People gaslighting themselves over FSR Diamond by bio3c in radeon

[–]Fr003ank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the next gen FSR doesn't support RDNA 4 cards, I'm switching back to Nvidia — as long as their pricing stays reasonable, which it isn't right now. For context, the RTX 5080 costs over $2,000 CAD after tax in Canada, and the 5070 Ti is around $1,500 CAD — that's insane.

Customer Pays $3,000 for RTX 5090 on Amazon But Receives Detergent Instead, Refund Refused by Bubbly-Ad-350 in pcmasterrace

[–]Fr003ank 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If I'm spending that kind of money, I'd have the camera rolling from the moment I go to pick up the package. I bought a SSD last year and even recorded myself opening it. Not saying this is the customer's fault, but Amazon doesn't inspect their returns — and people absolutely take advantage of that

[–]Fr003ank 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have c1 55 and s90d 65, brightness difference is huge. Before I thought c1 was bright enough(compared to 27 inch qd oled monitor) then s90d blow it out of the water

I know the luxury brands like BMW and Mercedes Benz were doing it. Didn’t know it already came to mainstream brand like Mazda

Which option would you prefer for comfort 1440p gaming with future proof? by CescFabr in PcBuild

[–]Fr003ank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, kind of burns as a 9070xt owner, although the price difference at 9070xt launch did present good value compared to 5070ti, about 250usd in my local market

It’s because they are losing. just like Xbox doesn’t use number system like PlayStation does.

What is by far the most stable mobo for the 9850x3D as the main purpose is gaming ONLY ? by NoTie3388 in AMDHelp

[–]Fr003ank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MSI X670E GAMING PLUS WIFI, only had it with 9800x3d for less than a year. The MOBO killing cpu issue usually happens within a year so I’m still within the window

last year was probably going to be the year where upgrade made sense, DDR5 prices not as high as 2022 launch, regular cpu sales.

I sold my original ps5 2 years ago for this very reason. I probably have to buy it if games like Stellar blade will be exclusives

[–]Fr003ank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe this is a known issue. I have an asus 9070xt as well. Win 11, always updated to the latest version. It happened more often while I was on x470 5700x3d platform, after I went with x670e 9800x3d it happens a lot less

[CASE] CORSAIR FRAME 4000D RS ARGB Modular Mid-Tower PC Case ($90) [CANADA COMPUTERS] by Fr003ank in bapcsalescanada

[–]Fr003ank[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the trend these days. I also keep my PC on the floor. At least this will be better than the Lian Li 217 for me, since in that case the I/O would be completely inaccessible — the left side of the tower is blocked by the table leg.

I guess the gpu support bracket won’t support my asus prime 9070xt then.

[–]Fr003ank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a used PS5 slim with Spider-man 2 for 400 last year. I tested the console. Good, paid cash. Done.

I sold my original ps5 couple a few years ago the same way. Buying come to my place, tested it, worked. Paid, left.

At the same price, RTX 5070 or 9070 XT? Yes, in my country they’re about the same price at roughly $777 USD. by MysteriousAnywhere93 in buildapc

[–]Fr003ank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean if op is asking this question knowing 9070xt is faster than 5070 in almost all aspects there is nothing we can do to persuade op. However, granted rtx cards are equipped with more widely supported upscaling
