>>102290978In my experience lots of bad motherboard reviews come from things RAM not agreeing with the board or being DOAFirst thing might not have anything to do with the mobo but being DOA is just common for motherboards as they are complex assemblies with no so great QC standards.
why are a lot of people buying the 6800 over the 7800xt?
>>102280844Back with my PSU cable that won't go in. I unplugged the PSU and checked the port; nothing looks wrong with it. It still only goes in this far at the edges. The middle doesn't go in at all as if the cable was upside down.I've tested both ends of every cable, and everything else goes in fine, except for one of the 6+2 connectors which has the same issue. Did I get defective cables?
>>102291126i missed your previous posts, was the cable supplied with the PSU?
>Gigabyte b650 aorus elite ax v2Any thoughts?
>>102291144Yeah.
Due to circumstances I'm kinda interested in a budget 1440p GPU. I currently have a 1660 super.I was thinking the ideal GPU is a 3060 12GB. GPUs like 4060 and 3060 Ti have more horsepower so to speak but at 1440p with high textures enabled, the 4060 and 3060ti will have a higher performance but textures will be blatantly worse (e.g. halo infinite) compared to 3060 12gb.In modern games like helldivers 2, you can run 1440p ultra with medium shadows and dlss on a 3060 12gb for 70+ FPS.I thought that 12 GB wouldn't matter much at this range but, at 1440p textures on high settings do like cram even with a setting here of there turned down and it makes a very noticeable difference sometimes. At worst you get stuttering because of vram but more common it seems is poorer textures even on the same setting.Got any better ideas I'm all ears. I'm going through a GPU phase again.
>>102291174which model?
Probably a dumb fucking question, but I have a pretty old corsair AIO cooler (H100i from like 2014 or so), currently mounted to my lga2011 socket motherboard. It also came with an "AMD bracket" and I can probably still find that somewhere.If I upgrade to AM5 right now, would I be able to mount it (or perhaps obtain a new mounting bracket if necessary)? Or would I need a completely new cooler at this point?The H100i is still working pretty great so I wouldn't replace it if there's a way to mount it onto a new socket.

>>102291298>>102291451>>102291869AMD is basically mandatory for budget builds, the value you get from cheaper nvidia offerings is dogshit. something will always be gimped, and it will need to be replaced after like 2-3 years. also, gunning for fsr/dlss on lower cards just disappoints, the feature ironically is best for upper range products.
>>102291119AMD shines in the midrange/poorfag cards. 7800xt is a great value but it's competing with upper range cards, and those people are willing to spend $400 more for features.
>>102291298Previous gen AMDs or intel gpus even, I don’t know how’s intel gpus in 2024 tho
>>102291706>>102291779There was some discussion on this. See >>102260013

>>102291947>I don’t know how’s intel gpus in 2024 thoMy 750 works just fine, too bad there's literally 0 good games that require hardware past 2018 and it was kind of a waste of money. At least blender renders became much faster.
>>102291947Oh look, it's cherrypicking retard againLet's see how those previous gen GPUs do in Hogwarts with RT and Frame GenOh wait, no Radeon card has Frame Gen and even a 3080 is better than a 7900 XTX even if we don't count better than native DLSS

>>102292242>>102292248>what is dlssAnyway games are built around reconstruction these days, so you'll be using TSR, FSR, XeSS if you don't have DLSS>There is no option for "no upscaling,"https://www.techpowerup.com/review/senuas-saga-hellblade-2-benchmark/3.htmlRegardless, DLSS gives excellent image quality that allows Geforce cards to last much longer, as you can decrease input resolution much further than you can with a Radeon card, where once you can't use full resolution TAA, the card is useless if you care about image quality
>>102292179It’s native+TAA blur and without FG injected, even just injecting FSR FG will give about 2x FPS here, so about 80 FPS vs 42 with DLSS and DLSS FG, it will be even more with FSR enabled, you’re so silly
>>102292172>Is it strong enough to blast the shit that gets baked inbetween heatsink fins?Unfortunately, no. That type of dust needs to be "loosened" before it can be properly cleaned. It will take off the top layer, though. I use an XPOWER A-2, and it’s been the best investment I’ve made in years. It blows up the kids pool and inflatables, cleans the PC, it's definitely worth it.

Guys, I'm tearing my hair out. I have a stupid HP pavilion that I threw an RX 6600 XT into and hooked up a separate PSU to it but the bitch just WON'T WORK. I've run DDU and tried installing the newest Adrenalin but I get a 182 error and I can't install any drivers. My GPU nor my PSU are spinning (I did paperclip test on PSU, it spun). Am I being retarded or what? It's acting like it's not receiving power, I'm keeping HDMI plugged into the onboard for the meantime. It doesn't seem to draw power, it won't take drivers and I'm out of options
give me the qrd on CPU performance vs windows versionit seems like every CPU release these days is a dumpster fire that needs 5 BIOS updates and a dozen windows KBs to not explode or run slower than the previous generationcan you make Ryzen work on Windows 10?I don't want to migrate to Jeetdows 11

>>102292862Framechasers said it's a fucking retarded techtuber disinformation meme, the alleged performance increase is like 4% meanwhile fafo OC is 20%
>>102292811You need to look further into the finer specs of the machine. Dell and HP fukken LOVE to do propriety bullshit so it is entirely possible while the psu has an 8pin connector it might not actually be wired correctly to send normal power to a gpu.
>>102292811did you use an adapter board? i dont see it

>>102293091I will upgrade the GPU later when new models come out.
>>102292661Maybe I will. Thing is I already have a 1440p monitor and I know a 306012GB can run modern games like Helldivers 2 and Space Marines 2 at that resolution at 60FPS+ whilst maintaining high quality textures. The Halo Infinite video I watched is a nail in the coffin for 8GB low-mid end cheap GPUs. If it happens in a game like that then it will happen elsewhere (and it does). At this low range 306012GB seems like the best at around £200 used or £225 new depending. Going for a 4060 or 3060 ti seems like a mistake

>>102293589Of course - that is how it maintains the on signal.
>>102293634>Black psucmon bro
I was tasked with building a PC that can handle 10 displays. I have no idea what those might be, they could be mismatched 2005 TVs for all I know, so I should prepare for the worst. How do I do this for cheap, just two GPUs and a bag full of asorted adapters?
>>102293652:0I'll report back when I make it home
>>102293654nigga, the white one costs 40 bongs more
>>102293695First off you'll want to get a clear spec. Aside from that I'd look into used pro cards. There's models out there with a bunch of ports for this exact application (though two cards might be cheaper). Finally, the main application for 5+ monitors is day trading so try reading some /biz/ type forums for ideas.
>>102290886>1080p: RTX 4070 Ti SuperThis is the most retarded recommendation I have ever seen.
>>102293392It's a 50% performance update from a 3060ti to a 4070super, not counting the DLSS 3.0, thats why im considering too, its a huge upgrade in my book, not a 20/30 one like others gens leaps.
>>102293770this. it's a 1440 card
>>102293634For the price of the peerless assassin you could get the beefier frost commander. Basically 40 quid for the PA is a bit much imo given how it has been priced in the past.
>>102293108I would say it's black build with white case.No, the mobo isn't white or at least as white as it's black.
>>102293867Thanks I'll add that in, seems much better.
The cables on this thing have given out. What's a good latest case to get? Bonus if it comes with drive bays and ssd hookups like the Fractal here.
>>102293382FFXVI is a stuttering trash heap. Not worth playing it right nowFor Wukong you should use optimized settings and DLSShttps://youtu.be/NlkgVAWqcKY?si=RumybYMPNWpsD6y_Personally I don't think the 3060 Ti to 4070 Super is quite a big enough upgrade, but as you say there's no telling how good or bad next gen XX60 class products will be, so waiting is always a gamble, especially if cards are more expensive in your region>>102293797You can use FSR Frame Gen with DLSS Super Res in the interim. FSR Frame Gen is way better with DLSS Super res than with FSR Super Res because it has higher quality frames to work with>>102293634P3 Plus is garbage compared to other options
What does nvidia low latency set to ultra actually do?I have a problematic game and it seems to fix framerate issues, even if it turns framerates down a notch it stays smooth.
>>102294040>P3 Plus is garbage compared to other optionsOkay fuck it, I added a Samsung 990 PRO instead since the anon saved me some money on the cooler.
Just grab your 4070 super and solder extra vram on top
>>102293976Replace the cables?
>>102293976pop air torrentnorth
>>102294179not worth it. Ive had this case for six years and dont feel like weaving the cables with new ones. The design is so annoying to replace
>>102294220Hard to believe you've had a Meshify 2, released 2020, for six years.
>>102294238my bad. I got it in 2021. six years is the total for my pc which Im replacing bit by bit
>>102294040It's looks good enough for me as an upgrade tho. I use my monitor at 120hz cap to being able to use a better color range on my monitor, so i'm not interested in more than 120 fps. But yeah, maybe I'll regret it next year if the 5000 series bring some new DLSS tech or some stuff, but I truly believe that a 3060ti into a 4070 super its not a minor upgrade in terms of fps. Also im pretty sure that my 3060ti its going to struggle a lot with MH Wilds, the other game that im waiting for. And about those fsr/dlss3.0 mods, some people claim that it look kinda blurry and with noticeable latency if FG is used.
>>102293976Lancool 216
>>102294263Okay fair. IMO there's not really anything strictly better unless you want a specific niche feature. Cases don't move nearly as fast as their internals. Like I would say the Lancool 3 but if you've managed to break the cables on your M2 then all those moving parts won't last long.
>>102294330the only thing that broke were the power front cover buttons.

>>102294157It's really sad that the only bigger number Radeon has is useless VRAM>>102294277>modsI'm not saying to use a mod: I'm saying to use a native implementation of FSR Frame Gen. Unfortunately Wukong doesn't have it, and that will be the case sometimes in that FSR has much less support than DLSS. The 4070 Super is about a 67% improvement over the 3060 Ti, which isn't horrible, but IMO the minimum you should look for is a 2x improvement jump when upgrading your card
Framegen looks like shit and I'm tired of people not calling it out for what it is. Until Nvidia can figure out how to display UI elements over the generation, then it's doomed to cause some awful looking streaky dogshit.

>>102290886When are GPUs with 120mm fans going to be standard? The connector is going to be recessed anyways so that shouldn't be a problem. And most cases are more compatible with a thicker but shorter card.

>>102294898First time buyers tempted to consider the RX 7700/7800 XT by AMD’s army of Advanced Marketing scammers (youtube, reddit, twitter, forums etc.) should be aware that AMD have a history of releasing benchmark busting, heavily marketed, sub standard products. Although Nvidia’s 4070 only offers comparable performance, it has a broader feature set (RT/DLSS 3.0) and offers far better game compatibility (drivers). PC gamers looking to join AMD’s “2%” GPU club (Steam stats: 5000/6000/7000 series combined mkt share) need to work on their critical thinking skills: Influencers (posing as reviewers) are paid handsomely to scam users into buying inferior products. Experienced gamers know all too well that high average fps are worthless when they are accompanied with stutters, random crashes, excessive noise and a limited feature set.
>>102294948>102294898btw this is not bias here's the reviews for both cards

Thought about my build? Opinions anything to improve?First time builder in Germany and budget not higher than that.Its for gaming 1440p and fps that uses the 166hz of the monitor (Monster Hunter Wilds, Elden Ring, maybe Wukong) and drawing with a tablet.I care about longevity and reliability, my old pc lasted me for 9 years and only 1 fan broke in this time. Tyhttps://pcpartpicker.com/list/BsBdpB
>>102293107Maybe increase your budget a bit and look for second hand 6800 / 6800 XT? I've seen some of the cheaper AIB models go for around ~280 pounds.
>>102295161I mean amd gpus aren't something to write home about, but any legit critique gets drowned by that ultraschizo. The cpu hate is just plain autism though.
>>102295161>they have an irrational hatred of AMDwow, sound vaguely familiar
Bros should I get a 6650XT for $350 CAD or the 4060 for $400 CAD? I plan on selling them once the new generation drops, but in the meantime I want a card that can play older games at 1440p. It's favorable to get the 6650 because I do use Mint, however it'll be harder to resell. Plus I like that the 4060 draws a lot less power.
>>1022952074060 of course
>>102295207>It's favorable to get the 6650 because I do use MintJust go for it then, Nvidia's drivers for Ubuntu based distros are ass.
>>102295207>I plan on selling them once the new generation dropswill get $100 less resale 6650XT vs 4060

>>102295336It can fix the rendering issues but not the fact that you'll be forced to use FSR, which is basically a rendering issue in and of itself, as it destroys image quality>>102295324Don't take my word for it. Here's the analysis >>102292284 Usually better than or equivalent to native image quality at 1440p or 4K in Quality mode, while being much fasterIt's funny that you say you've never noticed an issue with Radeon when pretty much all the latest games have major issues at launch (like Wukong, where the """""fix"""" AMD recommends) is to disable the lighting in the game

lol enjoy your X870 series motherboards bros
>>102295646>x870everything is the same as the b650e except they need usb 4 too
>>102290886Is it possible to bake lower stock clocks into a GPU with VBIOS editing? I have a 6900xt that crashes at stock but at -300mhz or so it's perfectly fine. But everytime my PC resets unexpectantly Assdrenalin resets my underclock config and i have to set it back.
>>102292286Were you to fat and lazy to line up at the same location as the video?
>>102294837It's one of the most important thing to consider if you're playing at 4K. Do NOT buy <=12GB, those cards are going to be totally fucked in a few years, especially for AAA titles. Even 16GB is feeling the heat, which is almost unthinkable.
>>102295629I need it for Cyberpunk RT. Makes the game look blurry as shit but it runs better.Nvidia has been doing tricks like this since forever, I wasn't born yesterday. They take shortcuts to graphics and still overprice their stuff but at least they still got the lead.
>>102295698DLSS Quality looks close enough to native for me not to care.
>>102295537Compared to what? Most games have TAA. Modern games and GPUs cannot use MSAA at playable framerates together. So what could you possibly think looks better? FSR, The spatial upscaler? Native is dead and you claiming to hate DLSS on your 4080S despite any game with RT needing it for Ray Reconstruction shows you are either dumb or don't actually own one.
>>102295646No, I don't think I will.
>>102295688This is the same thing retards said about 4K last generationIn fact it's always the same retarded song and dance
>>102295813at least get bluetooth and wifi lil bro.
>>102295813In my country this motherboard is 200 bucks. Is it worth it? PRO B650M-A WIFI is also 200 bucks as a point of reference.
>>102295850I mean I would say it's a pretty good bet not to buy a 12GB GPU for 4K even though I agree 12GB is fine for 1440p. Don't think you should argue that's enough for 4K. You have to have a powerful enough card to use 4K to begin with though. 4080S+

>>102295813>1 m.2uhhhhhhhhhhhh
>>102295974it has 3
>>102295896>You have to have a powerful enough cardCorrect. This is the crux of the issue. You could make the argument that someone should spend the extra on the 4070 Ti Super over the 4070 Super (preferably a 4080 Super to at least get 4K DLSS Quality for as long as possible), but the performance is fairly similar between the 4070s, and I doubt there's going to be a huge difference in the longevity of the cards. The 4070 Super is already a 4K DLSS Performance card in a lot of situations, so the buyer will likely be limited by the performance of the GPU before he's limited by the VRAM. But if he really wants to go budget, even something like a 4070 Super will suffice in the vast majority of cases: that's the definition of a budget option

>>102291298>Due to circumstances I'm kinda interested in a budget 1440p GPU. I currently have a 1660 super.2080 Ti or 3080 Ti
>>102296229What's it like?
>>102296296That's the point: without DLSS, the cards are useless relatively soon.If you at all care about the longevity of the card, you need a card with DLSS, because it will give you acceptable image quality even with a low input resolution as the card ages

>>102295929>who even buys high end motherboard people who dont want bloody bullshit colored PCBs
>>102296484Are you talking like blue and green colored PCBs? Yeah I wouldn't dip that low either. I mostly meant people buying expensive chipsets for low-end chips and never even touching the bios or using the features the board has.
>>102296519>blue and green colored PCBsreturn to tradition
>>102294796I have the original G502, G502 Lightspeed and this and I'd say they're all really similar. G502X has better switches but I think the shape of the G502 was better.It's only worth changing if you've got some kind of issue with your G502. Both of mine had the rubber completely melt away on both sides and my G502 Lightspeed switches started double clicking (which I fixed anyway by resoldiering some better switches). And I was eventually able to fix the rubber issue by buying replacement shells from aliexpress so I basically have 3 brand new mice.
