got a 3070 for my wife's 5800x build



total about 170mhs

-369 core
+1369 mem
54% power


memory express had about 15 radeon cards including a bunch of 6800xts

2 3070s, I got an msi ventus 2x, they also had a gigabyte master for +$190

and a bunch of 3060s

but yea, they dont list stock online

They selling at retail price at memory express right? I think someone on this sub-forum spent $2000 on 3060Ti a few days back.

Just ran timespy. Got 16.4k

5600X, 3090, 64gb 3200mhz RAM, ASUS Tuf gaming x570 with wifi.

Probably CPU choked. Didn't see a need to spend extra on the CPU since I'll already be getting great frame rates on 4k games.

Now I just need a monitor that goes to 4k lol

Do you play Cyberpunk? Wonder how 3090 works with raytracing on in the game.

Yea cpu isn’t going to help at 4K, that 5600x is fine

That’s a nice set up, what monitor are you thinking about?

higher resolution less the cpu matters unless you dont have enough cores for the game
if you look at 4k benchmarks with highend cards even you will see that almost all cpus are within 10percent of each other on average

yea exactly

and realistically 10% is numbers to argue about, in real world performance the difference is insignificant

especially with the right monitor, vrr etc
