V-cache Zen4 some time late this year
RX 7700, RTX 4080 & 4090 - Soon after Zen4
RX 7970 may be coming this year

first for OP has autism

Second for first post has ligma

What's the best GPU for VR? Assuming Quest 2 / Index resolution and coom game like Virtamate.

wait a few months for the 4080

it'll be good for high resolution cases like VR plus it'll also work as a space heater for winter

Best card for $200? I'm betting on the $170 b-stock 1080 from EVGA on Wednesday.

just flip a few more burgers and wait for ETH to tank a little more and see at what price you can get a RX 6600

Will these parts all work together? It fits my poorfag budget perfectly because of sales at the microcenter in Brooklyn.

Will switching from a bad cabinet to 4000D airflow give me better temps vs getting a cpu cooler in similar price range?

I was given $1000 for to upgrade my PC. My GPU is a 5700Xt I don't think it needs upgrading but my CPU (i5-4690k) and the rest probably does. I was just wondering if you guys could lead me down the right direction

Looks fine, except for the watercooler meme

I fell like this is the most heavily debated topic in /pcbg/.

5600X+b550+16GB RAM, you could sell 5700XT for 6700XT.

specs?

But you kind of need one for flagship CPUs, don't you? Your system isn't going to feel as Gucci as its price tag if it starts roaring whenever you stretch its legs.

what is a bad cabinet?

and what parts

Redpill me on the expected performance of RDNA3 and Lovelace.

sucks, they were high on the crypto hog and felt no need to innovate

I've an Antec GX200 with i3-8100 and 1060 inside it. I'm going to replace them with 5600x + 3060ti.

is a 240 rad enough to keep a 5600X in high 50s to mid 60s in 1080p max gaming with bigger titles?

lmfao it's a 65w cpu. a noctua tower would do the job

yeah but I want to not have to deal with too much fan noise

how bad are driver problems on amd GPU's ?

that's why you go with noctua and not stock

list all your specs.

they just werk on linux, unless my problem has been a driver issue this whole time and not that I'm trying to game 1440p on an RX 550

They're about "Firefox" bad.
You don't really notice how bad they are when using them until you switch to Nvidia (Chrome) and you notice, 'Hey, all those little issues that I thought were 'normal computer operation' were really just AMD being bad."
