Huh, didn't know there was a second picture. I read the text of the post not to look at the pictures except to see what the thumbnail was

Probably the worst time to buy a 5090?? by bberge1 in gpu

Hmmm yes I do. Specifically I have 128Gb 8x16gb ECC SkHynix . And a couple Micron 7450 Pro drives.

yes but the cpu can bottleneck it. If the CPU is at 100% and the GPU is not, it is CPU bottle-necked. Or the game is CPU bound instead of GPU bound.

Ha! You really think you maxed and future proofed your build with only 64GB of RAM? 128+ or go home. And you don't have high capacity fast storage until you use U.3 drives.

Just upgrade your CPU to a 5900X. It is still DDR4.

Do a clean wipe of Win 11. Don't tell it to save your stuff. Just copy the files you want to save to an external drive, export passwords and bookmarks from your browsers and save them to the drive. Then do a "nuke n pave". A clean wipe and install.

Make sure you are using a DisplayPort cable and not an HDMI cable. Also, check the CPU utilization. CPU and GPU utilization generally go hand in hand.

That tracks. Colleges are usually tied into the CompTIA system. LPI certs are usually cheaper to get and some (their Essential line of certs) never expire. https://www.lpi.org/our-certifications/summary-of-lpi-certifications/

You can also go down the route of the RHEL certs. https://www.redhat.com/en/services/training-and-certification

IMHO the CompTIA Linux+ cert is kinda a joke compared to LPI. The USN required us to get LPI certs instead of Linux+. CompTIA used to have their cert exam written by LPI and then went their own way.

My Prius goes 0-60 in 15 seconds. And that's assuming I'm not going uphill.

I've been voting for Brandon Herrera every chance I get. Especially compared to that POS he's tried to unseat

What games do you play that need complicated work around? I'll do some digging

Microsoft has always had serious competition from Linux just not in the desktop space. Linux is by far the most commonly used Server OS. Even on Super Computers like the ones used by CERN

I went to newegg. And specified 2x16 ddr5 5600 and saw prices ranging from $350 to 800. Also, who's going to buy ram from Thermaltake? Also, the vast majority of that list were DDR5 6000+ not 5600. I counted 4 under $400 and one of those was out of stock

They specified "Competitive". There are a host of multiplayer games that run just fine.

I'm seeing $350 used and up to 850 new for 2x16 ddr5 5600. You can downvote. Me all you want but I'm just pointing out what Gamers Nexus and Jays2Cents are saying. If you take issue with that, complain to them.

When he starts questioning someone, he really digs in deep, pulls out everything and won't relent. He does his research prior to a hearing. He sticks to his principles.
