NVIDIA RTX 3000 series

Should’ve done for all cards.

They postponed it to the day after AMD announces RX 6000 cards. I think it is more marketing move, than technical.

Totally. Especially now that their cards are crashing. Whoops…shouldn’t have said that.

Eh, I will stick to this RX 580 longer… even if I went RTX 3k Series at this point, the issues are there… and we know Big Navi’s Drivers are gonna have issues at the start anyhow… mise well stay stable for now atleast.

Friends don’t let friends use amd cards. Anything nvidia is better than what you have. This is coming from someone who’s first nvidia card was a 1080. I got sick of amd just always sucking. Until radeon pulls off a ryzen, you should never buy them.

I don’t think that is quite true. AMD hits the best price per performance ratio. If you have infinite money, Nvidia can give you better performance, but AMD wins in the mid-range hands down.

I don’t do sub-high-end anymore. AMD also is really lacking in the driver and special feature department. 70% of the ā€œfeaturesā€ in their control panel don’t do fuck all 98% of the time. Force vsync in nvidia control panel. It works. Do it in amd control panel, crickets. I would argue that rtx, dlss, dsr, and working check boxes make nvidia the better bang for the buck…as all of thier bangs, actually bang.

Nvidia isn’t thaaaaaaaaat expensive haha.

Yeah, 1060 and up out performs an rx580. Heck maybe even 1050ti or 970. Given a 3070 goes toe to toe with a 2080ti for 400, I don’t think price is a problem anymore…that and the 3060 and below aren’t even announced yet. Radeon needs to make their control panel actually work 100% and start competing in the high end before I’ll even consider them for a future purchase…and Linus and Jay both have to have their minds blown.

I have no issues with the control panel, so :man_shrugging:

They might have fixed it or removed the non-functional options since I was rocking Fury Xs, but in all my years of ati/amd cards it’s always been only half functional. I remember so many games where the solution to the problem was turning off vsync in game and forcing it via control panel, it never worked until I went over to team green. The vsync thing is just one example.

RTX 3070 costs > 1000 usd here right now. Crazy

There’s no point in buying anything in the 3000 series until the supply is steady.

Meh. I’d rather throw rotten vegetables at the people that buy from the scalpers more than the scalpers. :potato: :apple: :melon:
