    Replacement for GTX 1060

    Seems a toss up between a 6700 10gb or a 3060 12gb if I spend £350. Really wondering if its worth spending that much, or where the best bang for buck is in the current GPU ranges.

    Need to upgrade my Nvidia GTX 1060 3GB, now that GPU stocks are better and I have some upgrade funds. Price between £250 to £350. AMD or Nvidia. Got to do 2k at least, doesn't matter about 4k because my eyesight is bad enough not to really be able to tell the difference. I am old, shoot me...

    5800x started to overheat

    Just tried replacing thermal paste. No change. On bios idle, temps just keep on marching up till temp alarm. Don't get why the out cooler pipe wouldn't be hotter though if its not pumping. Shouldn't it be heated from the heat sink connection up? First AIO so just going from normal water pumps...

    AMD Zen 3 (5000 Series), rumored 17% IPC gain.

    I am currently waiting with a dying PC to upgrade. Any idea when stock of mobos and CPUs will be available? End of next month or sooner? I don't follow release formats so don't have a clue. I know launch is around the 8th November.

    Motherboard failing so need to upgrade.

    Thanks Guys, I will hope my Mobo keeps soldiering on and wait for the Zen 3. I wasn't aware of the release before I looked here and almost pulled the trigger on a new cpu/mobo without looking. As usual, this forum is great.

Only happens once or twice a week or so and its been like this for a year so I can wait a few weeks. Tried everything thinking it might be a...
