Anything better than ventus

[high radish]

Ventus is big no

One of worse looking and worse quality gpu

[grand orbit]

so does my friend its good

ventus bottom tier

[high radish]

So his case and fans sux then lol

[lean briar]

Is the new lancool 3 meta

That case and strix gpu

[grand orbit]

strix gpu is a waste of money usually

lancool 3 hasnt released yet afaikl

[high radish]

Strix is best

[lean briar]

Yeah but looking at reviews

I think its good

[lean briar]

[high radish]

Strix gang

I wish I could get 2nd Gundam Monitor

[flat junco]

Desk smells like a pumpkin latte ✅

[lean briar]

White or blck builds?

[jolly inlet]

I'm anti RGB in general, blacked out looks best to me

[high radish]

I'm not fan of circling lights all around but white with some light color looks amazing

[slow sluice]

https://tenor.com/view/money-burn-cash-shoveling-gif-5348644

[high radish]

I mean I don't paying attention aesthetics on my own gaming build but I do pay attention on my working PC couse it's in my workplace and it must be beautiful couse I'm fashion designer lol

[slow sluice]

Fashion design needs that much cuda?

[high radish]

Mostly not actually lol but have to 3d modelling things and it's heavy

Also doing few things parallel so pc being under load enough

Better PC = faster work = more finished work in day = more pay lmao

[light holly]

yall be makin it really hard to not buy a 3080

[jolly inlet]

https://tenor.com/view/kermit-darkside-star-wars-evil-innerme-gif-13048146

[light holly]

Out of the 2 amazon cards listed (newegg one is OOS)... which one should I go with?

I think I saw someone mentioning TUF being a better model?

But, I know the Trio is popular

[fleet marlin]

Suprim is more like Strix level, I wouldn't say gaming z/X is.

[grand orbit]

Gaming x/z trio is strix level

[light holly]

I meant Zotac. The Trio is OOS

Where?

[jolly inlet]

TUF over Trinity any day

Zotac "forgot" to put thermal pads on some model 3080s lol

[light holly]

I see.

[light holly]

ok, yeah I believe I am going to grab it. Although, it looked like there was a white strix 3080 12gb? I'm just not seeing it.

[jolly inlet]

That white strix went oos

It's only third party scalpers over $1100 now

[light holly]

ah ok

IDK if worth mentioning but it seems buying the TUF 3080 12gb also comes with Ghostwire: Tokyo/Doom: Eternal/Doom Eternal: The Ancient Gods Part One & Part Two

[slow sluice]

Wait, if it's a work computer why did you pay for the GPU

[light holly]

I did it. lol

I'll probably just wait til 50 series now.

[jolly inlet]

Getting a high end GPU now we're probably fine for a good while unless you upgrade to 4k high refresh later

[jolly inlet]

Expense reimbursement?

Tax deduction if not

[high radish]

I were looking for white strix 3080 actually but it was unicorn back in last year

ended up buying white strix 3090

[normal tiger]

If these were $20 dollars apart, should I get the 3070ti ($20 higher)?

[fleet marlin]

For me I'd probably take the MSI, but actually sort of a tough decision even if we count putting a nice undervolt on the 70 ti to counter it's higher wattage, partly from the gddr6x

[slow sluice]

I'd also go with the msi

[normal tiger]

Ah I see, yeah I'm not familiar with the quality of the types of gpu's

okay great, ty all

[grand orbit]

Nah, also there's almost deff a cheaper 3070

[normal tiger]

Yeah at this rate, I should keep waiting, was really ready to buy the msi one tbh

[grand orbit]

You in the us?

[jolly inlet]

If you decide to wait at this point you're looking at a December-ish launch for 40 series. AMD 7000 series should be out before that, around September-October.

[normal tiger]

Yeah I’m in the US, and alright for sure

[fleet marlin]

Nvidia wants to hold back 40 series, but I figure 7000 series will influence that.

[normal tiger]

cant wait xD

[steel wren]

most likely

october will be a month filled with tech, what a time to be alive 😄

I'll watch this when I go to sleep... Literally

[jolly inlet]

They're definitely not videos to watch before bed if you're actually interested in the content, but great sleep aids

[azure pond]

@silent rampart they've been $800 consistently recently

[silent rampart]

oh ok

[prisma rover]

Me again for the last time lol!
Iam getting me this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/125058259597?epid=4051542538&hash=item1d1e0d9a8d:g:pxcAAOSwis1hwW4V
But I need (want) to upgrade my RAM.

It seems this would work but I wonder if I "could do better" for the same price or up to like 150-200$ And would the difference be notifcable??

[stoic crest]

That kit will do just fine

[prisma rover]

Dang. I suppose it doesnt mean 16gb per slot?:D

[fleet marlin]

I really doubt this new of a laptop would be limited to 16GB (total).

[prisma rover]

Is there a way to confirm when the notebook will arrive? 😄 I still like it, I feel that 16gb would be good either way

[jolly inlet]

16gb is still plenty unless you're doing really intense games or keep 50 browser tabs open at all times

I'm starting to feel the need for 32gb personally. That'll probably be my last upgrade on this platform.

[stoic crest]

^

all legions supports 32 gigs, it's just some confusion happening

[grave delta]

Dual rank gives reasonable gaming performance benefit as well

2x16 b-die for $200 in a $3k gaming setup makes sense

No reason to cheap out on rev.e or worse

[fleet marlin]

Talking about a $1400 laptop then Forks pops in: B-DIE B-DIE.

[grave delta]

No excuses

[prisma rover]

I found the model number and googled and some sites said 16 and some 32 with the same model number lol! But agreed and thank you!

[fleet marlin]

The HP V10 stuff was $150 or $160 earlier today on a lighting deal.

[grand orbit]

If going 3070 would just get this yeah but tuf 3070 ti is nowhere near it price wise so idk where you where looking
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/qQM48d/msi-geforce-rtx-3070-lhr-8-gb-gaming-z-trio-video-card-geforce-rtx-3070-gaming-z-trio-8g-lhr

[lean briar]

560?!

[grand orbit]

That is the price yes

[lean briar]

Damn

Nice price

[normal tiger]

Yeah I was looking at a used one for the tuf

[grand orbit]

Nah 3070 ti tuf new wouldn't be worth it let alone used imo

[rugged notch]

will the 7000 series run cyber punk with 240 fps max setting ultra 4k

[molten halo]

[jolly inlet]

I don't think the game itself can do that with how broken the engine is

[real reef]

should i wait for a restock or buy now

https://www.newegg.com/asus-geforce-rtx-3080-rog-strix-rtx3080-o12g-gaming/p/N82E16814126550?Item=N82E16814126550&Description=3080&cm_re=3080-_-14-126-550-_-Product&quicklink=true

[jolly inlet]

https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=10G-P5-3885-KL&associatecode=PCPartPicker

[real reef]

but thats 10gb

[jolly inlet]

What are you doing that needs 12gb? 4k gaming doesn't even use all that

If you really need that extra 2gb for unreal engine game development or something there's this https://pcpartpicker.com/product/qnFbt6/asus-geforce-rtx-3080-12gb-lhr-12-gb-tuf-gaming-oc-video-card-tuf-rtx3080-o12g-gaming

[swift forge]

@jolly inlet they had a 3080 ftw 3 for 650 bstock like a week ago

[jolly inlet]

That's B stock though, less warranty support

You only get like 90 days instead of 3-5 years

[swift forge]

That cards cooler tho has a power problem

It’s low

Like the tdp is really low

[light bay]

Tdp doesn't really matter

Especially when people like to measure it differently

[jolly inlet]

It's still a 3080 either way

[light bay]

ventus 2x 3080 becomes real

Say what?

[azure pond]

3080 12gb has more cores and bandwidth than 10gb too

It's more similar to the ti than the 10gb

[jolly inlet]

Which is still only a 2% difference

[azure pond]

But there are $800 12gb in stock rn

[azure pond]

No?

It's like 10% between 10gb and 12gb

[jolly inlet]

Where tf are you seeing 10% when the ti is only like 5% over the 10gb

[swift forge]

Tdp and I think the voltage sucks

[azure pond]

I don't feel like cropping rn, but ig it's around 5% difference between 3080 10gb and 12gb, possible more at 4k

[swift forge]

For overclocking

[light bay]

The tuf is a really great one

[azure pond]

That's the ti, since passmark doesn't have the 12gb

[light bay]

@jolly inlet confirm?

[jolly inlet]

Yeah TUF cooler is good

[light bay]

PCB good too right?

[jolly inlet]

Average

[light bay]

Good nuff

[swift forge]

The cooler is good iirc but the bios suck

It limits the cards

Power

[jolly inlet]

You can cross flash bios

[swift forge]

Yea some people did that with the card

And it performed better

[jolly inlet]

It's not hard and not super risky

[jolly inlet]

A whole 4 fps on 4k ultra

Or 2 depending on the game

[swift forge]

I doubt anyone is gonna notice 4fps

[slow sluice]

The 12gb does some weird stuff in some titles

[jolly inlet]

With 10gb being $750 and the 12gb being $800 that's 7% more money for about 4% more performance overall that no one will notice

[light holly]

I might be pinging you later :)

[cinder kiln]

Can ping me if you want help with that lol

[light holly]

What will I have to do? My TUF 3080 12gb should be here friday

[cinder kiln]

DM

[light holly]

slides into your DMs

[grand orbit]

Download nvflash from tpu, search tpu for highest 2x8 pin power bios for 3080 12gb that hopefully matches your display ports, flash

[light holly]

@grand orbit also get a free z12 keeb with that if you use promo 12G-P5-4868-KL

[light holly]

Thats def a simplified version of what Felix dmed me for sure

[grand orbit]

Cool

Lol

[light holly]

What do you mean by matches my display ports?

Sorry, I got busy at work so I couldn't ask earlier.

[grand orbit]

Like sometimes if a cards layout of ports is HDMI, DP, DP, HDMI
and yours is DP DP HDMI DP or something some of the ports might not work

[light holly]

Oh ok. (From right to left) It looks like DP DP DP HDMI with and HDMI below the other HDMI port.

Idk why I didn't just post the pic in the first place.

[grand orbit]

So like you might loose one of your hdmis or something

[light holly]

Hm.

Well, good thing I have igpu for my sensor panel then

[lean briar]

https://www.newegg.com/oloy-64gb/p/N82E16820821247 178$

[grand orbit]

@lean briar talk here about deals not #tech-deals

And to add to your point, the 3080 12gb is about 5% better

[light holly]

I'm kinda meh about the fact that hybrid is the same price I just paid for a normal one, but at the same time, I was told the cooler on mine works basically as good as a liquid cooler.

[grand orbit]

Tuf is a nice model yeah

[brisk sphinx]

Is there a point to flashing a new BIOS on my FTW3 ultra 3080 12gb?

[stoic crest]

not really

unless you wanna oc more

[molten halo]

Keeeebbbbb

[azure pond]

Isn't z12 kinda mid?

[light bay]

Me and fal have one, I think rommy does too

It's a alright membrane keeb

Nothing super crazy about it, altho it does have some macros which is nice

[fair moon]

I got one as part of a bundle, it is membrane but honestly feels pretty decent

I still use my Z20 though

What'd you do to it?

[light holly]

I like my z15. I'm a EVGA gpu shill though and kinda really want that one.

[fair moon]

Is the difference just the light bars?

Or is it the audio controls as well

[grand orbit]

It's decent

[grand orbit]

Depends if there is a bios that gives you more power for oc then sure as long as you're not sacrificing your video ports for it

[fair moon]

...that's a lot of effort for a membrane keyboard

Do you enjoy the feel of membrane switches?

Lol

Ah got it

[grand orbit]

I don't mind member tbh

[oak sentinel]

Membrane is aight

[stoic crest]

not as good as mech tho

[grave delta]

k120 master race

[flat junco]

https://tenor.com/view/ew-yuck-gif-13390919

[fair moon]

$425 6700xt

That's uhh

$25 more than the cheapest 3060ti

With a bit more vram and fps

[jolly inlet]

And it's a mech 🤢

[fair moon]

under MSRP tho

[fleet marlin]

That doesn't mean much tbh.

$650 for 3080 10gb after promo and gift card https://www.newegg.com/yeston-geforce-rtx-3080-rtx3080-10g-d6x-ya/p/1FT-007N-00071?

And its owo

https://tenor.com/view/uw-u-kawai-pixel-art-gif-18479272

[steel wren]

that card is... kinda strange, is good looking, good price, but the fan blockade... kinda... weird

[jolly inlet]

Performance is average at least, not like the ventus

[stoic crest]

hey at least it cools better than ventus

and cheaper

[slow sluice]

Fan blockage doesn't look like it would actually block that much

[stoic crest]

It resembles evga design ngl

[steel wren]

poor ventus, those cards ended as a meme

[light bay]

3x ampere was good enough

but yeah 2x was pretty bad

[jolly inlet]

3x with G6X is bad too, so 3070 ti and up

[light holly]

@dull flame I'm very skeptical of a $100 s22 Ultra lol

[pulsar fable]

That ain't no s22 ultra I've ever seen

[vague pine]

wonder if yeston gpu's will keep going down because of promos because there was another model that was like $750 right?

[normal tiger]

are returns allowed on newegg for sketchy stuff like that lol

[gusty willow]

damn all these 3080 and 3080ti deals making me sad because im broke

[vague pine]

dont remember policy on third party stuff but i mean, its yeston. theyre an actual company just that not really known here in US vs asia

like galax

dont really see galax here in the US

[normal tiger]

ohh for sure, but i was referring to the s22 haha

[vague pine]

probably not if its sketch and third party seller that isnt verified

[normal tiger]

sadge

[vague pine]

bottom of page says theres a return policy but thats covered by that seller and not wegg

[fair moon]

$100? They gonna send you an S22

[jolly inlet]

Yeah you buy it and they change the listing later to say S12 or something lol

[light holly]

@fleet marlin do you have to be a BestBuy premium member (or whatever it is) to buy the gpu?

[fleet marlin]

nope. - pic just to highlight normal cart button and says Learn about totaltech because I don't have TT or even BestBuy "elite", or w/e they do call it.

[light holly]

Just so I don't feel so bad about missing out on this deal.. how does a 6900xt compare to a 3080 12gb? I know the gpu list, but I'm assuming the 3080 on the list is a 10gb.

[grand orbit]

6900xt beats it by like 5%

In non RT/rendering

[fleet marlin]

yep. Note this review is from early 2021 and amd drivers often get better as they mature. yellow pic just to show how the non-xtxh gaming X compares.
https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/msi-rx-6900-xt-gaming-z-trio.b8836
--We know the 12GB 3080 is a decent bit better than it's 10GB bro, but at $800ish this 6900 is currently a pretty solid buy I figure. A quick mention for the TUF 12GB 3080 being $750 I think, but that isn't a common price yet.

[light holly]

Rendering.. as in like loading up games? Like draw distances and what not?

[grand orbit]

As in like blender or something

[light holly]

Oh ok

@grand orbit How much do you think I could get out of the 2070 super I just bought? By the time I get the 3080, it'll have only been used 5 days.

https://www.evga.com/products/specs/gpu.aspx?pn=7acaece6-5070-4379-a4d0-edfe7af33067

[grand orbit]

Can you just return it instead, you'd probably get more money

[light holly]

Can I return bstock? I would have to pay shipping costs though right? And there'd be a restocking fee?

[grand orbit]

No idea

[light holly]

I also have a UPS claim atm because they delivered it to not my address. I'm just super lucky that the person who it got delivered to sought out my address to give it to me.

[grand orbit]

That is lucky

[prisma cosmos]

B Stock from EVGA you have a 1 year warranty

[light holly]

For an RMA though?

Ok yeah costs 15% restocking fee and shipping. I'll just hold onto it. Gonna call UPS about the claim today since it's been 7 days with no update.

That 15% itself is $50. Shipping is at least another $20. Feel like I could get more out of it by selling it.

[light holly]

Looks like HWS is saying a used 2070 super ventus is a fair price for $330.

[fair moon]

Yeah they're going for 300-400 on ebay

Looks like 400 is mostly FE cards

[light holly]

This is the one I have. I wonder if I can push $350 shipped.

https://www.evga.com/products/specs/gpu.aspx?pn=7acaece6-5070-4379-a4d0-edfe7af33067

[fair moon]

Yeah probably

Keep in mind that ebay takes a cut

[light holly]

Right. I've never used ebay. I was thinking of HWS

[fair moon]

Selling directly with PayPal is better but still some fees I think

[light holly]

Yeah I believe g&s is like.. 5%?

[fair moon]

Somewhere around that

350 shipped seems like a good starting point, can always drop the price a little if needed

Might be harder to sell now that new GPUs are in stock at reasonable prices but worth a shot

[light holly]

Thanks man. I'll check it out when I get home.

[dull flame]

Ye

[grand orbit]

@loud sandal the one you replied to is Canada not us btw

@loud sandal LMFAO had to outdo me didn't you XD

Also the random ping out of no where

👀

well i mess up anyway

bc your deal was for candida

[dim dagger]

Yeah lol

And was pretty old now

That listing updated

[high radish]

Ordered one of those strix 3080

Gonna get rid of stupid aorus 3080

[grand orbit]

V nice price

[steel wren]

same

man i see my old games that cant play anymore... it will be a relief to shelf the 750ti again

[light holly]

@high radish That is so ridiculous. grr lol

[high radish]

Welcome to Strix gang who bought it

[light holly]

I should have waited.

[light holly]

Knowing my luck, if I canceled my Amazon order, It would take forever before the money got put back into my account and by the time it did that strix would be oos lol

[high radish]

it's coming back in stock frequently

[light holly]

I'll just be happy with what is coming.

[steel wren]

friday for me... packaging... im so excited

[high radish]

[light holly]

my 3080 says it'll be here friday. Amazon has pretty good track record for me so we'll see.

[prisma cosmos]

?

[fleet marlin]

Bet that strix will be same price on amazon within the week. Also the TUF was $750 at asus.com for a while then sold out an hr ago.

[raw inlet]

Gigabyte 6900xt for 752£ (880$) good or nah? UK

[grand orbit]

New? Yes

[light holly]

I'm thinking ill just put the strix vbios on it.

[grand orbit]

Strix has 3x8 pin

Tuf has 2

[light holly]

Oh nvm then.

Idk what bios to put on it then tbh

[fleet marlin]

For me the 2x8 is almost a pro. 375w general limit is still 50% higher than my 1080 ever hit. The $50 doesn't hurt either(plus I'll UV anyways, make 3x8 less of a big deal). I just feel soon enough the Strix will be below $800 also. No way I'm jumping the gun. -- need a new psu for these anyways, is the main thing.

[brisk sphinx]

THATS WHAT I WAS NEEDING FOR MY PC, A NEW PSU

I was meaning to buy something for a while now but I forgot what

Running a 5900x and 3080 12gb off of a 750w

[raw inlet]

I had just posted the 6900xt deal and it got out of stock in one second

[high radish]

Lol

[fleet marlin]

@brisk sphinx UV is a fine idea, make gpu far more power efficient than Nvidia has them at stock.

[high radish]

I running 12900k and 3090 with 1200w

[grand orbit]

Only 3080 12gb to be cheaper than 800 is ventus at like 770 or something

[fleet marlin]

TUF was a 12GB model. Obviously is just such a good deal currently and limited stock at asus.com it went oos quick. Of course ventus is an ez no, regardless of price almost.

[grand orbit]

The strix in tech deals is also the 12gb model

[high radish]

Bought that strix 3080 couse I can't wait few months for 40 series

[azure pond]

i was actually about to post h510 flow for $70 to tech deals, but theres a slight issue

$110 shipping lmfao

[pulsar fable]

I beg your pardon?

[azure pond]

no pardon for you

[pulsar fable]

Aww

[grand orbit]

Lol

Also I'm pretty sure it's usually like 80$ anyway

[azure pond]

90 iirc

[grand orbit]

Bad p360a don't at me

[azure pond]

oh i wouldnt buy it at $70 either

but for the people that want the h510 for the look

like the one dude yesterday

wouldnt hear us out on any other case

[grand orbit]

It's usually around 85$ just checked

[clever fox]

Heya

Is this worth 2600?

Thanks 🙏

[azure pond]

not really, considering you can buy parts of better performance/quality for $1600, and pay someone to build it for under $200

if you wont build yourself

[clever fox]

I see

Can you hook me up?

[azure pond]

making a list now

[fleet marlin]

Perhaps in build-chat.

[clever fox]

Thank you 🙌

[azure pond]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/R7tt9r

[clever fox]

Hey forg

[azure pond]

mm?

[clever fox]

Can you do a ryzen 9 build?

[azure pond]

12700f has the same perf as the 5900x and costs less

[clever fox]

I see

[fair moon]

iirc 5900x has a bit better multicore perf but if you're primarily gaming the 12700 has a decent boost to single core

And is cheaper

[grand orbit]

That's a fat rip off

[brisk sphinx]

cries as he paid almost 3k for almost those exact specs during the shortage

[flat junco]

Yeah, but you had all that time with great graphics

[cloud hornet]

Same, but also custom loop and 8tb SSD, so idk if I should cry yet

prolly, cuz I still paid way too much lol

sad crying noises

[fleet marlin]

8TB ssd

[cloud hornet]

I mean hey, I got it for 60% of pretax MSRP

[fleet marlin]

The 4TB firecuda 530 for $350 is what I keep trying to snag, but don't need it.

[cloud hornet]

Yeah, I was still questioning whether I should get the 8TB QVO cuz I didnt really need it. But trying to buy a $450 8TB meh SATA SSD when I do "need" it, that'd be not fun. Might as well splurge now and use it for 10yrs

[swift forge]

U can make that a bit cheaper with a 6800xt

Minus a 100 bucks

[cloud hornet]

Idk, Nvidia tax for NVENC, better RT cores, and Tensor cores seems reasonable. But might not be reasonable for all tho

[azure pond]

Some people prefer nvidia, and since he was looking at a 3080 build I went with a 3080

[fleet marlin]

Everyone waiting to see lower tier AIB stuff get price cuts like the 12GB 3080.

Open box strix 3080 now $40 off, lol. As if 5% off would make that worth it. I think not. -- top 30 series dropping was just a matter of time. -- yea, gotta clear way for 40 series, and 3090 (ti) sales just slowed way down too probably. --- strix 3070 for $550ish, then we're talkin.

[cinder kiln]

3090 for 800 on hws??

Time to SLI

[jolly inlet]

2080 ti dropped in value hard before the 30 series launch because Nvidia was saying the 3060 ti was supposed to beat it. I saw below $400 easy and as low as $250.

[cloud hornet]

Demon bought a cheap one back then, wasnt it like $350 or smth?

$2000 for a 2080Ti lets go

[fleet marlin]

Plus mining. Hopefully that crap stays dead so gamers can enjoy decent pricing for a change. --- idk, doubt prices are gonna jump crazy anytime soon. If so, will be ready to break even on my 1080.

[cloud hornet]

Pretty sad special 2080Ti wasnt 3080Ti/3090

[jolly inlet]

Covid hit shortly after the 30 launch so yeah, some people bought 2080 ti for $300 and resold for $1200. It was insane and I'm glad we're past that.

[swift forge]

The ti is 1400 at bb 🤓

3090s are for the poor like me

[cinder kiln]

KP was 1200 on b stock tho

[jolly inlet]

5700 XT has been very low lately on eBay, I wonder why

[lean briar]

Any good gou deal

S

Gpu

[fair moon]

keep an eye out. There's been some good 3080 12gb lately, if you're looking for lower spec it's harder to find a "deal" but they are much closer to MSRP now. Could also go to ebay and get something there

[grand orbit]

Amds encoder is just as good now so nv tax only really applies to RT/rendering/RTX voice now

[grand orbit]

i like having money making pc tyvm

2x8 pin 3090 non fe is sad

[grand orbit]

I have a job but passive income from something that otherwise just sits there when I'm not gaming is great

[fleet marlin]

true. gif for everyone incl myself for lulz.

[torpid night]

I don’t remember the 2080 Ti being $300

[light holly]

Since when?

[torpid night]

never lol

they were talking about it earlier

also, covid hit in the middle of 20-series’ lifespan

actually nvm lmao

they were right earlier. I think the 3080 was the first 30-series released. so, covid hit just prior to that

[cinder kiln]

It was the first 30 series yea

[torpid night]

ye

[fair moon]

Used on ebay during the panic selling

Maybe closer to 350

[light bay]

AMD encoder may be good but the support for it is still 💩

Atleast if you're talking about the new amf stuff with b frames

[grand orbit]

Huh? I mean for streaming/recording

6000 was always pretty good but they released some new update that apparently makes it better, haven't looked into it tho

[swift forge]

What’s up with this pricing of 13 cents? https://www.newegg.com/g-skill-32gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820232907

[grand orbit]

Probably meant 130

Or scam

[pulsar fable]

seller: FU TAN

sounds like a bad translation or petty revenge

maybe i should buy their entire stock XD

[lean briar]

Ordered 4

[light holly]

If it were a scam.. Would they just take my 13 cents or??

eh, doesn't matter anyways as they must have went oos

[torpid night]

darn. it's $128 now :(

[light holly]

It won't even let me load up Fu Tans seller page.

nvm it loaded now

Yeah OOS

[torpid night]

rip :(

[light holly]

Good luck to whoever was able to checkout for 13 cents lol

[pulsar fable]

i got 2 orders in before the price reset

may as well see what happens

[strong axle]

#tech-deals message

[swift forge]

Tell me if the order went through lol?

[strong axle]

This cannot ne real

Lol

Why is it allowed to ne there

[swift forge]

They might cancel your orders

[swift forge]

Dang

I wish I ordered it now

[light holly]

doesn't mean they will still send it though

[swift forge]

Tell me when your package arrives lol

[grand orbit]

No idea

[swift forge]

Just curious abt it

[steel wren]

in fact they can take weeks if not months to reach

if they dont ship at all

[swift forge]

Even if it was a scam it’s just 13 cents

[grand orbit]

Yeah lol

Worth the risk

[lean briar]

Estimates august11

[pulsar fable]

yeah, i got 2 and its still "in processing"

[steel wren]

pay with paypal xD

processing last like 1 minute that way

at least for me

[pulsar fable]

i payed for both with paypal

[steel wren]

feel like peppo

[pulsar fable]

well the -14c is in paypal, but its "authorization in process"

well if this does somehow go though, what am i supposed to do with 64gb of ram? What games take up that much ram besides minecraft?

[azure pond]

Use 32gb, sell the other 32gb

[pulsar fable]

maybe i should make my 9700k with the 64gb of ram a minecraft server XD

[uneven void]

Lol I have a Ryzen 1600x 16gb as a Minecraft server for my friends

[lean briar]

If i get it im gonna use 64 or 32 and sell other

[steel wren]

that sounds like a great idea

[pulsar fable]

👍

[swift forge]

Wish I bought ram lol

Prob would’ve just oc it for a lil bit

Then put it back in the box lol

[lean briar]

Nah

Got refunded

ye thats what im talking about

if you want, check the last couple paragraphs of this article

[brittle lagoon]

@light bay what data are you using to shill ls smh

[light bay]

deepcool.com

im sponsored

fr tho guru3d has reviewed it already

[brittle lagoon]

Ye looks good but ima hold off until some other people review it too

Gn prob not gonna get to it for a while

[light bay]

probs

[brittle lagoon]

But at least like tpu or Tom's hardware, their methodology isn't good but more uncertain numbers are better than no numbers at all

[light bay]

mhmm

its pretty incredible for a asetek it looks like

[brittle lagoon]

Non-asetek iirc

Deepcool custom thing

Which would make more sense

[light bay]

oooo is it?

i was just testing you 😛

[brittle lagoon]

Smh

[brittle lagoon]

I'm testing you now

Noctua desk fan when

@lofty moss it was supposed to be like q1 this year at first

[lofty moss]

i need it

[brittle lagoon]

Same

Ryan fails

Supposed to be q1 next year now

[brittle lagoon]

Were it not for the name colours I'd swear I'd feel like I'd be witnessing an argument with oneself

Sad ssd sale gone

[stoic crest]

that 3090 deal is bad ngl

since there's literally 3090 kp b stock

it's white sure but neh

[vague pine]

though this is gonna end soon and was probably talked about earlier, but this is a good deal, right? $620 and $200 gift card

https://www.newegg.com/yeston-rx6800-16gd6-ya/p/27N-0042-000B8

also funny, link says 6800 16gb even though its meant for the 6700xt 12gb

[stoic crest]

yep

it's nice deal

[oak sentinel]

obs supports amf btw

https://github.com/e00E/obs-amf

[loud sandal]

White products tend to cost more so I say it's a good deal

[light bay]

Ye that's third party tho but yeah

[tiny heron]

Is this a decent nvme? $89.99 for 1tb

[stoic crest]

No

Get MP33

[tiny heron]

Ngl I don't know much about ssds. But doesn't the mp33 have like a third of the speed?

[stoic crest]

Nah

Sequential speed doesn't matter much

[tiny heron]

Is it one of those things where I'd never actually use the speed of the higher rated one. Or is it just a matter of quality

[stoic crest]

In real use cases for most people

It won't be utilized

[tiny heron]

Gotcha. Appreciate it

[slow sluice]

They even have the same band iirc

[grand orbit]

Yeah it is

[cinder kiln]

@lean briar EVGA B stock has the 3080 XC3 for 650

[flat junco]

@cinder kiln thanks, ordered one

It actually dropped down to $630

[azure pond]

yo

theresone for $420 rn

if you want to order it and cancel that one

[flat junco]

Oh snap

But why is it so low

[slow sluice]

I'm not seeing it

[azure pond]

still there

[slow sluice]

Oh I see it now

Uhhhhh

[azure pond]

i imagine its got some cosmetic issues, i wish they had descriptions on these

[flat junco]

Yeah, I'm assuming someone sat on it

[azure pond]

lol

if it doesnt work, theres the warranty

[flat junco]

Ordered it, but too late to cancel the first

So customer support just told me to start an RMA and return it, I'd just have to pay shipping

[azure pond]

ah

nice

[flat junco]

Thanks for finding that though, hopefully I don't get screwed over with two GPU's lol

[tiny heron]

Oooh I might get that 1080 for my 10105f build lol

[azure pond]

its a nice price

oh @wispy fern

if you still want a 1080

[slow sluice]

@flat junco you're going to have to share pics

[fair moon]

Broken rgb maybe?

Wish I snagged one

[flat junco]

RGB overrated

I need to find an extra 8-pin cable first though

[azure pond]

ez, sata to 8 pin

best idea ever

(ps, no one do this)

[slow sluice]

EPS adapter would probably be the better bet lol

[azure pond]

850 gt is $50 on b stock too :p

[fair moon]

As long as your psu is decent the daisy chain is fine no?

Like the split cables

[grand orbit]

Who cares it's a 3080 12gb kinda new for 420$ with 1 year warranty from trusted retailer, they could completely removed the shroud and just had the fans on the heatsink for all i care x)

[slow sluice]

Usually yes

[grand orbit]

Daisy chain can work, not ideal tho

[slow sluice]

Just don't OC with it

[steel wren]

already gone

someone lucky bought that 3080 at 400 bucks

[azure pond]

id def check the temps on it first lol

[grand orbit]

With the daisy chaining one cable you're still rated for 375w and tbh 8 pin cables can do more than 150w these days so like 400w should he fine

[flat junco]

Yeah, I have a modular psu, but the thing is, you can never find the cables when you actually need them

[azure pond]

yeah... im missing most of the ones for my rmx lol

[raw inlet]

420$ 3080 12gb is insane

[steel wren]

already gone my friend

[raw inlet]

You bought it?

[grand orbit]

Nice thing about Corsair is they're really good with getting replacement cables for

[tiny heron]

Dang all gone

Had it in my cart 😭

[azure pond]

1080 is oos too

$210 3050 is still there

[grand orbit]

Nice

[azure pond]

$400 2080 supers is also decent

[grand orbit]

10$ more than new 1630

[azure pond]

lmao

theres tons of $520 3070s

[steel wren]

no, someone was faster than me, by the time i was on the shipping address the cart was empty

[azure pond]

oh here we go guys

[raw inlet]

Bleh

[raw inlet]

Let's collab to findi his IP and location

[steel wren]

still the xc3 versions are 650usd

not a bad deal, but not game breaking as the 400 one

[light holly]

So you getting a 3080 12gb?

[grand orbit]

I live in a land far far away good sir

[high radish]

[light holly]

I know. I was throwing a little salt at you.

[high radish]

I bought strix 3080 12gb for 799

And gonna put my aorus 3080 to trashcan

[azure pond]

assalt

[azure pond]

if youre planning to throw it out, ill take it

[lean briar]

U can give jt to me

I dont have a gpu

[high radish]

Eww it's trash

[normal tiger]

You can have my gtx 645

[lean briar]

Ok

[high radish]

RMA "repaired" it and it still giving black screen sometimes

I hate gigatrash

[lean briar]

I need a gpu

What should i buy

[high radish]

Strix

[lean briar]

Expensive

[normal tiger]

Honestly I just settled with a 6600xt cuz it was cheap, and I only go up to 1440p anyways with low end games

[grand orbit]

Stop asking if you don't take suggestions please

[azure pond]

1440p on a 6600xt does not sound fun

[lean briar]

[normal tiger]

Actually atm im at 1080p cuz I only have 24” gaming monitors. Plan on getting 1440p sometime

Would have loved a 3060ti, but I’ve yet to snag a good deal on that one

[grand orbit]

6700xts are around 425 rn

[normal tiger]

Those are supposedly a bit better than 3060tis right?

[azure pond]

imo, not worth going from a 6600xt to a 6700xt

[normal tiger]

Yeah true

I have 2 gaming pcs, one has a 960 which I also want to upgrade

[high radish]

6600xt on 2k RT giving 1fps

[tiny heron]

6600xt is a 1080p beast though

[azure pond]

3060 on 2k rt giving 1 fps

[high radish]

it's my backup card

My strix 3080 coming tomorrow

[normal tiger]

What’s rt?

[azure pond]

ray tracing

[normal tiger]

Gotcha

[high radish]

Ray tracing

[tiny heron]

Tracing Rays

[high radish]

Probably 2fps but yeah something like that lol

[normal tiger]

Yeah rip, I don’t plan on turning that on, would be nice but with the games I play, no need for it

[lean briar]

Im probably gonna get that 560$ 3070

[fair moon]

Raw performance with ray tracing off, it's better in most games by a little bit

[tiny heron]

You can get decent performance with RSR and fsr. But can make it a bit washed out in some games

[fair moon]

At $425 it's a very solid buy

[normal tiger]

Yeah and I heard amd is horrible with ray tracing? Or at least def the 6600xt

[silent rampart]

where are the 6700xt at 425?

[high radish]

Actually I see on test videos 3060 does 50-60fps on most games at 2k RT on with some dlss

[fair moon]

It was a limited time deal

[silent rampart]

ah

[normal tiger]

Wasnt the msi gaming z trio 3070 on newegg a better deal? Correct me if im wrong guys

[fair moon]

Plz get ti not base 3060

[lean briar]

Yeah im talking about that one

[normal tiger]

Ohh thought you meant on b-stock

[high radish]

I ordered strix 3080 12gb but my backup card is 6600xt till I get it lol

And it literally giving under 10fps with 2k RT on lol

[fair moon]

Yeah Nvidia is way ahead in that regard. To be fair I've only played a few games that really utilize it (Control, Metro Exodus PC, Minecraft (and maybe Teardown?)

[high radish]

While 3060 mostly giving over 30fps

[azure pond]

almost like rtx is a gimmick

my 3060 ti drops to 60 fps or under from over 100 in most games, with just rtx on low

at 1080p

rtx is terrible

[high radish]

At 2k RT is great

[normal tiger]

Ahh yeah I don’t play any of those games asides from minecraft, I guess RT isn’t a necessity..im curious how much better does it look on minecraft?

[azure pond]

yes, because rtx at 1440p will definitely mean less frames lost than 1080p

makes sense

[high radish]

Without RT I feel like playing at low settings

[fair moon]

It's more about bad RT implementation I think. Metro Exodus was ~100 fps on my 3060ti iirc

[azure pond]

with rtx i feel like im playing on my old 1030 pc

i dont even visibly see a difference in most games with rtx on

[fair moon]

It's only for bugrock edition unfortunately. Looks really, really cool though.

[azure pond]

its just a gimmick and a marketing strategy at this point

hell, even intel gpus are going to have rtx cores

[fair moon]

I'm interested to see UE5 games come out utilizing Lumen

(Actually more hyped for Nanite but lumen was more related to the conversation)

[high radish]

I wonder how will intel price its gpus

[azure pond]

badly

[high radish]

[flat junco]

When I played Control with RTX on, I kept running into the windows

[jolly inlet]

When I played control with RTX on I couldn't see any windows because it would crash within a few seconds

[high radish]

[oak sentinel]

In that case most of what you could see was windows

Strix Eva 3090 https://a.co/d/7sDNIjj

[clever fox]

Hey

My cousin wants a good pre build

Any suggestions?

His budget is 4,000$

[brittle lagoon]

need monitor keeb headphones etc in the budget?

[clever fox]

Just a pc

I gave him everything else he needs like a monitor keyboard and mouse

[brittle lagoon]

What will they use it for?

[azure pond]

What currency and country

[clever fox]

USD

[azure pond]

At that price you're better off buying parts and paying someone locally to put it together for you

And is the pc for gaming?

If money legit does not matter to you, here, but you can get very similar gaming performance at like $1800
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/9FBqPX

What I'd actually do https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BVspzf

[brittle lagoon]

Welp, something similar in prebuilt form
https://xoticpc.com/collections/g3-avenger/products/xotic-g3-avenger-z690-ddr5?conf=627183

[azure pond]

Xoticpc...

Gross

[brittle lagoon]

12900k+6950xt for 4000$

what's wrong with xotic smh

[azure pond]

Everything

[brittle lagoon]

?

[azure pond]

Ask sips

[brittle lagoon]

?

@steel sapphire got anything to say about xotic?

[azure pond]

Wait, I might be getting them confused with origin?

[brittle lagoon]

lmao

[azure pond]

Pretty sure xotic is the one that changes extra to apply thermal paste to your cpu

[grand orbit]

That's origin

[steel sapphire]

they make decent products at exorbitant costs iirc

[brittle lagoon]

yea that's what I remembered, works fine when someone has a sky high budget and is willing to spend money on a prebuilt for it being a prebuilt

[jolly inlet]

Origin was actually good but overpriced. They were the ones that shipped in wooden crates.

[cloud hornet]

xotic mostly focuses on custom loops, right?

[shut spoke]

doesnt digital storm do wooden crates too? i vaguely remember watching a creator open one with a crowbar

[gusty willow]

i know to stay away from xidax

[light bay]

Redux prebuilt ❤️

[gusty willow]

probably wouldve gotten a redux if gpu prices didnt go down

[loud sandal]

@azure pond where 3050 for 210 or is that gone already

There's this

[high radish]

That prebuild case is oven

[jolly inlet]

HP got a rating of "embarrassingly bad" from Gamers Nexus too

[cinder kiln]

Raw parts though is interesting

[high radish]

As well as most of prebuilds loo

[loud sandal]

Oh sad

[cinder kiln]

Wonder how much the value of the non-brand parts would be worth on that

[jolly inlet]

There's been a few they were comfortable recommending, like ABS. "Not bad by comparison" lol

[loud sandal]

I didn't know it had 3080 ti and i7 in it I thought was good

[cinder kiln]

I feel like those two and the ram would be worth close to 1300 on their own

[high radish]

if you can move parts to another case maybe it's alright idk

[loud sandal]

Woah

[jolly inlet]

You could actually build a better PC for not much more in price and it wouldn't thermal throttle

[cinder kiln]

Ssd too is a wd black

[cinder kiln]

Meh

If you have a good way to use it yeah

[loud sandal]

Vram go brrrrr

[high radish]

[cinder kiln]

If not 3080 12gb

Or 3080 10gb for 650

2/3 the price for 92%+ perf

[high radish]

There was rog strix 3090 EVA for 1300$ recently

[cinder kiln]

That's blegh

Not even meh

[loud sandal]

I mean strix is nice

Cooling good

[high radish]

Yup

[cinder kiln]

Yeah but kingpin is cheaper

[loud sandal]

Evga xc3 ew

[high radish]

https://tenor.com/view/cocaine-strix-gang-strix-3090-rtx-white-gif-22429477

Evga hybrid eww

[cinder kiln]

Lol

[loud sandal]

What 2060 should I buy

From evga

[high radish]

I had evga 3080ti hybrid lol it was ugly as hell and temps were worse than strix lol

[loud sandal]

They all same price but different version

[high radish]

Why not 3060 lol

[cinder kiln]

That strix* 3080 12gb one they had at a fairly normal price would've been worth it

Not the 3090's

[loud sandal]

That's more expensive

[high radish]

Ordered that strix 3080 12gb for 799

[loud sandal]

I just need card to run fornite and gta 5

[cinder kiln]

Yea 799 is considerable

[high radish]

it should arrive tomorrow

I will throw that Aorus 3080 to trashcan

[molten halo]

Strix tax 👀

[loud sandal]

No

[loud sandal]

Don't you dare

https://tenor.com/view/liam-neeson-i-will-find-you-taken-gif-5593626

[high radish]

I love aorus screen but it's gone to rma 2 times already lol

[loud sandal]

Why

[high radish]

I couldn't play game normally for last month couse that gigatrash

Black screening

[loud sandal]

Just bc gigabyte made the card doesn't mean it's there fault

Your computer could have black screen for many reasons

Like a fedex driver throwing your gpu across the yard into your pouch

Your blaming a company for something out of there control

[high radish]

I RMAd it and I see repair on 2 of vrams

They replaced 2 vrams

Which is in same channel

But it still does black screening when I OC it

[loud sandal]

Bruh

That's bc your OC unstable

[high radish]

Probably another dead gpu as first one

[loud sandal]

Some cards don't OC well

[high radish]

it's aorus

[loud sandal]

It's just silicon lottery

[cinder kiln]

[loud sandal]

That's doesn't matter

Ask sips

[loud sandal]

@steel sapphire ayo OCing is a silicon lottery righr just bc a company made the card doesn't mean it can habe good OC right it can be good or bad bc silicon

[high radish]

[cinder kiln]

Did it work fine without oc?

[loud sandal]

You and your bean

[high radish]

it was failing in basic furmark before rma but now it does it when I oc vram

[loud sandal]

Don't OC vram

[cinder kiln]

But it's otherwise fine?

[high radish]

I mean I'm done with it . I will get my strix and gonna get rid of bullsheet

[loud sandal]

Smh

Blaming a company even though not there fault

[high radish]

I paid 1100$ for it few months ago

[cinder kiln]

Gigglebit be gigglebit tho, no binning whatsoever even for xtreme

[loud sandal]

Only thing you can blame gigabyte is for there exploding power supplys

Some other things too

But just bc a gpu won't work on an OC that's not to blame the company for

The company also only wamt us to run the cards in stock rest is luck and silicon

[high radish]

I mean first they sold me refurbished card as brand new ( either gigatrash itself or Newegg) and it failed after 2 months. Rma sent "new" one cause refurbished items not repairing again. And it failed in a month too

Like wth your quality control doing guys

[loud sandal]

Was it by third partu

[high radish]

No it was from shuffle

[loud sandal]

Just bc you bought off newegg.com it could have been third party

[loud sandal]

Hmmmmmm

[steel sapphire]

yes, some cards are binned though

like, kingpin will always be good

[loud sandal]

Oh

[high radish]

I was pretty alright with it couse rma solved it quickly and I got my replacement in a 2 week but it's funny their 2nd card is faulty too lol

[loud sandal]

I mean if shipping company playing with your gpu like it's a dodge ball then it might fall

[high radish]

All I know I was playing games at mid settings with my backup card 6600xt for month couse that nonsense

So time to solve it forever

[loud sandal]

When a product leaves the warehouse to get shipped to come to your house there's 2 options here either they sent you broken card and are at fault or the shipping company is at fault once card leaved warehouse to get shipped its put of there hands

[loud sandal]

Ik it may be stressful but people do throw boxes around or they just don't care about the work and give sloppy seconds it's sad

[high radish]

I bought 2 mobos from gigatrash recently and both were doa too lol

Idk how to feel about it

Probably just my luck

Inly gigabyte product working to me is their aorus ssd

[loud sandal]

Did static touch them at all or anything

Electricity from a carpet floor or pc I think can transfer through body to stuff you touch

[cinder kiln]

Ironic because I've had an aorus ssd fail

[loud sandal]

Bruh

[high radish]

[cinder kiln]

But fr tho, the card works fine without any oc?

[loud sandal]

I had gigabyte mobo fail but it was my bad or something I don't remember what happened but ram slots stopped working but also mobo wasn't in a case

But all other gigabyte stuff I ordered worked

[high radish]

I got 4/5 fail from gigabyte so I don't think it's worth to try anymore

[loud sandal]

Well let's see in about 10 years

Buy a product from them again and see what happens

[high radish]

I guess they just messed up with their quality control

[loud sandal]

That's not always the case

We just explained to you many things go into your DOA parts and GPU OC not working

That could habe nothing to do with QC or it could have everything to do with it but you don't know how your stuff is treated after it leaved there facility

5800h is little bit slower than 12700h I think

Still it's good price

Even tho I would like to get 12700h for ddr5 memory lol

[loud sandal]

1600$

[loud sandal]
