In a month or two things will normalize. Just hold off until then.

Yeah but these Ryzen chips have higher ipc right? Does PBO give near max overclock? I kind of like this set and forget overclock feature. I think I might get some 4000mhz ram and underclock to 3600 until Zen 3. Also rumors of 3900XT might be true so probably smart to wait for that.

Why do you have 21 fans? Those are triple packs you have added. Are you building an airplane? :p Not sure why you wouldn't want a gold rated psu but whatevs. I'm doing a similar build so have fun with it.

Yes I plan on OC'ing and i like to keep my computer as long as I can with gpu and cpu drop in upgrades rather than build a whole new system that's why I want higher end parts. I rather spend a few hundred extra than build a whole new system in a couple years so that's my reasoning for the case...

I'm coming from my rig in my sig which has been going strong for almost 5 years now and I've got a upgrade itch. My build: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/AltCtrl/saved/sR68Jx Any changes I should make? I'm carrying over my 1080Ti until the 3080Ti comes out. I am planning on upgrading to Zen 3...

Why would you go z390 and cut off any future upgrade path? Anyway I would pick PC 2 because AMD has newer tech and Zen 3 is around the corner for possible upgrade.

I'm new to AMD but doing a new build for it soon. To overclock a 3900XT it supposedly supports Infinity Fabric Speed (FLCK) of 2000mhz does that mean I need to get ddr4-4000 to get the most out of the cpu? Will Zen 3 support a even higher FLCK? I've been reading this for reference: Corsair OC Guide

Why would anyone go B550 over x570? I don't really understand the point of those boards.

Idk Asus doesn't mention compatibility with PCIe 4.0. They're usually my go to for motherboards. I'm kinda tempted to go team red now though.

Is there a list of compatible PCIe 4.0 z490 Boards? Yes I know I'll supposedly have to wait for Intel 11th gen cpu's I'm just looking to "future proof" lul.

Hi I'm building a new system soon and looking at these two boards: Asus ROG Strix Z490-A Asus ROG Maximus XII Hero Other than the fancier built in audio(which I won't use) and other fancy things am I missing out on much going with the Strix board? I like it because I'm going with a black/white...

Well my computer started restarting randomly while gaming so that's a problem.. Getting DistributedCOM warnings in event viewer but not sure what the problem is. What if I kept my 1080ti and upgraded to the 3080ti this summer. Are the new intel cpu's going to be a big improvement still being on...

My current rig has been running for almost 5 years and is still going strong: Complete Build: Case: Corsair Air 540 Motherboard: Asus MAXIMUS VIII HERO CPU: Intel Core i7-6700K @ 4.7ghz 1.38Vcore delid Cooling: Corsair H100i push/pull RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinum 16GB DDR4-3000 SSD: 1TB...

I did the same, the HE4xx definitely looks more comfortable/better built.

Time to get ready for Starcraft Remastered! Got my Logitech G Pro Mouse and Keyboard and APM over 9000!

I've noticed FedEx likes to do this. They deliver on the estimate and not a day before. I always go with UPS for this reason.

Got my 1080Ti Aorus Xtreme! Hype!!! OC'd it to +25 core/+500 mem. Might tinker some more with it later. http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/19262025

Doubt Asus has fixed this as they made the heatsink bigger with the 1080Ti. I've got a Aorus 1080Ti Xtreme being delivered tomorrow will be interesting to see how it sags because its a big 3 fan card as well. Regardless I'm pretty excited to get it installed. I've always gone with EVGA in the...

ASUS ROG STRIX GeForce GTX 1080 TI 11GB in stock!!! hurry!! https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814126187 I got the AORUS myself but can't go wrong with a STRIX.

I got one!! My first Gigabyte card.

Was able to snag the Aorus 1080Ti Xtreme from newegg. My first Gigabyte card.. have always gone with EVGA in the past but the 1 month wait is to long. Can't wait for it to get here!

I got a ftw3 preordered as well. Disappointed in EVGA's delayed release, hoping to find a good aib sooner or even better a Hybrid.. c'mon Sea Hawk!

When is the 1080ti MSI Sea Hawk coming out?

Why was it crap? I've heard mostly good things about the Strix series.

When did the Strix sell out on newegg? Also isn't the Aorus supposed to have good stock? I need a card fast because my 980Ti is literally dying.

EVGA FTW3 or Asus Strix... or a EVGA Hybrid. Help me decide!

Is there much difference in noise/temps between a AIB(FTW3 or Strix) and hybrid?

Very happy with my new computer running a EVGA 980Ti Hybrid @ 1500/8000Mhz 74.6% ASIC with stock volts and I know I can push it further. It stays at 50C load whether I put it on auto fan or 60% speed.

Might order.

Lol at all the people calling price matching a scam. It's the stores responsibility to either accept or reject and price match and keep their employees informed. The policy was created to keep the stores competitive. Also how is arbitrage shady? Many people make a living doing it..

http://store.acer.com/store/aceramer/en_US/pd/ThemeID.35703000/productID.314151300 The buy button is back though we all know there's no product available right now.

Lucky I'm jelly and salty at the same time. Salty jelly. Let us know your thoughts!

I got the backorder email from acer as well.. I'm salty. Will probably end up cancelling and getting it at Amazon at this rate.

This is peeking my interests.

That wouldn't make sense, the 970 is weaker than the 780Ti. Go 970 SLI or wait for 980Ti.

What do you need 8GB for?

Good deal on this card, hope there are no coil whines.

But you don't get the free game with this correct?

I recently bought the HD350's and personally found the clamp force to be to strong. Returned them and went with the astro a40's instead and I'm happy with the extra comfort for the price.

Don't get me wrong I still look for best bang for the buck. You might say the 970 is just that but I think it's worth spending a little more on the GPU. Most games are GPU dependent, you need to give me a better example than a poorly optimized game from a company that's almost going bankrupt.
