I know it doesn't, it's just something new.

2019-11-14 22:58:31 UTC  

ok

2019-11-14 23:04:41 UTC  

Not answer either but....Have got RTX 2080. Would recommend. Got bundled with built PC as could not deal with build as too much to juggle. Can play _most_ optimized games 4K (3860x 2180 or whatever) on max or near at 60fps

2019-11-14 23:05:36 UTC  

Is very expensive though as prob know. Dealt with potato for a long time and had to shell out

2019-11-14 23:05:59 UTC  

Yeah.

2019-11-14 23:06:24 UTC  

Always gonna be new GPU but RTX is apparently a big leap lots apparently to do with manufacturing process

2019-11-14 23:06:36 UTC  

That's why I was looking at the 2070 Super. Guy at the shop said it basically runs equivalent to a 1080 or something similar, but costs half as much.

2019-11-14 23:07:06 UTC  

Sounds good

2019-11-14 23:07:31 UTC  

My only qualm is that someone I talked to said that my motherboard is going to be a huge bottleneck, so it isn't worth getting any RTX cards.

2019-11-14 23:07:32 UTC  

Is hard to pull trigger though. I am rather neurotic

2019-11-14 23:07:47 UTC  

OIC

2019-11-14 23:08:02 UTC  

I'm more prone to making a stupid impulse buy, or else going with the first thing the salesman recommends if it isn't something I've already got my eye on.

2019-11-14 23:08:19 UTC  

My question has more to do with whether I should listen to that guy or not.

2019-11-14 23:08:52 UTC  

I am not really that well versed on intricacies. Have a wide range of info but mile wide inch deep

2019-11-14 23:08:56 UTC  

I don't see why it should be, since the X570s are brand new.

2019-11-14 23:09:05 UTC  

Yeah, I'm the same way.

2019-11-14 23:09:21 UTC  

Sure. It is hard to know. It is very esoteric

2019-11-14 23:09:41 UTC  

I mean, they all come with PCIe 4.0.

2019-11-14 23:10:01 UTC  

You know more than me. I am already out of my depth

2019-11-14 23:10:02 UTC  

AFAIK, no cards use 4.0, they still use 3.0.

2019-11-14 23:10:28 UTC  

My current system, with Windows 10, should in theory run DirectX 12.

2019-11-14 23:11:37 UTC  

Is there a way to get it check and send back if unsure? Unsure how consumer rights are where you are

2019-11-14 23:12:15 UTC  

I got it back in August, so no. It's well past its return date.

2019-11-14 23:12:22 UTC  

There's nothing wrong with the mobo.

2019-11-14 23:12:36 UTC  

And I built it out of parts bought separately.

2019-11-14 23:12:45 UTC  

My PC, that is.

2019-11-14 23:13:29 UTC  

Fairs enough. I mean get new card. Check. Go "Dont really fancy it". Put in box. Send back "Here you go GW here is your money"

2019-11-14 23:13:47 UTC  

Kinda scenario

2019-11-14 23:13:51 UTC  

Kek.

2019-11-14 23:13:55 UTC  

I get you.

2019-11-14 23:14:09 UTC  

I don't really know much about benchmarks, tbh.

2019-11-14 23:14:18 UTC  

Me neither

2019-11-14 23:14:49 UTC  

Though overall, I know my new system with 4k TV runs infinitely better, faster, smoother than my ten-year-old PC based around a 1st-gen Core i7.

2019-11-14 23:15:26 UTC  

I relied on my bro checking was good PC. I used to build back in the day of pentiums. Lost will to get in deep

2019-11-14 23:15:43 UTC  

Yeah. I built my last PC, as well as this one.

2019-11-14 23:15:54 UTC  

I can put wires in right place and flash a BIOS

2019-11-14 23:16:03 UTC  

I just RTFM.

2019-11-14 23:16:06 UTC  

Seems to work.

2019-11-14 23:16:11 UTC  

Yeah

2019-11-14 23:16:27 UTC  

Not always easy with some of the case connectors for the motherboard.

2019-11-14 23:16:38 UTC  

I have a short attention span 😉
