Cyberpunk on sale at gog

Use a Russian vpn and eat.

I don't think it's a "sale", but I ate nonetheless

I'm looking at RAM right now but no info has come out on what the 5900x is going to handle, I read somewhere that it's going to follow the same architecture and be solid at 3600Mhz C16 but then AMD said it's gonna be able to Overclock better than the 3000 series was able to.

Can’t find a actual good prebuilt at all

Any brehs in here have experience undervolting their GPU? Is it safe? Seems like it's the best way to run these ampere cards.

Picked up a pair of these

Don't care about response time and all that nonsense honestly since I don't plan on any sweaty gaming. I did want 4Ks but that can come later. I'm at $1300 and still counting . I hope black friday comes through with the TV deals so I can upgrade that. Looking at 550ish for the Series X after tax, 550 for the 5900 (but I still want the 5950), however much the Asus Dark Hero is gonna cost, and then the GPU on top of that. Long way to go, hope nobody expects Christmas presents

It is safe, just do it in small increments, unless you have settings from someone credible.

3090 has its advantages, it can overlock with getting hot, and it doesn't how to get loud to stay cool, because its so big

What are those advantages

That’s the normal price, pick up an ultra wide unless you want 2 individual monitors for a particular reason.

NZXT or Corsair
Everywhere else you will pay too much to get decent parts.

Nzxt has the only prebuilts I would buy ( I did). shyt comes with a 2 year warranty on everything and all the parts are good parts that go at MSRP. The only extra your paying for is $100 for them to put it together, and $100 if u wanna count the Operating System since you could find it online for like $10 bucks.

I have no regrets with my shyt, I’ve upgraded a few parts since I bought it.

I under volt with AfterBurner. Makes it relatively simple. My previous case has some airflow problems and I did that to help keep the GPU cool.

I just kept the profile. 10c+ cooler is nice.

It was available to purchase

the build quality is better than AIBs, and the card will return its value for years so you can always sell it and get your money back
