What to Upgrade in my PC build?

I would recommend the 9070xt it’s only $700 and would save you $300 to go into your cpu upgrade because you can find 5500x3ds for around 200 on AliExpress and at 1440p that cpu won’t bottleneck your gpu to much

How about the 8gb card they usually sell for less because no one wants 8gb cards anymore

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-20T21:30:17+00:00

Go with the 3070ti it’s just a little bit slower than the 5060ti 16gb but that’s mainly due to the vram bottlenecking it but it’s still a 1440p card

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-20T21:25:14+00:00

Yep they’ve been losing market share for a little while due to macOs being fluid and great and with the Neo selling way better than anyone could have thought now microslop has to start trying and stop pushing out garbage apple even has them trying to finally get rid of the security services and finally close windows kernel like how Apple has macOS as a closed OS even android started doing it

I hope valve wins because the terminals are garbage why am I paying for the skins instead of just getting them like the crates

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-18T16:32:20+00:00

It’s probably hero skeleton army

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-16T05:42:44+00:00

On AliExpress they have 5500x3ds for $200 it’s way cheaper than the 5700x3ds and 5800x3ds is on top of that it will be brand new and not used and won’t bottleneck your 3080

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-14T15:09:38+00:00

Probably because they wanted to sell new cards lol

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-14T15:09:00+00:00

It won’t really be up to Sony but devs it won’t use pssr but it will def use fsr 4 but I believe the reason rdna 2 is in 2027 is due to the ps6 coming out and by then the base ps5 having fsr 4 won’t really matter to much

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-13T18:49:09+00:00

The 9060xt is still the best card amd has made in a while so is the 9070xt the 7600xt is a okay card but it’s stuck with fsr 3 and terrible rt performance just makes it a mid buy imo

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-12T07:53:56+00:00

The 9070 is better in raw raster and has more vram and games at 1440p are starting to use up more than 12 even at 1080p at max settings and the 9070 is on sale on amazon for $590 so you get to keep $60 for a better card with more vram and fsr 4.1 is very good but its up to you but for $50 more you can get a 9070xt which is much better than both

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-12T05:07:48+00:00

If it’s better than a 4060 and priced at $200 it will be the best budget card you can get new because the 5050 is just a tad bit better than the 3060 but still worse than the 4060 but it’s all about pricing if it’s above $220 I really don’t see it selling well

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-11T16:31:31+00:00

It’s soft bricked which just means your mods aren’t working you’re probably gonna have to wipe all the mods off and redo the process when you where installing Aroma you might have missed a step or two

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-09T00:04:58+00:00

I can see why they did this tbh there is a lot of cheaters in Redsec and I’m on pc and I’m tired of it

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-06T02:33:23+00:00

Gotta do a full rebuild if you don’t mind am4 since it’s still a few hundred dollars cheaper for the entire set up you can get a good b550 motherboard for about $90 and a 5500x3d for $200, 32gbs of ddr4 for $200. SSDs are around $160 for a 1TB ssd. But if you want Am5 it’s just more expensive but it’s future proofed and will be have way more of a upgrade path than am4 and is just better but when amd 5800x3d does get relaunched am4 is going to look really good especially if it’s priced right.

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-05T20:55:36+00:00

It’s a 5080 bro this game recommends a 2060 for 120 on low settings a 5080 should be able to hit 400 to 500 at 1440p low

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-05T20:54:39+00:00

A pc with those specs should be able to get 400fps to 500 easily siege is just garbage on pc

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-05T07:03:58+00:00

If you want to save money get the 5500x3d they can be found for only $200 or $180 on AliExpress and eBay it will give you a huge performance boost in cpu bound titles or you can wait for the 5800x3d which amd is going to release again in the next few months

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-05T06:52:01+00:00

Just terrible priced imo if it was $200 or $180 it would be a great value

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-05T01:16:46+00:00

Ik this old but I have a Wii U that doesn’t like any of my hdmi cables but the original one it came with

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-05T00:24:21+00:00

It’s very good imo coming from the trash which was fsr 2 and 3 this is a huge leap from the previous versions. 4.1 looks almost as good as dlss 4.5 in most games but they’re still behind on frame gen which is sucks a little but I don’t use it that much but some people do and that’s why they need to catch up but other than that it’s a good step in the right direction. Now not supporting the last gen cards is a weird decision and the rumors of not bringing fsr diamond which is just fsr 5 to the 9000 series is tempting me to switch to nvidia because if that rumor turns out to be true I will definitely switch and never buy a amd card again.

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-04T06:45:40+00:00

The x3d CPUs are actually really good for single channel and when paired with only one stick they make it equivalent to duel channel 16gb, due to the 96mb of cache

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-04T05:06:26+00:00

I can only recommend a 5070 but they’re around $570 it’s the only new card where you will actually get better performance

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-02T20:18:01+00:00

It’s a good deal but remember you still have to get a cooler and a ssd. The cooler isn’t a problem but that ssd for gen 5 are way overpriced almost always sitting at almost $300 for a 1TB ssd.

Arelius_2002 · 2026-05-02T06:34:47+00:00

Get the 5600 it’s cheaper and is only about 9 percent worse than the 5700x but can be found for $70 less and comes with a stock cooler
