    Who else is waiting on Zen 4 x3D before upgrading?

    Being that I can't really afford both a new GPU and a new CPU/Motherboard/ram/case, I will go for the later and stick with my old 2080Ti for a while. My 5820k@4.3GHz's life has just about run it's course. I'm sure the 2080Ti will perform much better with a 7800x3D setup. Hopefully a reasonably...

    Who else is waiting on Zen 4 x3D before upgrading?

    Looks like the 7800x3D will be where I jump unless for some reason it gets bad reviews.

    Who else is waiting on Zen 4 x3D before upgrading?

    I waited this long I might as well wait for the 7800x3D reviews before I jump.

    Who else is waiting on Zen 4 x3D before upgrading?

    I’m really chomping at the bit to upgrade now. My 5820k is getting quite long in the tooth for 4k gaming, Unfortunately it looks like I’ll have to wait until April before I finally jump. In the meantime I purchased Ghoat of Tsushima Director’s Cut for my PS4 Pro for $20. Amazing game...

    Hogwarts Legacy

    I have a 5802k@4.3GHz w/2080Ti and FV43U monitor. I guess we’ve gotten to the point where I need to upgrade my setup to play the latest games at higher resolutions/refresh rates. I can afford to upgrade my CPU/motherboard/ram but not the GPU. Was waiting of the 7800x3D first. I guess I’ll be...

    Hogwarts Legacy

    Come on people! I have higher expectations than usual for the folks here. Don't buy unfinished/unoptimized/poor ports. It only encourages this kind of behavior. I know, this game is going to sell gangbusters no matter what but I refuse to buy a shitty PC port. I still haven't purchased...

    Hogwarts Legacy

    Too many good games out to waste time on new unoptimized ones. I just bought Ghost of Tsushima PS4 (I have Pro) version off eBay for $20. When they fix Hogwart's PC I'll play it.

    Hi-Fi RUSH

    The use of DLSS is really good in this game too. On my 2080Ti @ 4k/144Hz with DLSS Quality and VRR I’m able to play it with all the features maxed out. I have t checked my framerate but it’s a smooth experience and it’s still very sharp.

    Hi-Fi RUSH

    It’s kind of sad we’re so easily impressed by a mostly bug-free, smooth running Unreal Engine PC release in 2023. The game is good but it’s the execution that’s the shining star here. I really hope this is a good sign on Bethesda titles moving forward. I say that, but I know Starfield is...

    Hi-Fi RUSH

    Freebie Gamepass game that came out of nowhere. Has a Sunset Overdrive vibe, it's a lot of fun. I don't think I'd pay $30, this is more of a $5-$10 game. PC Gamepass is definitely worth the money.

    You guys are a glutton for punishment. I stopped preordering games way back when Watch Dogs (1) came out. At least you can refund a game now on all the bigger PC platforms.

    DLSS and VRR is really needed on this one, especially on my 2080Ti.

    It doesn't matter- I have a 2080Ti, but I know better than to buy any PC game at full price, especially $70.

    4070ti 800$ minimum...lol no thanks nvidia! My 3080 is lookin better and better everyday.

    I can upgrade my whole PC (I will) for less than the price of the GPU. I guess I'll be holding on to my 2080Ti for a while. At least my new 4k monitor supports Gsync to help smooth things out.

    Who else is waiting on Zen 4 x3D before upgrading?

    The 7800x3D has a lower boost clock (and base it looks like) so it will be interesting to see if it will be worth it for the extra money. I bet they did this to keep it from eating into their upper priced chips too much.

    Who else is waiting on Zen 4 x3D before upgrading?

    For me it’s more of a matter of how much and will it be worth it to purchase over a standard chip.

    Who else is waiting on Zen 4 x3D before upgrading?

    Only 16GB of ram (provided they have any in stock) with the 7600x, I’m wondering if I should even bother with the 7700x (32GB with that). I’d probably want 32GB of ram anyways. What motherboard, case, cooling should I get?

    Who else is waiting on Zen 4 x3D before upgrading?

    I'm going to be by the Cambridge, MA Microcenter for the first time in a while on Monday (should be insane in there) so I'm wondering if I should just go for it and grab a 7600x or 7700x with free ram deals or should wait to see what's going on with the new x3D? Plus I need new case and...

    GIGABYTE AORUS FV43U 43 inch 4k 144 HDR1000 QLED monitor

    https://displayhdr.org/ Definitely a 1000nit display. HDR10 and HDR10+ are a media profile. There’s a table in that page that describes the various DisplayHDR names. The FV43U could probably support HDR10+ if Gigabyte chose to update it. It already supports HDR10.

    GIGABYTE AORUS FV43U 43 inch 4k 144 HDR1000 QLED monitor

    Dated 12/12/22 so it’s probably new? Who knows. They don’t post any update notes so grab it while you can. Win11 now officially supports HDR10+ so I sent support an email asking if they could add it in a firmware update- support replied it’s a HDR1000 display and doesn’t support HDR10. I tried...

    GIGABYTE AORUS FV43U 43 inch 4k 144 HDR1000 QLED monitor

    It shouldn't matter- but isn't this display bandwidth limited over HDMI 2.1? I mean for $600 I thought it was worth it- but then the 48" OLED was the same price a couple of weeks later. Either way, I figure eventually OLED will become the standard for all PC displays, so in a few years I'll...

    Who else is waiting on Zen 4 x3D before upgrading?

    5820k @ 4.3GHz w/2080Ti. I was planning on upgrading this holiday season but I figure I've waited this long I might as well wait a little longer. Once the new x3D reviews start coming out I will decide my next step.

    Has anyone used the Windows HDR Calibration tool for Win 11 with this display? I can't figure it out. I'm wondering what people's suggested settings are. I assume this display doesn't have HGiG support?

    Question about i7 13700k build

    https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=100-NK-3000-B9 Well it’s on the old side but that’s the one the product I registered links to. EVGA also sells a 12 pin cable for their modular PSs but I’m not sure if it will work right on the new 40 series of cards.

    Raptor Lake 2022 October at the latest

    So which is the best chip for a new 4k gaming build? 13600k or 13700k? I have a lot of DDR4 but it’s all slower, 2200, so at this point I think I might as well go DDR5.

    Microcenter shows 13600K $320, 13700K $440, 13900K $650 available on 10/20

    Question about i7 13700k build

    I'd like to build a similar setup. My current X99 build has an old EVGA Supernova 1300 G2, I assume that should handle it? I assume even though it's 7yrs old it should still be good, correct? That PSU was the only one in it's price range I could find that would push a 1080Ti SLI setup (yes, I...
