AirRaid posted:All this talk about potentially sub standard power delivery from old PSUs is making me glad I was forced to update mine. Same. Went from 6 year old bronze non modular to an 850 evga T2 At the time I though “being able to get this soon” was way more valuable but I regret nothing. The quality difference was hilarious and markup from normal retail was almost nothing.

pyrotek posted:Increasing the render scale should help with the clarity more than reduce the jaggies. I agree the TAA solution in the game is very effective.  @ 1440p It's weird, in MSI Afterburner's RTSS output it says my average framerate was 95+ for the one on High settings, but the frametimes are super erratic. CapFrameX captures frametime data from RTSS, and CapFrameX sees the frametimes as far less erratic than Afterburner, but CapFrameX also sees the frametimes being much longer. I'm not sure what's going on. Even though GPU usage wasn't maxed in either scenario, High + increased texture settings looks very good and is subjectively a lot smoother. I might just bump the world detail to soak up excess GPU. I'll try and play around with it some more later. The HOTAS I got in the mail today was defective.

Kraftwerk posted:Hearing all this 1000W stuff makes me feel nervous. I have the HX750i and also get +150MHz on the core on the 3080 FE. I can actually put it through benchmarks successfully at +200MHz but it does crash in some games. OC Scanner gives stable results with the post-launch drivers too, and it found an average +142MHz increase on the core for me, so I got it pretty close with a flat +150. Dude putting +700 on the memory: you should check with OC Scanner and then validate through repeated benchmark runs. I could put +600MHz on my memory and not get performance degradation, but once I overclocked the core I found that +200MHz on the memory and +600MHz on the memory gave pretty much identical scores when averaged over multiple runs. OC Scanner recommends +200MHz and I'm guessing the driver knows when the memory encounters error detection or not (whereas we have to guess through benchmark regressions).

I solved my "some of my fans aren't pwm" problem today. The corsair 4000D airflow can fit 3 a12x25s on the front  I'm tired of my 450D having "dust filters" in its front intake that have left my exhaust radiator filthy. Its time to join the glorious modern world of no 5.25 drive bays.

Not saying they aren't crazy scarce but there's definitely going to be a tendency for people who got the cards to just drop out of groups meant to help get cards so stats like that probably paint a bleaker picture even than the reality.

There are also a ton of idle people in any discord. That was by no means 11,153 people trying to hit up each and every drop. The number of active people at any given point would be a very small minority.

There's little reason for you to be running such a low res. MSFS is a DX11 game that's bottlenecked badly by draw calls, which means that you're being heavily bottlenecked by something that doesn't scale with resolution. It's basically Crysis/Oblivion levels of being badly bottlenecked by a single CPU core in a way that doesn't scale for poo poo. It'll probably run dramatically faster if they ever get around to a DX12 version.

 I already have my 3080 but im going to keep buying until demand dies down I have an xc3 or ftw ultra in the notify list from 9/17. Who wants it when it becomes available and which one? Fauxtool fucked around with this message at 02:59 on Oct 10, 2020 |

I'll take the ultra if I don't manage to snag one by then. I didn't get on the notify list until recently when they posted about the queue system. And discord's haven't done poo poo for me. Too slow.

DrDork, as a long time poster of the gpu thread and seemingly chill dude you will get my 3080 xc3 for the nominal fee of $100, the same price i charged the last chill goon That is unless "animal" shows up to claim it in lets say 24 hours from now because he asked nicely for my next card on oct1st. Im pretty sure FEs are dropping tonight so who know maybe you both get them soon.

If you manage to nab another FE I'd be interested in that over the XC3, honestly. e; where did you see FE's possibly dropping? BB already had their drop earlier today, and NVidia lol'ed out of their own storefront. DrDork fucked around with this message at 03:35 on Oct 10, 2020 |

Thanks for remembering me, he can have it. I have the three non-FTW cards on notify from 9/16. One’s for me and the other two are for two friends building new rigs. But any other cards I manage to buy are going to Goons ITT, and I may be willing to trade an Evga for a FE card if anyone is willing (I like the aesthetic)

because they have been dropping weekly on weekday nights since launch and there hasnt been one this week If you have 3 on notify you have to choose one. I dont think you will be able to get 3 from what I read

To be fair, the spreadsheet is probably what 10% of people in the queue? 5%? Less? It is certainly not a majority i dont think.

It is certainly not a majority i dont think. it is like the discord survey where everyone who got a card already left, people are just looking for a reason to rage about shortages. It is the same situation as with Pascal. cards are moving pretty well now and will continue to move over the next two months, they will be easier to get ahold of during the Christmas season and supply should match up to demand in January, Jensen’s statement is unsurprising and that’s basically been my predicted timeline all along Much like Pascal this is the worst launch ever and then in two years the next one will be the worst launch ever too.
