PC Build Advice/Review II: 5090 or Bust.

I'm wanting to prepare for a possible EVGA queue on the Ti cards, and I'm wondering how that works? Near as I can tell it doesn't even take an account... just from their product page you do an auto-notify and put in your name and email?

I would create a account anyway. You need too in order to register the products and get the full benefits of that. Good luck!

I won a 6700 XT in the Newegg shuffle today, already have a 3080. Any BG bros need a GPU before I scalp the fuck outta this?

[Tyrath]

I dooo. How much you selling for?

[Gredival]

Newegg sale price was 960, shipping was 10, and tax brings it to $1075. So just gimme that + shipping/insurance + whatever it costs to cover the PayPal fee.

Model is a Gigabyte OC Windforce 3x Fan

[Salodin]

For the 3080!!!!

Not blaming you, just saying I can't believe these post tariff prices are still a thing and the markup is ridiculous.

You used to be able to build a gaming rig from scratch that could play any current game (at the time) at max settings for under $1100, and that wasn't even that long ago.

Oh jeez, yeah I'm gonna let someone else claim it if they want. These prices be nuts (not blaming you like salad said)

[Gredival]

Yeah I could still scalp it for like 1200 I'm pretty sure. Margins aren't as high on AMD as RTX.

lmao obv not on you Gred but that's fucked up that card retails for $480

this market is insane. god bless bots.

[Gredival]

The AIB manufacturer prices for the AMD cards are crazy

[Jefe]

Lolminer has an update which partially ungimps the 3060's hash rate, not great but better. Who knows if the method will work with the upcoming gpus. Anyway, haven't scored 3090s, not one. I'll fucking getcha.

Thought retail was 699? Still cray

$479 is the price for an AMD reference 6700 XT, but MSRP for all the partner cards are all 900+

[Tyrath]

Oh I thought you were talking about 3080 lol

[Cyn]

Nobody sane would get rid of a 3080 for a 6700 XT lol. 6700 XT performance is more on the 3060ti level.

[Tyrath]

Hey man I don't know anything about the AMD cards and which numbers are which

[Krandor]

Both companies follow generally comparable numbering schemes for awhile, 3090/3080/3070/etc and 6900/6800/6700/etc.

[Prothescar]

AMD cards are just bad value rn. Raster performance can go pound for pound with nvidia but you get practically no ray tracing support and, most importantly, no DLSS. Really haven't got much hope for AMD's answer to DLSS to be anything worth talking about either but I hope they prove me wrong because DLSS style supersampling for console games can only be a W for us over here on PC too.

[Krandor]

They showed off a bit of what AMD's solution is with the Unreal Engine 5 reveal. From the tiny bit shown it looked pretty good, but need to see it full motion
