  1. I bought used iPhone 12 to test iOS as for next phone I would actually consider iPhone now they have type-C. I have been using android since 2016, last 3 years I had Galaxy S20 FE (still have it actually). Well in general, iOS is fine. It is what I expected. I don't hate it, I don't love it. It is good OS but nothing special TBH. Only things I miss are things that I would get with Pro version. So I guess you would be fine with iPhone. S23 Ultra is more of the same but faster and that bit better than S22 so kinda boring but simple choice. I would go with Fold 5 if you have money and are really adventurous. Only reliability is a bit questionable.
  2. Honestly probably save money and build something new( new to you, can be used, just newer parts). I had RX 480 on i5 4430 and it was bottlenecked by CPU.
  3. I have been running developer preview since day one. So windows is good guess I think.
  4. It is something going on. With this driver one version older Windows seems to recognize it but AMD software doesn't. But it is tradeoff I'm will to take for a while. I will wait for next driver. If it doesn't fix stuff I will just reinstall windows and be done with it.
  5. Well I did another DDU and I deleted everything else left AMD from today manually. And installed a version back drivers and we are off, everything showing up normally now.
  6. Hello. I replaced my RX480 with RX6950XT and I'm having some odd behavior. When I try to launch Forza Horizon 5 I get error that driver is not found ( see attached image). But if I ignore warning performance is completely normal. I also ran 3D Mark and numbers seems reasonable, in line with what is average for RX6950XT. But neither GPU-Z nor HWInfo can read stats, clock, temperature, fan speed etc. But they are in Radeon Software. I did DDU in safe mode and installation of latest drivers. Any idea? I suspect Windows things considering I'm running developer preview but any help would be appriciated.
  7. I felt it is decent time to upgrade yeah. It was time to change my RX480 4GB. I bought the rest of PC early 2021 but stuck with RX480 because we know how prices of GPUs were back then. I feel late last year prices were already at normal more or less. You could get RX 6800 for about 500€. But as others have said, if you don't feel you need performance now you can wait a bit longer. But yeah, if you have been holding off for purchase for a while now it is I think decent enough time to pull the trigger. RX6700XT are decent price now, so are RX6950XT.
  8. Ok fair point. For me it was the best because it is smaller.
  9. Thank you everyone for help. I ordered RX6950XT from Amazon.es It is lowest price I could find in Europe. Stock AMD design. I will try with this case and we will see how it goes. I checked and it is exactly 5 years and a week since I ordered my current RX480 4GB So it is getting retired finally. If it helps anyone here is the link. https://www.amazon.es/AMD-Tarjeta-gráfica-DisplayPort-Frequency/dp/B0BKPT56HK/ref=sr_1_1?__mk_es_ES=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&crid=1KL6MO25HD4SH&keywords=rx+6950&qid=1683387493&sprefix=rx6950%2Caps%2C91&sr=8-1
  10. Hey, if you are interested there is also option of stock AMD design on Amazon ES. I would assume they send to Croatia since you are in EU. I just got myself one. https://www.amazon.es/AMD-Tarjeta-gráfica-DisplayPort-Frequency/dp/B0BKPT56HK/ref=sr_1_1?__mk_es_ES=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&crid=1KL6MO25HD4SH&keywords=rx+6950&qid=1683387493&sprefix=rx6950%2Caps%2C91&sr=8-1 Pozdrav sosed
  11. Ok yeah that I think we all can agree that prices have gone insane. But I'm at the point where I can either bite the bullet at current prices or don't game at all (I play racing and AAA games). I like to vote with my wallet but I'm not sure I can take it that much longer. Ok that is true. PS5 has 16 gb of VRAM I think so 6950 should be good for a good while. One more question. I have NZXT H510. I'm a bit afriad that it wouldn't be able to cool card with such power draw in this hotbox case. Currently rx480 is 150W tdp, 6950 is about three times as much. Any experience or thoughts?
  12. Why do you think 4070 should be 400? Because in additional research I have come to about 10-15% better performance for RX6950XT at about 10% higher price than 4070. Just curious. I haven't made up my mind.
  13. Yeah, I can get RX 6950XT for 680€ from Amazon so for about 20€ more it is go to option compared to RX 6900. And cheapest RTX 4070 is 615€ at my door. Gainward RTX 4070 Next RTX 4070 from more reputable brand would be 665 €. Zotac It is not very straight cut this. If I was all about only gaming sure AMD FTW in this case. But Cuda features are tempting. But then again, not sure I would really utilize them since I have workloads that use them at my work.
  14. I could get used one for about the half of the price of RX 6950XT. New ones are about 400-450€. I thought it would be easier to be buying this stuff when I'm older and have money but I'm just too cheap I see
  15. That is the thing yeah. Honestly RX 6800 for 500€ would be best choice for me. But they don't exist, as far as I can see. But then again, even when at some point RX 7700 (XT) land they will be probably about 550 € at least. And this leaves me waiting. I might just pull trigger and I should be good for next 3 years on 1440p ultrawide. I could save 250€ with going with used 3070 ti though... Any thought about that?
  16. It would be new. Not from west Europe so options are limited to mostly western stores that will send to us when you are buying this stuff. Or buy in Slovenia and overpay.
  17. Soo. I was planning to replace my GPU 2 and a half years ago and we all know what happened. So I have been stuck on RX 480 4GB for a while now. And now even FH5 is not really running anymore on it so I'm getting close to buying new one. Now I was wanting to wait for RX 7800 and RX 7700 but they don't seem to be right around the corner. And since RX 6800 and 6800XT are not that much cheaper than RX 6950XT I'm kinda looking at that. But I also kinda dig Nvidia RTX 4070. But prices for RTX 4070 with decent cooler and thereabout with RX6950XT. So what to go for? AMD has more VRAM, better overall performance. Nvidia is newer, less power consumption ( I have RM 750 PSU) and has ability to be used for AI. Any reccomendations?
  18. I have been asking myself same thing. For me the bigest problem is that RX 6800 nad 6800XT stock seems to be mostly gone and are hard to find. So you are stuck with RX 6950 for about 100-150 € more or RX 6700XT which are a bit weaker than what I would like. Maybe it is Nvidia time for me, I don't know...
  19. Oh made by PNY I assume? I handled many of them in last year. We use it for Deep Learning applications.
  20. Hello everyone. I have some 8 year old Samsung 27" monitor with TV tuner even I think (not sure, never used it). It is FHD and TN panel. Now this monitor is used as computer monitor and as TV. It is mounted on a wall. I was looking at getting something bigger and newer but I want one thing and that is included speakers. I don't like having additional stuff on my table since it is not as clean looking. I was looking at 32" or 34" ultrawide monitors with refresh rate of 120Hz or more and noticed ones with speakers are few and far between. Does anyone know any good gaming monitors with integrated speakers? Or should I just let this go and buy something without speakers and use headphones? Another possible chance was also 40", 43" TV. But they are all 60Hz right? Which is same as current monitor basically. Although higher resolution since most are 4K. And no OLEDs at that size as far as I know. No firm budget, let's say about 600€ in Germany (not German but can order from some stores).
  21. So I should consider adjusting pump a bit higher if I want better performance? I have currently some stock Gigabyte curve.
  22. I would recommend EK-AIO Basic 240 but since you are UK not sure sure how it is with additional charges if you order directly from them? https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-aio-basic-240
  23. Well I managed it to sort it. Problem were the latest AMD drivers. I DDUed them and installed one version prior and now I have sound.
