    Of course it's fake. Valve doesn't contact people on Discord, period.

    I don't think water boils at 42 celsius, at least at sea level
     
    For human hands, it is warm to the touch. But for an HDD, it is safe temperature. Once it gets into the 50s you might worry a little.

    Depends.
     
    If you're playing at settings reasonable for a card like this (e.g. 1440p maxed out), unlikely.
     
    If you're playing at lower settings (e.g. 1080p, no RTX features, etc.), probably, but pretty much every CPU will do that. If that is your use case and you don't plan on upgrading your monitor, then I don't recommend getting this card.

    Its probably a windows error. I would not care as it does not effect performance.

    So you're not building any time soon? If not, then I'd just wait and see what's available when you're ready to build.
    As for the build you have, you'll run out of space pretty quickly if you play more than a few games on a 1TB drive.
    I'd also probably get a different monitor, but it's not a terrible choice. You're not too far off a nice ultrawide monitor at that price.
    You can get Windows off Reddit, use the money saved to get nicer speakers like a pair of Mackie CR3s.

    Haha, reads and writes (it's mainly writes, reads really don't affect a drive much) really aren't an issue at all. This isn't 2011.

    nox_ reacted to Zando_ in What's the cheapest gpu that can do 4k hdr at 60hz?   
    Laptop CPU? Other than weird chips from China with a laptop chip shoved onto a desktop substrate and IHS, you can't really buy them. If you mean the whole laptop, most laptops can probably do that. You'd need to see which ones are actually available in your market (I'm in the US, the tech market for me will be very different from Budapest), and then look through the spec pages, if the OEMs are at all decent they should list the maximum external res they support.

    If you ask the buyer, and the seller, then yes - because there were buyers
     
    When no buyers, you lower price.

    You're disappointed that the newly released mid range XX70 card which costs $500 performs the same as the last generation flagship XX80 Ti card which cost $1200?

    Most of the satellite speakers are 💩, not all but most of them. Would not even compare them to decent bookshelf's or floor standing speakers, this is based on my taste and experience and some might disagree, I'm not an audio pro by any means just enjoy audio stuff.

    There are a lot of benchmarks that are "simulated performance" on the internet, any channel that does not show the hardware physically on camera shouldn't be trusted.
    If you were getting a good average FPS then there is no problem, especially if your monitor is a 144Hz or 165Hz monitor because that means your refresh rate is above the monitor.

    well better units cost as much as the 850w leadex anyways and yep if someone never wants to get a gpu and only use their computer for office etc then i wouldnt recommend a 850w psu

    We're in a weird place with ram where a couple games can use a ton of ram, and we're also on the cusp of a DDR5 release. There's gonna be a ton of used memory in the future so don't stress about buying ram right this second.

    i got a cx650m a few months ago reasoning that gpus will get more efficient so i will never need more but now i have a 3080 with a 750w recommendation LUL.
     
    now it runs but it still makes me a bit nervous since the gpu hits 380w and theres a particular thing about the cx650m is that its fucking loud when near full load. at first when i heard it i was like wtf i thought the ftw3 was supposed to be quiet and then i open up the case and listen and its coming from the psu.
     
    now im upgrading to a 850w leadex III psu and Idk what im going to do with the cx650m. i should have just bought the leadex in the first place since it was only 30 dollars more expensive

    3080 can be used with a good 650 unit easy, why would you need 650 for a 3070? Also
    At least? 650w might not be horrible idea if some higher tier build are possible in the future, but getting even more is just silly.

    No? Nonsense, even if adding a gpu 650 is really not necessary.
