I wouldn't be so sure. The card's not out yet, and the viability of RX 8000 depends in part on the quality of FSR4 and additionally on RT performance and of course pricing. If the 8800 XT can perform like the 7900 XTX in RT (in other words, like an RTX 4070), which can then be complimented by high quality ML upsampling in the form of FSR4, it'll at least have a couple of months of viability before Nvidia releases the RTX 5070

Well the rumors aren't looking good for the 5070 because it's going to be on the same node and there's no GB204 die. With the alleged specs of the GB203 and GB205, the 5070 is either going to be a cut down GB203, much stronger than the 4070 but at a higher price, or GB205 and perhaps only barely stronger. Whoever brings 4070ti super/7900xt performance to $500 first gets my money.
>>
>>102527186
>8800xt
They need to release the damn thing ASAP for starters. If it ends up only 7900XT level in raster and 4070 Ti in RT it's going to be btfo by the 5070 about 6 months after release, assuming that AMD take their sweet time and wait until Janaury. At that point their strategy to take market share would fail because it's too little uplift for such a short window of time before becoming obsolete again.
>>
>>102527647
I'm a Windoze user so I can't tell you from personal experience, but from what I've seen they're fine. As in the >>>/g/fglt but of course try to see what Nvidia users say as opposed to the what the AMD users say

>>102527695
I don't think there's any solid rumors about the 5070 yet. RX 8800 XT will almost certainly be first, but again, without good upsampling, it's useless. A 4070 is already as good as a 7900 XTX when upsampling is taken into consideration, and a 4060 Ti is as good as a 7900 XTX if both RT and DLSS are taken into consideration at the same time
>>
>>102527707
>its going to be btfo by the 5070 about 6 months after release
assuming the 8800XT will be $499 and the 5070 doesn't increase in price over the 4070/4070 super it wont be in the same price class, at best it will match the dollar/frame of the 8800XT. this is why its important for AMD to price the 8800XT at $499.
>>
>>102527647
Much better than they used to be, but nvidia still has no multi-monitor VRR support (for wayland, I don't think it's even possible for X11). I don't even think the Nvidia linux driver does frame doubling with VRR on, because momentary stutters that drop below 48fps cause my monitor to go black for a few seconds - in windows it would just double frames to keep the rate above the monitor's minimum. So VRR is not a usable experience for me. This is with a pascal card, I have no idea if things are better or worse for newer hardware.
>>
>>102527797
AMD will fuck it up and price it at $600 even though the 7900xt is already $680 and will probably be $600 by christmas
>>
>>102527707
This. What everyone that says
>You just want AMD to be better competition so you can buy Nvidia for cheaper >:(
fails to understand is that AMD has never successfully had a SIGNIFICANTLY better performing and priced option that wasn't just a $50-100 discount with some associated hardware or software shortcoming for a sustained length of time, certainly not over several generations to make an impact on the market. They've always ended up a a little lacking in features, a little too slow, a little too late, a little too expensive, etc.

>>102527797
That's what we're hoping for, a good $200 price cut in real at-launch terms over street-7900 XT performance is what gets you glowing launch reviews, hype, and sales velocity.
>>
>>102527838
Is VRR a setting you have to set yourself or is it enabled by default? I've never heard of it?
>>
>>102527865
>That's what we're hoping for, a good $200 price cut in real at-launch terms over street-7900 XT performance is what gets you glowing launch reviews, hype, and sales velocity.
Forgot to add AMD needs to stop fearing whether the next gen will cannibalize current SKUs and attempt to always equalize them on price/performance, it's what just killed Zen 5 on launch even if the IPC gains on desktop were a rounding error they could have not made it $100-200 more at every price level over Zen 4. New gens SHOULD obsolete old gens on both perf and price which is why the older gen is old.
>>
>>102527838
>This is with a pascal card, I have no idea if things are better or worse for newer hardware.
It might be better on the new cards that support GSP. I can confirm VRR is flawless with AMD on Wayland, honestly I've had more issues with VRR on Windows (for example sometimes it remains enabled on the desktop after exiting a game).
>>102527901
VRR is FreeSync/G-sync
>>
>>102527931
yep if Zen5 had a $100 cut over Zen4 MSRP the reviews would have been more positive and, Zen4 would have naturally fallen in price to clear out stock.

its freesync/gsync, I'm a KDE user so in a wayland session the option is in the KDE display settings, in X11 you can turn it on in nvidia-settings, or if that doesn't work you might have to configure it in your xorg.conf

It's a holdover from my previous build and the RAM slots are close enough to the CPU that it causes issues with the cooler fans. I was hoping a slightly larger board wouldn't have that issue, though I guess another solution would be to just get lower profile RAM.

If that's all it is, just slightly mount the fan closest to the RAM shifted "up" a little like in picrel to give yourself extra clearance, even using zipties through the fan mount holes if needed to hold it in place. Won't have any real negative effects as total closed airflow isn't affected and is certainly cheaper than buying a whole new board or RAM kit.

Much like XeSS XMX vs dp4a kernels, I think FSR4 can have a mode that runs only on the RX 7000 series' WMMA cores, and a more general, slightly lower quality mode that runs on RX 6000, RTX cards, and Arc cards.

>>102528712
Unfortunately I do

>>102528840
I would go 5600 non-G, or if you want integrated, an i5 12400. The 5600G performs more like an R5 3600, and it's only PCIe 3.0, while you really need PCIe 4.0 for a 4060 because it's only got x8 PCIe lanes and it's designed for 4.0. Additionally you should be getting a B550, as B450 is also 3.0 only in a lot of cases.

>Do I need an expensive cooler for this?
No, you can use the stock cooler that comes with the 5600

The problem is that Nvidia's offerings below the 4070-class are pretty underwhelming. That's not to say they don't perform, indeed a 4060Ti would be perfect for your uses, just that you'll feel a bit gypped spending $400 on what is fundamentally a laptop card.
If you're okay with AMD then the 7700XT offers more raster perf and VRAM for about the same money. At the cost of efficiency and losing DLSS/DLAA/etc. That's a subjective judgement so I'll leave it to you.
Now with that said I will remind you that there's nothing wrong with overkill if you have the budget. It'll last longer before you need to upgrade and maybe you'll find a game that really benefits from RT and such. IMO it's better to set a budget first and build the best machine that fits it.

Are curved monitors a meme?
I look at my local marketplaces online and people sell tons of curved monitors.
Do they want to upgrade or are they shit?
>>
>>102530888
Alright, I'll check out the AMD offerings as well. Honestly the main reason I bumped up to a 4070 is because I keep hearing that the 4060 is underwhelming. Thanks! Was hoping to keep the GPU budget at 600-ish dollars max.
>>
>>102530953
curved VA's are the bestest monitors you can get but that one being 31,5" is too huge for 1440p.

24" for 1080p
27" for 1440p
32" for 4k
>>
>>102530969
Yeah don't get me wrong - it's fine, it works, it's just not much better than the last gen '60 card (and in some ways worse). AMD, of course, have their own issues that you'll need to be aware of.
What's the budget for the whole PC btw? If you're prepared to drop $600 on the card alone then it should be at least in the $1200-1500 range. At that point you might be better off cutting the PC in favour of a 1440p monitor.
>>
Boy I hope your future proof psu didn't come with only a single 16-pin connector. It would be a reaaaaaaaaal shame otherwise.
>>
>>102531023
Yeah pretty much was prepared to drop 1200-1500 bucks on it, what are some issues with AMD? Not sure if I'd like a 1440p monitor since I live in an apartment, but maybe I can bump some extra cash for it. Will a 4060Ti handle that with no issues?

>>102531039
>what are some issues with AMD?
The big one is the drivers; they tend to be pretty buggy at launch and game-specific updates aren't always stable either. It's generally fine if you know how to DDU and revert but I understand if you don't want to deal with that. You've got to pick your poison.
Aside from that they are less efficient this gen and obviously lack Nvidia's proprietary features. Of course you have said you don't want DLSS/RT, so that value-add matters less, and I agree that they're not really valuable at 1080p. At 1440p though DLSS gets much better. Maybe enough to tip the scales.

>Not sure if I'd like a 1440p monitor since I live in an apartment
24" vs. 27" isn't massive but fair enough if you've doped it out already. If you're dead-set on 1080p then I'd keep the budget to the lower end of the scale.

Here's some example builds at each extreme of your budget:
$1500 1440p
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hj9r28

$1200 1080p
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3MY9h3

I've left a little room for minor upgrades. Maybe you want a 2TB SSD, a nicer case, or a better monitor.

>Will a 4060Ti handle that with no issues?
You absolutely can push it to 1440p but you'll need to be diligent with settings.
>>
>>102531131
Thanks anon! Might bump it to 1440p and get a 4060Ti. I like fiddling with settings anyway, makes the game feel my own if that makes sense.
>>
>>102531151
Sure. A good monitor will last through multiple PC upgrades. In that case I would suggest getting something better than the basic NanoIPS I listed. Try for something with at least 1200:1 contrast like the Dell in the OP. In fact it's cheaper than the LG right now so no reason not to.

Getting driver timeouts when waking from sleep at 144hz. Not always, at points I've gone a full week where it woke up fine. But then after rebooting after updates it will timeout every time after waking.

If I set it to 120hz or lower it's fine. Anyone seen something like this?
>>
>>102531327
I know on AMD GDDR memory GPUs (HBM does not have this issue) AMD clocks the memory high when the refresh rate is set above 120hz, something about it rounding evenly into memory timing refreshes or whatever.
Anyway on my 5700x3d/5700XT system, nothing of the sort, wake/sleep has been good sorry.

Why is so hard to choose a motherboard for AM5? Which one would you choose? I want to run it 24/7 for the next 10 years. Asrock rack motherboard would be ideal as it has no rgbt shit and servers run 24/7. Is Pro RS adequate? B650 PG lightning any good?

Asrock B650M-HDV
Asrock B650 PG Lightning
Asrock B650 Pro RS
Asrock B650E Steel Legend

I was set on Steel legend, but since buildzoid likes Pro RS and I get to save a lot more monies, I'm thinking Pro RS. Other than that HDV and PG Lightning cost the same, HDV, sligtly more expensive.
>>
>>102531382
Hmm, it's kinda strange. I can see all sorts of issues when I search for the problem.

I don't really intend to use that high refresh on the desktop anyway but it's the only thing on this new system that actually causes an issue.

the 7800X3D has dropped back under MSRP, AMD must have sent a bunch by air freight.

Big difference between "will boot with ECC memory installed" and "actually uses the error correcting bit". Almost all AM5 boards do the former with only a handful in the latter camp. Check out L1techs for more info on which consumer boards properly run ECC (and weep at the expense).

I'm not? I don't game so I don't need the biggest CPU cooler. AMD stock cooler looks pretty capable. I can always buy one after the fact if it isn't.
>>
>>102534117
Noctua is a meme because they're expensive, in any fan or cooler comparison they always come out on top as the quietest, the average person doesn't need a Noctua cooler, only people who really care about noise do, they're perfect for some richfag that doesn't care about spending $300 for a PSU

ECC without Registration might as well not exist. Go Epyc anon.

>>102534102
I picked 7900.
I like to maximize for TDP/core count because I run my PC all day for work and use a lot of processes, not a lot of GPU power but I do need the CPU performance.
>>
>>102534182
and lower TDP I guess means less electric usage, lower bills. over 5-6 years of use that adds up.

Why? From what I understand, RDIMMs are when you need lots of memory. Why do I need RDIMM if I can't use more than 32 gigs?

Took my old PC parts (i5-9400F, 1060) and bought a chink mATX case and thew together a neat little backup PC

The case is alright but the handle is pretty much useless (too thin and cuts into my hand)

Also wish there's a version without the glass

I’m leaning towards an Intel CPU but I’m concerned about the degradation 13/14th gen chips are facing. Would you recommend going for a 12900 or should I wait for the Arrow Lake release?

I'm gonna pay 46 convered eurogoycoins for 1Gbit
cheapest I could find, I thought it was gonna be 60 eur but I was mistaken
no goy housing here has infrastructure to support over 1Gbit, maybe the new housing, I have not checked unironically

What hardware do you have to support that connection? does it even work on consoomer hardware to throughput 10Gigs?
seems to bottleneck 5-7 somewhere

My hardware only does 2.5Gbit, but that also happens to be the minimum guaranteed speed in my contract so it's worth it anyway, considering the price. I do have the option of renting proper equipment from my ISP but I'd have no use for it, I only have a PC and two servers.

pcbg frens, i want to build myself a compact mAtx PC for around 700-800e because my xeon/gtx 1060 shitbox just died. so far i came up with this

Ryzen 7 5700X3d (130-150€)
Thermalright Phantom Spirit (40€)
Artic PWM P12 5x Pack (25€)
Used mATX Motherboard (40-50€)
2x16Go 3000/3200Mhz (55€)
WD Black SN770 2To (105€)
Used 3070 Ti (300€)
Cooler Master MWE Bronze 750W V2 (55€) or Cooler Master GX II ATX 3.1 750W (105€)
Still debating which case i should get but i want compact mAtx

i have some questions :
- which compact matx case should i get
- is the 5700x3d the right choice? im debating getting a 7600 but im just going to be gaming
- can i cheap out on the PSU and get the 50e one?
- are there any other things i can save money on?
>>
>>102535225
>You can fit a cooler 2x the size and 3x the price of a Thermalright to get 0.5C better temps (if at all).
I'm convinced that "people" who build small and silent PCs are just iFags in denial.
>>
>>102535207
don't know, just used apps and surfing and I blew through all my saved bandwidth too, I try to keep it conservative and not use video streaming and retard shit like that
and my current carrier does not even limit speed when its out its just completely off, which fucks me up
considering the PHOON is a fucking necessary commodity to have on you with internet access for various crap (In my SoCiETY) it's currently full retard not not have an unlimited contract here, like how is this even usable or common? Not to mention it's expensive as fuck still
FUCK mobile carriers (in my country)
capped mobile bandwidths is such a fucking retarded thing it's unbelievable

>>102535254
I mean even with 10Gig consoomer routers it does not cap out
seems like a waste but anyway
>my building is close to 500 years old
I mean the wiring and other hardware in the commie block buildings don't support 1Gigs+
the fiber is there just bottlenecked
but that is good compared to the dogshit solutions some private housing companies in this town have and have had for years, they don't even have fiber, that they had 20 years ago across the street
actually retarded unironically

I hope you are just acting retarded. Cooler 2x the size is also going to run at lower fan rpm. Low stress on fans, low noise. I'd fit the biggest cooler that'll fit.

Found arctic p12 and p14. They are the cheapest. F12 and F14 cost as much as noctua. Are P12 and P14 any good?
>>
>>102535772
They're fine. Perform well, especially for the money, but have a resonance at ~1000RPM. It's probably fine in a case but you'll need to spend more if you're a noise freak.
>>
>>102535624
Just buy directly from Amazon and record yourself unboxing it retard
>>
>>102535965
Not a noise freak, I wanted to buy a server and put it in the room, but couldn't find good deals. If I get ECC on AM5, I'm going to be really happy.
>>
>>102535993
If it's going to be in the same room as you 24/7 then I would suggest some more premium fans. Noctua, BeQuiet, NoiseBlocker, Scythe, etc. - the usual suspects. Big QoL upgrade for like $50. Of course a big reason for building a server is so that you /don't/ have it in your room so maybe consider that instead.
>>
>>102535772
>F12 and F14 cost as much as noctua
you're probably looking at value pack of 5 bro

As games get more and more VRAM demanding, more games will have trouble. It's worth it to spend a few extra bucks on a PCIe 4.0 system if you're getting any x8 lane graphics card that's designed for PCIe 4.0
