Just wanted to report in for any anons who purchase a 50 series card. In my case a 5070.
Things you MUST do:
>Clean install of drivers
>Most recent BIOS update
>Disable G-Sync using Nvidia Control Panel (not Nvidia app) [available only on microshart store]
>When installing the card ensure 100% level and firm click into slot. If it sags even a few degrees you need a post, luckily the screws to the case leveled mine out
>Seat the power cable like you life depends on it. Really ram that fucking cable in as hard as you can.
>Protip seat the power cables before clicking into pcie slot.

Just dealt with 5 hours of headache and the culprit was an old BIOS firmware and a slightly loose power cable fed from under the card. The cable MUST come from above the card. Do NOT install from underneath.

Final protip, just buy an AMD card. 10/10 my worst Nvidia experience.

Wait for the 5080 super or get a 9070xt.
If you're going to be a 16gb vram cuck then atleast don't get ripped off by nvidia.

If you're making fue with a 1080ti for this long then you don't need a 5090 or even a 5080. The best bet for the future would either be getting a 5070ti or getting a really nice 9070xt and sitting in your hands waiting for the 70 series cards to drop.

The 50 series is basically a stop gap and the cards coming out in the future (although distant future) will be way different. Nobody on the 50 series or 40 series is expecting them to be anywhere relevant in the next three years.

Owning a blackwell card in 2028 will be like owning a pascal card in 2024.

>>109045179
Someone bought this for 320 euro and said that compared his old Asus MG279Q (1440p 144Hz IPS) and not mentioned here in HUB's video is very strong brightness directionality. Even looking at the monitor straight on at normal viewing distance the sides are clearly dimmer. Moving your head left and right makes it obvious as the brightest area moves with your head. You can even see it in the video.

This is something that fucks me up in trying to pick out an LCD monitor right now, the brightness directionality. There are other 4K monitors right now that you can choose in this price range too but I'll have no idea what they look like compared to it. That's why it annoys me how everything is sold through online retailers only now and never show in person.

I would consider 70°C to be low temps for CPUs. Consider changing the CPU fan curve because constantly changing fan RPM can be annoying when your CPU spikes from simply refreshing a webpage.
>>
>>109045324
Thanks.
>>109045345
yeah for normal desktop use I enable power saving mode so I don't get these spikes.
>>
>>109045340
Second hand 3090 used to be one of the best price/performance options for local LLM. Not 100% if it still holds up but I think so. You are obviously missing out some stuff like fp8 nvfp4 acceleration, but it is still a good deal for vram + bandwidth + compute + cuda capability
I dunno shit about facebook marketplace in particular but buying second hand is OK if you are using some intermediary place that allows refund policy and/or from a seller that lets you test shit.

MAG or MPG?

>>
>>109045629
>MAG or MPG?
MAG is MSIs mainstream tier and MPG is premium. MEG is flagship but you shouldn't bother about this unless branding is important
>QHD or 4K?
depends on the screen size and viewing distance. I like 27" 2k which is fine unless you're very close to the screen and for 32" or bigger I'd get 4k
>Ultrawide?
can be nice for productivity but can suck in gaming but this depends on the game
>>
Is this a decent deal? I don't need any NVMEs, as I already have six. I would just need to unmount my RAID array in my expansion card and move the shit elsewhere. Right now I have a 5600x and 7900xt. Looking at either sticking my old 3070 in it and moving the 7900xt into this, or getting a 9070xt and just buy another case and power supply. It's not like my PC is slow or anything. I've been planning on waiting until AM6, but apparently that's a ways off.

>>109045895
Anons were complaining about that motherboard because of how PCI-E slot is positioned.
>>
>>109044035
9070XT is a horrible idea.
Wait for AMD's next gen or get a 50 Series.
Having a card with no upscaling or PT support is a dead end and AMD knows it, their next generation will almost certainly have support for it whereas the 9070XT never will and in 2-3 years you'll feel like you got burned.

50-Series probably isn't going to age well, much as 20-series's RTX performance looks bad these days. But, at least it can support it and will do going forwards.

Nobody will ever recommend a 5080, paying 1400 for 16gb vram is suspicious as best
I would pick the 9070xt its computing power is similar to a 5070TI and is still somewhat close to MSRP.
You can then put the ALMOST EIGHT HUNDRED DOLLARS BETWEEN THESE 2 CARDS YOU LISTED towards other upgrades.
If you rather stick to nvidia pick a 5070TI instead of the 5080, or a 5070 which is very cheap right now and wait for the 60 series/50 supers with the money you saved

Fan question(s)
"Wireless Fans" are just daisychained fans but on a block, right? the wireless part referring to the fact that there are no wires between them and they only boast 1 cable; right?
So im gonna pick a fan hub thingie and hide it by the psu, on the space that most cases reserve for SSD and HDD and route the cables from behind the mobo to that space, effectively hiding them right? Because there wont be random fan cables floating to every fan header in the mobo all over

Even budget builds are boring now that the ram prices and ssds are ass,anyway consider the following
5090 doubled in price, before when it was mspr it was actually justifiable only costs 3x as much to get twice the performance of say a 9070 xt, now it's 6x as much

once again the **90 is the only gpu that could have made you money, you could have bought and now easily sell for 1,5x or something of what you made, you could sell it and buy two or one gpu that is half the power and made money back

>>109046633
$1500 for 20% more performance and 8gb more vram is a pretty bad deal. The fact that you'd have to wait 9 months for it to (maybe) become available makes it even worse.
At least with a 5090, that $4000 will get you 75% more performance and 16gb more vram, today.
>>
>>109046633
5090 is not a gaming GPU, let's start with that. The 80 class is the high end gaming class and the 90 class is the workstation/enthusiast class. You don't actually need a 90 class GPU for gaming and AMD's 9070 shows that you don't even need an 80 class GPU to have good gaming performance.

The issue is with people being mindless consumers that always want the absolute best of the best even if they don't need it, then bitch and demand that corporations give them highest end products, ideally for free, because they absolutely NEED the most expensive GPU for their CS2 and Valorant and other vidya that runs just fine even on 30 series GPU's.

First RTX cards came out 7 years ago.
Wasn't really until 2020 that games started to make use of RTX.
We're now in 2026. Literally every new title has Raytracing either in the form of Lumen or hardware raytracing.
AMD has only now caught up to Raytracing performance with the 90XX series, and Path Tracing has become the thing games are starting to use.

So, yeah. In like 4 years I think it's pretty reasonable to say that Raytracing will become Pathtracing and some new AI gimmick will be in vogue and AMD might just be able to do pathtracing by then.
>>
Despite the amd shitposting, and nvidia being 50% faster at PT applications I dont actually count pt as a real selling point. It looks way better, but its something you marvel at while the higher fps options remain the preferred mode of play.

60xx cards is when PT becomes a thing in more games, and you experience less performance penalty from enabling it.

Might depend on your viewing distance, but personally I don't think so. 4k @ 27" at a typical desk almost reaches the acuity limit of normal (healthy) human vision, so unless your monitor is particularly close or your eyesight is significantly above-average, I don't think it's worth it. If you're ever going to play something more demanding, a 5070 really won't cut it either. With a 5k output resolution you're going to need to run DLSS Performance (1440p rendering) at the very least, but in demanding shit that's probably too much for a 5070 still, so you might need to dip into Ultra Performance or something which I would not suggest.

If you're thinking of using the dual-mode for this to run at 1440p, the scaling is almost certainly going to be worse than DLSS so using DLSS Performance with the screen at 5k is likely to be the best image quality.

My viewing distance is the edge of an IKEA table, so about 75cm right now.

>not at a Dolby certified viewing distance

>>109047279
I'd say 75cm is already on the far end for a 27" screen so I believe 4k will do perfectly well. If you were super close like 50cm or something you'd probably benefit from the increased DPI a 5k screen would get you, at 75cm I don't think you need to bother.
>>
>>109047302
Well bear in mind my monitor has to sit closer inward than the absolute edge so depending on the stand it could easily get within 55-60 centimeters.
>>
>>109047279
just as note but the recommended viewing distance for 27" 2k is 80cm

I always thought 27" 1440p was perfectly fine

>recommended viewing distance for 27" 2k is 80cm
Which was a crazy discovery for me, as the general knowledge I always stuck with for computer monitors from back in the day was "an arm's length minimum" but for bigger screens this obviously isn't the case. Maybe that's why some people orient their tables vertically.

His "investigations" are just basic OSINT compilations that seems like some serious whistleblowing to his audience of midwits and those having far more views than reviewing hardware is the problem. Steve no longer cares about hardware as he realized he can grift off of being a talking head, and he will willingly shit on the audience that built his brand that watched him for hardware reviews, only to then use the same argument against Nvidia abandoning gamers and not seeing how much of a hypocritical cunt he has become.

So fuck Steve, fuck Gamers Nexus, I hope he gets blacklisted by the entire industry, none of his old butt buddies will be willing to talk to him as the GN brand will become toxic to associate with, and when he can no longer grift being a drama channel he and his brand will go poof as he will be unwilling to pay for hardware to review and no one will take his hardware reviews seriously anymore. He did this to himself.
>>
>>109047335
People get used to anything and start noticing weird shit. If anything, the more resolution you have the less visible aliasing you'll see which means that when you do see it it'll stand out more. I remember playing GTA IV last year and thinking it looked great in 4K but then I noticed that few of the cars have a metallic frame around the rear wind shield and it was just thin enough to have noticable aliasing.

I don't think I ever once noticed something as small as that when I was playing San Andreas or Vice City.
>>
>>109047335
I need to make sure the contents of my shitposts are correct.
>>
>>109043679
there are 4k IPS monitors have a dual mode, the reason dual mode exists is because 4k can't hit a high FPS through a displayport / hdmi cable, so it's capped at like 180fps (maybe using DSR compression, so maybe 120hz native), and then you can run the monitor in 1080p which will run at 360hz (BUT I think there are new cables+monitors that could, but it's not cheap / long).
But if you are getting OLED, you should buy a PC that costs around the same price of your OLED, but note you probably need to spend like $500 more on your PC because ram and SSD prices have been artificially increased.

probably 24" 1080p or 27" 4k. On a bigger screen you're more likely to recognize the individual pixels the closer you are due to ppi. If you're too close you wont be able to see the whole screen depending on the size of course. I find 27" 2k at 60cm OK but further away is more enjoyable in regards to the screen edges.

depends on the laptop.
either buy now and pay $150 more than 1 year ago for 16gb of ram + 1tb, or wait 2 years and hope ww3 doesn't happen.
I would suggest using your laptop like a desktop PC if you already aren't. Plug a Monitor to the laptop, some laptops don't have a high refreshrate / bad colors.
If you are playing a game that runs too poorly, it's possible you could go with the sketchy egpu pathway depending on your laptop / game.
So if you open up the CPU / GPU utilization, if you are using 100% of your GPU but only 20% of your CPU, EVEN with the lowest specs possible (including DLSS/upscaling 720p). Consider the egpu.
Note that if you hit 70fps but the game stutters, use a frame limiter and set it to 40fps or whatever, and it should play smoother.
So the cheapest EGPU connector is the m.2 slot, many budget laptops only have 1 m.2 slot. Also the m.2 wire will be dangling out of the bottom of your laptop.
If you only have 1 m.2 slot, I have been wondering if it's possible to use pic related (you would need to have a m.2 to pcie extension, Plus I would be a tiny bit worried about the power draw if you plugged HDD's/usb devices into it). But i have not seen if anyone is selling it, and I think it is a DIY project in chinese that requires you to have a AM4 motherboard to use as a doner (or maybe there is a seller), and you need to print it from a PCB website / own the tools.

Oh wait, a m.2 to pcie adapter requires power, so that means you need to... locate where the 12v power is, and solder a wire from the laptop and connect it to the adapter... But if you were assembling this PCB, this would be one of the easer parts to accomplish.

ddr4 system are not only cheaper but also much more stable and the ram doesn't run at 60c for no reason, ddr5 really hasn't showed it's worth yet, but it's improving a lot every new gen
sadly samsung doesnt make bdie anymore so those intel systems are way worse than they could've been
if intel were to remove the ecores and fill the space with cache, it wouldn't have the same 96mb of 5800x3d but if they get to 50mb cache it would make a tremendous difference

1) I want to avoid 13th and 14th gen even though I'm on B660

Instabilities, at this point I don't know if the foundries were pumping out faulty silicon or if microcode updates fixed it. But, assuming that it is now a solved issue, the silicon is fine and I could put a 14th gen in a 12th gen B660 mobo, and if the instabilities can be fixed by adjusting the voltage offset which should be possible on my B660 mobo with an unlocked CPU, then I may consider a 14900K instead. While my GPU is a 3090, I feel like having a top end CPU would compensate for many performance shortcomings. Plus, I'd like to have a fast single thread for older games as well as 86Box PC emulation.

14600k is faster than a 12900k I think in basically everything. 14700k is also like $250 on ebay right now.
>>
>>109048514
Well like I said, I'd like to have a fast single thread so the 14700 is not as interesting as the 14900K. From what I'm reading, you can tame a 14900K with an undervolt and a contact frame on air cooling where it's stable, fast and cool.

Here's what I have, a Gigabyte B660 Gaming X DDR4 with 64GB of 3600MHz CL18 RAM and a Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE. The motherboard's UEFI has a CPU voltage tweaker that I believe would work if I had a K CPU, so I could undervolt a 14900K. I would be more than fine with tinkering to get a contact frame on and find a stable undervolt.

So if the 14900K doesn't actually have unfixable flaws like core oxidization like people said during that whole fiasco, I could get a 14900K, put it in my motherboard and have it work, then I'd gladly do it. It may not be the most cost-effective option, but the thing is that right now my 12400 is doing pretty well in most scenarios, so if I'm going to change it for something better, I want to go beyond just a newer gen i5 and up it to an i9 to have a proper major performance boost, you know.

>Well like I said, I'd like to have a fast single thread so the 14700 is not as interesting as the 14900K
the 14900K can only hold 6ghz on two threads, beyond that it drops to 5.7ghz
the 14700K holds 5.6ghz on two threads and drops to 5.5ghz beyond that
since you're on a B660 i don't think you can override this behavior
>I would be more than fine with tinkering to get a contact frame on and find a stable undervolt
not a bad idea at all but don't come back here in 6 months complaining that your system is unstable and "degraded" because you undervolted too much

Well right now I have a CPU that can't even clock to 5GHz so having over 5.5GHz on average is already a step-up.

>And the short version for people who don't want to know how these CPU's work down to the transistors that only want to have a stable UV?
the most important part is that you need to match the loadline compensation of the board with the AC LL and DC LL you configure the CPU to
otherwise the CPU will get progressively more undervolted the more load you put on it, which is a pain in the ass to stress test
ASUS boards can sync this automatically but i don't know if gigabyte has a similar option
AC LL should always equal DC LL for best results and accurate power readings
>You can cause hardware damage by offsetting the voltage too low?
no
but it's gonna crash
and lots of people blame "degradation" instead of realizing they didn't stress test thoroughly enough

Not all of us can use Linux
>>
>>109049443
So basically there's a very specific sweet spot to hit when setting a voltage offset as the voltage regulation is all sorts of whack and can start undervolting too hard but rather than causing damage it's just a PITA to find as depending on how many threads are kicking in the actual undervolt is different. Well that's a good starting point at least, thanks.
>>
>>109049434
they copied the interactive governor from android. certain UI interactions spike the cpu to max turbo and then goes back to idle when it stops.
>>
>>109049475
>as the voltage regulation is all sorts of whack
it works as expected if you configure it correctly
but motherboard manufacturers haven't been very good at communicating that or providing reasonable defaults
the only point i'm trying to make is that "degradation" is a convenient excuse for instability on these chips, my 14700K hasn't lost a single millivolt since i bought it last year
>Well that's a good starting point at least
some other things to keep in mind
>you need to undervolt the ring/cache along with the cores, or you will lose ring frequency compared to stock
>the E-cores have their own L2 cache which is on a separate voltage rail, this cache pulls almost no power and can be locked to a static 1.2-1.3V forever, but don't leave it on auto
>hyperthreading (2 threads) on the P-cores requires a LOT more voltage than 1 thread, so make sure you load up all 16 threads if you are running with HT on

Nvidia had the resources to design a better cable. They didn't, they let the aftermarket sort it out just to save effort and money spent making a one-off dongle. 12V-2x6 makes this not an issue for future models nor has it been an issue for datacenter GPUs.
