Report all flamewarring, trolling, spamming posts. Long live /pcbg/!

Post your /pcbg/ anyway but know that we have enraged the amdshitposter to the degree that he has vowed to shit up this thread with trash with the goal of killing it.

remain vigilant, /pcbg/, report in silence, and above all - have fun.

recently got the 5060 ti and it's actually good? i'm able to run everything on max and ultra and still average 100 fps on games like oblivion remastered and hogwarts legacy
why was everyone dunking on this card initially?

because in this world people hate the other people around them and it’s usually wealth based hatred so yiu get faggots who are hated by millionaires hating people who cant afford 5090’s. whats strange is im a neet and got a 5070ti from paypal and supposed to be paying it off over 3 years but i just pay £100 a month out of my benefits, that way i can use the whole 2k credit to pay for my driving licence. something ive never had and im nearly 50

Never seen such an option from paypal. Wonder if it's a euro thing only.

They make you pay that much for a driver's licensee over there? Damn. I hope that means the drivers are usually better. Especially if you've never had to drive before.

Your mom is a trollpost.

Probably better to pay it off early then as the interest will definitely add a lot.

Damn. Of course here in burgerland we're expected to drive and have little public transport, so it makes sense the cost to learn to drive is cheaper here. Well good luck on all that, and hope you can find a decent car too.
>>
>>108186713
>interest will add a lot
think the 5070 was £839 and total to pay was £1k or something. i just got a new mobo and cpu after paying off most of it. never used credit before but also never really owned expensive pc parts before.
>here in burgerland
i was shocked to see the standards of driving in the usa bevause of the tests are conducted. but then again its cheap to own a car and get your licence isnt it?

also, if anyone can help me with >>108186535
the maybe this guy wont call me a troll, just waiting about to see if i can get some help. ive disabled fast boot etc but cant get to the bios. scan said they dont lock the bios or anything(if thats even a thing)

The description makes it sound like the BIOS is fooked. The vendor does not provide technical support? Can you just take it back to them to have them sort it?

If you aren't knowing what you're doing you could break your PC doing stuff with BIOS resets etc.. and I personally would just not use 4chan for technical support.

The only ddr4 boards left around here are some b760m models and I want to upgrade to a 14600kf but apparently these boards are too weak to power it properly. I'm too slow to figure this out and now there are no z690 boards. Are these these boards good enough anyway?
