3090
Had it since Feb 2023
Paid 0$, cousin gave it to me for free
Currently playing THE FINALS and E33
Might upgrade, but will wait and see what the next gen Intel / Nvidia / Amd cards offer. Don't really feel like I need to right now.

4090, but it was honestly a waste of money. I'm getting more use out of it by generating AI porn and my self insert text novels on SillyTavern. Not with actual games. The Steam Deck can play everything worth playing from the PS2, Gameboy era

Right now I've been doing RE4R and RE2R randomizers. Next game I'm going to play will either be MGS Delta next month or maybe Outer Wilds in the meantime, don't have much free time right now, big work project going on
>Are you planning on upgrading?
At the moment nothing, I don't have the money to really do a big upgrade, and if I'm going to upgrade I do want to do a new rebuild to move up to AM5. However I just """upgraded""" my RAM this week. My PC is also my workstation, and I work as a freelance 3D artist. When I first built this PC in 2020 I got 64GB of RAM, however at that time the only way to get 64GB was a 4 stick kit. As it turns out, 4 sticks in Ryzen 2 (I have a 3950x) is insanely unstable at anything but JEDEC clocks. My PC couldn't boot at anything but the default 2133mhz RAM clock no matter what timings were tried. I had a good opportunity to get a relatively affordable 64GB 2 stick 3600mhz kit this week and I grabbed it. It's actually insane how sensitive the Zen 2 processors are to RAM speed due to infinity fabric. Gaming 1% lows are noticeably improved (especially RE4R) and on the 3D side it's kind of insane, certain parts of rendering are incredibly improved (Building BVH) and my In Editor performance in UE5 exploded, my scene that ran at ~80 FPS is now capping the in editor fps at 120. Feel retarded for using that shitty RAM for 5 years.

If anyone is on a 3000 series Ryzen CPU still I implore you to ensure you've got your RAM at 3600mhz and by extension your FCLK at 1800mhz

is it a good idea to have a decent amount of extra wattage on your PSU? Like if my PC needs 800w estimated to run optimally, should I get 1k wattage or more/less? thinking of upgrading hard

December of 2022.

I was very fortunate and blessed to get it from Best Buy at the retail price of $1600 USD.
>What games are you playing?
Playing Switch Games at 4k over 100 fps either through unlocked FPS or through Lossless Scaling frame generation. Currently playing Super Mario 64 with Render96 Ray Traced using DLSS4 Performance mode at 120FPS.
>Are you planning on upgrading?
I wanted to get a 5090 FE so I can get on that "Free Upgrade" train by selling my 4090 FE for the retail price of a 5090 FE but I haven't had any real luck getting a 5090 FE where I live. I would say the 4090 FE is every bit worth the retail asking price considering how much I've gotten out of it.

I don't think humans are capable of create an horror worse than this, but we're considering using it to drive a VR set, as we found that the egocentric humans that created the card claimed that it could do VR, so they will experience it firsthand, and will enjoy it

they're better than Intel CPUs that's for sure. they're OK. but they can be buggy when playing old games due to Intel drivers having some compatibility issues with older directx versions.

$519 in Jan 2024, as part of a new AM5 build
Playing Warframe.. Finished BL3, started Quantum Break as both are part of a massive backlog of free Epic games I saved up with my old system.
Zero plan to up grade any time soon. I still play 1080p being I like having zero frame rate issues for anything. I don't see needing to upgrade anything for at least 4 years... Ehhh unless 1440p oled dump in price as a 32 inch monitor might be fun.

Before this, I had a R9 290 (AMD) (bought in summer 2014)
Nvidia commands a premium, but after having used both this is obviously an iPhone v Android situation and it is absolutely worth it.

Laptop with 4090. About 3 years. Has performed exceptionally well the entire time, more than good enough for my laptop's 1440p screen. I bought myself a portable 3k OLED recently and it runs that just fine too. What's interesting though is that it keeps exceptionally cool, I have lowered the temp limit to 75 because why not but it has never reached that limit and rarely even approaches it at max load. For what is essentially a power limited 4080 compressed to the size of a mobile phone, it's impressively cool.

Difference is that Nvidia is actually better than amd, while iphones only appeal to women and the mentally fevered.

4k is not a meme, path tracing is not a meme
What is a meme is the enjoyment of 144 fps vs 60 fps it's the fucking same.

60hz mouse cursor is unbearable so a high refresh monitor is nice

I had AMD rx590 since 2019 which I bought at a half price new from someone who won it at a game jam, so a pretty sweet deal (about $220). Awesome card and honestly I could still keep it if I really was short on money, since the latest game I tried on it (KCD2) still ran at 40fps medium 1440p

I have build a new PC with rtx 4070 and Ryzen 9900x. Card was about $700 iirc

4070S, $600 without tax. I'm enjoying playing games that ran like shit on my old rig since I spent a bit more on the CPU this time around but also doing AI so I'm getting pretty good mileage out of this card. DLSS4 is a bonus.

>>715908696
You sound like you're lying anon. Honestly I would've rather got a laptop or saved it towards a better GPU instead of getting a Steam Deck because this shit needed to go through at least another year of QA and you'll be playing most of the relevant games at 30fps if lucky.

Meanwhile that 24GB on your 4090 will last you for at least a decade. You could also do VR.

It really depends on the game, not sure if it's how the frames are handled or if there's blur or what but some games feel really choppy at 60 while some feel smooth. But for me the point of diminishing returns is around 80. There are a few older online competitive games that I play at 240, and although I do notice when I play them on another screen at only 100fps, I only notice for 45 seconds or so and then don't care anymore.

Depends on the game. It's night and day different in fast FPS games. Maters way less in single player
