Where are these numbers even coming from? They seem largely made-up. I could have made those charts. :rolleyes:

Says code is no longer active for me. Congrats to those who were able to get in on it. :smug:

Would the power savings even come close to the extra $160.00 in cost between the two? Just undervolt the 14900K for similar performance and save money at the same time.

Yeah, there seems to be a lot of cash wasted on that build that's not adding to performance or features. $190.00 for a B650 motherboard is crazy. If you want to spend that kind of money you're better off getting an X670 for $209.99, or save money and get a cheaper B650 board for around...

Even at equal prices, the 7800X3D is the more attractive option to me.

You're a gentleman and a scholar.

And here I am still biding my time with my 10900K until AMD 8xxx series comes out. :hungry:

TTT

I was using this EVGA GTX 1070 as a back-up GPU, but I've since upgraded and no longer need it. Only used for gaming. Kept clean in a smoke-free house. Paypal and U.S. lower 48 states only please. SOLD Heatware: Black & White: (46-0-0)

Indeed. I need a monitor upgrade first. I'm still on a 4K/60hz screen. I only got the 4090 on an impulse when my old 3090 was having issues.

It's taking all of my willpower not to upgrade from my 10900K right now, but I want to hold out for the 8xxx series. :hungry:

PNY seems to have higher brand reputation than Zotac. My previous card was a Zotac 3090 and it ran stupidly hot. Fortunately, their RMA service is very good, but I would go with almost any other brand if paying big money on a GPU.

I figure finding any RTX 4090 these days at the original MSRP is a pretty good deal. Best Buy has the PNY RTX 4090 currently in stock at $1,599.99. Not sure if there will be any good deals on Black Friday, but for now MSRP is MSRP. :cool:

If this is for a 4070 why do they still have the incorrect 4070Ti information and screen images still up? Seems like an intentional bait-and-switch. :bored:

14th gen must be imminent. :cool:
