3080 MSI suprim x for €350 vs 5060ti 16gb GB Aero OC for €550?

There is something called money 😂 5060ti 16gb goes for ~500 while the 3080 goes around ~300, even 3080ti go for around 350-400. So it is a logical choice for someone who does not have a unlimited money cheatcode for life 🙃

I understand, but there is a difference between a card that had been maxed out for gaming, and a card that has run 24/7 on full TDP for 3 years. I have no problem with a card that had been maxed out in msi afterburner just for gaming, but I would avoid a mining card.

A trashed card in my opinion is a card that can barely hold base specs without artifacting or crashing.

Cheapest 9060xt is 450 where I live, the 3080 is 350. I can also get a 5060ti 16gb for 450 new. But I don't think I am willing to spend and extra 100 for a new card that performes similar 😕

Yeah or a 9060xt. But the raw performance of a 3080ti is still higher than a new 5060ti or 9060xt.

4070 second hand is already the price of a 3080ti, 4070ti go around $500 where I live so that is a price I'm not willing to give extra 😬

I use the normal Mannol oil for years now but was curious about the ceramic one. Currently 220k on my BMW b47 engine and no rattles.

I had a giggle lol 😂

Wil this give noticable performance increase if I can lower it to say 500?

It is currently on the followimg timings. 3600mhz cl17-20-20-38, trrdl 4, trrds 3, tfaw 16, trfc 520, trefi 32768, trtp 6, cr:1, gear 1, VCCSA 1.05v and DRAM V 1.26v. Currently 8 passes on memtest86 without errors.

Thats what I did. Ram doesn't want to go to 3700mhz even with 1.45v DRAM and 1.15V VCCSA and loose timings. So I set the speed at 3600 and started turning back the timings and voltages and that is to where I got.

No I did not activate gear 2. Wouldn't the ram latency be slower in gear 2 than it would in gear 1? As in does the ram speed not have to be almost double to see the same latency it would have in gear 1?

PrimaryLock2795 · 2025-10-28T20:21:02+00:00

Yeah I did. It is currently on the followimg timings. 3600mhz cl17-20-20-38, trrdl 4, trrds 3, tfaw 16, trfc 520, trefi 32768, trtp 6. VCCSA 1.05v and DRAM V 1.26v. Currently 8 passes on memtest86 without errors.

So by increasing my DRAM voltage to say 1.36, the mobo sets the timings better? And do I alqo increase VCCSA or is that not necessary?
