Well it turns out it was a dud (scam) regarding the R9 5950X. Excuses from the seller not getting it shipped and not answering my messages etc. So I called his number this morning, but no answer. However 15min later he transferred the payment back to me.... so next time I'll look for that cpu...

I do a bit of video/picture editing on hobby basis, and 8cores/16threads in these circumstances is just a bit too time consuming. I also thanked yes to the 5950X, so it will probably be here Monday/Tuesday.

Thanks for sharing your points of view

I have a Ryzen 9 3950X that is 3years old now and I am wondering if upgrading to a Ryzen 9 5950X would be a benefit, especially since I have swapped my RTX 2080Ti SLi out for a single RX 7900 XTX. I have been offered a 5950X (used of course) to £259 and my 3950X I have been offered £175 for, so...

Got my ASRock Radeon RX 7900 XTX Phantom Gaming OC installed today

Edit. Double post.

Indeed I agree. Ebay I'm only using to buy certain things, but selling I do most in person or some local marketplace groups.

Great to get a point of view from a fellow Dane. Yes the days of paying in excess of 5000DKK for a graphics card are also over for me, the saved money I can find to be better used elsewhere. I also don't see prices here get better anytime soon. I had hoped to see 7900XT closer to 5000DKK also...

Yea, ebay prices are insane, and the site is flooded with cards that keeps relisting since they aren't sold.

Yea that is what I am thinking too. The used market prices here in Denmark are not that high, since people are keeping their hardware longer, and there aren't that many buyers willing to pay what the current market dictates, so sometimes cards are sold under asking prices since, else there are...

Thanks for sharing your thought. I'm on the same page as you. I game at 1440p on at 165Hz and I am fine with high/highest details. Ultra is for me just for making screenshots. Raytracing is also mediocre still. I think I'm going for the bundle with the RX 6950 XT since I could sell the 1TB NVMe...

Unfortunately I don't think they would cover the cost of a RX 7900XT, I see RTX 2080Ti selling between £250~270, so at best they might bring in £500‐550. But yes it would still cover the cost. Driver support wise I don't think there would be any difference, there hasn't been for many years with...

That is right, but I am not really sold on ray tracing, i think the visual fidelity is still quite mediocre compared to the general performance loss. So normal rasterisation is what i look at. However, the question to me is the 7900 XT worth the extra £170 in pure performance for today (not...

Since multi-GPU setup hardly get any love these days in new games and in the drivers, I am looking at parting with my trusty old RTX 2080Ti NvLink setup and just settle for a single card.... something that falls me a bit difficult since i've been an avid SLi user since the days of 3Dfx.... but...

My cards through the past 30 years or so. (Doubles meaning i had more of the same card at the same time) 1. S3 Trio64+ 2MB 2. ATi Rage IIC+ 8MB 3. Techworks Voodoo 1 4MB PCI 4. Guillemot Maxi Gamer 3D2 Voodoo 2 SLI 12MB PCI 5. Guillemot Maxi Gamer 3D2 Voodoo 2 12MB PCI (In SLi wth the above) 6...

Got my Ryzen 9 5900X yesterday and it was a nice improvement over my older Ryzen 9 3900X. Approximately a 19~23% performance uplift in the games (cpu bound titles) and applications I tested in. However after the pc was in storage for almost 2 years I've discovered the CMOS battery is almost...

Yea I am pretty happy I held out just a bit and the deal appeared. I'm using a Corsair H100X 240mm AIO with Noctua NF-A12x25 fans and it does a good job of cooling... I had a 3950X (this one went into my main rig) in there briefly and temps were fine.

The 5700X definitely is a solid choice and it also would have been the CPU I had opted for and purchased from new, if it wasn't for the deal I got on the 5900X.

I was ready to purchase a new Ryzen 7 5700X for £161 (5800X was £184), but a person I purchased some used hardware from before reached out to me that he had a R9 5900X he would be selling. So I went that route. A new 5800X3D/5900X costs the same here, approximately £400, so in that regard some...

I was fortunate to find a used Ryzen 9 5900X for €240/£207. It should be here Tuesday
