    I get the 4090 is "The best in the market" I'm just not really into spending my 2 months worth of savings (If I were to have that kind of money) to one graphics card and wait it off for other parts. 

    If you want value then buy a used 3080 or 6800XT, those cards are unbeatable in terms of value. Or wait 3-6 months for next-gen mid-range card to release.

    Everything imported with a value under 200$ is tax-free, shipping from the US via a forwarding company i've used many times before is 9$/kg. Maybe not $20, but something around that, 25$ max. Kind of concerned about everybody saying the zalman is very very loud, maybe a 600w be quiet! SYSTEM POWER 9 will be a better option?

    System power 9 is a very old multi-rail design. Questionable if you want a power hungry GPU.

    Newegg has this deal for 58USD  right now, idk if you can buy from Newegg with your company.

     

    If you're from Romania can't you buy from Amazon.de? https://www.amazon.de/dp/B017NW4P1M?tag=pcp05-21&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1

     

    ah nvm you're from Moldova. Didn't know people speak Romanian in Moldova. 🙃

    Why the hell would u use a next gen card and a zen 3 cpu that is gonna do so much bottlenecking get a better rdna 2 card 

    Do you not read the posts you respond to? He plans to get a 4K display. At 4K 4090+5700g will be faster than any other combination involving slower GPUs. And not a little bit faster. A LOT faster. Bottlenecking is irrelevant here. Something will always be the limiting factor.

    Huge. A huge bottleneck. Even on 1440p.

     

    What you should do instead of the 4090 is a 1440p high refresh (240Hz) monitor and a high end card like the RTX 3080 or a Radeon 6800/6800XT.

    It doesn't matter that it's a huge bottleneck. If he plans to go to 4K it will become less important and in 1080p it will still be faster than 3080 or 6800xt...

    Thanks for all the responses. It was more about the configuration on the monitor settings rather than connecting the peripherals but I appreciate your answers. And yes, it's at 165Hz and using the display port it came with. Also have FreeSync enabled.

    For the monitor settings you mostly want to look at the reviews and what they recommend, there is no general best configuration, each monitor is different. 

  6. Going from a Razer to a laptop that costs 1500 usd will always feel like a downgrade. So what does "decent" mean? 

     

     

    You can get a last gen AMD advantage laptop for 1500 https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-Advantage-6800M-Keyboard-Win-Home,/dp/B09TKH7JTV/ref=sr_1_5?crid=3Q4BCELTZVCXU&keywords=6800m&qid=1667145354&qu=eyJxc2MiOiI1LjAxIiwicXNhIjoiMy40NiIsInFzcCI6IjIuMDAifQ%3D%3D&sprefix=6800%2Caps%2C173&sr=8-5 that would kick ass in most games, considering the GPU matches 3070ti-3080

     

    And Ryzen 5980HX is still more than fast enough.

    I was given the case with power supply from my oncle. It's indeed old. I only found 1 cable with it.

     

    I got the RTX 3080ti from someone and was given his power supply cable, which didn't fit mine.

     

    If I use this current cable, what will happen? Should I get  new Power Supply in case?

    The card will work, however pulling over 8 amps through 18 awg cable is not advisable. The cable/connectors will heat up during longer game sessions.

    well, according to some bottleneck calculators my 6600k and 1050 ti are a balanced pair so i have a slightly faster cpu and he has much better gpu so i think it should still hold up well at 1080p remember it's the flagship card of it's time

    That i5 was pretty much as fast as you could get when 980Ti launched. So do you think the GPU gained speed or CPU slowed down since then? The combination worked as well back then as it does now, just the games got more demanding, replacing one part of the equation isn't going to help much. It might help a few percentage points in some games.

    Ohh that's specifically for Seasonic products.

     

    I'm not sure which brand the PCIe cable is, but it's written 18AWG. Do I really need a 16 AWG? If so, I guess i'll have to buy a new Power Supply since I can't seem to find a new cable.

    Your unit is pretty old so it doesn't have proper 300W daisy chained cables.

     

    Did you buy it as a prebuilt or did you lose the cables? Since it should have had 2 cables in the box originally.

    are you serious? quadcores without hyperthreading are obsolete for gaming nowdays.

    So is a 980Ti?

    Well, apparently this old gen. i5 is bottlenecking it now, thats why I asked.

     

    Got the ddr4 3200 , 16 gb waiting for new mobo. Got it as a gift. 

    Well if you have DDR4 then you pretty much have to go for Adler Lake, because 5800x3d is over your entire budget of 300.
