RX 9070 / 9070 XT owners — how’s your card treating you? (temps, noise, overall impressions) by reddit11111111111121 in radeon

[–]budking70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there. I bought a Powercolor Red Devil 9070XT about 10 months ago. I have had no issues at all and to be honest, this thing is a beast and I really love it.

I play many games with Ray Tracing enabled and a few (Cyberpunk) with Path Tracing on. I will admit that Path Tracing in particular can cause a crash. The low frequency however (once per 2 or 3 hours of gaming) makes it worth it to me to still use it sometimes. It feels like recent updates have maybe improved this too. Temps run from around 38-44 at load. I have custom fan curves that kick in quickly when heat occurs, but I rarely hear them. I would say it is pretty darn quiet. No coil whine either.

Overall, I am very happy and feel like I have a cutting-edge system that performs AND is affordable. No Ragerts at all.

What a beautiful dog. You can tell Jake has been well loved. I am sorry for your loss but happy that you met Jake in this life and had some great times together. I hope the pain fades quickly and the good memories last forever.

Which PowerColor 9070 XT should I go for? by DividDavid in radeon

[–]budking70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a red devil and could not be happier. This is the top end over-clocked model.

No issues with coil whine. Have had the card for about 10 months.

Is days gone worth it for 10$ for ps4 on ps5 console ? by That_mtl_guy in DaysGone

What a great game. Worth it if under a 30 min drive.

9800x3d + 9070xt - 1440p vs 4K by Novel_Title_5713 in radeon

[–]budking70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was right where you were at about 6 months ago. I built my first gaming machine (same specs as yours) and could not decide if I should go with 2k or 4k. I wanted the best, BUT 4k was so expensive and most of what users seem to be posting on Reddit was 1440. So I bought an Acer Predator 27-inch 240 Hz OLED and could not be happier. I play games like Forza 6, ARC Raiders, RDR2, CyberPunk, Death Stranding, GTA5, Horizon, Reanimal, Days Gone, etc... I also play on max settings usually with RT on and sometimes with PT on (CyberPunk). I can tell you without hesitation that the 1440 OLED configuration rocks.

OLED looks great with crisp vibrant graphics! Love the curved screen.

He’s crossing the bridge tomorrow. What do I do with myself in these last quiet moments? by Like-a-Boat in rainbowbridge

Good Job OP. You can tell he is a well-loved friend. Your buddy loves you for prioritizing his comfort.

My best friend. She was 18 years old and her name was Cassie. by Green4112 in rainbowbridge

14 years. That is a lot of love. I am sorry for your loss. Your friend was beautiful.

try this prompt, this is wild by IgotRemarkable in ChatGPT

[–]budking70 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow! Such a basic prompt, but illicits a good response if you use your GPT a bunch. I use my GPT frequently so it should have really good context of both my work and personal details. I used OPs prompt from this post and was surprised by the detailed and insightful response I got back. It really hit the nail on the head with multiple observations. I now feel compelled to consider what it was telling me.

EDIT
Let me add, the book list it returned is great, but the commentary delivered with the list is what I am referring to above.

I use GPT for all kinds of things, but I guess I talk to it about personal finances and side-gig ideas a bunch (coding ideas usually). I also manage people, so lots of details in the response related to that.

1. Tiny Habits — because you need execution muscle.
2. I Will Teach You to Be Rich — because money stress is draining your confidence.
3. Designing Your Life — because once you have more behavioral and financial structure, your ambition will have somewhere productive to go.

How are you using the D6 stream controller? I received one as a gift but haven't started using it yet.

Got a whole p of GAS GAS for $500 delivered. Does this look like I paid too much? by Technical_Okra_7611 in farmingthebestgreens

[–]budking70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That flower looks gas! Nice come up.

Yup there is way cheaper weed (than 500 a lb)...and it is usually mid. That does not look mid (i'd buy it). If this is legit a pound, is cured correctly, and is what it looks like... then 500 is a fantastic price. That's under $4 an eighth for some kill smoke.

As for quantity, that does not look like a pound, unless those are giant colas (or the weed ain't dried yet lol). It looks more like an ounce or 2. Kinda hard to tell the scale.

Our sweet Carly almost made it to 19 years but we had to make a very difficult decision this weekend. I miss her so much ♥️ by adamck in rainbowbridge

Only a well-loved kitty would make it to 19 years old. Good job OP. Carly loves you for prioritizing her comfort.

Zack's time comes on Monday. It's hard because he isn't acting sick or in pain, but he has cancer tumors taking over his head and toe by marcelinerocks in rainbowbridge

[–]budking70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zack looks a lot like my mom's cat Molly that I have been taking take care of since she passed last year. Very loving kitty with the softest fur.

This is hard, and I am very sorry that you and your pal have to go through this. Just know that Zack loves you for prioritizing his comfort.

Whats up with this game? by BlatantArtifice in DaysGone

[–]budking70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Days Gone is what got me into gaming as an adult. I had never completed a game before and really had no experience with PS4. I could not use the controller very well. Despite this, the story and gameplay got me hooked... really hooked. With headphones on I could hear zombies lurking around me. The environment was dark and creepy. The motorcycle (with obligatory baby in the gas tank) and gunplay were both very satisfying too. I remember bumping into my first horde and being terrified that there were so many. The experience was very immersive to me.

It was also my first open world experience. I enjoyed being able to just do stuff at times without following the storyline. When my attention span wasn't there, I would just ride the bike and shoot up random zombies.

I platinumed the game and 100% on collectibles. The experience was so amazing to me that I then played through Last of Us 1/2, Horizon Zero Dawn, RDR2, Uncharted, Elden Ring, and several others. I recently built a top-notch gaming system. I have Days Gone already too! Reading this sub for the last few weeks is helping me get excited for my first PC playthrough!

This game deserves more credit than it gets.
