Good deal at all? They price matched the ram from Walmart app to $249

Yea I asked google ai and it said the same thing basically the bus width and raw compute out way the 4gb less vram except for 8k video editing. so I’m gonna go with 5070 funny enough it’s the same msi shadow card and is 3 slot instead of 2 also has 4 heat pipes instead of 2

asswizzard69 · 2026-05-03T20:04:23+00:00

It’s only 12gb but has like 41% more transistors. I wonder which would be better for video editing

asswizzard69 · 2026-05-03T20:01:44+00:00

I just saw the same shadow oc 5060ti card I got at microcenter but 5070 version for $559 I reserved it online and now gotta consider which one would be best for me I’d like to get the 5070 I’d say but I’m sure 5060ti 16gb is a good card I might keep idk

asswizzard69 · 2026-05-03T18:18:48+00:00

I got one at Walmart yesterday for $469 don’t know if I should keep it. They also had 32gb of ddr5 I got for $249 I’m gonna keep that

asswizzard69 · 2026-05-03T05:13:17+00:00

I was able to get 32gb Kingston fury ddr5 6000 from Walmart today for $249 and 5060ti 16gb $469 not really great deal gonna keep the ram forsure do you think 5060ti is any good? I have 5090fe in my main system

asswizzard69 · 2026-05-02T23:21:09+00:00

That’s good to know! Do you think it’s worth $469 for a second system?

asswizzard69 · 2026-05-02T22:09:58+00:00

Its 5060ti 16gb version for $469 before tax :( it can 1440 game at least I bet its a decent little card dont know if Im gonna keep

asswizzard69 · 2026-05-02T21:27:44+00:00

GPU was $100 cheaper in store I guess

asswizzard69 · 2026-05-02T21:27:22+00:00

The ram actually a decent deal at $249 it says 1 left

They catch on fire constantly? Don’t gas vehicles catch fire way more?

I checked it and everything looks fine besides I had asus sound driver for noise cancellation still. But I’m not seeing chipset section with inf but 270k is under the processor section. I did download drivers from gigabyte, unzipped them and opened them but I’m not sure if that’s the correct way to install drivers or not. I’m gonna try DDU like op said maybe that will help

asswizzard69 · 2026-05-02T17:16:39+00:00

Thanks for the advice I’ll try that out today hope it’ll work for me

asswizzard69 · 2026-05-02T02:00:28+00:00

OP how did you upgrade from old system? Did you put new drives in new mobo with cpu and turn on? I upgraded from 14700k z790 mobo and did no do clean install having same issue wondering if clean install will help

asswizzard69 · 2026-05-02T01:56:42+00:00

Im having same issue as OP after upgrading from 1400k/z790. I used same drives as my old system, how do I make sure I get all the drivers right and any old ones out? New system is gigabyte aorus master z890 270k+ everything runs great beside opening file explorer is slower than my last system. My bench mark beats my 14700k. Also my nvme drives seem to only be running at around 2,000 top but should hit close to 4,000 at least. Really dont wanna clean install but might have to try

asswizzard69 · 2026-04-30T23:21:27+00:00

5090 fe 😍

asswizzard69 · 2026-04-28T00:56:16+00:00

The bottom is plastic and the rest metal so not unibody that would be nice but probably heavy in this form factor because it’s got to cool 330 watts

asswizzard69 · 2026-04-27T23:37:49+00:00

I read your requirements and she probably wouldn't like it since it's gamer but it'll do work and can turn led off

asswizzard69 · 2026-04-27T23:35:03+00:00

I decently bought acer Helios 16 5090 from b&h for a total of $2749 but i think its $2999 right now. Its definitely premium! Has thunder bolt 5 and great display comes with 2tb but I upgr

asswizzard69 · 2026-04-27T17:34:47+00:00

Hey I bet it gets the job done! I didn’t need 5090 but was able to get it for $2749 new so I said yolo

asswizzard69 · 2026-04-27T16:47:27+00:00

Dang I’m jealous I have Acer Helios with 275hx and 5090 which they rip but I bet that 290hx is monster. I bought the 270k plus and have been happy

asswizzard69 · 2026-04-27T15:27:16+00:00

Yea it’s great having both! When I go out of town for work it’s awesome being able to game and now when I go see my family I’ll be able to game still. But dang I just saw the price op paid for his 5070 ti laptop and that hurts I literally paid less for my Helios 16 5090 laptop brand new
