I just cant get my head around how someone will spend £1700 on a GPU then complain about a £35 cable , on a gpu costing significantly less then would agree some may complain about the extra outlay but if your happy to spend £1700+ an extra cable isnt going to break the bank
My block just arrived in the UKI just cant get my head around how someone will spend £1700 on a GPU then complain about a £35 cable , on a gpu costing significantly less then would agree some may complain about the extra outlay but if your happy to spend £1700+ an extra cable isnt going to break the bank
If they do decide to change the spec again then no problem as im sure who ever i eventually sell my 4090 to will be happy to have the nicer cable with it .... and as for the EK waterblock i am desperate to get my hands on one
I mean you could spend 1700 on credit and still be broke as hell.I just cant get my head around how someone will spend £1700 on a GPU then complain about a £35 cable , on a gpu costing significantly less then would agree some may complain about the extra outlay but if your happy to spend £1700+ an extra cable isnt going to break the bank

to be completely frank with you for me the GPU loses its novelty in 1 month, people's brains are wired differently - thats where the value equation comes in..I just cant get my head around how someone will spend £1700 on a GPU then complain about a £35 cable , on a gpu costing significantly less then would agree some may complain about the extra outlay but if your happy to spend £1700+ an extra cable isnt going to break the bank

I wish Cablemod would make cables for Super Flower PSU'sI know I can buy the extension cables but it always makes cable management difficult
Ask to up the balance by £35 to buy a new cable
Lucky man , I assume for the FE ? I'm still waiting for them to announce a block for the zotac cardsMy block just arrived in the UK
If a gpu loses its novelty after 1 month then maybe buying a £1700 gpu is not the best move ... personally I had a 3090 strix before this and enjoyed playing on it for 2 years solid , novelty certainly didn't wear off but then I enjoy playing games and a good gpu makes it that bit more enjoyable for me but as you say each to their own
I never said you can't comment at all , I simply asked if you had a 4090 and have you experienced any issues with it which I would have been interested to know if you were having issues with the plug . Has anyone on here who has got a 4090 had an issue with the plug melting?You spectacularly miss the point imo.
I dont have a 4090 or need one for my gaming needs. I can still comment on stuff.
What an idiot I am, I never even looked at the configurator. Always just went by the cables they offer on the main sections of their shop! Thank you!
That's a pretty good comparison to be fair. Basically if you're on 5 series (5600x and above) you're good to go but if still on 2 or 3 series you'll need to look at making an upgrade for massive gains. Also nice to see this illustrated in 4k too.
because cablemod are blatant profiteering of people they think are gullible idiots.I just cant get my head around how someone will spend £1700 on a GPU then complain about a £35 cable , on a gpu costing significantly less then would agree some may complain about the extra outlay but if your happy to spend £1700+ an extra cable isnt going to break the bank
exactly, I was always going to get a custom one regardless.
Cablemod are a business so they are in it to make profit or should they give everything away for free ? £25 for a cable that psu manufacturers sell for £20 ( corsair ) i wouldn't exactly call that profiteering but if that's what you see it as so be it .
Or you could put it on your mortgage and if the rates average 5% for the next 25 years it will save you £4000 in interest plus the extra £1700 paid off on the mortgage!
That's exactly what I'm doing, I just ordered the Lian li PCIE 3.0 vertical mount for my O11 XL, I already have a PCIE 4.0 cable from Cablemod which I'll switch over and that mount takes a 3 slot GPU then wait for the Vertex GX.
it is not 57 euro , its 25 euro plus delivery so £35ish all in , the 3x8pin will supply 600w.
Wonder at what position an i7-8700k at 5Ghz would be in that list of AMD cpu's
I wish it was mate, I tried the Global store and the EU store via the configurator it's either 60 US dollars or 57 Euros all in.
Between the 5600X and 3600X i'd say. I have a i7 7700K @ 4.5Ghz and in some benchmarks i'm about 20% fps down on a 5800X3D/4090 at 4k. But i game at higher than 4k so the gap is less.
