Ignore above. Shill trying to convince people paying over 1000 USD after tax for a midrange 5070 ti is a good idea
Found a 9800x3d for 200$Odds of this being a scam?
>>108078604Says "like new". But it looks scuffed up.
>>108078632It's just thermal paste. The dude doesn't have rubbing alcohol to clean it up ut seems.
>>108078632wouldnt risk itlike the dude has 500$ cpu but he doesnt clean the thermal paste with alcohol properly before taking a picture, theres something wrong with himobviously they're not upgrading it to something better, so why sell it. Drug money?
>>108078632That’s not scuffed that’s thermal paste and it’s a scam. Counterfeit CPUs are really a common thing. You must be young. If it is too good to be true then it is ALWAYS a scam. There will be absolutely nothing beneath that IHS except a few blips of epoxy to hold it on.

>>108078677>Just new to buying PC partsDoesn’t matter. Nobody sells a hot commodity for that cheap unless it’s a scam. That is universal.
alright 9070xt schizo. which 9070xt model should should i pick? i got a meshify c and two 8 pin connectors on my psu. max lenght is 315mm and without the front fan it's 335mm. is the pulse good? is the hellhound good? what about the quicksilver? ideally i would also like a version that i can deshroud to make it even quieter.
>>108078604>>108078632>>108078669I should have just looked closer for myself.It's a Ryzen 7 for sale. But the plastic casing in the picture is for a Ryzen 9.
>>108078673why is he wrong
Okay, found a more real deal.Open box, but around 100 cheaper than retail.
>>108078665>duderead the context clues
>>108078728That would make sense if they just upgraded
>>108078774do note the tray cpus may not have the traditional amd warranty a boxed cpu has, but the failure rates are sub 1% so it usually doesnt matter
>>108078774looks real to meif the peace of mind of having a warranty and the certainty that some retard didn't try to xoc with it or run the thing without thermal paste run it on dog shit asrock day 0 bios o algo isn't worth the extra $100 it may be worth.used cpus have GENERALLY been fine historically but idk it feels like ryzens are a bit more frail and susceptible to abuse.
>>108078790At worst I go steal a box from best buy.
good morning fellow amd brahmins
>the only thing keeping people on Windows is the shit driver support from companies like NVidia
how hard is it to get a ASUS B850M-AYW Gaming OC WIFI7 W ?
>>108078693If you want to keep your front fan you'll need to go with the asus prime. Power Color Reaper would have even more clearance but from what I remember from reviews it has the worst temps of any model and is noisy being only a dual slot card.
Okay, I bought the stupid AMD CPU, happy?Now tell me what good motherboard goes with this.
>>108078907>Now tell me what good motherboard goes with this.kneepads
>>108078904i would be more than fine with that. picrel is a 5070ti tuf (329mm). i just want a good one that is under 335mm and doesn't need the new connector or 3 x 8pin.
>>108078925Not seeing anything.
>>108078942They are used for something else anon....
>>108078937I did look and you could also fit an asrock steel legend without losing the fan. Probably just get whatever is cheapest. All 9070 XTs use ptm7950 for the core so those temps will be reasonable on all of them. The real difference is in noise and the vram temperature. I have the prime oc and overclocked at 350 watts in my lancool 217 the memory sits anywhere from 88 to 92 degrees with gpu and cade fans at like 60 percent, it's a bit loud right next to me on my small desk but I don't hear it at all playing with headphones on. If you undervolt instead you can run things much quieter.

>>108078995that is exactly what i thought
>>108078976Each brand has its unique naming scheme for "quality" brackets. Asus for example uses Prime for cheap model, Tuf for medium and ROG Strix for expensive model, even if they have the same GPU. Difference can be $200 or more for a bigger quieter cooler and more LGBT leds.
>>108079010and if the model is white it might have cheap components but still cost 200 extra
>>108079010>Asus Prime 5070TiI've read the Asus Tuf 5070 is literally exactly the same as the Aus Prime 5070, but has a slightly better fan.
>>108079010ASUS is funny. Their naming scheme lets you know they're never giving it their all when it comes to a product.
I am tired of looking at computer components pricesthe prices change literally every single day
>>108079018>Global gaming-monitor shipments climbed sharply in 2024 as professional leagues standardized 240 Hz to 480 Hz refresh rates, prompting vendors to launch OLED panels with ultra-low latency[1]. Hardware once confined to enthusiasts now permeates content-creator studios and financial-trading floors, widening the addressable base for premium displays. lmao stock trading floors full of oled monitors for the fast refresh rate to get the updates the fastest
>>108078830Bullshit. Normies like Windows because it gives them access to software that just /works/ for them. None of the normies listen to techs - they look at me like I've sprouted three extra eyeballs when I tell them to use it. They have no idea about all of the gear in the background running their digital world on Linux, they just don't care as long as their slopfeed /works/.Not one person I've built a system for in the past couple of years has asked for a Linux build until recently and it was an old geezer whose shitty thrift-store Dell got ruined in a flood. Linux has what, 4.x percent desktop market share and it's highly fragmented amongst various distros. Amongst my friends I think there is a lot of Ubuntu users, a couple of Mint, and I have Mint and Zorin installed - but I also have W10 and W11 on different machines and my shitposting station is a Windows box because I am trapped by my specific use case (muh money making productivity softwares do not work in Wine). And just I don't care. It's a machine. I'd use a Mac if needed (have Macs in my house too, we're a tech-oriented family).Don't get me wrong, Windows is a clusterfuck, but it's actually pretty good as a desktop OS for the majority of humans. What Linux needs is some huge globohomo corp to adopt it, make it work seamlessly and securely for the normies, support some solid productivity apps with real development money, and promote the shit out of it.>I should go check my levels now

>>108079245Immersion cooling is not efficient. If you run an open loop, aquarium cases work just as good as any. I don't know why water cooling hasn't been more prevalent with today's crazy power draws.
>>108079265air is just more reliable.

>>108079289Water cooling doesn't care what brand you have or your power draw. Have no hot spot temp in your 600w gpu? No problem for water, and all that at a whisper quiet operation.
>>108079319not a fan of water cooling. i just build my pc's and use them. the only failure i ever had was case fan dying. not a fan of maintenance for loops. not a big fan of buying water blocks, cutting and connecting tubes and filling everything up. checking for leaks etc.
>>108079337aio are great. An S tier aio will outperform the most expensive noctua.
>>108079367they can still evaporate and can have their pumps die. most are also kinda garbo.
>>108079263First gen Corsair AIOs are magicMine is still running after 11 yearsA goddamn miracle
>>108079378Maybe that's a problem at high altitude or something?
>>108079413See >>108079412I'm at high altitudeThey just built shit better at the beginning The saying "they don't build em like they used to"Can't comment on modern AIOs because I don't wanna do it again bc of the vibration to case but at least it's still running knock on wood
5070 is now cheaper than the 5060ti on walmart for any burgerstanis that are interested
>>108079412>First gen Corsair AIOs are magicLet me guess, H100 or whatever it was? I remember seeing this one Corsair AIO on every old build for some reason.
>>108079427My arctic freezer 2 is still going, I haven't babied it.
>look up all the "budget" 9070xt's>compare their weights>swift is ~ 170g above all of themi guess i am going to buy the swift then
Anyone know whether the Pure Base 501 Airflow or Lancool 207 are better at the same price or if the 501 is cheaper?
What do I need to know about cpu coolers? I have a B850 TOMAHAWK MAX. So how do I know what cpu coolers work with it?I assume anything from be quiet! is a good choice.
>>108079442I had one of those. Lasted me a decade, worked great, only cost $60 new.

How do the fans that come with the silent loop 3 sound? Thinking about putting a 420mm aio on my 9950x3d but if the stock fans are ass then I need to buy more noctua g2s.(not terrible)
>>108079464XFX killed in this gen, all the best cards on every price point is theirs, they made huge heatsinks on all of themthe mercury OC card heatsink is brutalI got a steel legend by asrock because it was much cheaper than everything else and I'm poor but I would have gotten the swift if I could, the mercury OC doesn't fit my case sadly.
8 heatpipes + vapor chamber + biggest card + 3 8-pin power connectorspcbg would've shilled this card hard if it wasn't consumed with brandwarring and brandfagging all day

2026 will be the first year since GeForce began in 1999 that NVIDIA will not release a gaming graphics card.Not a refresh not a revision, nothing. Wow.
>>108079617xfx also killed it with the rx 480 gtr and got killed with the thicc
>>108079721AMD gave up on the flagship, intel spent all their effort just to beat 5050 by 2%, so why bother.
>>108079712taichi > steel legend > challenger iircit all depends on which memory chips you get, I got samsung memory chips and they run at like 15 celsius lower than hynix so the card never reaches 70c on core or memory, it's a good card, they added this anti-sag bracket so the card is very solid, like a brickthis guy on reddit has hynix chips, changed the thermal pads and talks about the card daily for the last 6 monthshttps://old.reddit.com/user/Adventurous-Bus8660
>>108079760oh yes i know their tiers, i just wanted to know how good or how bad is the challenger compared to other base modelswith a pulse or a swift youre more than ok but what about a challengeroh yeah i read about the gook chips they are godtier, they almost make any card a tier above the hynx one
>>108079653Stop bullying my ventus it was the only 5090 I could find

>>108080018Yep. All those idiots that waited.
so GDDR7 was one big meme? its barely faster than GDDR6 in games yet it uses more power and costs way more. reminds me of early DDR5 almost no gains over DDR4.
>>108080049it's early into the development, second gen was supposedly faster and had more capacity on the chips but it all went to shit nowideally you would always want to upgrade at the last gen of each cycle and you'll be getting the cream of the crop of efficiency and capacity
>>108080049The biggest meme is GDDR4 and it's still unsurpassed on how pointless it was.
>>108080049it's like 30% more efficient and 60% faster but yeah basically gddr6 did nothing great post thanks
What are safe 5070ti temps?
Is this a good deal?
>The AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT uses GDDR6 memory.absolute state.
>>108080118having a pc with those specs going into the ai winter is worth anything just buy don't even look at the price free your soul.
>>108080049It's not a meme for enterprise AI shit. Blackwell rapes Ada massively despite being the same node. For gaming a bit better but not much
>>108080118>ASUS motherboardWouldn't risk it. Maybe you can resell it and get a better one.
gddr7 is 32gbps speed but it'll go all the way to 48gbps as it gets bettergddr6 is like 24gbps max overclocked, in game doesn't make an insane difference
>>108079711Who cares,, you got tons of videogames to play, and most professional software works well with current tech>B-but muh AIThen get a 6000 Blackwell you dipshit
>>108080159with ai memory speed is super important.
>>108080164The race is on for Intel to offer a 5090 competitor. Apparently nvidia will just quit for 2 years so they can catch up. Rather kind of them.
>5200CL40 at 1.1 voltsGiven how low the voltage is, are these just trash sticks/chips that couldn't safely run any higher or is there a chance these could hit 6000CL30(ish) relatively easily? Samsung chips for what it's worth.
>>108080181Forget about it. They need to fuck up in a spectacular way to lose to AMD or Intel, and they have way more capital. Bear in mind that NVIDIA procured the most memory chips out of the three before the AI boom and still they will postpone the 60 series launch. Intel got scraps compared to them
>>108080157Is is ASUS that bad?
>>108080206Rough past couple years and now there are recent reports of killing CPUs like Asrock. I can't gamble so I'd avoid it.
>decide to check on that 3060>$448Damn, the vram inflation is NO joke. Can't wait for the 2060 to be priced as a 5070!

Pure Power 13 M 850W - $90 (Amazon)CPU fan - SK700 AM5 Air Cooler - $60 (Amazon)Case - Fractal Design Meshify 3 Black Solid - 1$00 (Walmart)Total - $1,820 USDHow'd I do? Good build? Did I get scammed? I fell a little ill after adding it all up.If I didn't by that RAM and SSD 7 months ago I'm sure I wouldn't have gotten it at all.Make me feel better about my choices.
>>108080309Does the B580 work well with pre 2025 games? Because that's a lot of games you could be playing on 2k resolution even.We are talking about giving the people who still use older cards the chance to upgrade for cheap or buy their first card altogether. There are lots of people gaming on integrated graphics on desktop prebuilts you know. Or people with 3050s. Or 1660s
>>108080324>ASUS Prime 5070Ti OC 16BG - $750 (Best Buy)how'd you find that
>>108080351By buying it about 50 days ago when it was on sale at my local Best Buy.I actually posted about it in these threads and you guys told me to get it.
>>108080324>5070Ti for 750>32GB DDR5 for 120Do you smell that? Smells like... bullshitPost order or remain a lying faggot
>>108080366>Post order or remain a lying faggotThis what you want? Got it on Dec 30th of last year.I checked out of Walmart as a guest, so I don't have the order history for the ram. But I got it many months ago. But could never use it. My MoBo didn't support DDR5.
>>108080391
>>108080365I think I remember you. Good buy.
it's finally time to upload my old 2017 rig (i7 6700k + gtx 1080ti). In what order should I replace the components? I don't have the money to buy everything upfront
>>108080409Cpu and mobo for sure. 1080 ti is still good enough to hold out with till you can afford a new card later
Is this a good deal? 112$ per 1TB?
>>108080409gpu first then decide if doing anything else is even worth it you'll be looking at a full platform upgrade so it's gonna be shitload anyway you slice it esp. if you can't buy it all right away
>>108080417Oh wait, the seller has zero reviews.It's 100% a scam.
>>108080409>uploadAre you uploading it to where?

>>108080436The duality of the average PC builder.>>108080443It's fine, been there, done that, I understand how it is to be mentally exhausted, it was just a funny mistake.
>>108080206Why risk it? Honestly, some people.Like WHY???
Can someone remind me what good pricing on M.2 NVMe PCIe 5.0 Gen 5 SSDs were before all this madness? It was like 100$ per 1TB, right?
>>108080421:^) it's not a scam. use your mom's credit card. it'is a pretty girl and you'll get married. it's a sign. everything happens for a reason. why do you doubt?
>>108080455I literally hear horror stories from every brand. I've been using MSI last two builds and have been happy, but in about 5 seconds from now someone will chime in with a story about how their MSI MB raped their mom. It feel like just bad luck which hits at random.

>>1080801891.1v is JEDEC spec for all ddr5 ram>5200cl40chips that get sold at this speed were typically micron rev.a chips (maxes out at 5400cl38) but those got replaced by rev.d a while ago which does 6000cl36
>>108080481So it was about 110$ per 1TB.That's about the price here >>108080417 if it's legit.

>>108080417Fuck it, we ball.eBay has scam protection anyway.If it's fake Chinese shit I'll just return it. Because the seller accepts returns.
>>108080471Okay go buy an Asrock motherboard then. You have been informed there are multiple reports of shit going on (even mentioned in HUB podcast today) but you'd rather reply like a faggot.
>>108078321I recently robbed a best buy delivery truck and now have two brand new 5070 TIs. How do I make the best of them, build wise? Is Lossless scaling a meme? Are dual GPU builds worth it or should I just sell them both and buy a 5080?
>>108080118CPU - $500Board - $700Ram - $800Yeah that's a good deal

>>108080324If you have four sticks you're not going to hit the max frequency btwYou're either 32 at 6000cl36 or 64 at 4200cl36 or slightly higher with lucky timings
>>108080619How did you pull it off though
>>108080634Ram is pretty legit minus the retarded price.
>>108080667They're including 6000cl30 in that bundle? I kinda assumed they'd try to offload one of their 5200cl40 kits
>>108080687Yea.
>>108080637>>108080638>>108080651Obviously the goal is to be 4k 60fps capable for the next 4-5 years. If a dual-GPU build is something that can do that Ill happily try to work around what I already have but if its simpler to just get a 5080 I'd like to know before I really commit to a build.
>>108080704Nice. I'd shoot for a 5090 if you really want 4k. Maybe you should rob the truck with 5090s
>>108078321>*Exercice caution with 12VHPWR on high end nvidia cards with high power draw.>*5070 ti and 5060 ti 16gb production is paused.

>>108080649>>108080726Do I just sell 32G of it and make some profit since I got it for cheap months ago?
>>108080742Probably not.
>>1080807115070Ti and 9070XT are not running new games at 4K.The only card doing 4K for new shit is the 5080 and the 5090.

>>108080726>>108080741The same happens on some server and workstation boards, pic related will throttle RAM if all slots populated. In general its to prevent the memory controller from becoming saturated.>imagine the stutter
>>108080758Yeah, that too.
>>108080704Multi GPU for gaming is deadThe meta is to have the single fastest card you can afford meaning a 5080 or 5090

>>108080761>>108080741What a fucking scam.I could have bought one set for two 32G months ago for cheap if I knew that's how it worked. I thought because MoBos had 4 slots that's what you're supposed to do.
>About to spend like $350 on fans and a new CPU air cooler>all for the sake of their performance, color, and noise I guess the upside is not having to worry that the fans will die on me early.
>>1080807525080 uses the same chip as 5070ti.If 5070ti have trouble running, 5080 will also. if 5090 can run at 70fps, 5080 would run at 40fps which is terrible. 15% faster (5080) is not the same as 75% (5090) faster.
>>108080752>5070Ti and 9070XT are not running new games at 4K.They are for the /poor/s, though. Well rendered boob-jiggling physics at 60hz is possible with the right /settings/ for many - though I do agree that the true patrician should be using a 5080 or 5090 for 4k fap sessions. How about a compromise description like below?>do anons agree or disagree?>no flaming, no price bitching, no other /faggotry/>just discussShould sticky be like:>GPUBudget: Arc B580, 9060xt-Used: 2080, 2080ti*8gb has become a major constraint even at 1080pMidrange: 5060ti 16GB, 9070, 5070-Used: 3080, 3080ti, 4070 (~$380)4k : 5070ti, 9070xt-Native/High-end: 5090Or should it be like:>GPUBudget: Arc B580, 9060xt-Used: 2080, 2080ti*8gb has become a major constraint even at 1080pMidrange: 5060ti 16GB, 9070, 5070-Used: 3080, 3080ti, 4070 (~$380)4k : 5070ti, 9070xt (low settings), 5080-Native/High-end: 5090
>>108080778To be fair it really wasn't an issue for DDR4. DDR5 is real picky.
>>108080324Can this set up do 4k gaming on higher end titles like CP2077?
>>108080129Because AMD Radeon doesn't have the sales volume to get competitive GDDR7 supply deals.Not enough volume to ask for semi-custom VRAM designs like GDDR6X either.
>>1080807905080 is about 15-20% more performant than the 5070Ti.That translates to a number of games being 4K 60fps in games where the 5070Ti gets low-50s.
>>108080824>15-25%5-15%
>>108080832Based illiterate anon.
how much better than a 5070Ti is the 5090? I can place orders through my job for an RTX 5090 at around $2350 for varying models. I'm building a high end system that I don't want to upgrade for a long time. For reference I'm coming from an Intel 7980XE and 2 GTX Titan XP's
>>108080824Worth mentioning for the uninitiated that wukong runs terribly on everything. This also predates dlss 4.5.
>>108080824My point is, 5090 has 2x5080 worth of cuda cores, 5070ti has 83%. The performance difference between 5070ti and 5080 is slim compared to the gigantic gap between 5080 and 5090.
>>108080813it's kind of wild how picky it is. are we running into signaling limitations? that was my understanding on why ddr5 behaves this way, moreso than controller saturation. I wonder when we're going to need to physically move it closer. I think camm2 is trying to do this?
>>108080772The ram alone is worth 1k and you can resell the board for 600 to someone elseBeing poor is not an excuse to be retarded
>>108080860Good luck finding anyone to actually buy it, though.
Retard who is stuffing a 265K in an ITX case here, it seems like I won't need to lower PL1 after all. Manages itself fine even within the case.Now I'm working on figuring out SR-IOV with the Arc Pro B50 I put in here...
>>108080853Yeah, you're not wrong. But, purely on tiering for "Does this run current games at 4K"? They're effectively the same tier. Its just one is running at 60fps and the other 100, whilst the 5070Ti is running at 55. And the 9070XT in the 40s somewhere.If you're coming to the thread looking for a 4K build, you're getting a 5080, 4090 or 5090, so the recommendations should reflect that.It's either that or we just ditch the whole "4K" entirely and stratify our GPU listings by a nebulous "High-Mid-Low end".
>>108080872>>108080794
>>1080808435090 is nearly double the 5070 Ti's performance.You need to set up the power cable properly on both sides (card & PSU).It's strongly recommended to learn how to undervolt + OC the card to make it run more power efficiently and to give the 5090 a bit more safety margin.
>>108080881My job gets Quadro/RTX Pro cards from either Nvidia FE or PNY so the 5090 I'll get access to is ths PNY triple fan regular or OC edition, whatever they have on the shelf. Will cost me $2400. any red flags? I read about ASrock possibly killing CPUs but I have a friend with this exact motherboard and CPU combo with no issues, so I'm willing to take the riskhttps://pcpartpicker.com/list/PPqNn2
>>108080843What models are available?
>>108080898The AM5 failures are happening on all motherboards these days.It's still somehow Asrocks fault though. Apparently.
>>108080898PNY 5090 is better than the FEThe 5090 FE is the hottest and loudest 5090 model around and it's only advantage is it's small size to fit in compact casesI'm also using an Asrock board and my 9800x3ds not yet fried after 14 months
It might be a bit overblown.
>>108080898>any red flags?The new 600W power connector doesn't leave a lot of safety margin for a stock 5090.Get MSI Afterburner, learn how to OC the GPU core to around +180~210 MHz (to retain the performance you paid for) while setting a voltage limit between 875 to 950mV.That should reduce the power draw by 50W or more, making the card a bit safer to run.https://www.corsair.com/us/en/explorer/diy-builder/power-supply-units/is-bending-a-12v-2x6-cable-bad/Use the CPU & memory-less BIOS updating feature on that Taichi board before you install themThis is an old OC + undervolting guide using Afterburner, but the core advice is still the same.https://github.com/LunarPSD/NvidiaOverclocking/blob/main/Nvidia%20Overclocking.mdhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPpW9yXHvOU
>>108080899FE or PNY. Seems PNY is the choice to go with so I'll get that>>108080912That's what I figured as well.>>108080919OK thanks, good to hearLastly, would I be stupid in buying 3x nice IPS 1440p panels? After watching reviews of OLED/QLED etc forever they all seem to have garbage problems, potential for burn in, flicking VRR or some other shit. I'd rather not have to deal with any of that and would like to just get tried and true tech. I was looking at LG 27" 2560x1440p, 240HZ panels. They are $320 eachhttps://pcpartpicker.com/list/4rjv6B
>>108080898The connector is a red flag so make sure you get an atx3.1 power supply unit with the double ended 12v2x6 cable to minimise resistance variance across the connector (which causes melting) and consider getting a wireview pro ii to monitor the current balancing
>>108080937>Lastly, would I be stupid in buying 3x nice IPS 1440p panels?This is stupid. 1x 32" 4K & 1x 1440p is the better balance (fidelity/media/work on 4K, higher FPS on the 1440p).If you like to play old pixel remastered games, these are mastered at 1080p and have some CRT reshade filters that scale best @ 4K over 1440p.
>>108080937The 5090 is kind of pointless at 2k, but I guess I understand wanting the longevity. Hard to say what awaits us post-llm bubble, but I don't see the 5090 lasting 10 years before using it feels awful.
>>108080956The 1080 was sold as a 4k card.
>>108080947seems the Corsair 1500w unit I chose has PCIe 16-pin 12VHPWR/12V-2x6 Connectors - 2 according to partpicker. It's a 2025 model so I would hope it's 5090 ready. Since when did we get to the point where connectors are melting again? It's like daisy chaining molex connectors all over again. They couldn't just stick with 8 pins for fucks sake>>108080953I honestly only intend to game on the center panel. I will have one monitor vertical to the left for news, discord, etc, then the final monitor in landscape on the right for videos, music player, OBS, etc.>>108080956>10 yearsI don't expect it to. Hell I don't expect the entire PC to last 10 years, I'll be happy with 5 years of the PC not being slow, being able to run all my games at acceptable frames and fidelity. If my current PC could do it still, I wouldn't upgrade. I run my computers right up until they either die, or just can't do what I want.

>>108080045This. Imagine waiting for a 16GB GPU.
>>108080118A great deal even.
>>108080417Never buy CPU, RAM, SSD or any other delicate hardware from ebay. Scam is very likely here. CPU and RAM could be leftovers from binning, SSD could be complete fake. This shit happens every day.
>>108081219>CPU and RAM could be leftovers from binningIs there any way to check this?Would I just have to bench mark it myself with some kind of tool?
>>108080870>SR-IOVGl anon, i have a b60 and am waiting for updates...What are you hoping to split up?
>PC I bought in November is now worth like $5K.>I could sell it and buy one with a 5090 rather than the 5080 I got.It's not a good idea, but, it's an interesting idea.
>>108081233there's nothing to check. all it means is that someone bought a whole bunch of cpus to test and sort, and then sold off the duds at a discount
>>108080118>see this>already have microcenter's 9800x3d deal>too late to return itMaybe I just sell it on ebay for a discount and get this instead.
>>108081237i'd do it since the 5090 has double the hardware and is 40-50% faster in games
>>108081246>there's nothing to checkThen how could it be any different than something you bought off the shelf? That statement doesn't make any sense.You should be checking to see if the ram runs at the right speed, or the CPU clocks at the right speed, etc etc.
>>108081251Yeah, but it means>Finding somebody to buy my system for at least $4K>Getting less and slower RAM>Probably buying a prebuilt which will just have all cheaper parts.It'd still be a faster PC, however...
>>108081253manufacturing isn't perfect so everything that comes off the manufacturing line exists on a continuous distribution of performance, power and functionality. e.g. buying two 9800x3ds could net you one that's programmed for 1.10v and only uses 110W in cinebench and a second that's programmed for 1.35v and pulls 150W in the same test and thermal throttles
are compooters getting more expensive? Everyone keeps saying that, but I don't see any price hikes
>>108080711Nicotranny Canadian jeet makes these OPs since they're unemployed and camp around bump limit
>>108081272If they can test them to see what the duds to sell cheap are, how come you can't do the same tests?
>>108081306Because it works within spec, the people you buy from are not going to let you return it because your friend anon has one that is a bit nicer
>>108081306NTA but even the duds will run at stock speeds since they are designed so. It's just they might run hotter or draw more power than average.

Instead of talking about cpus, gpus, ram, and storage, recommend me a mouse and keyboard combo. Though I really only need a new keyboard.
>>108081523The 6000 series is never coming out. By 2028 military grade Gpus will be banned for use by the peasant class.
>>108081523>im so glad i didnt listenThis is not a rational statement to make. Whether you upgraded to the 50 series depended entirely on what you were originally using. If you were 20 series and older you would already know if you were "forced" to upgrade at that exact moment to keep up. If you were a chronic upgrader who swapped every single generation then outside opinions were completely irrelevant.Nobody waits for the next generation. Everyone waits until the price is right for the latest generation. It is the latter who have lost miserably.

Hey guys. What's a good upgrade from a AMD RX 6500 4GB...lol
>>108081650RX590 8GB... just kiddingJust look at the performance list https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/radeon-rx-6500-xt.c3850 and pick one above it with about 100% increase, and available around your area for cheap. It's really easy to get a card faster than it since it's so shit.
>>108081235Just looking to get a couple GPU-accelerated Windows VMs going at the same timeSeems to be working great so far!
>>108081630>Is it.It's really no effort. For the majority of games you can set steam to ccd0 and every game launched from steam would follow the same rule. For games outside of steam you would set it once in process lasso and never worry about it again.
I don't even know what core parking is.
>>108081701It really is. Thanks man. I'm actually considering getting the 9060 rx which is a mid range. I'm mainly concerned if the cpu will be able issue which is AMD Ryzen 5 5000.
>>108081235>>108081739Oh, and because I never really saw any testing on this front:8GB and 16GB VFs get identical Unigine Superposition scores as the host does on LinuxSeems like each VF gets the whole compute pie to work with and the only thing you're actually splitting is VRAM.
>>108078321what are some good NVME ssds for linux? 3rd gen, or 3rd gen compatible.
>>108081920wd_black ssds are great for linux. they dont really make gen3 stuff anymore so you could consider one of their budget gen4 drives like the sn7100 or older sn850xmost brands will work well, except for samsung which for whatever reason, performs at a fraction of the hardware's capability when not using windows

>>108082108It's PCI-E 4.0 @x4. The x4 is the interface you're referencing, PCI-E 4.0 is the generation. Usually cards are x16 or x8, one reason why 6500xt is so shit is because it runs at x4. Newer cards can make use of PCI-E 5.0 but they are backwards compatible.

>tfw rtx 5070
I built this PC in 2020.About a year ago, one of my RAM sticks died. It wasn't the slot, it was the stick itself.I replaced it and no issues.Now I started having Chrome tabs crashing "aw snap" and even blue screens with memory errors.I don't want to lose another stick in this economy.How do I salvage this? Should I move both my sticks to the other slots? Should I drop their frequency and the CPU FCLK to stay 1:1?

Someone a few years back said that on aliexpress you can find laptop GPUs repurposed for desktop, which are fairly decent and sell cheaply.Do such models still exist today that are somewhat decent?
Circumstances happened and now I need a PC. Doesn't have to be strong. No GPU needed. I only need CPU+mobo+RAM.I know now's the worst time to build a PC, but it can't be helped.Microcenter has 7600X+mobo+16 GB DDR5 RAM for $350. I'll buy it, but I just want to know how much better was this deal before the AI bubble? Or perhaps anyone knows of anything better?
>>108082457the iGPU on AMD is utter dogshit, you might have a better time with one of those monolithic CPUs from them, those that have more GPU compute units and of superior designs but just buy the most inexpensive dedicated GPU instead
Best 1K Watt PSU i can get within MAX 250 euros?
>>108082462What the fuck are you talking about? 8th gen Ryzen APUs beat the piss out of Intel iGPUs.
>>108082506>8th genYou mean 8000 series? That's Zen 4. Also they're talking about the small iGPU they now put on regular CPUs, not APUs.
>>108082539Yes 8000 G series. It's clearly a better deal than 7000 series - better graphics, lower power usage. The only downside is it doesn't support ECC, but I doubt OP cares about that.
>>108082506>>108082539Yeah the igpu on ryzen is poopoo it's only 2 compute units compared to the dozens you get on dedicated boards. Only good for video playback and display out. RDNA2 still beats Intels drivers though, like it wont glitch out running Gamecube games.
>>108082453lol rumors say that 6500xt chips were intended for laptops and AMD decided to make some quick bucks during shortage. They were such dogshit cards, mid range cards from 2016 trade blows with them.

>>108082729no, i suppose i wouldnt.but really tho. its extremely tempting.
>>108082760>its extremely tempting.How much of an expense is a 10,000$ card to you? Do you have the time to set up an ai workload to actually use the card?
>>108082712
>>108082760What if I told you it made you gay? (Or straight if you are gay.)
>>108082770thats the thing, i wouldnt even use it for ai or gaming really. i just have an itch and nothing else is good enough to justify buying. itll pass, i was basically just talking to myself.
>>10808269596gb feels weird. its not a power of 2 and its 4 less than 100gb and feels like you're getting jewed somehow
What's the quietest 100 euro case that I can buy these days? I'm very sensitive to annoying noise (fan bearings, coil whine, hard drive rattle, etc) and I'm used to just running five 3-pin 120mm fans on the low RPM setting and forgetting about it and still getting cool thermals, but my old case is really cramped and starting to fall apart.
>>108082791It would be some really weird bragging rightLike you have a fucking obelisk
>>108082835Salvage the fans and put them in a fishtank or something?
Waitfags have never lost harder.

Alright. Those who know about mouses. Is the Asus ROG Harpe Ace Aim mouse any good? It's on sale for 70€ and it has a campaign that you get Resident Evil Requiem for free with it which is a 70€ game. So I'd basically get it for free.
>>108083056I got it, its alrightstarted double clicking at some point but went away on its ownbattery could last 5 x longer
Should have bought 5070ti not 5060ti as the last gpu I can afford.
>>108083090Literally everyone here was telling you that.
>>108083090>60 series will come out before gtavi
>>108082835dunno, antec flux pro is pretty quiet for me, great acoustics. Probably too expensive for you though.9 fans total compared to my previous corsair rig, which had 5, minus gpu, and its significantly quieter. Arctic freezer III 360 aio aswell, dead silent.
>>108083090The ai bubble is already cracking at the seams though, by the time the 6000s release they will come crawling back
well fuck it. im going to try once and if my credit union blocks the relativly large and out of character transaction, ill take it as a sign.
>>108083090The 4090 will go down in history as the greatest GPU of all time followed by the 5090. My 5090 will now be best on earth for an additional two years. So glad I bought it.
>>108083261thanks ai niggers for making everything better I guess.
>>108083267My GPU is an investment. Even the 5080 I bought for a backup seems like it's a good deal now.
RIP LINUS
>>108083284>My GPU is an investment. The tone deafness and hilarity of this statement concerning commodity consumer electronics is incredible, because the markets are delusional eniugh to permit such mental wackjobs to begin with.
>>108083090>nvidia legitimately becomes novideo this yearboly shit lmao
>>108083332It's no more absurd than collecting shinny rocks. Processors are made in two places on earth and are required in everything. GPU are little boxes of magic. It all makes sense that they will go up in value, especially since we have hit a tech wall for innovation.

/pcbg/... I'm free... I boughted a 5070Ti to upgrade from my 7900XT...
>>108083418I still have a 3090 in the closet that has only depreciated $100 from when I bought it new. That could have been two and a half years of use for $100.
>>108083443Congratulations!
>>108083443im sorry to hear you wasted so much money on an amd gpu
>>108083090>Global memory shortage makes it so they can no longer release GPUs at a price anyone wants to buy.>Nvidia is no longer a gaming company that does AI, It's a $130 Billion AI company that maintains a legacy gaming business as brand markettingNigga, what the fuck do you want them to do? If they released GPUs at a price that made sense, you'd be bitching about them being greedy and price gouging. They wait to release it until it's more affordable, all while releasing shit that makes current GPUs perform better, and you're still bitching.Corpo bad, obviously but at a point you're just begging them to give you a free GPU.
i think i understand why normalfags are addicted to consuming holy shit that adrenaline is insane.
>>108083485Yea I almost bough this >>108080118 and I don't even need it. I slept on it knowing full well it would be gone when I woke up. It's like going through withdraws. But that sweet super fast RAM still haunts my thoughts.
>discover those bee-whatever mac mini ripoffs>they come with connector for external gpu>noice>only mossaad-inside is "supported" for external gpu and proper cpus are "complicated to implement"oh for fucks sake

>>108082457Step back for a moment and ask yourself if actually you might be better off with a laptop. Circumstances are never going to be "wow I really needed to play videogames right this instant". Intel has a lead with their integrated graphics at the moment but is likely irrelevant to you simply because that is a very recent, bleeding edge development. Then again Intel is in the vast majority of laptops anyway.

So RAM might get worse again, Samsung and SK are changing the way they conduct deals where they will only guarantee supply not pricing considering the 'volatile' nature of the market and from now on pricing will be set on day of delivery not before.

>>108083978See you in six months when you are crying about loss in performance or hardware damage. I killed my 980ti the same way.
>>108080824>>108080843>>108080881Relative to 5070 Ti in average the 5080 is 15% faster and the 5090 is 80% faster.
>>1080842315090 doesn't matter when it costs 3 grand. It's a workstation GPU and only 0.1% of gaymers bother with such pricey hardware
>>108084264>0.1%0.39% on the steam surveythere's a lot of 5090s out thereThere's more 5090s than 9070 XTs
>>108084020what kind of retard are you? i never had hardware fail on me due to me not monitoring it. you plug it in. install the driver and it works. if you are a water cooling autist maybe but then you deserve it happening to you. unless you stab the heat pipes the cooler is going to work until the fan stops spinning.
>>108084231Damn, I knew the 9070XT was weaker, but I didn't know it was only 61% of a 5070Ti.
>>108084323That's what happens when you listen to crazed amdrones and shill youtubers. 9070XT swings like crazy but they'll tweak shit to make it all seem even. There are so many games AMD just gets killed at for seemingly no reason.
>>108084231So, 15% stock and 20% OC'd?
>>108084231>microslop w*ndows
>>108084323If you play FFXIV and they never fixed the drivers since a year ago, yeah.
>>1080843239070xt is 107% of 5070ti shithead
>RX 9070 XTs are now "discounted" for $750, with a normal price of $850.I want to mag dump the executives.
>>108084386It's 0% of the GeForces DLSS power!Let this sink in: zero!
>>108084386The graph clearly shows it's 61%.
>>108083090I should have bought the 5060 Ti or the RTX Pro 4000 24GB instead of the 5070 as the last GPU I can afford.
>>108084264At $3000? No. If it was $1500-1600 like the 3090/4090 then it'd be reasonable, $2000 is already pushing it a lot.
>>108084264> 5090 doesn't matter when it costs 3 grand.2 grand would be acceptable, 3 is obscene. As the owner of a 4090 I was never tempted to pay double for a meager improvement.
I wonder how games publishers feel about the prospect of being forced to give 50% of their profits to cloud service companies.
>>108083978There are programs that do it for you, Tyrone.
>>108084313Or you need to repaste like my 980ti RIP.
>>108084483Maybe they should fucking optimise better then.
>>108084264More people bought 5090s for gaming than the 9070xt.
>>108084231>>108084323>black nigger wukong>ffxiv>cyberpunkwhats next to benchmark? the witcher 3 with hairworks on? this is as dirty as benchmarking mh wilds and call of duty only and saying the 9070 xt is bettera real comparison requires minimum 20 games, the 9070 xt is around 5% slower than the 5070ti on all avgs.
>>108084518>People benchmaking new GPUs with new games????>Why would anyone who spends $700+ on a GPU want to game a game released in the past 2 years???So 9070XT is only good for old games?
>>108084367What's with the BC glasses?
>>108081482It's not going to explode, just realize there is a reasonable chance you should not expect any overclocking headroom etc

>>108081482> But this guyMe that is. Yes, with so many reports of failing Ryzen CPUs you should be worried. And if you buy from "some guy on ebay" good luck with RMA!It's not worth taking the risk just to save 50 bucks if you spend thousands in total for your system.

>>108084378ffxvi is frankenstein of a game, the code has been mutilated for years but because the game hits 150 avg fps on literally any computer no one bothers to fix the performance, idk whos fault it is, square enix or amd
>>108084513Doesn't matter. The hardware companies have prioritized data centers. Thus the hardware companies are in bed with Amazon and Microsoft and it's in their best interest to kill the consumer hardware market. Thus, publishers and developers are basically slave-chained to the companies running the cloud services from this point forward. Their freedom within the market has been taken away via the calcification of a trust.
