That was my logic, and it's why I bought a 5080.
Price is rough. But, my last card was a 1080Ti which cost £720. My 5080 cost £900.
By inflation, that £720 card would cost £970 today.

oh yeah chinkshit is all the same to me
tbf it is budget chinkshit, anyone who buys that should be prepared for the fan to maybe be shit and have to swap it for another. I have random 120 fans just lying around and i assume most other people do as well, so swapping the fan should be trivial for most users.. Same thing applies to buying budget cases with included fans, there's a good chance at least one will be whiny or rattle so prepare to throw that fan in the garbage.

If you need the bundled fan to be rock solid for sure on a cooler buy a noctua or something...

>>107748612
Nope, ventus uses an extreme cost down cooler that's made to run near max rpms just to keep it from throttling. The next step up, 5090 gaming trio, runs significantly cooler/quieter and is infinitely closer to a suprim than a ventus

I'm having to "downsize" from an oled TV + IPS UW monitor to just a monitor in a few months
Not sure what the best way to go might be, considering most of what I do is gaming on pc and console. Any ideas?

Ultrawide is nice for a couple of games and multitasking, but I'm missing out on 30% of the screen when playing on console, which might end up being most of the time considering how fucked up Pc prices are

A 32" 4k monitor might solve the multitasking issue, but for sure will miss an UW. I guess I can always grab a second very cheap monitor

On top of that, is OLED worth it for PC usage? I love my tv but I browse and play shit like XIV so much that burn in might be inevitable. And I don't even know how well it works for retro shit and filters and such.

>>107748673
False, CPUs can safely handle higher voltages at idle/low loads (lower current fed to the cores).
There's a reason why Raptor Lake CPUs deployed in servers and workstations degraded faster.

They're very good fans for radiators, but they will run loud past 800~1000 RPM.

the ones dying at idle probably were leftovers from the bad batch oxidizing

>>107748655
My 13700k is in my server PC and it's been fantastic. It was on the "bad" microcode for 6 months, still going strong. It was in my main PC for like 3 years, server for about a year. Used every day, just don't worry about it.

>>107748687
It's called "Vmin shift", friendo. It happened from too much voltage at idle and light workloads.

>>107748703
i just need some case fans. one of the fans that came with my case died so i might as well replace them.

>>107748673
not exactly idle (0.8v vid P-state), but they were dying from heavy 1T loads that don't pull much current but pushes the preferred core to 1.6v vid and eventual destruction

if my 14900k dies ill put in my g6900 and use it to order a 12900k off ebay

>>107748706
>bad batch oxidizing
Limited to 13th-gen CPU batches.

>>107748708
Vmin shift occurred in elevated temperature conditions, not just high voltages.
Not idle/low loads.
You still haven't suggested a budget AM4 build to the guy who asked for a $600 PC build.

>>107748707
>It was on the "bad" microcode for 6 months, still going strong
you were probably saved by the motherboard doing some sneaky undervolting on the old BIOS
they don't do that anymore, multicore scores have gone down after the microcode fixes, but that was always intel spec (PL1=PL2=253 W, AC LL = VRM LL)
>>107748725

interesting

>>107748670
go ahead and get it then. you might want to set aside two 120mm and one 80mm fans plus zipties for a deshrouding mod if the noise really gets to you, though not sure how salvageable the stock cooler is since its a combination of lack of heatpipes and underwhelming fans that makes it run so noisily

That's what I was thinking, was aiming to undervolt too.

I actually told the OP that posts similar parts template to remove i7s and i9 Raptor Lake CPUs because the OP should only recommend parts that are safe for retards.
And you still haven't suggested a more affordable AM4 build to the guy who asked for a $600 PC build.

If you don't already have a 4K OLED, get it.

I have an RTX 5090 and 128 GB of RAM.

>>107748670
It doesn't matter how big the cooler is on a 5090 because if you want to run it safely without the risk of the connector burning, you will need to limit the power and/or undervolt it as well. A stock 5090 can pull up to 575W at max load, that leaves a very tiny margin for the 9A rated pins (at max load, under ideal conditions that don't exist, each pin will have 8A going through it). 5090 and its 32GB of VRAM are overkill for gaming, but despite that, there are some games it can't max at 1080p 60FPS, you're going to have to use upscaling anyway, so just get a 5070Ti or 9070 XT (without 12VHPWR).
>>107748781
I agree, but current gen mid-range cards (5060Ti 16GB, 5070, 9060XT 16GB, 9070, etc.) can achieve decent framerates at 4K in even heavy games with upscaling with practically no noticeable loss in image quality, sometimes improving it due to inferior TAA/TSR methods. 5080 and 5090 buyers are just scamming themselves--at least one could understand a 5090 for "productivity" or AI.

>SAARS THE OC VERSION IS THE BLOODY BANCHU SAAR
Holy fuck, kill yourself. OC cards are always better, the only reason to avoid them is if they cost significantly more than a stock version and you're on a budget.

>>107748861
What are they then great animu girl poster?

>>107748843
do current OC cards even differ that much these days? I know back in the rtx30 days that the strix 3080 OC came with a stock 370W PL while the non-oc strix 3080 had a stock 320W PL but both were equally unlockable to 450W.

i hate how aftermarket gpus look. i only buy the reference models.

asus proart is aftermarket and mogs every reference design currently

I am struggling to diagnose why my new GPU is misbehaving after trying many fixes. May I please get some assistance? For reference:
>Went from a 7900XT to a 9070XT
>7900X CPU
>On an 850W ATX3.0-compliant PSU
I'm powering it just like I did with the other GPU; two separate PSU cables for each of the 8-pin sockets (instead of using a pigtail) for smoother draw/transients. My issue is a bizarre and somewhat unpredictable black screen and eventual boot loop (which resolves eventually). It may crash at desktop, or when I try to load a game, etc, but it seems inescapable. I thought it could be my Displayport cable, so I tried a brand new HDMI cable I had laying around just in case, but the same shit persists. Why might this be happening? What can I do? Think it's a dud? This is such bizarre behavior from what is supposed to be a brand new card.

>>107748891
>proart

>>107748900
don't have one. hate the faggot lights and designs and i just will never buy them.

I always deshroud GPUs because the coolers are never good enough as is - they just look like fin stacks once I've taken their virginity

>>107748906
Did you reinstall the OS or DDU'd your old GPU drivers before reinstalling it?

>>107748906
did you ddu after taking out the old gpu?
>boot loop
where, on windows or the bios screen?
sounds like ram issues to me

You're just poor and never actually owned one. This was actually cheaper than the stock version at the time. Guess what, it's the best GPU I've ever owned.

>>107748906
>It may crash at desktop
Then it's likely not your GPU and PSU configuration. A decent 850W PSU should be fine powering that system. If it's crashing randomly, even at idle, it could be another component or a software/driver issue (likely). What's your OS? Did you DDU and install drivers offline with paused driver updates?

try temporarily turning off your ram expo settings and seeing if the issue persists

Maybe turning myself into a PC will end up being cheaper...

>>107748922
Completely DDUd, cleared shader cache, everything.
>>107748926
Fully DDUd (into shutdown), then put my new GPU in. Reinstalled drivers.
>where, on windows or the bios screen?
It does it when posting. If I go into desktop, it may or may not black screen and go back to BIOS. RAM worked perfectly fine in my old config, so I don't think that's the case unless Ryzen Master (which I also uninstalled and reinstalled) pulled some weird shit specifically with my RAM. The UI is different with the new one, so I don't know, but I'd only have hit EXPO if so.
>>107748943
>What's your OS?
Win 10
>Did you DDU and install drivers offline with paused driver updates?
I did DDU into shutdown, but I didn't pause driver updates or do it offline. Should I just redo the DDU-driver process as you've described? I can just pull out my ethernet cable if that'll suffice.

this software is known for fucking up stuff for no reason
try to manually reset everything to default ,both on os and bios and try again
also you better try some live cd/rescue cd/something outside your current os install to test stuff too
right now at the very least i would memtest asap to get that chance out of the way

Yes, you should. Pause driver updates, download GPU driver installer, disconnect from internet, run DDU, when system restarts run the GPU driver installer, when it's totally complete reconnect. If that doesn't work, you might have do some more testing.
