So the 4080 Super went on sale today. I tried to buy the founders edition from Best Buy but it was instantly sold out. So I settled for the MSI 4080 Super from Best Buy instead and got a confirmed receipt for purchase. I hopped on Newegg to see if I could snag the ASUS TUF 4080 Super model...

I'm just wondering because I see video cards selling for significantly less on AliExpress. But the caveat is that these video cards are sold from China which increases delivery time to 2 weeks+ and let's be honest you're half wondering if the video card is some kind of knock off imitation. And...

The big reason and really the only reason is money. According to the article below, Nvidia registered a staggering 18.12 billion dollars of revenue in the past financial quarter and 14.51 billion of it came from their Data Center/AI division. Doing the math that is 80% of their total revenue...

We've all heard the rumors - a 4080 Super, 4070 Ti Super, and 4070 Super versions are slated to come out in 2024. They will include slightly buffed CUDA core counts but more importantly increased VRAM, reportedly 20GB on the 4080 Super and 16GB on the 4070 Super variants. This is a much needed...

Lenovo LOQ 15 15.6" Gaming Laptop 1080P 144Hz AMD Ryzen 7-7840HS 16GB RAM 512GB SSD NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 8GB Windows 11. Seems like a pretty good deal for a sub $900 4060 laptop if you need one of those. link here...

Now available direct from Dell via Ebay for $799. If I hadn't already snagged a Samsung OLED G8 I would be all over this deal. But if you want to check out the hype of an ultra-wide OLED for under 1k, this is probably a pretty good deal. You can get them below while the stock lasts. Good...

Ok serious question, Black Friday sales are coming up and these two video cards are about $150 apart. It feels to me like the 6950XT offers slightly more bang for the buck even though it's a generation older. What I've found on Newegg is that the 6950 XT sells for just $599 versus the 7900XT...

Benchmarks and source article here from PCWorld: https://www.pcworld.com/article/1788804/geforce-rtx-4070-vs-rtx-3080-vs-radeon-rx-6800-xt-which-gpu-buy.html Long story short, in rasterized games, 4070 loses to the 6800XT which can be found for under $550 on Newegg. Meanwhile it's priced at...

Buying link to amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/INNOCN-Ultrawide-Monitor-FreeSync-Premium/dp/B09N3G9T16 I don't know how long the $80 off coupon offer will last but this is a pretty decent deal for a big 40" high refresh ultrawide. It's kind of no frills and a new brand but it has gotten...

So I just ordered this 32" 2560x1440 175hz Quantum Dot monitor for $399 on Amazon thanks to Cyber Monday sale. I searched the forums but haven't seen any posts discussing it yet. The key points I liked about this monitor is the 32" form factor, 16:9 display ratio, the VESA HDR 600...

So I just heard this news from NotanApplefan... The new Radeon 6800 is a MUCH faster mining card than even the Nvidia 3090. 1.5x faster allegedly. When you consider that the power draw on the 6000 series is much lower, the price is lower, and the mining performance is upwards of 50% faster...

So the rumors are in the air. The 3080 Ti will be coming out soon to compete with AMD 6000 series. It's going to have more memory than the 3080 but probably less than the 3090. What I'm hearing is 20GB of DDR6X but with the 320bit bus of the 3080 but keeping the CUDA core count of the 3090...

I took the plunge and did preorder via B&H photo. I was scanning Amazon and Newegg at 12AM and did not see any listed on the website yet. I guess I'll go for the "sure" thing. I'll let you guys know if/when it ships. So is anybody else buying a Ryzen 5000 today, if so which one did you go...

So as everyone knows by now only the very lucky few, or the ones who were willing to pay scalped prices have been able to get their hands on a 3080, 3090, or 3070 GPU. Oh almost forgot, the ones lucky enough to live near one of 8 Microcenter locations also were able to get them via the brick...

So the big AMD Radeon announcement has come and gone and now we have official pricing from AMD along with a mixed bag of performance results and a new gimmick/mechanism that requires you to have a 5000 series AMD CPU for max performance?? Let's skip that potential controversy and go to the...

So from what I understand Zen 3 makes an architectural leap that will provide an additional 19% in IPC performance. And from what AMD reveals this means that they finally beat Intel at gaming. Per the slides the 5900X defeats the 10900k pretty much across the board except for one scenario...

Supposedly the 5900x will feature 5ghz boost clock, up to 20% IPC gains, and 150W TDP. Wow! This is going to be my next CPU. Holy cow, this is gonna blow the doors off Intel and still do everything else much faster thanks to 12 cores and 24 threads. AMD is on FIRE!! 🔥 🔥 🔥 Source...

So I was watching hot news and I saw the following specs for Radeon 6000. Tell me if you think these are accurate. Youtube source here: Radeon 6900 XT 5120 shaders 256 bit bus 16GB GDDR6 300W Radeon 6800 XT 3840 shaders 192 bit bus 12 GB GDDR6 200W Radeon 6700 XT 2560 shaders 192 bit bus 6...

for the purposes of Blender... Game performance is the same but productivity apps are a LOT better. I wonder if it could be fooled into thinking it was a full 2080 by bios flashing and how that would boost performance?

The 3500x beats Intel's 9400F in terms of pricing, matches it in performance, and has an actual upgrade path being higher zen 2 chips in the same product line. Available for under $120 on Aliexpress. The 9400F retails for $160 on Newegg. PS This also makes the 2600 irrelevant which is...

I'm going back to AMD for cpu for the first time! So right now I'm trying to pick between Gigabyte Aorus Master, Asus Crosshair VIII Hero, Asrock Taichi, and MSI PEG Ace. I don't like having only 4 sata ports on the MSI. I'm unsure about the Taichi. I do like the 2.5 GB LAN feature. Does...

Very sweet deal on 100Hz G-Sync monitor. If you missed the deal on the Alienware, for this price, it's really tough to pass up on the ASUS ultrawide! Sold here on Newegg. The 20% off coupon is EMCERPW25 Let me know if you found this deal useful! (y) NM, please edit title. It's $799 after...

So I'm going to ask those of you who have experienced these formats, what is most enjoyable/useable for you? I currently own a 32" 1440p 16:9 monitor and I really enjoy this size format. Most media runs and displays with no problems or huge black bars. I can comfortably squeeze two browser...

Savings code BF20. Hunt yourself some black friday deals! Good luck! :)

Here we have a video examining how RTX ray tracing is implemented in Battlefield V. The most significant drawback, besides the massive performance hit is the noise. Particularly check out the scene where they examine ray traced waves and it looks noisy as hell instead of smooth. In fact I'd...

I'm thinking of buying a 165hz monitor for either Black Friday or Cyber Monday. My secondary display would then be my 75hz monitor. So will that work on my GTX 1080 to run 1 display at 75hz and the other at 165hz? Sounds kinda weird. Anyone else use two different refresh rate monitors and...

AMD shocked the CPU world when they released the epic Threadripper 2990WX. This 32 CPU 64 threaded beast crushed all Intel CPUs in multithreaded applications including most notably Cinebench. What makes the 2990WX possible is the technology known as Infinity Fabric. This unique technology...

Sources: Joker Productions Good Old Gamer 10 games were benchmarked with the above GPUs and the results discussed in the above videos. Keep in mind that the 2080 Ti FE is factory overclocked whereas the 1080 Ti FE does not come factory overclocked. What does this tell me? If you game at...
