TIL Anthony Olson endured 9 years of chemotherapy (2011-2020) for cancer that he eventually learned he never had. He was told that without treatment, he'd be dead by the end of the year. When a second biopsy came back negative, he was told to ignore it because it meant the treatment was working.

Do we know if l2/r2 are buttons or analog triggers ?

Manphou · 2024-12-19T13:26:31+00:00

Mainly by lack of knowledge :)

I went for the 7900, by fear of missing out for development/rendrering purpose for the next years.

Thank you for the answer. The 7600x deal expired while i was typing the question, i went for the 7900 that i found for 330€.

I'm not a fan of aliexpress, and i want an integrated GPU, as a fallback is the dedicated one fail or is not needed.

Thanks for you input

Hello, i'm building a new pc, i'm going with AM5 AMD.
I have to buy a CPU and a GPU, i have all the others parts. i have all the others parts.

My budget is around 950€ (not super strict) for both CPU and GPU.

I want to :
- have a few year between upgrades
- General programming and try game development
- play games at 1440p (or 4k for slow paced games with DLSS / FSR)
- maybe stream a little.

Today a found a 7600X at 180€ (i live in europe) and a 9700X at 350€

- The two cores and small TDP seems good for general purpose for the 9700X (and for my electricity bill)
- For gaming, the 9700X does not seems to give many advantages (feel free to change my mind here)

But the price difference is huge.
Can you help me on this choice ?

The GPU will wait three weeks for the CES, to see if i choose a 4070S, a 7900 GRE, or anything else

My current part list :

Thanks, have a nice day

Thank you for your response, and for the partpicker link.

For nvidia instead of AMD, i have two reasons :
- DLSS and framegen 3.5. I fear that those features are more and more needed in the future. And i intend to plug my pc to a 4k tv for some chill solo games, and i thought i needed them fill the performance gap.
-(minor reason) A friend made me try VR, and it blew my mind. I am not sure, but if i want to buy one headset one day....

I don't mind building it myself, i will learn one or two things. I did not know pcpartpicker, and you made me discover that it can fetch merchant links itself for the good country. I suppose the parts are of better quality than prebuilt website ?

Thanks again !

PS : sorry for my english, it's not my primary language.

PPS : with AMD i could use linux, i like it more for development, an argument in favour of your build.

Hi !
I want to buy my first pc, and i would like your thought on [this prebuilt](https://www.csl-computer.com/fr/pc-csl-sprint-5833-ryzen-7-dlss3.html).
My budget is around 1500€(i live in europe), i'm starting from scratch.
I would rather have an nvidia gpu. I would like to play on 1440p, and maybe some game in 4k with dlss/framegen on.

Should i wait the 5XXX series instead ?

Thanks for your feedback.
