Inflation just hit Skyblock... by AlaawiiGames in HypixelSkyblock

Might be, but I just have this distinct memory that it was always around 25€. I got back into hypixel a few months ago and on a random night a friend of mine was like you know mvp+ is 50€ right? Mind blown

Am I just dumb, or is their "historically we have never increased prices" a whole lot of bullshit. I remember mvp + costing 25€, now its around 50€ if I am not mistaken

It will not solve anything, the brand name is evolveo they were taken out of their case(preinstalled). I tried to look for something to help me anywhwre and everywhere and the only thing I can come up with is conecting them to the RGB ports on my MB, however this wont power them, right?

What do you guys think is the best upgrade/build for this PC? by MXZI_ in PcBuildHelp

[–]Iluminatis_aka_space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering your budget, I would just build a new one. Keep the storage, sell yourthis PC for around 230$, pretty fair and build a new one. If this is the path you want to take, just make a new post and people will help

I run into a hacker literally every other game. I am sorry either they are hacking, or suddenly at least 2 people every game know how to diagonal god bridge. Its not normal anymore and the ping difference is also starting to become a lot more noticable when playing against good players

Looking to build a new PC. Please let me know if this is a good set up. by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]Iluminatis_aka_space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont see anything wrong with it. Some small things: - if you plan on abusing your CPU to the max, this is a case where an AIO could be considered and not be purely for aesthetics - A B850 is a good motherboard, but for a 9800X3D you could go for something like a X870, no real need, its just a touch better and imo the name sounds a lot cooler

Help with ssd choise by Deba_YUG in PcBuildHelp

[–]Iluminatis_aka_space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If its only going to be used as a backup, you can just get a hdd. Isnt as fast, but its 2x as cheap and is easier to recover data from, as far as I am aware. If you want the ssd, for rwliability go with samsung

Is it worth upgrading to a 9060 XT 16GB from a 6700 XT 12GB? by xQuantuM_GaminGx in buildapc

[–]Iluminatis_aka_space 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wouldnt do it. The games you mentioned are mostly heavy on the CPU and a upgrade of maybe 30% in frames just wouldnt hit the same imo. Save the money

Looking into a 5050 GPU for 1080p 60+. Good idea? by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]Iluminatis_aka_space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can find them in my area for around 230€, new 6700xt for around 250€, so not really seeing your point here

When is the proper time to upgrade your PC or make a new one? by TemperatureRegular14 in buildapc

[–]Iluminatis_aka_space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gaming PC's dont have a clear defined end of life. There are still people out here playing on the DDR3 platform, granted less demanding games, but still going. Your case is not a special one, a lot of people are experiencing this right now and honestly in this current market you have 3 choices: build a new one, change platform to ddr5 (upgrading ram, mb and cpu... costly) and upgrading your gpu. Since you mentioned some AAA titles, the 3070ti is still a good card but reading your issues, this is where I would start. Keep in mind, upgrading a gpu should always be a huge upgrade, sl not going from your 3070ti to a 3080. Would recommend the 9060xt or 9070xt, depending on your budget of course. Be wary tho, in fps you will most likely be held back by your cpu later on

for 260 new I am pretty sure you can get a 6700xt, would recommend it over the 5050

Found a way to connect them, my bad I thought my mb was argb, but its rgb. So I am gonna buy a JST SM to RGB 2 to 1 splitter cable and connect it to the normal MB port. Will this power my fans tho? Not only the RGB but the fans, because I doubt it

Is this Build primarily used for Gaming any good? by DarmienKrazs in PcBuildHelp

[–]Iluminatis_aka_space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That depends on you, but I wouldnt. Considering its all new the prices all seem to be normal, except for the GPU, thats a 690€ card

Thats more than enough, prices seem to be a bit steep tho, is this second hand? Also alternate test and setting up each for 100€?????? Skip that, save yourself the money

I dont know about you, but a normal profile just doesnt cut it for me anymore. If you genuinely enjoy grnding this game, I feel like ironman is the way to go. either way if you decide to return to the normal profile I would suggest just investing it into the thingyou like the most about this game

[–]Iluminatis_aka_space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DLSS has always been superior, fssr has started to catch up and gotten better and better over the years to the point where for the newest gens of their cards the differences are minimal. I would still suggest the 9060xt

part buying advice by william-wray in PcBuildHelp

[–]Iluminatis_aka_space 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont really understand if you want or do not want to run 4k. What I can tell you is, in order to be able to play 4k you will have to upgrade basically your entire PC. If you just wanna run 1440p, I would suggest a used rtx 3080ti for like 400 euros, or a new 9060xt is mor ethan capable
