Albeit I had to take out the 3.5 tray....but i'll never use it for anything anyway.

I've yet to test it out on anything yet.

What the heck case is that?

Coincidentally I was about to ask in here why that ^^ particular Zotac card is so much shorter (203mm!) than most other 970s.

I really liked Blood Dragon. But I messed up and finished the main story in like 12 hours. I still had like 75% of the map left but just felt like it wasn't worth bothering with after getting the final weapon.

12? If you only truck through the story missions it takes like 3.

My friend is trying to figure out how long he can put off upgrading. He currently has 2 GTX 980s in SLI. What is that roughly the equivilent of?

He's got a 1440p monitor so I think he's gonna have to bite the bullet sooner or later.

I mean I have a 60hz monitor and anything under 60fps is immediately noticable to me and anything under 50 is unplayable.

When I click on Video Card nothing happens, I assumed that meant there was nothing left, as opposed to the site being broken, right? :mad:

I finally won the Newegg shuffle for a 3070ti after the better part of a year of trying off and on and at the last moment i just couldn't pull the trigger

gently caress paying 1k for a gpu, even if that's "good" these days

Keep an eye on https://www.evga.com/products/diy/

They seem to have cards semi-regularly (I think they usually drop around 11AM-12 EST)

I don't need a keyboard but I'd have needed a new PSU anyway.



Although I would have preferred a 3060 Ti or a 3070 I'm very happy to finally be done with this poo poo.

So I got a evga 3070 ti and 750w psu bundle a few weeks ago and have had zero problems in the 8 days since I put it all together but twice now (a week apart) I've had the entire system just completely shut off and both times I had a game running minimized and had a full screen streaming video playing when it happened. Is the GPU just overwhelming the PSU or something? I don't think it would be but is the PSU's eco mode having anything to do with it?

*edit* just realized I'm an idiot and didn't realize evga had their own fan control software (I was using MSI Afterburner still) and installing Precision X1 the first thing it did was update the firmware so who knows.
