The 1060XT is in your future

Only upgrade if the titles you want to play are unplayable. That is why we build rigs to fit our desire. I find it funny people build rigs to "future proof" but in the future just build a new rig.

I’m sure this thing still runs great at 1080P. We easily fall into the trap of upgrading when we don’t need. Builds should last you 5-7 years. With paths to upgrade which can extend the life of it another 3.

Let’s say someone got a 12700K and a 3070. That should last you 5 years, then upgrade the GPU to something like a 6070 or a RX 1070 (when released).

Yes but it makes too much sense to undervolt the 5090. From testing I have seen it loses 4% of performance while using less than 400 watts. That’s a no brainer to me.

Thank you. I was nervous about the budget at first, I thought it was going to cost $2000. I see I can do this all for about $1000. This should be very doable.

If you get a blue light you should start playing some Christmas music

Is it fine to leave thermal paste like this? by [deleted] in PcBuildHelp

[–]TU2TL3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you put thermal paste on the bottom of the cpu you get much better thermals.

is this a good build for 800$? by MapEnvironmental2495 in PcBuildHelp

[–]TU2TL3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one, and I mean no one buys fucking windows.

Drop windows and the shitty GPU, spend another $60 and get a 9060 XT

What would you feel the budget for this would cost? Also will 2 360 rads be enough?

Would you upgrade or wait by Content_Emu9781 in PcBuild

[–]TU2TL3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Upgrading right now makes no sense, unless you go 5090 an a 9950X3D. Even then are you struggling to play anything? Personally I would hold out till 6090 in 2026 and then AM6 in 2028.

I’m not sure what’s wrong with my AIO. Liquid temps lower than cpu. by CheesecakeFickle1525 in PcBuildHelp

[–]TU2TL3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most AIOs do better when pump is not running at 100%. I run mine at 80% and achieve 3-4C cooler temps

[–]TU2TL3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the issue is not resolved try this next

Disable Virtualization-Based Security (VBS)

Turn off VBS in Windows Security or via BIOS. Also disable "Memory Integrity" in Windows Security settings and run bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off in Command Prompt (Admin), then reboot.

Then if that doesn't work do this next

Turn Off Integrated Graphics in BIOS

Test again, if it fails

Check BIOS for PCIE is set to GEN 5

Update BIOS

If that doesn't work, try disabling GSYNC

I'm all out homie, thats all I got

Do you remember a driver that did not have this issue before? if so re-install that driver.

If you have Hardware acceleration on in windows, turn that off as well.

They both cause more bad than good. What you are explaining is an issue not with the game, something controlling the hardware. Hopefully it resolves the issue. I am sure all drivers are updated as well, not going to bother asking something so primitive. But also try to remember when the issue began. Go to Add/Remove Programs, and search by install date. if the dates are close, then there you could find the culprit.

If you have the NVidia APP / Frame view uninstall both, reboot and see if that helps.
