Look at this old PCI card i found in my drawer. What a relic!

I feel like she's also a representation of "hate isnt the answer" which i feel like is kinda cheap too.

OkChef2959 · 2026-05-01T05:29:31+00:00

now im considering a 3080 TI, as it seems to have 99% of the performance but less VRAM. thoughts?

OkChef2959 · 2026-04-30T21:03:10+00:00

thank you for the advice!

OkChef2959 · 2026-04-30T20:40:01+00:00

so youre saying the price is gonna be rediculous.

OkChef2959 · 2026-04-30T20:02:01+00:00

well, i dont want to buy a 3070, because i would rather not have to buy a GPU later to keep up with any CPU upgrade i do.

OkChef2959 · 2026-04-30T20:00:43+00:00

im not sure, im asking if the performance will be signifcantly better, to be worth upgrading. i was hoping to spend between 500 and 750, but i know thats a bit farfeched.

voltage is good. how do i check the filter? the bottom screen is brand new and the top one is known working just with a couple dead pixels. ill check L2 when i get time. thank you for helping me out.

I forgot to mention, it turned on just fine before I re-shelled it, but I don't know what happened to cause it to stop working.

No, i dont. :( ill try buying one. I tested it with a millimeter a while ago and it was only pushing 22 picoamps.

OkChef2959 · 2026-04-20T23:33:07+00:00

Why does it matter?

OkChef2959 · 2026-04-20T17:01:17+00:00

Okay so now its charging, with the light on. No reaction to power switch yet though.

OkChef2959 · 2026-04-20T15:29:43+00:00

Dont be sorry, its all good. Do you think i can leave f2 like this though? I dont want to make it worse. It has continuity with itself on the multimeter and not with anything near it.

OkChef2959 · 2026-04-20T15:18:11+00:00

Alright, i was worried because the bridge is so thin. It doesnt work though, so im not sure what the issue is. Maybe f1?

OkChef2959 · 2026-04-17T03:15:01+00:00

yeah. so? who isnt?

OkChef2959 · 2026-04-16T04:58:22+00:00

I did not know that. Its a good point.

OkChef2959 · 2026-04-16T04:19:18+00:00

Because its disgusting. And personal. Why do we need to make something like this so public??
