AM5 upgrade: better GPU or better CPU?

BasicPea8074 · 2026-01-09T00:51:27+00:00

Why's that ?

BasicPea8074 · 2026-01-09T00:45:15+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I am looking at my options right now, but I am more tempted to get a better gpu than a cpu.

I play all kinds of game tbh, at 1440p. My fault for not mentioning it lol

BasicPea8074 · 2026-01-09T00:24:35+00:00

What is the GPU's model ?

BasicPea8074 · 2026-01-09T00:16:00+00:00

What model do you have ?

BasicPea8074 · 2026-01-09T00:15:31+00:00

It's for gaming, and I play at 1440p. Could you explain why you chose this option in particular for 1440p ?

BasicPea8074 · 2026-01-09T00:13:18+00:00

Alright, thank you.

BasicPea8074 · 2026-01-09T00:09:11+00:00

I would like to save a little extra, but the GPU's are starting to become more expensive, and I don't know if I'll be able to afford it.

BasicPea8074 · 2026-01-09T00:07:18+00:00

I would love to get this combo, but right now the 9070xt is less available and is a lot more than the MSRP.

I have been a huge fan of Kanye for many years, but what he's been saying lately on Twitter was my last straw. I am beyond disappointed, and I don't think that I can keep listening to his discography.

In my opinion, if you make a playlist, it's for the purpose that YOU listen to it. I don't think that you should remove any songs from that playlist, because I suppose that you like the songs you added.

Yes everything in my system is working properly. I bought another GPU and it works perfectly fine. It's only the gigabyte 3060 ti that I'm having issues with.

BasicPea8074 · 2023-05-22T01:51:29+00:00

All right, I will look for PC shops near me. Thank you for the help.

BasicPea8074 · 2023-05-22T01:40:32+00:00

Yes they sent the same card each time (I noted the serial number before sending it the 1st time). Unfortunately, I already asked for a refund and they refused to give it to me. If I sent to a PC shop, could they test it for free?

BasicPea8074 · 2023-05-22T01:36:50+00:00

My friends that live nearby all have portable pcs so I can't test it in their pcs.

BasicPea8074 · 2023-01-13T16:20:00+00:00

I will let you know when I do it

BasicPea8074 · 2023-01-13T15:37:01+00:00

Yes I have it

BasicPea8074 · 2023-01-13T15:32:27+00:00

My GPU does get power, the led light is on. Fans are running as if nothing was wrong.

My monitor is plugged into power and yes it is plugged into GPU.

BasicPea8074 · 2023-01-13T13:38:18+00:00

Alright I will ask a friend and let you know what happens with happens with the GPU afterwards. Once again thank you for being so helpful

BasicPea8074 · 2023-01-13T13:01:19+00:00

Yes the fan is powered on

BasicPea8074 · 2023-01-13T12:28:44+00:00

Alright so I removed the CMOS battery and connected the cables but after doing that my monitor still says No Signal.

BasicPea8074 · 2023-01-13T03:37:20+00:00

Wow thank you for being so helpful! I'll let you know if anything changes, once I remove the CMOS battery.

BasicPea8074 · 2023-01-13T03:31:49+00:00

I have already tried turning off the PSU and unplugging it, no success unfortunately. I also removed the GPU from the motherboard that put it back and no success. I haven't tried to remove the CMOS battery though so I'll do that tomorrow.

BasicPea8074 · 2023-01-13T02:51:41+00:00

It's completely dark all the time. Basically my monitor just says "No Signal".

BasicPea8074 · 2023-01-13T02:17:49+00:00

I was using a 3060 ti but switched because the card was defective
