  1. Measure it. I don't know what case that is, but cases usually also give a number for the max gpu length.
  2. Budget (including currency): 1500 Country: Germany Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Gaming including streaming and recording. Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 1440P 144Hz GPU: 2080 Super Ventus OC CPU: Ryzen 7 3700X Memory: Corsair Vengeance 3200 Mhz CL16 16 Gb Motherboard: B450 Tomahawk Max (Aware that it won't support gen 4) SSD: P1 Crucial NVME 1Tb SSD HDD: 2TB Seagate 7200 RPM Case: Corsair 275R PSU: TX750M 750 Watt
  3. Yeah. There's a lot of video's as to why the 1080 Ti was a card ahead of its time in terms of performance. It's a great card if you can pick it up for anywhere near 400-500 Bucks, as the 5700Xt is pretty close to that in terms of processing power as well. You also get 11 Gb of VRam which is more than any other card at that price point.
  4. One thing. In case of future proofing your pc, I believe that the B450's will not be compatible with the 4th gen Ryzen cpu's. The 550's are coming out mid june, which will be compatible, or you could opt for a more expensive X570 Motherboard.
  5. You should be fine, however if this is a build you intend to continually upgrade, I would recommend at least a 550-600 Watt PSU, as it also has better power efficiency.
  6. That sounds just fine. I think that's what is recommended with the 3900X. I would consider just lessening the load on the cpu a little, and hopefully yielding lower temps. You could also look/alter your cpu fan curve because running the CPU that hot 24/7 might not be the best idea in terms of longevity
  7. I've heard good things about the Intel NUC Hades Canyon.... In terms of laptops Lenovo Legion Y545 is supposed to be pretty good I think....
  8. Budget? And what will you be gaming -> how much gpu power will you need?
  9. Refer to this thread for which models are best...
  10. Didn't NVIDIA just optimize driver's for a bunch of games that bumps the super about 5% ahead of the 5700XT on average?
  11. Only thing I can offer then is that I have the Saphire Pulse and works great for me. Packaging was extremely simplistic, cardboard box inside the outer hull. Temps are cool.
  12. I watched this video before buying my GPU. It's only 20 minutes long...
  13. Performance is basically the same. I own a 5700XT Saphire Pulse. I also have a 1080P monitor. That being said, both of these cards are really 1440p cards, so at 1080p you shouldn't have any performance issues.
  14. In terms of temperature for the CPU that's not horrible. A bit hot but I think it's pretty normal if it's running at 100% Usage for an extended period of time. On that note, I wouldn't advise running 24/7 at such high temps. What voltages are in the BIOS?
  15. Not really. I probably wouldn't buy a new power supply because I don't think you need one.. My Power supply is 8 years old or so and still going strong.
  16. What exactly are you looking at?
  17. Your cpu will probably start bottlenecking if you get a much better gpu. I'd upgrade your cpu right now and then wait another year or so before upgrading the gpu. Shouldn't be bottlenecking with your current setup.
  18. I agree. I have a 5700XT and the i5 8400, and I don't experience any bottlenecking...
  19. I have the Saphire Pulse. It's supposed to be one of the better one's in terms of cooling. Refer to this thread under the AMD RX 57XX section to see the tiers in terms of cooling and general quality.
  20. Then what else could be causing such a bottleneck because I don't think it's the cpu?
