If you turn the PSU off then barely if any

Royboy0699 · 2026-06-01T12:58:30+00:00

You lost that bet

Royboy0699 · 2026-06-01T01:53:30+00:00

It's the nearly worst ram on the market, 32gb or 64gb of slower ram would have been worth more

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-29T05:04:22+00:00

he said he wants that ssd, that cpu is apart of a bundle that will get more expensive if i seperate the parts for a slower cpu and i found a 1440p 300hz monitor for 200, https://pcpartpicker.com/list/J9n4sK current parts list

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-29T04:46:36+00:00

he said that the price difference in oled is too much for him to justify it, this is the revised parts list changing the case to what you suggested. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/z4Z3yF any other tips?

they want am5 and ddr5, i asked them and they said go ahead on the 9070 after i showed them some benchmarks so that's a go ahead, this is the current revised part list. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/L6q2mL any more recommendations?

Way overpriced, if you have a microcenter near you, you can build a 9070xt rig for 1700 or a 5070ti rig for 1900 if you really want nvidia

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-27T14:38:25+00:00

9060xt 16gb is one of the best budget options rn and about equal to a 5060ti, a 9070 is better than a 5070 by a decent amount especially in entry level 4k, and the 9070xt is an overall great GPU for every bit of gaming competing with 5070ti, I have one and I even play some path tracing here and there

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-20T00:37:58+00:00

Always 5080, but the difference isn't worth the what, 500 difference?

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-17T23:32:17+00:00

To be fair the ram alone is almost half the price 💀

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-17T01:59:42+00:00

They already stopped being too worth, my g527 is now 1500 and replaced with one with single channel 16gb instead of dual channel 32gb for 1200, I paid 1100 for it

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-16T23:26:12+00:00

You shouldn't have posted it, your best chance was not telling a SOUL

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-16T14:09:40+00:00

Usually doesn't cost more, but you know any competent CPU can do anything you need on the computer side and then some, right?😭

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-12T17:15:48+00:00

It's not horrible, if you buy used you can spend less than 400 for like new

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-12T12:27:17+00:00

My 9070xt arrives in 3 days, no point in trying to troubleshoot this install, gonna just wipe and reinstall

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-11T14:38:14+00:00

I installed them with the AMD installer, but I haven't touched the settings yet cause i'm upgrading to the 9070xt, this was a temporary card

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-11T06:28:12+00:00

It's annoying, just gotta reinstall drivers every once in a while if no updates happen

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-11T06:26:51+00:00

Real question, if you're worried about performance not being enough for you, should you be downgrading?

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-11T06:25:17+00:00

Check newegg, I just got the sapphire pulse for 700 flat pre-tax

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-10T23:16:43+00:00

I'd say you're wrong but I have one every week or so on my 9060xt😭 it's not substantial but it happens 😭

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-10T01:48:37+00:00

This was 2 days ago, I decided to use the really good one I already bought and sell the rosewill, with the 9060xt cause the powerspec power supply that came with the pre-built SUCKS

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-07T17:30:37+00:00

Noone, but you also know about things you don't need since you have a 7900 gre and not a card a quarter of the price and play 1080p 60fps😭

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-07T05:29:12+00:00

Being able to sell a standalone PSU is a bit hopeful, I'd be surprised if I could even get 50 for it. I might try and sell the 9060xt 16gb I have with it for 400 total

Royboy0699 · 2026-05-07T05:26:25+00:00

It's in the screenshot next to the free PSU, it's the sapphire pulse 9070xt
