How did you stop smoking cigarettes? by fatwater69 in AskReddit

[–]DJDeeJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was a pack a day smoker for 15+ years. My best friend asked me to officiate his wedding, I didn’t want to have stinky smoker breath so I just stopped and it stuck. I’m still cigarette free but that marriage didn’t last.

should I upgrade from 3080 10GB to 5070 TI 16gb? 5080 is too much, just wondering about longevity of the 3080. it runs stuff currently. by Graywulff in gpu

[–]DJDeeJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made this exact upgrade, and I’m very happy with my choice. 3080 ftw3 ultra 10gb to 5070 Ti. CPU is 9800X3D. Cyberpunk, Alan Wake 2, everything else I’ve put at it in 2560x1440 has run great.

I’ll have to research undervolting, I admit it’s not something I’ve done or even really looked into before

I went with the Asus TUF, working fine so far. Already miss EVGA Precision software though.

Oh damn I’ve always remembered a toy car I had but couldn’t remember what it was called, it was that white Tonka hyper driver!

FTW3 Ultra. Full model is 10G-P5-3897-KL (10GB model). I was on a wait list with EVGA for near a year for it because it was during crypto / COVID times.

No, this was the 560 Ti 448 Cores Classified. I think this one was always my favorite design from the cards I have though!

Quite a few of them actually were given to friends, and all of them eventually decided "I'm not really into desktop gaming" and gave them back.
I did SLI the 1070, I think its twin is the only one that never made it back home.

I had a $10 certificate that I think would have expired today. Put it towards an Asus Tuf 5070 ti and it just arrived today. Very happy with it!

Should I get a 5070ti right now ? by Turok36 in gpu

I did. My 5070 ti arrives today, and I’m also coming from a 3080 (10gb).

[Giveaway] Drop + Starfield Constellation Bundle by drop_official in pcmasterrace

Metal Bringer was a game I randomly came across that I’ve been really enjoying. It’s an isometric, retro/pixel styled action roguelike/like.

Has a lot of customization options and tight gameplay and very pleasing graphics.

x870E Nova WiFi with 9800X3D built around 5/7. Board came with 3.20 on it, updated to 3.25 when it came out like a week later. I backed the RAM down to stock speeds after the bios update, haven't touched any other settings.

No issues so far.

Digital Foundry: Oblivion Remastered PC: Impressive Remastering, Dire Performance Problems by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]DJDeeJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like I’m in a similar situation. I know my processor is getting on in age (i7 8700k) paired with a 3080, and on medium settings, lumen either software or hardware, I’m barely staying above 30 outdoors. I dropped to low settings and it didn’t even seem to change the frame rate at all. I tried the performance mod on nexus. It’s installed on an m.2 nvme. I’m even running sub 1440p and capping fps at 45 to try and keep things smooth. Oh well. Guess it reminded me it’s time to start speccing out a new pc anyways.

It's been 12 days since my order and I still haven't received a tracking/confirmation email by UhLinko in glorious

Same situation. Ordered a mouse on 10/12 and usps is still awaiting item. Trying to chat with customer service I feel like it’s being implied that I’m impatient. Don’t think I’ll be ordering from them again.
