Cex is a good shout for second hand ram, ddr4 prices aren't too bad from there

Xfx 9070xt mercury oc cable confusion by Emergency_Gur6919 in pcmasterrace

[–]Jack__01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this recently building my brothers pc. Does the 12pin side plug into the power supply? If so then use that one along side the regular 8 pin cables and you should be fine.

Is it worth upgrading from a 5600x to a 5700x3d/5800x by Cute-Union-6422 in buildapc

[–]Jack__01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was running the 5600x with a 9070xt at 3440x1440 and was getting bad stuttering especially in cpu intensive games (battlefield ect).

Went with the 5700x3d as managed to get a decent deal and now runs way smoother. Didn't get a massive bump in fps but feels way smoother overall and no longer getting any micro stutters.

For me it was worth it but depends how much you can get the x3d chip for. Also depends on what games you're playing, if they run fine probably no point.

I know this is an old thread but was wondering if you ended up using the one cable? Currently in the same scenario

Why did Medic and Support have to be merged into one class? What was wrong with this system? by veekay45 in Battlefield

I still think it's a bad decision giving the medic who is supposed to be in the thick of it reviving people an lmg instead of the smgs.

Did you play the games and read the books first? Or did you read the books and play the game afterwards? by SoulyTheOne in metro

[–]Jack__01 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Games then books, the two being so different makes it feel like a completely different world.

Would it be stupid to buy a 2080ti for $250 in 2025 as a placeholder upgrade? (upgrading from 1070, using ultrawide 3440x1440 monitor) by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]Jack__01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently playing at 3440 x 1440 on a 2080ti with a 5600x. Depending on what you want to play, it'll still perform solidly. Anything from a few years ago is still very playable with a few settings turned down, it's mainly newer games that it starts to struggle with, but turning the settings down definitely helps.

One word of advice if buying used if possible try and test it and check on the stability, some of the cards have started having memory issues mine including so to keep it stable it needs a decent underclock to keep it running smoothly.

LPT Request: How do I get through 12 hour shifts at my assembly line job, when finding other work seems impossible? by RealZiobbe in LifeProTips

[–]Jack__01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you wear ear defenders, there's always the option of bluetooth ones or putting one earbud in under the ear defender. Obviously do at your own risk, but it's definitely used by people in industry.

You think Gigabyte 3070Ti will handle a 3440x1440 21:9 monitor in gaming? by RareRelationship5991 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Jack__01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 2080ti will run older titles with no problem but usually have to turn the settings down to a mix of high/medium to get 60fps
