    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    Im awaiting AMD - i wanted Nvidia but all the cards outside of FE and Zotac look like shoeboxes. AMD may not be much better but im sure it will be cheaper and at least enough of an upgrade to run my games at 4k120. Plus i want the liquid devil ultimate if they do it again.

    So basically Frame Generation is like that guy who pulls out a stack of $100 bills but only the top bill and bottom bill are 100 and the rest are 1s and 5s

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    I dont think AMD will have an uplift like Nvidia but even 40% will be more than enough for 95% of what i play to always max out 4k138hz

    My MC has about 30-40 cards still and I see people trying to sell them on FB for $4000 🤣🤣🤣

    I wonder what time BB cards will go on sale. Gotta use that credit on something, and a gpu sounds about right.

    Im getting an FE if possible on release - if not microcenter will have ample cards. That aside the 6900XT being down to $630 was a crazy deal at MC.

    Odyssey line is plagued with technical issues and poor support by Samsung - reddit horror stories of people on their 3rd or 4th panel should be enough to steer even the most diehard fanboy away from touching that line even with someone elses fingers. Sure some people have had luck by the lottery...

    I generally never notice much issue with UW support but i dont play a ton of varying games - Currently i have a C2 and the Asus PG48UQ trying to decide if its worth the extra $500 vs the C2, which it really doesnt. Sure it gets rid of some "TV" annoyances but cant say its worth $500 more. LG...

    Yeah mobos being $700 almost for decent ones is meh. The Ace was $698 and Hero $699. Gaming perf is better but not enough to adopt the platform just yet. Seems this gen all you will really want is a 4090.

    For work its always 3-4 screens - makes management so much better than 1 wide screen.

    Boxing to sell items and make plat is different from playing with my friends. I boxed raids to sell raid loot, sometimes I boxed with others that boxed. Your blanket statement infers that everyone who boxes doesn’t play with others which is not factual at all.

    Went to MC to get the AMD stuff but decided to wait since I don’t see the MSI Godlike or Ace in store. Ended up picking up the PG48UQ, will use until one of those 45 inch OLEDs come out.

    This reminds me of when we were kids we’d go outside and play actual physical sports. However now we play those sports on a console or PC. Same thing in a sense but at the same time something is lost. I don’t have the numbers you speak of but I was in EQ ever since FoH was in the beta. Hell I...

    Ashes of Creation

    I can’t say which game I put the most time in but I remember the HWL grind in vanilla WOW at like 10hr a day. However Lodizal, Stormfeather and I was boxing a full group in everything but WOW. I miss EQW and ShowsEQ 😂

    Ashes of Creation

    I grew up in EQ1, I slept at my PC for Lodizal and Stormfeather. I remember the hood and bad but shit being hard and needing to make real friends on your local server was the point. Instancing to “me” ruins the community feel. How is removing instancing limiting participation? If it was up to me...

    Yes, making things simple and dumbed down to require no effort of being a community is never good. In the end people don’t try to be social or hardly amiable, they queue, pew pew, and bounce. There is no sense of being part of anything other than a machine that allows everything to be done...

    My 5950x with MEG ACE ran like a pro with no issues at all As far as water cooling, yes it can be a pain to upgrade if you don’t plan your runs right and make draining it a chore but it’s only issue I had was I like to leave my PC on 24/7 so on my next build I’m going to use the Leakshield or...

    Ashes of Creation

    VG was flawed sure but still quite unique and enjoyable. To me current MMOs lack the community feel that older MMOs had and I kinda blame that on instancing and things like being able to queue with other realms. In EQ, EQ2, and VQ(even if all aren’t currently huge hits) you more or less had to...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    I’m impressed with these CPUs honestly. Only thing I’m pondering is water cooling. The CPU made to be at 95c means it will heat up water quicker than traditionally seen no? I guess this gives me justification for making a 4 rad loop in the HAF 700 EVO.

    Computer Issues

    The C1 was weird with a pc which is why i got rid of it. It presented a bunch of issues that my CX48 never had similar to what you’re experiencing. The C2 42 was just $999 and Asus more PC oriented 42 and 48 inch screens just came out.

    My entire rig is going to my best friend as a gift so im going to build another in the HAF 700 EVO. Currently aiming for the 7900X and 4090 in a 3 or 4 radiator setup :eek: - The HAF is fairly massive and can fit 2 rads up top, 1 on side, and 1 on bottom. Also i was waiting on that ASUS PG42UQ...
