New The PC Build Thread

Guys I'm trying to sell my gaming pc. Am I asking too much or is this realistic for this spec? I'm asking 23K neg. It includes monitor and keyboard.

CPU - Ryzen 7 5700x3d
Mobo - ASUS tuf B450 plus gaming
PSU - Super Flower SF-750F14HG(BK) Leadex III Gold 750W 80 Plus Gold Fully Modular Black Desktop Power Supply
Case - Phanteks PH-EC350PTG_DBW Eclipse P350X Tempered Glass Black & White Steel ATX Mid Tower Desktop Chassis
2TB NVME m.2 Mushkin tempest SSD
x2 WD Green 250GB SSD
1TB WD Black HDD
RTX ASUS ROG Strix White Edition 3080 10GB
ID-Cooling frostflow x240 lite AIO
Redragon K596RGB Vishnu Wireless Mechanical Keyboard
AOC CQ27G1 27" Quad HD 2560x1440 144hz Monitor
 
Seems reasonable to me. When did you put it up for sale? I think this time of year is a bit dead as most have overspent in December.

May also be easier to split things up.
 
I had it up on Carbonite a few months ago but got no real interest only a few low balls asking 17-16K. Is carbonite dead? feels like there is not a lot of traffic going on. I've also had it up on facebook marketplace for a few days. Again usual nonsense and low balls or people only wanting certain parts.

I would try splitting things. Its more work but most people don't buy everything in one go like that.
You can keep the case as one unit but take out the extra drives and list everything else as separate items.

Carbinite is quite busy now.

You'd probably sell individual components quicker. The GPU will sell quick on it's own along with the X3D chip.

Most folk won't want an older Mainboard or the monitor.

Yep, better off splitting parts on carbonite as the users there are more tech savvy than the usual vleisbroek or tandvleisboom.
cpu, board, gpu and psu should sell fast. the rest you'll sit on for a bit.

Rough idea on carb prices:

cpu: can buy new for 4k, so less than 3.5k
board: 1.5k-ish
psu: 1.6k new, so probably 1.2k if you want to let it go fast
1tb hdd: worthless
240gb ssd: bout R200 each
2tb ssd: its a mushkin, not much resale value on carb, prob 1.2k-1.5k if you lucky
gpu: about 9k ( more if you find a schmuck that wants to pay the strix logo + white colour tax )
cooler/keyboard: wont be an easy sell at all
case: since its not new, probably 1k-ish or sit on it for months at a higher price
Monitor: no idea

PSU requirements for the new Radeon cards seem on the high side:

AMD claims there will be versions with lower requirements.

Seeing all the suggested pricing rumours, and the alleged price at which one card has allegedly been acquired. Then the 7800 XT, 7900 XT, and 7900 XTX prices should tumble.

We know that the 7900 GRE has been discontinued, but that is the norm with GRE models. Alleged insiders said that the 7800 XT is also discontinued, though it isn't announced. It is an odd sphere in which the 9070/XT will compete with top-to-mid-range 7000 series GPUs. More will be known next month.

From how it looks now, the 9070 XT GPUs with high boost clocks will need some power to get there. Soon to be revealed.

This hype, though :coffee:
 
Okay so I have everything except for ram. I was told to get 6000mhz cl30, but is 7200mhz cl34 better? It costs just a little more.

It depends on your cpu and motherboard. If they can use the higher frequency then the 7200mhz cl34 should be a bit faster. If they can't then the 6000mhz cl30 will be faster.
But I don't believe you will notice the difference.
 
Hi memse

Is this a good system that will last some time:
Ryzen 5 7600X
Fuma 3 120mm Black PWM Premium High-End CPU Cooler
ASUS PRIME X670-P WIFI
G.Skill Trident Z5 NEO RGB 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5-6000MHz CL30 1.35V
Gigabyte Radeon RX 7600 XT Gaming OC Edition
Super Flower SF-850
Teamgroup TM8FFC002T0C129 CLASSIC C47 2TB

I already have a case and a few hdds and ssds so thats no biggy
This coming from
i3, stock cooler, some asus lga board, 16gb ddr4, radeon rx 560, 650w corsair psu
 
Any idea what the price of the 5070 ti will be? The cheapest 4080 on Wootware is about 25k. I'm guessing around the same price or maybe closer to 20k?
 
I would guess somewhere around R22k starting price. Definitely not worth it, just grab a secondhand 4080.

Solid.

Only weak component is the Scythe Fuma cooler. Rather get an ID-Cooling A620 Pro (Cheap option) or Deepcool AK620 (better option) cooler.

AMD has released its materials covered by non-disclosure agreements. I guess that this would be a revision to the review notes, since some tech reviewers already alluded to having received their review units some time ago, at around CES 2025.

AMD has already made its announcement date public; that is on the 28th, and the review embargo ends on the 5th. Given the tight NDAs I don't think that the reviewers have received the new drivers. The current two preview drivers are a bit ripped.

All in all, I think reviewers will have 5 days to review GPUs that some might have already received.

As per this slide that was presented to reviewers at CES, and not to the public:

I think that is the expectation. The only question I have, since both AMD and Nvidia like to cloud expectations, is whether that is rasterization or dependent on other technologies.

When reviewers review the GPU, I hope that they also benchmark the RX 7900 XTX/XT/GRE and 7800 XT on those same new drivers. That is whether AMD will make a new driver available, since I don't think that the RX 9070 XT is on the same branch... because FSR 4, and whatnot.

Anyhow, this will all boil down to price and whether AMD will discontinue the 7900 XT. It is weird to compete with your own product stack.

I guess the MSRP will be slightly below its direct competitor, albeit MSRP is a lie, so eh... Reviewers review the value at MSRP, but in reality, once the market moves, it tends to blow up.
 
Rtx 5070ti not getting good reviews mostly due to the actual pricing.




PC gamer likes it if MSRP pricing is there. Seems overclock very well.

Nvidia RTX 5070 Ti review (MSI Ventus 3X)

A GPU with performance close to an RTX 5080 that's sadly set to be priced to oblivion.

Looking at HUB's 4K averages:

The RX 9070 XT is going to be between a rock and a hard place.

Maybe 1440P will be its sweet spot, but the chart doesn't look much better.

Again, it will be all about price, and say AMD did manage to stock up on supply, then they might negate how the market reacts. I won't get my hopes up; AMD came in way under expectations in the datacenter business.

On to the next generation... that is, whether it will survive the global trade wars.

They say the 5070 Ti is a good OC, too. For those who want some extra gains, it is there. Odd that it isn't being talked about in the day-1 reviews since it used to be all the rage.

Pricing is crazy.
 
The YouTubers tend to talk about oc in the follow up reviews. The article reviews like guru3d and pcg did talk about the OC.
