    News Lies, Bribery, and Manipulation: Nvidia doesn't give a ****

    Oh this goes deeper than just the 5060 thing - just watched the GN one. It's a pity that this is the situation.

    Graphic Cards Used GPU from Apro Rigs

    I didn't end up purchasing from them. Google Street view showed a shady building. Also the deals seemed too good to be true. So I passed on them. Unless you know someone who can personally go there and see for themselves, I'd strongly advise against buying from them.

    FS: Games [FS] Ghost of Tsushima Directors Cut PS4 + Last of Us Part 1 PS5

    @Toad As a general rule here, for stuff like this -> you DM the main seller. Don't crap on other's sale thread. You posting your opinion on a renting vs owning debate is counter productive to a person selling a game they actually own.

    News NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Is 2x Faster Than 4080 At $999, RTX 5070 Ti 2x Faster Than 4070 Ti At $769, RTX 5070 Faster Than 4090 For $549

    And generally speaking, is it a good idea to pick up 5000 series at any price given the issues with melting power connectors? Genuinely curious... For such an expensive buy, isn't that a huge single point of failure?

    Ordered my cooler & thermal paste from them. Both came separately but other than that, it was a smooth experience.

    For an extreme RW person, a moderate would look like LW. For an extreme LW person, a moderate would look like a fascist. To a fanboy, genuine critique of a company & its products will look like hate.

    As long as we are guessing, I don't think 5080 will stay that high. Supers will hopefully bring about a substantial price cut. iirc 5080 is priced ~30% higher than 5070ti officially (official - yes, lol i know). and 9070xt (which delivers ~5070ti performance) is expected to stabilize at ~65k...

    FS: Monitor and LCD [Giveaway] old HCL monitor with lines

    What's included? - Monitor - Power supple cable About the monitor: 47cm TFT LCD monitor. Only has a VGA connection. Works fine but as you can see display has lines on it. Could work as a testing monitor in case you're into that stuff. Not looking to ship obviously.
