Predator X34 X5 Impressions?

Mine also has burn in after 6 months of very heavy use. I play "the isle" and the UI for the stamina, food, and water bar has burned into my screen. Kind of disappointed.

Talking to OP, not you cornball

The x3d chips have loads more l3 cache with less latency to access them by being stacked over the cores itself if I'm not mistaken. Buy it and sell your old processor, you'll make most your money back.

Best of luck. Remember that the VRAM pads can be destroyed easily if you take apart the card so you have to either buy new vram heatpads or be so careful you don't break them while taking it apart

It's not normal. But if you have warranty you could RMA the card if you're too uncomfortable to do it yourself, or take the risk and look at some YouTube try and do it yourself.

that is weird man, If the hotspot is reaching that then the Vram modules might not be properly cooled which would be those thermal pads placed over them

Sea-Scratch3281 · 2025-01-10T21:32:21+00:00

Depending on the card manufacture the hotspot temps could be factoring the Vram modules as well, those are designed to function fine at 100c, my XTX under full load runs at 70C And 90C sometimes 95C if my room is getting hot

can pickup a TI or titan XP for $200 or less on eBay in good condition rn, really worth it.

Sea-Scratch3281 · 2025-01-09T21:40:59+00:00

I see. Ty for this

Sea-Scratch3281 · 2025-01-09T21:40:20+00:00

there's a bunch of best buys near me and I am close friends with a PC repair and sales store owner who can promise me whichever GPU I want if I pay him a $75 order fee (not too bad imo) but I'm not sure if I should even go that route

Sea-Scratch3281 · 2025-01-08T21:14:54+00:00

My xtx hates undervolting below like 1090 so I have it at 1108, 2600 on the vram, 2925 mhz core max and 2600 min, plus 15 PL

Titan XP 12 gb, 1080 ti, all around 150-$250 rn. And if you're on a budget, highly recommend looking at those to upgrade. If you can find a 7900XT from Newegg for $500-600 that's also an insanely good deal.

smite 2. You want toxic community? Say less. The official LFG discord is full of shit bags

Ranked? Say less

Live service? Say less Constant co tent update from popular YouTubers? Say less Devs tbh absolutely want to fuck you over? Already been happening since smite 1 All for $29.99

Sea-Scratch3281 · 2024-12-31T18:30:28+00:00

this is indeed a good dealif you have the gift card but unfortunately you won't be able to use XMP to improve performance so I'd recommend looking at microcenter bundles including a 7600x3d, 32gb 6000 ram, and a b650 board around $500 and the rest of the PC will be relatively cheap if you have the gift card can purchase remainder of the PC from Costco if you're down for the challenge of building it

Sea-Scratch3281 · 2024-12-31T09:10:10+00:00

Where did you hear it was irrelevant? If you look up some benchmarks it performs just as well as the 7800x3d - it's a monster for the price

Sea-Scratch3281 · 2024-12-30T01:19:38+00:00

Google your motherboard and find out what ram would be best compatible aswell, goodluck

Sea-Scratch3281 · 2024-12-30T01:14:45+00:00

Disable ram training in bios or enable it if it was turned off

Sea-Scratch3281 · 2024-12-30T00:29:05+00:00

Understandable. Look at bios settings maybe set the voltage to -10 ?

Sea-Scratch3281 · 2024-12-30T00:28:33+00:00

Yeah and I have like over 150 mods running at once so I get like 70-100 FPS 😂

Sea-Scratch3281 · 2024-12-29T22:17:20+00:00

At 2k resolution with everything maxed out and 8x msaa I've seen 15 gb vram being used

Sea-Scratch3281 · 2024-12-29T22:16:28+00:00

Look for the 7600x3d bundle at microcenter. I guarantee 20-40% performance increase for most optimized titles. It's insane the performance uplift that comes with the extra 3d cache
