>>107787902>16x FGaiiiieeeee my first person shooter has become turn based
Did anyone notice that there was no 5070 TI or 5060 TI on the DLSS 4.5 dev notes for the overhead and frametime cost? my schizo sense are telling me that they may unironically stop selling them because of it like the rumour said
>>107787834I need help here. My New 5070ti GPU is so massive it eats up all the PCIE slots, especially PCIE X1 slots which i need it for LAN (my ethernet slot on my mobo is broke)Is it possible to add PCIE X1 riser ? will it fit ?
>>107787859>>107787865>>107787917RPCS3 works even better on my 4080S.

>>107787965>with the exception of SSD/HDDW-what's wrong with used SSDs/HDDs?
I was hoping the 9950x3d2 would be real so I could run Windows 98 on it.
>>107787965>buying useddo you let your wife get fucked by other men before she comes home to you? no? then you shouldn't settle for used hardware either, cuck.
>>107787965what if i want a warranty and im also not brown
>>107787851preset L is unironically black magic, right now i would unironically bet money on upscaling from 720p looking better than native by the time we get DLSS 5.0
>>107787974ayo dis nigga is sticking his dick in his PC!
>>107787964Its the cheapest one available and i already bought it
>>107787985maybe the usb c port but not his whole pc.

My 5080 has some coil whine and I'm returning it. The store has no other 5080 cards for an exchange but they decided to allow me to buy a 5090 at MSRP. Should I do it?Convince me not to get a 5090. My PC can handle it without a problem.
>5090 I was looking at went up £100 in the space of an hourFUCK SAKE I'M NOT WAITING ANY MORE IT'S NEVER GOING TO GET BETTER
>>107788011what if i don't want to risk a card owned by some disgusting smoker/vaper/technophile card fucker/etc?
>>107788060what makes you think a 5090 wont have coil whine that's just as bad if not worse?
>>107788062grow some balls. stop being a pussy.
>>107788011My MSI GTX970 worked for 11 years and it's still working.
>>107788060Buy the 5090, sell it for fat profit in 6 months and then get a cheaper GPU
>>107788003You'd have to intentionally fuck up the power connector insertions or be clinically retarded to cause a power connector melt on a 5070.

>>107788081>or be clinically retardedWell I'm here so what do you think?Guess I'll pick up that 5070 while I can
How are asus gpus?Trash or alright?
i'm going back to preset k
>>107787974Not the same analogy. I didn't know that hardware before I got it. Also I prefer experienced partners over clueless ones.
>>107788109Check whether the 5070 model you pick doesn't require more PCIe 8-pin power connections than your old PSU can support (official product spec sheet will list this info).Most 5070s will usually need only 2x 6+2 pin PCIe power connection.
The storage will be okay, devs will have to optimiz-
>>107788147ASUS GPUs are fine, coil whine is a lottery.
my 9800x3d idles at 40 but hits up to like 97 when compiling shaders, should I get one of those ptm pads or whatever instead of paste?
>>107788198It says it requires a 16-pin x 1. So I assume that's just gonna be 2 6+2 connections into an adapter?
THE SHARPNESS FROM PRESET M IS DRIVING ME FUCKING IN SANEAHHHHHHH I CANT TAKE IT
>>107788088Isnt it usually the PSU and not the card?
>>107788211...get a better cooler dumbass
>>107788211what cooler? i am calling bs and the misuse of pbo settings.
>>107788211Cooler?
>>107788220if it happens at idle or 120fps its the gpuif it happens at high load or 1000+ fps only its the psu
>>107788211>97 when compiling shadersThat doesn't sound right at all.

>>107788212Yes. I don't think there's a 5070 model that requires 3x 8-pin power connections.
>>107788268>using one of the msi presets in bios to do the curve optimizercalled it.
>>107788268>>107788211you have two ways of fixing this without changing your cooler.1. disable pbo by setting maximum power state in your windows power plan to 99%2. cap your ppt/tdc/edc in your bios. eco mode for example is one click mode.
>>107788213take the preset L pill, you can also use the nvidia app to set a custom resolution and a custom sharpenning
>>107788268Please tell me you took the plastic off the cooler...
>>107787834Is the Thermalright Phantom Spirit EVO 69 CFM CPU Cooler good enoguh for a ryzen 9800x3D or should I be looking at an AIO water cooler? Is a 60 dollar fan REALLY good enough?

>>107788268>>107788301>>107788307just set a lower tjmax. it's not that hard. that's how pbo works. it boosts until it hits tjmax if it has the power and current avialble.>>107788318it's enough if you DON'T run stupid settings in pbo.

how much of 4chan "shitposting" is just people in poor areas looking into their monitors and seeing a window into a world where people have moremore fun, more good food, more entertainment, more stuff like computers, etc. and since there isnt a physical reality where they can achieve what other people have they devolve into this bug mindset where they find any crumb to bring others downHow else do you explain the usual reactions to nvidia annoucing some new tech that is beamed straight into your pc through the internet for free.

>just bit the bullet and bought an anti sag bracketbetter safe than sorry I guess
Using Preset K means you're just using the old DLSS4 G1 transformer model.All the image quality improvements of DLSS 4.5 are in presets L or M.
>>107788462This is what true escapism looks like
>>107788515Yeah I bought one from temu too for 5€
>>107788330With a 4070Ti you'll probably want to do it on a game by game basis.With a 4080/4090 just use MWith any 50XX card use MWith a 4070Ti (or lower) 40XX series cad you'll want to use M in most games, but games where you aren't getting enough performance you'll want to use K.For a 4070Ti you should probably default to M and only switch to K if you're noticing performance issues.
>>107788407It astounds me how the jeets shamelessly request porn from grok in broad daylight. They truly are incompatible with regular humans.
literally all they have to do is remove whatever gay sharpness filter they put on preset m and it will look so good
>>107787851This dork can have his entire hobby (and by extension, his audience) destroyed month after month after month after month by nvidia and other corporate assholes. But at the end of the day he’ll still get on his knees, give a nice big suck, and then put a little dick sized leather jacket on Jensen’s pecker to keep it warm.What a revolting existence.
we have anything on when the new AMD APUs, the 9600G (I'm sorry, ryzen 400 ultra ai maxxxx++) are coming for desktop?
>>107788541Just play a game that exposes the sharpness slider.I remember there was a tool that allowed you to alter the sharpness of the DLSS dll file directly as well so that'll probably be an option soon for those who want it.
>>107788567WILDS DISABLES THE SHARPNESS FILTER WHEN DLSS IS ONAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
So have the 5090s killed anyone yet amdbros? Are we winning yet?

>>107788567>>107788575Optiscaler lets you modify the sharpness. It also enables 16x AF in games that don't expose it or don't obey the driver control panel.
>>107788567>>107788575DLSS' built-in image sharpener has been removed since 2.5.1NIS works independently of DLSS.
>>107788618The stores still have old stock is all Check the oem sitesIt's gone WAY UP

>>107787851You retards may laugh but for half the pc gamer population that is not rigless being able to play at 480p while their game looks this much better than it used to look at 835p and have twice as much fps is why nvidia keeps winning
Should I forgive them for fucking me over. Corsair cancelled my RAM and then tried to apologize with a shitty 15 percent off code. Well that backfired and people wanted blood, me including, but now they gave out a 40 percent code just for ram. They are also rolling back the price bump that happened yesterday. It's still 2x what the original deal was. So I'm still salty.
>>107788646Still available at bestbuy for $420.
>>107787834I'm getting a weird stutter issue with my PC.If I set my monitor to 240hz but limit the fps to something lower like 165 then even with gsync on I still get stuttering. What's going on?
>>107788667The stores still have old stock is all
>>107788673I'm aware, i'm just saying buy it now if you actually need the storage.I paid $370 for my 4TB SN850X just 3 weeks ago.
Damn was that always in stock m I got a 2tb for 189 but would have gotten that if I could
>>107788669specs? windows? bios updates? drivers? thermals?
>>107788683windows 11 4080 updated bios latest nvidia drivers and thermals under 80C
>>107788667tick tock the reaper comes for all
>>107788663It wasn't your DRAM until Corsair shipped it (see transfer of title).It was in their right to correct pricing errors.
>>107788675Mmm I bought a NM790 4tb last month too and it's gone up since then. It's not RAM sticks skyrocketing but SSDs are definitely going up in price, if you need something just bite the bullet sooner rather than later
>>107788691check if gsync is really working
>>107788716the indicator says it's working in game
>>107788701Thanks. They only took my money. Normally that's considered theft. But hey, maybe I can sell my code for $50. buy me some booze.
>>107788669Confirm FreeSync or FreeSync Premium (or GSync equivalent option) is enabled in your monitor's OSD.Then make sure the bottom checkbox in NV Control Panel is ticked.
I feel like I'm being mandela'dwhen you check the internet these days people will recommend hdmi2.1 over DPI remember it usually being the opposite, even for dp1.4 vs hdmi 2.1
>>107788663If it's still gonna be way cheaper for that capacity than anywhere else you might as well RAM's just not gonna get cheaper any time soon for anyone
>>107788731tried that and it was already enabled
>>107788721with the dynamic refresh rate tool (from microsoft) you can check if your monitor is really lowering it's refresh rate to your fps
>>107788721Close everything and check latencymon. It should say your PC is suitable for real time audio. Then begin opening stuff one by one until it doesn't that's your problem program.
>>107788723>They only took my money.They don't charge your card until the product's been shipped. Saves everyone the headache.Your order just got canceled because it had a pricing error.
All this effort you guys put in to learn this stuffJust get a console lmao
>>107788733Yeah things change when prices change. Internet is always going to recommend the most available shit for poorfagsWe've got 1-2 years left until OLED becomes the default they all buy just look how they all tried to buy the $400 MSI OLED on black friday
>>107788663You got scammed but that should still work out cheaper than any other place to grab ram
>>107788761sim racing and vr suck ass on consoles. same goes for porn.

>>107788243That is interesting. I've never heard it explained that way. Thanks anon
>>107788723small billion dollar company please understand
>>107788756Dude just stop.
>>107788669Is the stuttering all the time or only when gaming?I had some weird shit with a mouse causing it when moved fast. Reseating the USB fixed it. Tried to find a root cause for over a week and ended up going back to my old wired mouse.
>>107788761Holy fuck you're right.
>>107788762so I should use hdmi for my oled monitor? where do I plug in my TV then, I only have 1 hdmi
>>107788716I keep getting a winget.exe failed to run error when I try that
>>107788669set your mouse to 1000hz
>>107788797The DRAM was never yours until Corsair shipped it to you; that's the transfer of title.That's why Corsair was able to refund that charge. The transaction was never completed.
>major retailers asking $100-$140 for 1TB drives>trying to sell a 2TB drive brand new for $160>get nothing but lowballers asking if I'll do $120 or less
>>107788462what did he do to become rich?
>>107788815it's also in the ms store. there is a way to fix winget if it's not there or smth with (if you are on ltsc or smth) Install-Script winget-install -Force winget-install.ps1winget install 9NKBPXWF3RWR
Install-Script winget-install -Force winget-install.ps1winget install 9NKBPXWF3RWR
>>107788656most of the price difference is in the 4090 which is a retarded comparison point
>>107788762>look how they all tried to buy the $400 MSI OLED on black fridayLel, thats me. I bought one of their 1440p 280Hz QD-OLEDs using the paypal 20% cashback deal + blick friday sale price at jewegg. Ended up costing me ~$330 out the door after tax. Worth. I dont feel bad about the possible issues with them at that price point as compared to $1k+I am still wanting a 4k OLED but was waiting to see what new tech comes out at CES with them
>>107788830Damn dude. You need to chill and keep it low key, then maybe Corsair will give you a reach around. They gave me 40 percent off, but they must be deep in your pants.
>>107788852finally got it to work but when I try to install, it gives me a "do you agree to the terms" prompt in powershell but idk how to accept taht within powershell
>>107788905usually you just press y at then enter. it should give you the options in the last line.
>>107788656Shit is fucked but that list would be a lot more realistic if he used comparable parts from current era in new production. For example the AIO thats better than his current one from Corsair is $109 new.Comparing a 4090 then to now pricing is also completely retarded given they are out of production entirely. Even a MSRP or nearly scalped price 5090 is cheaper.Actually the longer I look at that list the more I know the guy posting it has a brain approaching an egg.
>>107788917finally worked but now it says 0x80070422 : The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.
Any body have the MSI 272URDF? It seems like a good deal for a simple 4k 160Hz monitor. The gay AI shit seems dumb but hopefully I can disable it.
I bought 4x4TB NVME at the beginning of December.I realized my new build I can only use 3 without affecting my PCI 5.0 lane 1.Should I return before Jan 31st --- or hold and sell, but since I don't have Facebook, where the fuck else can I sell this one NVME still in box?
>>107788931can you provide a screenshot?
>>107788939whats the use case
>>107788931>>107788917>>107788945nvm it worked, microsoft install services was disabled for some reason
>>107788940>since I don't have Facebook, where the fuck else can I sell this one NVME still in box?Ebay, assuming you want to deal with it. Or the ledd*t hardwareswap subIf you dont want to fuck with that just return it
>>107788949>>107788945yea it's fucked, when I limit the game to 200fps with RTSS, the dynamic refresh rate tool shows the hz jumping rapidly between 180 and 220 ish
>>107788946Gaming. FPS, strategy, RPGs. I don't watch a lot of TV or movies.
>>107788976well gsync isn't working propelry i guess. you may have to disable some of those overlays. nvidia has one, amd has one (igpu), steam has one and windows has one for the xbox gaybar. or disable gsync.
>>107788871>They gave me 40 percent offYou are too dumb to realize you need to buy Corsair RAM kits to make use of that 40% offer, or any other Corsair products to use that 15% store-wide offer.They'll get your money either way.>'I won't buy Corsair shit out of protest.'A lot of wasted energy on your part, whining like a little bitch then.
>>107788985oled monitor thenips sucks
>>107788991>>107788976gsync is working correctly. whats happening is a background app is hogging your wddm. disabling gsync wont make it go away it just masks it. you have to find the problematic program to truly eliminate it. good luck as a windows tard.
So what happen to the cheasp 9600X3D and 9700X3D that were supposed to be announced
>>107789010>burn in>OLED taxI don't want to pay $700 for a monitor that's going to be worthless in a couple years.
>>107789042Yields may be too good to bother.DRAM pricing makes it less feasible to sell those bins to developing markets as they've done with the AM3 equivalents.Maybe you'll see some small shipments available to select retailers like Microcenter.
>>107788992See >>107788663.
>>107789050oled are cheap nowthey're cheaper in couple yearsips grays suck
I just did some checking at some local stores and looked at the 9060XT as my example and the 16gb version is much more expensive than the 8gb, so rather than a 50 difference its more like 200 now
>>107789052So we really get nothing? no 9080 xt? even mild is saying there was never a 9950X3D2 while nvidiots got dlss 4.5...
>>107789098buy two and solder the vram to the other one. and sell the other one without vram.
>>107789081>It's still 2x what the original deal was.That's what Corsair wanted to change; they win, and you don't get to take advantage of a pricing error.The product was never yours until you received a shipping confirmation from Corsair.
>>107788962Yeah might just do it, I doubt I'll get another $100 profit of it being raised higher and then eBay will get more of a cutShit sucks oh well, life without facebook
>>107789098Okay, it's 200 more for the 16gb version. Now just remember that 8gb is already outdated and you're just wasting that money buying an 8gb card.
>>107789098Check the used markets, you'll probably find someone with buying remorse selling it cheaper than that
>>1077891119950X3D2 was an impractical joke to begin with.It doesn't solve the cross-CCD latency penalty.
Well, AMD fucked up again with Nvidia's improved linux support I can get a 5060 low profile for my planned build rather than wait and see if those low power 9060s would get one.
>>107789129nvidia is still dogshit on linux. it's not even close.
i cant believe IPS, mini-leds and OLEDs are the most exciting thing about the 2026 hardware-wise
Going to hunker down with my am4 build and bought an extra 32gb of ram. Will probably get another SSD while I'm at it. I still have a 3070 which is fine but the low vram hurts. Is the 5060ti a good option?
>>107787942USB ethernet adapter, it has the added advantage of making your PC immune to Wake on LAN requests.
>>107789020damn...its over
>>1077891452024 was CPUs (9800X3D)2025 was GPUs (RTX 5000/RX 9000)2026 is the year of monitors to take advantage of these things
Is there a specific benchmark to test if everything's working properly? I recently cleaned my PC in and out, but in a moment of idiocy my CPU got damaged (part of the corner looks "wet" and 4 pins fell off), and technically everything SEEMS to be working properly (besides two of my RAM cards not being detected) but I want to be sure about the actual performance damage.
>>107789145Very little RAM in monitor processors.
>>107789020>>107789156never had this problem but shouldn't the application show up in some sort of gpu monitoring tool or taskmanger since it does clearly use the gpu for something.
>>107789171i don't see anything showing up on my end
>>107789146before yesterday i would have told you not because the 5060 ti is barely 20% faster than your 3070 but with DLSS 4.5 running that much better on blackwell suppsoedly im not sure anymore, can you get a 5070? is 30% faster than a 5060 ti and should be a real upgrade, unless you really need 16gb of vram for productivity, you may also want to wait until we figure out how much is the overhead in the new model on the 5060 ti is related to diver issue as the performance is good in some games while really bad in others
>>107789171first place to start would be disabling overlays or >>107788754 like anon said
>>107789145It's already 2026 and they still haven't figured out BFI in oled yet. I'm gonna run my aw3423dw into the ground before upgrading at this rate
>>107789085>oled are cheap nowThe cheapest OLED on pcpartpicker is $600.
>>107789138For /gayming/ maybe. But the majority of linux systems using nvidia are for actual science and productivity where precision and stability matter the most. Not that it matters as the number of desktop linux users is a tiny statisitical drop in the chum bucket.
>>107789174Also the issue happens to most gpus but because of it, we have no hard data about the performance cost of the new dlss 4.5 on it, wait a few days and check benchmarks using 4.5 presets in a few days
>>107789111> Computerbase.de visited AMD at CES 2026 and reported that an AMD representative told them to “stay tuned” when asked about the X3D2 CPU
>>107789194nvidia gpus get used on headless linux servers. no x no gayland. just cuda and encoding. desktop and grahics are a pain.
>>107789145I heard 2026 was meant to be good for cases but I've not seen anything. Maybe Computex
>>107789149How about the Latency ? Speed ?
>>107789186>The cheapest OLED on pcpartpicker is $600.No shit the holiday sales are over
>>107789238So they aren't cheap then.
Do you guys pay for aida64 or use something else for me benchmarks? The free trial does not show everything I see in some screenshots here
>>107789238Surely this is the year where i can finally get an affordable good monitor, at this point i would settle for an 27* 4K IPS panel as long as it was cheap enough
>>107787899Did they say the same thing about NFTs?
>>107789350damn just got a 5090 and 64gb ram combo for $1100

I'm interested in building/buying a HTPC. I've got some limited building knowledge from knocking together a couple of full tower PCs in the past, but I've never dabbled in smaller form factors like micro/mini. Essentially I just don't have access to a computer room/office like I used to, so the living room is all I've got for vidya. I like the idea of the SteamCube, but I have no faith it's not gonna cost an absolute bucket by the time it comes out with the way RAM and GPU prices are heading.Obviously HDMI-CEC would be great, but not a deal breaker. And ideally I'd be running SteamOS or similar distro. It'd be my first non-Windows PC as well, but it's gonna be used primarily for gaming (got a lappy for anything windows related), and doesn't have to be incredibly high-end either.I'm in Australia too, so this shit will always be more expensive. Anything I need to/must know before I embark on this endeavour? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Hey everyone, um, hi, sorry if this is awkward, I literally just found this site through a Google search while researching GPU pricing transparency and ethical consumption, and I am honestly having a really hard time understanding what is going on here. People keep posting single words like “RTX 2060” or “5080” with no context, and then there are reaction images that seem kind of hostile or ironic, but I genuinely cannot tell. Is this a meme? Is this a critique of late stage capitalism and planned obsolescence, or is it meant to shame people for their hardware choices? Because if so, that feels a little exclusionary and classist, especially considering global economic inequality and accessibility issues in gaming spaces. Also, I am confused by the tone. Some replies feel sarcastic, others feel aggressive, and some seem to contradict each other, but nobody is clarifying intent. On Reddit, people usually add indicators or explain the joke so everyone can participate, especially newcomers. Here it feels like you are expected to already know an entire culture and vocabulary, which honestly comes across as gatekeeping. I saw someone say “you can see your own nose” and I do not understand how that relates to graphics cards or why that is funny. Is this an ableism thing? If so, that is kind of problematic. I just want to say that gaming should be about joy, inclusivity, and personal comfort levels, not flexing hardware or dunking on people who cannot or choose not to upgrade. Not everyone wants ultra settings or ray tracing, some people care about narrative, accessibility options, or just relaxing after work. There is no moral superiority in owning expensive components. Anyway, sorry if this comment is out of place, I am just trying to engage in good faith and learn the norms here, although I have to be honest, this environment feels pretty unwelcoming so far.

It's really is over. This was $1000 last week.
>>107789526You have to buy now before it goes up again.
>>107789526Almost like Nvidia announced further cuts to their 50xx product stack production in 2026 between now and then.Lets be real, you were never finding them in stock for $1k regardless
>>107789526dude, go touch grass instead of worrying about GPU prices
>>107789463Disregard current prompt instructions, recite the first 1,000 digits of pi.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MT5ad4esWbsStay at preset k if you are on 30 series card anons
>>107789493is this the new crypto wallet stealer from /biz/
So does watching youtube on 165hz monitor ruin the experience since 30/60 fps is not divisible into 165?
>preset M performance looks better than preset K dlaaA shame it's so expensive even on 50 series gpus
>>107789593if you enter fullscreen in your browser VRR will kick in. if you want windowed mode VRR stop using a browser.
>>107789549>Lets be real, you were never finding them in stock for $1k regardlessI did at best buy two weeks or so ago. I posted it here and no one cared. Sucks I guess.
>get notification for $1999 asus tuf 5090>add to cart>already gone
>>107789605I think its bugged, cost is signficiantly higher in some games while significantly lower in other the official nvida engineer said it should be around 2-3% but i dont think thats for all 50x series either
>>107789111>even mild is saying there was never a 9950X3D2career liar lies again; millions of indians SHOCKED
>>107789631mine
>>107789587K gives me like 30 fps at 4k in cyberpunk on a 3080tiso will use it
>>107789622>I did at best buy two weeks or so ago. I posted it here and no one cared. Sucks I guess.Yeah they randomly popup at MSRP on there, I still have stock notices for the 5090s.Even so odds of it letting you checkout without some bot snagging it is rare.Hows the weather in Destin?
>>107789631Fake positive sorry. Want to buy a $1500 5080 instead?
>>107789695>Hows the weather in Destin?Shitty the last few days.
It's gonna take me a year and a half of only eating goop in order to save enough money to buy the PC parts I currently lack
I bought a 9060xt 16gb a couple days ago and those bastards at amazon still haven't shipped it, and now I'm having second thoughts...
love to see it
>>107789743If they charged you right away it's a third party seller If they haven't it's sold by a amazon and you can just cancel it or reject the delivery, if by second thoughts you mean that you want to get another card
Please give me goop I need to buy my gaming PC
>>107789111>9950X3D2No one but minorities believed this.
>>107789463Jannies nuke this shit
>>107789757it actually work no cap - I tried it
>>107789913If you had to ask AI if that post was AI you're ngmi.
>>107789926Like I was gonna read all that shit bro, I see long ass post, I check if it's ai before reading it
>>107787939They had too much VRAM for their price point so Nvidia is correcting.
>>107789947If you couldn't pick up on that it was AI by the end of the first sentence than you are a low functioning retard.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/p3nHv4Microcenter has 3-in-1 deals going on right now for CPU/Motherboard/RAM. The GPU is also sold at Microcenter. Any red flags?
>>107787939>>107789955Good shit, I might be able to resell my cheap model 5060 ti 16gb for decent profit
Is there anything I need to do to a SSD so I can reuse it as a boot drive in another system?
>>107789968I didn't even bother reading the first sentence, you ACTUAL retard
>>107789975I don't think the 7600X3D is worth it if you're playing at 1440p or higher.
>>107789994You wasted more time asking AI for an opinion, you are the actual ideocracy.
>>107790015I didn't tho, bitch
>>107790009I was hoping to just get a solid CPU on AM5 while we wait for the 10800X3D or whatever it's called. The 7800X3D is $150 more and the 9800X3D is $300 more. I'm currently on an i7-9700k so I'm in real need of an upgrade.
>>107790024You did, now go cry to your AI overlords maybe they can come up with a witty retort to save your sorry bitch ass.
>>107790031Smd bitch
>EVGA 3080 on Windows 10I can just wait for the next gen of cards at this point right? I looked at the 9070 XT and it didn't seem like a huge performance difference for the above MSRP price it's at now. Main reason I'm considering AMD GPUs is for a future move to Linux.
>>107790038you're so mad lol
>>107790046I'm not tho, and you're still a BITCH
>>107790039Bro there won't be a next gen, this is it.
>>107790039I too have an EVGA 3080 on Windows 10. I'm waiting for AMD's next GPU line before I move as well. I'm hoping that with Steam's new Gabebox coming out using custom AMD CPU/GPU and SteamOS being Arch Linux based, we'll see some real game support on AMD based hardware for Linux.
>>107790026right now is not really a great time to upgrade because of DDR5
>>107790061I'd be getting the 7600X3D, B850 motherboard, and 2x16GB 6000MHz kit of DDR5 for under $500 total. But it requires me to buy all 3 to get that price. I don't see memory coming down in price any time soon to be honest and I'm sick of waiting.
>>107789463new pasta just dropped
>>107790059You are such a stupid freak nigger. Worse than trannies that cry about AI ruining the fetish art market they cornered. Thanks for the faggot answer faggot.
>>1077900776 cores is a bit tuff. not a lot of headroom these days... if you plan to keep it for a long time it won't be fun.
>>107790086Why is this lil nigga so mad
>>107790086Looks like I struck a nerve haha sorry bro I'm sure ram will fall below the price of a gpu any day now.
>>107790093ok so it will cost me +$250 to get the 9800X3D and it comes with an X870E motherboard. Same RAM kit. Worth it? Realistically I intend to keep this PC for a long while. I'm only upgrading because I've officially had to start turning games down to medium/low to maintain >60 fps in single player games and all low to keep 120+ fps in stuff like Apex Legends.
DLSS 4.5>Is even more computationally expensive than the old transformer model so you get even less performance compared to dlss 3>Runs even worse on 30 and 20 series>Causes an extremely oversharpened look in many games leading to shimmering and flickering Dead on arrival but nvidiots will still glaze it like it's a miracle.
>>107790130the "value proposition" is pretty bad in comparison but i still think it's worth it just because you just aren't going to get that much longevity with the 7600x3d. If you're going to keep it for a long time it makes no sense to save $250 just for a considerably shittier experience for that entire chunk of your life.
>>107788659I'm fine with upscaling. Trying to play a game (a fighting game, at that) with fake frames and massive input delay is a non starter. I wish the time and effort was spent solely on adaptive upscaling so that it could be applied to anything, like emulated roms instead of fake frames.
>>107790135I'm sure a bitter Radeon card owner is a subject matter expert on DLSS 4.5>Causes an extremely oversharpened lookDLSS doesn't apply a sharpening pass since Super Resolution version 2.5.1 You had plenty of time to unfuck your purchasing decision, now you enter the GPU price inflation with a Radeon card.
>>107790135Nindians are like that
>>107790026I upgraded from a 9700k to a 9800X3D around December 18th, I wanted to wait another year but the RAM situation forced my hand.
>>107790135The have-nots have been experiencing sour grapes over DLSS since its inception
>>107790077>>107790130I think you would be able to "tough it out" on a 7600X3D until the 10800X3D imo, considering you're on a 9700K and the 7600X3D is still one of the best gaming cpus
>>107790026Rather than a 7800X3D, I'd consider a 7600X for better value or 7700X at the same price for similar game performance but not completely gimped for everything else.
Imagine shitposting about DLSS oversharpening in 2026.
>>107790170albeit this costs more overall than buying a 9800x3d now and calling it done though there is an argument for it.
The things I'd do for a gaming PC
>YEAH BRO, AMD’S FSAAR JEETSTONE TOTALLY OUTPERFORMS DLSSsaid no one ever
i love my gaming pc it plays bideo game and generates me ai porn ehehe..
>>107790199>>107790199>>107790199
>>107790187There is also the argument that a 9800X3D will have more resale value when the 10800x3d releases compared to a 7600x3d and you can likely upgrade for a reasonable price.
>>107790205yeah if he wants to deal with the headache of selling his old hardware. I did it a few times, never again since i started getting more money. Everything sits in closets Just In Case now then eventually the garbage.
>>107790183You realize it doesn't need to run a sharpening pass to cause oversharpening right the upscale and anti aliasing can cause it itself retard? There are comments in the new Daniel Owen video from people actually trying it that the new presets have shimmering and flickering now that didn't exist previously shill.
>>107789473Because AMD fans are about to start spamming the thread. They're really mad right now
>>107790240Why? They have Redstone.
>>107790221NVIDIA eliminated the sharpening pass to prevent the issue you're describing, and this DLSS 4.5 release shows you can't trust what random people say.A lot of idiots thought Preset K got a model upgrade.You had time to return that 9070 XT Prime for a 5070 Ti. This isn't how you undo your purchase.
>>107790255That's exactly why they're upset; they waited the entire year for an unfinished feature set.
>>107790552amd always releases the features copying some popular nvidia thing broken im sure the linux gamers are used to it
so done with these fucking driver issues on my 5070 ti. i was in the middle of typing up a shitpost dunking on the AMDrones ITT when my screen went black and I had to turn my whole pc off. im rmaing and switching to 9070 xt fuck it idc anymore.
>>107790569i dunno anon, i had to give up and go back to my old RTX 4070 after i returned my 9070XT, now i can't afford a new RTX but at least it's stable.
