Well I am quite satisfied that my 2080 TI FE is perfect for my future needs. Not being a big gamer I did want to at least be able to verify satisfactory results with recent titles so I asked my daughter to install one benchmark game she knew of so I could test my systems performance. She...
Good grief, I guess I finally gave up on the long waited drop in GPU prices. Every time Ive done a search it appears the prices are still holding where they were last year this time. I settled on a dog gone 5 year old 2080 TI FE that was being sold locally. I got the price down from 400 to 325...
Do you think maybe they have been holding prices high to give their mining clients time to resell their inventories without major losses? Ive found a LOT of scamming going on facebook market place. People taking photos and descriptions of cards being listed on Ebay and listing them on Facebook...
There are still people with fat wallets who buy up all the good deals so they can flip them for a profit. As long as there are buyers there will be sellers
What do you think of an RTX A4000 16GB for 380.00 used. Found a seller with a few like new at that price. Looks like it might be good for video editing.
Of course. And if you didnt know it will only work with Display port 2.0 on your monitor. At least that was the way it was on my monitor which only has version 1.4. It didnt work at all on those ports with my LG so I could only use HDMI
Had it for about 12 hours, sent it back to B&H for a full refund. Not gonna spend half my life tryna get the damned thing to run even 10 minutes on Ghost Recon Gold. Hell my onboard Intel video plays it at full 1440 and max everything but the A770 would lock up in 10 minutes and my system ran...
Im not a big time gamer anyway. I decided on the A770 because I have a Canon 1dx Mark II that records video up to 4K and I figured the Intel card could do a good job for video editing software.
I finally gave up waiting for prices to drop and settled for an Intel Arc 770 Limited. Finally after 1 1/2 years of onboard video I will have a GPU to install in my new computer build. Now I will look for my next one in about 7 or 8 years.
When the Gubment hadouts stop, and people actually have to pay with money they earned, then prices will normalize. Right now people on EBT are eating steak and crab legs.
New heat and AC for my house coming in 2 weeks. $15,900. Now thats a class action kick in the rump for a retired old man. Some how a new video card has been put on the back burner for some time to come :(
You are probably too young to remember but back in the early 1970s US car manufacturers almost went bankrupt because people finally got sick and tired of getting poor quality automobiles for their hard earned money and the consumers started buying all Japanese imports and dumping their gas...
Maybe some people are more inclined to push less expensive boards to the max possible overclocks smoking them because they think they have less to lose or they expect $1500 performance from a $150 board.
I know this much. The latest Microsoft Flight Simulator plays just fine in high detail on my onboard UHD750 Intel processor at 1440. I may not need a stinking video card!
I havent seen any issues like that with my laptop but I do note that it does have TPM 2.0, UEFI Bios. All the Windows updates are installed and Intel updates, and HP updates for Windows 11. However I did note that when the 22621 22H2 build came out, it did not update by Windows Update. I had to...
I got an HP Zbook 17 G4 last year for 400.00 shipped on Ebay. It was in like new condition. It has an I7 7820HQ processor which is only supported by Windows 11 if it was on a Microsoft Surface.. go figure. But I installed Win 11 on it anyway and it works like a dream. I also upgraded it to 64mb...
As the 40 series slowly come aboard they are looking like better buys than used 3080 and 3090. Maybe I will just let those greedy 30 series owners eat them after all.
Id like an Aorus just because my board is an Aorus xtreme but Gigabytes seem to run a couple hundred more than others. Ive actually been limiting my searches to founders edition models.
Its amazing how many 3090 are available for sale on Ebay, facebook, craigslist, etc. As long as they can get 800+ for them, many over 1200. Just how many buyers for used GPU at that price? Its got to crack eventually. Credit cards have got to max out eventually
I dont, I want one. I dont need a Lincoln either. If you are going to see a once in a lifetime GPU flood with cheap prices on a 3090, why settle for a 3050? But the flood never came.
That pretty much sums it up, which keeps me running my onboard UHD750 Intel processor video until further notice. It is adequate for my old games and more than adequate for daily use until the greedy get their fill. I can say this much for Intel, I get new video drivers about every month. They...
I started buying camera equipment again. Hell I can get a fantastic Canon pro camera used and a couple nice lenses for what a damned used premium video card costs right now. I guess I will just let the miners eat them this spring.
