    When life gives you a frayed cable on your head…

    I know what you did to that poor dt990... (But in all seriousness, Nice job! it looks fantastic.) LeakedMiniboisfootage.mp4

    Linus, all I want is an internship, bro, check…

    Hey, can't blame the man for at least trying
  3. Love the atmosphere, looks pretty good given the circumstance, but yeah, of course when you're shooting 1/60 for a moving object it's not going to look super sharp. Here's mine- I like to call it the Cosmic Koi, I took it in a Chinese garden. Fuji xt30 with a xf56 1.2, iso 640, 1/1000. Going to post the photo as taken, and the edited photo just for kicks.
  4. I dont see why this matters. Ebay has fine buyer protection, and the card has already been shipped. There's nothing you can do anymore besides wait for it to arrive and to check and benchmark it when it does.
  5. I'm looking for some great 15-17" laptops specifically for use for multimedia use. Ie, I'm looking for laptops that have a focus on Display, battery life, and build quality. Storage and GPU are not of any concern. Budget is soft at $2000 USD. Any suggestions?
  6. Can you provide examples? Unless you're talking about sound quality in comparison to wired iems or something, there's nothing out there that I'd consider a competitor under the price of the.. Buds 2 pro.
  7. Used like new! Brand new in box! Interesting. S/N is legit, the rest of the box looks the same, although it's slightly distressed. Very interesting. Honestly, I wouldn't, but that's just my perspective. Are you confused between airpods variants?
  8. I'm just trying to meet OP's demands criteria and constraints as closesly as possible. Feel free to take a different direction. Oh, right. And I put a laughing reaction to your post recommending the 750w because of the hyperbole you used in it. uh... no? That's wasting money on the PSU and on the power bill due to the effeciency curve of the PSU. Definitely not preferable to have too much headroom
  9. 450w transient on a 6700xt at 70w above reference tdp, 150w pull from a 9700k at 25w above peak power draw, 50w for the rest of the system=650w... in the absolute worst case during a transient. The PSU can handle higher then that for transients... Realistically? More like ~500w for transients under full load, with gaming load being quite a bit lower.
  10. Your current one will work (probably just fine), but it's preferable that you ditch it. It's a dated, lowend unit with questionable reliability and protections.
  11. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/4xGnTW/phanteks-amp-650-w-80-gold-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-ph-p650g_us01 something like this would work well.
  12. Nice, That's definitely a good price. You probably dont need to sweat the power.
  13. Depends on the CPU and what PSU unit exactly you're working with. 600w will be perfectly fine 99% of the time. Also, what's the 'amazing deal' that you found?
  14. Please dont create multiple accounts to ask similar if not the same questions, that'd probably be considered spam and it's rather annoying.
  15. By the way, what's the budget for your pc?
  16. No, what I said applies for every CPU. You'd be throwing your money away if you purchase a 13600k over something like a 5600 for 4k gaming.
  17. Dont, the performance will be hardly better (if better at all). Save on the CPU, spend on the GPU. A 5600 would be fantastic for 4k.
  18. You'd be wasting money with either if gaming is your most intensive workload. Save as much money as possible on the CPU and buy the highest performing GPU that you can. I can guarentee that there will be <5% performance difference between a 5600 and 13900k/7950x in most games at 4k with high settings.
  19. It will not. I would suggest a cheaper cpu regardless (like 7600x, 13600k), and if you're going for 1440p+, just buy a 5600, your frames will hardly be impacted by a better cpu, but significantly impacted by a better gpu.
  20. In gaming workloads compared an equal sku from intel, no. E.G 5600 vs 12400f, 5800x vs 12700f, etc. Although, the 5600 (non-x) is quite a good deal right now at $140. 6900xt+5600 is a good combo for most games, espeically at 1440p/4k.
  21. The cooler is quite weak, and the rest of the components probably won't take you very far... Not to mention that you probably won't see noticable uplifts in performance. I would encourage leaving it pretty much as-is, or going for an undervolt. Sorry that I can't help you directly with your issue, but I wanted to mention this in case you aren't looking to oc for fun or do this for a synethetic benchmark.
  22. It is not hot-swapable. I'd return it, I might advise looking at this: https://www.keychron.com/products/keychron-k10-wireless-mechanical-keyboard?variant=39426674786393 (k10 in the hotswap variety with red switches). It'll be $104 shipped, and you can swap out the switches if that turns out to be too loud for you as well.
  23. 1. When do you intend to purchase? 2. As an fyi, At $2800 USD we're getting well into solidly overkill territory. Unless you want to exceed 120-170fps at 1440p, or you want to crank your settings at 4k 144 or so, you can get away with spending a lot less (Sub- $1500).
