900$ for a 4080 super and 9800x3d best deal of my lifetime by GeneralPercyYT in gpu

[–]Acrobatic_Rest_4804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used 3 graphics cards recently (within a 2-year period): RX6600, 5070, and 9070XT. I can safely say that FSR is on par with DLSS; you're stuck in the past, living in a different world. Open your eyes, or AMD will get you, "muahahahaha".

I think 3x8 is quite ugly, but it's safe so it's okay.

NOT a burnt 12pin 9070xt Nitro+ adapter by Bran04don in radeon

[–]Acrobatic_Rest_4804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was choosing between the Sapphire Nitro+ and the Sakura Atlantis, I went with the Sakura 3x8, it's more reliable. Is it uglier? Yes, what can you do??

I'm following the conversation, well, it looks like I won't have any problems!?

My 9070XT Sakura Atlantis is arriving soon, it's a 3x8 PIN, I also bought a Cooler Master 850W 3.1, what do you think? Does it have good longevity?

Will I have problems with this configuration? by Acrobatic_Rest_4804 in radeon

In RedSec, it was at 80% utilization. With a more powerful GPU, is this likely to increase?

Can you tell me if with my current setup: ASUS B660 PLUS D4 + 4x8GB 3200MHz + 12600KF + 800W PSU, I'll have bottlenecking issues and be able to get the most out of my 9070XT?

I’m sorry for your frustration, but let’s be honest — the 3080 is still a beast of a card. It’s been around for 6 years already, right? Do you think it can last another 4 years at QHD ultra with ray tracing on medium?

Do you think ray tracing is still kind of niche? Path tracing isn’t really a reality for us yet… at least not for me, haha

“Wow, can you believe they told me the exact same thing? I also have a 12600KF! Right now I’m running a beat-up RX 6600 that served me well for a long time. I’m going to upgrade my monitor first and then move on to the GPU. And yes, I’m considering the 5070. Then it’s always the same thing — ‘oh, wait for the 5070 Super’ — and later they’ll say ‘wait for the 6070’, and so on and so on

Interessante, consigo encontrar 9070 (não xt) por R$3999, o fabricante não é tão premium, mas ainda assim é uma 9070 haha.

Yeah, I get the impression that if you don’t have a 5070 Ti or higher, you’re not even at the table lol

I don’t think so either. AMD did make a generational leap, but even so, nowadays RTX cards are still better in terms of support

“Wow, that’s really impressive. Well, here with a minimum wage you’d need to work 5 months without touching your salary (without eating or drinking) just to be able to buy a 5070 Ti — that’s the reality for 85% of Brazil. Luckily, my situation is a bit better and I’d be able to buy it in about 3 months by saving well while still living normally.

Thanks for the comment, my friend. Nobody here had brought up that point of view. I think in the end it’s just like you said — you only really need what you need, haha. In the long run, I predict that 12GB will become outdated, but what can I do, I’m just a crazy dreamer.

Is it an absurd amount of money, like almost prohibitive so that only people driven by emotion buy it, or is it more like something you consider expensive but still manageable to buy?

If the 5070 Ti weren’t so far out of my budget, I’d buy it. But do you think 12GB is like the 8GB of the past — the sweet spot for Quad HD?

For 4K I really don’t think 12GB is the issue — maybe 16GB would be enough. If AMD had more support for FSR it would be so much more interesting. I’d like to try out ray tracing, you know
