Has anyone here that bought a 4090/4080 had issues with space in their cases? I've been giving a hard look at a Fractal torrent to use as a case but if the 4070 ti ends up being decent and affordable but also the same size card as a 4080, I'm wondering what I'd have to do in order to have that poo poo fit and make sure it's properly supported so it doesn't make the board warp.

8-bit Miniboss posted:In a Meshify C, a FE 4080/90 will fit comfortably with fans. AIB cards, not so much. They’re just huge. Thanks for the photo reference, that definitely makes me feel a bit better about going ahead with it. Especially with your Noctua fan setup since that also takes up a sizeable chunk of real estate. You didn't feel the need to use any sort of support bracket to help distribute the weight? repiv posted:the full size torrent will have no problems, that has clearance for 423mm cards with the front fans installed and even the hugest 4090s are only about 360mm Nice. I don't think I'd go for the compact just because I'd want there to be enough room for everything. And for my hands to be able to get into spaces.

Yeah by this point I'm either waiting for what sort of pricing madness the 4070 ti is going to be, or waiting longer for another Asus x Noctua card.

Back in the day we would use the old GPU and stick into the media living room pc when I lived with roommates, gave it a separate sound card so it could do fun poo poo with the receiver, and play the highest quality movies we could get. Eventually shoving enough HDDs in it we would essentially stop watching regular tv once we hooked a blu ray drive and an hd-dvd drive into it.

FlamingLiberal posted:I don’t have a 4K monitor yet because of the absurd pricing, so I am happy to continue using my 3080 at 1440p for the next couple of years Like the old days of punch cards, GPUs will eventually require their own separate room/building with a thick cable going to the normal computer case, the actual chip will be getting smaller and smaller and everything else to cool it will keep getting exponentially larger and more absurd.

ughhhh posted:Used 3090s are still hovering around +850$ and i dont think its gonna get lower anytime soon, so if i were to set my expectations around that the 4070ti still feels better. Not good in anyway, but a brand new 4070ti looks like the best option? Still waiting on what Asus and Noctua cook up for their next card, but yeah agreed on all counts. It loving sucks.

GruntyThrst posted:Most 3080s are in the $600ish range now, or get there within a day of bidding. For a card that’s supposed to be MRSP $700 and two years old , feels kinda bad Most important of all, USED, not new. All the new ones have apparently been gobbled up or just being scalped to high heaven.

Inept posted:I wonder how Nvidia's delayed TSMC allocation is going to affect their pricing as the year goes on. If they're already seeing 4080s on shelves with a delayed allocation, what happens when they need to put the rest to use? Why just make more SuperPods of course!  Man, I KNOW the Asus x Noctua 4080 is super bad value but I really really want it.  I'm just wondering how loving thick that sucker is going to be.

So with the 4070Ti on the Asus, Gigabyte, and other board partner versions that factory OC the GPU. Is that why some are priced so ridiculously expensive from whatever NVIDIA calls the MSRP? Didn't other cards a gen or two back stuff more or less VRAM into tbose cards at the same time with the OC option? Or is my brain finally melting into jelly?

Pretty much. I've always come at it from the angle of I have other stuff I need to do, but I also want to use it to play games at least well enough to get 60fps. Using a laptop cooler with built in fans has helped quite a bit in mitigating the heat that can come off of it. I didn't have enough cash to build a proper rig, but I did have enough, if I timed it right, to get a quality laptop that so far has lasted me 7 plus years. Currently has a 1060 in it.

Twerk from Home posted:The increased cost is mostly because of the license, the software license on Nvidia drivers specifically prohibit gaming Geforce cards from being used in a datacenter at any time. Forgive my ignorance, but what would be the point as far as functionality compared to the current air cooling solution? Being able to propel your Fractal Torrent FORWARD?

Inept posted:Blizzard regularly has launches that they need to prepare for and have flexible capacity for. It's not excusable that they still have issues at launch. It isn't 2006 anymore. AWS and GCP and flexible capacity are standard for large games like Apex and Valorant, but Blizzard probably has over a decade of technical debt that no one bothered to fix. This is why the buyout and merger needs to happen you guys!

After going to my first Microcenter and drooling at their stock of GPUs I didn't know there was a 4090 variant that's "slim" has anyone got one, noticed a significant difference in temp or noise? Would they be a viable candidate for a smaller form factor?

KillHour posted:I would not be surprised if a big reason 4090s are suddenly available is because of the rumors about the 5090 releasing this year and being a ringer. People are (smartly) starting to hold off. There's a good chance I would have ordered a FE 4090 a few weeks ago if one was available but now I'm waiting. Honestly it really depends on how big the new series of cards are going to be, cause 40's are freaking massive.
