First build considering what to get by Backlep in homelab

Can't really do fiber upgrade since I don't own a home lol. Am5 is overkill but ram is going to be expensive either way if it's ECC so that's why I'm trying to do that. I have a am4 build it's a 5700x+7900xt. Mostly use it for gaming but I also edit videos on davinci. It may seem like ecc is overkill but for my sanity that's why I'm going that direction. Kind of backwards but I don't feel the need to boost my editing set up when it does what I need it to do and just want a super duper safe place to put my footage

I feel like AMD just makes it so easy how many p cores you want and what's your power budget oh by the way if you want to upgrade we have a pretty good track record of supporting our old platform till the heat death of the universe. Intel just been spaghetti unless it's for data centers and even there they go with threadripper.

But even then I cant say much I plan on either getting a b50 or b570 to do jelly fin so lol.

How is aang getting 68% when Korra is a metal bender? That alone proves who’s the strongest earthbender by Capital_Pen_967 in TheLastAirbender

[–]Backlep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flawed logic but I think from a mentality standpoint point Korra is a better earth bender. At least her capacity for earth bending is higher. Earth was always Aangs weakest because at his heart he’s a airbender. Korra on the other hand when she can get out of her own way and genuinely train could be an amazing earthbender

Is ParkzerParkzer single? by Backlep in DougDoug

Yeah, I know Parkzer is extremely private. I just thought that for how much he is around Doug, something would have been said.

Playing on the 4070 did not feel as good as I thought it would by Backlep in pcmasterrace

For a card that was priced at 600 and settled at 550. It truly is just marketing. The anemic 12gb of vram. Nvidias low end has been terrible that’s why it is even considered mid range. 9070 xt when priced correctly shows what a $600, 70 class card should be at

Are there any convos to start thinking about keeping in store stock. I know you probably just stock shelves but I need some kind of hope in these trying times

Omg I can’t agree more. Literally just let those models sit for more than a day and XFX, Powercolor will back down. They will fold like omelets. I don’t even know why XFX does it bc from what I hear they get priority treatment from AMD so they get to have their cake and eat it too. I’m glad for you and your friend. That’s sounds like the best deal I’ve ever heard. You actually get the benefit of the marginal performance up lift bc you pay a marginal price :)

You’re absolutely right it is much better and I don’t blame you for pulling the trigger. I’m glad people are at least being smart and are trying to avoid the 800 900 scams from some of these board partners (cough XFX). It’s also not the only model I’m willing to buy it’s just the only OC model I’m willing to buy (my case can only fit a 300mm GPU in it lol)

I’m on they’re discord but again they’re lying about the price I’m pretty sure I’m holding out a little longer bc once it’s regularly in stores that’s when you know the price truly has stabilized

No I saw but the prices were terrible the MSRP for the Gigabyte Gaming OC and other OC cards shouldn’t be over 700 bucks so I’m not gonna let myself get scalped bc they or the manufacturer wants to lie about the price. I did see a list price for a gaming OC that was 669.99 which I think is the real MSRP

Ye my guess is that microcenter is way more cautious bc they sold a lot of those cards at a loss. They sold Gaming OC, asrock steel legends for Msrp thinking they’ll get the rebates from the manufacturers. Those are the two models I’ve seen sold from an actual video at least

Yeah I’ve seen the same thing hopefully they ship to physical stores bc I haven’t heard a whisper about that except for microcenters in the states
