the last multi GPU system I did was 670 SLI. When I was Shopping the 900 series, an Anandtech article convinced me to go with the largest card first, and then if I still had a use case go SLI. I bought a 980 and it was good enough until I bought a 1080ti.
To be honest I kind of lament the...
I gave away my 1080ti to a friend 2 months ago, and it upgraded his 1660 Super. That card is probably going to live another 3 years in his machine - almost certainly the longest lived card I’ll have ever used.
What the heck is everyone using discord for that there is discussion about echo chambers? The Stellaris, BG3,D2R, etc discord channels are all about the same with guides, game discussion, debates on builds, etc
I’m not 100% sure on the 850. I had an OC’d 3080ti and a 5950 with PBO enabled randomly rebooting on a Seasonic 750w Plat. I jumped up to a 1000w PS, so I can’t directly say if 850 would have been enough, but the line was somewhere between 750 and 1000.
I can’t imagine the SKU would add that much cost given how things like the WD Raptor series compared to WD blues 15 years ago. But sure, given a 990pro 2TB is sub 200, I could justify paying 600 for a 768GB drive (3x markup)
This would also be at least moderately interesting. It wouldn’t be...
We can get a 4TB drive Samsung 990 pro TLC drive for less than 350. That should mean we should be able to get a 1.25TB SLC drive for a similar price. Even if SLC commands a 50% markup from TLC, that would put a 1.25TB SLC drive at less than $550. I’d pay that in a heartbeat, and honestly 512GB...
So you can get a mediocre power supply paired with a mediocre AIO, but at least you don’t have to assemble it?
Wake me up when it comes included with a 1000w Seasonic Titanium, a D5, and a 420mm rad. Bonus points for ZMT or primochill tube pre installed as well with QDC for processor / vid card
At that price you might as well just buy a complete system with whatever the best at the moment CPU is paired with X090 every generation. You’ll pay less
I... have never encountered that. If I didn't want to go to a specific conference I wouldn't fill out the paperwork to go. The closest I've gotten to that is having to travel cross country for an annual disaster recovery test. My bonus was dependent on success criteria of the DR test, so even...
