I'm rather surprised you do at all, being perfectly frank xD'
Ah yes that's more in line, you can call me a fever dream from distant times~
 
But in all seriousness I used to be quite present in the forums in the past and even sought to be part of staff so I could sneak peak @TVwazhere and @Morgan MLGmanon the locker room :3 however I end up making the mistake of getting ahead of the administration of 2 popular imageboards (derpibooru and furbooru) which killed my free time.
Aaaww, I can see that I'm not the only one up to some blushing attempts in here! You're too kind! I can only thank you for all the great support in the past, specially on the Tier List projects.
Your favourite dudette has not yet forgotten about you! It is true it has been too long! But I might start poking around a bit more once again.
Had to leave the best for last! One day I'd be the one to manage it! Teheheh!
 
Feels like a pupil reaches the master scenario even :3
 
And for everyone's dear attention:

Do as many weather simulations as you need, the clouds will always say you're cute :3
 
And @TVwazhereis still handsome

Daaww Hey there!
 
I appreciate the nod, surely an air of nostalgia! It feels like it's been so long ago!
 
OP; you might end up hooked up to the forum or not, it depends on how much of a hobby the tech deal really grows inside you. I'd say that learning more in order to help folk in here can be a really nice drive, otherwise simply seeing this place for consultation time to time will usually work out nicely too.
 
To both cases, being part of a thread and mainly making your own the first to consider is if you're putting enough will and effort into it because it is very easy to spot meaningless threads where those experience with good stuff to speak will ignore. Give a little googling on the matter first, watch some tech channels in youtube and then come here with constructive doubts to nail down what you're up to~

I know the feeling, I also have a 1080 Ti... a Founders Edition one which I got literally on release month and nowadays I can genuinely resell it for higher than I paid for it then 3 years later which is both crazy and tempting given my country of residence reality.
 
Thing is, there's absolutely NO RX5000 series cards for sale in the entire country and the RTX 3080 also comes at a massive premium so as much as I'd love the brand new stuff I'm also just keeping the old Pascal beast.
 
One thing that is worth checking on to increase performance is always making sure you run games on DX11 or Vulkan instead when available and if you need DX12 make sure you know how to disable Async Compute. Gotta also make sure to disable "high precision event timer" on both windows and BIOS.
 
High Precision Event Timer is a very old legacy piece of driver from the early 2000's that has lost it's purpose nowadays and actually harms performance a little due to adding a bit of latency:

Given the 1080 Ti is a 3060 Ti rasterization performance wise and it can still play most games just fine if you adjust settings rather than crank everything to max I think the right call is keep it until things normalize.

Get a 10400F, it’s a lot cheaper and nearly as good in gaming. For 1440p and 4K the difference would be almost none

It doesn't really matter... you should stream with NVENC anyways nowadays.
 
To be 100% frank I'd get a discounted i7 9700KF since it will give the best gaming performance and then afford the RTX 2080 Ti and stream using it's insanely good NVENC capability.

I'll accept the compromise, being honest!
Appreciate the reply as a whole, I'm usually less pick there and more image orientated hehe but I understand it perfectly, cheers!

Why? 240hz is a gimmick, past 165hz the frametime windows becomes too narrow to be meaningfully perceptible so any 1440p165hz panel is a better purchase for the money, you'll even be getting IPS or VA for better image quality on top of it.
 
If you still want 240hz no matter what because CSGO and what not then yeah get a 3070 and put all your money into a CPU and memory config to push that many frames. You know i7/i9 or this new Ryzen releasing soon.

First thing you need to figure out is what refresh rate you want. If you want 60hz then you will not have to worry yourself with bottlenecks using a R5 3600, this processor can keep up 60fps on any game yet and it'll ever only not be enough by the time you're comfortable replacing it.
 
The thing about the highest end video cards not being recommended for 1080p any more is that you'll likely not be able to get every last fps possible from them as the CPU will limit you before it but then you're already on the hundreds of frames, therefore if you want to limit yourself to 60fps there's nothign to worry about regarding CPU.
 
Then having a RTX 3070 or specially the RTX 3080 for 1080p will allow you to max settings any game you want, throw all ultras for fun... RTX 2060 will never be bottlenecked by a R5 3600 but might also not manage ultra all in the latest games where you'd need to balance settings.

nVidia naming schemes confusing people since always xd
 
NVLink is a Quadro only feature, only the connector is shared so for all intents and purposes the RTX 3090 indeed only has SLI which like stated is discontinued.
 
OP: Buying 2 RTX 3090 unless you have ultra specific hardware acceleration task that can benefit from it would be a giant waste of money for "bragging rights" that are more likely to backfire as people will mock you for it.

For the same reason why mATX builds are becoming so scarce... the manufacturers thinks they know what the majority wants and only pushes that to the market, then the market on the other hand only has that for an option so that's what public in general buy making it a vicious cycle.
 
People think the market is dictated by the consumer but in reality it is the consumer who's dictated by the market.
