i signed up for the EVGA notification back in October
lttstore.net is pog
my friend just got 3070 from it
y
Just got hte email today but it's not associated with my EVGA account
today is the 21st day of the 21st year of the 21st century
plus I already have the card
overpriced
after i told them in oct
but rgb

thoughts
500
bad
hm
$500 gets you a 3070
3070 doesnt exist though
honestly 1080ti fe is the nicest looking card i have ever seen
I like the design of the Ampere cards tbh
eh idk 30 series is really good
weak
i like the low poly design
Yeah you shouldn't be getting a 1080ti unless you can get it for less than $350 which you defo won't
might as well look for 2070s at this point since it doesnt have the xx80 tax on it and is basically same card but with rt support
titan xp looks cool
Yeah anything with 80 carries the premium always
2070 has a tax too since they've been discontinued :/
better than the 30 series tax
Still overpriced right now
Tbh if you only playing at 1080p a 1070ti would do you fine and can be picked up for fairly cheap
i play 1080p for now and my 1050 ti is chillin
I mean, even a 980TI still does 1080p pretty well LOL
im buying a titan x
nice
Only problem with a 980ti is power draw
OH yeah for sure
That is not a good idea
I was surprised how relevant it still was though
and yeah vintage imo 2070s>>>>>>>1080ti
titan tax is MASSIVE
isnt the first titan still like
selling for 300
Yeah I've seen it for that much
insanity
Sometimes more
how come
am actually planning to get it just for decoration 
For everything we have just been saying
Massive power draw and bad value
true
yeah its rly bad value
I want the i-craft one
Just look for a 1070ti
show
that is too NSFW to post here
done
isn't that the Manga card or something?
yes
Heh
I am are have severe weaboo syndrome
owo
why are the star wars titan xp so expensive
I think you can show front, not backplate though
Because they limited edition
would actually buy just to have on shelf
^^^
^^^
Yeah it's a nice ornament
^^^^
hey tux
Sup
agreed
that white one is so secccccccy
Only problem is the looks don't match the performance not anymore anyway

like 700
Bruh $700
I mean it's Star Wars
time to ask if someone will buy me one
start a onlyfans
haha yea start yeah good one haha yes
this is not leaving the box

she sellin 
i mean if you buying that card with the box, what is the point of using
Lol
Sara your mother about to make a purchase
anyways
guys, will the RTX 3080 ti ever come out this year/
those star wars cards are sexy
3080ti was never guaranteed to exist :p
how much 
i thought there were leaks about 3080 ti tho
wow
leaks and rumors
And Titan xp stars wars will go in my collection as first Titan I ever owned
3050 ti 3050 and 3080ti are confirmed tho
Lol
we dont know if its even gonna come out
nothing more or less
But how much you be willing to pay for Titan xp?
when?
Leaks are leaks
yo when does Microcenter restock and do they have 3070s at all?
i think nvidia should drop new gpus in q1
Just because AIB's have UPC codes for a product
we just know that they will come out we dont know when
doesn't mean it will ever exist
what do u think its worth 
i mean
There were leaks for 3080ti like 4 months ago by lenovo, and then Lenovo said no, not existing
they are mad desperate now
@hollow grail you agreed to feed me today, not spend more on computer parts!
Oh hmm I bought it for 650 (seller’s mistake)
im just asking because, im buying a new pc, but idk if i should wait for the 3080 ti or just get the 3080, i have no problem with waiting, but its just if the 3080 isnt a thing then i dont want to have waited for nothing you know
Which it was worth 1,600 to 950
1,950**
New brand titan xp is higher priced than before
well
i mean
i think waiting would be the better option
unless u need a pc now right now
yeah i guess ill do that
I will be willing to trade for 3080 ti
or u can do what i did
i dont need it right now
which is build a pc but have a placeholder gpu
starve
like gt 710
but like that will result in like a 30$ loss
but like i needed a new computer so my case was different
Right now worth is 2,300 I think @hollow grail
i think u should just stick to waiting
ill prolly end up just grabbing a 3090
half that
ive actually been thinking on doing that, im thinking of buying all the parts except the gpu, i currently have a GTX 1080 ti and i was thinking of just putting that graphics card for now, and then when the 3080 ti comes out i just take it out and replace it
wait
then yea ur set
but then
try to get next gen parts
like ryzen 5k or wait for intel 11th gen if ur intel type dude
Half? Hmm you still want to buy it?
im thinking of getting the Ryzen 9 5900x
i would hold onto the 1080 ti till the rtx 40xx
unless you aiming for 1440p
wait 4000 series?
ye
1080 ti is a great card
I mean, 4xxx is literally just a pipe dream right now
Tbh it is just be a paper launch
i think i could wait or something, its just because my dad said that if i bought that 3080 ti card when it comes out, he wont get me a 4k series or 5k series, so he said ill have it for a while, so i guess i can wait and get a 4k series, but how do you guys know it will release next year?
We don't. it's not even a thing yet
There are rumors floating around about new architectures, that's it
1080 ti should hold up for a few years lol
A few years? That depends on the resolution. It's already 4 years old
1080p? Sure
1440p, not so much
ik but its just i wanna experience them new stuff like ray tracing etc. and plus i want to buy a 4k monitor and i dont think the 1080 ti can handle it that well
Nope
oh well
go 3080 then
3080=god
Ye if you don't want to wait.
3090=god killer
well 3080ti
yeah but i said ill wait anyways
Wait a bit, may or may not happend
like a few months
its likely tho
Well, a 3080 SOMETHING is guaranteed
weve had top end Ti cards for generations
Super, TI, who knows what it will actually be
3090 ti? tf
i honestly dont think super could happen but hey we dont know yet
3090 is already pushed to the limit
i don't think they could push even futher
true true
unless they push the Cudas cores count
for people who needs to use cuda
also i don't think they would call it of 3090 ti if that happens...
what do you think it would be called
idk, i am not a nvidia employer

though 3090 is a card more oriented for heavy vram usage type of people
more of a budget workstation card
lmao vintage can u sanity check this build for me
i can do that
i would get a better GPU to match the rest of the system
Jeebus
but yeah its good
could save money by going b550 tho
and less pricey ram
they like the ram
AMP still better
they want tridentz
wait, is this a client?
yikers dude
rev df is cheaper than leadex 3
what is ?
@little osprey btw I never really count MIB in the price
so I'd say leadex still cheaper
leadex is 144 usd rn
is it diff on newegg ?
Yes
yes
silly pcpp
thats why i linked
lol
would rather pay $30 more for leadex 
for now
ew mf120
if u have better ideas for those id love to hear tbh
gelid stellas, enermax squa, kaze fles rgb
most of the time i just get noctuas
mf120 are one of the worst performing fans tbh
also i would go for 5600x over 3700x if ur gaming
and u could replace that x570 with a b550 unless ur tryna do sum heavt oc
they can get 3700x rn
pilot-e is cheaper than sn750 as well
vintage helped me last night and said corsair was good
also dramless
it has hmb..
but u also have a 3070 in it
So?

they already have the card
3070 is easier to get
ohh makes sense
yeah literally threw this together in 10 mins for a friend
ive done it in less
just seeing if there were any glaring issues
id just say the fans
nah, it's fine

fair enough
and yeah momo i feel you on the mushkin but
its for my friend
i want them to have a good drive at least 
not that the helix isnt good
you do love yur hard drives
but id prefer to give them the sn750
helix-L also exists
asuka langley soryu.
i would have given them one of my 960s
sn750 good
he already has the 3070 u say ?
ye
ill make a bit personal changes and ill send it, u can use some ideas if youd like. the list u have is fine
but is x570 really necessary here ?
ANyone got a 3080 build?
not really, but its a good board nevertheless
eh u could replace it with a cheaper board and see no difference lol
She knows
in performance
i know lmao
i know im just sayin 
This is what lili wants

so this is what lili buys
lili u gonna be changing the fans tho right ?
omg those enermax ones lol
squa is dope
im sure theyre great but god they look awful
check out gelid stella
yeah i saw those
Cooler master is 60 CFM at 31 dba, how is it bad?
looks like they get rebranded by everyone and their cousin
Reason: Bad word usage
Reason: Bad word usage
bruh.
Reason: Too many infractions
garbage noise normalized performance @muted patio
as well as rifle bearing
its not that great compared to other bearings
such as dual ball bearing
id rather not have jet engines in my pc (exaggeration)
but even then they will displace barely any air
due to the garbo blade design
Well, that depends on your use case
wdym ?
they literally have poor air desplacement in general..
they're also very loud
better options like gelid stella exist at a much cheaper price
unfortunate
u will be missed 
will he tho?
imagine playing genshin impact
dunno what that means
sadge
@sullen spoke and @hollow grail hour 41 i think. ive lost count.

ive got the (vietnamese) lyrics memorised now
also why when I go to lili.g*y it says that I need to sign into something
some Yunohost portal
...can you un-hide it so I can access your site?
just add /site to the url
ok
nice
i should prolly move my site
but itll prolly get dropped soon anyways
i just use that url for projects and some other services
move where?
different domain
idk prolly one of my several
are the gigabyte 3080s any good?
noted
found one for relatively cheap
guess not tho
also @fossil halo rgb fusion is stinky
aorus xtreme is good too
maybe a strix card?
im not making you do [EXPLETIVE DELETED]
u are forcing me at gunpoint
why arent the FE cards on newegg?
looks like they are only on the nvidia website
and ordering from there can be hard sometimes
Yes
alright
Yes rgb fusion is ass can confirm
Rgb fusion is the worst thing to come out of gigabytes butt hole
RGB period is the worst thing ever
Not debatable
rgb bad
pride flag made from rgb good
arghargharghargh wifi is out again
there we go
who is BlueTive and why hey sendin me a friend request
Reason: Bad word usage
I fricking hate scalpers
agreed
Like why would someone that doesnt even intend to use a product buy it
and why the hell do people support that BY BUYING THEM
because they are have big dumb
Like instead of just telling their kid sorry couldnt get you the ps5 instead they pay double the price for something that will be obsolete in a year
i dont think kids that want a ps5 are gonna understand that
well if theyre like kids kids
not teens
yeah its pretty stupid
fock scalpers man
Like if you really want a ps5 or an xbox then literally just wait a couple months
Like some of these parents arre like willing to pay whatever it takes to get their kid their ps5 instead of saying when it gets back in stock ill buy you it
i find it so cringe that some ppl on amazon are trying to scalp but the products are in stock, like you go on amazon and you see a product and in the prices you see [new] 300$ [used] 549$
at that point just build a pc tbh its gonna be better at that price range
learn something for your kids
or buy one from nzxt or redux
yeah that was exactly what I was going to say
nZxT cRiNgE
the issue with buying nzxt prebuilts is that you have to use a nzxt case
Like if you build it yourself then you choose exactly what you want and it will last a lot longer and it can be a learning experience
yeah but the other companies are trashier
redux is fine though
a sacrifice nonbuilders are willing to make
nzxt isnt even good at building computers tho
and their support is awful
theyre better than other prebuilt companies
not rly
oh ive never heard of them,
they just use oem parts
xotic is expensive now sadly
but i used to use them all the time
smaller business so got hit hard by shortages
:(((
wow
rly unfortunate tbh
cool, nobodycares
that is true
no
▶️ 5. We all love tech, but we understand that you may want to talk about something else. If so, please avoid discussing controversial and sensitive topics such as politics or religion.
go to #politics, oh wait
cmon
oh ok that makes sense
but yeah rebel i wouldnt get nzxt at all
ok then
redux is good
yeah
ok
i mean really
most of my systems are technically dell prebuilts 
ask one of ur friends it will probably be cheaper
if u have any friends who build pcs
no because your friends dont have system integrator stock

yeah
yea
because its better than paying scalp
im getting a mac
its coming today
my friend said that macs are good for gaming
is that true
no
he said i gcould get 900 fps in fortnite
ok you are just trolling now
lmfao
i got a free mac from my dads work
m1
its coming today
pretty clutch bc i dont have a laptop otherwise 😂
is big sur good
no lmao
bruh
i can
it will be more of a gaming pc than my pc rn 😂
gt 710 gang
is spotify down rn
im on the canadian site not the us
i just want to make sure i’m not oversimplifying this and thus getting it wrong, but a better cpu with more cores and faster speeds will mean putting out the same work as a lower end chip using less power and generating way less heat right?
what app is it that you want to be able to run on it? @hazy mulch
I mean it could generate a lot more heat.
well rn im using a ryzen 3 3100 and running multiple instances of CAD softwares so its being pushed to basically crashing my pc
but im thinking if i upgrade to a 5600 it will be better
yeah cad software can be demanding if it is super complex
not necessarily less heat. more cores = more heat
keep in mind that im using a velka 3
a 5600x would be a huge improvement
But faster performance more work done
aight
the program is called softplan, its a 3d architectural program. here is the requirement list. This chart is the MINIMUM recommended computer, SoftPlan will run on some lesser computers and of course a more capable computer would be better:
Processor 2.4 GHz dual core 1.6 GHz quad coreor2.4 GHz dual core
Video Card see link(will send the video card info)
Input Device 2 button mouse 2 button integrated pointing device
Operating System Windows 8 64-bit
System RAM 2 GB
Dedicated Video RAM 512 MB
Program Installation Requirements 10GB of free hard drive space, DVD drive
HOw many watts is that power supply?
yeah you should be way above those specs with these laptops
they are both good but let me see if I can find a cheaper model
but both of those laptops are good
I think personally id lean towards the gigabyte one but I am not too sure on their build quality
oof
why
dont buy laptop right now
yeah
They are saying i should get at least a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2xxx series card.
wait for a 3000-series laptop to come out
with rtx 3000
am high and thought it was my heavy laptop, it was my light one so i overestimated force needed to pick it up and ended up tossing it like 3 feet in the air
lmao
just checked the website and yes it supports ryzen 5th gen with a bios update
ah good then go for it
not my fault you are high instead of feeding me but ok
next paycheck gon b goneded with this upgrade oof
also yunohost SLAPS
dm address ill get u mcdonalds 
16gb of ram is starting to show as not enough too lmao
starting to show as the minimum*
@hazy mulch if you need a laptop now I would say either of those laptops are fine, the screen looks like its better on the aorus 5. the aorus 5 has a 144hz panel while the msi one has a 120hz
no i mean for what i do its not enough
but if you can wait, id wait for a rtx 3000 laptop
i constantly get messages from the programs that im out of available ram
i do on my pc
it seems to be down
on downdetector theres hella reports too
not for me
then again ive been listening to the same song for 42 hours now
wait for them to come out so that turing laptops cost less
been listening to this song for 42 hours now
"thin
@fossil halo
spotify is confirmed to be under an outage right now
LMAO
for whoever asked
held in RAM for hours now
lenovo not selling rn?
msi always first but also always worst
@hazy mulch can it wait a few months?
LOL
Thanks for letting me know about that. really appreciate that inside info, its a work related purchase so not too concerned with the price just want to make sure that one was not a lesser quality or something, thanks for sending that link, would you say that the rtx3xxx is much better than the 2xxx series
ah then yeah I can send you a way better one
can make do woith the current set up but would like to make the swap in the near future
I was looking for a cheaper one
3060 = 2080s on laptops
what is work willing to pay for lol
3000-series's lowest offering this generation was better than 2000-series's highest offering last generation
do they have 3080 ones out?
yeah
LMAO
so that appeals espically cause of the 1tb
and its guaranteed pcie
get this to pog hard
INTEL CELERON LMFAOOOO
so its mega fast
wiw
one i sent is best if work will just cover whatever
that is insane
3080 laptop
lol self employed but is a taxable write off
oh lmfao
that probably has like 2 hrs batterly life while gaming
o oof
and weighs 100 kgs
prolly dont need a laptop then
yeah battery life isnt good on gaming laptops
if ur going to be using the battery a lot
i get like 5 hours from mine
at least its portable tho
overall just want to make sure that I wont need to buy another for a few years
i only trust clevo laptops to be well cooled tbh
I get 1-2 hours on mine 
everything else is sus
well thanks for your time! really appreciate the advice
id tell you to just get a desktop
and a thnkpad
^
will likely wait until end of feb/march by the sounds of it- need the portability to take it to the job site etc.
like dont plan to use it as a laptop
they get hot as hell tho. Def get a laptop cooler.
bad ones do
best gaming laptop for the money
I'm giving side eye to my garbage gaming laptop from 2011
i dont tell people to buy bad products so its not a concern
gross
all of them do if you dont put them in the right place (cloth surface for example)
gross
that thing was throttling as soon as I hit the power button
my clevo never hit above 60c
oh wow
and it was on a comforter all the time
impressive
pog 300 hz
but thats because i overclocked it
maxed that mf out
i think i literally got like 40% better perf
my rtx 2060 mobile in my gaming laptop only ever got up to like 65c
but the cpu was like ooogaaaa and was sitting at 100C when playing
my 2080 laptop: helo
fr that one gets kinda toasty
like 80c
on stock?
apparently 3mbps wifi is enough for the average american household
||well, according to ajit pai||
8k footage walks in
how much storage does 1 second of 8k footage take
a 15 second tik tok boutta be a gb 😂
i have to convert any video i take on my phone to 720p before i send to discord
lol
is a 450W PSU enough to power a my budget built in mind?
what build?
depends on parts
my friend's 450w can power a 3600 with a 2080 no problem so probably
hah
that psu gonna die
he has actually never ran into any problems with it
and if ur getting a 450w psu get a damn good one
ayo?
its white rated btw
gross
not even bronze
^
probably lol
you should tell what parts are on that build
mainly cpu and gpu
galaxy note 7 type beat
and the power bill is gonna be crazy
its been like that for more than a year now
cuz white rated
AC/DC
wow
i know
respect for that psu
im gonna drop the build link rn
im using a 650w for 3700x and gt 710 
i mean to be fair its for a 3060 in the future
he keksploded
still it will be overkill lmfao
probably yeah
yes
i kinda want to see how far it can go before it fries all of his parts
lmao
uh
that psu is fine
theres the build @ripe wedge
pls dont tell me ur buying that gtx 1650 for $450
B550 DS3H also cheaper
no im waiting for prices to go down
ah
ryzen 3 3100
also

just get a mp34 500gb
i remember they were like 180
its like $10 more
lmao
B550 DS3H also cheaper
^
im putting my most used programs on the m.2 and getting an additional SATA 500gb ssd for the rest
so u have to get ur own fans
or get a P300
yea
that m.2 isnt worth it tho for 256gb
i already have fans
then ur chilling
literally
LOL i thought i was the only one who saw that
but is that 450W enough tho?????
my laptop with more demanding parts only has a 400w external PSU
you will be fine
i think
lemme check actually
it is good enough
the estimated power said around 270-280W so...
im just making sure it doesnt go chernobyl on me
id get a different model tho
maybe like a CV450
palm reveal
yea the pins are missing from some gpu cables, its normal but old design
looks good, but I would get a different PSU and a 4x8 kit of ram at the same speed
Phanteks AMP maybe?
sure i will look into that rq
anyone else have the missing pins on their psu?
my palm is sexy as hell and you cant tell me otherwise
what ya mean pins
which ones
you mean cable?
the literal pins in the psu cables
like on the 24 pin?
The 24 pin often has a pin or two missing
sometimes they have purposely missing
Redundant grounds
makes sense
grounding is important
so that makes it more like a 22-pin, no?
normal
hand reveal
thats normal
sexy hand
bro?
there is only 1 pro of living in the uk and its that u will never have problem with stock well for the most
looks at my name
Do I look like a bro to you?
and its the same on some of the PCIE cables
ok good
the 6 pin is missing 2 because molex is 4 holes.... and 6-2=4, so 2 pins are missing, i think its normal
1 cable for each hole
4=4
what 6 pin?
some more expensive ones may have another pin missing for more efficient grounding
i think he means part of the PCIe 6+2
my molex psu molex cable
Molex, oh
full modular is better if you dont care about price
cuz you are 100% using the 2 that are stuck in there forever
Yeah but good modular PSUI's aren't budget friendly
people with dual PSU builds be like
when do yall think the gpus will be back to normal price? the 16 series in specific
a few months
thats almost a few months
2 at most if we are lucky
damn
well
Well, nVidia told AIB's to raise the price on the 1000 series too
according to demand
damn i just need a cpu and gpu and my build is done
This was back in July TBH
i have a strix 1050ti laying under my bed haha
ill give $130 for ur 1050 lmao
im autistic and even I understood that was a joke
LOL
xd
ohhh @muted patio that worked with the random crashing getting rid of ezoc
yea
ok send the gpu to me when u feel like
Sweet!
i seen on pcworld magazine ram is gonna be going up in price drastically cause of something to do with samsung and tariffs ?
why did you downgrade your cpu?
also get WD Blue, not seagate
everything is going up in price, shouldn't be drastically though





tho
