I don't use it, the huge performance hit isn't worth it for better reflections and lighting. I'd rather render at native and not use upscaling.
The main purpose of it was to create a reason for people to upgrade imo. Raster performance got so good needed something else. Then you also need...
RTX is snake oil in my view, slightly better reflections and shadows for 50% performance hit. RTX Just invented to keep selling GPUs because reaching point of diminishing returns for rasterisation. Little point in upgrading. Nvidia and AMD don't want that.
Hardware unbox point this out, which...
Just wait till next year I guess. No stock so prices are ridiculous now.
It's really not surprising given there is plenty of 5 series stock to clear first. Guess AMD have prioritised the consoles for now.
Complacency, it's as simple as that. Fairly normal thing to happen in the business and technology world. Companies don't stay on top forever, see 3dfx and Nokia.
I am pretty hopeful AMD will try to get market share after Christmas, they only have 20% or so. They will likely wait for old stock...
I reckon there will be a GPU price war next year. Should be loads of supply once Christmas is done and it makes sense for AMD to go for market share since they're at 20%.
Both Nvidia and AMD also have lots of prior gen stock in the channel to shift first as well.
I would try to isolate the issue, try rx480 in different machine as mentioned above, swap in your old cpu and try find which component or combination is causing it.
Not exactly sure how seasonic ocp protection works. If that is what is causing the problem.
I had similar OCP shutdown issue...
If system is shutting off totally and you have to toggle the switch on the PSU to get it going again, could well be OCP or some other protection kicking in on the PSU.
Draw could be too high on that rail or transient power spike, though your model of Seasonic PSU shouldn't be effected by that...
Presumably that is because there is still lots of 5000 series stock around and they want to clear it before they release any new cards in those prices ranges.
Same reason as Nvidia not having any 30xx stock available anywhere?
Once the peak season is over and old stock is gone I reckon we...
There should be loads of stock of rdna 2, it's same process as they're using already but more mature. Obviously q4 is high demand period though.
By mid q1 next year I wouldn't be surprised to see an attritional battle for market share by AMD against Nvidia and prices could come down a fair bit...
TSMC 7nm, it's a mature process and yields should therefore be very good. Will be interesting to see how much Navi 21 stock is available even with the consoles.
Fairly good chance there's loads of stock available I think, very good opportunity for AMD to gain market share maybe? Plus all the...
3080 only really shines at 4K or higher resolution. Improvement from 1080ti or 2080+ at lower resolutions was always going to be marginal. Is due to parallelism of the architecture. If you're able to test Tarkov at higher resolutions you'll probably see the FPS will only drop a tiny amount from...
Just wait until Big Navi and the consoles are released ?
Nvidia's strategy has been totally transparent... ?
Get the cards to market first and get hype built up, restrict supply of 30xx, so 20xx still actually sell because retailers still have lots of old stock to shift.
Next part of it will...
Yes funny that...
It's almost like it would be bad for Nvidia and retailers if they made all 20xx stock near worthless by releasing a massively superior product at half the price of 2080ti, in volume for everyone, before the consoles who presumably they think they're competing with even come out?
Nvidia must think they're competing with the new consoles for mainstream 4K gamers, hence the 3080 price being much lower than the 2080ti and the 3070 even rumoured seemingly likely faster than 2080ti and only £499 . Or why not make the 3080 more expensive?
Everywhere must also have mountains...
Not sure why people would be that upset if have any credit card, just pay on said credit card and section 75 of the consumer credit act to the rescue if anything goes wrong.
Cards are only guaranteed to run at specified boost clocks around 1.71-1.75ghz anyway, which they will definitely be stable at, so even if it is the caps causing crash to desktop due to boost past 2ghz, drivers can simply reduce the boost <2Ghz and no problem other than reviews not matching real...
Reviews indicated these cards run at their power limit all the time, so overclocking the core is not effective as no power headroom to work with? Memory overclock might be possible though.
