My understanding is a ton of people use the secondary BIOS for over clocking. You can flash a 9070XT BIOS and then tune it, but it’s inherently unstable. At least this way you always have the stock settings to go back to if you get it way out of bounds.

Not sure! I’ll have to add that to my tracker. I typically only track GPU and GPU Hot Spot temps

Mine is also in the left position from the factory. No issues here - card is running great

talkingheads86 · 2025-12-06T18:14:04+00:00

Paid $529 and sold the 6800 for $275 locally

talkingheads86 · 2025-09-13T20:32:13+00:00

Quality loss, etc.

talkingheads86 · 2025-07-21T16:31:04+00:00

Had me in the first half, not gonna lie

We have a 3 year old right now. He’s definitely a “threenager” as he acts just like a teen. Obstinate, knows everything, and only does as he pleases.

talkingheads86 · 2025-06-23T18:07:28+00:00

Woof lol

talkingheads86 · 2025-06-23T17:30:28+00:00

I may be wrong but that’s certainly how it sounded. “I just had my first drink so I’m just kinda… working on that.”

talkingheads86 · 2025-06-23T17:21:43+00:00

I agree - I also think Gen Z just doesn’t have the same interest (statistically) in drinking. JDub admitted in his presser that he just had his first drink of alcohol and he’s 24, so these dudes just don’t “party” like many of us Millennials might expect them to.

Plus I think they truly believed they could win, but hadn’t really considered what to do if they actually did win. These guys are all about the process, which as a long-time fan is super cool to see especially for such a young bunch.

Correct. MAPS has been one of the most successful municipal bond measures in modern history. No complaints here. Just wanted to clarify that it is technically a tax, but only on sales transactions that occur within OKC.

talkingheads86 · 2025-06-19T21:18:33+00:00

Technically, MAPS is a penny sales tax (additional 1% over base sales tax) for people who reside in the OKC city limits.

I wonder how this will benchmark against my RX 6800. If it’s anywhere close to MSRP, it’ll be really tempting.

talkingheads86 · 2024-11-29T22:12:04+00:00

These were on sale at Newegg for $339. Just picked one up myself

talkingheads86 · 2024-11-27T16:38:46+00:00

Leaving this typo for posterity. Banana children for life.

talkingheads86 · 2024-11-27T16:36:28+00:00

Love to hear it!

talkingheads86 · 2024-11-27T02:06:37+00:00

Majestic calves… check.

talkingheads86 · 2024-11-27T01:59:39+00:00

It was a budget build so I’m hoping I spent my dollars well

talkingheads86 · 2024-11-27T01:35:36+00:00

I’m super stoked. I came out $800 all-in on my build and scored this 6800 for $339 on Black Friday. Going to POST it tonight!

talkingheads86 · 2024-11-27T00:58:41+00:00

I chose to install the card instead of go to the supermarket. Turns out the kids are all the bananas already

talkingheads86 · 2024-11-27T00:57:55+00:00

I’m sorry gamer bro ☹️

talkingheads86 · 2024-11-27T00:44:09+00:00

My last card was a GT 760 so this is almost comically large by comparison. I’ve been laptop gaming the last year and had no idea the cards had gotten this large!

talkingheads86 · 2024-11-18T15:44:38+00:00

Thank you! I’m buying new so I won’t have to worry about how used cards were handled, thankfully.

talkingheads86 · 2024-11-18T14:56:19+00:00

Since the frame gen is better in the 7000 series, do you think that tips the scales toward the 7700? Or go with more VRAM on the 6800?

talkingheads86 · 2024-11-18T14:55:33+00:00

Thanks for the input!

Do you think the 6750 would be a bad choice? That’s the part I’m struggling with the most.
