If you have a microcenter nearby, check their RAM available.
I snagged a 2x24GB 7600MHz CL36 kit for $360 (2x16GB CL36 kits were $340+). And the only reason the 2x24GB kit was that cheap is because no one buys 7600Mhz RAM (too slow for Intel, too fast for AMD). But you can manually adjust the frequency/timings for 6000Mhz CL30, even though they're selling 2x24GB CL30 kits for $500+.

I grabbed the last one in stock at my store, but I saw online their other locations still had stock.

>>107601346
Stop putting the RTX 5070 TI in the 4K tier. It's a GPU meant to crush most tasks in 1440p, not muh 4K. If you have the money for a 4k monitor with high refresh rates, you're going to have to shell out a lot more money for a good graphics card or you will be disappointed. A 9950X3D is a decent compromise between a workstation CPU and one that does non-workstation tasks, but it's not a workstation CPU, that would be something like a threadripper or ${INTEL_EQUIVALENT}.

Exactly, you think you're entitled to not update the OP because you've got some weird fetish fued going on.

It's egotistical and trying to claim someone ELSE has an ego because they want you to keep the OP up to date with relevant information is just you gas lighting to prevent anyone from making the obvious conclusion, that you're an egotistical entitled cunt who thinks he "owns" the OP post because he's a terminally online autistic retard.

What's a good AM4 cpu (not the currently overpriced X3D aftermarket chip preferably, shit's like 400 dollars) to upgrade from a gen 1 8-core Ryzen, was gonna do a full upgrade to AM5 next year but with all the jewish AI shit happening decided to just hedge/buy some time, got a 5060ti 16gb on sale to upgrade my 1060, and thinking about what other patchwork upgrades I can do instead that will last 2-3 more years.

>>107601674
If you want to cheap out, the 8-core 5700x is good. 5800x and 5800xt are higher binned versions of this chip and are also okay if they don't cost you too much more. Otherwise, the 16-core 5900xt is also a pretty nice option if you change your mind and want to stay am4 for a long time

You're the same faggot that refuses to use or acknowledge other threads and will make your own even if another pcbg thread is up and claim you didn't know because you filtered that person, despite the fact you can't filter an anonymous poster linking to a new thread, you'd have seen the new thread linked, seen it (or have it get filtered, but only after you had seen it), and THEN you decided to make your own thread to "compete" because you're just such a well adjusted terminally online retard.

Based pic choice OP

For anyone wondering whether it’s worth getting a 5090 over a 5070 Ti, yes it very much is. The 5070 Ti manages to deliver only okayish FPS right now, but it’s already close to its limits. With just one more graphics update (or something similar), you’ll likely be forced to turn settings down or rely on DLSS.

Considering the rumors that Nvidia is cutting back on consumer GPU production, upgrading later might not even be an option. On top of that, the 5090 could end up being the last GPU to fully support Windows 10

i need help /g/ !
i have calculated my current PC power draw at 100% and it's 560W (monitor included) so i was wondering, what UPS should i take to protect my PC ?
my old one died so i need a new one ASAP but i will upgrade to an RTX 6070 Ti when it will be released (maybe in 2 years).
considering my RTX 3070 eats 240W (it's an OC version) and the RTX 5070 Ti eats 300W (i'm guessing some OC's version take 20W more), that's at least a future power draw of 640W minimum.

so what UPS wattage should i take ?
is 700W too little ?

Thanks to the anon who told me to get a 5060ti at MSRP and overclock it.
Got a stable 15% performance increase with some overclocking&undervolting, and it runs very cool.

I'm currently using a samsung QD-VA panel, the colors are nice but i just can't deal with backlights anymore. it has that same back knob, hasn't broken, but the monitor itself has some kind of massive "desyncing" problem when it gets too cold. the picture becomes unviewable, random pixel garbage except the top ~50 scanlines until I switch it to a higher power-consuming mode for a while and it heats up again

This is pc building general not pre built pc general. We talk about building computers here and have autistic brand wars all day. We don't review Alienware and HP Omen computers.

>>107602356
>intel posters
Never seen one.

just bought a koorui 24e3 for $129 CAD

it seems like its been upgraded from last year...higher hz and better colour. is this ok deal? my gpu cant run games beyond 1080p

>>107602362
Since fall this year we've had multiple posters trying to scam people into buying the dead lga1700 socket cuz am5 is too heckin expensive

he doesn't even like AMD anyway, he was crying about not getting the 5070 Ti at MSRP
>>107602362
i was shilling the 14600K for like a month before it went up in price and got out of stock
and several people unironically got very mad at me
>>107602382
good example here

>>107602151
4070 is fine, just skip this generation at this point. You'll be fine "a couple years from now", manufacturers will eventually give in and build new facilities if the AI craze turns out more resilient than the dot com bubble.
Save your money instead. You don't want to be exposed to the shitstorm when the cult collapses and takes the entire tech industry with it.

For the record 9070 XT was always the card I wanted and I would still buy it over 5070 ti for msrp which it's basically at now. It's just that I missed that price at launch day because they had literally 0 cards online available in Canada on launch day so I would have bought 5070 ti for msrp if I could have got that. In the end I got neither and just bought the cheapest best thing I could which was my asus prime. I have a car now and will drive myself to memory express in Edmonton for UDNA 2 to buy the flagship for 4k gayming 5 years from now.

>>107602396
Fuuuuck.
That was a 50% off price. And with my employee discount I could have gotten it for much less.
AAAAAAAAAAAA

the 9070XT is trash and no one should buy it. it sucks. just get a 5060 16gb. yeah it slower but if you count the time your pc works as a performance matric it's going to win after a few months.

You can't use any nvidia gpu for workstation now because the driver will crash before it finishes the workload. Only option now is Radeon AI Pro R9700 on Linux with ROCM

New day new more fearmongering drops just dropped
Are you locked in for non stop fearmongernig click baits for the next 5 years?

>>107602585
the fearmongs were right the last 10 years though

does the radeon 9070 play nice with physx games ? both 32gbit and 64bit ones, and which ryzen 7 should i get x or x3d ? and is it true that an x3d can fuck up my mobo because of it's high current draw ?

>>107602580
you mean the loud blower shits that run at 85c in atx cases?

>>107602528
thanks. bought cl30

>>107602595
>32bit
you'll need to use an nvidia card to accelerate physx for those older games. even a 1050ti or 750ti will be enough for that use case
64bit physx games don't really exist since its integrated into game engines, gpu accelerated and essentially vendor agnostic

>>107602599
you mean the reliable coolers that work 24/7 under extreme load for years with huge contracts and a reliable distribution to many data centers? for nvidia directly?

BUY NOW DON'T WAIT

>>107602595
the games work on old hardware and new hardware you just cant enable physx. some games can have the physx run on cpu but its still ass 1% lows.

ryzen 7 x3d for games
5700x3d for am4 and 7800x3d or 9800x3d for am5
>x3d can fuck up my mobo because of it's high current draw
its the opposite. x3d draws little current and burnt 3ds mostly happen on asrock am5 boards due to some unknown issue

their coolers still have to work 24/7. they don't sit idle. those are not passive coolers.

moisture and condensation is a big problem. got a notebook from work. never took it home. i only ever left it in my car. they usually break after two years for me for some reason.

Use SSD as scratch as minimize spin up and random writes to your HDD
They will last a long time in a well ventilated and (if smart) reduces vibration setup

The #1 killer of hard drives are head parking and vibration
Temps come second, Google has done an extensive study on this

Modern case design is so clinically retarded. Cables for drivers are meant to be installed in PARALLEL and not with them all over the place, which requires 2x more cables. PSU shrouds are the dumbest scrap ever. Not to mention how cramped and time consuming they make building and maintenance.
