>>106885788*racial slurs
>>106885816>There are people who not only chose a 1080ti over a 2080, but also held onto that gpu for like 9 years nowGrim
>>106885765Should I bother upgrading this i7 6700k? Want a dedicated PC for my sim rig so want to reuse my old hardware. 6700k with 4070 Ti Super. Have a 38" uw at 3840 x 1600 resolution. If I ever go with triple monitors I'm assuming I'd have to upgrade it though. AC beamng and LMU mostlyI have a 9800x3d with 5080 I use for everything else.
>>106885899That CPU is below the minimum specs for some of those games.
>>106885773>RTX 50 Super: 2026 launch.fuck these niggas. is it confirmed? I need a competent ai pc but the 90 is way out of my pocket right now.
>>106885856A friend of mine only upgraded his 2nd hand 1080ti to a 5090 this year lmfao. WHAT A STEP UP
>>106885923CES launch
>>106885923with those broken nvidia drivers? pass.
>>106885856>GrimIve done that. It is grim. The ai slop can be very fun and useful and VR needs juice.Not like most people use their's for anything productive but having a modern gpu is a blessing. Prices are crazy.
>>106885963Let me guess? Windows?It's 30-50% slower than RADV.
>>106885923>is it confirmedNot officially but they're probably coming, latest "leak" is q2You better be ready to spend out the ass on them though, especially the 70ti and 80
>>106885960I need the AI and more than 16gb vram. Otherwise I would have got the 9070xt by now.They promised 80ti/80super to be delivered by now. I got wait fucked and the logical solution is more wait or highway robbery.
>>106885923wouldn't those be scalped hard because of vram demand in llm?
>>106885984>You better be ready to spend out the ass on them though, especially the 70ti and 80yeah I have a feeling its going to be a shitshow but sometimes release day is the only chance to snag a decent offer for the forseeable next 4-5 months. it should come sooner than later but they are not in a hurry to mess with their datacenter sales.
>>106886018everything is scalped anyway. gpu hungry times, the only way to feed the ai god is to throw more computing power at it.
>>106886005you will get robbed once they release tooi dont understand how people talk about that possible release of the super 50 series as the second coming of christthey are gonna be priced to high heavens and massively scalped
>>106885899You can buy a 12th gen i3 and get better performance and lower power draw. Stop hanging onto ewaste.
Not my horse or anything but some anon posted that the Asus prime 5080 got a decent discount on the amazon asus store on the usIn case this tickles anybody's ballshttps://a.co/d/5XnVxqx
>>106886063im not here for gaming. I need something that is weaker than the 90, but can do the 'same' tricks. nothing ticks that box until super refresh and more vram.they hard capped at 16gb for a reason, both nvidia and ayymd can fuckoff.
>>106886005>i NEED the gAyIanother useless faggot wasting good computer parts
>>106886005>They promised 80ti/80super to be delivered by now.No, they didn't. Even the unpopular 4080 was produced for over a year before the discounted 4080 Super was released.It's a 2-year generational cycle, with refreshed products in between.It's in NVIDIA's best interest to sell 12/16GB cards as long as they can.5070 12GB is the highest-selling RTX 50 series card atm.
I don't need an AIO but they look so much cleaner and cooler. Do I need to worry about oxidation and having to change out the water every couple of years?
>>106886083worst card on the roster, only selling for name value alone. being an 80 card used to mean something.anyway trickle down gpu economics aside supers are going to be nice cards to get.80ti coming or only 80super? they might go full retard and 80ti super will be the last one to hit the market before 60xx.
>>106886168AIOs are closed loops. you're not supposed to open them. they last like any other pump system like a fish tank. on average 10-15 years before they go glug glug glug and leaking green shit
>>106886119you have no reason to be mad. 70xt and 70ti were selling @ decent price for months.
>>106885765Should I sell my am4 pc for am5 or upgrade it with better am4 cpu? It's for 1080p gaming. Budget (without selling) 750e. I have:mb: asus b450m-acpu: amd ryzen 5 2400geram: kingston hyperx fury 1x16gb 3000mhzssd: samsung 970 evo plus 512gbhdd: western digital blue 1tbcase: ms industrial (m-atx case)
>>106886178Say that to apaltekClog in 6 months
>>1068862035600 would be a massive upgrade for youDon't consider am4 x3ds, way overpricedYou would also need a new 32GB ram kit and a graphics card, maybe even a power supply
>>106886203you missed the cheap 5700x3d and ddr4 ram prices are now fucked, no reason to stay on am4 if you want to upgrade
>>106886176NVIDIA doesn't need to make an 80 Ti when AMD only has a 9070 XT.80 Ti means using a bigger chip because the GB203 is maxed out by the 5080/Super, bad business for NVIDIA.
>buy AOC monitor (Q27G4ZR)>want to download their .icm profile (i don't have a colorimeter, so i can't make my own)>website provides icm and driver for a completely different monitor (27G4HRE)>make support ticket>get told to download g-menu and to "press the gear icon" for any updates>to no one's surprise g-menu provides no drivers nor icm profilesAm I just going to have to find a monitor with the same panel and download its .icm? I know it's a gaming monitor, but I don't see why i shouldn't get as accurate colour as I possible can out of it.
>>106886316i got my ktc icm from displayninja review site, i am happy with the colors.
>>106886203I used to be in a similar place to yours, debating on trying to improve the am4 build or saving more and move to a new build, i was also on 1080p ryzen 5 1600 16gb ram and a gtx970 gpuI got a used cheap 5600x (no 3d) a not as cheap used 3060TI, 32 gb of faster ram and i also bought a new psu just in case since my older one was already 8 years old and probably was close to cap on the new parts. Also bought a new case as again.... 8 years old the evolution on case design has been staggering.I can play ANYTHING at high settings 60fps @1080, i could probably ankle bit some games at medium @1440 if i had a 2k screenI just finished Dying Light the beast for example, played Wuchang, Returnal, hell is us, the lies of p (and dlc). As somewhat demanding games i have finished recentlyHowever if yo rather jump to am5 and can sell your current parts getting a basic low budget am5 build is not the most expensive thing in the world either right now
>>106886316You can adjust the RGB Gain values using a piece of white office paper as a reference to get a pretty good result tint/color temperature wise:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avJTz1JhkR4
>>106886203If you want to, you can sell it, but just stick a 5600x and a 9070xt and call it good? 750w PSU should be fine IMO, which is what you have?
battlefield 6 is proof that 6 cores are almost dead. even a 7600. it bottlenecks even a 4070 at 1440p.
>>106886494then the next Zen generation increases IPC and 6 cores is relevant again
>>106886494Well that doesn't make any sense because there's diminishing returns after 8 threads
>>106886531Zen6 comes with 12 cores per CCD right? So we might see 7600x equivalent with more cores.
>>106886316That's the level of official support you get if you buy from cheaper brands, but you obviously shouldn't buy an ROG monitor just for the .icm profile.I'm not sure if AOC ever fixed the HDR color volume issues with their $400~500 QD-OLED monitor.
>>106886531>>106886560Yeah but who cares when nova lake will be out soon and will redeem
>>106886203>amd ryzen 5 2400ge
>>106886587Shintel products are not even out and you want me to be be excited for some vaporware?
>RDNA3 is still totally via-ACK>>106886676Yes, and you should do as I will and buy the unlocked i7 equivalent on release day.
Is it true that the new amd apus going to be stronger than the 9070xt?Right now PC gaming is held back by both old console hardware and AI. Basically nothing new under the sun, console dictating the market of gaming. Cheaper, more accessible, more kids with crooked (no) standards.Greedia and amd just milking the AI weapons race. concerning how nobody talks about the dangers of ai but thats another thing.anyway gossip says the next console is going to be strong! powered by amd breaktrough apus! that means VR and computer graphics leap is on the horizon! (assuming jeet spaghetti code and incompetence is being stopped nao or else no computing power is going to be enough)
>>106886570i downloaded 3 different icc profiles, 1 for an extremely similar model, one for a similar but slightly different model and one for my old TN screen. I can literally see zero difference between any of them
>>106886766They'll focus on the RT/ai for the architecture, but nvidia did that years ago already so its less exciting.
>>106886766>anyway gossip says the next console is going to be strong!They can't push raster performance very far without pushing it into pc pricing.A 5060ti is probably going to be the closest equivalent if you're being realistic.
>>106886766It just means next-gen consoles will support upscaling & frame generation from day 1.Given the price of the PS5 Pro ($750), it's very likely the PS6 will have $700 and $800 models.Don't expect an amazing GPU from that cost constraint; it won't be better than a 9070 XT.
>>106886783>but nvidia did that years ago already so its less exciting.qrd?new gen and strong as fuck console is generally the best thing that could happen to pc gaming right now, if anything that is something to be excited about.10years from now we all going to be strapped to displays, vr is the next stepnew console, new next gen graphics, new commercialized console vr boom. lets go
>>106886766Big doubt.Strix halo is expensive as fuck and not even close to the performance of 9070XT.I don't see how they could gain over 100% more performance and lower the price to acceptable level.
>>106886846>new gen and strong as fuck console is generally the best thing that could happen to pc gaming right now, if anything that is something to be excited about.Not if the games still target PS5 hardware compatibility for the next 3~5 years.We've only gotten PS5 & Series S/X major exclusives for 2 years or so.https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/IR/library/presen/business_segment_meeting/
>>106886851Strix halo on a handheld might sell well anon, also, lets see what Strix halo on UDNA and Zen6 look like, it might even be a 30% improvement over current strix halo.
>>106886893Digital foundry speculated about a longer cross gen period where devs make games that are ported to wide range of devices that fit the game.They'll scale the games up with RT and higher fps for the ps6 and pc but no need to leave a lot of gamer market behind so they'll build it to work for ps5 as the baseline. Like how cdpr is doing for witcher 4
>>106886917>lets see what Strix halo on UDNA and Zen6 look likeThis wouldn't be a Strix Halo; it would obviously be better.

>>106886984Apart from RT there isnt some special gameplay thing you can do on ps6/pc that you cant do on ps5
>>106886956Both are rip-offs. Build this. Get a 9070 XT if you can afford it.https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Bxmgv4
>>106887032You just lack the imagination.
>>106886973Not much, because the source media is garbage.
>>106886917It won't sell well because it's too expensive.Base GPD WIN 5 is $1700.Those handhelds would need to cost under $700 which is impossible right now.Future APUs also have limited appeal.On top of using more expensive TSMC process, UDNA gpus will use even bigger die than RDNA3 because of all the added dedicated hardware for ML and RT.So this will raise the price even further.
hey there /pcbg/ im coming with a couple of questions. currently have a 5700, and im looking to upgrade for better gaming performance/all around nice to haves. I've been getting some sound crashing/artifacting issues in what I've been told is a RAM access issue that could also be CPU related. my options seem to be to get a 5800X3D and keep the current AM4 platform or basically start from scratch and go AM5, likely a 7600X or 9600X but possibly a 7700X/9700X.is Ryzen 7 that much better than 5 to justify the 100-150 price increase on processor alone? I do use my computer for gaming as well as some music production and digital art. pic related is my system.
>>106887136upgrade to am5. wait for 9600x3d or spend on 9800x3d now.
>>106886956of those two the i7 and 5060tiYou could build something around a 5070 for the same price.
>>106887136Get the 9600x or 9700x5800x3d is only good for gaming and is pretty lackluster in single and multi core performance which are useful for music production

Having used oled for a while theres some issues If I use the max brightness mode whenever I browse 4chan and hover over an image the screen dims itself, so its a better experience to use a lower nits mode so the auto brightness limiter isnt constant annoyance. In games its less of an issue.You have the typical avoidance of letting static content be up all the time, so I have things like a wallpaper folder that switches once a minute, I use windhawk app that mades taskbar translucent (also vertical), I try to watch videos more on fullscreen. Screensaver is enabled after few mins.I can game on my oled and keep 4chan up on 2nd lcd monitor.Still the quality is best so I wouldnt go out of my way to get a miniled with blooming. Its more that if you get a miniled its going to have some advantages like having higher fullscreen brightness and no dimming issues.
>>106886196prices and avaliability have nothing to do with this. you are a dumbfuck, 80 iq nigger monkey wasting computational power on chatbots and jerking off. 5090s could be free ewaste and you would still be a massive waste of energy and resources.

>>106887960>If I use the max brightness mode whenever I browse 4chan and hover over an image the screen dims itself, so its a better experience to use a lower nits mode so the auto brightness limiter isnt constant annoyance.You're not supposed to enable HDR for SDR content.

>>106887975>Mostly. Can still see a tiny bit of issue with black text bearable, if only that. back then va ghosting was disgusting and had nowhere near the ips' colordepth.is it cheap? then I will get one. Im satisfied with compromises when the price is right.
>>106888039Im not sure if 2023 article is perfectly up to date now but I used windows hdr calibration tool + the sdr content brightness slider and stuff like chrome and windows desktop look fine.Then nvidia app has features like rtx hdr which makes sdr videos hdr and it looks good. Windows has that hdr shortcut with win key+ alt + b that some people use but I havent felt the need to switch to sdr mode.Cant speak for minileds. If sdr content doesnt work with hdr on miniled wouldnt that incentivize to always use hdr?
>>106888087>If sdr content doesnt work with hdr on miniled wouldnt that incentivize to always use hdr?No, because that destroys contrast on LCD monitors as noted in that article.The advice hasn't changed since 2023, TFTCentral still recommends viewers to disable HDR when viewing SDR content.He'll mention that in his new monitor reviews from time to time.
>>106888087>stuff like chrome and windows desktop look fine.>If I use the max brightness mode whenever I browse 4chan and hover over an image the screen dims itself,You're describing ABL kicking in while viewing SDR content.
>>106888162As I said the monitor has different brightness modes and having lower max nit mode makes it less noticeable.
>>106888213>lower max nit mode makes it less noticeable.This still means ABL is kicking in, you fucking retard.
>>106888235Im not sure what you're arguing about now.I know it is kicking in, I said its an advantage minileds would have over oleds.
>>106888251You enjoy wasting energy viewing auto-dimmed SDR content.

what cpu cooler do i get? otherwise ill pick
>>106888443Fuck.
>>106888284Im the anon that stayed in am4 and replied to you earlier. Im not the anon that mentioned the better gpu but will tackle that question too.>Which gpu do you recommend?The current meta is either 9070xt or 5070TI both will be 600-800 depending where you areHowever in your situation the 5060TI 16gb that you picked is perfectly fine as i personally dont think that on your budget the ones i mentioning are in the cards.You have to make the decision of getting a low end budget build as the one you posted or updating the cpu ram and gpu and start saving for when you actually jump to the next build in the future.In my country a 5600x new is 140 16gb of new ram is 60 that leaves you 550 for (out of the 750 you mentioned) for a new cooler 25€ and then enough for a 5060TI which start at 450€. Those prices may vary in your country. Btw where are you? that could help in choosing parts. Now if you can find a 2nd hand 5600x(3d) a bit cheaper than retail price (there should be a lot of those around) that would help.Problem with that build is that other than the gpu and the cooler the rest is fairly outdated tech, it will work and work good, you will get frames and play @1080/1440p for a while. But thats it, there are no real further upgrades there on the cpu in the future, the next change will require you to change the whole computer (again except the gpu).The other option is jumping to AM5 now the build you made is a bit too lean,i understand money is the limiting factor but that build is about 150 or so away from being good, from being something that you can put together and know it will last you a while, you could use a better mobo, a better case and maybe a better cpu.I tried to be fair with both options, let me know if i can help you further, and if you dont mind tell us where you are inthe world to check for prices.

>>106888537Lf3 is one of the best. Go ahead.
>>106888284I recommend a 9070xt, 9070 or 5070ti. If your PSU is not atx 3.1, you'll want amd 9070 or 9070xt with 8 pin model.

hello anons. i want to build an SFF pc as a linux workstation to have alongside my main windows pc. mostly for daily use and coding and such. no need for powerful components since thats in the main pc already. how i got a lenovo thinkcentre m920 pc that i love the look of and it would work great as a monitor stand to save space but its not really upgradable due to jewish lenovo. now to my main point. what are some SFF pc cases that wouldnt suffer due to lack of airflow because a monitor is standing on it? found this fractal one but the pc stand would block a lot of the air intake.

I am changing a cpu cooler. I am scared of destroying the CPU when I clean off the thermal paste.
>>106889548What is there to be afraid of? An ez free delid? People pay good money for tools to do that even
>>106888343the speaker placement is pure shit.
>>106889240>Maybe I can squeeze 150 idk, what do you recommend? 7700 as the other anon mentioned? b650?I made this mock up list with the pieces you posted and then the three touchy points i picked options from slovakia just for some sort of reference, you would need to check those prices and availability on your store.The case you literally can not buy a 19€ case, i understand going with the cheapest option but there is a reason we recommend certain cases, better airflow and easier building is worth it, even more so if you stick with the cpu's default cooler. So it doesnt have to be the case i picked (althought its a fantastic case) but please pick a better (50-60€ at least) well reviewed case.Then the mobo, pick a b650, again it doesnt have to be the one i chose, just check what your store has available and get a well reviewed one, it will be more expensive than the one you chose, but it will also be worth it.Then the cpu, thats where it probably gets out of budget because a 7700 it will be about 100€ more expensive just on its own, a 9600x is only about 30€ more expensive but that one requires to buy a cooler (you actually might want to buy a cooler for the other options but those come with an stock one while the 9600x doesn't). The problem is that while the 9600x is a better cpu its also a bit on the low side.So if i had that build you posted and an extra 150 to sprinkle i would spend an extra 40-50 on the case, and extra 60 or so to get a b650 mobo and then with whatever is left ponder if you can get a 7700 and then if its possible get a 20 or so cooler, stock cooler's aren't that great. If you can't swing it and end up getting the 7600 thats perfectly fine. You might be able to upgrade it on the future if you get the chance to pick a better am5 chip in the future.That build will handle 1080 and 1440p for a long while if you can eventually buy a 1400p screen.Again check prices and part selection with the store you would have to use and let me know

>>106890165No, you need to download them manually.
>>106889783LFIII/Pro is recommended because of its overall value & reliability, not for the raw cooling performance.There are cheaper AIOs, but some are willing to pay a bit more for Arctic's proven customer service (pain-free QC support for the LF2).

>>106889783>>106890492https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTHCPsM5ECwThe ID-COOLING & Thermalright offerings have some crazy value value (50 to 60$) no surprise but Lian Li's Lian Li Galahad II having the best results at super-low dBAs for only ~$100 did catch me off guard. Of course unless you are going with a 14900K, 285K, or 9950X it doesn't even make sense to not go air cooling anyway at the moment. Maybe when both companies boost their core counts with Zen 6/Nova Lake next year that will give make spending more than $30-40 on a CPU cooler make sense for most users and give OEMs a reason to innovate more (WHERE'S MY FUCKING CHEAP VAPOR CHAMBER AIR COOLERS AND THE GODDAMN THERMOSIPHON?)

I don't understand how all of you noggers can live with maybe just a screwdriver and a dull pocket knife in a drawer somewhere.

I am playing on 1080p, but use multiple monitors. Wanting to eventually get a 1440p monitor though too. I am still overall happy with my 1070's performance, but am struggling to play the most recent of games, like stellar blade and final fantasy. I'm also interested in ai chatbots and making comfy ai slop. So, I'm thinking about waiting for a good sale for a 5060 ti 16gb. Does that sound like a good pick for me? I thought about a 9060 xt 16gb too, but that doesn't do the ai stuff well I read..

>>106891853Thanks for the response bwo.. I have been seeing 5070's go on sale lately, and I have thought about maybe saving for another month to get one, but isn't the 12gb really limiting for ai stuff? I like to talk to comfy chatbots from one of the other generals a lot. Also, the 1000w power supply was a gift from my older sister kind of recently. I was using a super old one for a while before that.
>>106891930no, ideally you have 2gb of vram. Nobody needs more than 1gb of vram. Why do you want more that 512gb of vram? 256gb of vram will bankrupt nvidia, I can't believe the terrorism of these kids.
>>106891930>but isn't the 12gb really limiting for ai stuffI could generate slop just fine with my 1060.What's limiting is your budget. Ask yourself what do you do more often: game, or coom to anime girls?If you can save for a few months for a proper card like a 5080 then do it. 5070 Ti wouldn't be a bad choice though.

I am buying an Asrock B850 Pro-A motherboard and nothing will happen to my Ryzen 5 9600X CPU.
Reminder : AMD NIGERS hate god, and are not human>>106891610Ignore the retard posting crash logs. 650w is fine for a 5070ti + 5600 but an upgrade to a more power hungry cpu would be questionable. Most am5 and 1851 processors would be fine, something like a 14900k or something in the future with a zillion cores, probably not.5060ti isn't worth it without a discount for video games. It's significantly slower than a 5070 for not that much less money. If you don't want to spend $750 buy a 5070, outside of 4k+ 12gb and the other cuts to the card aren't a big deal. For reference in most games the difference between the 5070 and 5080 is smaller than 60tivs70 for 1080p and 1440p. At 4k it's +30ish% going to a 70ti, 50-60% going to an 80, and upwards to 2x going to a 90 depending on engine.

do you use TVs as monitors?
>>106892703They fixed the E33 sleep wake issue that I posted about last threadNot bad Nvidia, not bad
>>106892998Well it's the cheapest way to get a 4k oledLiterally no other benefits at this point
>>106892998No, they are terrible. What size, what specs?
>>106893042I don't know, actually.context is I'm using and old TV and monitor at the moment. the monitor is an LG 24". the TV is a terrible 15 year old LCD TV that started to have garbled horizontal lines and is borderline unusable.I'm looking for a monitor or TV that>is big>has better than 60 Hz refresh rate>can play soundsmaybe I can buy two separate monitors for this.
>>106893031>Well it's the cheapest way to get a 4k oled>Literally no other benefits at this pointWas curious what the price delta between 4K OLED monitors and TVs has gotten to now and found a bunch of listing for these on Alibaba:https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Factory-Ultra-Thin-55-Inch-OLED_1600993101045.htmlhttps://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Premium-65-Inch-4K-OLED-Smart_1601564388436.html42" & 65" 4K OLED Wholesale TVs for $216-230 shipped.CHAT IS THIS REAL?
I am enamored with 5.25 bays and want to put a card reader, optical, and MAYBE a hotswap bay in my case. Any cases that aren't dogshit for airflow but still have 5.25 bays? I hate these goddamned fishtank cases

Dark Base Pro 901, Silverstone SETA D1, & Fractal Design Define 7 in that order.
>>106893132This would be an interesting product review if a TV/monitor reviewer could get a sample.
>>106893082You probably know monitors and TVs have unremarkable speakers.You missed out on the LG C5 firesale, 42" WOLED was selling for under $800.https://www.ebay.com/str/electronicexpressstore
>>106893260>You probably know monitors and TVs have unremarkable speakers.yes, that's a given. but sometimes I just want to listen to something on Youtube without having to wear headphones, and maybe a separate set of speakers could be omitted in favor of a monitor or tv that can just have them
>>106893220Solid recommendations, would probably go with the silverstone. That said I built in a phanteks enthoo evolv ATX years ago and liked their build quality. What do you think about the updated enthoo pro? It looks like they added a usb 3.1 gen 2 port to the front I/O in a refresh and it has 3 5.25 baysAlso the last PC case I got rid of was this coolermaster 690 II when I essentially gave it away to a friend with a full build inside. I'm not sure if I want to dump this Evolv ATX to someone considering how goddamned heavy it is and I don't really know anyone who would be interested. Selling it would be a pain in the ass considering shipping but I feel like a shitter leaving in the alley. What do people do with their old fucking cases? Donate them to an IT training program nearby or something?

>>106893318If you can find one in stock for a reasonable price it's a great option. The Enthoo line are fantastic as one of the last case series that still have a good support for a healthy number of internal 3.5" slots for HDDs in an era where getting more than 3-4 slots is becoming a chore and it's not like the case dimensions have even changed, we're just getting less mounting options for the same size/price.
>>106893352cooling wise would you say the pro is better than this hunk of steel? I have to run it with the front panel off or shit gets toasty. Like 7 degrees C hotter
>>106889240Its not atx3.1, get a 8 pin GPU.
>>106893381>cooling wise would you say the pro is better than this hunk of steel?W-Where does the air intake from?> I have to run it with the front panel off or shit gets toasty. Like 7 degrees C hotterI believe it.
>>106893471it intakes from those little black slots on the front. There's two 140mm fans and a dust filter behind it. Lots of case mods focused on either increasing the distance between the metal front facade on the front via longer pegs or just straight up cnc'ing speed holes in it. Like I said, built like a tank and easy to work in but this was at the peak of form > function cases and nobody was really measuring thermals or airflow. Dark times.Pic related is the case all nekkid

>>106885834*Reddit moment
>>1068872393.14 am?
Got a new mobo that sits my GPU lower in the case, the clearance under is is a little under an inch.Was playing a game and noticed my GPU temps were hitting 100 (CPU was under 60).I'm assuming it's because the dogshit clearance? Is there anything I can do about this other than get a new case?
>>106894223Yes it's the clearanceYou should get a new case since that GPU offset is found on 99% of boards today and some boards even have it 1 slot power than that
>>106894223Can you add another fan inside the case propped beside the GPU blowing straight across it? Might be simpler and less expensive than replacing the whole case.PSU shrouds are a fucking mistake and I'm glad my old case doesn't have cramping everything up inside and ruining the air circulation.
>>106894223Use a dremel to slice away the PSU shroud so that air can flow freely
>>106894223Is the PSU shroud welded to the frame of the case? If it's screwed/bolted on, try and remove it.
It's actually crazy how nobody seriously considers the 5070 for their builds. It's such a good GPU, but retards would rather get a 5060 Ti 16GB for muh VRAM, scam themselves with an AMD GPU, or go right up into the 5070 Ti, which is way too overpriced for the performance bump over the 5070 regular.The main comparison I see is people getting the 9070 non-XT over the 5070 as they're "similarly priced". The 9070 is 50 euro more expensive and doesn't have DLSS. You might think the more VRAM and raster performance is worth it, but you'd be wrong - just test out FSR Quality and see how it can literally look worse than DLSS Balanced or even Performance. The 5070 will literally look and run better by utilizing DLSS, even more so with multiframegen that can bump you up from 80ish FPS to 165+ with good enough latency for singleplayer games.
Why did they invent PSU shrouds? Use case?
>>106894401Because there are games which definitely butt up against the 12GB limit now with max settings. It will only get worse from here. I think their upselling strategy is bad here and if they gave the 5070 sixteen giggerydoos it would have turned AMD's single digit market share to single percent.

>>106894483It's being bought by DIYers. Prebuilts tend heavily towards the class 60s and 60 Tis. The thing is that people who want to buy class 70s tend to decide by themselves instead of needing e-celebs to tell them and don't bother commenting either. Maybe class 70s were high end in the past but it's the clear mid-midrange today.
>>106894274>>106894280>>106894302>>106894320Just checked, no way to remove the shroud. Damn.I moved a fan lower so it blows directly under the gpu, and I'm running it side-open, so I'll see if that drops be under 80. Otherwise I'll just get one of the cases in the OP.Thanks, guys.
