    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    Good percentage of new tech sucks in its infancy - Intel may not be new but its new to them, should not have high expectations on initial lineup.

    Tho I own an evga 3090Ti I generally don’t give a damn who makes my card as I’ve never had to rma a gpu.

    AMD cards seem further out than Nvidia cards - I expect them in January or February unless i missed something. Didnt Lisa say theyd be like 1st quarter 2023?

    If youre expecting 30 series prices to drop more or 40 series to come out this year you may want to watch the latest jayz video where he breaks down the earnings call from Nvidia - looks like no 40 series this year and no more price drops.

    Nvidia earnings makes it seem like they arent releasing 40 series at all this year - infact he mentioned getting through the rest of the year correcting current product channel. Furthermore CEO made it seem like price corrections are done and no more price drops as theyre now where they want...

    Yeah if its only for daily family use that HP is just fine and since it has a GPU you can use it for some simple gaming - but youd need to upgrade ram to 16GB - If you do alot of varied work related task you can upgrade that to 32GB. Building is always the best route, but i get that not...

    Damn id take that over the Ark - considering how many test units went out to people to fuck with it must be close to final production. No way that many people were sent test units if that wasnt near final version.

    I have issues with people recommending builds and have them go super cheap. Why recommend B450 board and Gen4 NVME? Also this board doesnt support the cpu unless he has an older cpu to flash bios. I dont believe in ever building dated machines unless you have no choice - Anywho...

    My NAS has 20TB on drives and a couple plugged in drives as well. My local NAS keeps all full sized bluray disc on it. My cloud server also host plex and it only has 4TB of space so it cycles through alot of content.

    Do you have a price point? Id change to 5800X3D - go for a 3080 FE from BB - and PCIE Gen4 NVMEs since youre on X570 - 1TB XPG Blade, WD SN850 or 770, or Samsung 980 Pro. However as mentioned new AMD will drop in a few months along with new /everything/ in a sense. If youre not planning to...

    If youre not waiting then od scrub some of this away - Buying D4 right before more D5 stuff comes out is kinda "eh" at best.

    They really are good at doing some things better than others and thats class design. Sure its not built around the trinity but its still a sight to behold. I just wish this game had a reason to do grouping and dungeon crawls beyond xp grind.

    They will just delay it to make sure AIBs get more sales in. If they were to release within 2 months they cant do absurd pricing like im sure theyd love to.

    A 6900XT wrecks a 3080 and 3080TI in most cases - Id still argue a 6900XT is best value in general. FSR2.0 eliminated most of the gap on DLSS and has a faster adoption rate currently. At same price or close youd get better raw performance from the 6900XT than any 3080 variant.

    Likewise - had none of this on my C1 or CX - does your FPS dip under the minimum avail for the spec? like if youre frequently under like 40 fps

    I had the CX48 on release, but i went "down" to the AW OLED but the size change just bothered me to no end so i flipped it and went back to another 48 inch. Everything just feels right again.
