All Apple needs to do is get better at gaming and i will never buy intel/amd/nvidia again.
tempted to go 9070 XT solely because nvidia cards are so uglywat do anons
>>110087765if we are judging cards by looks, intel has the best design
Umm yes I'm still waiting, how could you tell
>>110087787>glue>>110087765get a hellhound >a bit thicker than dual slot>two 8 pins>no lgbt lights>clean designprobably the oldest in terms of design if you ignore the reaper.
>>110087765The price of a low end Nvidia card is the same as a high end AMD card. No joke you can get a Sapphire Nitro which is 10x better build quality than a Nvidia Ventus or RTX Prime.
This GPU is pretty cool looking.
>>110087816oh lol.
>>110087819but its still "high end" radeon at the end of the day, you shouldn't really spend more than $400 on an amd gpu
>>110087831AMgreeD.
>>110087864not really. you could have bought one for 660.
>>110087874AMDjeet.
>>110087887so true saar
>>110087936get his ass ronni
>>110087840Shut the fuck up
>>110088018thank you saar
>>110087816i do like the hellhound spectral, im just old as fuck i always associate radeon with sapphire
Is there any way to get everything for free? Not joking. I'm simply never going to work. So I need to figure out how to get everything I want without currency.
>>110088165obtain credit cardbuy with credit carddont pay credit cardblack people exploited this with apple card until they shut it down
>>110088085or what?
>>110088165>>110088210Goldman Sachs lost over $7 billion in consumer lending and faced heavy losses and delinquencies due to the Apple Card's high share of subprime accounts and no-fee structure
>>110088216I'll punch you when I see you IRL.
good deal
>>110088165wll they're still in business for some reason
>>110088310wicked good deal. its basically a better 9800x3d. yes its like 10% slower in gaming but its way faster in non gaming and just using the desktop in general.
>>110088165i built up a £3.5k budget working a slightly above minimum wage job for around three months.not going to lie i slogged my guts out but i don't regret it, i would've spent the time sleeping and/or masturbating anyway.
>>110088310very good
I bought a $1,500 gaming desk
>>110088349i am using a wooden door laid on two filing cabinetsbest desk i've ever had
>>110088349what's the weight capacity
>>110088357basedreminds me of my desktop that had no case & i just rested the mobo on a stack of history booksmiss that lil g like you wouldnt believe
>>110088349I'm using the same glass desk that I had since I was 12. I am 30 now.
>>110088359~300 pounds
>>110088310damn that ram on its own is like 500
>>110088349YOU BOUGHT A WAT, OMG HOW COULD YOU SPEND SO MUCH MONEY ON IT YOU COULD HAVE BOUGHT A SWITCH OR PS5
im pulling a forrest gump. im going to give everything i own away and just start walking. not even joking either. 26 and tired of it all. just gonna walk.
>>110087936Based antisemite
>>110088386tells you how much the rest is worth
>>110088386its hynix a-die ram or if you are lucky dual rank hynix in 32gb. these are like $1000.
>>110088415how did you know?
Americans are so lucky for having micro center
>>110088454microcenter is too far out. best buy is better, also they price match microcenter like they used to price match circuit city.
whats a good 1440p 27" 240hz gaming monitor? I wfh so I need something that's good for coding and gooning
>>110088454country's too big, the nearest one is 230 miles from me and they don't ship the good deals
>>110088336That's a lotta cope in one sentence
>>110088489you get 24 actual cores. no hyperthreading inflating the number. amd gives you only 8.
>>110088418The board is good as a paperweight and the CPU can be made into a sick keychain
I miss having an ROG motherboard. I want to be a citizen of the Republic of Gamers again
>>110088517any wifi7 board is good270k plus is like the new i7 2600k
>>110088521>is like the new i7 2600k14900k already occupies that spot

the ultra 270k plus lives up to it's name, it's ULTRA, 270k which is more than 240k (pure gold), and Plus, meaning it affirms your gender no matter what.
>>110088549buying intel today is like buying fx back in the day when sand bridge already existed.
>>1100885214750k is the new i7 2600k
>>110087765arent they going to make a new card any day now isnt this shit coming up on 2 years old
>they're finally selling the solid side panel for my caseFUCK YES NO MORE GLASS NO MORE LIGHTS KEEPING ME AWAKE AT NIGHT
>>110088572yes. RDNA2 -> RDNA3 was just 2 years. flagship latter is 50% faster than last flagship.
my plan is buying am4 rn and use that thing for years until am6 comes out and ddr6 prices go down and buying something high end if my plan to make money with my am4 system works out
>>110088585just use openrgb to turn them off
>>11008853014900K = P4ryzen x800x3d = AthlonCore ultra 200 = FXZen6/novalake = core 2 duoZen7 = sandy bridge
>>110088564buying intel today is like buying the ryzen 1600af
what actually happened to intel?
>>110088637they were feeling nostalgic for the pentium 4 back in 2022
>>110088637amd used 1% of their power
When will amd gpus stop being shite
>>110088652Maybe next gen?They seem to have suckered enough people into buying 90XX series to price gouge without much consequence, so it's probably pretty profitable to make an actual competitor next gen.
>>110088637indians
>>110088637they stagnated after skylake around 2015~ryzen was shit until chiplets that wasnt until 3rd gen
>>110088652Real talk why do you guys post this shit? Nvidia has worse driver problems today. I am gonna smack the shit outta you nigga.
>>1100886621000 and 2000 took workstations from intel3000 and 5000 took gaming from intel
>>110088652Rdna5Maybe
>>110088652When will 5070ti not shit the bed watching Youtube?
>>110088667Why is it wrong that people want Nvidia to have some competition?
>>110088684After its discontinued before the 5080.
>>110088652Never nigga, radeon is literally an afterthought for AMD their only priority for gaming is Sony and Xbox. It’s telling that the only RDNA 5 gpu releasing next year is the one the ps6/helix will release with and not the flagship AT0. They even know Novideo isnt releasing rubin till 2028 but they still won’t put out something to hold the performance crown until jensen announces his next grift.
>>110088691Hey pieboy, it's a PCI-Express device. Same as your NVME & Network Card. You act like its some black magic shit but It's a dumb as fuck device thats broken as shit until you tell it what to do. You install the OS on a SSD, you give the network card your DNS and all that shit, your GPU is no different from being retarded as you.

>>110088732Nigga there are millions of 240hz 1440p 27” ips panels, just pick one with good color calibration out of the box like the gigashyte m27q2 qd
>>110088734
>>110088637Intel underestimated the importance of designing power efficient processors for smartphones and modern laptops.That cost them Apple’s MacBook business, Apple also poached a decent amount of Intel’s elite chip designers.Intel’s foundry business also decided to be arrogant retards, and thought they could economically produce advanced nodes (10 & 7nm process) without relying on EUV manufacturing technology.This little misadventure set the company back by a decade or more.Intel is still in the process of recovering from that terrible bet.Intel also completely missed out on AI research driven GPU demand because they arrogantly dismissed the value of investing artificial intelligence & machine learning.There’s been a massive brain drain at Intel, any hyperscaler that designs their own CPUs will have a few ex-Intel chip designers in their team.
>>110088732>note down any potential insecurity>post a purposely reductive, billigerent statement on it and make sure it involves two constantly warring parties one problem is how japs worship european features. simply post 'why do anime characters look white' and watch 4 takashis fight with 5 kims and 6 brandonsfind good material, ask a seemingly stupid question and watch them act out on their insecurities. use a proxy to fan the flames too

>>110088720Well, if it's so easy AMD should have no issue competing and offering a card that can do what Nvidia does. Rather than selling cope about "much raster purity".

>>110088895Yes. Dyke
>>110088918270k is only mildly more power hungry, they use tsmc fab on a part of itIts much better than 8 core amd on multicore workloads, and pretty good for gaming. Outside of bundles the best option for higher cost may be going am5 mobo, buying 32gb ddr5 separately and getting a zen6 cpu with 12 cores that launch in 2027

>>110088924These OLED monitors have non-standard subpixel layout that messes with text rendering, because the OS is expecting the monitor to have the typical RGB subpixels.Someone here just told you they had to return their OLED monitor for this reason.

>>110089033Black people don't own PCs they have iPhones and PlayStations. Literally.
>>110089047Wrong.There’s a reason why all the major OLED panel manufacturers have been switching to (stripe) RGB subpixels for their next generation models.Microsoft hasn’t updated their cleartype feature to accommodate these proprietary subpixel designs.Go ahead and buy a 1440p OLED for coding.
>>110089033You probably want a custom graphic card get a pny 5070 ti (2slot), and a good am5 board. Get a tiny glass case for it , and put rhinestones with glue on the plastic bits so it shiney like pic related.
>>110089006based valuechad
>>110089033>Why is this the black people combo? Asking for a friendBecause it is logistically the best value. I kid you not the "black person build" is the most rational and sane build there is...The absolute state of the pc market.
>>110089109In that case wouldn't an am4 build be the best value one? A 5060ti 16gb can't take advantage of an am5 pc, right? In what sense is this one the logically best value build?
>>110089140nooo a pcie4 board sucks with a x8 pcie5 capable 5060 ti you get full bandwidth It the dirty secret of 5060s is that they only are x8 if you don't read the specs That's why I got a pcie5 board and a 5070 ti

>>110089207I like to shove mine in my ass. I'll be a true android one day.
>>110089184I'm watching a benchmark and there's only a 1fps difference in average fps and about 10 fps in the lowest lows between am4 and am5 so it can't be that bad although I do agree am5 is more future proof since you could just sell the 5060ti for something better and am5 wouldn't hold the new more powerful gpu back
How can I use AI to make a ton of money? I'm talking right now. From $0.
>>110089247take upscaled pictures of your asshole and sell the pattern as luxury wallpaper to richfags
>>110089230they coming out with newer processors for amd, so you would buy a cheapo am5 cpu and then upgrade laterI would get a board with a single pcie5 x16 slot and if you get a 5060 ti it goes down to x8 because it electrically a x8 card, unlike the 5070s and 5080s which are x16s So It wouldn''t hurt to go for a 5070 ti and spend more just because it would make you cooler and less poor looking.
>>1100892309800x3d is 30% better than the 5800x3d in cpu bound scenarios which will show up more in future when you upgrade to a faster gpu

what is mini led exactly? should you get a mini led ips if you wanna use hdr?
>>110089857If it works it worksyou mostly want to upgrade bios to latest versionThe degradation is more like the mobo burns the cpu and its a whole rma process, but its rare and difficult to replicate
>>110090170https://www.rtings.com/tv/learn/what-is-mini-ledEssentially breaking up the backlight into zones that can be individually lit or turned off to improve contrast, the more zones the better. Low Zone around around ~1152 or less result in blooming where bright areas have their illumination bleed over into adjacent areas. They can only show HDR in the sense that they can get bright enough to not clip details in super high-brightness specular highlights but they still will be worse for HDR than OLED.OLED is like having a Mini-LED Zone for every single pixel (remember above how I mentioned moar is better). OLED is what Mini-LEDs wants to be but can't because of how expensive it'd be.
>>110090215okay thank you i read that hdr is actually very badly implemented in most games but you're making it sound like mini led is worth getting even if you're not gonna use hdr
>>110090224Its more that you dont want to use display technology with backlight and 1:1000 contrast ratios
>>110090215>OLED is like having a Mini-LED Zone for every single pixelExcept the backlight is very dim, since turning it up will damage the pixel. No OLED monitor does more than 400nits brightness on HDR and most are sub 150nits at the brightest.

this wont fit, why
>>110090286tried loosening the screw, and now it goes in easily. It’s okay, right
>>110090253The poor edge uniformity/vignetting even when viewed dead center & Undefeatable Convex Power Control that Dell slaps on all their OLED Monitors is a deal breaker especially since Tim says it's worse on these new RGB WOLEDs than the vanilla WOLEDs & QD-OLEDs.Also Vincent says that off-axis the panel tinting is very noticeable:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qju6127G2A&t=628sThis is super disappointing since removing the White Subpixel by all accounts has finally fixed the grey banding plaguing LG OLEDs.There is always something preventing pristine panels from coming out from LG.

>>110092893Not really. It's only ever been a tiny amount of cases, and really only with 5090s.I think more 9070XTs have gone up in flames than 5080s at this point. And even then we're talking a very small number of cards, and usually some degree of user error.

I have a 4060 Ti 8GB and I'm tempted to upgrade. My options are the 5070 non-Ti or the 9070 XT, as both are on the same price range in my country. AMD seems to be the best option cost-wise, but the power draw is absurd. I just want to upgrade to be more future-proof before GPUs get prohibitively expensive. The only game I'm really anticipating is the last part of Final Fantasy 7 Remake. I have a 650W power supply, so I think I should upgrade it regardless of which GPU I pick. Which card would anons choose?
>>110093912last chopper out of nam is getting the microcenter 270k plus bundle
>>110094145You know you can undervolt right? Not even undervolt AMD has a power limit slider you just drag it to negative.
>>110094145im trying to make the same choice myself, still cant decide. anything below a 5070 ti doesnt seem worth it as its markedly worse than a 9070 xt however the temptation to brainlessly lock into nvidia and never have to tinker is quite strong. its frustrating as i have every single part ready to go save for the gpu because im legitimately 50/50 about this.
>>1100941455070>>1100941979070xt
>>110094197>>110094145you have to be retarded to consider the 5070 its a buggy piece of shit on both windows & linux the drivers dont work. amd drivers are leaps and bounds ahead like theres no shader stutter at all on nvidia its massive and annoying and the cpu bottleneck is obvious.
>>110094145Revelation is still using UE4. I wouldn't upgrade anything for it.You even said it yourself, anything above a 70 series card is just a ridiculous oversized power drain and potential fire hazard.
>>110094217>>110094197Is a 9070XT not below a 5070Ti?
>>110094238i assume so but a ti is also about 30% more expensive where i live

And I just watched a video and some guy said you need to buy a 240Hz minimum otherwise content looks fucking shit because if you buy 165Hz or shit like that the refresh rate is all fucked up because it's not divisible by 24 or 60 like 240Hz is.
>>110094362Your so mad
>>110094181I guess that's an option, but then would I lose performance? The main selling point of this card is its performance/dollar, or am I wrong?>>110094223>shader stutter and cpu bottleneckBut that's only on LInux right? Anyway, I always see people writing that AMD drivers are shit or that NVIDIA drivers are shit, but my brother has one RX 6600 and I have the 4060, and everything just works for both of us, and it has been working for a few years. No issues whatsoever.>>110094224I think you're right, I'm just afraid of regretting not upgrading now.
>>110094376You made me do it

hi all - just a quick one, monitor died today, absolute workhorse for a decadei want a 4k monitor with decently high refresh rates (old was 60 and theres some games id like to drop settings and have 144 or even 240 if possible) a lot of oled monitors are recommended, but since i also do 8 hours of bullshit admin excel email work each day and then run the monitor for a further 5/6 hours at night, it seems like OLED would be pretty bad right?so mini led? any recs?wait.tm is not really an option for me atp i need a monitor within a week
>>110094693S95f or s95h or s99h Samsung tv 55" on discount it costs as much as a high end 32" qdoled If you need only text clarity I guess buy a 165-180hz 27" 5k LCD because wagies don't deserve good picture quality anywayIf you need good text clarity OLED and 240hz and can only cope with 32/27 I guess buy the new Asus rgb stripe oleds (pg32ucwm/pg27ucwm) but the tv will just shit on them for anything else , but it will have woled downsides
>>110094785i dont really have room on my desk for a 55 inch tv anyway tbfi'd like it to be sharp for text yeah but also for games. oled seems good for picture in general but the burn in concerned me for the amount of usage i put through it.pretty tempted by the ASUS ROG Swift PG32UCDM3 from reviews - but you've put ucwm, is that an upcoming one?

Hey frens, Ive been looking to buy a new desktop PC, mainly for lightweight gaming, 3d modeling + CAD, video editing/production, music production maybe Youtube videosI wonder if i should spend 4400$ CAD (3108$ USD) or is that overkill? I havent built a computer since 2007, 2004 before that it seems now the market is messed up and prebuilts are cheaper than self builds.. these are the specs, is this overkill or is there another build anyone would recommend?

>>110094867Buy a 5090 pre built on a payment planYou will end up making money or not losing any money still probably That's how bad things are If they cost the same as a 5090 stand alone costs
>>110094867You need more RAM 64GB is minimum for those use cases, take it from someone doing that shit with 32GB and regretting it. Really you'd be better off with another 2TB SSD or a 4TB one too. The 270K will help with that as it can use all the extra cores.
>>11009487050cm is very closeI can see fringing clearly at that distance and further Pg32ucdm3 will be better in everything except subpixel structure Depends on how annoying you think fringing is and if it will fuck up your eyesIt will be worse than LCD 4kBut tim from hwub uses a 4k 32 qdoled just fine for productivity....Either you will think it's fine or it will rape your eyes I haven't seen THAT model irl so I can't really tell how it will be with the new coating and everything If you can buy both and return the worse one I mean it's an option
>>110094867>3d modeling + CADCAD is so vague. You can do the floorplans of any building in the world on a $500 pc.
>>110094898>>110094907thanks for the quick responsesOkay a prebuilt 5090 comes with a Intel Core Ultra 9 285K, does have 64 gig of ram storage is still 2TB but thats easy to upgrade is the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K comparable with the Intel Core Ultra 7 270K Plus they have slight differences I bought a new laptop instead, ill wait maybe till Christmas to buy a desktop, dont want to spend 4 when i should have waited and spent 8 thousand, I want to be satisfied its about 8500$ so ill keep saving
>>110087826Never seen a GPU with a fan like that on the back, wonder what the purpose is.
>>110094994>I bought a new laptop insteadyou whatlaptops are for traveling professionals. They have them not because they prefer them, but because they travel.
>>110094994Those can still be had for 7k here,a while ago they were 6kPrices are going upWithout discounts we are talking 8-10kSaving won't outpace the increase Better to just payment plan it up asap cause things are fucked
can i build a pc for under $1,000 that is better than my m3 macbook pro? not baiting
>>110094994if you don't mind waiting or spending you may as well wait until next year when Nova Lake launches which will put you on the latest gen and top of the line. You will also benefit from cheaper upgrades since it's going to be supported for many generations. So if there's no rush or price concerns you might be the only person on the planet where it makes sense to actually wait.
