don't buy intel and their suicide cpus with estrogen cores
>>107588684That's not lost on me, and I would consider the 5090 for MSRP. I can't justify getting scalped to buy any of the current gimped cards though. Most I might do is find a cheap second hand 4070 or 3000-series card and just wait things out.
I'm planning on getting a super flower, but why is the be quiet! psu almost $120 more for essentially the same power? I'm using the psu guide in the OP btw.
>>107588702I got a 7800x3d and it's nice but it idles at 50c which is a bit scary
>Just opened ram up today after geting it in mail>why the fuck is my mobo not workign with it>notice pins are different>decide to take heatsink off>they fucking put ddr4 ram with ddr5 heatsinks and some weights insideholy shit even newegg is fucked with ram.
>>107588735how are high idle temps scray?
I guess I should build a cluster of rtx 6000's.
>>107577748the duality of man>>107578151>>107578282nobody knows how bad things will really getsurely the 6090 release will be twice as sweet in the end rightI must believe there is redemption for a waitfag
>>107588724Super Flower is the in-house retail brand of a PSU OEM, so they can afford to sell their units at a lower price.be Quiet hires OEMs like CWT or FSP to make their PSUs.
Any small-ish cases that will take a full ATX mobo?Was looking at the O11 air mini but that's been discontinued afaik
>>107588724Because jews and going overkill features for 1000W max setups so you pauly retardly high prices compared to competitions that are totally fine
>>107588763in which dimension?
Where ia the HW review?
>>107588747cause if this pc dies I'm screwed cause I probably can't afford to fix it.
>>107588778??? why?
>>107588778it can't be less expensive then adding two of those on each side.
Any recommendations for a fan for my 9950x? Was doing some work and temps were a constant 95c, spiking to 100c
>>107588783your mb is going to die sooner than your cpu. hope that helps.
>>107588769In every dimension preferably but some extra height is fine if the footprint is small.
>>107588787then there's the potential of some idiot plugging in both sides at once
>>107588792AyyEyeOh 360mm
>64gb DDR5 is as much as an RTX 5080>which is already expensivethanks AI slop companies
>>107588603>>107588640Sometimes I really have to wonder what are the exact specifics of AIO setups that produce complaints of pump noise. Are they or are they not using the pump at 100%? Did they mount the radiator below the pump?For me and my FX360 perhaps it is possible that this model and individual unit just has outstanding world-class acoustics (virtually inaudible over fans even at 100%), but maybe most other complaints about AIOs comes entirely from User Error™.
>>107588735x3d/AMDs idle at like 40-50, literally normal and they are built to run at 95c (tjmax) at all timesthey are just warmer cause of the stacked cache, totally normal. also dont set your fan curve too high, my ak620 would go at 2000rpm with stock curve, at 50% it goes to like 1000 max and the temps are the same, but now it's very quiet.
>>107588724Super Flower is Taiwanese OEM, Be Quiet is German.
>>107588785Gimmick design for easier installation in niche case designs or if you just want to have easier cables acess $180 mrssp for the 1K Watt model so not even that bad,bit more if you buy the version with usb headers hub.Personally i like it having 5 pcie connectors, so many PSU have 2-3 and AMD GPU still come with 3x PCIe and the future looks like having less and less chance to buy Nvdia
>>107588837Well I guess that makes me feel better. Didn't realize those were normal idle temps
>>107588809i always liked the p300 from pahnteks since it was quite small and well made for a tower at 36l (o11 mini is at 43.09l) but they don't sell those anymore. there are not a lot of options apart from the SSUPD Meshroom S [V2]
can you imagine how expensive a 6090 will be on:>new 2nm node>RAM costs a trillion dollars>actual performance increase unlike the 5090 which is still ada node
>>107588826Keep crying. I am now shitposting from my brand new premium AM5 PC. The rape will continue.
>>107588868better start saving now to dab on the poorfags
>>107588809>>107588866forgot about the Jonsbo D41 Mesh
>>107588894>2560x1440
>>107588868Don't care, still hyped for release. Praying it's worse than last time. Gonna need the asus bukcet of rog 2.0.
>>107588859?????? Where the fuck is the 24pin for the motherboard if you don't rotate the PSU?
>>107588868>>actual performance increase unlike the 5090 which is still ada nodepeople probably underestimated the perf jump in 4k with memory bandwidth and rt perf
>>107588917On the side
>>107588932>thick as fuck cable now doesn't let you close the side panel>if you need to unplug a cable now you have to remove the motherboard 24pin first to acess the othersWhat a retarded design no one askes for
>>107588787The pins are protruding and can kill someone if they're bridged together
>>107588961>>107588787i don't see the problem with that.
>waiting for the new mid-cycle motherboard refresh releases>announced at the end of Q3 '25>still no news on when they're releasing only a nebulous "maybe Q1 '26"I can't wait much longer. I already have everything else. I must builddddddddd.
>>107588932how do you bend the 24 min cable and close the case?
>>107589030*pinidk wouldnt it be hard to run cables if the 24 pin is on the side?
If I only plan to stay 1440p is the 5060Ti good enough?
>>107589061no
>>107589030https://youtu.be/k0mBZFN5vb8The cables looks flexible enoughIt's a gimmick PSU still but the Edge also was and it's very solid build quality so this one should be too
>>107588785gimmicky lian li electronics = questionable durabilityi would avoid it until its at least a year old and doesnt have a ton of user reported issues
>>10758886812-14k a pop would be funny
>>107588868im hoping my 5090 will be worth at least 0.75 trillions by then to subsidize the cost of a new 6090
>>107588686what's it with zoomers and millenials keeping stickers on everything. even on their silly hats.moronic.
RAM is probably more valuable than gold at this point.
Posting again for an potential answer.>>107586268
Im about to buy a used SSD with only 2TBW written.Convince me not to, /v/bros
>>107589183good deal.
>>107589136>t. a guy without a stickerif you have it use it and hats were made to be decorated anyway, if your hat is not a fancy hat what is the point of it? to cover the bald spot?
>>107589203Really ? Pic is seller pic
>>107589183>a used SSD>buyingmight as well shove a cactus up your ass or search for paypig abuse ethots, if you are into that then go for it
Thoughts on the 5080 MSI 16G VENTUS 3X OC Model?

>Nvidia is reportedly planning to cut production of its GeForce RTX 50 series GPUs by up to 40% in 2026 due to memory shortages$10000 gaming gpus inc
Basically if i want a goos PSU according to HW i have to give monet to NZXT lol
>>107589280>reportedly
>>107589304rm850x 2019 version, zero issuesalso works with their 12vhpwr cables, 2 pcie -> new connector, no issue on a 4080.
What I'm hearing is Donald Trump is going to give every unmarried man an Intel Arc C770.
>>107589310indeed, in reality they won't waste chips for anything but the absolute highest margin workstation cards and there won't be many of them to go around, a mere 40% cut doesn't look severe enough considering the situation.
>OLED went down in price for a day and I thought about for too long and missed out again
buy dont wait
Is it normal to have to push mobos with IO shields against the case to get the standoffs to line up? They seem to be 1 or 2mm off if I just sit it in.
>>107589419use different height standoffs
>>107589419yes. especially if the back panel surrounding the ports is foamy.
>>107589216it should be fine since its from a later batch with the firmware degradation fix
What is the best game to stress my CPU?
>>107589548you don't want that since this results in unstable frame rates and frame times. it's city skylines 2 btw.
We all be building new PCs next year. This is all a hoax to make you buy old parts right now.
>>107589304I would buy a super flower atx 3.1 but i can't fucking find one in EU
We'll never be building new PC ever again. This is your last chance to have your own hardware.
>>107588686Is the RX 9060 XT good if I also want it for slop and VR compared to the 5060 Ti?
>>107589625Nvidia is better at slop from what I've heard. Dunno about VR.
We will build in 3 years paying 10-25% more.
>>107589419Yes, they're supposed to get jammed in there tight. Just don't use too much force.
>>107589261Come on. Someone talk me out of it. Can get free shipping and IDGAF about the warantee because I'm watercooling.
Why does everything looks so slow even though my frames go above 60 and I know how smooth that looks, there must be something really wrong that I'm doing yet have no explanation for that...
>>107589701>1049.99>not gigabyte>on the day rumors say nvidia may cut supply 30-40% soon>after nvidia shat on board partners by refusing to bundle vram for them>after amd announced price hikes are coming in januaryShan't talk you out of it. Fuck your wallet.
>have 64 gb of mem>pc uses 30gb idle>have 128 gb of mem>pc uses 60 gb idlewhat the fuck
>>107589548Low res Cyberpunk 2077 while driving
>>107589701why buy a 5080 when you can buy a 5090? prices will be double by end of 2026, might as well invest now
>>107589701nope, buy it if you can.
I saw this yesterday, should I go back when they open and get it?
>>107589752this
>>107589216Just be careful there are too many fake Samsung nvmes
Is it normal for my q-code display to keep changing constantly while the pc is working normally?
>>107589752Because the 5090 costs 2.5-3x as much if you can even find a decent one.
Is an AM4 system going to pose any potential bottlenecking to a 5090?
>>107589763Well you have to say what it actually costs. Save $400 out of how much? Looks like a whole package including KB+M.>9800x3d>5070Guaranteed ultra gouged prices for suckers
>>107589763I buy poopalso check the ram quality, pre-built always cut costs on psus, rams and storage
>>107589763>save $400 of off markup from building PC cost and useless peripherals Depends, are you from Palestine? Then definitely worth it
>>107589763>save 400doesn't tell me anything, what was the actual price?
>>107589789Your 2 digit readout on the motherboard? If its changing constantly its because its in CPU temp mode after successful post. Confused me the first time too until I realized what it was showing.
>>107589807>>107589806>>107589797fuck my bad, og price is 1899 so 1499 after the sale
>>107589809Thanks anon I was scared
>>107589216https://youtu.be/xb1wzeCCWaY?si=b4RXtYFCZihGaGkUThat's a fake samsung. I knew it. Original ones are made in Vietnam or Thailand
>>107589813buy one for me
>>107589813CPU and GPU alone costs $1.3kAdd to the list RAM, motherboard, PSU, case, cooling, keyboard and mouse...That's a fucking deal!
>>107589813it can come with no ram and ssd and it would still be a deal
>>107589849it probably does come with no ram lol
>>107589858It says 32 gibibytes, what are you blind

But does yours have Ethereal Aurora?
>>107589876Now people from here will steal it from him, happy?
>>107589883why would that matter? you are using a water block right?
>>107589792PCI-e 4 chipset, top end am 4 CPU shouldn't experience a major bottleneck on 5090 but yes it can, you should check the bottleneck calculators before buying.
>>107589895Costco is members only. My local one has the same offer.
>>107589063Yes.
>>107589912Why aren't you buying one and reselling?

Crazy how people were conditioned to just accept 320, 350, 450, and finally 600W GPUs in the last 5 years after bitching about Fermi, Hawaii, and Vega. Hell even the 1080 Ti was seen as hot and hungry.
>>107589983>personally used 7800x3D on a b650 aorus elite ax>now 9800x3D>zero issue for over a yearit's fine.
>>107589310the market runs on zpsculation and vibes
>>107589991to me it's crazy some 5090s draw 800 watts. my 4080 at 70% power limit uses like 220 watts and the fans are at like 30% and inaudible basically.
>>107589991energy is cheaper
>>107589991don't forget the arson connector but sheeple will eat it all up
>>107589969>hellhound mascot>not a succubus or cerberus like anime bitchYawnThat butt though....
>>107589980>Send 5 weeks tuning your ram manually for 5 more fps out of your cpu that already will never bottleneck your gpu at 1440p everI'll do buildzoid ez timings later maybe when I can be bothered but no kill yourself. I bought this board for the good VRM and heatsinks, not to be a retard sitting in his bios and running karhu ram test all day for no gain.>>107589967That was a redditor that literally jammed it into the socket. The ASSCock cases you can't even see anything on the socket or cpu
Via BenchLife>In addition to the news from Board Channels, several AIC partners and component suppliers have also mentioned to us that NVIDIA will be the first to adjust the supply of GeForce RTX 5070 Ti and GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16 GB GDDR7.So basicslly buy a 5060 Ti or 5070 Ti right now seems like the best value move among current gen? Because fuck dealing with 3090's power draw and triple slot shit.
>>107590019the vrm doesn't matter with a 9800x3d
>>107589961Yes, funded by the finest Reichsmarks
>>1075900053090 Ti had the best power delivery ironically
Why does ryzen need to train memory every startup?
>>107589990i was replying to our favorite troon i don't care what you thinkall motherboard manufacturers are the same btw, it's a taiwanese cartel>>107589995that's because you're not a fag so god doesn't think you deserve it>>107590019it's gonna explode bro
>>107589998>my 4080 at 70% power limit uses like 220 watts and the fans are at like 30% and inaudible basically.Did you undervolt too? Also the heatsink difference must be crazy given my 2070 Ventus 3X is loud as balls at the mimimum 30% fan speed (1450 RPM)
>>107588894>Asus prime 9070xt>PremiumWhat did she mean by this?
>>107590043Right? It isn't intel arc
>>107589998Yeah I have a 4090 and 5090 and I'm not sure what exactly they did but the latter uses a lot more juice. Maybe it's the memory bus width and gddr7 or maybe it's the vcore, who knows.

>>107590067go on
>>107590064Been saying this for a little while now, it's the same shit they've been pushing in India. Everyone will have a subscription-based terminal, and even if you have hardware at home, asshole tech companies will eventually require it for "security reasons".

>>107590064Huh?
i have never needed more than 1TB of storage
>>107590211i have.
>>107590234You're cute.
i've officially been spooked into buyingi don't think this shit is going to get better in a yearanyway, here's the shopping list for my saturday trip to micro centerlike, comment and subscribe
>>107590247i have a nas for that. no spinning rust in my system.
hello, FBI? this one right here >>107590247
>>107590260Built from scratch or you bough a prebuilt NAS?Been wanting to move my 400TB NAS to ZFS. Currently using OMV for it since at the time ZFS didn't have a way to add drives individually. Now that they did I don't really have an excuse not to use ZFS anymore.
>>107590211>had 1 tibibyte NVME SSD>it was +90% full>upgraded to 4 tibibytes of NVME SSD storage>barely get to 1 tibibyte usedI don't get it
>>107590299build from a free office pc with ubuntu server. it's more of a game server that also has my zfs share on it i guess
what do I do?
just noticed that i can create a steam library on my smb share. i can play games from my nas lmao.
>>107590317Aaaaaaa. I don't really feel like moving my files. 400TB is a lot. I can let it run in the background but it'll take weeks to copy.
>>107590350zfs is great. i can tell you that but moving 400tb is going to take time.
>>107590347PS2 also supports Network Iso Streaming as well. It's faster to play your games through ethernet than disc drive or local HDD.
>>107590358It need an adapter though. Some models didn't come with it. Mine did so I'm able to do it.I think the PS3 can also do it, not sure, but I just FTP into it instead.
>>107590337How this happened? What kind of cable is this?I use one I got with seasonic PSU and it just works
>>107590374its the one that came with my corsair 850
>>107590373All PS2 slim models come with ethernet. Its the fat models that need a module. Also yes you can do the same thing on PS3.https://consolemods.org/wiki/PS3:PS3netsrv
>>107590337what are your pc specs? how long have you had it before it burnt
>>107590358well the ps2 is just mounting a disk image file and sees the folders as is from a harddrive or a disk drive. with windows games its a bit more complex since windows games expect a certain path with a drive letter and have many folders and files in their folders that don't map well to an smb share. i remember it wasn't possible before. you had to create a iscsi share and couldn't use smb.
>>107590393only a week, 5090 aorus and intel i9-14900K not sure about the ram brand my friend gave it to me
>>107590403damn that sucks bro, try contacting gigabyte for a new gpu first. if they give you the run around then contact corsair for help in fixing both your psu and gpu. if gigabyte doesn't give you any trouble then contact corsair for a new psu replacement
>>107590412will try, thank you
>>107590398For PC games you can straight up local stream. Low Latency AV1 encode/decode is possible thanks to modern GPUs and new ARM devices.
>>107590386Is it 5090?Were you overclocking?
>>107590445yeah aorus ice, and no all stock
>>107590337>>107590386This is why power limits/undervolts are a must. Those transient spikes are deadly on these overkill GPUs. Can hit as high as more than 1000w on some models.
>>107590459Imagine if people's cars were blowing up for going down slopes lmao
>>107590337>>107590450damn man.
>>107590450How you're running 5090 on a 850W PSU? What the hell
>>107590467Early Tesla Beta Testers
>>107590386I had thought the double ended 12vhpwr wouldn't give any troubleFwiw, the 12vhpwr is quite terrible in its current state since a slight change in how tightly it is fitted for that installation cycle can greatly affect how current is distributed. I have an astral that measures per-pin current and use a 2x 8-pin to 12vhpwr corsair cable which on a random install, tend to vary anywhere from 4A to 13A of current in the worst and best pin while the cable is only rated for 9.2A and a perfect distrbution at 600W should be about 8.33A per cable which never happens. It takes like 5-30 minutes of reinserting the cable and moving it about to get it to an 7.6-8.5A (~10%) spread.Unfortunately for the aorus master, you would need an external tool like the $200 thermalgrizzly wireview pro 2 to get the same per-pin current measurement of the astral so that you can prevent the cable from melting in future
>>107590496nta but why are you using that instead of 2x6?
>>107590459Nvdia only problem
>>107590496Why is your voltage so low?
>>107590505I'm on an older rm1000i PSU and didn't want to change it when I didn't have to. But seeing how much this cable vdroops (~0.300v) under 600w load, I'm thinking of getting a proper atx3.1 PSU soon, provided I find one that checks all the boxes>>107590521The current was low because the input voltage was high at the time. Add 0.3A to all pins' measurements when the voltage is at 12.05v instead of the 12.25v it was at the time of the screenshot.
>>107590496Boy am I glad I didn't get astral. Watching uneven current while anxiously feel the need to reinsert the cable in the GPU would drive me insane. Out of view out of mind.
>>107590535what does atx 3.1 do again? i thought it had smaller pin holes or sumthin
as
Any chance for AMD to restart 5700X3D and 5800X3D production?I literally can't find them under 300-350 bucks anymore. If 3D is now at absurd prices, should I get a 5950X for 250 bucks? Or maybe I could just go with a cheaper 5800X that's still produced?
>>107590542The main differentiator is that it has a 12v-2x6 terminal on the PSU end, and atx3.1 requires the PSU to pass stricter transient loading tests which raises the minimum quality floor of PSUs compared to atx2.4 PSUs
>>107590514Rdna2 also had transient spike issues for their upper models. "Muh driver timeout" is the PSU not coping with the sudden power demand.
>>107590459Transients don't do shit for temps and heat. It's average power, resistance and current distribution that affects how hot these cables get.A major issue is that this cable is engineered to work in ideal perfect conditions with no additional margin to account for external factors.
there appears to be no practical benefit to running two pcs on one monitor here on my end but damn if it isn't the coolest thing ever
>>107590557Nope. they want you to buy AM5. 7800x & 9600x are just as fast if not faster.

>>107590561>mfw 360w spikes on a shit 750 psu
>>107590247Very cute anonBut really, I should do something about my data hoarding disease. But then again, I'm convinced it's the right thing to do. The future looks more and more grim and every little warning sign from back then is becoming true. And worse than anticipated.
>>107590539The thing is that it doesn't have to be perfect. All you need to do is make sure none of the pins are slacking off with a terrible connection and overloading the better ones and the remaining pins will balance themselves out
Still running an overclocked 6800XT on a 15yo 650W PSU. Watch me not giving a fuck.
>>107590608there is absolutely nothing wrong with data hoarding if you can afford it, in fact it would be weirder not to, especially so in the current world state

Recently got a new PC used some parts from my old PC I do not have a job and so am on an extremely tight budget so these were all bought on sale and are not the best I could have got I just wanted a more modern platform I have been stuck on a Z170A and i7 7700k since like 2016/17.Please rate and recommend upgrades I am going to get an i5 or i7 at some point and I would love 32GB RAM but it is very expensive.I love the speed of the SSD it is amazing and although the i3 is very low end (I got it for like 60 GBP) it has sorted the bottleneck I was having with my GPU.ASRock B760M-HDV/M.2 - Mobo16.0GiB Kingston DDR5 RGB - RAMIntel® Core™ i3-14100F - CPUNVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 4060 - GPUPredator SSD GM7 1TB - NVME SSDPNY CS1311 480GB SSD - Extra Sata SSDEVGA SuperNOVA 650 G2 - PSUMSI MAG FORGE 100R - Case
>>107590630I haven't touched my connector in 8 months + I've power limited 5090 and overclocked.Feels safe.
Thanks for the advice over the last week or two. Went on and ordered the 5080. Have Ram and one 8TB nvme. Gonna keep an eye out for another cheap nvme and see how part prices develop over the next month or two to get a 9800x3d, MB, dark power 14 PSU, and watercooling parts.
>>107590743Why do you need 8TB NVMe?
>>107590743How much did you pay for 5080?
>>107590764For Porn
>>107590784Oh, so you're just wasting money. Carry on.
>>107590666>its okay for it to blow up if you do stuff other than gaming
>>107590764The PC I'm retiring has aorund 7TB of games on it discounting roms (which will be kept on a SATA still), and I'll be buying many other new games once I finish the build. Anyway I got it cheap from a relative who bought it for video work but didn't need it.>>107590768I ordered this one:>>107589701
>>107590810Are your playing all those games at once or something?I use a 2TB NVMe and my games folder is around 100TB in my NAS. I just cpy the game files over if I want to play it.
>>107588686Alright lads. I need a 7800x3d upgrade to go with my gpu. Going from a i7 10700. Budget is around £800. Absolutely pissed atbrhe prices but im old hardware and was going to wait till February, but thinkjng it will be worse by then. Prob be the last time i ever upgrade.
>>107590873Shouldn't even consider an upgrade to a ddr5 platform unless you can source 32gb of ddr5 for less than 200-300 euro.
>>107590843I do jump around a lot but more than anything I prefer to avoid reinstallation/rewriting as much as possible especially on SSDs. My old PC has a 14YO kingston svp100 SSD as the C drive which still works perfectly because I was always careful to minimize rewriting on it.Call it unnecessary but with the future so uncertain I'll bite the bullet on getting more storage now and babying it.
>>107590743congratulations anon, you are set for the next 5+ years, enjoy your new shit and mega comfy status of the guy who bought before RAMaggedon and NANDpocalypse
>>107590892>I prefer to avoid reinstallation/rewriting as much as possible especially on SSDsOh, okay. You're just retarded then.
>>107590918Yeah, nah. More storage = happier bees.
>>107590887£299 is the price for 2x16gb corsair vengeance 6000mt. I have £800
>>107590953I probably have more storage than you. I'm just not retarded and worrying about 'rewriting on SSDs'.
cant build new comp until late jan early feb, am i cooked for good /g/?
>>107590764more storage > less storage, reason is irrelevant
>>107590973Nigga, if you aren't treating every component like you'll never be able to replace it again you need to get your head in the game. It's fucking cooked out here.
>>107590961If it's the last upgrade you're planning you could wait for the 9850x3d in early 2026. Else wise the remaining £500 after buying ram should get you a 7800x3d + decent b850 + maybe even an air cooler. Whatever you decide by whatever ram you can NOW.
>>107590976you are cooked
>>107590976Buy GPU now, if you are building on DDR5 and haven't bought a cheap kit you are already cooked. if you are making a ddr4 shitbox you are most likely cooked.The correct play is to use buy now pay later 0% service today and then just pay it over the next year or whatever period you get. It will literally save you 500-2k+ if you are planning to build in the next 3 years.
>>107590979Yeah, but why an NVMe? Do you even need the fast speed? If you just want raw storage then you can buy 48TB of HDD space for the same price as an 8TB NVMe.
>>107590992If i get this will my samsung 970nvme ssd be ok for a short while till i recover and able to afford one?
>>107591021>>107590992Also i have an arctic liquid freezer 2 240 and apparently it can be used for am5 cpu so wouldnt need a cooler. Thought id getbthe cheap one till i can get a better one in the future.
>>107591021m.2 slots are backwards compatible, the 970 will run at its pcie 3 speeds no problem. I'd get a better cooler like a peerless assassin or phantom spirit 120 though.
>>107591002maybe he doesn't want an HDD, maybe he wants 8tb of NVMe? purely for "its cool smol stick" reason? also until very recently you could get 8tb of NVMe 100$ cheaper than 8tb of sata SSD of equal top end quality.Personally I agree and I'd go for HDD spam as well but that is me and you. regardless of preferences, type, form factor or even pricemore storage > less storage, always.
>>107591032Ah nvm just use that aio then, no problems, use the money saved on cooling for an atx sized motherboard and you're set.
Q27G40XMN for $250 or AW2725D for $550? I'm worried about burn in and text clarity for OLED.
>>107591002I have HDDs already, but I use those to hoard movies and backup shit. If I can get big NVMEs well below MSRP and I can avoid offloading games to my HDDs and avoid unnecessary re-installs/writes it's just a win-win right now. Big HDDs are going up in price anyway because data centers are buying them up also, so it's not like I can just count of grabbing tons of those in the future anyway.
OLED vs Mini-LED vs IPS for a not-too-bright room, mixed usage?
>>107590993>>107590995i have no money right now and am between jobs. Its over I guess...
Is 5060ti 16gb good for 1440p? Deciding between 1080 or 1440p monitor. I'm stuck with a 5060ti for 2 years probably
>>107591142well if your new job can cover the extra you will have to shill out its not that bad, painful but oh well
>>107591078>Big HDDs are going up in price anyway because data centers are buying them up alsoI can tell you already don't know fucking shit about the subject. lmaoData centers don't use HDDs anymore. Every single one of them moved to SSDs, or a SAS hybrid. No company is buying regular SATA HDDs.
>>107590557It's over, if you didn't buy X3D you are done for now. And be careful of scams, there are many fake 5700/5800X3D listings nowadays where I live.
>64GB DDR5 kit i bought for 240 euro just hit 930 euroholy fucking shit it's never been more over for waitfags
>>107591195>holy fucking shit it's never been more over for waitfagsI've been "waitfagging" since 2018 and I'm doing just fine, I can go another 5 years at least without an upgrade easy
>>107591131OLED is still the bestMiniLED is copeIPS is budget
>>107591195there is still no shortage on the consumer segment, this is literally a prelude
>>107591180>No company is buying regular SATA HDDs.I cant imagine being this confidently wrong. HDDs are still the vast majority of storage and they are sata. SAS has a very specific use case needed to bother with.t. Anon who did data security for Google
>>107591216>OLED is still the bestText clarity and burn in aren't an issue anymore?
>>107591195I dont get it. How can waitfags lose if they havent spend anything and dont plan to do that anytime soon
>>107591239Holy fuck, you are so wrong. lmao
>>107591180Maybe actually go read literally any recent article on the subject. Data centers are currently buying massive amounts of HDDs for bulk data storage.Will you next assert data centers gobbling HBM has no effect on DDR availability or something simillarly goofy?
>>107591250avoid Quantum Dot if you care about text clarityCRT has burn in too but people never complained because they used their brain when using a computer
>>107591180>tmw you think your 50tb of storage in mom's basement counts for a datacentre
>gigabyte X870E aorus elite The picture is from the manual and the actual connectors.As far as I can tell, it does not state whether I need to plug in both of these (or which one). But, I assume, since they both have the foolproof square/beveled connector pattern, they are both exclusively for CPU.Using a second one is for overclocking, right? I can just choose either 4x2 connector slot and leave the other unplugged?I do not really intend to overclock the CPU.https://youtu.be/_cs6s-UFqGA?t=750This is a different version of the same motherboard, so slightly different, but he connects 4x2 + 4x1.
>>107591263I guess those two years of shredding hundreds of sata HDDs a day where just imaginary
>>107591180wrooong lol lmao omega wrong, fucking clueless levels of wrong, absolutely unaware.Most and by that I mean 99.98% of global HDD production is directly consumed by the gaping sata holes of the datacenters swarm and then going straight into the shredder without ever experiencing consumer touch
>>107591279No current am5 cpu needs the 2nd plug so yeah just leave 1 unplugged.
>>107591274So get something like the Asus XG27AQDMG?
>>107590337>8 pins = 150W>12 tiny pins = 600Wsure, nvidia
>>107591131>>107591216OLED is only the best in terms of visual quality. in terms of longevity it gets annihilated by IPS. OLED will degrade over the years, losing both brightness and vibrance as well as experiencing burn in if you're using static imagery (such as a windows taskbar for example). IPS doesn't degrade other than the LED's maybe losing some peak brightness over many years of use but nothing like OLED.>>107591250they definitely are. OLED will always degrade, lose brightness and gets burn in. it is inherent to the technology. you gain superior quality and perfect blacks vs IPS, but you lose longevity. my parents bought a high-end OLED from LG some years ago (TV) and when i ran a screen test this year the entire center had significantly faded (oval pattern, spreading out) and there was burn in of TV logo's in the corners (not too bad actually, the brightness fading in the center of the screen was much worse). meanwhile my IPS monitor from that same era hasn't changed one bit, which is obvious if you know how they work.
>>1075911595060ti should be fine for 1440p60For 1440p120+ you probably will want a 5070+
>>107591279There's no harm plugging in both if your psu has the cables for it. It helps keep the cable running cooler and reduce voltage droop if you have both installed
>>107591159Even if you stick with 1080p consider a 4k monitor with 1080p mode if you can spring for it.
>>1075913114 trillion dollar company btw

It occurs to me. Are AI datacenters using magnetic tape ala IBM 3592? I know the cloud hyperscalers are using it, but I dunno how much storage volatility factors in for AI companies.
>>107591449tapes are for backups because they're inherently meant for sequential reading. ai sloppers prefer HDD for capacity and SSD for speed, there is -some- tape usage but it's way less compared to hdd/ssd
>>107591250>text clarity I can see text pretty clearly on my 4k 27" 240Hz asus pg27ucdm oled monitor.

>>107591606>>107591619everyone is using DLSS4/FSR4. quality mode at 4k is 1440p so you get the performance of it but better quality than a native 1440p display.

>>107591596matrix drops the wattage per connector to 4090 levels and is much safer than any other 5090
>>107591652your fps tanks running native because all the work is done on your shader units instead. with DLSS4/FSR4 the work is offloaded to the tensor cores/ai accelerators freeing the cuda cores\stream processors for 3d work.reflex+gsync & antilag2+freesync negates the latency penalty.>>107591656the output resolution is still 4k which looks better than 1440p.

How bad are miniLED VA viewing angles for productivity?
>>107591838>Trying to find a monitor for video / photo editing and some gaming. decided on getting a budget mini-led, but it's a hard choice to decide between the XIaomi g27 pro, AOC Q27G3XMN/BK, and KTC M27T6.>Leaning more towards the KTC but I wonder if IPS mini-leds are 'better' than HVA in my case. Also, the only way I can purchase the ktc is through aliexpress, which I have no experience with, but the price and ratings look really tempting. Poland btwOrdering off Ali is fine (I've done it several times) and the KTC would be my choice as well of the VA based options if you went that route. For Mini-LED IPS vs Mini-LED VA, it basically comes down to whether you value contrast most at the cost of narrower viewing angles and some black smearing aka inverse ghosting in gaming. Personally, I don't think the tradeoff is worth it in your case since you have a mix of use cases and IPS is a better all-purpose display tech. IPS does have panel glow but the Mini-LED local dimming compensates for it to a large degree but still has more blooming than a VA panel will (see webm).Also you can see head-to-head benchmark comparisons of the AOC Q27G3XMN/BK vs. Xiaomi g27 Pro here:https://www.rtings.com/monitor/tools/compare/xiaomi-g-pro-27i-vs-aoc-q27g3xmn/71604/41611One thing I might recommend is if you can spring for a 27" 4K panel it would really improve your editing experience with the extra digital real estate for Content + Window/GUI management and overall sharpness with a higher pixel density for the same physical area.
I must applaud MSI for at least having the decency to make the FentUS 3X shroud easy to take apart without voiding the warrranty and WOW that is a sad bloody heatsink for a dual slot 150-200W card. This could have easily been a single slot GPU.WHY THE FUCK DID I NOT DESHROUD THIS 4 YEARS SOONER AND ZIP TIES SOME BETTER FANS?!? OR BETTER YET RETURNED IT???
>>107591978The cheapest I can see that RAM anywhere else is $550+, so I'd say that's a solid deal in today's fucked up RAM market.
>>107592086whats wrong w/ it
>>107592090>>107591978Forgot picThey WERE like $200-250 not more than 2-3 months ago, but still a good deal for today.
>>107591978Eh, not too badLook up buildzoid's 24gbit m-die 6000cl30 timings and you're good to go
>>107592004>Give at least 1 reason what is wrong with burn in videos?how did you land on this conclusion when I posted one in the first place>You're literally obsessed with some faggotsthey are literally testing a different tech all together (qdoled monitor vs woled tv)plus yes they are faggots they are paid and sponsored by companies which they cannot discuss and intentionally withhold negative information about product, they are faggots and not an authority on anything
>>107592102The fans suck ans are loud as balls, limited to 30% minimum speed even though the cooler is literally capped by the heatsink. It makes no sense to run the 90mm fans at 1450 RPM, the two 100mm fans on the 2X were probably quieter. At the same time if this was the cooler from my 290X it would have probably been almost passive.
>>107592071Not that anon but my use case is more or less the same, any recommendations for 27" mixed usage displays below around $400 or so? I guess IPS would be my only real option there? On a 4070 so 4K is probably out of the question
>>107592111Yeah I planned to do 6000Mhz 28-36-36-30 at 1.35V. But i'll research more and see what others are doing first.>>107592105>>107592090Thanks, yeah the RAM looked like a good price considering they had 2x16GB kits that cost just as much or more.
>>107592118All you did was bitching about them being paid shills.Burn in videos do exactly what they're supposed to. If you want to check how bad burn in gets on oleds after certain amount of time it's good source. Prove me wrong.
I have choice paralysis over cooler and psu...
>>107592130You'd need to get very lucky for 1.35v to work. Expect 1.4-1.45v for cl28 though you can even go up to 1.5-1.6v if you have a fan blowing at the ram
>>107592156Cooler: cheaper is betterPSU: Cybenetics
>>107592157Well it's a high airflow (relatively) case (Corsair 750D Airflow) with 5x 140mm Noctua fans, so I could maybe push 1.5V just due to the airflow, but we'll find out.I'm not building until tomorrow anyway as I'm waiting on the NH-D15 to show up.
is it the fate of all $2000+ dollar rigs to end up as enterprise-grade youtube machines
>>107589820They're made in Korea too anon
>>107592220For me it's fortnite and gacha games.
>>107592220I've been playing PSO.The 5080 handles it very well.
>GPU heatsink sits so low I literally could have attached full height 120mm fans and it wouldn't have gone past 2.2 sloteAre you fucking KIDDING ME, this is so insulting. Why the fuck didn't I think about spending an afternoon to check deshrouding this piece of shit years sooner when it would have probably made things so much quieter and helped my sanity? It literally lines up perfectly with 120mm fans, save for the end of the heatsink.Now I just need to order a fan splitter and figure out the impossible task of removing the jtec connectors from the PCB...
>>107592198its not quite the same. having a dedicated fan blowing at the ram reduces temps by 10C over simply having case fans blow air around it
>>107592295you could probably sandwich a 80mm fan in there and it'd span the full length of the card and look much cleaner
>>107592328It would probably have to be two 60mm fans in a grid at the end.
>>107591368https://pcpartpicker.com/list/pBFyspRoast me bros... should I do it? This still puts me in my budget.
>>107592355looks good
>>107592319looks like I should be able to do 6000MT 30-36-36-30 1.4V without too much difficulty and without needing direct airflow for cooling.
>>107592355How are you getting the ram so cheap? Is the crisis over?
>>107592125>Not that anon but my use case is more or less the same, any recommendations for 27" mixed usage displays below around $400 or so? I guess IPS would be my only real option there? On a 4070 so 4K is probably out of the questionI'd still recommend a 4K model as you can always use 1440p DLSS or turn down in-game settings if FPS is a bit low. Since a monitor typically carries with your system through many years of upgrade cycles you don't want it to be your bottleneck vs. the PC's guts. Currently the KTC M27P6 (4K MiniLED-IPS) for $425 is unbeatable for value:https://pcpartpicker.com/product/VHQwrH/ktc-m27p6-270-3840-x-2160-160-hz-monitor-m27p6https://www.displayninja.com/ktc-m27p6-review/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JranOxeRXHcIf you still want a 1440p monitor with MiniLED-IPS there are slim pickings:https://www.displayninja.com/mini-led-monitor-list/Of those options with a decent LED count @ 27" (>1000 zones) your best bet is probably the Xiaomi G Pro 27i @ $368:https://www.amazon.com/Xiaomi-Mini-LED-2560x1440-Freesync-Adjustable/dp/B0DBYPQY8Fhttps://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/xiaomi/g-pro-27iThough you also might just shelve the MiniLED @ 1440p and get a normal 1440p Budget Fast-IPS like ASRock PG27QFT1B which is currently sitting at $137:https://pcpartpicker.com/product/LfzXsY/asrock-pg27qft1b-270-2560-x-1440-180-hz-monitor-pg27qft1b

Wife not a fan of the PC room with the kids, she says she feels alone…All of the kids and me come stay in that room for recreation…She gonna make me get rid of it isn’t she…
>>107592542add another pc in the room for her to play on
>>107592542Look bro, I don't want to armchair psychiatrist you but are you sure you and the kids go there for fun, or to escape your wife? Move the PC in the living room then. If the wife says no, or you stop having fun because you're not in a room away from your wife then it's the wife that's the problem.You should be sharing your house with your wife. If she has say in the majority if the rooms then is it really sharing a house or you living with her?Good luck bro, this is why I don't want to get married, ever.
>>107592542pop another one into her or you are in trouble
you guys kept telling me to wait and it just kept getting worse and worse
>>107592617:D
I can get a brand new RTX 4080 (not Super) for $700. Is this a good deal and will I have problems with a i5-12400 and 32GB of DDR4 at 4K?
>>107592617bullshit, this thread was shouting at everyone to buy since summer and aseptically so since october
If my GPUs firmware or bios limits my fan speed to a 30% minimum, is that usually a fixed RPM number or the percentage of any fan I plug into the PCB? For instance, if I plug in some 1200 RPM PWM fans instead, will they run at a lower RPM than say, MSI's stock torx fans?
>>107592622Is it an FE? If it's really new then it's a good price. If it's an FE model then it's still lower than the average price.If it was me and I need the upgrade I would get it.
>>107592650>or the percentage of any fanThis.Doesn't matter if it's a 140mm fan or am 80mm fan. It will be 30%.
>>107592605Can’t move the pc to the living room because all the wiring is done in this room, she likes the sofa cause it comfy and i’ve explained to her about the home networking issue but it goes through her head.Plus she has stated the kids and I are too loud she can’t watch her shows before we had the room, so I don’t get the winning choice here.
>>107592654It is an FE, yes. I'd be upgrading from a 3070 which really isn't cutting it, even with DLSS.
just sold a kit of ram to the most salaryman looking man i've ever seen in my life
>>107592673>I'd be upgrading from a 3070You plan on selling that 3070? They're around $200 So in reality you're only spending $500 for the 4080. I would honestly get it. Used 4080s are $750. FE is apparently $850 so I was wrong there.If you can afford it, get it. It's a really good price.
>ram got too hot and pc crashedRemember to add that ram fan folks!
>>107592736That happened to me too, I just lowered the overclock and voltage
>>107592736Or just don't have shitty little hot boxes you guys buyThat's why I buy fucking full towers
>>107592800proof?
>>107588686so i was thinking about finally buying a gpu before the market implodes again. i play on 1080p, maybe i could think about later upgrading to 1440p but that's a big maybeanyways, my options now areasus prime or sapphire pulse rx 9070 for 600€windforce or ventus 2x rtx 5070 for about 600€gygabyte radeon or asus prime or sapphire pulse rx 9070 xt for about 700-720€what would you suggest? best bang for buck should be the 9070 (not xt) but at the same time I worry not getting nvidia dlss could fuck me over as globogayming seems to be always sucking nvidias cock, sometimes not releasing fsr like expedition 33 not releasing fsr4
>>107593005Get 3 fans if you care about noise and thermalsLook up to hardware or pcpower charts for temp and noise comparisons for brandUse ChatGPT or fine print for warranty lengthsThen quickly buy asap and don't let it sit - use it asap to check for coil whine or problems so you can exchange or RMA within window

>OLED doesn't burn in anymore >OLED lasts 3-5 yearsWho do I trust?
>>107593105your wallet and not the wallet shark (jew)
the nvidia gpu cutback rumor has caused me to panic buy
>>107593105OLEDs do burn in, but monitors now have ways to prevent it. Every 4-8 hours, they just need to run a "cleanup" process that takes just 30 minutes.
>buy a 5090>nvidia decides to stop making GPU'sSorry guys looks like I was the last one
>>107593123does that really eliminate burn in?
>>107593177it just rapes all your other pixels to compensate. remindes of old crts that took a little to fully work. those monitors need a little time to shut down properly.
>>107593177Yes. It shifts the pixels and basically does the opposite of whatever they were displaying in order to undo the damage. Just run it after every gaming session and you'll be fine.
>>107593118This. Need to buy TODAY, because it's the last chance of a getting a GPU under $1000 for the next 10-20 years.
>>107593105You have to make sure the one you get has a clean process that shifts the pixels, and another process that will as stated earlier takes 30 minutes to reset it. Old OLEDs without the feature do burn in badly
>>107593118I bought a GPU about a week ago and now it has a several hundred dollar price increase
Just boughted a 9070 XT and a 2TB nvme (you should too, the ssd I mean).
what the FUCK is this shimmering and flickering in modern games if I don't use DLSS/DLAA about? What the fuck is that what is causing it.
>>107593238like with most things you can thank nvidia and lazy devs for that. enjoy your slop.
>>107593238It's a lack of TAA. You need it in most modern games because they built their entire lighting engine around it. If you disable it, the visuals become sharper, but you get shimmering/flickering. DLSS/DLAA are a better form of TAA. Use them in any game that forces TAA on to minimize TAA's blurriness.
>>107593238Because modern engines are build around temporal aa to hide a bunch or artifacts
one last /pcbg/ QA check before i pull the triggertotal price is $2,074 w/ tax due to a micro center bundle
>>107593238All games are built around nvidia now, and are inheritly unoptomized
>>107593283217 case is Designed for work with RS not Edge PSuS
>>107593194wait it damages all pixels equally so the burn in doesn't show up as a visible shape?
>>107593105>>OLED doesn't burn in anymoreno one unless retarded says this>>OLED lasts 3-5 yearsmost monitors have a 3 year warrantyLG G tv panels have a 5 year panel warrantyuse/abuse panel swap/insurance policies to extend your burn in autism if you intend to destroy panels inherentlycombine with stop being poor for maximum satisfactionif you buy lcd, you buy pre-shit panels that are shit and continue to enshittify as they go onyou will fall fate of the lcd lasts forever-meme and your lcd panel will die prematurely or have a fuck up due you thinking you will get 15 years run time on that garbageminileds don't last longer as they run panel hot as fuck and will be prone to getting destroyed too along with all the inherent shit problems they already have
What the fuckWhy has nobody told me this everIs this true? 1440p is screwing me over worse than 1080p or even 4K would?
>>107593308Yes.
>>107593177>>107593201>does the opposite of whatever they were displaying in order to undo the damageNope. You can't un-fuck the pixels that are already fucked.What you can do is measure electrical resistance of each pixel one by one because it changes with burn-in, and dim the good pixels to match the bad ones.
>>107593335no refunds
>>1075933351440p is a garbage stepping stone resolution and nobody should ever use it. 1080p for low end. 4K for high end. That's it, ignore everything else.
>>1075933351440p has 2 paths>povertymaxxing27" 180hz IPS>claritymaxxing480-540hz 27" 1440p oled

>>107593168How are you going to get it replaced when the 12pin burns?
>>107593341that's smartbut oleds are already kinda dim, how much brightness do they lose per year from this?
>>107593572About 80-100 nits, which is why it's toast in 5 years.
>>107593593so a 300 nits screen lasts like 2 years?
>>107591368>msi psuthat's like lol
>>107591690yet I can't buy one, curious
>>107593593>>107593622It will clip HDR peaks first and those are ~1000 nitsTypical home desktop is 120 nitsBasement dwellers often lower it to 80 nitsSo it's closer to 10 years until if affects SDR desktop brightness
>>107593670that sounds good
>>107593670Oh but also if you only use it at low brightness it will degrade less, that 80-100 nits estimate is for living room TVs
>>107593238Lack of TAA. DLSS is required.
