You'll like it. I have same gpu paired with 7800x3d. My kids have been playing the Avatar game on 4k OLED and I've never seen a game look that ridiculous. Good kit.

Unfortunately, the drivers aren't compatible with the version of Linux I run, so it's going back to Newegg. I'll likely be picking up a RTX 4080 instead unless the 4090s make it down below $2k in the next couple weeks.

Once I have the new one I'll have a red devil rx 6900 XT Ultimate for sale for $800 if anyone might be interested. Never used for mining, has seen light use aside from benchmarking.

I used to be a big PC gamer for most of my life, but haven't really turned on my much in the last 2 years. Kinda correlates to when I started growing and when a coworker/friend who I gamed with passed away.

But about 6 months ago I randomly bought a new motherboard board and CPU that have just sat in the boxes since... last week 4090FE's were in stock at Best Buy and I decided to press the purchase button after debating it in my cart for 20 minutes or so... Thinking I could contemplate it more before I pick it up, and could always cancel. I picked it up yesterday... So looks like I need to rebuild my PC this weekend.

I'm a SFF case guy, and my current system is a 9700K, 3090FE in a Formd T1 SFF PC case. Hopefully this weekend it will be a 13400 and a 4090FE.. then I'll probably try the new version of Ark - I enjoy building bases in games. I really didn't need a new GPU, but I have a Samsung G9 Neo 49" 5,120 x 1,440 resolution monitor and want to be able to max out graphics settings and still get high fps.

I got a nice commission check from work a couple weeks ago and decided I needed to upgrade my like 7 year old PC. It actually still plays some games, but even several year old games have to be set to absolute minimum graphics settings & it still struggles. After looking through some PCs and seeing the prices I decided to try my hand at building my own. Which is something I've never done before, so it was a bit intimidating spending about $1000 on parts and hoping I can successfully assemble it. So here's what I ended up with.

Intel Core i5-10600K 4.1 GHz 6-Core

MSI MPG Z490 GAMING PLUS ATX LGA1200

Silicon Power GAMING 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16

TEAMGROUP MP33 1 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 3.0 X4 NVME SSD

Corsair RM750e (2023) 750 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX

MSI RTX 3060 Ventus 3X 12G OC GeForce RTX 3060 12GB 12 GB

Fractal Design Pop Air RGB ATX Mid Tower

Build went together about as smoothly as I could have hoped for. However when I went to boot I wasn't getting a signal to my monitor. After playing around with some things I was able to get it to boot through the integrated GPU on the MOBO if I disconnected power to the GPU. Then I installed Windows and drivers for the MOBO & CPU and then it recognized the GPU & everything started working.

Was really proud of myself for working through the problem because that was basically my nightmare scenario when deciding to build this thing. Anyway, here's the complete build. Runs all the games I was playing on my old machine soo much better, haven't had a chance to really run any modern games on it yet, but no matter what it's a huge improvement.

Fresh box is always nice. I've built almost all the computers I've owned so I know how frustrating it can be when it doesn't boot up on first try. Nice Rig!!!

So I haven't really gamed in the last 4 years and I've been feeling an urge to grab a PC or Laptop to play some of the old games I grew up on. Long story short, Rollercoaster Tycoon Classic in the android store is scratching that nostalgic itch very well. Same exact game for the most part and, with the S23 ultra's stylus, it's exceptionally easy to play.

Figured I'd throw that out there.

I've been playing Stalker 2 a bit on the weekends and I dig it.

Haven’t touched a game in a while. Was using sons steamdeck to play “7 days to die” for a while, just solo as no internet. I get into building things and try to last as long as I can without dying.
