My old (8yrs) EVGA 1300 G2 Gold was making all sorts of strange noises in my new 7900x/7900xtx build so I purchased a Vetroo 1000 because it got good reviews on Blurbusters and was only $110. Seems more than adequate but I think there is a tiny bit of coil whine (can’t hear it over the 7900xtx...

I just started playing Hogwarts, and it's really the first game I've sat down and played on my newish 7900xtx. First thing I noticed was that there was some kind of HDR dimming issue, where the whole screen would continuously get brighter/darker/brighter/darker. I've found a few reddit posts...

https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-fidelityfx-super-resolution-3-fsr3-is-coming-soon-to-forspoken-and-immortals-of-aveum That means it must not be very good. Starfield isn't even on the list. AMD really needs to step up- Nvidia is outpacing them in leaps and bounds. I can see why they might want...

FS: EVGA 2080Ti Black (with retail box if want). Had a very light overclock on it, only used for gaming, no mining- completely unmodified. $300+shipping OBO https://www.heatware.com/u/15719/to

https://hwbusters.com/psus/vetroo-1000w-atx-v3-0-psu-review/ I picked this one off eBay for $110 shipped to replace my loud EVGA 1300 G2 and can highly recommend it. It's relatively quiet compared to most PSUs in this class and is completely modular- it uses EVGA pinouts so I'm using my higher...

I finally got around to installing my open-box Red Devil 7900xtx. I had to do a fresh Win11 install, but even now I am still getting spontaneous reboots- trying to narrow it down. I have a month to return to the card to Microcenter, so I want to try and figure out if it's just an instability...

Brand new- sealed, got it as part of the Microcenter bundle a couple of months back. Will provide receipt. $245 shipped- local pickup will take off $15. https://www.heatware.com/u/15719/to Sold

As per title. Requires AMD 7xxx CPU. Paypal. Will send key. https://www.heatware.com/u/15719

As people saw in that other thread I just picked up an open box Red Devil 7900xtx. Just the bare card- can someone link on Amazon to exactly what ARGB cable I need to sync up with my mobo? I have no idea. Also, I have a really long HDMI run and this card only has one HDMI out. What kind of...

Bought a 2080Ti back in early 2019, skipped the last generation, usually upgrade every (or every other) generation, this is the first time in a long time I feel no urge to upgrade. I just finished a new 7900x build, but my GPU will stick around for a while. As you can tell, I bought a 2080Ti so...

The ASUS B650e-f that came with the MicroCenter 7900x bundle (not my choice, would have gotten something else) only has two full sized PCI-e x16 slots, the other two are 4.0 x1 (and it looks like those are mostly lost if you get a large GPU). I have a 10G NIC that will go in the 2nd x16 slot, so...

Currently have a [email protected] w/2080Ti and 4k/144Hz display. It’s time for a new build- I was going to go 7800x3D but the MS bundles are so affordable and I have to buy new everything (except Power Supply), so I’m not sure what to buy. I don’t plant on upgrading my GPU right now (can’t really...

https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/bundle-and-save.aspx I was going to start a 7800x3D build but when I see this deal I'm very tempted. My last build was a 5820k almost a decade now, so I'd have to buy everything new (just bought a 990 Pro SSD). I'm sort of conflicted when I see this.

I know the USB 4 spec supports 40Gbps without an add-in card, but I'm having difficulting finding AM5 boards with 40Gbps built-in. Is there a definitive list somewhere of boards that support 40Gbps, or if not have a Thunderbolt header for an add-in card?

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.

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/12gb-4080-unlaunch/ Too much backlash about purposely trying to confuse the market. I imagine it will be renamed as a 4070 or 4070Ti and (possibly) a slight price drop ($50?).

Mostly for 4k/144Hz gaming (2080Ti to be upgraded eventually as well). I will retire the old setup as an Unraid server (provided I upgrade whole-hog, case, cooler, etc). Looking for thoughts on this, most of the higher-end X99 Xeons can be had for dirt cheap now, even the 6950x can be found...

I was blowing dust out of my PC earlier and I was taking a closer look at my EVGA 2080Ti and lo and behold I noticed there was what I thought was shipping plastic along the edge. EVGA does an amazing job putting plastic on their cards, it's hard to tell it's even there. It took me a while to...

https://www.karma-group.ru/upload/iblock/926/Lenovo_EMC_PX4-400D_.A1635690A6414A46B83B91ADD251650F.pdf I was looking to buy a NAS and saw one of these pop up on eBay for $100. It's EOL, and unsupported, but even though it's a little old (2014) the hardware is pretty solid- apparently it's just...

5820k @ 4.3GHz w/2080Ti setup, gaming @ 4k/60Hz. I plan on upgrading my GPU and display when the newer cards are easier to get a hold of. Is it time to upgrade my CPU as well? Im not sure if I should just wait it out for Zen 4 or something Intel, or just bite the bullet. There are some decent...

I usually stick with EVGA on the Nvidia side because the transferable warranty makes the cards easier to sell (still 16mos left on my 2080Ti Black). I think MSI also has a transferable warranty? Any others? What about AMD?

Just picked this up for $120 and grabbed a $5 PCIE 4x controller for it for my old X99 board. This drive is pretty fast for the money. It kills my old 960 Evo 500GB drive- must be at least 20-30% faster. It's amazing how much technology improves in just a few years- I think I paid about the...

https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1026618/Msi-X99a-Sli-Plus.html?page=35# https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QMBQZ23 It should work. My setup consists of a 5820k and 2080Ti (in slot 1) and a 960 EVO in the built in M.2 slot. Want to add a 2nd NVME Drive. Even with 28 lanes, according to...

I've had a 5820k @ 4.3GHz on air for ~5yrs. 16GB, 2080Ti gaming 4k/60Hz. I've been wanting to upgrade my system for a while but I still don't see a reason to. Every benchmark I've seen still shows games are (for the most part) GPU bottlenecked at 4k/60 with my CPU. Is there any GPU/processor...

I have an old Mediasonic H82-SU3S2 8 bay drive enclosure. I could never quite get it to work correctly with USB 3.0 so on an old mini-PC I built based around a ASRock N3700-ITX embeded motherboard I installed a JMicron PCI-E SATA card and use it with that. Through this controller it's the only...

I have an old mini htpc sitting around and a 8bay drive dock. I already have a few single drives in it with some Blu-ray rips, but I bought a Shield so I’d like to use it as a dedicated NAS. I don’t care about backups because I already own the physical media- all I want to do is to be able to...

I recently bought a 2080ti and I have a spare 1080ti lying around. I'm trying to sell it but before I do I'd like to try out some of the mGPU games I own. Does anyone know where to find a list of games that supports mpgu? Also, do I need to bridge the 2 cards like SLI (don't see how) or would...

Anthem- SOLD BF V: SOLD

I have some neuropathy and tendonitis in my hands. Bought a MS Natural KB 4000 but it's not very good for gaming. Have an old Logitech G13 in my closet which I never used. Wondering how good these are for FPS and gaming in general? I see the one handed KBs are gaining in popularity.

Blower style Asus 1080ti Turbo. Never mined or overclocked, used for occasional gaming. Bought new, no box. $500 insured/shipped. https://www.heatware.com/u/15719/to

5820k @ 4.3ghz on air. Setup consists of basically a 1080Ti but I'm gaming at 4k so I feel like I'm pretty much pushing it on the newer games. Everything else is good- plenty of ram, 960 Evo M2, etc, etc. Use it basically for gaming and every day use. The 5820k have life left in it?

Currently I'm using an Asus AC68 and would like to upgrade because for some things I find it too slow. I have a Linksys wrt3200acm in the closet because the wifi sucks. I have over 20 devices on wifi, various things like set top boxes, Google assistant devices, ecobee, shield, pc, etc. Usually...

It was on sale at Creative's site for $220 so I grabbed one (yes I know it's been $20 cheaper at times but I could never manage to get it). I'm pretty impressed by it. Definitely sounds much better than my cheapie $40 2.1 setup. My main issue with it though is that it has no headphone switch-...

https://mikrotik.com/product/wireless_wire So this thing is pretty neat. I moved into a 130yr old condo with a strange floorplan which made it difficult to wire properly. The closet with my FIOS ONT was across the room (~20ft) from my media center, and I couldn't really get a decent signal to...

I'm tired of using my mediocre 2015 48ju6700 Samsung 4k 48" TV with fake HDR as a display. As like everyone else with a Nvidia based card we have to decide either between a larger 4k display with either Freesync or a smaller g-sync display. I don't really like ultrawide, I had an early one too...

I have a 48" Samsung TV I'm using as a monitor. It has standard 400x400 spacing. Weighs ~25lbs. Desk is in a place where I can't properly wall mount- I was wondering if there are any large screen VESA desk mounts/stands that I can use? The TV stand takes up way too much space. I've found some...

You'd think there'd be a market for >30" 4k displays with HDR and Gsync but as of now there haven't been any (except for the two 27" $2k ones). Outside of Nvidia's upcoming 65" BFGDs (which will probably cost a mint) there aren't any. What's taking so long and why is the technology so...

I've had this router for a couple of years and I've had nothing but problems with it. I've tried various builds of DD-WRT and the stock firmware and I still have tons of problems- mostly with the wifi. I just moved a couple of months ago and I need to run the router as the base for a client...

Just moved and discovered my various unused PC stuff from over the years. I have a lot of old creative cards, an M-Audio card and more interestingly, a Asus Xonar HDAV 1.3 Slim (HDMI audio). I was wondering if any of these might be worth putting up on eBay of if I should just dump them?

I posted this on another forum and wasn't getting responses so I thought it was more appropriate to post here: I just moved and unfortunately it's not practical to wire up my whole apartment for Cat6. I want to get FIOS gigabit- I'm trying to at least wire to my PC. Right now I have two...
