Naturally. USA will be around for quite some time so don't expect any "bubble pops" this decade. AI is here to stay. The real issue will be time it takes the memory cartel to pull the finger out of its ass, stop hoarding trillions of USA cash and start building more fabs. Datacenters won't stock themselves and the current production is simply not up to the task.

I have 0 pol posts throughout my entire 4chan history, I mostly post on /a/ occasionally in /pcbg/.
The cause of the current shitshow is USA treating AI as an arms race and thus allocating sufficient funds towards it support, how it happened is mostly irrelevant, what matters is results. AI "bubble" has effectively unlimited money thanks to the printer and won't go down, period. This means that 500+ datacenters per year for the next 5 years is happening.
Current production capacity of the memory cartel - the only 3 companies on the planet earth who actually make memory wafers Samsung/Hynix/Micron will not be enough to fulfill that task on time. More so over the last 3 years they have been actively cutting down NAND production and closing multiple fabs, even though the datacenter buildup has started in 2019 and went int overdrive in 2023. This indicates clear collusion and the goal is to nickel and dime USA's wallet by increasing the price per wafer to the maximum possible level during the period of exponential increase in demand. It is working and they are getting away with it.
We, the consumer became the collateral victims of this scheme. The only thing left is to wait it out until the cartel makes all the money in the world twice or somebody in the USA doesn't get their paycheck and gooks get into legal throuble.
Sit tight, pray to chinks and if you can still buy shit at mostly reasonable price, do it now. It will get worse and it will stay worse for at least 2 years.

Due to the last anon's recommendation, I have one final question.

Is the Meshify 3 XL and the Meshify 3 XL RGB Ambience Pro the same case but one just has the fancy lights?

Also do both of these come with case fans installed?

>Is the Meshify 3 XL and the Meshify 3 XL RGB Ambience Pro the same case but one just has the fancy lights?
Same case, the Ambience Pro has the light strips and a fan controller bundled.

Gonna do this once more. I have settled on the components, just haven't decided on the case/tower.
I would prefer two usb ports for the front, and for it to have good air flow.

Processor CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D Eight Core CPU
Processor Cooling: PCS Frostflow 200 Series High Performance CPU Cooler (250W TDP)
Motherboard: GIGABYTE X870E AORUS ELITE WIFI7
RAM: 64GB CORSAIR VENGEANCE RGB DDR5 6000MHz CL30
GPU: 32GB PALIT GEFORCE RTX 5090 GAMEROCK
M.2 SSD Drives: 2TB Samsung 990 PRO m.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe (7450MB/R, 6900MB/W)
Storage: 6TB SEAGATE IRONWOLF PRO 3.5 7200 RPM 256mb CACHE
PSU: FSP HYDRO PTM PRO 1650W ATX 3.1 & PCIe 5.1 MODULAR 80 PLUS PLATINUM
EXTRA CASE FANS: 5 x 120mm THERMALTAKE TOUGHFAN 12

The PSU is admittedly overkill but I read that it was better for 5090 RTX cards and slightly reduces the melting risks. Anyway, recommend some towers/cases, and I am using PCSpecialist so I'll only use the ones they are offering.

>>107753711

And while I can probably still make it work, with whats going on right now, I might not have another chance, my cpu is atleast 5 years old now and if it croaks in a year im gigafucked, its not showing signs yet but knowing my luck itll die just as everything becomes either unaffordable or straight up unavailable

Tech illiterate here. I'm getting a 5070 ti and I'm having trouble getting around the whole connector thing. So the standard now is the 12V-2x6 if I understand correctly, so I should get a 3.1 PSU to avoid melting but in some cases it seems that it would be safer to buy something like https://www.corsair.com/us/en/p/pc-components-accessories/cp-8920284/600w-pcie-5-0-12v-2x6-type-4-psu-power-cable-cp-8920284 instead. I don't know if that would be the case for me since I'm not playing at 4k and I'm pairing it with a 5800X and a 750 W PSU.

I mean the 5070 Ti doesn't pull too much power for the cable to melt. You're fine don't think too much about it. Just fully seat it and don't bend it. In any case, nothing will happen.

That 2x 8-pin to 12V-2x6 connector isn't a silver bullet, according to this user >>107750889
Make sure the cable has enough straight clearance (30mm minimum) before you bend it sideways on the PSU side.
You shouldn't have to worry to much since you're getting a 5070 Ti, not a 5090.

The 5070ti only draws like 350W max and there will most likely be an adapter cable in the box which will have 3x8pin connectors, no need to buy a new PSU.
>>
>>107754175
>5070 Ti 350W max
Can't this thing be undervolted so it draws only like 250W?

>>107754186
You can power limit to whatever you want with the correct tool. You will lose performance tho. Idk about 250 W, silicon lottery, blah blah

Any thoughts? I am pretty confident about it.

>>107754186
of course it can be undervolted, I'm saying the maximum isn't a problem for the new shit connector, it gets bad north of 500W

Unless you're trying to push like 4K@100fps it's hardly going to try to ever pull more than 250W at stock in anything else

Can you guys tell me how to pick a good monitor? I'm mostly going to be playing at 1440p so I checked out the KTC and ASUS monitors in the OP but they seem a bit expensive.

it is. also there are a million online reviews you could use to learn about monitors so you can make up you own mind, after all only a fool takes advice from the /pcbg/ OP without fact-checking it.
>>
>>107754261
If you have a 1080p 120+ Hz monitor just keep that. You don't need more than 1080p. If you don't have a monitor yet, just buy whatever cheap 1440p monitor you find. VA or IPS doesn't matter nothing matters.

>>107754768
That power supply is definitely overspecced for a 5500 and 9060xt build. So unless you plan to upgrade the pc in the future a 650 watter should be enough.

Also don't get a 45 dollar CPU cooler for a Ryzen 5 5500. Use the stock cooler for it. Or on ebay you can get a brand new tray version of Ryzen 5 5600. Then get a cheap CPU cooler like the Artic Alpine 23 (slightly better than the stock cooler) and you'd have a good CPU upgrade.

Drop the CPU cooler and the Ryzen 5 5500. And instead buy a brand new Ryzen 5 5600 on ebay for $120 (it's a tray cooler so no CPU cooler included) then buy Arctic Alpine 23 B stock on ebay from Arctic's official store for $7.80. This is a big CPU upgrade for less than 3 dollars more.

>Ram
Instead of getting a 4x4gb kit of 2133mhz ram. You can on amazon buy GeiL Evo Spear 16gb kit that's 2x8gb kit which leaves you upgrade room to 32gb in the future. AND it's 3000mhz so it's much faster as well.

>SSD
For $135 you can get a WD SN7100 which is a much better NVME driver over that QLC Samsung SATA drive

>PSU
1000W PSU for a 5500 and 9060xt build is overkill. Only buy the 1000W PSU if you know that in future you will upgrade to like a 5080 or 5090 class GPU. Get either an MSI MAG 650GLS for $80 or a Rosewill VMG 750W for $76.

>Case
Not best value case. But if it's the cheapest case you think looks cool get it. But you can save like 40 bucks by going for a cheaper but similar looking case.
>>
>>107754936
>Rosewill
It's a Newegg house brand just like Powerspec is Micro Center's house brand. And just like most PSU brands not named Seasonic, FSP or Super Flower they don't make their PSU's. Just like Corsair doesn't make their PSU's but rather source from like 6 different PSU OEM's. The Rosewill VMG PSU's are actually rated quite well on the PSU tier list.
>Adata
Since when did Adata become an "non proper brand". They are one of the most well known SSD makers out there.
>GEIL
Your Corsair's and G.Skill's don't make the memory chips. Only Samsung, Micron or SK.Hynix does. And those GEIL sticks use one of those brands.
>>
>>107754768
Don't listen to the fags. 1000w has overhead but who cares for $150. It will last you 10 years. You buy for your needs 10 years from now. There's a nice Seasonic on Woot for $150 as well.
>>
>>107754954
I find it most annoying people who don't recognize PSU brands. Like I still remember when people shat on the Walmart PC for having a Great Wall PSU. Even though a lot of those people probably had a Corsair CX series PSU that was also made.... Great Wall.

Honestly most shocking is how even big Youtubers like Linus (who has a fucking PSU review channel) don't recognize brands like High Power.......

What games would that improved rig not be able to play at high? Just trying to see if it is worth more to wait for the steam machine.
>>
>>107755065
Steam machine is going to be great. Not because the hardware will be the best ever, but because the OS is going to be finely tuned exactly for that specific hardware. From what I have seen of the Steam Deck, it has only improved, just look at how far Linux game compatibility as a whole has advanced in only the past year.
>>
>>107755065
i dont think that rig plays any modern games at high
>>
>>107755065
Steam Machine's GPU for example is worse than an RX 7600. That 9060xt is 36% faster than an RX 7600. So probably around 50% faster than the Steam Machine's GPU.

What resolution is your monitor? 1080p? If so, every single game at good frame rates.
>>
>>107755098
I was purely asking from a hardware perspective. I know that Valve opens up Linux for most people but being competitive in the pc market is about knowing and fine-tuning your specs for specialized use-cases. If it can't compete with a pre-built or self built pc why would I invest into a mini pc that runs containered arch Linux when I can just install arch on my pc that is also extendable in the future. It would make more sense if Valve would adopt a Framework kind of approach to their hardware.

Is there any chance that Intel will launch Bartlett Lake soon? Or are the rumours fake? I have a 3090 but only a 12400f and the reason why I haven't upgraded is because I have been waitfagging for Bartlett Lake for over a year. It already caused me to miss out upgrading my slow JDEC speed DDR5.

I mean it's not really embedded isn't it. And the right now we they have launched the Core 7 251E. And they recently rebranded basically the 12400 as the Core 5 120 for regular LGA 1700. So that gives me hope that we will get Bartlett Lake seperately as well.
>>
>>107755220
Not if you're going to use it normally and responsibly, and use a good PSU/cable. If it acts fucky, you can see if they can exchange it for you within 30d (though idk how swaps work with potentially low inventory), and they'll have years of warranty down the line regardless.
>>
>>107755220
I mean unless you had the option to have protection beyond the 3 years your GPU already has warranty for. And the protection for like say 5 years isn't a completely ridicilous price.

If you are really worried you can just call Micro Center and see if they can add the protection plan afterwards. I'm sure they will likely be able to do that.

How do my GPU (9070 XT) temps seem and wattage seem? Hotspot delta okay? I left HWInfo on for around an hour while I played Hogwarts Legacy (cranked, native 2160p, no RT). I started the testing during load-in, and restarted the game a few times as I tested various settings. So, the minimums aren't accurate since they didn't capture idle. FPS/etc shouldn't matter either for the same reason; I'm just looking at my thermal and watt/voltage here.
>>107755363

>is low ppi woled fine for text
absolutely not and do not believe any lies you are told online
buy and see your yourself and return it if it's sucks
You cannot trust anyone
They are all coping with their choices you will find people today saying QD-OLED has perfectly fine text readability and no fringing or that it's not noticeable at all, completely delusional beings.
We'll see what CES has to offer with the 5K2K monitors
>>
>>107755371
Delta is alright, anything 25° or below is fine and 20° is great, would start worrying at >30°. Memory's a bit hot but I guess that's normal if it's hynix.
>>
>>107755371
Memory is bit too hot. Other than that not really too bad. But the memory isn't that hot yet that you would be afraid of it dying or it thermal throttling your PC. I guess you can always ramp up your fans or something.

What model 9070xt if I may ask?
>>
>>107755224
> He install the OS Probably to the 4tb Samsung 9100 pro
What a waste! The OS can't make any use of the speed, it reads many small files on startup and then writes/reads only few small files during uptime. There will be no noticeable difference to a OS on a PCIe 4.0 drive. A PCIe 5.0 drive should be used for large file operations like working with media data. The OS should be installed on a much smaller dedicated drive or partition of it's own.
>>
>>107755371
don't worry AMD told everyone 95C is not hot
>>
>>107755257
Rather the new normal.
>>
>>107755436
Hynix memory just runs that hot, Samsung would be sitting somewhere between average and hotspot.
>>
>>107755328

Yes, yes, yes, we know the 9800X3D has 8 cores/ 16 threads.

Nice, appreciate the feedback. I guess I'm good with it at sub-20C hotspot then. As for memory, should I back off a bit on my VRAM tunings here:
>>107753095
...or not worth nitpicking in your opinion? I'm still at stock fan curve too, so maybe I can mess with that a little.
>What model 9070xt if I may ask?
Asrock 9070 XT Challenger. They didn't advertise it much for some reason, but one of the things I really liked is that they're using PTM7950 on the die. Gives me a little peace of mind despite being a more inexpensive 9070 XT model.
>>107755449
For which component (or is this a meme?)
>>107755464
So it's rated to endure sitting at this kind of temp (assuming my card is running Hynix memory)? I couldn't find anything on their product page about this. Just trying to learn.
>>
>>107754768
If you want a GPU that's probably 30% slower, you could get the framework AI max 385 32gb mainboard for $800.
https://frame.work/products/framework-desktop-mainboard-amd-ryzen-ai-max-300-series?v=FRAFMK0002
But no fsr 4, soldered ram, 1 year warranty, hard to add a GPU to it (but it's still worth putting in a 5090 if you want 4k, but the pcie 4x slot needs some sort of adapter).
You also need the psu, ssd, case, and 120mm fan.
I would get a cheaper PSU, and a better NVME, smaller case (matx, itx if it's cheap and fits an ATX psu?, the framework desktop case is +$300).
I would find a $30~ 650watt PSU from like facebook marketplace (check the PSU with cybenetics, and maybe a review that tears down the internals).
And sometimes noctua a12 / bequiet pure wings tend to sell for like $5.
Might as well also get a PC case as well on facebook (but you are probably going to be missing screws or the USB hub will be 2.0 which is OLD, but you could probably buy a usb 3 hub that fits into the CD slot in aliexpress if you ask /csg/).
>>
>>107755484
Not sure, I meant on the RX 9000 series specifically. They completely randomly come with either Samsung or Hynix, I don't think Micron even produces GDDR anymore.

it does matter but there's a thing called diminishing returns. subtimings matter more, trfc+trefi affect latency a crap ton.
>>
>>107755506
>or not worth nitpicking in your opinion?
Those look like normal settings for a 9070xt, though the increase in max frequency offset could cause issues in certain games (BF6 for example tends to cause a DX error if the GPU boosts above roughly 3200mhz)
>So it's rated to endure sitting at this kind of temp
It's rated for 105° if I recall correctly. But lowering the memory clock a little could be worth it imo, if that positively affects the temperature.
>I couldn't find anything on their product page about this
GPUZ will tell you what kind of memory the card has, the manufacturers just use whatever they can get and won't tell you.
>>
>>107755549
If you have iGP, make sure it's enabled in BIOS and connect your second monitor to that
