To you too mate and to all the OC3D Team/Members

Agreed, RAM prices are just making PCs an inaccessible luxury for many now on top of the already ridiculous GPU prices that people just accept now.

I agree with you on the burn without profit point. Obviously the scenario I listed is something I hope doesn't become a reality, but the barriers to entry for a new chip fabricator are very high, so it's going to be interesting to see where that supply does or doesn't come from

Call me a conspiracy theorist but this is how I see this going. - Prices stabilise - It becomes the "new normal" and this happens to GPUs, SSDs etc. too - Enthusiast PC ownership becomes even more of a luxury than it already is at the current price points - PC/Gaming enthusiasts are forced down...

My mate had this problem and it was the PSU. He had a no brand 850w and a EVGA 750w but had been using the no brand because he thought the bigger number would be better. Swapped tot he more trusted PSU and never had the issue again

Because they don't make you buy a new socket every generation and price to performance isn't horrific. Now if only AMD could do the same to Nvidia as far as GPUs are concerned

Ergh of course they are...

Hope you feel better soon dude. Look after yourself and speaking from family experience, do what you can and push for tests if you don't feel you're getting answers to see if they can find the root cause.

it's the same as Skins in games. The majority hate them but the minority that spend, create value that far exceeds the concern of even a few losses in sales

I just hope it legitimately gives Nvidia a run for its money. The increase of price beyond inflation and the reduction of performance in each series is just taking the absolute p**s now.

Overclockers are essentially first party scalpers at this point. Based on all the reviews I've watched, to pay £1200+ for a 5080 is madness and although the 5090 does appear to be a beast, it shouldn't cost that much. The 5080 almost feels like it exists just to convince people to spend an...

I loved my 600T back in the day. What a case! Edit: did not mean to necro this thread, it came up as a suggestion after a new thread I was reading. Whoops!

Looks like a cool product, we now just need MoBo and case manufacturers to come up with a standardised fix for GPU sag. These things weigh so much now

I have a fairly senior role in marketing and even as a marketeer I hate this s**t. We should be comparing apples to apples, not counting "fake" frames and calling it a performance boost. Especially when it comes at a small jump in latency as well. Sure the game might appear smoother, but it's...

This is exactly it. Yes the overriding of Affiliate tracking links is a little shady, but let's not pretend these youtubers weren't paid a fee to advertise the extension. Besides, if you want to support a YouTuber specifically then add the item to your basket. Run Honey to get the code and...
