Probably you, you purchased a nother 5090 and im pretty sure you also have a 9 9950X3D




Did you try to overclock the card on the 12HPWHR cable?

Nope just had some lines straight up and down through my display

Tried reseating it, different cables even tried on a different monitor, all the same

Crap picture on how they looked on my OLED but had to get fairly close as they were pretty fine lines but they were there

jesus christ.... overclocking it? you mad?

i tried to tame this thing so it doesn't use 575W out the box.

averaging 490W now. this thing kicks out a fuck load of heat.

i'd love to OC the shit out of it but fuck that.
 
I have a 4070 Super... SUPER LAME :lollipop_pensive:


Nah just kiddin', it's been great so far.
 
You also have to take monitors, peripherals, audio, and special stuff like sim rigs, arcade sticks, etc. into consideration.

The best specs can still deliver a bad experience if everything else sucks, or even if simple things like V-Sync/G-SYNC aren't set up correctly which is incredibly common.
 
Eh, I'll join! Certainly not the best, but about to be upgraded soon anyway…

EVGA FTW 3090Ti

You are right
 
Had a 4070 and traded it for a 7900 XTX with my retard friend who I bully. Then I realized it was wank with RT and instantly knocks you back a gen or two. So I sold the 7900 XTX and bught a 4070 Super with change in my pocket.

Rest is:
13600k
32GB
1TB Samsung m.2
2x 4TB HDD
Asus ROG PG42UQ OLED

Granted i have like 5 pcs and none of these are either of my 2 main rigs.

One is a 220gt + ryzen 2600 system in my garden house, although technically i am streaming from another pc, but technically also playing on it, does that count?
Another has a 9600gt+2500k, used for youtube in the gym, it could run some games pretty well back in the day, last thing ive played on it was hades, but ive been using chromecast instead of it for like 2 years now.

Worst i could build from what i have is Geforce 220GT + i5-2500k.

I have a close friend who is actively rocking 1050ti and an AMD FX CPU in 2025 (not on gaf and only plays the original Crysis and farming sim tho)

We need to resurrect the "Race your PC" thread from NeoGAF of old.



I think before my hiatus from serious PC gaming I had the second fastest GTX 570?
I remember not too long ago someone on here had an absolute monster of a RTX 3060Ti ida loved to see that thing racing against 3070s and the ilk.
We really should start those threads again, maybe itll reignite my love of min/maxing PC builds.
We just need a benchmark set we can all agree too.
3D Mark aint free anymore right?




EDIT: Found the thread:






Yup I had the second fastest GTX 570.
I still have that GPU too.....could never find a good buyer for that GPU so its just sitting in my store room.
