12 core so i dont have to change that anytime soon or in the future really, (i will be using my computer for gaming + streaming, and video editing), 16gb ram oloy, whatever the cheapest one i could find, dont care for the company as long as its a 3200 or 3400 mhz stick, i dont really get the difference between that, and a monitor, i dont care for 4k resolution, i dont believe theres any real difference between the 1080 and 4k, ive seen my friends computer, im fine with just chillin at 1080p as its the norm... this cost also includes an asus motherboard with wifi/bluetooth because well, i may need to have wifi in my new place if i cant link to the router due to reasons

can a audio card be used with a PCIE 2.0 x 16 slot on a mother board ?

Possibly

If the audio card is PCIe (x16, x4, x1) it will work fine in an x16 slot. If it’s just that normal PCI (aka x8(?)) it won’t work

bro i feel like in literally every comment thread in a pc build related post

there is the same exact argument

#

intel vs amd

#

intel good for gaming

#

amd good for price

like honestly shut up

this info has been in every post thread i have ever been on that concerned anything pc related

and its really annoying

im sorry i just had to say this

I get where you're coming from but at least here 99% of the time people are just joking around cause its basically a meme at this point. Both are good, get what you want

our consensus is 2000$ build = intel good
<1500$ build = amd better

Tbh a 5600xt perfs only slightly worse then a 1080. Not noticable difference and it's $280 new. $560 plus two $95 waterblocks from Bykski so $190 for water blocks. About $750 or so new for about that perf if you can even utilize the dual GPU config. Or just a new 2080S and a $100 Bykski block for much better gaming perf due to lack of proper mGPU GPU support.

I just got a ASUS ROG Strix GA15DH, I thought it would be the perfect box for photoshop and lightroom. It arrived I was put aback when I realized that storage is all but null. I want to add 2, 3.5 inch SATA hard drives 4 TB and 8 TB. It turns out that it's really expensive to return the thing and the tech told me that it will only accept a 1 and 2 TB SSD. Does anybody know if I will be just pushing myself deeper in debt if I get an external drive ?

It sucks that EggHead won't work with me. Even though I want to get a more expensive box. sigh

might pick that up instead of a 1660s to upgrade my PC ThinkingEgg

final scarab
#

Might aswell wait for 3000 series at this point

grim talon
#

but, will anything in the 3000 series be that cheap?

final scarab
#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

#

No way to tell.

#

But the 2060 will still be around then so if you've waited this long already...

grim talon
#

i mean, im not planning on upgrading for a fat second so

#

I'll wait and see

final scarab
#

So ya, might as well wait

worn rose
#

id just wait for next gen and snag a 2060/s/70 for cheap when people upgrade

grim talon
#

used? ehhhh

final scarab
#

Don't you flip pcs lmao

grim talon
#

im all about used parts in my PC flips lol

#

but in my personal build

#

idk

#

just built with all new parts

#

kinda want to keep that trend going

#

idk why

final scarab
#

Might still snag a good deal on a new one, you never know

grim talon
#

yeah, if i find a good enough deal on a used one, why not

#

anda good deal on a new one is even better

wide trout
#

ive only ever used used pc parts in my builds

#

except for my last custom loop, that was all new

supple sluice
#

i do both, depending on what the better deal is

#

i'm leaning towards a used GPU if i can find one, but i might have to go new

#

ANC on these is pretty mediocre tho, so dont get these if you really want to drown out sound.

#

altho the ANC still works fine

#

Ahhhh should I?
