  1. 1) In theory it should be since you have more "virtual space" at your disposal, but this can be a personal thing. I know those who would still rather have two 16:9's side by side. 2) They are the exact same. 3) It's not taller, a 34 inch ultrawide is basically a 27 inch 16:9 stretched to the sides. 4) I prefer ultrawide
  2. Yes, the whole thing. I also would like to note I run my RX 6950XT system on a 650w PSU.
  3. What are your display settings? Like resolution and refresh rate.
  4. It really boils down to how much you want Ray Tracing. If you're okay going without Ray Tracing then the 7900XTX is the better product as its slightly faster at raster and has more VRAM. If you want to be able to at least experiment with Ray Tracing than the RTX 4080 will be faster at that.
  5. There is a specific user case for this piece of hardware, if you won't be doing it then it's rather pointless.
  6. LMG should take a deep breath and revaluate how the business is being run entirely. You guys went from top tier tech entertainment to a video making machine absent of care... it has become so evident the greed, how you must make every single dollar possible out of everything and morality be damned. Slow down the pace, scale back a little, get into a position it actually works and most importantly, for the love of God, do not buy a fight with your direct 'competition'. Do you really think nobody who follows LTT also doesn't follow Gamer Nexus and Hardware Unboxed? don't you understand how people watch all these channels together? That you guys share an audience? Trying to divide people and buy a fight by being this dismissive and reckless was never, NEVER, going to produce good results to you guys...
  7. I am disappointed at the proportion this issue has taken. I'm with both LTT and Hardware Unboxed since the beginning of both channels in YouTube and I always appreciated both tremendously for what they were. Seeing LTT attack HW in such a mediocre manner has been upsetting. I don't often have the patience to watch Gamer Nexus videos but I gotta say, that video was a bomb of reality that LTT should pay attention to and try to improve from, I have rewatched more than once at this point.
  8. More like they care about the wrong numbers.
  9. Personally speaking (I got an i7 10700KF paired with the RX6950XT) I don't really feel limited by the CPU while gaming at 3440x1440p... I would say that any performance gap here would be negligible.
  10. To be honest The Crew 2 was the worst racing game I ever tried in my life.
  11. They are much of the same, just the 6950xt is slightly polished, easier to get bit higher frequencies.
  12. I run my i7 10700KF and RX6950XT off a 650W PSU without issues, you'll be fine.
  13. To be fair the 7900XTX is actually rather competent at ray tracing all things considered. I would go with it simply because as noted it is the best performing card of the bunch on raster which is still more important to me. It enables Ray Tracing to a decent enough level if you want to experiment it, FSR vs DLSS is eh... DLSS (2.0) tends to be a bit better through out but it's really not that big deal I think... DLSS 3.0 frame generation is completely worthless imo. I guess considering your new monitor and expectations this is between the 7900XTX and 4080 due to performance, vram and so on. The deciding factor will really be down to "do I want that extra bit of RT performance or not?"
  14. It's fine, total system consumption will peak at 500w, My i7 10700KF+RX6900XT never crossed it and runs flawlessly on a TX650M. They always over shoot the wattage because (specially in the past) people would buy atrociously bad PSU units, so having a large wattage headroom would keep things on the safer side, but the truth is a normal desktop with an i7/i9-r7/r9 and a 6950XT will never draw more wattage than a 650W decent unit can provide. I personally disagree with the take of going 4070 due their PSU since as pointed it does not matter.
  15. Do you even need this? Are you feeling limited in any way? I have an i7 10700K which is essentially an i9 9900K on my gaming rig and for games, media consumption, desktop general use etc... it completely satisfies and allows my RX6950XT to be fully utilized in any game (1440p). There is no such thing as a bottleneck here. I don't think you need to upgrade from this i9 9900K at all if your primary user case is gaming, what video card and monitor are you using/going to use?
