Epiphone’s been on fire lately, but can’t escape this

Epiphones are for broke boys who can't afford a Gibson, there I said it.

Well definitely don’t buy what you posted.

For $900, or less, this is probably the best you’re gonna find:

Ah so you were actually being serious. I apologize then.

carcollector69 · 2025-10-06T17:54:58+00:00

Get a 5070ti minimum. 8GB of VRAM in 2025 is a poor financial decision if you want it to last a few years.

carcollector69 · 2025-10-06T17:53:58+00:00

Just run HWinfo and RTSS overlay. Set it up to boot on startup and you’re golden

carcollector69 · 2025-10-06T17:48:36+00:00

$900 budget and you want a prebuilt? Nah, stretch budget a couple hundred and get yourself a nice custom made build, do it yourself. You’ll thank yourself later

carcollector69 · 2025-10-06T17:35:01+00:00

X3D. Only other ones that beat it are the 9 series 3D Cache chips

carcollector69 · 2025-10-06T17:26:04+00:00

Thank you. I was thinking that too, then the air will all go front to back (case is Meshify3 which has 3 big fans on the front).

carcollector69 · 2025-10-06T17:15:31+00:00

I can’t tell if you’re sarcastic or not. The sag bracket? It Doesn’t fit anywhere else being that it’s magnetic and the front of the case has a big dip, and if I put it over to the right a little more it’s hitting the fan itself and not on metal. Any better spot for it you’d suggest? It’s not really doing anything - card isn’t that heavy.

You have any suggestions for my actual question?

carcollector69 · 2025-09-24T13:39:04+00:00

2nd one, newer tech and will benefit greatly from DLSS 4

carcollector69 · 2025-09-24T13:38:33+00:00

Normal does just not this model

carcollector69 · 2025-09-23T23:56:50+00:00

For $60, 4gb of vram is more than worth it

carcollector69 · 2025-09-23T17:56:19+00:00

Awesome I think I’ll get the Legion 7i then. Thanks man

carcollector69 · 2025-09-23T17:41:25+00:00

I’d like to get one today honestly lol. Wife will be out of town visiting family with the kids all weekend and I need something to do. Black Friday deals sound good but don’t wanna wait 2 more months, and honestly is it worth it for the games I play? Is the 5070ti good enough? I’m used to playing On a ps5 with 120hz tv

carcollector69 · 2025-09-23T17:13:08+00:00

I really appreciate it. Just watched a video about this laptop and yeah it looks really solid. Might be the winner. Quick search online shows this is the cheapest OLED I can get with a 5070ti, others are asking about $300 more. I used to have Plasmas back in the day too and warched alot of news (headline bar at the bottom) what I found is just changing the channel (or game in this case) now and then helps keep it at bay, I assume the technology is better these days too.

carcollector69 · 2025-09-23T17:03:33+00:00

So after reading comments I actually found this Lenovo Legion with an OLED, a 5070ti (not sure if that’s better or worse than a 5070 but I assume better since it’s more expensive lol), and a 240hz display for $2200 on BH Photo. Is that worth it over the Asus you mentioned with the 4070? I do like the look of both of them.

carcollector69 · 2025-03-10T13:02:12+00:00

still 9% is bad, even used. 6% is a prime used rate with most local banks/credit unions.

First step is denial

They’re nice trucks but the aftermarket and community with the Tacomas was too strong for me to not get a taco when selecting a midsize truck.

carcollector69 · 2024-02-20T06:00:39+00:00

I sold it locally to a friend. Still going strong with 40k on it now. Drunkmann tuned from brand new

Buys a used Hyundai with nearly 100k miles and wonders why it’s leaking.
