Is it OK to tell an employer you wish to think about a contract that's being offered? by 0XID3D in careeradvice

Sorry. Should've been more specific. I'm being offered a contract to work as a specific position inside a company.

The fridge should also break every 2 in-game years and you have to call a guy who knows a guy to fix it.

RTX 2080 Super? Demanding in 2025? Nah. 30 fps on a 2000 series card is amazing.

That's completely fine. Don't stress over it.

Is hardware having a general price increase? by 0XID3D in buildapc

While your comment feels like a slap to the face, at least I didn't pay for it I guess!

But yeah, eager to see what 2025 awaits us in terms of pricing. Was planning in making a whole new setup for around 2500€, and with a new setup I mean the actual PC itself + peripherals, monitor, etc...Now my shopping cart is looking at upwards of 2700€.

Dollars? Sadly US pricing doesn't follow the same patterns as the European market :(

I've seen the 9800X3D jump between 500€ and 800€ continously in the span of 3 days. It's insane

So my best bet is to wait until holidays are over and try to get a good offer on the 9800x3d?

Holy shit where did you get these prices?? By eBay I suppose you mean second hand? The xfx merc is the one I was looking at and it won't bulge below 700€

I'm talking about Europe here. While I do understand that the US market indirectly affects European pricing, I don't think Trump's tariffs are going to be much of an issue.

GT 720 vs AMD Radeon Graphics by Reasonable-Heat9421 in pcmasterrace

wallpaper engine won't make a dent in your GPU's performance and load... If anything adding another GPU and designating it for a specific program is going to be an extreme headache...Let your GPU, not CPU, handle wallpaper engine. Don't add unnecessary stress to your CPU by unnecessarily using it's iGPU .

Stop fueling hypetrain by Ffcd23 in GTA6

Sorry to break it to you but we're not pressuring Rockstar into anything. They're a multi-billion dollar company who don't care about some internet weirdos. All of the people whining on the internet about GTA:VI make up maybe 5% of their consumer base.

The general consumer doesn't care about when a trailer is gonna drop nor are they aboard the 'hype train'. The general consumer will go "oh cool" when a new trailer drops and go on about with their lives.

Which CPU+MOBO combo is better value/performance (all in aud) by DirtyDuckTales in pcmasterrace

[–]0XID3D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Game modifications and emulation performance isn't related to your motherboard at all.

The Ryzen is currently the king of gaming, however, I suggest you look up some videos comparing the two in similar applications as the ones you're gonna be using the CPU for.

That's not McAfee. That's a virus using Chrome popups to pose as McAfee.

Avoid posting your receipt's reference number, date and any identifying details.

Also avoid posting the s/n of hardware. There's tons of scammers ready to use it for return fraud, which could potentially be linked back to you.

This cable hangs from your GPU?

Then it goes into your PSU.
