Lol a 3060 is a waste of money. Just go find a used 2060 super. Performance is damn near identical. I see why they didn’t bother making a founders edition.

I ain't about to drop $350 on a used 2060S with no warranty, plus I'm not using it for gaming all like that, I'd be doing more rendering than anything. Those youtube reviewers are focusing on gaming and I'm looking at the other specs. I'm at 1440p so the 3060 is too weak anyway but it'll be a stop-gap.

Added hyperx pudding keycaps and corsair mm800 polaris, rgb indeed

I'm looking for another mouse since my corsair m65 pro died last month. I'll probably go with logitech g502 hero, my spare g500 still strong after all of these years

Its still a waste of money unless you just have don't have a gpu and need one and that's the only one you can get

for gaming you might as well get a ps5 than that shyt

and for rendering it still isn't worth it for the price, you gotta get the random select shyt on newegg to get on MSRP, and they got 3060s going for 500-600 dollars from third party sellers on new egg

The 3060 is literally made out of the left over parts from the other cards, its the only reason the released it just so they wouldn't waste it

thats why it ain't no founders edition

Brehs am looking for a good 1440p monitor. Im getting a 3070. Am thinking about something in the Gigabyte M27Q Range. If anyone knows anything better around the same price would appreciate it. These online reviews have me confused. Does G sync really make that big a difference ? the m27q is gsync compatible and Display port 1.2.

I got 5 g's to spend on a new PC from scratch and I still feel like it won't be enough.

These prices even at retail

Should I just hold this L and buy a Switch and/or PS5 for the time being? At least I can wrap my head around those at the moment.
