I’m still runnign a 5820k although overclocked. I had thought about upgrading to a i7-6950X just for fun, they are cheap now but I woudl think almost any modern CPU is going to be better. A 7800X3D isn’t much more expensive then a second hand one anyway.

I’m also looking for 2x the performance of what I have now if not a little more.

I just hope they drope prices on the none super cards? Chances are though they will jsut increaseprices of the super cards and keep the existing cards the same price.

Would be nice if they where priced a little better. I know that’s unlikely these days though.

Thanks nice to know. They willmostly be at a low volume so it’s good to know they sound good at lower volumes. I only have Diamond 220’s at the moment but I do really like them they just lacked bass so I added a subwoofer not that long ago. Still need to tinker with that subwoofer though.

I’m probably going to stick with my 1070 for at least another year or two anyway so yea it probably won’t be a 4060Ti. Mostly just playing Fallout New Vegas TTW anyway I just wanted a GPu that can handle Reloaded and my modded Skyrim install a bit better because my 1070 struggles somewhat. Whenever I can get a good deal is when I will probably upgrade and yea I know the 4060Ti isn’t the best value card but I sort of want an Nvidia card because I have a G-Sync display taht cost me a shit load because it was one of the release models. I wanna get the most value out of it as I can before replacing it which I hope I don’t have to anytime soon.

Rover didn’t get enough credit back in the day. They made some really good cars but people went to the Germans instead. I also think a lot of the older Jaguars are under appreciated. Like usual people just buy German cars instead.

It’s better then a 1070. It’s at a price that is better then what a friend paid for his 3060Ti, I think he paid over £600 for it at thee time during covid. Those where dark times.

There where a few 4060Ti’s this black friday in the UK with nearly good prices around £360 or so which isn’t far off what I would like to pay for a 70 series card. I remember picking up a 560Ti for £150 back when that released still though a 4060Ti for £360 isn’t that bad.

Probably next year maybe, I have a lot of other projects that take priority over my PC.

I a 1070 to replace my 680 Classified when the VRAM on it started to fail. But the rest of my rig which I still run is my 5820k which I think was about £300 or so new, the motherbaord was £140 which is an MSI SLI X99 Plus and my memory is some cheap Crucial 16GB DDR4 kit which was £170. A 850W EVGA powersupply and a Corsair Air 540. I think the power supply was £100 or so? and the case was about £150 I think. If you added it all up it should be around £1200 with the 1070. With the 680 whcih I got for a previous system that was £550 which was a lot of money back then.

I just figure the longer I can hold out the better card I can get. I can afford any GPU on the market even a silly 4090 but I’m not spending £2k on a GPU that’s just stupid. Really I just want to spend £350 or so on a really good card like the 1070 was back then.

I’m going to hold out with my 1070 as long as I can because prices just aren’t where I want them.

I don’t think it ever mattered how quick or fast you’re car was around a track. If all you care abou tis to have the fastest car around a track then you will need a new car every year or so or just buy an F1 car and even then you will then go for a rocket car. Just buy the car you like th elook of and the one you like to drive. If that’s a Mk2 Fiesta then that is the car for you, if it’s a Ferrari then that’s also cool.

Best GT car out there at the moment. Nothing comes close in my books, it’s probably the only modern car I would actualy like to own.

Depends on what you are doing but I think as a general do it all the 7800X3D is pretty good, good single-core and multi-core performance. If you want to do some productivity is good at that and it’s greaet for gaming on. If you want to do productivity only the Intel i9 is pretty good but the new Threadrippers are even better but if you just want to game the 7800X3D is going to be better for that and it’s really efficient in power.

Yea I think you are right but all the standards and audio/video formats get very complicated very fast for me. With MPC-HC and MadVR I can play anything no problem though so that is OK. But if you actually want a surround receiver and for the audio to work as intended you need to use HDMI as far as I understand it.

The only time we use HDMI is when you want to connect you’re PC to a projector or a surround system because the standard there is HDMI.

Rover K series, super lightweight and can produce very large power numbers. Jaguar AJV8 engines, very reliable, super smooth and make good power. Lexus V8’s are also similar, make great power and are super reliable and super smooth.

Honestly there isn’t a single EV I would actually want to own.
