whos the best prebuilt manufacturer?
I could only get a 5080 this gen.But, it means I just have more time to save up for a 6090 next time.
>>108498477Me.I am.
bro, WHEN are we going to get news on x3d am4 cpus.........................? they already said they are going to do something, we don't know what that is, but it will happen, and those things take time50% they restarted 5800x3d production, 50% they will make an even better cpu than the 5800x3dat this point I'd say it's very unlikely that they will go for the second option because we would already have seen leaks of new cpus if they were to exist, but 5800x3d re-producting wont trigger any leaksbut yeah, someone needs to say something, last communication was in january
>>108498589you can get 5090s at oem/si prices?
>>108498739No, but I put them together really well.You order a 5090, and I put a 9070 in there, it's 4 generations newer, and I'm only going to charge you $1000 for it.
