In case of 4080 super then, I think you will have to upgrade your PSU for sure. It alone can pull 320W and you have a good cpu that can you can overclock (I would def do instead otherwise what is the point of buying K-series CPU) so thats north of 120W and if you take in account of transient...

How were you able to order from a chinese seller at ebay? Just placed the order and wait ? time taken and customs charges ?

1440 or 4k? Lots of difference between them. For 1440p, just put in a 12 (preferably 16 gb vram) card and you'll be fine. I am using RX6800 with old i5 6600K with a 600PSU and I am getting same FPS in AAA as if I were using a modern CPU like 7800x3D : here is my post on this...

Actually, oculink can provide 64 gbps bandwidth which is double than that of TB3/4. (oculink boardneeds to PCIE 4.0 for that) I am also attracted to eGPU because I want the discrete GPU to be separate for reduced noise, heat and weight. TB3/4 being proprietary requiring special chip but oculink...

I have setup exp GDC beast with the mPCIE connector a few years ago. Worked well but the backplate of the laptop is always open. Now we have graceful options where we can connect the eGPU to the Laptop or MiniPC through TB4/Oculink port without removing the backplate. I am currently trying to...

I have both ends of the spectrum. The concrete ones I built during pandemic. Since the density is lower than metal so by the time I reached 12 kgs per dumbell, it was quite wide. Weather proof but cant drop them. And I have the Nuobells (by Cockatoo) 20 kg pair as well. Costed me 24k total...

1080? I think it was a typo by someone. I just had a 1080 Ti - was just showing its age with a couple of UE5 titles Alan wake 2 and Hellblade 2. Got a good deaal with Rx 6800 locally - nearly 2x perf with same power usage. But love the 1080Ti, I think I'm gonna keep it - may use it in a egpu...

1080 Ti represent! I had two Arctic P12 slims feeding her fresh air in my sff case. Temps below 75C at full load. Story based AAA titles. 1440p. Anywhere between 60-120 fps I'm happy. The 11 gb vram in the 1080 Ti served me well at that resolution. Barring modern UE5 titles like Senua...

Yeah, as of now nothing in the background when I am gaming. I'll keep an eye out for 1% lows and hope Hardware Unboxed are correct when they say AMD gpus when paired with older CPUs actually give better 1% lows as they dont offload scheduling to CPU like nvidia GPU does.

Noted and ya true! I have not been facing any issue in getting the GPU usage to >98% in the benchmarks and games I have tried so far. Yes, as of now didnt see any stutters as of now but will keep this in mind. I have read about AMD GPUs being more forgiving to older CPUs as they dont offload...

Thanks to all to help me decide what should I upgrade. Got a local deal of 25k for a 2 year old RX 6800 reference, so took it. I then thought of analysing how much performance I would be losing by pairing this strong card with an ancient quad core i5 6600K. I used this RX 6800 benchmark in...

NP, i have replied to the same questions in earlier in this thread, have a look at first page comments.

Poco F1 is the Aswathama !! Just a few disagreements from a couple of points: Getting the battery have been very easy for the F1 and the replacement even easier as the backplate is not glued. I have replace the battery around 4 times earlier (once per year or 2 years and two devices) from...

This is my old Fractal Node 202 build, weights 6.5 kgs for reference if it helps. Pcpartpicker build

Especially as a SFF enthusiast with a Node 202, love the performance they are able to give at 65W and the temps are amazing. However, it is also true that x3d chips are like 1080ti for the AMD, they created a monster for themselves. Hope Intel can come back and provide good competition and...

Oh yes, I stand corrected. NR200 is 3-4 litres smaller in volume. I wonder how is Fractal terra priced in India, if I had to go with sfx psu and itx mb then would have gone with terra probably, if it were cheaper.

Challenging but doable with some used parts. I would use SAMA 01 or Zen woodan as they are smaller in volume than NR200. Also, NR200 demands ITX Mobo & SFX PSU that are very expensive. In the former cases, you can get away with ATX PSU and mATX MB, and pairing that with a used card (preferably...

Metamask is quite popular as well and a good option for a software wallet. and Eventually hardware wallet in the future. I would stay away for wazirx as of now because of the hack. There are many other exchanges in India that you can try such as bitbns, coindcx etx. I'm quite sure you'll have...

They do allow withdrawals. Not any limits as far as I know. As far as self custody, I would highly recommend a hardware wallet like Nano ledger. If you want to first try out a software wallet to practice, then Exodus is a good one. But hardware is always better especially if you have a lot of...

Sorry to hear. I can understand as I have a Gigabyte laptop bought from outside and with "international warranty". Well as expected Gigabyte India never honored it. Its a risk buying cheaper from outside - its a call many of us would make tbh. As for the patches on android phones introducing...
