>>103221382>5080 ti 512bit 16gb vram gddr7for me its this one in about 2 years or however long they delay it after the budget versions release
>>103221375>32gb of vram is not enough for youbro what are you playing
>>103221382>5090>32gb Please PLEASE be true.
>>103221401There's no game that uses that much VRAM, but AI and really high-end 3D rendering can surpass that amount.
will my waitfagging pay off or is the 50 series all hype?
>9950x3d>94gb 6000CL30 ram>5090>PCIE5 nvme>240hz DWQHD monitorsman i cannot WAIT for january holy fuckit's going to be a nice upgrade from 3090 and 10900k
>>103221445I keep hearing blackedwell is coming out in December Are you sure it's still January?
>>103221455why would they rush when there is a CES in mid january where they can steal the thunder
>>103221333she looks better with her hair like that
>>103221431then i guess you better pay up for 2 5090s since you want to use ai idkas long as youre not doing ai art i dont care
>>103221455Blackwell is competing in the low end, they have nothing to show at CES.
>>103221477Idk, there's no compitition and people want the next lineup more than everPersonally I just want to snag one before the tariffsNot looking to spend over $2500 on a gpu>>103221493Are you implying there's no 5090?
>>103221499nevermind me, I mixed up battlemage and Blackwell, brainfart
>>103221382So 5080 is bare minimum next gen. Painful. Anything lower than 16gb vram at this point brand new is a bad buy
>>103221382Yes, but WHY. I just can't see why anyone would bother with 50s.
>>103221399Was there a 4080 Ti? I bought the 4090 when I realised there would never be one. What makes you expect a 5080 Ti? I think it's even less likely than the 4080 Ti was. Nvidia lost interest in gaming. They make SO MUCH more money with AI.
>>103221541>They make SO MUCH more money with AI.They make so much hype with AI, money not so much. Everyone at Nvidia is selling out because they know the stock is grossly overpriced.
>>103221431> There's no game that uses that much VRAMI have 20 GB of texture mods for Cyberpunk and it could be more if only my 4090 had more VRAM.
I need my faster renders and sd porn brosMy oven is outdated and I need to COOK
would a 1000w PSU be enough for 4090? pairing it with the 9800x3d. should I also consider 1200w if I want to future proof my build?
>>103221333I graduated from one of the nerdiest colleges in the US and there were plenty of CS, engineering, and science students that looked like young Lisa Su.
>>103221443Worst case, the RTX 50 series should offer a 15~20% gen-over-gen improvement for the 5060~5080 tier of cards.These chips are all deliberately cut down and disabled to leave enough room for easy mid-gen refreshes and a lower bar for next gen (RTX 60) gains.Or they'll just keep adding more features to compensate.
>>1032214452x48 = 96 GB RAM!I too am waiting for the 9950X3D, not so much for the 5090 since my 4090 isn't that bad yet.The 9950X3D will be the fastest gaming CPU in the world thanks to better silicon and the new turbo mode in AGESA that prevents the overhead of inter-CCD coms. I know it won't come with double VCache but this wouldn't be useful anyway. I want 16 cores to boost my productive apps.
Built this PC out of spare parts my friends had lying around. Then the processor died and I had to change a bunch of shit for cheap. Tell me, how bad is it?
>>103221598Isn't 50 on a sinilar node to 40? It's not like 30 to 40 where you jumped from samshit 8nm to tsmc 4/5nm, unless 50 series are somehow boosted to 4ghz
>>103221571Should be enough if you stick to AMD as their CPUs are efficient, hell you could potentially pull it off with 850W but 1k should be enough for your build unless you wanna overclock.
>Intel ES CPUs are dirt cheap>mobos cost arm and a leg:/
>>103221625>63c idleBro....
>>103221523I'm pretty sure there will be a 5070 with 16GB but no 5080 with 24GB ever. Probably not even with 20GB. Similar to 40.
>>103221382>could easily give the 5060 16gb of gddr6>will not, because they know it'd be too good of a dealI hate technology.
>>103221661a 5070 with 16 would be the sweet spot for sure. 12 feels lacking even though its better than 8. 8 in 2025 is downright insulting. These modern devs can't hold themselves back
I will be upgrading from R5 5600 to 9800X3D and RTX 3070 to 5080
Gonna build a PC and I have a windows 10 usb laying around, can I install win 10 on it then update to windows 11 and redeem a cd key?
>>103221382so wait 1 more gen for 48gb got it
>retards still talking about VRAM amounts that are incompatible with known bus widthsWhen will you fags learn?
>>103221635It's the middle of summer bro, things get hot. I was asking about the specs though.
should I sell my 3080ti or 3090 before Blackwell release?
>>1032215415080ti or 5080 super whatever they want to call it
>>1032215711000W is optimal for 4090 + 9800X3D + several SSD + 7 fans/AIOhttps://www.bequiet.com/en/psucalculator
>>103221673>RTX 3070 to 5080I might do the same, or I might move to ayyymd since they are less stingy with vram on their midrange cards. we'll see where things fall next year
>>103221625its more over than ever before
>>103221703>middle of summerNIGGA WE ARE HALFWAY THROUGH NOVEMBER. BUY A CALENDAR.
>>103221668> 5070 with 16 would be the sweet spot for sureFor $799. The Ti would be $999, the 5080 $1299 and the 5090 $1999 or 2199 (all MSRP not street)

>>103222016i get the impression im paying extra for the corsair brand so im leaning towards Montech which ive only heard about because it's apparently high tier on the Cultists PSU list
>>103221971It has to match the 4090's performance to even be relevant, there's simply no way they'll let that happen when it still sells for close to $2000 daily.They have nothing to lose by pricing the 5080 high at launch, if anything it'll just trigger compulsive buyers into going for the 5090 instead.Hobbyists don't care about pricing these days, even in those threads you'll find people ready to spend $2500 to upgrade their current 4090s.People just seem to shit money these days.
>>103222046>Hobbyists don't care about pricing these days, even in those threads you'll find people ready to spend $2500 to upgrade their current 4090s.indeed>>103222046i dont its all gonna be on credit LOL
I have 5 years old ryzen 2600 and gtx 1660 Ti I can only upgrade one component.Should I get a ryzen 5800x or radeon 6600?
Why do people still use the cultist psu list when you can just check Cybenetics own database?
>>103222066both are super holding you back, the jump from 2600 to 3600 even was massive. that said, if you can only pick one thing go with the gpu and do a drop in cpu upgrade when you can to 5700x3d
Any silicon that's used for gaming is wasted silicon...We need more silicon for AI
>>103222033i have 4 corsair PSUs with 0 issues ever so im not even looking at lists
>>103222054You're telling me it's only $20 monthly for 15 years? DEAL!!!
Mobo + ram recommendations for the 9800X3D?
>>103222109b650 steel legend2x16gb 6000cl30-36-36-76 ram
>>103222111>b650 steel legendThis board is fucking unobtainum right now
>>103222032surely you are not listing your prices without tax when posting here RIGHT
>>103222116then get the x870 pro rs or x870steel legend
>>103222109ASRock Nova or the Gigabyte Auros Pro or whatever that one is that's the same price. The Nova is better, but good luck getting one. You gotta be on top of that shit. RAM choice will come down to what the motherboard can use. Right now I am taking the time to trying to push for avoiding 2x32 gigs unless you do rendering and modeling and shit. I am also advising you not to get 2x16 gigs because that's the old standard. They make 2x24 gig sticks now, there just isn't a lot but Corsair Terminator is one of the brands, and that's a pretty safe bet.
>>103222111>b650 steel legendIs that really enough for the 9800x3D and moderate amounts of tuning? I don't bother with hard OC on AMD chips but I really like tightening RAM timings, CO and stuff so I'm wondering if a X870 mobo would be better for that.Would love splurging for the X870E but the price is insane in EU, cheapest available rn is 400€+.
what are people buying higher-end mobos for if most of them will not bottleneck the most power hungry AMD (which is not saying much to be fair)
>>103222117UHHHHHHHHHHH
>>103222145yes its enough. there is no point overspending on a motherboard when all of them can run 6400cl28 if your IMC is good enough9800x3d is also factory unlocked so you don't have to shell out $400 for a board with eCLK generator
>>103222149Brainwashed by marketingSame reason people buy 1000W PSU when they only have a R5 7600X & 4070S
>>103222149mostly for aesthetics or for a specific I/O feature that cheaper boards don't have
>>103222149pcie5 support for future nvme and gpu upgrade in 1-2 years when 5080 super comes out2 cpu lane nvme slots
>>103222171A 4090 doesn't saturate PCIe Gen4x16There is no need for PCIe Gen5x16 for GPUs for at least another generation
>>103222171>pcie5 support for future nvme and gpu upgrade in 1-2 years when 5080 super comes outb650 SL already supports this as well as most other b650e and x870 boards>2 cpu lane nvme slotsironically only available on 600 series boards since 4 lanes were repurposed to usb4 on 800 series. so 2 cpu lane slots would mean dropping to x8 on the gpu on those newer boards.
uhm ACKSHUALLY nvidia are our friends and have never increased prices gen over gen
>>103222176x670e chads win again
>>103222165I'd lick her pussy till its dry.
>>103222194It's dry as-is though
>>103222175i dont plan on upgrading from my 9800x3d for several generations so may aswell get a mobo to support next gen gpu
>>103222149Yeah I don't really see the point in spending more than like 180-200 on a mobo ever. Hell there are even very good boards around 150 these days unless you have very specific needs
I am going to buy the 5080 eventually. I have never owned a card above the xx70 series, so ive never plugged in more than 2 PCIE cables to a card. I see that the 4000 series and above uses a different kind of connector that takes multiple incoming cables and brings it down to 1 plug for the card.My question is: Lets say the 5080 takes THREE PCIE connectors, and necks it down to the ONE connector for the card. Do I need to run 3 separate PCIE cables from my PSU to each connector, or can i use the split PCIEs on one cable together? cus all the PCIE cables on my PSU split into 2, so i COULD just use 2 cables, 2+1 to go into the splitter. Should I, or should I buy a third spare for my PSU so each connector is its own cable?
How far can i push my ryzen 3600? Does it work with a 4070 super without dropping 1 million frames?
>>103222111why not a higher clock speed ram?
>>103222222you have to now
>>103222197that's where my saliva would do its work. give me my 9800x3d + 7900xtx, please.

I'm gonna consoom a battlemage this year
I got paid some money and I need some new stuff.I'm thinking of grabbing a 5700X3D, got Fuma 2 to cool it down and 5600X is already giving me bottlenecks in certain games like Darktide 2 where I hit 70% GPU use when shit hits the fan. I only have RT settings left to increase which makes me hit 100% use but the game just runs bad with it. Plus for less than $200, it sounds like an extremely good deal without having to replace Motherboard & RAM and can last me for another few years.I'm kinda bummed on 1TB storage too and 2TB drives seem affordable now. I paid $130 something for my SX8200 back in the day (late 2020). What's a decent 2TB NVMe to get these days? I can grab 990 Pro which honestly seems cheap for a top of the line product, but there are so many models now.I also need a new mouse as my Deathadder Essential is shitting the bed due to bad scroll wheel. I like the shape of Deathadder for my HUEG hands so the new V3 (wired) seems like a decent option but I'd like to hear /g/'s thoughts.>>103222225It'll be a huge difference. Even my 5600x which is a lot better than a 3600 struggles to drive a 3070ti in certain games. 4070S will even be further bottlenecked.
>>103222316anon the usb4 support will save them
>>103222335Some people can't even install a CPU into a socket properlyThere's a lot of variability in people's capabilities
>>103222316No. He doesn't understand the graph he posted the last time he said this. The four lanes are not reserved for USB 4.0, rather they reserve bandwidth for them on SOME BOARDS. If you check out some reviews of Bifurcated boards like the Nova then you will see they no problem hitting x16 and using more than one NVME in the Gen 5 slots. The bandwidth sharing only occurs when you actively utilize the USB 4.0 ports. If you don't do that, then it doesn't happen.
Are the benchmarks on PassMark's website any good?
>>103222316Yes it's real. Basically 800 series boards, without stealing GPU lanes, are only able to run two M2 at full speed (x4 from CPU, x4 from chipset) unthrottled by lane sharing while 600 series boards can do three (x8 from CPU, x4 from chipset)Even the commonly skilled x870e is limited by this cuckery while the older cheaper b650 steel legend isn't
>release in December >holidays craze>release in January >CES crazeWhat shall it be, Nvidia?
>>103222368Commonly shilled*Also pic is of the Nova's pcie lane breakout
>>103222335Honestly no idea, I was also surprised at how easy it was to mount. Like yeah, maybe if you're a caveman you might overtighten the screws or slip with your screwdriver but that would be user error more than the AIO being hard to mount.

>>103222007>>103221333I would let Lisa Su peg me if she stayed with me for a weekend in bed.Saturday would just be constant fucking with cuddles and kissing in between. Not leaving bed, save for necessary piss breaks before quickly returning to plunge back under the covers, taking refuge from the cold in each other's warmth.Breakfast wouldn't cross our minds until 9pm, and we'd both lose 5lbs from fucking and starving together, only ingesting each other's spit. She'd continue to glow in her black latex, shoelace, and sheer satin outfits. Beaming like an idol.Sunday morning we'd leave bed and go outside in oversized winter jackets and boots. She'd hand me a cigarette and light both of ours like in a film. I have never even smoked before, but rolling with the dizzying theme of degeneracy, and medical grade limerence (and not to mention dietary hunger), I wouldn't stir. Trying not to cough, I'd glance at her for indirect instruction while she gazed at the sky across the silent, dim, snowy street.Come Sunday evening, both our lustful teenage hearts, anticipating the big Monday to come - meetings with PMs, TSMC engineers, press conferences - real life - would have her departure whirling in both our minds, or at least just mine.Finally, when I'm nodding off at 8pm from hunger and lethargy from the cigarettes, sore jaw, and empty balls, she'd dress in her usual grey tailored blazer and trousers, pack up her lingerie soiled in spunk, saliva and sweat, and quietly vanish when I thought she was just out of bed using the washroom.I'd wake up Monday morning, the curtain allowing an inch of sunlight to cast on the foot of my bed, children shouting outside, and the clock hands piercing the deafening stillness indoors, not knowing what the fuck is real, except that my weekend with Lisa Su would never happen again, cus she's just one of those girls.

>>103222417low amount of USB 3.0 ports and some lane sharing if you populate all NVMEs, but outside of that it's good. only wish they made the same board but with 2 ram slots only
>>103222435I don't need that many ports, but what's the deal with only having 2 dimm slots? I don't think I've ever used more than 2 slots in my 20+ years of custom builds but curious.

is there a point in getting an x ryzen if I'm not overclocking? My mobo supports up to 5700/5800
>>103222427thx
>>103222449Boards with only two slots supposedly overclock better, but tinkering with your memory for 1% real world improvement is severe autism.

>>103222466>ITXid be doing this again if prices werent dumbthis time im giving my NR200 build to my dad and im building from scratch with a lian li A3, i end up saving like $300+ off the mobo and psu i can put into the gpu insteadsounds like an exaggeration but it's not because no one makes cpu+mobo bundles with ITX boards
>>103222449because 1 DIMM per channel is more efficient than 2DPC, effectively making it a lot easier to stabilize higher clocks with RAM. if you're just slightly lucky you could be running 8000mhz on a 9800x3D and that would outperform the standard 6000-6400mt low timings.populating 4 slots with DDR5 doesn't even work properly most of the time and almost nobody will run more than 64gb so might as well just ditch the useless RAM slots.>>103222466what are some decent mITX boards for AM5? I think the issue I'll run into is that they're all going to be expensive as fuck.sticking a 4090 or similarly oversized card to a mITX sounds funny as fuck though
>>103222494actually after BIOS update a few weeks back I forgot to do that, didn't notice any diference.
>>103222504
>>103222478Ryzen X chips "overclock" themselves, they're exactly what you should get if you don't want to fuck with settings yourself. If your board supports Zen 3 it probably supports all of them, and your options should be either the 5600X, the 5700X3D or maybe the 5950X for heavy productivity, disregard the others.

If you're from the US you should have access to ridiculous open box deals from Best Buy and others, or even better sales from manufacturers.There were some $400-$500 WOLEDs that reviewers talked about for a bit, try to look for them if that's in your budget.
>>103222537I can buy it, but I can't feel good about buying it. That's the issue.

the nice thing about ITX is you only have like 3 choices for the mobo and like 2 choices for the PSU
>>103222599the list of nice things about ITX ends there. just get a laptop.
>>103222599>having fewer choices is a good thing
>>103222149For me it's really just USB ports. I have a lot of shit running out of the back of my PC. I do have an expansion card, but only for 2 power delivery ports for the sake of keeping a VR headset from draining while playing. >>103221704>>103222326I'd sell the 3090. Larger amount of people buying(for AI shit because of the vram), and it's not a great card to have in the long term because of its power spiking issues. Put that money towards your 50 series whatever, but keep the 3080ti in the event of early teething issues. Always good to keep at least some old hardware in the event of sudden death/DoA's.
>>103222624no need to keep old GPUs anymore, all CPUs come with iGPU now.
>>103222629Must just be an old habit I've stuck with then. I always keep my previous GPU while giving the one before that away to friends/relatives who might use it.

>>103222599The downsides of ITX:>More expensive for less stuff>Worse thermals>Cases more difficult to work withThe only appeal for ITX is if you live in a space the size of a closet. Minimalism is a scam.

Dear PC Buildan' Black Friday is coming up, I want to make an AM5 build in a small form factor that's as cheap as I can get it. I'm not against spending extra on the case but I'd like a cheap mobo, cheap RAM, the cheapest processor that's relatively 'new', hopefully under $600Can it be done? This PC will mostly be bolted to the bottom of my standing desk at home as a work PC and doesn't need gaming capability, it'll be mostly running some flavor of Linux.
>>103222691>doesn't need great performance>doesn't want to spend much>wants the shiny new thingJust go AM4, consoomer
>>103222691you ahve space under your giant standing desk, use it to put a proper case theresmall factor is expensive.
>>103222691Just get one of those mini PCs by Beelink or similar chink company that uses Zen 4 mobile parts
Computers just arent fun anymore; its all "15 percent faster and version 6.9 of ai upscaling technique" year after year.
>>103222719Computers were never fun, only the software you (single-handedly) could make with them, and we hit the limit of that years ago.
>>103222744i disagree, both hardware and software were fun but i agree with the second part.
im trying to make a development/3d workstation and so far ive come up with the following:CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 3.7 GHz 12-Core Processor ($226.96 @ Amazon) CPU Cooler: Scythe Mugen 6 60.29 CFM CPU Cooler ($39.99 @ Amazon) Motherboard: MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard ($108.99 @ Amazon) Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws V 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 CL16 Memory ($35.99 @ Amazon) Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws V 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 CL16 Memory ($35.99 @ Amazon) Storage: Western Digital WD_Black SN850X 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive ($139.99 @ Amazon) Storage: Western Digital WD_Black SN850X 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive ($139.99 @ Amazon) Video Card: Gigabyte WINDFORCE OC GeForce RTX 4060 8 GB Video Card ($299.99 @ Amazon) Case: Jonsbo Jonsplus Z20 MicroATX Desktop Case ($84.99 @ Newegg Sellers) Power Supply: Corsair RM750e (2023) 750 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply ($99.99 @ Amazon) Total: $1212.87ive already got peripherals and os is gonna be debian. anything im missing? anything to improve? pcpartpicker is whining about a bios update for cpu/mobo but thats fine.

>>1032227654080 Super
>>103221914Initial street price will be ASTRONOMIC until all whales are milked then will go down with increasing supply and stay moderately above MSRP, just like we witnessed with 4090. Of course all cards will be several hundreds more than the previous gen.

Never built a computer from the ground up before. In Amercia and looking to spend around $1500.https://pcpartpicker.com/list/rk8nQd Is this build fine? Just gonna be used for gaming.
>>103222629>>103222646i have my 2 previous builds ready to go at any time (third one i gave to my dad)

>>103222762>you would really benefit from the 5950X (buy used if you must, it's fine)>current cooler meta is Thermalright>just go with 2 memory sticks
>>103222046> you'll find people ready to spend $2500 to upgrade their current 4090sIt's not considered an upgrade if you build a whole new PC, right?
Is $170 good for 2 SSDs, 870 Evo, 3Tb total?
>>103222762will a 4060 be enough? idk if it will, just curious>>103222775neither will i. I got an xbox, barely touch that shit. And ive played more 360 games on it than current gen ones.
>>103222102> $20 monthly for 15 yearsWould you get a payment plan like this for a fucking toy?
>>103222805Reminder that not even the 9800X3D can get 0.1% lows above 60 FPS in some modern games.
>>103222175> A 4090 doesn't saturate PCIe Gen4x16And yet you will lose some frames if you cut the bandwidth in half. Who wants this if it can be evaded?
>>103222294> y'all> taste
>>103222842true suffering
>>103222765> 1440p ultra gaming4090 is just enough for sufferable fps.
>>103222815id prefer avoiding buying used for the sake of convenience. first pick on thermalright saves a few bucks; any word on their fans? im planning on also buying a few noctuas for case fans right off the bat, but its been 5+ years since ive done any of this so im not sure if theyre still worthwhile for fans. regarding memory, my big thing is total cost. is 2 sticks vs 4 really significant for performance? the two sets of ripjaws seemed cheaper than a 2x16bg set, but maybe i didnt look hard enough.>>103222830im curently rocking an rx 480, so anything is an improvement on my workflow. i dont anticipate doing anything super heavy, but being able to use viewport rendering with blender that doesnt take 20 seconds per frame would be a massive upgrade. the 4060 is very conservative because im kinda poor atm.
>>103222842human eyes cant see 0.1% lows
>>103222888Yes you can, there is visible stutter. Obviously the severity is dependent on the game.
>>103222915Just realized he said .1%... Regardless, I'm pretty sure he's referring to 1% lows.
>>103222876its ridiculous that a 8gig vram card is 300 in 2024
>>103222943and its going to be 420+ in 2025 :')
>>1032221262x24gb is the same price as 2x32GB and I see a lot of 48gb kits with shit timings. This RAM recommendation isn't making a lot of sense, always buy as much RAM as you can afford. New number isn't automatically better. The real recommendation should be: stick to two dimms even if you think your board/CPU can handle 4. And always aim for CL30 6000Mhz at a minimum. There is genuinely nothing more to know. Anything else is a cherry on top that one would not notice, especially on the 9800X3D.
Is PCpartpicker a good indication of prices?It seems this is a good price to get these. >>103222827

Hello anons. I'm planning on buying some Noctua fans to replace my Corsair ones.Do Noctua fans go on sale during Amazon's Black Friday sale? Thanks
>>103223064Smaller market compared to m2 nvme drives. People who want them buy them regardless of sales since there's not much of a choice
>>103223071check price history
>>103223070The MB is defs a scam but its also white which is clearly fundamentally important for performance.
>>103223078actually would be if the pc was in the sun
>>103223076I looked up the NF-A12x25 on Camelcamelcamel. This is the price history. I'm looking to buy the NF-A14x25 G2 because it's 140mm, and it's a new fan. Not much movement on the G2's price. Do you think it's worth paying for Noctua when there's Arctic P14? My mind's settled on the Noctua, but I am open to suggestions and alternatives
>>103223091>actually would be if the pc was in the sunFunny you mention that because that's exactly an issue in my office.
>>103223100noctua is for if the onboard audio in your brain is faulty and cant filter white noise

>>103223118suisex
>>103222126> Corsair TerminatorDid you mean Dominator? This is the faster memory from Corsair that is not needed with Rzyen. The Vengeance with 6000MHz is enough.
>>103223116I have a UPS that's been running 24/7 for 4 years now. I'm used to it by now. I wanted to get Noctua because it's a premium fan, and there's no RGB, so there's less cable clutter.Corsair's new QX140 is so expensive for a clutter-free RGB solution. I'm also looking into Lian Li's Uni Fan SL Infinity.
lg c4 42" dropped down to 820€ now herethat or a 32" qdoled? very tempting
>>103222876Having only 2 sticks helps with compatibility and stability, but if 4 are really your cheapest option it's ok.Noctua fans are overpriced but for cramped systems they're not a bad choice.>>103222920No, I actually meant 0.1% lows. I'm an autist who uses a stupidly high DPI setting so even microstutters are noticeable sometimes.
>>103222149Five M.2 slots, USB4, no lane sharing with GPU. Sold!

>>103222833your supposed to pay for only the first 2 years and then default on the rest of the payments and hope they forget about it in 20 years
>>103223189> one big driveThere are no 20TB NVMe SSD yet. Are there? I probably couldn't afford them anyway. And I like to use different drives for different tasks to speed up my work. I usually have at least 4 drives, up to 6 with OS using a dedicated smaller drive.
>>103223153>no lane sharing not possible on 800 series desu
>>10322314142" is big as a desktop monitor first of all, don't bother if your desk isn't deep enough.C4 doesn't allow you to disable as much "panel saving" features as the older C1/C2 so the dynamic brightness can get distracting.Some quirks like having to use a remote to turn it on or off and the settings being all over the place (but with much better color control than monitors).C4 and most WOLEDs also have a noticable green tint.https://www.reddit.com/r/OLED_Gaming/comments/1gew714/a_deep_dive_into_the_lg_c4_42_green_tintHow much are 32" QD-OLEDs in your country?

>>103223221I said "no lane sharing with GPU"!All five M.2 can be populated and used at their full speed w/o taking lanes away from the GPU slot. Only the slowest of the M.2 slots (PCIe Gen 3x2) shares lanes with the second PCIe x16 slot that would run in 2x mode if used instead of the M.2.
>>103223221comparison to the b650 steel legendx870/x870e gets mogged because of their requirement to have usb4
>>103223279>All five M.2 can be populated and used at their full speed w/o taking lanes away from the GPU slot. Only the slowest of the M.2 slots (PCIe Gen 3x2) shares lanes with the second PCIe x16 slot that would run in 2x mode if used instead of the M.2.I'm aware. The problem is the stealth downgrade that noone's talking about mainly, the loss of x4 lanes to usb4 that you'll probably never use
>>103223071don't waste your time

Why don't they make more cases without a glass side panel. It's crazy, I feel like I need to pay extra to not have it. It doesn't even affect me either, because my computer is on my left, but I just feel like an idiot knowing there is a glass panel out of everyone's view against the wall.
>>103223373thats why i got the fd north meshit didnt cost extra and in fact cost less than the TG version
>>103221891Ask the manufacturer to sell you one of those side panels or tell them that you just bought one of those cases and the side panel came scratched
>>103223300Of course the lanes are scarce and you need to consider what you prefer. If you know that you won't need USB4 then you can get a X670E instead. People who need both x16 slots functional for high-bandwidth GPUs won't buy a Nova either. But the Nova is the best all-round and poor guy's workstation motherboard and was initially to be had for just €347 here, cheaper than X870E premium boards. A no brainer.

DLSS is the present and the future and AMD is even moving to ML upscaling as well.Nvidia cards are also way more efficient. A 4090 with a fps limit would consume less wattage than a 4070 let alone AMD ones who all feel like they take at least double for every task.

>>103223754I been using my 6700k for 8 years and its only now starting to become slowIs it really that bad?>>103223757No im not a tech autist
>>103223753having two drives instead of one is far worse for your system latency, as in your 1% lows in games than having just a single one that runs both the OS and the game. Factany incurred cost can be mitigated by buying a much faster SSD hence why nvme
>>103223766this too, I'd replace all my drives with m.2 if I could afford it. I got 3 slots and use only one.
>>103223770Anon I don't want to insult people as soon as I wake up but you're saying this: I am dumb and lazy and also a mass quoting retard.Tell me that I'm wrong.
>>103223782Just answer the question please I dont wanna fucking play games of who knows best like I said im a tech noob thats why I ask
>>103223770>NoReal answer then, 14900k is dead and nobody should ever buy it aside from melting inside it draws like 300w to get near X3D chips. Intel is nearing bankruptcy, and 9800X3D isn't slower, are you a userbenchmark reader? wtf
>>103223071Noctua barely goes on sale, I think retailers make no margin on them
>>103223737>better on paperaccording to whom?
>>103223737/g/ is only about consumerism and media shillingOf course tuned 14900K is better than x3d chips, but who cares if they're e-celebs said that there something wrong with them(hint: this faggot techbloggers have no clue what they're talking about).
>>103223796Yes im googling the comparison, but its better but according to you guys its not? Then why do they say its better?
>>103223766worst part of building a pc is fan cablessata drives you just plug in and shove under the shroud and snugly jam in the cable mass no prob no screws required
>>103223737Please be joking i have a 13600k which is basically the same thing and its slow as fuck giving me flashbacks to an aweful 1600x i had this feels slower even though its almost been a decade
>>103223811Yes thats what I was afraid of, that this website is full of fanboys..So I should just go with the 14900k then?
>>103223816I just plug them into the fan hub?
>>103223817how is it slow then? The speed is the speed... Maybe you are doing something wrong on your PC then?
>>103223812Ever crossed your mind to seek out info from more than one source? Then you would notice that userbenchmark is pretty much the only source that recommends the intel one.
>>103223702As someone who has a 79xtx they dont all oc that well out of the box and if you have a 3x8pin pcb they wre fast enough out of the box but i noticed zero difference oc vs stockThe 2x8pin i agree was shit and absolutely needed tuning Amds drivers have gotten worse again since they fired the rtg guys since October
>>103223841what other source? I googled speeds and multiple websites say 14900k is faster it can go up to 6ghz and has more cores too
>>103223826Not doing anything wrong have good ram 3200cl16 which makes zero difference vs ddr5 in benchmarks its just slow in certain games sometimes 20-50% vs a 98x3d build
If I'm planning on replacing all my fans with noctua fans, what would be a good case (no AIO, all air cooling)? Seems like on nicer cases you are paying for fans, so something cheap, right?
>>103223737the only way you're going to keep up with a 9800X3D with a 14900k is to buy 10 or more of them, take the one that is best binned, delid it, liquid cool, and then finally thermal cycle all of your hardware while tuning 50 times
>>103223426>OMG no one demands 77-42 inch OLEDs>buy now!!!no shit
>>103223812>Userbenchmarkyou have to be trolling
>>103223854but the 14900k goes to 6ghz and the 9800x3d only to like 5ghz? how can it be faster then?
>>103223864like I said im not a tech autist so explain why its wrong
>>103223872there are more factors that go into performance than hz
>>103223872Pentium 4 can go to 8 GHz buy that
>>103223842There's already a 7900xtx tier list straight from AMD. The cards with higher ppt limits have higher asic quality. Any card that isn't a 328A TDC limit is basically shit.
>>103223819It depends. If it's only about gaming then go for 13600K/14600K, with manual OC and tuned ram you can achieve more performance than 14900KS at stock.I'm not an upgradefag but I really want to see that 12-p core Bartlett lake, otherwise I would suggest getting 14900K.
>>103223901maybe i go with 9800x3d then if everyone says, or maybe older 7800x3d? is big difference?
>>103223873https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHH11AplyLcusershillmark is not a credible source and has an extremely blatant intel bias
>>103223842I get my best game scores using the creators guru3d drivers and bang4buckpcgamer oc settings. Scoring better than 4080 super and on par with 4090 in multiple games. The card draws a lot of power but that's what PTM is for and if you're already buying a 4090 you should already have a overkill PSU.
>>103223910why are you looking at high end processors if you can't even look up benchmarks? buy the cheapest intel i3 prebuilt and you will never know the difference.
>>103223923but with gaming do they mean getting fastest call of duty frame rate?cause i also do like cpu intensive shit like simulation games or multi tasking and compiling stuff
>>103223931>Why do you wanna drive fast cars if you dont know how this very detailed technical part within the engine works?
>>103223819No because you should check technical results and not the omen in the coffee.>While we normally analyze Core-to-Core latency on new CPUs, the fact that Intel's 14th and 13th Gen are identical architecturally, we opted to omit this from our testing.Pic related.
>>103223923what a horrible video, adhd shit i didnt understand anything
>>103223939WHy do you want to drive a fast card if you're going to respect the same speed limit? Just status symbol?
>>1032239409950x is different than 9800x3d >>103223961I do more than just play fucking call of duty i dont care about gaming performance like some zoomer i also use multi tasking stuff cpu intensive simulation games which require high clockspeeds and so on
>>103223910Even a 7500f is enough for gamingBut if you want highest out of the box. then yea, 9800x3d is a way ahead.>is big difference?7800x3d is still good. But I wouldn't recommend it if you play online games at pro level.
>>103223967go to the computer store and buy the one the salesman recommends
>>1032239679800x3d has the exact same latency numbers just ignore half of the image since it's a single ccd.You seem insufferable and dumb, a fool and his money quickly parts, do whatever you want and fuck off back to plebbit.
>>103223141Lads... I can't make up my mindIt's tempting
>>103223973>for gaming>implying every game is the same>>103223982yeah from the looks of it they might know more than you guys
DURRRRRRRRR THE 13600K ISNT A BOTTLENECK U GUYS
>>103221333I just got myself a 9800x3d but my mobo is AM4 and my ram is DDR4.What should I upgrade into?Possibly for around eur 500, living in italy.I have read NOTHING about DDR5 and AM5 mobos.
>>103224005Their knowledge is predicated on what inventory they have to move.
>>103224010you want hynix ram and asrock motherboard
do i need to buy picrel to calibrate my monitor? I also have a) a phone and b) a mainstream DSLR; are there projects that give me a usable .icc with either of those
>>1032240109800x does not work on am4, you need am5 at least>>103224020yes and you guys are maybe just AMD shillsanyway thanks for those who wanted to help me seriously but since I do more CPU intensive stuff than just gaming, I think 14900k with its 6ghz clockspeeds might be better
>>103224005>implying every game is the sameIf he had a specific game where he needed more performance, then he wouldn't ask such a dumb questions
>>103224030>9800x does not work on am4, you need am5 at leastI'm aware of that, I'm asking what I should be looking for in AM5 boards. >>103224024And a zotac gpu just to match that chink feeling, right?
>>103224033Cities Skylines 2
>>103224046Then get something with high singlecore
>>103224010do not fall for the 870 series memes
>>103224040it's the consensushynix is a Korean company not Chinese
>>103224068Like the 14900k then
So I was right and the AMD shills are retarded call of duty zoomersgot it.
>>103224030Looking at raw clockspeed hasn't been a relevant metric for like 20 years. Ofc it matters but you shouldn't base your decision around it.The processor names themselves used to tell the clock seed like Pentium 4 1.3 or Athlon 1400C. That's no longer the case.
>>103224088I don't think you can handle manual tuning or even bios update Buy 9800x3d or 13600K/14600K instead.
>>103224098I have 6700k which I overclocked to 4.6ghz
>>103224090Ive always bought Intel but honestly its always felt like they do fuck all and that I've had worse performance that competition. But the thing that really sticks for me is Intel dying, because they genuinely are fucked without government intervention. If I buy CPUs for 5-10 years I need the company behind them to be around in that time frame.
>>103224101Then get 13600K 13600K and 14900K are the same thing, only actual difference is in binning and cache amount
>>103224010Im getting a a X870A for my 9800X3D purely because its white and the other white motherboards look like doodoo.
Guys I just found a 9800x for $200
>>103224151Now make it a spinning GIF so it's also x3D
I wish AI upscaling would be used for scaling 4k or near 4k resolutions into 8k instead of being a crutch for monkey devs that want to get away with running shit in sub-1080p

>>103224251Wait for cyber monday
>>103224283Then you have only one day left and maybe the things you wanted don't have discounts.
>>103221333Planning on a new build around the 9800x3D>CPU:9800X3D>COOLER:AIO Artic Liquid Freezer III>M/BOARD:No idea. Saw this motherboard and it seems OK, I know GB is a reputable brand.Gigabyte X870E AORUS ELITE WIFI7 AM5>RAM:Corsair Vengeance DDR5 2x32GB 6400Mhz>SSD:3x Samsung 990 Pro (various sizes)>GPU:7900XTX>CASE:Cooler Master HAF700 (already purchased)>PSU:Corsair SF1k - 1000W 80+PlatinumUpgrading from Skylake; this next PC is intended to last at least a decade with current games as life priorities have shifted (kids on the way). Budget is not a great factor. I'm chasing high quality components that will last and allow gaming with the highest settings for as long as possible. I'd like to purchase VR for gaming as well. Initial resolution will be on 1080p until I upgrade my peripherals to 2160p in the future.I've been out of the sphere for a while and time for research is spent on housework and renovations; I'm a bit out of touch with the new tech and out of my depth.How badly have I fucked my proposed component list up and what would you do differently?
>>103224303I think the suggestion to use DDR5-6000 CL30 is for good reason, something to do with the infinity fabric clock running at 2000mhz 1/3 of the RAM clock, maybe someone can explain it better but that's considered the best RAM choice for current gen AMD CPUs.
>>103221333>AVOID: 'Silent' casesI want a simple, classy case with no windows. These are usually marketed as "silent".Why should I avoid silent cases? Just because they run slightly hotter? Specifically considering the Fractal Pop Silent
>>103224303Also for 10 years of longevity you better get an air cooler, NH-D15 G2 LBC would be my "fuck budgets" choice for maximum longevity and it's quite competitive with liquid cooling.
>>103224321why do fat fucks who need 4x 4tb hdds to store their hentai in every computer seethe so much about case windows?
>>103221333Will using a workstation CPU matter at all if I don't play CPU limited games?
>>103224333Why are you seething about cases without windows? I'm generally curious
>>103224370don't answer a question with another question
>>103224303Get an Asrock instead. x870 Pro RS is $200 right now. $210 for Wifi.
>>103224321Fractal Pop kind of sucks. I wouldn't avoid silent cases but you can get some modern cases with no side panel windows, no RGB, and good airflow. I got a Phanteks Enthoo Pro, not Pro 2 but the older model with 5.25" drive bays so I can keep using my little accessory drawer. I recommend it if you don't mind a full tower - it's big but not the biggest case out there, like some Fractal XL cases are bigger. It has no noise dampening material but does have nice dust filters, the fabric kind in a plastic frame instead of just small holes punched in metal.
>>103224407I have the x870 Pro RS and it does have one caveat using 3x NVME drives, the second PCIe slot will be disabled. And if you add more than 2 SATA drives, the 2 secondary NVME drives will only run at gen 3 speed. It's still fine for most users but he did mention having 3 drives so it's something to be aware of.
>>103224303Modern game developers don't know how to optimize anymore, see mh milds performance , doubt a 9800x3d and 5090 eill be able to handle that game
>>103224321>Why should I avoid silent cases? Just because they run slightly hotter? Yeah pretty much. Turns out it's more efficient to run unrestricted fans slower than it is to attempt to damp the noise from faster fans. Plus these days all your major components boost their performance based on temperature so putting them in a hotbox is leaving a little performance on the table.There is an exception in components that make the same amount of noise regardless of the temperature - HDDs being the obvious example - if you're building with a bunch of those then a damped case will be quieter. Though in that case I would suggest a NAS.>Specifically considering the Fractal Pop SilentGood news, there's an airflow version with a solid panel available. Enjoy your refined aesthetics without compromising on noise or performance.
LEGO to the rescue
>>103224303do not get a x870e because the usb4 requirement fucks with your nvme speed
>>103224420Hmmm. A bit concerning for me too as I was going to grab a 4tb NVME and throw it in there. Guess I'll also pick up a 4tb SSD and consolidate my other drives as they're 1tb.
>>103224223Fermi, my love, we meet again!
>>103221382source? this means 5070 and 5060 are DOAmaybe some gay ass ti supers will be 16gb/12gb but that's not usually how the memory controllers work and I doubt kikevidia will do 24/16 variants
>>103224333Because it's fucking glass. Heavier, more expensive, fragile alternative to cheap acrylic for the sake of muh aesthetics when the only valid usecase for a transparent side panel is being able to look over the guts without taking the panel off. But if the panel is easy to take off and/or hinged then you don't even need that.
>>103224426>Turns out it's more efficient to run unrestricted fans slower than it is to attempt to damp the noise from faster fans.Can attest to that, run all my fans at 600RPM and have a Torrent, pretty quiet.
>>103224330>>103224318Thanks for your recommendations. I'll downscale the RAM and look into the NH-D15.>>103224407>>103224456So go for 870 over the 870E for performance?>>103224422¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>>103224333i dont want some fucking lightshow with anime figurines to post on the internet i want a tool to play games with
>>103224462I have 2 nvme drives + 1 SATA and no second PCIe device so I just noted the manual, to use the right hand slot for the 2nd drive and only use the 2 "A" SATA ports (whichever ones are labeled A1 and A2 instead of just 1 and 2). This way the 2 drives both run at full speed and the 2nd PCIe slot remains usable.The manual explains it pretty well.
>>103224477>this means 5070 and 5060 are DOAand you didn't even see the prices yet! this is AMD chance to grab mid range, if they are ready to eat some losses at the start. Something tells me it's going to be as retarded as 7900XT pricing.
>>103224333I don't want a case window just because it will make me more anal about the interior look. If it's not there then I don't care about mixing parts that don't match, about perfect cable management etc. Makes keeping a nice clean look that much easier and doesn't trigger any OCD to make it look clean.

quick question if my pc cant hold cpu ram or gpu oc'd at all suddenly is it the psu?
>>103224224>>103224407idk why /g/ is freaking out about the x870 boards if you're just using one NVME
>>103224611You mean neither of them or all at once? If it can't hold RAM OC and crashes that's not PSU. Try testing all OCs separately.
>>103224645USB 4 is nice. I have no use case for it yet but I probably will in the future when there's more accessories that can take advantage of it. Or maybe it will just be a meme and never get used idk.
>>103224651I have a feeling the mobo may be shitting itself was holding fine testing the 79xtx in a new system soon anyways since this 13600k is basically making my gpu sit idle in beam ng mp vr modded
>>103224645Probably because most people use 2 nvmes anon

>>103224766>>103224766>>103224766
>>103224762Fuck I filled my old system drive 250gb full of bng mods lol
>>103224756I wish there was a way to adapt NVME to SATA, but there's not. Maybe in enterprise hardware? Definitely nothing consumer level. If you want to use many NVME devices it seems like the only option is some specialized NAS with ton of PCIe lanes.
I've decided to go with Arctic P14 Max instead of Noctua A14x25 G2 because of their high static pressure and higher RPM. I don't mind the noise because I have a UPS in my room that's running all the time. I'm waiting for the white version to become available on Amazon (hopefully soon). I just wish Arctic made 5-packs of their white fans. I have a white case and I want them to match.
