Yes, the new Noctua G2 fans are a "buy once, cry once" product.
You can try one of the Thermalright or cheaper fans, most people are fine with those. Some end up in pic.
You shouldn't be running any case fans near their maximum rated RPMs if you're sensitive to noise.
Max fan RPM is when your CPU is running at 85°C or above.

>as I'm using Linux.
Linux PC gamers don't move the needle, the Steam Deck's OS is disproportionately padding its user base figures.
The 5070 Ti is selling at over $1,000 in the US, while the cheapest 9070 XTs are priced at $730 (excluding Newegg giftcard promotion).
That's the willingness to pay more for the better card, especially considering this might be the last gaming video card some people might be able to purchase in their lives.
Plenty of Radeon card owners have been panic buying these RTX 50 cards because they don't want want to be stuck with a Radeon video card for the rest of their lives.

Those figures from the Jon Peddie chart is showing supply-side market share (AIB shipments, not sales).

AMD were never serious about increasing gaming PC GPU market share. I don't blame them because Radeon attracts poorfags who weren't willing to pay $800 for a 9070 XT.
Those TSMC wafers are better spent on creating higher-margin server chiplets.
AMD is literally letting NVIDIA have this market because they're prioritizing more profitable segments.

That doesn't change the question: what's the best GPU for me? I'm using Linux and 9700XT is the overall best card for its great support on Linux while also having pretty good performance for its price. If Nvidia offered better support on Linux, I would have picked up one of their cards instead.

AMD didn't want to waste chip wafers on designing a costlier, larger gaming GPU with lower yields.
So many 7900 XTX had to be discounted to flush the excess inventory to retards.

9070 xt is the best cost for performance card you can get at the higher end
3060 12gb is the best cost for performance card you can get in the low end

>>108310342
Why doesn't Noctua or be quiet! offer a cooler in the same footprint as the Phantom Spirit 120 with equal performance? Pure Rock Pro 3 and Dark Rock Elite are kind of mediocre because you pay mostly for the fancy tooling and plastic extras. Same on the SW4, look how much money you have to spend because of the extra shit.

No RDNA4 officially flopped and did worse than RDNA3 >>108310684 , at least RDNA3 was competitive in term of raster when they cut the prices, RDNA4 is overpriced and in the era of upscaling the best AMD gpu the 9070 XT provides around 4070 TI in terms of performance when you match image quality because of how superior DLSS 4.5 to FSR 4, then you have the fact that Reflex is so much more avaliable than Anti-lag 2 and the usual experience is worse because of it as modern games require antilag or reflex to have playable latency on the era of unreal slop in which not even the 5090 breaks 120fps at 1440p

9070 xt is still the best cost to performance at the higher end you can get right now and it'll probably remain like that until next series launches

I hate these industry kikes like you wouldn't believe. AMD will never catch up to Nvidia in the "race" because the race doesn't fucking exist. It's a fabricated psyop by the industry pushed by lying review influencers in order to brainwash the sheeple into being Nvidia drones. And the worst part is even if you know it's happening you have to bend the knee if you want to play certain games and them not looking worse than a Dx11 MSAA game from 2013 and running like shit.

Nvidia has years of headstart in this "race" on research and development because they are the ones who engineered this abandonment of MSAA and lighting optimization scheme to make developers lazy and retarded so they can just "fix the issues" with their AI shitting hardware. It's all just a big fucking joke. Without developers being the laziest pieces of shit and doing their bidding and UE licking their boots Nvidia would be on par with AMD in graphics. I mean look at Arc Raiders, that game didn't use the UE lighting slop nor did it purposefully go lazy as hell in their optimization and AA and the game both runs great and looks great in either hardware. I can run that game at 60fps on 8 year old AMD gpu/cpu.

AMD didn't ship as many RX 9000 GPUs as they've claimed, because the 9070 XT chips were meant to be sold at closer to $700~800.
If the product isn't as profitable as AMD projected, they needed to cut supplies and make something more profitable with those TSMC wafers.
They didn't want another repeat of the deeply discounted RDNA3 shitshow.

btw mlid said yesterday that the xbox equivalent rdna5 gpu die is planned to be sold for $550 and it's the 70 series, so it'll have 2 brackets above it
so the exact, literally the same, gpu that is in the xbox helix will be $550 mid 2027, I assume it's going to be a good card because games get tuned to perform on consoles so it being the same hardware from the most powerful console in the generation will be a very interesting advantage

>next gen is all about ray tracing, and maybe integrating AI into games for more realistic NPCs
>Sony won't port new games because only high-end cards will be able to play the games because of prior point
I think the most notable thing is that only the 4090 and 5090 will be able to play next-gen AAA games, so all the people buying 16GB to "future-proof" are going to be really disappointed. the 7900XTX has VRAM, but doesn't have any ray tracing hardware so it won't age as gracefully. they're doing a huge bump to RAM next-gen and all of our cards are going to suck for the new games.

I wonder if this is because of their ARM APU that's been delayed 2+ years, or if they expect a lot more people to be open to Linux due to Valve's effort, and Microsoft's lack of effort.

>>108310782
>According to Moore's Law is Dead, in some documents in their possession, AMD is targeting $550 for its successor to the 9070 XT GPU that will use the same chiplet as the Magnus APU. Adding in the cost of the CPU die and RAM, if Microsoft were to sell the system at cost, Project Helix could be priced as low as $999 through aggressive pricing that foregoes profits. However, it is unlikely this will happen, so the system's price is more likely to be in the $1000 range, unlikely to exceed $1500.
550 msrp would be really cool but honestly I don't believe that price

>>108310777
you fucking brand fanboys are so retarded. if radeon dies then nvidia gets to charge even more for their already-overpriced GPUs. FUCK that

>>108310700
Because they don't want to compete against the Phantom Spirit, that's called a race to the bottom.
Noctua would rather develop an AIO and cannibalize some of their air cooling market than make low margin alternatives to muh Thermalrights.
Noctua isn't trying to make coolers & fans for everyone, they want price inelastic customers.

At the end of the day, this is all business. Not every company has to cater to frugal people.

NVIDIA can get GDDR7 VRAM cheaper than Radeon's GDDR6 orders.

VRR is not so great if you don't game, especially if you have an OLED, because it can cause flickers. However if you don't have an OLED and turn on VRR the GPU memory clock can dramatically drop if you are using a high-resolution, high-refresh rate display.

Just shut the fuck up and use Unreal Engine TSR or FSR3 that's accessible to all GPUs. That's what you're entitled to.

So, it happened AGAIN. We can blame VRAM shortages, we can blame Sam Altman, we can praise AMD's efforts but the truth is it's simply not enough. MSRP, steam survey figures, you name it, it all stinks.
Don't get me wrong, I still have full faith in Lisa Su and the lads, but MASSIVE restockings are desperately needed in Q1 2026. Otherwise I'm not very optimistic about 2026 at all, or planned Radeon frame generation updates for that matter. Not shipping like this. What do you think, /g/? #RadeON or #RadeOFF?

It's not a coincidence GeForce cards started to build an insurmountable market share starting with GTX 900 & 1000 video cards.
People gravitate towards the better product, it's not about brand. There were times when Radeon had the higher market share because ATi Radeon sold some great GPUs.
That was basically the video card equivalent of Xbox losing ground vs. the PS4; it was a hardware generation AMD/Radeon couldn't afford to lose.

They should have been significantly cheaper than Nvidia and not raised prices in response to RAM shortages. Eat the reduced profit margin to build a consumer base.

Can anyone explain to me what "thermal shock" is. I get it in theory, but is it actually something modern PC parts should worry about?

I'm trying to figure out if I should turn off my PC at night, or just let it run.
I've seen people say the mechanical parts like fans parts most at risk from always leaving your PC on. And that turning on/off daily can cause "thermal shock" for the GPU and CPU.

What OS are you using?

Thermal shock is not a problem for your PC as you describe.

For years now I just leave it to sleep by itself, never really turn off the power unless I think there is a problem with power (e.g., heavy storms that might cause power problems for the house).

not really. the idea is that a big die is going to expand by lets say 0.1% with an increase of 50°C. the bigger it is the bigger in mm it is going to become while still being 0.1%. this would put more stress on everything that is connected to it because it wouldn't expand at the same rate. your hardware is going to be at room temp if you turn it on and whatever idle temp + temp for when you actually use it. so a very wide range. cpus dies are usually not that big. gpu dies are. same goes for the memory really since they are also connected via those balls to the pcb. if you want to keep your hardware very very very long. just keep it on with good cooling. if you actually going to sell. it won't matter.

Booting up the PC is one of the most stressful moments. Everything gets whacked with high voltage and the BIOS has to correct everything back to normal. This is why some PCs have trouble with sleep mode because in that waking moment the CPU or GPU shit itself going from high voltage back to its undervolt or whatever so suddenly.

here's the full list for you.

>>108311773
>how does undervolting help keep your card healthy?
It's setting your GPU to use less voltage & current to run at similar to stock, or even higher, performance levels.

>is forcing higher clock speeds with lower current okay for the card though
If it's not crashing or causing any instabilities, yes.

>>108311773
>is forcing higher clock speeds with lower current okay for the card though
low current
low volts
low watts
low temps
always gud
raising mhz increases temps but not by much

>>108311773
High voltage is the enemy of electronics. Reducing voltage makes them happy but too much reduction also makes them unhappy.

>>108311787
>>108311790
i understand. thanks for spoonfeeding me, guys, i appreciate it. i undervolted and got like 800 less unigine heaven score but the fps lows were higher (i guess because i pushed the lower voltages up too?) also the coil whine got less bad. so i will keep it like this or maybe mess around a bit more

How long does it usually take for prices to go back to normal once the supply issues are fixed?

>Or just cross brace in the back silly
I was actually imagining using cross braces and beams to reinforce the front with off the shelf metal parts for the front of the case if I don't reuse the drive bays, but I imagine this is why they used a jerry can X on the back panel. I should get standoffs that stick out far enough to do a cross brace. I'll check my local auto shop to see if they got that kind of epoxy as I remember.

Also, fakkin amazing how this bent 18 year old case manages to have perfect pcie card bracket alignment and screw compatibility even with the toolless mounting system removed.

Now I just need to figure out what airflow scheme I can get for a silent configuration if I can finish off this stinky chassis. I'll probably be restricting or blocking the top, rear side, and front intakes. I might just move the PSU to the top and then use two 120mm fans from the bottom for intake and one 140mm for exhaust. If it gets too hot then I'll check out 200mm noctuas to put one on the side if not keeping one at the front.

thats why undervolting is disgusting. i run my 4070 in the power limit with 3000mhz at 1075mv
10mv lower and it will crash. does it run hot? no, thanks to a 20$ fan swap, cooler than stock clock

Just bought a Thermalright cooler, the Phantom Spirit 120 SE, if this thing does indeed have a lot fan noise in 6 months like you guys are saying, I'm saying fuck it and will buy a Noctua NH-D15 G2, mark my words.

It w-will surely get fixed, r-right? It feels so fucking annoying to go from the 1080, which was as plug and play as possible, to this shit, where i'm going through every possible nvidia and bios setting just to not get a monster of a card to not stutter while browsing 4chan.

also try unplugging your extra monitors from your GPU.

I think it would do better at 4k 240hz IPS with the Pulsar range going all the way down to 30 fps.

Not Razer. Their software is god awful and runs constantly in the background. Logitech has an onboard memory manager that you only need to open for setup then never again.

Alright, so after researching and deal hunting all day I decided to go with a Logitech G502 X.

Mainly because I could get it for $77. And because the other option was Razer, and I don't want to deal with their software.

Rate my keyboard and mouse choices. Tell me I'm retarded and should have gotten something else.

>>108313973
Keyboard seems like a good deal if it's a quality hall effect KB.
No comment on the mouse, if you're happy with it that's all it matters.

>>108313991
The only reason I went with the Logitech G502 X and not some basic bitch chinese knock off from Temu is because I want those extra side buttons for quality of life stuff.
Mainly just copy/paste key binds. And key binds to swap windows back and forth between monitors. So I don't have to drag/drop them.

>Keyboard seems like a good deal if it's a quality hall effect KB.
I was skeptical at first, but it's legit. Got my hands on it yesterday. And it feels so nice to type on. It's near silent, the key presses feel buttery smooth, and I can adjust the actitation point of the keys. Can't ask for much more when I paid only 70$ for it.

> used rtx 3070 8gb for $190

You guys lied to me. AMD GPUs are better than Nvidia. 7900XTX is better than the 5080.

>>108314552
Because its a middle class thing and always have been. If you're not making like 100K a year you're just not the target demo for a lot of PC related stuff. Back in the day people used to drop a grand or two just to upgrade the soundcard so their games made nicer sounding bleeps and bloops.

Cyberpower is pretty good. I've been using an older model for over a decade. Recently bought one of the models from Woot as well. It says refurbished but it really looks brand new. I have a feeling someone returned it because a piece of silicone broke off and was rattling inside.
I bought the "gamer" model because it has pure sine wave instead of simulated.
