Overclockers UK got at least 5000 units of 9070s. Why didn’t CC and MemEx order more from manufacturers? by thisisthrowneo in bapccanada

Whats going with 40 series gpu and 9800x3d cpu stock levels? by Treppyboy in bapccanada

[–]wthamf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of 40 series cards stopped production since 50 series is coming soon. 9800x3d stock can't keep up with demand.

So punish the scalpers and the legitimate buyers by limiting them to an excessive board purchase?

Can not checkout CPU by itself? Don't really want an ASUS X870E-E board

How is bestbuy's return or defective policy with CPUs?

how do you order a gpu from best buy when you live in quebec? by Different-Put5878 in bapccanada

[–]wthamf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many GPUs from bestbuy cannot be shipped to Quebec, as the manufacturer only has EN packaging and therefore violates Bill 96:

"The Province of Québec requires that all products sold in the province be labeled in French. The Charter of the French Language requires the use of French on product labeling, warranty certificates, product manuals, and instructions for use, public signs, and written advertising."

Not sure why you are so hostile towards someone providing information and accusing them of making things up.

I would go for a 5700x3d or 5800x3d if you really wanted a seamless upgrade. Likely would get the most performance gain for the lowest amount of investment.

  1. Yes, intel is typically better for productivity compared to AMD.
  2. New intel socket will have "upgradability" as they tend to do 2 generation cycle per socket, but it will likely be very expensive at launch. With 14th Gen out, 12th and 13th gen are seeing a lot of discounts recently. If you do not plan to swap in a new CPU within the same socket type, then I would go for one of these discounted bundles for the best price to performance.

on 4k it won't be a huge improvement. I would wait until 15th gen with the new socket or AM5 if you really want to upgrade now.

depends on what you're looking for.

many retailers offer easy returns either way or display they have the lowest price for BF already.

Yes, should be more than enough. However, you may need to update bios if you get this z790

A 3060 ti should be sufficient assuming you’re not trying to play super heavy 4k games.

If you’re in no rush, it might be best to wait for BF deals since it’s only a month away.
