>have shitty years old TCL tv that i use as a monitor
>upgrade to an oled tv
>now my backup computer that i use as a jellyfin server doesnt display correctly
its set to 1080p but its zoomed in i can barely see the taskbar. i dont know how to fix it ive tried all the expected fixes like changing the tvs settings and changing settings in the operating system. my main machine that displays correctly on the new tv uses windows 10 but the secondary machine that has issues is using linux mint.

>no cuck shit in the OP
what even is the point?

should i get a 270k plus now or wait for nova lake's equivalent ?

>>110276949
you should wait for zen 6

>>110276955
when is it to be released?

>>110276949
AM5 is supported up until 2029, so you won't even need to change motherboards. Wait for Zen 6/7 and get an AM5 mobo.

I want a pc that can play most games at 1080/144 or if its a story heavy game 4k/60
The only pc part thats still salvagable is my old ram 2 16gb DDR4 sticks everything else needs to be replaced
I want a pc that is gonna be okay for the next 5 years or so but honestly i cant think of many modern games to play
The only games i look forward to play on pc are MGSV because im looking forward to S ranking every mission with better load times than on ps4 and Bannerlord with some mods to push troop limit to 5k
Deus EX mankind divided is another game i wann a play but thats also ancient
Kingdom Come 2 and Cyperpunk are the only big games i can think of that interest me that i need to look out for

do you think upgrading from a 7600 to a 7800x3d is a good idea for black friday or should i wait until after zen6 is announced and they start clearing out old stock?

Jensen could win my sympathy by guaranteeing a future where pc building still exists

>>110277782
probably not a good idea unless there's a particular game you desperately need x3d for

lmao what the fuck
I stopped paying attention to PCs 5 years ago the moment I stopped caring about vidyagaems and got myself a laptop. Today I got an ad for a 5090 and lmao what the fuck. I remember the 480 housefires, the jet engine cooling they required, and the power draw which required a nuclear reactor, but they were no where near this expensive.
The studio I just purchased 20 minutes away from a ski resort, in a building with its own onsen, heated swimming pool, and a gym costs less than half of this piece of shit.
Fuck me it was fun when you got to unlock the two extra cores from a Phenom 555 BE which essentially turned it into a 955, pairing it with a 5770 and being happy with things at 1080p.

Thanks for reading my blog.

I just did that upgrade and I'd say it's worth it. I play at 4K but I still see benefits from X3D in games like cyberpunk with lots of NPCs or battlefield 6 at dlss performance/ultra performance where you're pushing super high fps. I've also noticed it doesn't get as hot as the 7600 so it runs way quieter. Apparently the tighter voltages keep it cooler according to Gemini. Monster CPU just get it if you've find a good deal because it'll last for ages.

Thinking of getting a good quality PSU, a mATX case for the gpu and one of those pcie to usb4 thingies for setting up gpus since i think buying a whole egpu enclosure would be a waste of money.
Its this a good plan or should i look into properly setting up a pc

I wish I could sell my body to straight up build a new PC right now. It's crippling that I know I'll never get to freshly build a complete PC ever again in my lifetime.

There's no class of computer users that need pc's for basic work anymore. People making triple digit incomes are doing work on cromebooks without any problems where before they would get angry when the new office computer went up in price.

The schools that needed computer labs are switching over to whatever cloud service will take them and even then schools in the U.S. have stopped giving a fuck about educating students on tech literacy at all. They're teaching classes using speech to text writing on their essays and learning how to talk to the "pewter" to get it to do what the teacher says.

Damn actually I should sell my frieren and get a new 5080, that'd be hilarious because I didn't wanna pay extra for the 5080 when buying the 5070ti at 1180 vs ~1700 a month ago. Now I could potentially do a free upgrade

Is 9070 the only worthwhile purchase right now? I am looking at Nvidia's prices and it is just stupid.

Im at such a weird spot with my 2080, its just barely not good enough to be completely comfy with, but serviceable enought to run most things I wanna play, and to get a sizeable upgrade that feels worth it Ive gotta spend a good bunch

>>110282180
it's always risky waiting for a new intel generation
13th/14th gen raptorlake had the degradation issue and arrowlake was initially hyped up to be a zen4 killer but it regressed in performance from 14th gen

>>110282926
Used 3080Ti.

But why do you want Nvidia? Their drivers are broken doesn't matter what version number you use.

How did I did? All that's missing is a GPU. The only downside is that the system is pcie 3, so I'm limited by my options. MB also only has one x16 slot and dual channel RAM, so I can't use it as a sensible budget local AI rig.

>>110282343
probably a shitty asrock bios that killed it, i've heard stories of them frying 9800X3D's as well due to improper voltage settings from the factory.

>>110283228
I could've gotten a newer platform with more robust hardware similarly cheap if I had decided to buy someone's old gayming PC, but the majority of local listings are overpriced for dust/cum covered pre 8th gen systems.

At least with this configuration, everything works, and I know it hasn't been jizzed on. Besides, the impression I get from local marketplace listings is that everyone's trying to scam one another.

>>110283237
I wouldn't pay $400 for a 4070ti. Those were the turd stinkers that had to be replaced with the supers because they were so cucker

>>110283277
Ti super is a different card bri

>>110283271
ASRock bios updates are placebo
Their hardware is inherently flawed and kills CPUs

>>110283273
The 460w psu will limit your choice of GPU and Dell motherboards tend to have underbuilt vrms which will cause CPU throttling if you were to unlock the power limits and run the 9700 at 4.5ghz flat under all core loads

>>110283237
never buy used GPU's from rando's since you'll probably get scammed, if it's a high-end GPU it will 100% be a card with no GPU core and memory chips on it. that's a very popular scam atm. i would avoid it because you don't know what refurb means. maybe it was a perfectly functioning card and they swapped the paste/pads, but more likely it was a dead card that was revived by cooking it (reflow), which is a repair that always fails again within six months (reball is proper repair, but its too expensive for anything but the 4090/5080/5090 etc). or they replaced a faulty memory chip(s) but again they likely exposed the board to a lot of heat. one way to tell if a card got cooked is to look at the color of the edge of the PCB and/or the sticker the factory puts above the PCI-e slot. if either of them have a brown/dark tint to them that means the card got cooked and you should avoid it like the plague. if it's pure white / beige clean looking then it's a good sign, but still not a guarantee that retard took a soldering iron to the board.

used GPU's are very risky in this market, i wouldn't do it unless it's like a local sale where you can physically inspect the card and test it before buying. like i don't want to doom too hard but it really is scam central out there. if you are gonna bite, make sure you have a guaranteed way to get your money back in case of a scam or a card that was fried as a temporary fix.

I booted
Got into the BMC through network
Updated the bios and firmware
CPU detected
Changed the bios setting so it now detects my drives

And it only detected 2/8 RAM sticks... It's an AMD system
It must've gotten screwed on too tight from the CPU cooler
that thing took like 2hrs to screw on holy shit

Cortisol levels - very high

Can I retest without the CPU cooler attached or am I gonna fry it?

Thanks for the info about referbs. I figured that was more or less the exact case but I don't have any experience buying refurbished cards.
I would never consider buying a used loose card. That just sounds like begging it get scammed
Guess I'll poke around and see if I can get lucky for black Friday or give up and replace my POS 6600 with a 9070

>>110283405
Doesn't happen on my machine

>>110283373
no point in testing without a cooler because it will overheat within seconds. it's not gonna die because of internal thermal protections but it'll throttle massively and when that inevitably fails to reduce temps it will shut the pc down. if you have only partial memory detection you need to start swapping sticks and start with the most basic two stick setups to see which sticks work and which don't. if all of them work as part of a dual channel setup then at least you know the memory sticks aren't faulty.

markets just terrible right now. can't even get your card fixed by a proper tech because all the good ones who know what they're doing are overworked fixing AI cards, which cost ten times as much so they make more money per repair. as a result they have no time left to work on normie cards. my favorite repair guy already stopped servicing anything below the RTX 5080. he also told me that he gets countless people asking him to fix their used 5090's, but when he tells them to look at the side to see if there's actually chips on the board they go like "oh shit i got scammed". chinks are even creating fake chips to put on the board to get around this kind of inspection.
