Yeah definitely! Its hard to say. I mean people could also think that TSMC / Taiwan could also get into trouble soon, which could cause a shortage, nobody can know for sure. That's also another reason, maybe NOT to insist as much as he did

Hi guys, I have an ASUS PCE-AC68 wifi card in a PCI slot above the GPU slot, and apparently every time I download anything the GPU Signal on my monitor gets messed up (flickering, getting distorted). Has anyone experienced something like this? When downloading with the ASUS wifi card, problems occur. (RTX GPU) When swapping out the RTX GPU with Radeon HD 7770, problems are gone. (Radeon GPU) When swapping out the ASUS wifi card with the TP-Link wifi card, problems are gone. (RTX GPU) When downloading with cable, Problems are gone. (RTX GPU) The wifi card isn't touching the RTX GPU backplate, I even isolated it with tape at one point. Any ideas? They are mounted as follows:

That's exactly the thing. Many channels may be actually trying to give honest reviews and be transparent, but when some of the big guys pull a move like this, it damages the credibility of other channels as well as of course more people will think like this, especially if they don't follow every video of every content maker and just saw this one video and got burnt.

Honestly I disagree. I honestly love for example; when Linus does hot takes, but then goes out and admits it and apologizes for it. For example if someone followed J2C, bought a GPU, prices dropped 300-400USD, that person lost money due to Jay's insistent bad advice. That's a lot of lost money. It's OK to be wrong, it happens, could be bad sources, could be sources paid(by Nvidia/board partners) to tell Jay a narrative, could be Jay himself honestly believing the prediction. It happens. However when people follow it, it turns out to be wrong, they lose money and he doesn't even acknowledge it or apologize, in my eyes, he turns out to be an untrustworthy channel and I have ZERO reason to believe anything else he says. Those two cents turn out to be very expensive bills. Both for the people who listened and for his credibility.

What was he claiming about PSUs? Don't think I heard about this.

It's because my motherboard at home uses this, and I was wondering if I could use a WIFI card in that slot. But I can see that it's likely a NO.

I know that PCI-E ports are used for GPU's, expansion cards, wifi cards etc. But what the heck uses PCI slots?? Never seen a wifi card that can use it for example, yet they still exist?? - Am I missing something?

What's psus? Yeah im surprised he hasn't made a followup video regarding the controversial video this topic is about. Just like fully ignoring the fact.

Do you run them in some sort of SLI, or just in two separate machines? Just curious by your phrasing. Also heck yeah, sounds like you found a deal.

Lol Nvidia slashing pricing of 3090 ti yet again. I wonder if their low-mid end also will be slashed.

Wow thanks so much for clarifying! Alright then I'm set to figure out which one to get from mere!

Thanks for clarifying. But is unreal trying to move away from the proprietary libraries or ISN'T it ? - please clarify.

So I found this old forum topic which pretty much answered it for me: CUDA or OpenCL - Community / Community & Industry Discussion - Unreal Engine Forums

Trying to figure out a possible gpu for that purpose in VR game dev using UNREAL using HTC VIVE PRO EYE - Combined resolution of 2880 x 1600 pixels and 615 PPI. Possible contenders, likely not the 3080ti due to its pricing though. 6800XT/6900XT, RTX 3080/3080TI

Can you guys make some arguments on why people should buy now or on why people should wait? Prices for new GPU's namely RTX 3080 has just come down til 6000 DKK (about 822USD) and I'm not sure if it's a "decent/good" price, compared to other launches or still inflated.

Hi guys, So my moms home just got upgraded to 1000/1000 mbps, which router for a decent/low/good price could recommend, which can handle that? Their current router is some old netgear, can do about 500mbps on wired download and about 250mbps download on wifi. Would like to have access to the full bandwidth. Something good price/performance wise if possible?

It's Corsair TX650M Alright thanks for the input. I guess she's better off with it so far then. Maybe we can just stick to upgrading the gpu only then.

Yeah so the situation is that my sister is working on Unreal engine 4 game/art development. My current desktop is the one with 7600k & Full ATX motherboard. (750W PSU 80+Gold Corsair) My living room pc 2400g (Mini itx) tiny HTPC. (450W Integra PSU) Her current pc: i7-3820 with GTX 1060 (650W 80+ Gold PSU Corsair) and she's experiencing major lag issues. When we checked usage, we saw that the GTX 1060 was a major bottleneck. So GPU upgrade is necessary. However I was wondering, if she was to buy a 3070 or 3070ti or similar, if it would be worthwhile if she got my setup (7600k) for her 3070/ti and I got her old setup. I can manage with her setup I think, I don't play very CPU intensive games other than CSGO & Rimworld (Heavily modded). For anything above 3070/ti it seems she would need a higher wattage CPU than her 650 anyway. That's why I thought just swapping PC's. Also she uses a raid card to run like 4-6 harddrives in her PC, so Mini ITX isn't an option. (Some of her old SATA ports on the old mobo aren't working xD)

Is there a cpu upgrade on that old motherboard/platform that's good to upgrade to? I saw old CPU's are cheap, because they rarely have functional motherboard, so a lot of cpu excess on the market?

Thanks man! that made me laugh hah!! I guess rough working days on an aging platform huh

Let me rephrase my question. So if you had a gun to your head, Which of the two platforms would you pick to develop Unreal Engine 4 games?

So for unreal engine 4 development you would suggest the 7600k over the 3820? paired with the 3070ti?

Hi, The choice is between these two available systems to avoid a whole platform update. I7 3820 - 16gb DDR3 + 3070ti i5 7600k - 16gb DDR4 + 3070ti Which do you think is best for unreal engine 4 game dev? No don't suggest platform upgrades...

Yeah Nimez drivers. Am using them today on my other pc with the old radeon card on em. Just wondering how it would work with drivers and two "generations" of cards. Like would you need to have two versions of drivers installed? - Would both work on newest? Or Older?

So in case you have a Radeon 2400G (vega 11 gpu) and you install a radeon HD 7770 gpu, which drivers should you install??? So the 2400g drivers will of course be newer, can the other radeon card run on those? - will you be forced to use older drivers? Before you say "don't do it, the igpu is just as fast" this is a theoretical question.
