Who keeps putting all these asian girls in graphics cards
Me
Can I have one?
I don't know but I must collect all asian girls inside computer shit.
I bet a PSU gf would be thicc
Do you have any more?
Hey gurl, last time we met we clicked, how about we double click?
Haha
She's a logitech mouse she will start double clicking after 2 months whether you want her to or not.

Dunno but I've gotten a 3 day ban once for posting that same exact image. RIP OP see you in 3 days buddy.
That's what I wanna know

you're a moron, 12GB is overkill for that card.
Are you fricking moronic?
you did fine
3060 is a good card
You can find 6700XT for same price and it's much faster with better drivers actually thanks to xbox rdna2
You fricked up, the Ti version is worth a buy and nothing else
>with better drivers
Pff hahaha
hahaha
>tfw no gpu gf
>tfw no gpu AND no gf
literally average price you mongol
the 4000 series is out next month and you went and paid top dollar for an end of life card.
>next month
Wrong. Only 3090 is getting a paper release. 3080 will be later this fall, 3070 likely dec / 2023, 3060 would be well into 2023.
the 4060 will be out next year and intel gpus are nowhere to be seen, the 3000s will probably rise in price
homie, Nvidia already delayed the 4000 series again because of supply issues and a overflowing used GPU market.
>get told to wait
>new series comes out
>sold out, prices go up
>get to told to wait
>becomes available, prices down
>told to wait, new series coming out
etc.
I hate wait gays but you seriously bought at the worst time the entire 3000 series will be dirt cheap by the end of the year when the 4000 series drops
Will they really be dirt cheap? The 2000 series is still relatively pricey? A 2060 would've cost me $300-$350 new.
This is speculation but the 4000 series will be oversaturated causing the previous series to decrease by more than previous releases.
The 2000 series isnt lower than expected because it was still in high demand due to the 3000 series being relatively unobtainable to most.
just wait for the 4000 idiot
>60 series card for more than 250
you got israeliteed pretty hard
>Have been waiting for almost a whole decade
>Still no card to replace 1050 ti
fer shame
reminder that the RX580 still plays new games 1080p 60 fps and it is over five years old and it cost $229 on release
Quite badly but you should stop thinking about that and enjoy playing some games
At 1080p you're set for the full (console) gen, assuming no ray tracing. Above that res it's not a good card but yeah, 1080p you're sailing. Nvidia are laughing in our faces by giving it 12GB VRAM when it will never be utilised properly, meanwhile gimping RTX 3070 with 8GB VRAM. Even RTX 3080 is gimped at 10GB VRAM if you want to do 4K gaming with it, not future proof at all.
I think 4K is overrated. Its nice on a 50"+ TV but on a 22" monitor I doesn't make the same difference.
Basically
pixel density>resolution
I recently got a 2k 32" monitor and I genuinely can't imagine a practical purpose I'd need it to be 4k for. Maybe if you need it for productive tasks and you actually need the real state, but anything outside that seems like a complete waste for gayming both in terms of cost and performance. I reckon 4k is only really worth it for TVs if you're sitting further away than you ever would from a monitor, and they're massive >50".
4K is overrated for monitors but not TV. I had and returned a 4k monitor. Now I'm running 2 1080p and 1 1440p and its perfect.
Just upgraded to a 3070 from a 1060 6gb

are you moronic?
Is it worth getting a 90% ex-mining 1070 for $183?
no, better to hit up a friend or smth for a used gpu
All my friends use gaming laptops and/or consoles.
What games do you 'actually' play.
Currently? Sunbreak
Could be worse. You could have bought it last November for $700 or something
That's dumb
I have a laptop with a 3050ti that I got for free
Imagine being stupid and paying
Is ryzen 5600x for $200 a good deal?
So i get the 2060 super 8gb or 3060 12gb? the 3060 is just a bit more expensive than 2060 super in my shithole right now
*should
Guys please help
if its just a bit more expensive get the 3060 obviously you stupid moron
But the 2060 super is Asus ROG Strix meanwhile the 3060 is a cheap taiwain brand named Galax
find reviews of the galax card, check out what forum users are saying, etc
Its the cheapest 3060, pretty average all around, cheap fans, build quality is so so. The Asus 2060 super had much better build quality
https://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/asus_geforce_rtx_2060_super_strix_review,24.html
https://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/galax-geforce-rtx-3060-ex-white-12g-review,1.html
2060 super is low enough that it's not really worth it for how much use time you're missing out on before games increase graphics demand and blow it out. Aim for a used 2080 instead if you're going for 20 series.
The brand new asus 2060 super ROG Strix is only 300 bucks right now though
300 is too high for a 2060 that's 3 years old.
Bro almost all GPUs are cheap chink shit. What really matters is the warranty that either they as manufacturers offer directly, or the one provided by your retailer.
My 3060 is Palit and it's been just fine so far. Granted I've only had it for a couple months but up to now I don't have complaints, it cools fine, it's not overly noisy, etc. On top of that I have a 1 year warranty from my retailer which on paper isn't as good to what some manufacturers offer but good luck actually getting one of em to accept your RMA if you live in a monkey country like I do.
I bought a 3060ti for $400 so you got hosed, just not that bad like those moron who paid $2000 for one last year
>paying $400 for a $200 card
you sure showed them
Its MSRP is $399, chodethroat.
why would it be a $200 card? where the frick do you morons just get these numbers from? Take your meds jesus
>a $200 card
sure if you're buying it from a miner
>$200
You Black folk are literally sitting at a computer and can't spend 30 seconds on a google search to avoid looking like a /misc/tier moron?
This image is proof that 2016 changed everybody, because this guy is a homosexual now.
Not that bad. a 1060 3gb is a shitty overpriced gpu already. The 3060 should cost 299 max but we are in israeliteish times.
you got scammed, that's the price of a 3060 Ti
Why does people buying expensive video card/ CPU when not even AAA games need those powah anyway?
Because I want decent shit even if I'm spending all my time playing FF14 and emulating PS2 horror games
>"well my 1650 still plays shit fine at 1080p at 30fps hurr"
Those Black folk should be lined up and shot along with people who own an Xbox
reeee you shoved snow in my yard >:(
If you read up on the case, yes, that day, they threw their snow onto his yard after he had cleaned his, but there were months and months previously were they did shit to frick with him. They were complete buttholes and even the neighbors said afterwards that they were out of line. As far as I'm concerned, they had it coming, at least being shot, maybe not dying. Also they had a 16 year old autistic kid who I'm sure is posting here now.
yeah dude was a vet too wasn't he? real world example of frick around find out
Yeah he was in like two branches and the reserves but never saw combat, so its not a case of him snapping and reliving the First Gulf War or anything. Also the people he killed had a funny name
>"“The Goys were shoveling the snow from their parking spots, shoveling the snow across the road, and throwing the snow onto Spaide’s property,” Stefanie Salavantis, the Luzerne County district attorney, and Dale Binker, the Plains Township police chief, said in a statement."
oh no, not our actual goys!
NOT OUR PRECIOUS GOYIM
In what universe are you living on
>How bad did I get hosed?
All of my purchases over $300 in the last 5 years have only gone up in value. Maybe it's time you stopped playing video games and picked a money making hobby.
Do you notice a big improvement? My 1060 is still kicking but I'd like to upgrade to a 3060 in the next year.
I got prebuilt with ryzen 5 5600x and 3070 for 1400
My condolences
It will be fine for playing fightcade, fightan, ps4 era games, elden ring, and sf6
I have 1080p monitor and a 4k monitor and debating which one to use with this 3070.
that's my same setup but it only costed me $1100 because I bought the parts and built it myself
not the anon you're replying to but while thats all fine and good the 1100 only happens if you get a 3070 for a good price which hasnt been possible for a long time at least not effortlessly. Unless you buy ex-mining cards. Lets be honest most people dont know enough about tech to replace thermal pads
How did you find 3070 that cheap?
best buy had them on stock last month
Got a brand new 3080 for 590$. I was going to wait but this was too good of a deal. Finally I can reach 4K120 way more easily.
I Shoulda checked the catalog before making a thread but what do you guys think? Did I mess up by settling? Upgrading from a 970M
the 3070 is only slightly more powerful than the 3060 Ti, they're basically the same shit, 3080 and onwards is where the gap widens by a large margin
4k 60 fps is barely a thing anon
>tfw GTX 1070
Mogged by ps5
In bizarro universe maybe
I'm sorry anon but he's right, it's time to upgrade
What's the point of lying on the internet?
you can cope all you want but it doesn't change reality
Please tell me you don't actually believe this when this console cannot break 30 frames still?
you're still stuck in the last generation
Death Stranding unironically looks better on my 1070 lmfao
go easy on that copium
Why would I copium about a shitty machine running a 3 year old game at 60 frames with a reduced library, shit hardware, overpriced games, no mod access and no gaems?
Even a 980 has more games than a piss5
>shit hardware
says the guy with a 1070 kek
>PCs consist of only a graphics card
I pity your intellect
there's a 99% chance that the rest of your rig is also outdated trash
If its trash then why can I run most modern games at high/60/1080p?
Sorry I don't CONSOOM overpriced grafex cards or mining equipment lol
Btw I wanted to add I PLAY videogames, I don't consume overpriced graphics cards like mongoloids like
to flex them on an anonymous forum and feel superior, I literally play videogames and that's something you people ITT don't lol
>p-people with better cards than mine don't play video games!
we've reached maximum levels of cope
I run shit at ultra/high at 1440p 144hz and I also have two 1080p monitors in addition to my main 1440p. Yes, there's a huge difference in quality, maybe you accept that from yourself but I do not. I accept only elegance.
>this game looks better on my outdated card than on a current gen console
How can one person be so delusional
he probably spends all his day watching streamers playing and now he thinks he has the same pc as them lol
1070 is still a good value card....but a ps5 is around a 2070
Got two builds, one with a 970 and one with a 1080. The 1080 is too good to justify replacing, and I'm playing 1440p 144hz. The 1080 was a card ahead of its time. The 970 though, needs to be taken behind the shed. If you were me, would you wait for a 4080?
Don't buy that shit buy the cheap wave of 30 series cards.
So you recommend waiting and picking up a cheap 3080 or around there? I'm getting the itch to upgrade, but I'll try and hold.
It's up to you but the 40 series cards aren't worth unless you literally have money to burn and eant better frames for rtx
That's pretty clear, cheers anon!
What should I replace my 2070 super for?
Why would you replace what is still a very powerful card, more powerful than 90% of gaming PCs according to Steam?
If you just want to spend money find something you actually need.
Hmm. Thanks anon, I guess you are right. It's not like these cards are going to run out any time soon, right? I guess I don't really need a new one.
worth getting an rx 6700xt for a linux/windows gaming dual boot?
>1070 started artifacting so i had to buy a new GPU 4 months ago

Frick this shit
Good CPUs and PSUs are the least of your concerns these days. 5600X is more than enough for games while being dirt cheap for what how it performs, and my Seasonic GX Gold 850W is going for $180 on amazon right now. Both things combined don't even reach the price of a top shelf GPU.
RTX 3060Ti is $399.99 at bestbuy
The 1060 would have cost in the $200 range. You payed 100 more, but then again we'll never see any gpu prices in the $200s anymore with this fricked up economy.
>12gb
>3060
why? there's nothing that a 3060 can run that needs 12gb.
I've done some tests for shits and giggles on mine and RE2R gets up to a good 11GB usage with everything maxed out + memetracing at 2K. As you may imagine the fps does leave a lot to be desired, but it can get pretty up there.
But for the vast majority of games? Yeah you probably won't get much mileage out of the 12GB. I reckon it's more suited for productive tasks like 3D modeling and shit than it is for gaming.
Building a PC, these are the parts I picked out; I'm hoping for some feedback.

C2 from Code Gayass
Thank you but no, after sitting through SEED/SEED Destiny and Fafner I cannot watch that dude's character designs anymore it was like the Shoah Part 2.
Hirai had nothing to do with that series. Character Design is by CLAMP and Takahiro Kimura
Im fricking moronic then, but those crushed faces and weird eyes give me far more of a SEED vibe than they do a Chobits one
Is Chobits the only anime you have ever watched or something?
I only really watch mecha and rom coms like Toradora, Kimi ni Todoke, Your Name. And some horror like Another. Ask me about Dunbine and Gunbuster and we can have a 3 hour long conversation but I cant even tell you about Cowboy Bebop, as mainstream as it is without talking about Mushroom Samba and the one with the trucker woman. And when the garbage became a life form.
Code Geass is a mecha series
It looked like a magical boy political thriller to me.
All of the political battles end in mecha battles.
Ill give it a go fren
Good luck. You'll be watching a cornerstone of Ganker and /m/ history.
based k120 chad, but you should go ask Ganker they'll give you way better feedback
>4000 series around the corner
>buys a low range gpu
oH NOOOOOOOOOO ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK
???? the 3060 is in no way a low range card, what are you talking about
i'm sorry eurotrash but if your pc can't pull off consistent 70+ fps on 4k you're a poorgay, simple as. Maybe find another hobby more suited to your race like kicking a ball of rubber around a field? ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK
It technically is, yes. 3060 is the absolute lowest budget option this generation if we were in a normal non-scalped GPU market.
>can run most games at 60 fps just fine

4000 series is rumored to be fermi all over again
I'm still running a GTX 1070 and thought it was fine until I upgraded to an ultra widescreen 3440 x 1440 monitor a month ago.
Just how big of an improvement would something like a 3070 be?
You couldn't spend a $100 more for a 3070? I bought my 3080 for $700. You upgrade a graphics card every 5-10 years, treat yourself out man.
3070 and 3070ti are skip tier cards due to having 8gb of VRAM and a not so impressive performance advantage over 3060ti. You either go for 3060ti or 3080.
>finish ordering my 3070 ti
>close window
>open 4chin
>read this
desu...............
if it's your first card there's nothing to worry about, it'll do fine until 2033 at least. On the other hand if you're upgrading from say a 1060 or 1070 you should immediately cancel and order a refund kek.
Autism thread.
Reminds me of why I don’t play my 3070 3900XT computer and have more fun playing kino like lost planet 2, old call of duty campaigns, and the darkness on Xbox series X
Who is stopping you from playing older titles on newer hardware?
Cause I have all the discs for 7th gen kino and don’t want to play shitty steam ports
All this marketing
I have a 1050ti and i'm not going to upgrade like until 8000-9000 series
There is literally no need to upgrade
This is the most poorgay cope. Amazing. I didnt think it was real.
I don't play AAA
I haven't used a single game that has used beyond 50% of my computer
Why should i buy something else?
To flex on the poorgays like the rest of us. You think I have a 3060ti to play Elden Ring at 1440p? I have it to talk shit to the browns
You don't play AAA because you can't play AAA.
Can't really blame him 2bh.
the 3GB 1060 is particularly bad so your games will fricking fly now.
I just upgraded from integrated graphics to a 1050 ti 😀

How am I for 1080p gaming?
Youre in the pipe, 5 by 5
You could have gotten a more powerful 6600XT for like $40 less, but not the worst deal I guess.
Could really use some GPU advice I'm at a crossroads with it.
>Currently using a 1660.
>Have a 2080s, but its watercooled and I don't have a setup for it. Every custom loop setup I look into seems to run 400-600 bucks.
>600 bucks I could get a 6800, which seems similar performance on newer tech. (It is MSI but not ventus)
>Or wait for new AMD cards and hope 6800 or better performance doesn't go up in price.
Looking for something that will last several years for 1440 over 60fps (current monitor is 75Hz but I would like to go a little higher for some games but for the most part 60 being stable is good enough and I do feel it is a diminishing return the higher it goes much like resolution that 1440 jump was nice but 4k isn't as big of a difference over good monitor feature set)
I favor AMD a little for a few reasons. I'm going Linux, Nvidia works there fine-ish, but AMD sees a boost in some places, I'm just sick of Window's shit. I've flipped back and forth between green and red over the years and AMD ages better, they launch with shaky drivers but they do steady improve longer and their high ram amounts help.I've gotten much better life out of every AMD card I've had over every Nvidia card I've had.
AMDs ray tracing is smarter done, but shittier now so maybe next round it will improve though overall I don't care that much, feels like its going to take 5 years at least for games to support it for shit anyway. I do like Nvidia's encoder but its not make or break for me. Don't care about shadowplay and at 1440, DLSS is a non-issue (I think AMDs version will catch up but doesn't matter I prefer native resolution and sampling over it over AI upscaling a lower one as it is noticeable even in DLSS 2.0). If I could find a way to convert the 2080s to air or a reasonable way to do a loop I would continue Nvidia, but otherwise its a go for 6800 or wait for its replacement situation for me.
tl;dr Using 1660, have a 2080s that needs a loop, considering 6800 or 7000.
When you say the 2080s is water cooled, does it have a block for a custom loop on it with no tubes or does it have its own radiator? If it has it's own radiator then you can just plug it in and connect the fans cables and it should work. If it's for a loop and need tubes from a setup to be plugged in then I'm confused to why you even bought it and you can probably just go ahead and sell it. The only way to convert it back to air is to get a matching 2080s cooler, probably by getting a sold for parts 2080s on ebay that has a cooler that fits on the reference model board.
As for 1440p60 for a couple years the 6800 should handle that fine since it's sitting at 100-120 there right now.
Its a model that comes with a water block already on it for the purpose of custom loop. As in it needs a rad/hoses/pump/fittings/etc to work. I ended up with it, so I didn't have to buy it, but it seems like to use it would cost nearly as much as a new card as far as I've found. This is paradox I'm in. No luck finding a matching air cooler so far as its a unit that comes stock made for custom cooling. To use a the card I could maybe just get a card and not spend a weekend building it and it would be something newer and likely to last longer without custom loop risk either.
Definitely in range. I'll go up to like 600ish for a card. in that 400 range though I could come close for cooling the 2080s though so anything weaker in that range is only really offering lazy setup. Which I like lazy setup but I'm willing to deal with pain in the ass for a big power gap too though.
WTF
???
That's why I said it would be better to find a 2080S being sold for parts and hope it's on the reference board which means the mounting screw holes would be interchangeable with your (likely) reference board 2080s made for water cooling.
Oh sorry misunderstood originally. That is a good idea. Any idea how to find out which brands/models use the stock board an which don't?
Seems the only info source is graphics card and watercooling forums, since the only way to tell is buying the card and taking it apart. As for telling whether a particular card for sale is or not you would have to make a list ahead of time of which brands were using it after doing some digging or making a thread with your concerns somewhere people who collect that info frequent.
I’ve got a 2060 Super that has been an absolute beast, I haven’t found a game it can’t handle yet. It does tend to run a little hot but I need a bigger case and more fans, and a better CPU would really let it run free. But, no water cooling to worry about. A quick Google found them to be between $350-$400 if that’s in your price range.
>gpus still expensive as frick in my country
I just don't care anymore, I still have a 970 and I am just going to bite the bullet and buy a 3070 for 650 bucks
I would've got at least the 3060ti or 6700xt for $450 but its still a good card for 1080p60fp ultra settings pretty much everything. I wouldn't feel comfortable doing 1440p60fps high unless I had a 6700xt or equivalent. Even 1440p144fps is as stressful as 4k
The 3060Ti is a 1080p/144Hz or 1440p/60Hz card.
I get 1440p90 with mine though.
3060 is a 1440p144 card
3080 is a 4k144 card
>but muh benchmarks for modern AAA shit games nobody plays at ultra settings!
I think people worry that if it can't play today's games at max then it may not play that one or two high end games they may have interest in that come out in the next few years. AAA is a barren wasteland but every now and then it has a decent title.
That said I do think GPU companies are pushing high frame rates (which in some game types are nice), higher resolutions (4k is marginal 8k is stupid), RTX (barely used and rarely much difference), DLSS (rare use and only if using other gimmicks), and so on to drive people to want new cards. Because I think they know we are closing in on the point of things just being good enough.
1440 is a nice jump, 4k is okay but on a monitor there is no reason to go beyond it. Resolution really being a function of both pixels but also screen size and distance so the returns get less and less quickly. Frame rates are the same, sure there exist a monitor that can do over 300 fps, but will most humans even be able to notice, probably not.
RTX is cool, but its so game specific and being done too many ways. Nvidia does it best, but the stupidest as the cores do frick all for the 99% of games not using them. AMD is more clever in its all core approach but can't pull off the quality as well. In engine global illumination like in UE (think Unity has it too now?) is perhaps a better way forward but still going heavily rely on the hardware to sort it out well. So we are probably a long way off from it being a common feature in the average game.
Games and their graphics are good, draw distance will hit a point where going further won't be visible. Sure those Unreal Engine demo level graphics aren't obtainable in gameplay so there is room to grow, but that type of thing in real time is going to be a much larger jump than a yearly GPU cycle.
GPU companies need a reason to sell cards and until a good high end cheap monitor comes out or AAA removes its head from its ass to be good again there just isn't enough for it.
