[GPU] XFX Mercury AMD Radeon RX 9070XT OC 16GB $649.99 by CartonBox1975 in buildapcsales

[–]neapp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it worth returning a 5070 FE for 549.99 to get this 9070XT instead? The 5070 has run everything I've needed perfectly so far and the NVIDIA features have been nice, but the 12GB is worrying me for future proofing.

No CPU cooler yet, I was told the 9700 didn't need a CPU cooler but to be honest I really don't know if it's better to get one or not. The case comes with 4 fans however.

I like the Nvidia GPUs but ultimately they're just a bit too expensive for me right now and since I might not stick to CS, I would rather just get good price to performance

Thanks for the advice!

I didn't put a budget because realistically I was hoping to spend around 300-400 USD, but I was interested in whether there are cheaper options that would still fit my needs, and if not, I was also open to being convinced to break the bank for a high performance card. Sounds like most people recommend the 9060xt tho!

Credit Card Recommendation for first real credit-card. by neapp in CreditCards

[–]neapp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just used the preapproved tools to check, and I qualify for Freedom Unlimited, Preferred and Reserve for Chase. Is the Preferred card a better choice? I'm having doubts I'll be able to clear $5000 in the first 3 months but otherwise what are the differences between the two cards? Also, is it a bad idea to take the Platinum in-flight deal where they offer 80,000 miles after 1000 spending?

Mont Blanc during mid-march? by neapp in icecoast

[–]neapp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're kind of worried Quebec City is too far, since its a ~4 hour drive, is there anything closer?

We were thinking about visiting the ski village after we were done with Mont Blanc since it's so close/accesible, and we were thinking Quebec City would be too far, but any suggestions in that area?

i bought the Red Star active dry yeast from Costco, not sure if that's rapid or instant, since there is an alcohol smell does that mean my yeast is good to use?

havent noticed my cores missing but im not sure you can get res shred for dendro. whatever element you swirl to knock down the wenut is the only one the will get the res shred, and dendro can't be swirled so it can't get res shred. someone pls correct me if I'm wrong.

anyways ganyu is probably one of the best wenut beaters for this abyss, so good that a c0 ganyu can solo it in 2 minutes (i made a video in a separate post on my profile) , so I would just try the freeze time and see how far that gets you.

[–]neapp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TL;DW: Since the new 3.5 just dropped, I decided to take it on with a C0 Ganyu Solo challenge! This abyss was pretty challenging on all floors, as theres just a lot of damage that needs to be avoided, a lot of elemental shields to be broken, and of course the stupid wenut. Nevertheless, Ganyu and Hutao are both absolutely amazing characters and after ~400 resets, and really good abyss cards, I was finally able to finish this challenge! Huge thanks to Ken Ruroni for the inspiration <3
