>>109965238
>>109964972They only seem that way, because your average retard routinely blows many hundreds every single month on socializing and buying excessive calories and then thinks they have no money.But they're definitely not without purchasing power.By cutting down on normie expenses for few months, the average Joe could easily buy a 5090 without even realizing they spent that money.
>>109965294the subhumans making iq bell curve edits are always retards larping as geniusesit's a simple fact that the world would be better off if everyone used linux and someone who isn't retarded isn't going to drag their feet on this
>>109964972i thought steam was supposed to be overrun by 3rd worlders still stuck on 2060s and 3060s...
>>109964972On bare performance/money scale the 5070 is kinda the border before it starts to dip for normie usecases. Keep in mind the percentage price difference between the 5070 and 5070 ti was already bad in the past, it only got worse over time. You can get 3x 5070 for the price of 2x 5070 ti nowadays.
>>109965295if I had a burgerflipping job I would have a 5090shit I would probably have 5-10x'd my netwroth this past year too because I could have invested in alotnow I just live on 400 bux as my expendable money after bills are paid and I wanna kms (not literally but figuratively)

>>109965785>woled has grey bandingdoesn't happen on rgb stripe woled
>>109965755This is one of the worst placement for a QD-OLED display (window behind the monitor).Even WOLED will present raised blacks on that desk setup.

>>109965828the ram & ssd cost more than the mobo & cpu
>>109965828nvidia has stopped producing 5090's, they will stop producing all 16gb vram card as well in november
>>109965852nta and i just checked my local prebuilt prices and saw that 5090s are going at 6x the cost of a 5080its safe to say that 5090s are EOL'd

>>109965848AIEEEEE
>>109964972it's a relative thing. there are places where people will complain about the economy being bad and their job being shit because they can only afford a 5070.
>>109966108so true, everyone ideally wants a 16gb card but more powerful than the 5060ti, most 5070 owners wish they had a 5070ti instead
Where I live the 5070 costs 1k usd and the 5060ti 16gb costs 825 usd

I wanna fast forward time to when I have money to build my gayming pc, soon I'll run out of games to emulate
>>109966384That grey banding is worse than having to deal with ips glow
>>109966530>Haitidirt cookie bros, our response?!
>>109965716that's every thread
>>109966384my PG27AQWP-W took a few weeks to have somewhat uniform grey and it looks passable now. The grainy grey is something you'll have to get used to.
>>109965726Nope
>>109966805Things you need to get used to in order to use OLED:-Burn in-VRR Flicker-PWM -Text fringing on 1440p -Purple tint on older QD-Oleds-Pixel refreshes-Hide your taskbar-No static elements for too long-Grey banding on WOLEDS-Reflections on glossy monitorsAnything else im missing?
>>109966771a billion percent worse it makes no sense youtubers ignore it. When I see any BUYERS review it they call it unusable trash and send it back.
>>109966837>-VRR FlickerI only have this in loading screen and shader comps but I'm also sitting on a 5090 so fps is more stable>-Text fringing on 1440pslightly noticeable in light mode, less in dark mode but yea IPS is clearer>-Pixel refreshesnot an issue for meIt also helps that I'm used to <200 nits so reducing the brightness was the very first thing I did.
>>109966837>>109966844And that's just the thing. OLED buyers will put up with all sorts of shit. They are too blinded by how good looking oled is that this massive list of problems they literally do not give a shit about. Grey banding is the only issue I've seen lots of people actually say unacceptable and return it. But of course they just go an buy a QD-OLED instead.TANDEM WOLED will never beat QD because of it.
>>109966837OLED will always be a tv tech just like min led, desktop usage has too much static content
>>109966872Just not true the OLED market just gets bigger every year. Even hospitals are upgrading to OLED because it makes medical scans look way better. ASUS even makes a display just for this. This display is $5000 btw.
>>109964919PS5 emulator makes me want to upgrade................But then again, I only have DDR4 ram so my maximum upgrade path is 5800x3d. Currently i have 5700x so i dont think the upgrade will be worth it.No, i wont upgrade to DDR5. I have 64gb of DDR4 ram and 64gb of DDR5 price is retarded

>>109968244how will i notice this in day to day use?
>Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE CPUis it good? need something affordable and that is reasonably quiet
>>109968265Its good but not quiet, be quiet pure rock pro 3 if you want silence. Wont cool as well but unless you have a 14900k/14700k it doesn’t matter.
>>109968260FGR + Rank Interleaving = reads/writes are never blocked during refresh.what this means for you the user is no data stalls. as in no stutter. audio is clean. you click something it happens instantly there is no waiting for your ram to do its thing before the cpu can do its thing.
>>109964972Steam survery is misleading since it's opt-in and includes laptop cards. I promise not a single 50 or even 40 series card is in the average PC connecting to steam.
>>109968287DDR5 can refresh some banks while still using others, and dual rank lets the controller hit one rank while the other is busy. That cuts down refresh stalls but doesn't get rid of them, DDR5 still does full refreshes too. Also that bank refresh thing is a DDR5 feature, single rank DDR5 has it as well, so you're really comparing DDR4 vs DDR5, not single vs dual rank.Main issue is scale though. A refresh stall is a few hundred nanoseconds. Stutter and audio crackle happen over milliseconds, which is thousands of times longer. One frame at 144fps is about 7ms. You can't feel a 300ns pause and the CPU cache hides most of it anyway.Crackling audio is basically always drivers, DPC latency, USB or power saving stuff. Stutter is shader compilation, streaming, bottlenecks, frame pacing etc. RAM refresh isn't the cause of either.Dual rank DDR5 is worth a few percent in some games and bandwidth heavy stuff, but it's a benchmark difference, not something that makes your PC feel snappier or fixes audio. If upgrading fixed that for you it was the new platform or a fresh install.
>>109968322all this yap to say incorrect bullshit and random nonsense. your computer doesn't care about feelings or what you do. it sees everything as 1's and 0's and those 1's and 0's get blocked because people cant setup bios properly for their ddr5.
>>109968298laptop cards are seperate>>109966814
>>109968342You're the one who brought up feelings, your original post was literally about audio being clean and clicks happening instantly. A refresh stall is about 300 nanoseconds. Your audio buffer is usually several milliseconds. Even if every refresh blocked everything, it's over long before it could ever cause a crackle or a delay you'd notice. That's just maths, not opinion.BIOS setup is a different argument. Not enabling XMP or EXPO just means slower RAM, and bad manual timings usually mean crashes, errors or failed boots, not "blocked" data. None of that is down to single vs dual rank or how refresh works.If you've got a source showing refresh stalls causing audible crackle or input lag I'm happy to read it.
>>109968343Thanks for the correction, but the reason behind it is the same. Enterprise orders for prebuilts and netcafes are all going to go with the cheapest "enthusiast" tier card and that's the 5070.>>109968322DDR5 is functionally useless for consumers at the end of the day. People just like having the latest thing.
Ranks that are not currently transferring data can execute their refresh cycles in the background with dual rankFGR ensures every memory bank refresh independently Combined the system always has access to a open memory bank at all times. It's not waiting for one side or both sides to re-open.
A CPU with good IMC and a 2x DIMM slot motherboard are not a meme.I am currently running 8000MT/s @ 1.35V memory voltages.

I got a second monitor that's 1080p and honestly it's not so bad to game on. Maybe 2k was a mistake
>>1099687281440p was always the midwit resolution only used by gaymers, most content is in 1080p and all productivity work is better on 4k and higher resolutions.

>>109968660It doesnt matter. I only own AM4 platform
>>109968764I only use 1440 for gaming and have a wide monitor for "productivity" which is honestly something I don't believe in since I work better on a single laptop screen anyway
>>1099687281080 is maxed out by any 50 series card. 1440p is a good compromise for running games at native with DLAA since only the 5090 can (mostly) reliably do 4k.

The age of the PC is over. Look, the vast majority of people don't even own a PC and those that do either haven't touched it in so long that it has an inch of dust on it, or they have a laptop they pull out once in a while.People who actually use their PCs on a regular basis for gaming, coding, whatever are a TINY minority in the grand scheme. So, this who hardware disaster.... yes.... it is because of the AI faggots, but there was a secondary effect that businesses have caught onto and are taking advantage of. Can you guess what that is?>Hey bro, I heard you can't afford a PC>Check out of subscription based cloud services!What storage?>iCloud, Google Drive, OneDrive, etc etc etcWant AI?>Frontier subscriptions! Want gaming?>Game Pass, It's just like Netflix, but for games!Want to code?>Hey bro, just subscribe you can use our services! (psst don't read the terms of service too close cause we have the right to steal your IP work and use it as our own! tee hee)Some of you chuds have your heads shoved up your ass so far you don't see it coming. Hardware will never return to normal prices and those prices will continue to rise for the foreseeable future. If and when the AI rush slows, the prices will still stay high.You will own nothing and you will like it. You will surrender all of your privacy to corporations and you will like it. You will give up your rights to owning your own intellectual property and you will like it. You will only have a smart phone or a tablet and do ALL of your computing through subscriptions and corporate owned clouds and you will like it.Screen cap this.ITISGOINGTO HAPPENand there is nothing you or I can do about it.

>>109968366Ddr5 is fast enough to perform decently in single channel due to raw bandwidth improvements and having two 32bit sub channels per stickThat's a huge upgrade for bottom barrel single channel consumer systems over ddr4 ones which starts lagging over the most basic tasks
Guys, this nigga is scaring me >>109969247 because I'm sure he's right so I think I'll have to ask my mom to take a loan (I'm a neet) to finally build a PC and make it so it stops bugging my mind
>>109969330I'll upgrade from the 4670k to the 4650k
Any point going 5800x3d vs 5600x3d for iracing? It'll be on my dedicated simrig. Reusing the ram from my old i7 6700k. I'll use a 4070 Ti Super probably. I think racing games are mostly single core so not sure an extra 2 would be too beneficial.
reminder only the 4970k and the 4870k have extra cache, and the 870k has 4 less e cores, it's probably the best one desuthe rest of the cpus are just shit
>>109969373Clockspeed, IPC and updated instruction sets (avx512, avx10, apx) is king for emulationUnfortunately, the 5800x3d is pretty far behind in all 3 aspects
>>109969853>Clockspeed, IPC and updated instruction setsWhat cpus have all of this
>>109969853yeah, amd should've launched the 6800x3d (7800x3d for am4) so we could have avx512 but they are a jewish company and they have no incentive to make any good desktop cpus now that their server cpus are selling like water
>>1099698699850x3d is the best we have. x3d cache helps a fair bit too but it can't carry a cpu if it's clocked too low or has too little IPC
>>109969871>its the one guy who thinks zen4 for am4 was ever even so much as a scribble on a napkin or a passing consideration by anyone at AMD
>>109969941it would be selling like water in the desert if it was for sale TODAY and you know it.but of course now it's too late, it's easier to wait for the ai prices to come down in 2030 and make a zen 7 pc at this point.
>>109969901W-what? Only the most expensive cpu available right now has all that? No fucking way
>>1099699559850x3d isn't the most expensiveThe 14900KS is most expensive and lacks avx512 so expensive doesn't mean good
people in the 3rd world can only afford ddr3 systems, I think ddr4 is going to last far longer than people realize, if intel was smart raptor lake next would've been an improvement over raptor lake refresh and they could use 5nm nodes for it instead of 7nm, those products would sell, there is a market for them, and then they would for amd to make the 6800x3d also on 5nm.
>>109969998force amd*
>>109969869Zen5/Zen6 are the only CPUs with real AVX512 until Nova Lake.
>>109969871>It's Jewish to want higher memory bandwidthPoorfag talk>>109969951>it would be selling like water in the desertThat's what's happening to the 5800x3d, alreadyPROTIP: the performance increase from slapping zen4 onto AM4 would be lacklustre because a good chunk of it hinges around faster RAMJust give it up, it's a 10 year old platform AND a 5800x3d is still decent.
>>109970019it's not just faster ram, am5 cpus also use far more power on avg
>>109969998They don't care about third world countries like mine anon
>>109970027You can get a Ryzen 5500 for peanuts, what are you talking about?
7950 on am47800x3d on am4amd would become the most beloved company ever, gamersnexus would make a video saying how much they love amd
>>109970019A good deal of zen4s improvement comes from clockspeed doofus
>>109970036most of the gains from 7800x3d is moving from ddr4 to ddr5.
>>109970067they could give me an identical 5800x3d only having avx512 support and I'd upgrade the cpu, regardless, the 7800x3d has 5ghz vs 4.5ghz and is built on 5nm instead of 7nm, that would be enough to upgrade imo, specially because it would mean skipping am5 entirely and waiting for am6
>>109970078>only having avx512 support>built on 5nm that's pretty much what zen4 is to zen3 lolit's zen5 that's a ground up new uarch which is why it lost its op cache that zen3/zen4 had
>>109969843KEK>>109969808>I can't buy the AOC q27g40xmn outside of USA and Australia, so it seems my best options right now are Xiaomi g pro 27qi 2026 and the msi mag 274qpf x30mv (both roughly 290€)Between those, I'd take the Xiaomi as it's a fast-IPS while the MSI is a VA panel which will exhibit ghosting in dark scenes in games/video.Although if you are just after a fast 1440p 27" model I'd recommend the Gigabyte G27Q2 which is a ~210Hz Fast-IPS for only ~€146 https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/xMxTwP/gigabyte-g27q2-270-2560-x-1440-210-hz-monitor-g27q2Other options:https://de.pcpartpicker.com/products/monitor/#D=135000,600000&sort=price&F=652780000,1651000000&P=2,17&r=384002160,256001440&page=1

>>109970216their ryzen teams are a well oiled department but radeon is and always has been a huge joke
Man it's wild glancing at this place after spending so much time in /lmg/. I don't feel so bad for missing the RTX 6000 Pro at $8,000 anymore. I'm still vramlet with my 4090 but holy shit things are grim for everyone. What a shitty timeline.
>>109970043You can overclock a Ryzen 5xxx CPU to 6GHz, will its performance be 20% better than a 5950x boosted to 4.9GHz, anon?
>>109970272stop humble bragging
>>109970272You're moaning too much about lacking the opportunity to be behind the curve in terms of LLMs. Just pay for some DeepSeek tokens.
>>109970128Thanks man. I don't really care too much about being fast, I care more about good visuals (without worrying about OLED burn-in). Mostly watching YouTube, reading, coding, playing single player games like cyberpunk or resident evil, so I won't be able to use the full 300hz anywaysIn the end it's a battle between the Xiaomis blooming/halo vs the msi black smearing.I guess I'll just get the Xiaomi, since the blooming can be stopped by changing some HDR and local dimming settings
>>109970272don't kid yourself, if you had actually needed one, you'd have bought it within 3 months of it being released. all you're feeling now is FOMO that it's gone up in price but you were never buying one in the first place

>>109970283What I'm getting at is that it's not a brag at all. 4090 is fucking shit for AI and you can't even run any decent textgen models with it.>>109970289API is bullshit and even deepseek is getting censored. You will own nothing and be happy. The writing has been on the wall for years but I don't have any money. Local is the future, assuming it doesn't all get b&.>>109970306No I needed one, I just didn't have a job. I barely managed to buy my ram this year at $3K ffs. I'd been saving up money for years only for the gpu to spike 2X the fucking price the month I was ready to buy it. Not FOMO at all because they literally priced the average person out of running local AI. Gaming is next and Nvidia will soon start telling us that we don't NEED vram. DLSS is fine and fast 8GB is good enough or some slop. Datacenters will get everything for the foreseeable future. I'm really fucking blackpilled bros.
>>109970340not exactly cheap per se, but try finding a workshop that accepts 4090 48gb upgrade orders since you own a 4090
>>109970340since you're so knowledgeable i want to ask, what kind of ai stuff can you do with 16gb of vram?>>109970349you're trying to send bro to china just to get more vram
>>109970357>send bro to chinai'm pretty sure some shops in the states offer that service
>>109970364im just joking anon, sorry if it looked like i was trying to mislead that other anon into taking a trip to china
>>109970357>16gb of vramMostly imagegen. I'd just stay away from textgen with that because the quants you can use will give you a bad impression of what's possible. Better to stick to api even if they're reading your chats/model is censored. 16gb is comfy for SDXL and Anima, but is a little rough for Krea 2. Minimax H3 would be painful but if you're willing to wait it's not bad.
>>109970372thank you anon!
>>109970372you can do text gen for fun with 16gb, mimo 2.6 distill qwen 3.6 9b is fun to use, gemma 12b q8, even qwen 3.8 27b with crazy quants could be useful
>>109970389>gemma 12b q8Gemma 12b is completely retarded and only useable for a few quick cooms. >it will give you a bad impression of what's possibleQwen doesn't respond well to quants. See above. If you have less than 24gb vram, don't bother with textgen at all. You're better off running a bigger model on ram with a good cpu before those prices explode soon too.

My PSU died and I got a new PSU but reused the cables old PSU cables. I turned on the PC and the circuit breaker in the house instantly tripped. Seems like the new PSU is fried. I remembered I had an old psu so I now have that working and all the components in the PC still work. The PSU is wrecked right? anyway to fix?
>>109970550always use the cables that come with the psu, never use different cables
>>109970550psu cables are not reusable retard. their pin out changes from maker to maker and isn't even the same between some brands.
>>109970550if the psu is new just send it back and say it came defectively and never turned on
>>109970550>The PSU is wrecked right?the circuit breaker in the house tripped to protect the electronicsso, if it works it works. Try with the cables it came with
>>109970568*within
>>109970572I tried with the cables it came with and it doesnt work, so I do think its fried.>>109970568oof, yeah I remember reading about that. such a dumb design they look the same but are different. they should at least randomize those pin connector shapes/rotations for each manufacturer so its idiot proof

>>109970584buy a new psu then, troubleshooting its issues would require specific tools n knowhow which isnt worth it. true they should standardize the pin layout and cables, its a big question mark why the industry hasnt
>>109970372Krea 2 and Minimax operate perfectly on 16gb. Suggesting SDXL and Anima to somebody with that capable of a card is just being pointlessly misleading.
>>109970638It takes 5 minutes to generate a 720p 5 sec vid on a 4090, anon. Why are you lying? Krea 2 turbo is the same speed as Anima. You seem to be under the impression that anime models and danbooru tagging are interchangeable with Krea 2 and a videogen model for some reason and thought to hide it with snark.
consumer hardware capable of doing AI stuff is only meant to be here by 2032 or so, right now you just learn how to run stuff, move to linux, understand what all knobs do, that's all

A Reddit user decided to replace their Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 XT graphics card with a Gigabyte GeForce RTX 5070 Ti. The gamer had previously upgraded from a GeForce RTX 3060 Ti based on community advice, attracted by the impressive raw compute performance per dollar.However, accumulating software issues ruined the overall experience. The owner faced poor FSR integration, slow day one driver updates, glitches in video editing software, lack of CUDA, and an inferior latency reduction system compared to Reflex 2, constantly relying on OptiScaler.The enthusiast stated that AMD hardware feels like a product for tinkerers requiring non stop adjustments. Nvidia provides a polished plug and play environment with DLSS 4.5 and DLSS 5 neural rendering directly out of the box.
>>109971427Let redditors be redditors.
>>109971427thanks claude
>>109971427>Choose AMD>Surprised by mediocre drivers.>Do video editing and don't know why Nvidia is mandatory for productivity>Use FSR at allI really don't understand why anyone would buy AMD and not go into it expecting these things. Like, you're spending $800 on a GPU and you aren't going to consider stuff like CUDA and FSR and whatever?
>>109971656Reviewers LITERALLY lie to the consumersThey do their routine benchmark, put a fps per dollar chart on the screen and tell people to buy amd. No regard for software features, game support, productivity apps, streaming etc.
>2022 me bought a PSU that could provide over 200W more than the build needed because it happened to be a good deal>want a x080/x090 class GPU now>mfw the PSU handles it just fine
>>109970694Anima and SDXL can be run on potato setups and it's misleading to suggest that's all a $1000 GPU is capable of. A 5090 is obviously faster, but these models are perfectly comfortable with 16gb of vram.
>>109971703There is no logical explanation for their behavior other than demonic possession
>>109971703>>109971969The simpler solution is just that AMD pays them, or provides more generous "Associate links" where as Nvidia doesn't.
>>109965069Underrated
>>109971717don't pair it with a 5080 or 5090 if it's not atx3.1 or it'll end up costing you an rma for a melted connector
>>109972122Likewise a 9070XT, those things draw more power than even 5080s.
RTX 5070Ti super fucking when?
>>109972143never?
>>109972138With the 9070xt at least you have the option to buy one with the old connector, 5080/90 you are stuck with the melting one.
The LG 5K mini led is the best display for desktop computers.
>>109972138My plan is to nvidia-smi limit the power draw to 288W, which is as much the conventional connector was rated for.
>>109972165It's also fucking unavailable or in stock in Europe, $1200-$1400 at most instead of $1000. Closest thing to a proper display that avoids annoying LCD Mini LED flaws and it is still problematic.
Why is QD not standard for Mini LED? Why are manufacturers only going for it on 5K screens now instead of 4K displays? Phosphors are literally twice as slow on an IPS Mini LED in input lag and response time.

>Price of used 3090s right now 1300-1400 euros>Price of new 5070 (performs the same but half the vram) 900 eurosDamn AI bros have really inflated the value of my 3090. Should I sell it and get the 5070 and use the 400 euros for other shit? Or heck a 5070ti is 1350€ and outperforms the 3090 quite well in gaming?
>>1099723293090 to 5070ti might be worthwhile if you're just gaymen

>>109972329Get a 5070 Ti and overclock the memory and enjoy your 16gb 5090.The 5070 Ti is very likely going to cost +2k next year anyways as people start fomoing into the mid range with the availability getting even worse. Especially now with the memory OC available for the masses which is godsend for AI.You'll do good getting one now while they're still relatively affordable.
>>1099724195070TI is priced so high now it just makes sense to buy the 5080. 5080 will end up selling more than it, already overtook it on steam.
are these only overseas right now? I thought the Us was supposed to get these before Q4
>>109972434Yeah I wouldn't bat an eye at 5080 going for over €3000 at some point.Could be a better choice value wise if you want to sell it in the future.

I bought a new monitor and I noticed the colors were dull and lifeless. How do I fix it without ruining anything
>>109971761I'll actually concede that Anima turbo is a thing now and I'd forgotten about that, but Anima had way higher requirements than SDXL when it released. It was one of the big criticisms. My point was that imagegen is fine and textgen isn't at 16gb vram. The nuance is that the definition of "fine" can vary. Some are willing to wait 1-2 minutes for a picture while others aren't. Some can handle 2 tokens per second on CPU/ram inference for textgen while others aren't.
>Everybody complains about PC's being unfathomably expensive in current year>I mention buying used PC hardware>*THE SILENCE IS DEAFENING*Throughout the 2010's, when I was a NEET who could barely scrape together money, I only ever bought used PC's on Craigslist. Here's what you do: Just go on your local Craigslist, go to the Computer section and type "Ryzen" and then look for any modest custom-built PC with a Ryzen cpu being listed within your budget. Don't be afraid to haggle down the price, particularly if their listing has been up for over a month. It's always worked out for me.Is this a boomer take? Am I out of touch? IS THIS ADVICE THE EQUIVALENT TO 'A FIRM HANDSHAKE'?
>>109970943Yeah this is actually what I think will happen. The internet will be filled with bots and everyone will leave to unironically touch grass. Things have a way of fixing themselves.

Question for those who have mini led monitor. Do you get a better experience with local dimming on on sdr games or does it only work on hdr games?
I did it.... I returned my TCL 27C2A... I got my $450 back... she was perfect in every way for the price, lowest input lag, best motion clarity... except the local dimming algorithm (the feature I am paying for on a mini led) was too aggressive... (and the coil whine and backlight bleed was annoying)...Wtf do I do now? Go back to my tiny 23.8" 1080p 240Hz 6 bit + FRC edge lit IPS?
>>109973212I had a great experience in Garry's Mod using SDR local dimming on my 1196 zone monitor. Arguably better than HDR depending on the algorithm.
>>109973387>'she was perfect in every way'>'except for the most important miniELD feature'
>>109973412Yeah exactly, this thought process and greeneltext rang through my head for 4 weeks until this last day where I couldn't take it anymore. What's the point of me paying for MinI LED, which costs 2X over SDR monitors? Uniformity over edge lit panels, massive brightness, HDR and contrast to rival OLED without burn in. Thank fuck I made the call just now to end it and pull out before I'd be stuck with another bastard monitor. I looked at TCL TVs too out of curiosity and couldn't help but see the same pattern in the algorithm and colors.
>>109973387that sounds really annoyingi wish i had the balls to do that to my first qdoled monitor too. in the end i was stuck with annoying coil whine for 3 years until i got my current qdoled earlier this year
Trust your instincts when buyderizing. If somenthing doesn't seem right, first you say NO. Then, you get it out of there!

>>10997241939gbps is crazy. my 5090 gets unstable at 34gbps and crashes quickly
>>109973387Are you the polandman or not, weird in that case since usd quotedcan't believe so many people are falling for the miniled meme in pcbgJBAOTV
Test
>24" for 1080p, 27" for 1440p, 32" for 4kare we sure this isn't a meme? I swear I can see the pixels on my 24" 1080p and that bumping resolution up to 1440p would be pretty noticeable
>>109973878It's a meme made by a man who obviously needs glasses, indeed. 1440p at 24" is decent.
>local MC has 5090 for $5300 in stockdo i just buy it because it won't even be available in the future and it's unclear if nvidia will even release equivalent in next-gen
>>109973917if you want one, now's your last chance
What's the odds that nvidia will cut the 90 class from their 6000 series?
Thoughts?https://scskiller.com/
>>109973878if you arent running 200% scaling and have 4x the pixels pretty much guaranteed to be pixly at close distancenot enough shit>>109973917buying gpu now is beyond cuckedhoooyl fomo>>109973984why would they do that when the next gen gpu will release big gpu again
>>109973775Indeed I am, I just quote in USD because it's easier to understand. I asked the guy nearest to me to shill me TV's and the best I was shilled for the cost of LG's new 5K Mini led was drumroll... TCL miniled televisions (we are flooded by them). I could buy a 4K OLED monitor for like $50 more right now as another option but lol 400 nits in HDR.
>>109973105that shit looks like the battle pass
>>109973834shupo shupo
>>109973984like zero. if they have to price it at $9000 to control demand, they'll do just that. the 90 cards are the best advertisement they have for geforce as a brand
>>1099738784k at 27" is incredible, 5k more so. Better pixel density than 1080p at 24" for which the pixels are noticeable for me even with my poor eyesight.
>>109974062I believe TCL's miniLED R&D center is in Poland.Their miniLED research executive is Polish.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-BsALbDlbY
>>109974155WTF, I need to turn in my review their monitor RIGHT NOW and pray they improve the monitor firmware to allow for user updates and customization to the local dimming algorithm. I would have kept this monitor if the software wasn't locked down in that category. Because while the monitor does achieve perfect blooming control under direct viewing angles, it comes at the cost of black crush and a less three dimensional image in mid to high APL scenes as mid tone elements are aggressively dimes to about 250 nits. Otherwise I can't deny for 1699 pln this is the best monitor for the price on the market right now in my opinion. I just don't understand why they keep restricting user freedom with the local dimming settings or not use integer scaling, unless enough people buy it to where it literally is not significant enough.
>>109974344Full array local dimming zones are too complicated to implement well @ a competitive price.

>>109974062the only thing miniled tv is good for is getting larger size than oled for cheaper and brightness but if you are gonna game why would you buy it literally a LG WOLED is as cheap or cheaper, or a Samsung qdoled is better for a tiny bit moreliterally zero point unless you want 75-85-98" tier sizesShilling a TCL miniled to someone is literally demonic behavior! demonic possesion tier.....>>10997434427" 4k 240hz qdoleds have been sold for like 100 euros moreidk if I can even call that cheap
