Still though, it's very silly how there isn't a single CPU, not a single one between such huge quantity of different models, that has 8 P cores and no E cores. There's only one with 6 P cores and that's it. Not sure what's that about.
AMD is going assymetrical as well. But the good news is that means devs are gonna have to figure it out.
What 4060 Ti 16GB? I wasnt aware of such a GPU. I think youre confusing the 16GB generic 4060.
There is so much untapped processing power in current CPUs. If love for games to utilize E-cores for performance benefits. Id love to see games utilize iGPUs for extra frames
It was the Ti version. MY bad.
Can you stretch a 7600/AM5 platform? Give you longer legs. 7600 comes with a cooler too.
yeah but largely depends on the aio's performance.
Thank you found a pretty in depth review and according to this guy it performs really well keeping it cool.
A 16gb varient of the 4060 ti was already announced and will be released in July. At 500 USD. Means a 100 USD more for 8Gb higher VRAM, when prices for Nvidia at current are probably less than 25 USD. So, it's overpriced, as usual, but maybe be a better option than the current offerings.
A fan itself is enough to keep the 7900X cool.Should a 240 rad being able to keep a 7900x cool enough?
My wife decided she wants to play Starfield and grabbed her a nice prebuilt f a pretty nice discount since it was damaged in transit and was rejected by the original buyer.
Wont be able to get it hooked up for a week or so as we are heading out of town but snagged this for $3k
I know. My post after his made that clear.
Hard to tell another person what $400 is worth to them. A 4080 is probably around 30% faster than a 4070Ti, but both will make short work out of anything you could play now, so I guess it's kind of question of how often do you intend to upgrade your card? If you're hoping to keep it for 5+ years then it's usually worth it to reach a bit, but if you're gonna get a new one in 2 years you'll probably never see much difference.
Instead of the KF model, get the K. Take it from me, having that iGPU is so handy for diagnosing errors.
I have such a hard time ever recommending the 4080 or 4070 Ti. The value is just so awful.
They're not really a bad value, they just aren't a better value than the premium tier, as they traditionally are.
Apparently the the iGPU can be useful for video encoding, even if you use a discrete GPU, too.
I’d buy the 4080 just for the vram alone. Give it way more long term legs.
Second build has more storage, which is a definite plus (though easily upgraded).
Yes, switch to the K instead of KF. That would be my only change. What GPU are you planning to get?
Thanks Kosmo, might go with the second build then if that’s the case!
Will do, I’ll probably go with build #2 that I listed which has the Inno3D GeForce RTX 4080 ICHILL X3 16GB. An extra $400 compared to the original build.
The K model has an internal GPU. You hope you never need it, but its a life saver if you have GPU troubles.
Awesome, guess I’ll go with the second build.
Depending on how much data you have, grab 2 of these:
Probably NAS drive.
He is asking for NAS drive. These aren't it. Good point on multiple copies though. Having a copy off-site in cloud service is a good idea in general...but not the only copy.
He says "NAS?" with a question mark because he doesn't know what he needs/wants... he just wants to back up his data.
i use asus ai mesh and yeah it should switch to whichever router has the best connection for your device.
Using the same thing thx!!!
I would consider maybe a video card upgrade instead if you want to be able to do RT really well.
Those are like literally the most unreliable and crappy of all options.
144.... This would greatly depend on you graphics settings and use if DLSS/FSR.
Yeah, best bet is to get 2 or 4 bay small NAS from say Synology and 2-4 NAS drives. Won't be super cheap, but also won't be that expensive and fairly reliable and versatile.
There is quite a cost and performance gap between a 4070 and 4080. The 4070 Ti falls between those in terms of cost and is quite a bit better than the 4070. The 6950XT is a much better value than anyone of those,
This'll be a solid, budget friendly option. If you don't mind open box options, sometimes Amazon has 6700 XT's for around $250. I purchased one and haven't had a problem. You'll get an extra 15% in performance for around the same monies as a new 6600/6650 XT.
