Do any PSU manufacturers cover components damaged by a PSU defect?

Don't go with Nvidia if you want to use Linux.

3080 12gb
or 3080ti
or 3090

if the prices are bothering you, JustWait(TM)
prices have already dropped a bit since the last dip in crypto prices
they will drop further

so b460 / 10th gen doesn't support pcie3.0 ssd, but when i'd pair a 10th gen cpu with a b560 motherboard, would it support my GPU at pcie4?

For future proofing, should I get a 1000 watt PSU?

I hear next gen GPUs will be power hogs?

is 70C edge/85C junction load on rx 6800 good temperatures

Just got my dad a 3070 ti for vr flight sims, seems to do just fine.

No, your CPU must support it.

conversely a rocket lake CPU on a z490 board will support pci e 4

thanks anons, was hoping the pcie 3 limit was just for SSDs

I hate my local retailers
Sure 3070 3080 prices went down by $300-400
But 3060 isnt
WTF

I just sold a new 3060 for $600 on FB Market. I decided I needed better and never used it.

Not many want lower end cards here as it's a Microcenter town.

>Zogbots vs Putin War is temporarily cancelled.
The retarded Ukrainian president is asking for a "day of unity" on the 16th soooo im sure russia will honor that.

Anything vr should have a 3080 ti minimum.
