Buy the RTX 5090

My GPU somehow reaches 460W(3080 on phone emus btw). Should I grab the 1000W one for PSU or not?

Any idea what might be causing my screen to randomly go black for a few seconds and then come back on like nothing happened? Not getting anything saying it's a driver crashing or restarting. Seems completely random, it's happened while I was watching youtube and once while I was gaming

5090 32gb DDR7

5070 12gb DDR7

16 is passable for couple years, tops I've seen is 13Gb on 7900XT at 1440p. It's barely passable at 4k though.

>>102436524
what if, what if 8800XT as fast as 5080, will it even budge AMD share at all? I remember 560ti was overpriced garbage but people still didn't buy AMD.

use case for more than 8gb of VRAM? my 1080 chokes on newer games but I've still never seen anything max out my vram

literally every amd (and ati) card i have bought has given me driver issues or has not worked out of the box
nvidia cards could be 3x as much for 2x less performance and i would still never buy another amd card

Ok but who asked for your opinion jensen

Sorry if this is a retarded question but I have a MSI mpg 321urx monitor, is the power cable (the one that connects the monitor to a wall outlet) called anything specific? I wanted to see if I could find/buy a longer one, tried to use a search engine but I just get results for a usb-c cable that looks nothing like the power cable I currently have.

>>102436650
the GPU I have had the least problems with was my HD 7850, I had not a single software issue with it.
nvidia's vaunted drivers have given me experiences like:
unplayable levels of stuttering in supreme commander forged alliance, until the FAF people figured out a workaround. it still took nvidia a year to fix the underlying problem
forcing anti-aliasing inexplicably not working in some games until I go into nvidia inspector and find the correct compatibility bits. in some games there are no correct compatibility bits, and forcing AA just doesn't work, at all
anisotropic filtering just not working in DX9 games. I have to use dxvk for dx9 games and force anisotropic filtering in the dxvk settings, because forcing it in the nvidia settings doesn't work for native dx9
this is me btw >>102436624

>>102436656
>we already know the 8800XT

I use one, yes they are good cards, they would be amazing cards if they started at current price point.

Could I build a PC that gets at least 60 fps in WoW and 144 fps in Rocket League and CS2 at 1080p for under $800? Already have SSDs and a monitor

>>102436624
Moern games adapt to your VRAM, they don't stutter you to death, prime example Hogwarts, it chokes but it doesn't makethe game entirely unplayable

IMHO - 4070 Super for NVidia , 7900 GRE for AMD

>>102436769
2/10
1 point each for picking a good cpu and gpu

>>102436726
We know there is no high end RDNA4 so 7900XTX remains top dog for Radeon
6800XT -> 7800XT was around 4% - 6% improvement and even at, let's say, 12% over the 7800XT, the 8800XT would just barely beat the GRE on average.
8800XT would need a 30% improvement to reach 7900XT but I can't see that happening if AMD was content with the minimal improvement going from 6800XT to 7800XT

>>102436841
6800xt used the flagship navi21 die while 7800xt uses midrange navi32

>>102436841
>6800XT -> 7800XT was around 4% - 6% improvement
You realize that was because the number of CUs got heavily cut down from 72 to 60, right? If 8800XT keeps the same number it should absolutely do better than a few percent.

Halo 2 was too ambitious. It was like two generations too early for the tech it was trying to push. Even if they did manage to ship stencil shadows, the resolution/performance would have been too low. pic-related is only simulated/approximated btw, it's not even the real deal that could have been with pixel perfect shadows and dynamic lights.

Xbox had a high end PC-level GPU coupled with a low-tier Pentium III 733 CPU with a crippled cache. The system has Direct X 8.1, shader model 1.1, vertex shader 1.1 and two Vertex Shader units, while the Geforce 3's only had one. The Xbox GPU was quite powerful.

Microsoft was in a lawsuit against Nvidia over the original Xbox. Nvidia made the GPU for the Xbox. Nvidia was unhappy with the money they were making and wanted more. Microsoft said no. Nvidia somehow sued for breach of contract. They settled out of court.

Microsoft then immediately dumped Nvidia as their GPU partner. AMD (formerly known as ATI) stepped up and took the place of Nvidia.

>Halo 3

Huge controversy surrounding its initial decision to be always online and incompatible with second hand games

Halo 5 beta was 720p only, where the final game is dynamic 1080p (on the original Xbox One).
Xbox One could barely run Halo 5, they wanted Halo Infinite to run on the same hardware.

im not getting a 7800xd, am i? did they stop making them? what am i going to do?

>>102436904
It's futureproofed at least

>>102436883
we can't be sure 60CU going to be the limit, since PS5 got 60CUs, 72CU isn't out of reach in theory, but again monolithic RDNA4, the die limit is likely 350mm2-ish so who know how many CUs they can isnert at 4nm

>>102436883
>>102436841
the 8800xt is supposed to have 4 more CUs than the 7800xt so a similar 25% uplift in per-CU performance will put it at ~30% above the 7800xt, or at 7900xt levels. I think its nuts to expect it to match the 4080 or xtx though

>>102436913
7700x is perfect. you do not need X3D unless you want 200fps+
single core isn't that important anymore, you want 8c for modern games to avoid stutters like, for example Jedi Survivor did, I didn't experience any complains people had because of my 7700x

>>102436935
yeah there's no way its hitting 7900XTX/4080 tier but I don't know why people are having trouble believing it being 7900XT tier when the 4070ti is 10% weaker than the 7900XT at 295mm N5

>>102436935
clocks is also a factor, rumor had it they run those cores at 2800 on average, if they can push 3-3.2Ghz it can be cool.
also, seriously 7900xt=4080 in raster, 80super is another matter.

>>102436918
With R7-7800x3D your next CPU will be on AM6.

What can we expect from the 9800X3D

What's with these retarded ass OPs? For 1440p it used to be a 4070 Ti Super, then it was a 4080 Super, now it's 4070 Super?

>>102436964
Take Zen 4 non-X3D to Zen 5 non-X3D and apply it to 7800X3D
Why would you expect anything different?

>>102436964
they changed v-cache on zen5, nobody knows for real yet.

>>102436964
doomfags expect 5% over the 7800X3D, the fact is AMD made the infinity fabric bottleneck worse with Zen5 so that alone could see a significant uplift but they also apparently fixed it so it can run at regular clock speeds for Zen5 so nobody knows what the uplift will be.

>>102436964

>>102436968
first rule of /pcbg/ - do not read the OP about CPUs and GPUs.

>>102436975
Yeah, it'll basically be this which means it's not significant enough to worry about. It never is because there's always something newer and betterer coming out. Just buy the fucking hardware and stop stressing out. PCIe 5.0 SSDs have been out but everyone recommends 4.0 ones because the 5.0s overheat and are overpriced.

>>102436968
4070 Super for 1440 sounds about right

>>102437005
I would argue buying GPUs at the end of generation is a stupid idea. Best time is always to buy at the start of each generation to use it for maximum time of peak performance.

Get any Asrock b650 board instead of that overpriced motherboard.
Proart cards are also really overpriced and will perform the same as any other 4080 super.
You can get cheaper memory and cooler if you go for non-RGB versions.
Get a regular ATX power supply, that model is a weird form factor.

So I'm confused because of all this convoluted marketing.
Arrow Lake will have an NPU for AI tasks but I obviously have an Antisemitic Micro Devices CPU which doesn't have one.
But I bought a 4080 Super alongside it. So can't I just use the GPU to accomplish the same thing? Doesn't it already mog the upcoming Estrogen™ AI CPUs?

NPUs only make sense for laptops or SBCs where battery life/power consumption matters, any modern GPU will steamroll them regarding performance.

>>102437235
7600 would be a slight upgrade. 7600 XT would be an okay upgrade if the price is right. 7700 XT would be the only noticeable upgrade.

PS2 Emotion Engine and PS3 CELL were nightmares for programmers. the only people who actually got to use it to its full potential were Naughty Dog. People also forget that the reason Sony was so insistent on pushing their custom in the PS2 and PS3 was because they had plans to license out the Emotion Engine and Cell technology for other uses beyond video game consoles.

Kutaragi wanted the PS3 to ship with 1 cell as a cpu and 1 cell as a gpu. Mark Cerny is fucking insane for STILL having only himself know exactly how the PS3 worked and never sharing it with anyone aside from those secret CELL developers at Sony.

They were either falling behind in development, or realized that this was utter fucking stupidity, so they went plan B and asked Nvidia to give PS3's GeForce 7800 was also kind of old, being a pre-unified shaders design that was absolutely obsoleted within a year of the console's release by the 8800, bolted it on, and shipped it.

Mark Cerny wanted PS4 and PS5 to be AMD APUs because it was cheapest and easiest for programmers. any optimizations done for PS4 will just help PC get further ahead

>He points to an amusing video by Linus Tech Tips, which attempted to 'kill' the PlayStation 5 by building a $500 gaming PC that outperformed the console.

>"They had to get a used motherboard," he says. "That was the only way that they could build a PlayStation 5 equivalent for a PlayStation 5 price. And if you're using used parts… well you can get a used PlayStation 5 for eBay for $300-something.

FX-8350 @2GHz, a HD 7850 and a 5000 RPM hard drive are roughly equivalent to a PS4.

Ryzen 7 3700X and an RX5700 which are roughly equivalent to a PS5.

Wasn't DX10 hated?

>>102437409
Yes - it doesn't help that in the early days nvidia basically didn't support it (lmao lets just get it patched out of assassin's creed!) so the number of DX10 games is very small overall and most of the time games supporting it don't really gain anything from it over DX9.

I'm not well versed enough to say with any authority but I wouldn't be surprised if programmable shaders is a major factor.

>>102437395
Athlon 64 was AMD basically having to create a 64bit extension for x86 because Intel was trying to make a proprietary solution called Itanium.
Core2 Duo was the first multicore cpu.
AMD was something like 30% behind in IPC with Bulldozer to catching up to Sandy Bridge with Zen1, catching up to Haswell with Zen+ and catching up to Coffee Lake with Zen2. Then Zen3 they were on top.

Sorry, I forgot to mention I only have 3200mhz ddr4 ram and I think the Ryzen 7600 needs ddr5, right?

Fuck it. What if I went with an matx/atx motherboard instead? I'll just get some cheap used case locally or on ebay.

>>102438144
you could probably find a matx AM4 motherboard cheap enough new or used if you're really desperate, depending on your itx case matx might fit but they weren't forward thinking like that with early itx cases.

>>102437696
I might do 4TB NVME for OS and main storage, and a 250GB SATA SSD I have laying around for secondary storage. I know I'll want 8TB at some point but it's too expensive right now.

>>102437649
If it wasn't €1000, I'd pull the trigger.

Can undervolting a 7800X3D help with coil whine under load? It's audible enough to be annoying without headphones when playing games at above 60 to 90 FPS. Furthermore, does anyone know if switching from HDMI to DP can help with coil whine?

The sound seems to be coming from my motherboard or GPU (audible from behind the motherboard), not my PSU.

>B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI

its probably the GPU or PSU, under-volting the 7800X3D wont help.

Finally tried AFMF2 on the only heavy thing I have right now, TW3 with RT.
And what the fuck? why is it so good? It doesn't feel like playing at 50fps at all, it did feel like that on early DLSS frame gen when I tried it, don't know how it works now.
And I can double fps with in-driver switch? what is this wizardry?

>Am I missing out on a noticeable performance increase?
not really, more on ryzen, less on intel

>>102438682
from the tests I've seen, it entirely depended on the price difference. Past like 3000, bumps in speed were maybe 1-2% fps increase, so if the price difference was marginal, you could have gotten them

>>102438705
Actually I forgot to mention I am a bit nerfed, because I have 2 3200 sticks in dual mode and 2 sticks in about 2166 or something. Not sure if the 3200 run at 3200 because they are paired with slower sticks.
My timing says
15 - 15 - 15 - 35

>>102436524

>>102438770
>Not sure if the 3200 run at 3200 because they are paired with slower sticks
all sticks will run at the same (slower) speed
>15 - 15 - 15 - 35
my guess is that you're running 2133-15-15-15-35
so XMP is not enabled
3200 to 3600 won't do much but 2133 to 3200/3600 will, that's a pretty serious nerf to performance
those slow sticks are likely shit (i assume they're really old) but if you're serious about this the first step is finding out what chips are in your RAM sticks: https://github.com/integralfx/MemTestHelper/blob/oc-guide/DDR4%20OC%20Guide.md#integrated-circuits-ics

>>102438789
All are Kingston Furys. These are from 2016.
It seems it will be much more beneficial to get a pair of 3200 to replace the old and have 4 of the same, than one 3600 pair.

>>102438816

>Kingston Furys
kingston doesn't produce RAM chips
micron, hynix and samsung does
that's why you need to look at the serial number to find out the manufacturer of the chips (which tells you what to expect)
>It seems it will be much more beneficial to get a pair of 3200 to replace the old and have 4 of the same, than one 3600 pair.
it will, but it's not guaranteed that they will play well together (because of the reasons mentioned earlier, for example you could get micron in one kit and hynix in the other kit)
>>102438823
it's fun if you have undiagnosed autism and like playing with numbers, but you don't need to go very far before you hit diminishing returns

What if I save the cash and instead of 4 sticks get 2 x 16GB 3200 ones.

>>102438851
yeah that's the easiest option, do that if you want no headaches

>>102438839
I will look at the chips. And make it right.

>>102438816
If you buy a 2x set & buy a 2x set later, there is no guarantee they work together flawlessly
usually they will, especially if you buy them close together, but there's no guarantee
that's why it's recommended (if you can) to buy all the ram you need at once

I'm almost done assembling, but I have a conundrum - my Cooler Master V750i Gold has a little leaflet that says:
>the power supply unit has a number of software-based functions. In order to make full use of these features via MastePlus+ Software, a special USB Protocol cable is included and must be plugged directly to both the PSU and the motherboard
This was one of the first things I plugged to the PSU, the problem is that the Livemixer only has 2x USB 2.0 headers, so along with the case's usb cable, I'm out of headers, and I need one for the bluetooth.

I can technically leave without bluetooth, and also the 2x front USB slots, but is this alleged sofware any good? What functions does it enable?

>>102438897
I was actually considering going even cheaper on an AMD card but I fell for the ray tracing meme. I'll think about getting the 4070 ti super, but the regular super already seems a bit overkill since I'll be playing at 1080p, at least for now.

I'm out of the loop because I haven't even thought of upgrading the last few years, so I come here asking for advice
My current build
-Ryzen 5 3600
-Radeon RX 590
-A MSI Tomahawk something as motherboard I think
-16 gb of ram
Storage is fine
I survived until now with NO COOLING so this time I'd like to get some good cooling for my poor machine
I also need to change case ideally because the current one is kind of broken and I had to leave a side of it open air, so my components have been gathering dust for the last few months

What's a good budget graphic card? Is the 4060 a good option?
What about processors? Is ryzen still the go to for price/performance?

What is your gaming resolution and games do you like to play? Preliminary budget?

Your base system isn't half bad still.
You can update your MSI board's BIOS and drop in a nice 5700X3D upgrade easy (the jump from Zen 2 to Zen 3 generational performance and the inclusion of a dump truck's worth of extra cache with the -X3D variant will really help smooth out game frametimes). It's cheap on AliExpress right now @ $135:
https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806921974699.html

If taskmanager says you aren't running low on RAM yet no need to add more, but if you are at 80-90% usage you could think about throwing in an extra 2x16GB kit of DDR4-3200 CL16 for $48:

They could, in theory, do a 30xx and announce really good price point but with the tsmc dominance, intel floundering and AI paying up the ass for nvidia gpus theres no real reason for prices going down.

>>102440756
they're horribly cut down versions of the full chip.
5060 is gonna have about 10% of the cores of 5090 so it's gonna be cheap but its not gonna perform well.

Got a case choice between Zalman Z10 and a Aerocool Dryft and its hard to find any reviews and whatnot, is there any real difference to be found between those case dimensions or am I splitting hairs here?

Welp, I gave up trying to get a Pro w5700 or 2060 for $100. I just snagged a 1080 for $70 though. Feels good man.

>>102440999
They're budget cases; unlikely you're going to put 700W worth of components in there so the thermal performance difference will be marginal.

Moving to canada soon and while I feel somewhat safe about bringing GPU/Storage, Mobo/CPU seems like a disaster and the PSU needs a replacement anyway.
Is it worth the extra like 60 bucks to get 7600x and a budget cooler over just OC'ing the 7600 a bit (if that's even needed for 1080p60)?

Naturally you'll want to talk with your lawyer/agency first but it'd probably be way cheaper to build in the US and take it with you.
Per: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/new-immigrants/prepare-life-canada/border-entry/bringing-goods.html
>You don’t have to pay duty on:

>Mobo/CPU seems like a disaster
Shouldn't be a problem if you ship it in the case. The components most at risk of damage are the GPU and CPU cooler. Put them back in their box (or /a/ box if you trashed it) or buy some of those expanding foam bags.

>Is it worth the extra like 60 bucks to get 7600x...
Not for performance reasons. I would recommend an aftermarket cooler for any CPU if you can afford it. Even the cheapest tower models are way quieter than stock.

As for the build, it looks fine enough. Maybe a bit CPU-heavy but that won't hurt anything. Again, if you're in the US your dollar would go a lot further because Canada's PC prices are insane.

>>102441289
Alright, thanks

Is there a way to check whether a PSU is properly functioning without plugging in other components? I've found an Corsair CX 750 in my basement, the thing hasn't been powered on for about 7 years and I'd like to use it in a secondary PC I'm building.

>>102441848
I'm currently in EU and prices are less drastic than US. I was considering stopping by US & then importing it, but I'm fairly sure that'd count as being "on the way" and fall under the 13% import duties.

Looking to grab a GPU that has real raw power as it's real cores have where it's not rigged or faked with trickeries just like muh emotional cores in cpus' or nvidia AI or RTX slop shit.

is 1080 ti is stilt he best in this regard?

it's almost $1000 here wtf

>>102441947
you're gimping yourself with that retarded thinking because the most powerful GPUs available right now also have upscaling and famegen available as options (option means to can turn it off)

>>102441931
>EU
Ah alright. Probably a wash then.

>I was considering stopping by US & then importing it, but I'm fairly sure that'd count as being "on the way" and fall under the 13% import duties.
An interesting proposition. Those components would be ~$560+tax in the US so it'd actually still be cheaper. Plus you might not even get charged if you assembled everything before crossing over - "no officer I built that last year, honest".
Frankly, however, that's a lot of hassle to save like $100 but I'm in favour of anything that involves stiffing the Canadian government.

Dumb question:
Can I update the BIOS directly to the last version?

>>102442075
Yeah, BIOS aren't patched, they're flashed whole. You can also flash a previous version.

>>102441983
>State budget and COUNTRY

>>102442075
In my case, I "had to" update in multiple steps
Maybe it would have worked in one go but it strongly suggested doing it in steps so I did it

My monitor isn't displaying anyhting
The writing on my graphic card is illuminated so I don't think it's a power problem, but the fan isn't starting

Could it be the motherboard's connection to the graphic card? I've tried taking it out and putting it back in

Question
What's considered unsafe in terms of GPU overclocking (nvidia)?
If you just fuck around within the power limit, how the original VBIOS is setup and such, do you still have room to permanently damage the GPU? Or will it crash before it ever gets there?

>>102442425
That PSU is not sized for your case, get an ATX one.

>>102442453
will do. Thank you

>>102441058
No pcie slots for a m.2>pcie board? You just have to be careful about getting chinked into something that takes sata m.2 instead of nvme variants, or getting one with a bunch of m.2 slots but you can only use one because your MB doesn't have bifurication.

aren't they rigged with (((extra stuff))) on hardware/firmware level

any guesses when the 5500x3D comes out? when do AMD usually release stuff?

>>102442640
aliexpress 5700x3d's with the full 8-cores are already available for dirt cheap anon

>>102442433
there is no such thing as unsafe overclocking on nvidia without hardware mods, unless you have a 4090 and are trying to run 500W through the 12vhpwr connector i guess

>>102441911
there are dedicated psu testers you can buy

>>102442703
I see, thanks
Another thing, anything to reliably test memory overclocks on these GPUs? Benchmarks like superposition are somewhat inconsistent on the scores and such

>>102442266
>How do you diagnosticate the issues with your PC?
most boards have diagnostic leds that light up and some have 7-segment displays that displays where its at during the boot process
the most common culprit is usually an outdated bios that cant recognise your cpu or ram, or defective ram and very rarely a defective cpu

>>102442733
use 3dmark to check scores or games to check for performance regressions, and occt's gpu vram test to check for errors

Anons , what are 'prism' fans. Are they better than your regular 120mm?

>>102442686
